Dong Chengbin stepped forward, the sea breeze blew by, and the loose robe revealed his thin figure.
The blue robe was very close to the color of the sky and looked very refreshing, but his bitter face did not match it very well.
He smiled and said, "Are you two making fun of me again? I'm not in the mood for teasing."
Lu Qingtang curled his lips and said, "You are so beautiful. I'm going to see the child. You two can chat."
As she said this, she stood up and naturally made free time for Mo Zeshen and Dong Chengbin. However, she also silently prayed for Dong Chengbin in her heart, hoping that Mo Zeshen would not look down on Dong Chengbin.
Sure enough, after she left, Mo Zeshen's face began to darken.
He said to Dong Chengbin impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Dong Chengbin turned around and looked around, then stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, this is coming from the palace."
As he spoke, Dong Chengbin took out a wrapped paper tube about an inch high from his sleeve.
Mo Zeshen took the paper tube expressionlessly and unfolded it. The color of the paper was bright yellow. This was from Emperor Kang Yuan. He subconsciously sat up straight and out of instinct, looked at the words above with a pious expression.
Soon, paleness covered his entire face, and Mo Zeshen suddenly sneered, even his fingers trembling.
Dong Chengbin looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong, Your Majesty, what happened?"
Mo Zeshen raised his head and looked at him, and said coldly: "It's okay. You go and do your work first. I'll sit by myself for a while."
Dong Chengbin retreated in response, and after walking to the cabin, he sneered, with a cold light in his eyes.
He knew the content of the note. Emperor Kang Yuan asked Mo Zeshen to desperately try his best to label King Zhennan as a rebel, regardless of whether he had rebelled or not.
Everyone knew Mo Zeshen's code of conduct. He would never eradicate a vassal king with great military exploits. If he wanted to reduce the vassal state, there would be bloodshed. These were money and food. Emperor Kang Yuan did not want to waste money on reducing the vassal state, so he had to Mo Zeshen was used.
He knew that Mo Zeshen still had Lu Qingtang in his heart, so he gave him hope that after he found out the case, he would allow Lu Qingtang to return to him and no longer pursue the past. Mo Zeshen would definitely agree, so he came to Nanzhou and fell into Emperor Kang Yuan's trap. After he arrived in Nanzhou, he gave him a death order and used Lu Qingtang as a threat to force Mo Zeshen to eradicate King Zhennan and achieve the purpose of reducing the vassal vassal.
Dong Chengbin came up with this idea for His Majesty, and His Majesty agreed immediately, and he wanted to watch the two of them fall in love with each other. He wanted Mo Ze to deeply feel the pain of losing his wife so that he could feel his misfortune.
…
"What? You still want to tempt me!"
Lu Qingtang never expected that Mo Zeshen would be so persistent. What kind of magic power did Ji Wuhen have in him?
Since returning from the cruise yesterday, Mo Zeshen seemed to be a completely different person. He locked himself in his room and did not come out until noon the next day.
In the past two days, he had always been awkward and refused to eat. He had lost a lot of weight. He didn't know what kind of monster he was acting. Now he wanted to test Ji Wuhen again and asked Lu Qingtang to help him.
Of course she refused.
"Why? If you know it's him, just take him down. Why bother? They're not my relatives anyway. Just hack them to death one by one!"
Lu Qingtang said as he picked up the teacup and took a long sip, then turned his face towards the direction where the three babies were playing.
Mo Zeshen, who was opposite him, immediately had his eyes shining, "Really?"
Lu Qingtang: "..."
She cleared her throat and whispered: "Are you confused? All of this is obviously someone trying to frame King Zhennan. Can't you really see it? Or are you also an accomplice?"
She looked at him questioningly, and Mo Zeshen turned his face away from her with a guilty conscience.
He lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes resting on his eyelids. It took him a long time before he spoke, "If I really accidentally kill Zhennan Wang's family, do you think I will have retribution?"
"Yes..." Lu Qingtang said, "Or not, none of this is important. What is important is that you must be worthy of your own conscience. When you wake up from your dream at midnight, will you see the ghosts in the house crying in your ears? , King Zhennan, King Zhenbei, they are all just victims of the imperial power. As for life and death, it all depends on whether you, those in power, have compassion, and it has nothing to do with me."
She once again stated to Mo Zeshen that she had nothing to do with the affairs of Zhennan Palace, and she was even less capable of taking care of them.
She could also see these days that Mo Zeshen was very worried about dealing with King Zhennan, and he needed someone to support him. Lu Qingtang didn't know what Emperor Kang Yuan was thinking. He only knew that Mo Zeshen must be in a difficult situation about this matter. He might also know that Ji Wuhen was framed, but as a chess piece, he could only let Emperor Kang Yuan control it.
Mo Ze smiled deeply and asked her, "If it were you, would you violate your conscience?"
Lu Qingtang shook his head without thinking, and listened to him continue to speak, "If you had to choose between your conscience and the person or thing you consider most precious, which one would you choose?"
Lu Qingtang was stunned, "Why do you have to choose this way? Is it necessary?"
Mo Zeshen just nodded, his dark eyes showing a little tiredness, "If you and the person you love the most are never able to be together in this life, will you still choose conscience?"
She looked at his solemn look and was immediately stumped by this problem.
The most precious...
She turned to look at the three babies who were smiling even more happily. Aren't these the most precious things to her? If she had to choose between her babies and her conscience, she would choose her own baby without hesitation.
Even if she is reviled by the world, she will not change her mind.
But what is the most precious thing about Mo Zeshen?
His eyes were as gentle as water at this moment, and there was no tension at all when he was jealous. Whether he is jealous or gentle, he still cares about himself after all. Is he the most precious person in his mouth?
Thinking of this, Lu Qingtang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Emperor Kang Yuan was threatening him with her?
Otherwise, why would he be so entangled and worried that he couldn't eat or sleep well?
If that's the case, wouldn't he become a stumbling block for him?
Lu Qingtang clenched his white knuckles and looked up at Mo Zeshen, "I choose my conscience!"
Mo Zeshen was also looking at her. After hearing this, his eyes were full of ridicule, as if he was very dissatisfied with the answer.
"If the person I care about also cares about me, he will definitely support my choice." Lu Qingtang continued to look at Mo Zeshen and said, "Care is mutual. If you care about him, she will also care about you, not one person and one person." It's not fair to bear everything. If we are not together, we are not together. As long as we know that each other is still alive, nothing else matters."
After speaking, Lu Qingtang's eyes began to turn red.
She didn't know what happened, but when she made this decision, her heart suddenly hurt, as if she had been pricked by a needle.
