Jun Lintian looked at the sword coming towards him, gathered his spiritual power in his hand to control it, Murong Ning's expression turned cold, he withdrew his sword and launched another attack, Jun Lintian frowned when he saw this and quickly spoke.
"Second Princess of Western Jin, wait... wait a minute, I am..."
Upon hearing a somewhat familiar voice, Murong Ning was slightly taken aback, but the sword in her hand did not stop.
"Who do you think you are, entering my room so late at night? You must be a lecherous scoundrel."
Jun Lintian was speechless for a moment. He had only come to find out the truth, but he had forgotten that she was a woman!
Seeing that Murong Ning's moves were becoming increasingly ruthless and giving him no chance to speak, Jun Lintian exuded the pressure of a Spirit King. Murong Ning's eyes widened, and in a moment of distraction, the sword in his hand fell into Jun Lintian's hand.
"you······"
"So what if he's the King of Ling? You lecherous scoundrel, return this sword to me!"
Jun Lintian tossed the sword in his hand over, and casually pulled off his mask. "Second Princess of Western Jin, this Crown Prince did not mean to intrude. I came because..."
"Jun Lintian, it's you again!"
Upon hearing this, Murong Ning realized what was happening and was immediately enraged. She hadn't even settled the score with him for the last time he had roughly thrown her into the haystack, and now he dared to break into her boudoir in the middle of the night.
"Your Highness, what are you doing here at this late hour instead of sleeping?" Murong Ning asked irritably.
"I have something to discuss with you now, something concerning you and, more importantly, the relationship between our two countries."
Jun Lintian got straight to the point.
Murong Ning lowered her eyes, recalling the time when the Third Prince secretly came to see her brothers. Although she didn't know what they were plotting, the news of the Third Prince's rebellion and her brother's sudden abandonment of Cangyue made her roughly realize the connection.
After the defeat of the Western Jin Dynasty at Jialan, the third sister was sent to marry a foreign prince. However, there was no need for a princess to marry a foreign prince between the Western Jin Dynasty and Cangyue. But the emperor still brought up the matter with his father.
Now that the only person she could marry is dead, and her brother has abandoned her and returned to the Western Jin Dynasty, she is now like a joke.
She couldn't possibly let her become the emperor's concubine. Thinking of this, Murong Ning felt disheartened.
"Go ahead and ask."
Murong Ning spoke, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes.
"How much do you know about Jun Linyu and your imperial brother?"
As Jun Lintian spoke, his eyes were fixed on Murong Ning, not missing a single emotion in her eyes, but he was disappointed. In her eyes, there was endless loneliness and a little helplessness.
“I don’t know anything, but the Third Prince did come to see my brother a few days ago.”
"Besides that, has Jun Linyu ever appeared in the Western Jin Dynasty?"
"I don't know, Jun Lintian. I am not your prisoner. Don't look at me with that scrutinizing gaze!"
(Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and all the best.)
