C5 You'll understand it later on

This "illness" lasted for three days. During these three days, every time Qing'er wanted to get close to Yan Ling, she was stopped by Li — using all kinds of reasons that were hard to refuse. Qing then secretly saw Yan Ling drinking medicine at the door and reported it to the Qianxin Courtyard.

Of course, she didn't know that the medicine had been replaced with brown sugar water.

"Miss, the Crown Prince has sent an invitation."

Taking the gilded invitation from Li Li, Yan Ling raised his eyebrows in thought.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"This afternoon, there will be a poetry gathering at the Spring Festival Gala in the Spring Mountain," she said as she fiddled with the post in her hand. "If I recover, I will definitely go."

Hearing this, Li Jun wrinkled her brows and snorted: "The young miss is still sick, so she won't go."

Turning his head to look out the window at the bright sunlight, Yan Ling stretched his back and leaned comfortably on the low couch.

"I've already made my decision. If I don't go, my sister will definitely come again to help the third prince invite me."

"Then go!"

Seeing Li Yi's quick manner of refuting, Yan Ling laughed in a good mood, "If I were to go, the Third Prince would go to the poetry meet no matter what."

"Ah?" "Then what should we do …" Li Li frowned her face as she was at a loss for words.

To the poetry meet, of course.

She had to let Liang Yi know how much the crown prince admired her and how much her words were worth. At the same time, he also had to let Liang Yi know that she would not go to the crown prince's appointment with him. In her heart, the crown prince's position was higher than his.

This way, she would have a reason to reject him. From then on, Liang Yi could no longer have any delusions of using her!

"Of course, the crown prince is more honorable."

Yan Ling smiled and reached for the hat he had prepared. In her previous life, she went to the poetry meet to help Liang Yi conquer the crown prince's heart, but this time was different.

Noon, Spring Hill.

There were many different kinds of talented individuals with jade crowns and silver ribbons. The crown prince's warm figure was exceptionally eye-catching. Yan Ling was sitting in a corner when he heard someone approaching.

Liang Yi, who was wearing a moon-white robe, glanced at Yan Ling, who was wearing a veil covering his face, and walked over with a elegant wave of his folding fan.

The crown prince did not reveal his identity. After the interesting opening, Yan Ling sat up straight and waited for him to start the topic.

Logically speaking, he would first look at her poem every time she set a question. She was also willing to write well, so after she finished reciting her poem, no one dared to read theirs again.

So it was.

Every time the crown prince finished reading her poem, the admiration in his eyes increased. The strong desire in the third prince's eyes grew stronger as well. Desire wanted to seize her heart and manipulate her to destroy the crown prince!

Yan Ling's heart thumped rapidly. He looked at Liang Yi with a restless look, as if something big was about to happen.

"Clang!"

The sound of a sharp sword piercing through the air suddenly rang out. Seeing Liang Yi's relaxed expression, she immediately started to panic. Could it be that he wanted to murder the crown prince?!

The crowd of amorous celebrities wailed as they dodged. Turning their heads to look at the sword ray that was about to pierce her throat, Yan Ling's eyes widened and he was unable to breathe. Why was this assassin targeting her?!

"Miss!"

Just at that moment, Yan Ling felt as if he was being hugged by someone. He retreated at a speed even faster than Li Li's voice. In the blink of an eye, he had retreated several dozen feet!

"Are you all right?"

Liang He's worried voice came from his side. Yan Ling swallowed his saliva and tried his best to stand straight on his sore legs.

"I'm alright. Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me."

"I invited you here, so I naturally have to take care of you." After Liang He finished speaking, he handed Yan Ling to Li Yi and drew his sword to meet Yan Ling.

As soon as Yan Lingli moved to the side, she raised her head and saw Liang Yi's narrowed eyes staring at her with the gaze of a snake and a scorpion. And he was standing at the exact spot where she had been sitting.

The sound of swords clashing could be heard. The crown prince was surrounded and unable to come out. He didn't bring any guards?!

Just as her attention was diverted away from Liang He, the glass beside her was suddenly pushed away by the black-clothed man. The sharp blade quickly stabbed towards Yan Ling's neck!

"Be careful, Miss Yan!"

Ah!

Even though she had lived a whole life, she had never experienced such a scene. She immediately cried out in alarm and suppressed Liang He's cries.

A white figure descended like a god, swiftly repelling the black clothed man. It held her as it spun and spun before landing leisurely on the ground …

At the same time, all the black-clothed people retreated. Liang He sheathed his sword and quickly rushed over.

Liang Yi looked passionately at Yan Ling and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Li Yi who was at the side curled her lips in dissatisfaction as she held the curtain cap that had fallen off in her panic.

How could she not know what Li Yi was able to discover? At that moment, he did not look too happy. He pursed his lips and said, "Nothing happened," before struggling to free his arm.

"This group of criminals came here for various reasons. I'm afraid their goal is not simple," The Crown Prince held his sword tightly as he carefully observed his surroundings. "Third brother, you protect Miss Yan. I'll go take a look at the people attending the meeting."

Yan Ling could only think of the thrilling scene of him being surrounded by a group of people. Subconsciously, he pulled Liang He who was about to leave and asked nervously, "Are you injured?"

After she finished speaking, she was stunned. Liang He was also stunned.

"I'm fine." Liang He smiled at her and patted her hand before turning to leave.

Only when Li Li had put on the curtain and the hat did she realize that Liang Yi had not made any movements.

Yan Lingfu pursed his lips and then his lips. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my life."

After sending Yan Shuang out of the courtyard and Qing'er out to give her thanks, Yan Ling heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the low couch to rest.

Li Yi who was at the side angrily scolded: "What Third Prince, you're just a small fry! There's no need to use such despicable means to obtain the young miss's heart! "

Seeing her young miss not saying a word, Li Yi quickly stood in front of her and said angrily: "Those assassins that he called over were all just to show her a hero saving the beauty, do you really think that no one can see them? And when the crown prince asked the third prince to send you back, was it because the young miss didn't thank him that he wasn't prepared to send the young miss home? "

Yan Ling quietly looked at the water in his teacup, causing Li Yi to slowly calm down. That's right, she was already so angry, let alone the young miss inside!

"..." Miss, don't be angry, we were never hurt. "

How could she not be angry when someone was trying to achieve their goal by disregarding her life?

"There are some things you should say in front of me. When you are outside, you must remember to keep quiet and not utter a single word."

Seeing her serious look, Li Li nodded. He then heard her say, "He has a stubborn personality, it's only right for him to do this. Do you still want him to be as virtuous as the crown prince?"

"Such a ruthless person cannot be the Emperor."

When Li Jun heard this, she was shocked and immediately raised her head to look at Yan Ling.

"Miss …"

A light breeze blew over, jolting Yan Ling awake from his stupor. He looked at the worried Li Li and gave a faint sigh.

"You will understand in the future."
