Ruan Xiaonuan simply did not know what he was thinking about right now. She thought that since Yun Che hated him as much as she did, he would directly call him "Hero". This way of addressing him made Lin Zian's face darken once again, but this time, this person had been excited and did not find anything amiss.

"Are you and Prince Yu really incompatible?" When her mouth was dry, he asked.

Ruan Xiaonuan nodded without any hesitation. Ever since she had come here, everything bad had happened because of him. If not for him, she would still be an empress in a harem with a beautiful man. How could she be a prisoner of war without freedom? She deeply sighed and said to him,

"Brave warrior, although I admire your courage, Gu Junxiu is not someone to be trifled with. I'll help you find some medicinal ingredients, you should leave as soon as possible." After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Lin Zian's words and carefully left the room.

At the moment, Gu Junxiu's face was slightly flickering in the main hall under the light of the candle flame. He was like a statue as he sat there. His brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something. When the guards outside walked in and saw him, they were shocked by his appearance. This was because he was often wearing a mask. When he first saw his face, he didn't dare to look straight at it. He lowered his head and said …

"Your Highness, we didn't find anyone."

Gu Junxiu only glanced at him nonchalantly, showing no signs of being angry. On the dark path, there was a small figure sticking her head out as if she was afraid of something. Seeing that there was no one around, she quickly walked forward. However, before he could take more than a few steps, he bumped into a wall of flesh. She lowered her head and apologized, wanting to leave as soon as possible. But before he could leave, his wrist was grabbed,

"Where are you going so late?"

Only now did she know that the person she had bumped into was actually Gu Junxiu. When he raised his head, there was only a smile left on his face as he looked at her and said,

"So it's Your Highness, it's this servant who is too stupid." Gu Junxiu saw the medicinal ingredients in her hand and asked with a frown.

"Why are you taking so many pills?"

"This servant had the chills, so I went to the Grand Hospital to catch some medicine." Fortunately her brain was working fast, Ruan Xiaonuan rejoiced in his heart. But Gu Junxiu's next sentence caused her to break down, he only looked at her medicine, and casually said.

"Since the wind is cold, why is there such a medicine to stop the bleeding?"

Ruan Xiaonuan's expression now was as if she had choked on something to eat, and completely did not know what to say to cover it up. However, Gu Junxiu did not continue asking and instead asked her to leave.

She walked a few steps and turned around with worry. She saw him standing in the night sky with his white clothes fluttering in the wind. She didn't know why, but she was actually terrified. She tried her best to convince herself that she must be overthinking things. Then, she returned to her living quarters without even looking back. Seeing that Lin Zian was still sitting there, she heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that the other party was injured on his shoulder, he immediately took off his clothes.

For some reason, when Lin Zian saw her face that was so close to his, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Ruan Xiaonuan did not care what he was thinking, as she placed the medicine all over the flesh and blood wounds, and said.

"Take these medicinal herbs and leave immediately." He would soon notice the difference. We'll both be dead. "

Because the matter of her seeing Gu Junxiu earlier, had caused her to feel extremely uneasy. He kept feeling that there was a deeper meaning behind his words, but right now, saving someone was more important. He couldn't care less about anything else. Lin Zian stared at her with his cold eyes and asked.

"We don't know each other, why did you save me?"

"Because I feel that you are a warrior and shouldn't die so easily." She said as a matter of fact, there was no purpose in his words. She just felt that he was someone worthy of her admiration.

"My name is Lin Zian." He didn't know why he told him her name, but he didn't think she was going to hurt him. Ruan Xiaonuan bandaged him up, and after a while, she found out that he was saying his name. She nodded that he understood. Just as she was about to introduce himself, she heard the sound of the imperial guards outside. She was shocked and said anxiously,

"He has already discovered it. What should we do now?" If Gu Junxiu knew that she was helping an assassin, he probably wouldn't let his off. Thinking that he was about to die, she couldn't help but shed tears. Lin Zian coldly looked at her and said.

"What are you crying for? When a man encounters a problem that he doesn't know how to solve, he actually cries. What sort of words are these? " Ruan Xiaonuan cried even harder when she heard his roar. Thinking that she was about to die and had nothing to hide about her identity, she said while crying,

"Actually, I'm not a eunuch at all, I'm just a girl. Anyway, I won't be able to live tonight, so there's no harm in telling you." Lin Zian was rarely so shocked that his eyes were wide open, but when the imperial guards were about to enter, he grabbed Ruan Xiaonuan and said softly, "I'm sorry." He then placed the sword against her neck.

"Hey, what are you doing?" She sensed that she was being held hostage again.

He wanted to struggle free, but because Lin Zian had stopped his bleeding and rested for a long time, his injuries were fine. As a weak girl, she was naturally unable to contend against him. When Gu Junxiu, who was outside, heard her voice, he could not help but increase his pace and rushed in. He looked at Lin Zian and said coldly.

"Is this the so-called morality of you martial artists?" His voice was filled with infinite ridicule.

When Lin Zian saw that there was not a single trace of nervousness on his face, he could not help but start to doubt his previous guess. He happily stabbed his dagger a few more degrees, causing's exquisite neck to immediately be covered in blood. This time, nervousness finally appeared in Gu Junxiu's eyes. He stared intently at his hands and asked.

"Lin Zian, what do you want? Can threatening a senseless eunuch threaten This King? " Lin Zi could not help but laugh out loud.

If he didn't know that this weak little eunuch in front of him was a girl, he might have believed him. However, knowing that this eunuch was hiding a beautiful heart, he knew that he should not be doomed today. Ruan Xiaonuan struggled, but this only made the dagger pierce into her skin even more. She couldn't help but curse as the stinging pain continued to come from her neck.

"You unscrupulous person. I thought you were a brave warrior who spent so much effort to treat your wounds. I didn't expect you to bite Lu Dongbin. A person like you shouldn't have saved you today." Her voice was loud, and many of the people present were listening to her insults.
