"Jinghan is blaming Daddy?" Since he couldn't use righteousness to pressure others, Lin Xiang quickly adjusted his strategy and blamed himself:
"At that time, your mother was pregnant with you and insisted on leaving without leaving any news. I looked for you and your mother for a long time, but there was no news. I just thought that your mother remarried with you. After all, back then, your mother was by your side..." There were many admirers.
However, he did not say this out loud. After all, this kind of colorful thing was not very wonderful to him.
Lin Xiang's words put all the blame on Lin Jinghan's mother. He became the one who was deceived. Lin Jinghan was furious when she heard this. She laughed in anger:
"Oh, Jinghan is so dull. I don't know what kind of situation a woman would be forced into to leave her husband, the father of her child, while pregnant. Prime Minister, could you please explain this to Jinghan?"
Minister Lin was sorely asked and angrily retorted, "What happened back then, regardless of whether it was right or wrong, is not a reason for you to be unfilial!"
Was this anger out of shame? Lin Jinghan didn't want to argue with Lin Xiang anymore, so she grabbed the wheelchair and prepared to leave - she was in a hurry to go home to see Lin Lixuan.
Before Lin Jinghan could put her idea into practice, Sikong Zhan spoke first, "My princess, you can go wherever you want and whenever you want. If anyone has any objections, just come and tell me."
Although he was sitting, the aura around him made people want to retreat.
Soon, he restrained his aura and said softly to Lin Jinghan, "Let's go home." He was so calm and composed, as if the imposing person just now was not him.
Sikong Zhan clearly defended Lin Jinghan, which surprised Prime Minister Lin. He didn't understand why King Jingnan cared so much about this daughter whom he had abandoned.
But Lin Jinghan knew that Sikong Zhan was not protecting her, but Princess Jingnan, or in other words, the dignity of the Jingnan Palace.
Under Lin Xiang's inquiring gaze, the King of Jingnan and his wife gradually walked away...
Since Minister Lin was deliberately making things difficult for her, he would naturally not let Lin Jinghan leave easily.
Soon, rumors spread in the capital that Lin Jinghan was disobedient to her father. Many people were talking about her behind her back. Some even speculated boldly that Princess Jingnan had no background and had offended her only supporter, Prime Minister Lin. It was only a matter of time before she was divorced by Prince Jingnan.
Lin Jinghan didn't know about this, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care. Her only thought now was to meet Lin Lixuan and Lin Dayong, settle them down, and train Lin Lixuan well to fulfill her promise to the original owner.
After leaving the palace, Sikong Zhan did not disappoint Lin Jinghan and took her to Lin Lixuan's settlement, which was next to the Jingnan Palace.
From a distance, I saw the back of a young man in tight clothes, drawing his bow and drawing an arrow. He struggled to shoot the arrow, but because the force was not enough, the arrow did not hit the target at all.
The instructor next to him didn't look surprised at all. He took out an arrow and taught the boy how to shoot arrows step by step.
Lin Jinghan paused and glanced at Sikong Zhan. Seeing that he looked calm, she thought for a moment, then stood there, silently watching the young man practice archery.
The boy shot several more arrows. With the guidance of his instructor, the boy's progress was visible to the naked eye, and he was finally able to hit the target.
"Are you satisfied with what you see?" Sikong Zhan turned to look at Lin Jinghan and asked.
"Xuan'er has been weak since childhood, so it would be great if he could practice martial arts to strengthen his body. Thank you, Your Highness, for your thoughtful arrangement."
After they returned to the palace, they had already agreed that she would accompany him to the palace to perform a play, and he would make all the arrangements for Lin Lixuan. Now it seemed that it was quite appropriate. This deal was not a loss.
When the boy finally finished practicing, Lin Jinghan walked over and called out softly, "Xuan'er."
Hearing the familiar voice, the boy turned around in surprise. Seeing that it was Lin Jinghan, he quickly put down the bow and arrow in his hand, ran to Lin Jinghan, and threw himself into her arms, "Sister!"
Sikong Zhan frowned - a boy of this age, still smelling of sweat, throwing himself into the arms of his princess like this, how disgraceful!
Subconsciously, he was about to carry Lin Lixuan away, but he saw Lin Jinghan reach out and gently pat Lin Lixuan, "Xuan'er, how have you been these days?"
Never mind, the brother and sister finally met, so let them be for once. Sikong Zhan walked aside with a stern face and sat on the stool, leaving space for the brother and sister.
Lin Lixuan let go of Lin Jinghan slightly, his eyes sparkling, "Sister, Xuan'er is doing very well. Not only does he have a special place to live, but he also has a special master to teach him how to read and practice martial arts. Xuan'er is very happy now."
"Very good." Lin Jinghan was very satisfied and asked, "Where's Dad?"
"That prince has assigned Daddy a job. Daddy is currently learning how to manage guards from Steward Wang. He will be back at twilight hour."
This meant that Lin Lixuan and his son knew Sikong Zhan's identity. Didn't he actually hide his identity? Lin Jinghan looked at Sikong Zhan not far away, her eyes full of surprise.
"Lin Dayong used to be a guard of the Prime Minister's Mansion. However, he has neglected martial arts training in recent years and is not qualified to be a guard. If he studies hard, being a captain of the guard should not be a problem." Sikong Zhan explained for the first time.
Lin Lixuan then noticed Sikong Zhan and was shocked by his powerful aura. He hid behind Lin Jinghan and asked with his head tilted, "Sister, who is he?" Is he his brother-in-law?
Lin Jinghan thought a lot. When she saw King Jingnan at Bugui Mountain that day, Lin Lixuan must have been too frightened to notice him and therefore didn't recognize him. So, should she remind him of this?
"I am your sister's husband." Sikong Zhan picked up the teacup and poured himself a drink, looking quite leisurely.
"Sister...brother-in-law..." Lin Lixuan lowered his head and called out, as if to say hello, then retreated back to Lin Jinghan's side and muttered softly, "Sister, brother-in-law's voice sounds so familiar..."
It was this voice that almost cost us our lives. How could it not sound familiar? Lin Jinghan's mouth twitched. After thinking for a while, she finally decided not to tell Lin Lixuan the truth - she was afraid of affecting his beautiful mood.
Sikong Zhan had no intention of explaining. He stood up, walked towards the archery area, picked up the bow and arrow, and quickly shot an arrow.
Bang!
The arrow hit the bull's eye, and the target shattered. The arrow went straight forward and hit the wall behind it. The tail of the arrow vibrated for a long time before finally stopping.
"Amazing!" Lin Lixuan couldn't help but applaud. The doubts that had just arisen disappeared. He let go of Lin Jinghan and excitedly walked towards Sikong Zhan, saying admiringly, "Brother-in-law, you are so amazing! It would be great if I could be as amazing as you!"
