Chapter 693 A Step-by-Step Thrill 65

Lin Jiu gently patted Yin Tang's head—or rather, his half-moon-shaped head would be a more accurate description.

She gently comforted him, "I'm fine, don't worry, I'll take care of everything at the manor!"

However, at this moment, Yinzhen couldn't help but wonder: he felt that his wife's action was exactly the same as when she patted Hongxuan's Shiba Inu, Laifu! (Laifu is a dog, after all.)

Moreover... something about this statement just doesn't sound right.

Several black lines immediately appeared on Yin Tang's forehead. He thought to himself: What does "go with peace of mind" mean? It makes it sound like he's gone and will never return. Good heavens, his wife's comforting words are really sinister.

Thinking about it, Yinzhen gave Lin Jiu a long, meaningful look and said, "Ajiu, you don't need to say such comforting words in the future."

Seeing this, Lin Jiu's eyes darted around, and he suddenly realized that what he had just said might indeed be easy to misunderstand.

So, she gave an awkward smile, quickly grabbed a few delicate and delicious pastries from the table, stuffed them into her purse, and handed them to Yinzhen, saying, "Here, take these snacks with you. If you get hungry along the way, you can eat something to tide you over."

With the purse in his hand, Yinzhen hurriedly left as Lin Jiu watched him go.

After watching Yinzhen walk further and further away until he disappeared from sight, Lin Jiu turned to Zhao Mama standing beside her and said in a deep voice, "Listen up, Mama, immediately pass down the order: from today onwards, no one, no matter who they are, is allowed to leave the manor without my permission. Anyone who violates this rule will be severely punished!"

Upon hearing this, Granny Zhao's expression changed slightly, but she quickly recovered and respectfully replied, "Yes, Your Highness! This old servant will go and convey your decree immediately." After saying that, she hurriedly left to carry out the order.

In fact, the entire Prince Fu's Mansion had always been under Lin Jiu's strict control.

Now that she has issued such a prohibition, it is as if she has given everyone a tranquilizer, making everyone in the mansion, whether masters or servants, obedient and law-abiding.

Everyone stayed obediently in their own little world, and no one dared to cross the line.

Moreover, at Lin Jiu's request, they deliberately kept the mansion gates tightly closed, as if it were isolated from the world.

After making these arrangements, Lin Jiu slowly raised her head, her gaze fixed on the towering imperial palace in the distance. She couldn't help but think to herself, "The world is about to change..."

-

Inside the palace, a solemn and dignified scene came into view.

Yinzhen rushed over anxiously. When he arrived at Qianqing Palace, he immediately saw the scene in front of him: apart from the eldest, second and thirteenth princes who were imprisoned, all the other princes had arrived.

Upon seeing this, Yinzhen's heart skipped a beat—something serious had indeed happened!

"Ninth Brother, you've finally arrived!" The Tenth Prince, Yinzhen, was overjoyed to see Yinzhen's figure in the distance. He hurried forward and whispered in his ear.

However, Yinzhen simply shook his head slightly, while signaling with his eyes that the other party should not say anything more.

At this moment, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and the slightest carelessness could lead to trouble.

Moreover, with everyone gathered here now, it's a situation where things are about to escalate. If one were to speak rashly at this moment, wouldn't that be asking for trouble and making one the target of everyone's criticism?

Although Yinzhen was called the "Tenth Prince of the Wise," he was not truly a fool and naturally understood the implications.

So he immediately shut his mouth and stopped saying anything.
