Chapter 9 It's time to prove yourself



A fat carp jumped out of the lake, splashing the crystal clear water, which glowed alluringly under the moonlight.

Seeing this bizarre scene, Jun Anqing was stunned. He clapped his chubby hands and said to Lin Zhan, "How did you do that? It's amazing."

"This grass has a natural attraction to fish, and it can also make fish dizzy, so isn't it easier to catch them? Go catch some fish!"

Lin Zan also became interested and followed Jun Anqing to catch fish, and soon caught several fish.

"If you help me catch fish, I will treat you to fish. Come on!" Jun Anqing excitedly carried the fish and came behind a rockery.

At this moment, a grilled fish rack has been placed behind the rockery. Lin Zhan was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but admire it. The power of a foodie is indeed incomparably strong!

"This is the seasoning and iron rack that I asked the little monkey to bring me. They are perfect for grilling fish." Jun Anqing patted his chest proudly.

Seeing how familiar he was with this, Lin Zan believed that this was not the first time he had done such a thing.

Since he was already here, he might as well make the best of it. Lin Zan simply chose a stone to sit on, and then looked at Jun Anqing who was grilling fish with tenderness in his eyes.

In her previous life, in order to avenge her sister, Lin Zan tried her best to win over various forces. Only the Fourth Prince, who was broad-minded and straightforward, always stood by her side.

Even at the end, when the Fourth Prince knew that Lin Zan was lying to him, he never gave up on her.

Lin Zhan let you down in the last life, so let me make it up to you in this life!

Lin Zan thought secretly in her heart. After all, when she was reading the book, the Fourth Prince Jun Anqing was also a thorn in her heart.

"What are you doing?" Just as Jun Anqing was grilling fish and Lin Zhan was lost in thought, a voice with a hint of frosty voice rang out.

Jun Beiqi walked around the rockery and saw the scene in front of him.

Jun Anqing, who was grilling fish, was so scared that the iron rack in his hand almost fell to the ground. Lin Zan looked at Jun Beiqi who suddenly appeared in a daze.

"Hehe, you have caught my eldest brother. You must not tell father. I will share one of the fish with you." Jun Anqing scratched his head embarrassedly with a simple and straightforward smile on his face.

Jun Beiqi's eyes fell on Lin Zhan. "Why are you here too?"

Before Lin Zan could say anything, Jun Anqing answered for her quickly.

"My aunt caught the fish for me, so naturally I have to give her one." The silly Jun Anqing has already determined Lin Zan's identity.

Hearing the name "Auntie" and thinking that he was only six years old, Lin Zhan got goose bumps all over his body and shook his head quickly. "Don't call me Auntie, just call me by my name, Lin Zhan."

"Oh, okay then, Lin Zan." Jun Anqing nodded in agreement.

Jun Beiqi didn't say anything else. He walked over, picked up the largest stone, lifted his robe and sat down. He was a head taller than both of them.

"Deal." After waiting for a moment, Jun Beiqi uttered two words coldly.

Later, Lin Zan realized that Jun Beiqi had agreed to let Jun Anqing use a fish in exchange for a chance to keep a secret.

With people watching, Jun Anqing became more excited when grilling fish.

Soon, a delicious fish was grilled, and Jun Anqing gave the first fish to Lin Zan.

This surprised Lin Zan a little, but she still thanked him and took it. However, she didn't expect that this ordinary grilled fish would amaze her.

"It's so delicious. Fourth Prince, I didn't know you grilled fish so well." Lin Zhan said with shining eyes.

Jun Anqing, who was grilling fish, was praised, and the smile on his face became even brighter under the light of the fire. "You are the first person who praised me for grilling fish well. I will grill it for you anytime you want in the future."

The proud little expression on his face seemed like it was about to overflow in the next second.

Lin Zan chuckled and nodded in agreement. The smooth and beautiful interaction between the two of them made Jun Beiqi, who was sitting next to them, feel uncomfortable.

Jun Beiqi also picked up a fish from the grill, and then Jun Anqing looked at him expectantly while he ate his grilled fish, hoping to get positive comments.

For a moment, it seemed as if even the air around them had become quiet.

After Jun Beiqi took a bite of the grilled fish, his expression didn't change much, he just said lightly, "It's barely edible."

These words instantly dimmed the light in Jun Anqing's eyes.

Lin Zhan quickly said, "It's okay, I think it's delicious."

Just these simple words made Jun Anqing happy again, and he happily went to grill fish for the two of them.

It would be wonderful if the Fourth Prince could live happily like this forever. But this time, I will definitely protect your happiness and let you live without worries until you grow old!

Lin Zhan swore silently in his heart, but he didn't know that Jun Beiqi heard every word of his thoughts.

Jun Beiqi lost his appetite in an instant. He snorted coldly, threw the grilled fish aside, and left with Lin Zhan.

"What is the prince doing?" Lin Zan held the grilled fish in one hand and looked at Jun Beiqi with a puzzled expression.

Jun Beiqi stopped and turned to look at her. "Don't think that I don't know what you are up to. I don't know why you are so deliberately approaching the Fourth Prince, but I warn you to stay away from him."

"Prince, please rest assured that I will never harm the Fourth Prince." Lin Zhan raised his hand and swore with a serious face.

Jun Beiqi felt even more suffocated. Even when he was stunned, Lin Zhan shook off his hand and went back behind the rockery.

After a while, the sound of two people laughing and talking came from behind the rockery, which made the expression on Jun Beiqi's face even darker.

After eating the grilled fish with satisfaction, Lin Zhan returned to Hanfang Pavilion, took out the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" left by the dean today, and began to study it carefully.

Seeing her young lady working so hard, Bixia felt a little bitter.

If the Queen was still alive, the young lady's position in the palace would not be so embarrassing and difficult, and she would not have to work so hard.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed, and the full moon banquet for Princess Silin, born to Empress Zhang, was held in the palace as scheduled.

Lin Zhan said with a confident look in his eyes, "It's time to prove myself."

As long as Jun Beiqi recites that poem at the full moon flower-viewing banquet, the emperor will definitely take him seriously. At that time, the prince will completely join his camp.

Lin Zhan was happy to change his clothes and brought Bixia to the flower-viewing banquet.

But I didn’t expect that before I could appreciate the flower, I saw a white lotus.

In the crowded flower-viewing banquet, Lin Zhan only saw a girl in white clothes with a skin whiter than snow.

The girl had black hair draped over her shoulders, with a few unique white pearl petal headdresses adorning her head. She had graceful willow-shaped eyebrows, clear phoenix eyes, fair skin, and charming cherry lips.

She is Si Xueyi.
