The eldest prince is now extremely panicked.
He originally wanted to maintain a good image in front of Li Yunxin.
But now Jun Lintian's words completely disrupted his plans.
Li Yunxin is not a person who hates evil, but he is particularly concerned about things like betraying friends.
It can be said that what the eldest prince had done before completely stepped on Li Yunxin's minefield.
"Yun Xin, please listen to my explanation."
Although the eldest prince looked embarrassed, he continued to speak: "Don't listen to Jun Lintian's nonsense."
"I do want Zhou Lie to help me do something, but it's definitely not to kill Jun Lintian."
The eldest prince felt more confident when he said this. After all, he really didn't want to kill Jun Lintian. He just wanted Zhou Lie to help him vent his anger.
So, he pointed at Jun Lintian and said angrily: "Besides, Zhou Lie and him have always had a grudge. Jun Lintian slapped Zhou Lie in the face at the Xuanyuan Auction that day."
"Brother Zhou Lie is a person who cares about his reputation. How could he tolerate being slapped in public?"
"Even if he wants to seek revenge on Jun Lintian, it has nothing to do with me."
The eldest prince is now in a hurry to distance himself from Zhou Lie, fearing that Li Yunxin will be prejudiced against him because of this matter.
In fact, he now has a clear understanding of the situation.
With his identity and status as the eldest prince, it is still very difficult to accomplish certain things, so he must win over certain help.
And Prime Minister Li Yongning is the best choice.
As prime minister, Li Yongning held a very high status in the Xuanwu Dynasty and held great power.
In addition, Prime Minister Li had previously wanted to marry Li Yunxin to Xuan Fei, so the two parties already had a certain connection.
After all, the eldest prince was not willing to give up Li Yunxin at all.
Whether out of love for Li Yunxin or out of political considerations, he was unwilling to do so.
At least he would never be willing to let his beloved woman marry that bastard Jun Lintian.
Jun Lintian said sarcastically at this moment: "On the day of the Xuanyuan Auction, when Zhou Lie came out to provoke this young master, your eldest prince was hiding in the dark."
"Do you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you?"
"Otherwise, why are you hiding in the shadows?"
After he said this, Li Yunxin next to him also looked at the eldest prince with a puzzled look.
The eldest prince's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
This was what puzzled him the most. Logically speaking, after he used the Hidden God Jade Pendant, even a master at the Saint King level would find it difficult to discover him.
Jun Lintian's cultivation level is only at Dao Palace level. How could he discover himself so easily?
"My Lord, how do you explain this?"
Jun Lintian didn't say anything else. Instead, Li Yunxin next to him frowned and asked the eldest prince.
And there was clearly a hint of contempt in her eyes.
What she despises most is those who hide in the dark. If there is anything going on, can't she just do it openly herself?
He even has to take risks with his own people.
Jun Lintian actually likes Li Yunxin's personality. At least, this girl is very honest.
The eldest prince hesitated and said, "This prince... had not yet checked the situation clearly. If I showed up rashly, I would only attract the attention of those passers-by."
"In that case, why would this prince appear in such a hurry?"
However, Jun Lintian said, "But after you entered the Xuanyuan Auction, you whispered to Zhou Lie that you wanted to target me."
"You still want to snatch the things that this young master took pictures of, don't you?"
The eldest prince's expression changed instantly, and he subconsciously asked, "Did you hear that?"
But soon, he realized that he shouldn't have said that, and quickly covered his mouth. But Li Yunxin next to him was already looking at him with extreme contempt.
"My Lord, I never thought you were such a person."
"It's fine if you're doing something behind someone's back, but you actually want to steal the things that someone else has bought. Do you still have any self-awareness as a prince?"
"Or are you a sinister villain?"
"I..." When the eldest prince heard these words, he felt his face turn red and white.
He couldn't even think of any words to use to argue.
All I could say awkwardly was, "I, I'm not!"
The eldest prince seemed to realize that he had lost face in front of the woman he loved most, and for a moment, he was burning with anger.
At the same time, a pair of eyes filled with murderous intent stared at Jun Lintian.
"Shameless scum!"
"You are deceiving a woman here, what a skill!"
“If you have the ability…”
The eldest prince stopped talking here.
He originally wanted to duel Jun Lintian, but then he thought of the death of Marquis Zhongyong that day.
His own cultivation is not even as good as that of Marquis Zhongyong, so how could he possibly defeat Jun Lintian.
When he thought of this, the embarrassment on the eldest prince's face became more and more intense.
I didn't know what to say for a long time.
Jun Lintian, however, sneered coldly: "What did this young master do?"
"Cheating a woman? Haha, justice is in the hearts of the people."
"Since I came to Xuanwu City, I have been trying to resolve the dispute between the two countries and prevent the war from starting again."
"Instead, you have repeatedly caused trouble for me. Do you really want the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Xuanwu Empire to go to war?"
Li Yunxin beside him even said: "Prince, if you really have the awareness of being a prince."
"Then you should find a way to stop the war between the two countries, for the sake of the people of the world, think about the people of Xuanwu Country."
"I'm really disappointed in you!"
After finishing speaking, Li Yunxin turned his head away in disappointment and was about to leave.
But she subconsciously turned her gaze to Jun Lintian again, as if she was waiting for him.
Even she herself didn't know why she did this.
It must be some strange coincidence...
Li Yunxin's pretty face turned slightly red. She had almost no thoughts in her mind and compared the eldest prince with Jun Lintian.
In terms of cultivation, Jun Lintian is far superior to the eldest prince.
In terms of character and ability, the eldest prince is naturally not as good as Jun Lintian.
At least Jun Lintian is always open and aboveboard in everything he does. He never beats around the bush, and certainly never does anything behind people's backs.
But what about the eldest prince?
He is even capable of doing such a thing as secretly robbing people of their belongings. He is a prince, but he is no different from those thugs in the market.
His mind drifted to this point, and Li Yunxin couldn't help but look towards Jun Lintian's eyes again.
Jun Lintian happened to turn around and met her eyes.
"Miss Yunxin, let's go. There's no point in talking to someone like this."
"Hmm..." Li Yunxin blushed and nodded shyly. (End of this chapter)
