How to say it! He is very handsome, with the appearance of a gentleman, but he has a pair of peach blossom eyes, a strong nose, and thin lips.

People always say that men with thin lips are the most heartless, but these are all on the same face, yet they are very harmonious and beautiful.

"Girl, you've been staring at me for so long. Do you think my appearance has caught your eye?"

The frivolous tone sounded again.

Lin Yuxin also really looked at the man, and no longer felt as shocked by the man's appearance as she did at first sight.

She looked him up and down with a calm expression, but said:

"No, I just think you look so alluring, I'm afraid not only women like you, men will also love you!"

The man in front of him, who looked like a gentleman just now, turned as dark as the bottom of a pot when he heard Lin Yuxin's words.

Is it really that easy to deceive people with lies? Why doesn't this woman sound like she's complimenting me?

Qiu Jingfan felt that all the self-cultivation he had gained in the past twenty years was completely destroyed at this moment because of the stimulation given by this woman.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Is this how the girl treats her savior?"

"Oh, that's not the case. I will repay your life-saving favor with all my heart. But although you just saved me and I thanked you, you just insulted me with your words. We are talking nonsense."

"Now that we've talked about this, there's no need to be grateful or not. Okay, it's all right. Let's go back to our own homes and find our own mothers!"

Lin Yuxin looked at the man with a sullen face, raised her eyebrows and said.

At the end, she simply waved her hand, turned around and left, without even giving him a chance to say anything.

Qiu Jingfan was left standing there, looking at Lin Yuxin's back, gritting his teeth.

"Boy, do you want me to bring her back?"

At this time, a person appeared beside Yang Fan and asked in a low voice.

"Don't act rashly. We are here to investigate the true situation of Ning County. Don't make trouble."

Qiu Jingfan shook his head and said.

"yes!"

The subordinate bowed his head and replied.

Qiu Jingfan came all the way from Zhao State just to investigate the matter in Ning County.

He had received news before that the drought in the northern city of Xia Kingdom could be solved so easily because of this Ning County.

Although spies later reported that it was Li Xiaochen's achievement, this Ningjun was an arrogant and domineering person and it was impossible for him to have such a great ability.

However, Qiu Jingfan did not believe these rumors, so he decided to come and investigate in person.

He had been to Jibei City before coming to the capital, and the changes there were not at all like the rumors said, that the people were suffering.

Not only did the people not suffer from post-disaster panic or hunger, but they lived and worked in peace and contentment.

What surprised him the most was that Northern Xinjiang did not intervene at all, nor did it do anything shady.

He had received news before that Northern Frontier was planning to join forces with the third prince of Xia Kingdom this time to make the emperor of Xia Kingdom busy for a while and create some chaos, but the result was much ado about nothing.

This made him very confused.

He also went to the newly opened commercial street in Jibei City, which was as prosperous as the capital of his Zhao State!

Qiu Jingfan was extremely shocked. Is Xia Country developing so rapidly?

However, he did hear some strange things. Few people in Jibei City mentioned Li Xiaochen, and some did not even know Li Xiaochen, the Regent.

The one they praised the most was Ningjun, although they also praised her for being beautiful, kind, capable, and friendly to the people.

But when Qiu Jingfan wanted to ask about the specific situation, the people would look him up and down with strange eyes, then retreat defensively and not say another word to him.

Qiu Jingfan knew there was nothing to ask, so he left Jibei City overnight and headed for the capital.

He knew that the biggest problem lay with this Ning County.

Therefore, the purpose of his coming to Beijing this time was to find out the truth about Ning County so that he could be prepared in advance.

Although Zhao State did not have the wildness of Qi State, they did not want Xia State to grow stronger and suppress them.

Moreover, in the initial contact with the Ning County, the county was not as arrogant and domineering as the spies reported! This shows that the rumor must be false.

Yang Fan looked at the direction where Lin Yuxin left, with a smile on his face. There is still a long way to go!

…

As soon as Lin Yuxin walked to the gate of the mansion, she met Li Xiaochen who was rushing over.

“Xinxin!”

Li Xiaochen dismounted from his horse, strode over and called out softly.

"Why are you here? Have you finished your work in the palace?"

Lin Yuxin thought that he would have to be trapped in the palace for a few more days. After all, Cheng Tinghao had been recognized and there would definitely be a lot of things to happen.

"I haven't seen Xinxin for a few days. I'm afraid you've forgotten me, so I asked the emperor for a few days off."

Li Xiaochen said it with full of confidence.

Lin Yuxin pursed her lips and chuckled after hearing this. It seems that this man has taken a long leave, right?

Given the emperor's determination, at this critical juncture, there must be something fishy if he doesn't call the emperor to justice!

"Okay! Come in and sit down?"

Lin Yuxin laughed enough and looked up and asked.

"Xinxin, would you please go to the palace with me?"

Li Xiaochen asked in a low voice.

Going to Zhao's house would be inconvenient since Lin's mother is at home. It would be more convenient to take Xinxin back to the palace so that we can do anything.

"Why? How troublesome is it to go to the palace now? You have to take a detour. Now that you are here, why don't you come in and sit for a while?"

Lin Yuxin didn't have as many little thoughts as Li Xiaochen, she just thought it was too troublesome!

It's already past noon. If I take the carriage to the palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay for long before I have to eat dinner. It's too lazy to waste time.

Seeing that his little idea had not come true, Li Xiaochen nodded helplessly and followed Lin Yuxin into the Zhao Mansion.

When Zhao Hanya heard that her daughter had brought the prince back, she hurried to greet him. Although the two had not yet been married, Li Xiaochen was the prince and etiquette could not be abandoned.

"I, a commoner, come to see the prince!"

Zhao Hanya hurriedly saluted Li Xiaochen who walked in.

"No need to be polite, Mr. Lin! Please stand up quickly."

Seeing this, Li Xiaochen hurried forward to help Zhao Hanya up.

Zhao Hanya just went along with it. She just had to be polite, but she couldn't be too humble, otherwise it would embarrass Xinxin. Zhao Hanya got this point right.

"Please take a seat, my Lord!"

Zhao Hanya invited Li Xiaochen to sit down and chat, and asked the servants to serve him tea. Lin Yuxin watched this series of processes from the side, and suddenly she regretted not going to the palace.

At her house, with her mother around, there were too many rules. Not only did Li Xiaochen have to follow them, but she couldn't say anything either! Her mother also had to run around.

"Mother, please sit down and let's chat for a while! The prince will be back soon."

Lin Yuxin pulled Zhao Hanya, who was busy running around, and said.

"Yes! Please sit down, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you."

Li Xiaochen also spoke to Zhao Hanya to persuade her.

Zhao Hanya sat down and asked:

"I wonder what the prince wants to say?"

"I have already mentioned the marriage between me and Xinxin to the emperor today, and the emperor has also agreed to let the Qintian Observatory choose an auspicious date. Today, I came here to tell everyone about this matter. I estimate that the emperor will issue an order in the next two days."

Li Xiaochen now started talking about business in a serious manner.
