Yan Ling's words seemed to have really had an effect, and Nan Yan returned to normal after that, as if nothing was wrong.
Yan Ling had told Li Yi not to ask Nan Yan any more questions. Under the tacit understanding of a group of people, this matter was quickly forgotten by everyone.
It was another sunny day. Yan Ling was invited by Liang He, and the two of them planned to go out for a walk together. After all, they had not had such a peaceful time for a long time.
The trip to the lake was interrupted by the third prince, and he accidentally fell into the lake. Then came the palace banquet and Bai Yiyi's death. One link after another left them both confused.
Now that these things have finally come to an end, the two of them naturally want to enjoy this rare and beautiful time together. After all, no one can predict what will happen in the future, but judging from the current situation, I am afraid it will not be peaceful.
Yan Ling led the people around him and went out in a happy mood, but he didn't notice that someone was watching them secretly. As long as they left the house from somewhere else, they didn't know where they went.
On the grass in the suburbs, a man and a woman were sitting on a tall, snow-white horse, walking leisurely on the path.
Yan Ling raised his head and looked at the sun, which was not too high yet. He stretched out in Liang He's arms and suddenly felt very comfortable.
Nan Yan, Li Yi, and Qing Yu followed from a distance, paying careful attention to their side, but not disturbing such a beautiful scenery.
In fact, under normal circumstances, Nan Yan would not follow him, but because of what happened a few days ago, Yan Ling could tell that although Nan Yan had behaved normally, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
It was precisely because of this that Yan Ling specifically asked Li Yi to take Nan Yan with her when she came out today.
"Do you think this kind of time is rare?" Yan Ling suddenly tilted his head, raised his neck slightly, and looked at Liang He and asked.
"There will be opportunities in the future, when everything settles down." Liang He naturally understood what Yan Ling was thinking, so he touched her head and said comfortingly.
"I hope that's the case." It was rare for Yan Ling to relax like this, so he naturally wouldn't think too much about disturbing things.
Soon it was noon, and the sun was scorching. Since I came out to play casually and had no preparation in advance, I could only seek some shade in the woods on the side.
Although it was not as comfortable as being surrounded by a group of people, it was still enjoyable and free, with a strange sense of ease. Liang He and Yan Ling were both very satisfied.
"You take Yintong over there first, and I'll wash my face in the stream in front." Yan Ling said to Liang He in front of a dense forest.
"Okay, then be careful and don't slip. And don't drink the water there. I brought clean water." Liang He instructed.
While Yan Ling smiled, he pretended to be disgusted and said, "Okay, okay, I know everything. I'm not a child. Your majesty, the Crown Prince, has almost turned into a housekeeper."
Liang He was pushed away by Yan Ling helplessly, shook his head and walked towards the forest without caring.
The grass in the suburbs is rich and the water is clear. Yintong drank a lot of water during the walk and his stomach was half full. Now he saves a lot of trouble.
Yan Ling smiled as he watched Liang He lead Yintong away, and then he walked towards the stream. Li Yi and Qing Yu originally said they were going to help, but Yan Ling smiled and sent them to rest, leaving Nan Yan alone who didn't know where he went.
Yan Ling came to the stream alone. The water was sparkling with ripples in the sunlight, shining like the scales of a fish, and winding like silk into the distance, which made people feel happy at first sight.
Picking up a handful of water, Yan Ling gently patted his somewhat red face, then dipped a handkerchief in water and gently wiped his neck and forehead, feeling a chill immediately.
The refreshing feeling made Yan Ling sigh, and then Yan Ling heard some footsteps, like the sound of a man walking.
At first, Yan Ling thought it was Liang He who was worried about him, so he came over again, with a smile on his face involuntarily. However, soon, the smile on Yan Ling's face faded.
After Mu Qingqiu's continuous conditioning during this period, Yan Ling is now more alert and alert. She could tell that the footsteps were coming from more than one person, and they seemed to be deliberately hiding them.
No matter how dull Yan Ling is, he can still detect that these people are coming with bad intentions.
Although he had experienced many assassinations, Yan Ling had never escaped unscathed based on his own ability. Now that Liang He and the others were not around, Yan Ling was at a loss for a moment.
Past experience only allowed Yan Ling to pretend not to notice them until now, and to think of a solution calmly as if nothing had happened.
But in fact, Yan Ling was already panicking. If someone were there, they should be able to see Yan Ling's shadow reflected in the water, and his pale face could be clearly seen.
Just when Yan Ling was at a loss, a person suddenly appeared in front of her, which made her eyes shine. Nan Yan.
Yan Ling turned his head and found that Nan Yan seemed to have noticed what was going on here and was lying on the grass waving to Yan Ling.
Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Yan Ling made a quick decision. On the surface, he pretended that nothing had happened and was just strolling around, and walked towards Nan Yan. In fact, he was already nervous in his heart.
There was a small slope on the other side of Nan Yan. After Yan Ling passed by, Nan Yan immediately pulled Yan Ling down.
"You go find His Highness the Crown Prince, I will block him from here." Nan Yan's expression was solemn.
Unlike Yan Ling who could only hear the footsteps and judge that the other party was going to be detrimental to him. Nan Yan was here just now and saw the three people more intuitively.
Each of them holds a knife in their hand, and you can tell by their steps that they have been practiced. Judging from their posture, it seemed that they were planning to take Yan Ling's life directly.
"No, it's too dangerous for you to be here alone." Yan Ling refused subconsciously. Although she knew that Nan Yan had practiced martial arts since childhood, in Yan Ling's eyes, Nan Yan was still a child after all.
"They will chase the target soon after the target disappears. The two of us can't escape together. You can't help here. If you don't want me to die, go find someone." Nan Yan frowned and said, in this kind of situation Shi Nanyan's performance was really surprising.
Yan Ling was stunned. She was not an irrational fool for the sake of feelings. She knew very well that what Nan Yan said was the truth. Yan Ling understood that staying here would only be a burden and Nan Yan would have to be distracted to take care of himself.
In this case, Yan Ling did not hesitate anymore, but seriously said: "Be careful!"
After that, Yan Ling quickly ran towards where Liang He and the others were just now. At this time, Yan Ling felt that he could hear it more clearly, and there was the faint sound of Nan Yan fighting with the assassin.
Yan Ling was a little worried, but he didn't dare to look back, so he had to run forward as hard as he could, for fear that if it was a little later, Nan Yan would die because of him.
