Lin Qingge's voice became hoarse at the end.
Before today, she might still have a vague feeling about the strange court, but what she saw and heard in the palace just now changed her perception.
Emperor Zhou was not a soft-hearted emperor. He could kill his own son at will, let alone a minister?
During the whole process, if Chu Nanfeng made any mistakes and was discovered, he would definitely die without a burial!
Now she suddenly understood why Zhou Chenghan really poisoned herself. This was to make herself completely invisible.
Chu Nanfeng watched the changes on her face, reached out to hold her hand, put it in his palm and played with it carefully. His low voice was very calm, without any waves.
"This matter has been planned for so long, and it's time to close the net. They have been famous for too long, and they have forgotten that the people whose blood they have sucked are still waiting for them below."
There was an indifferent smile on the corner of his lips, but there was a deep undercurrent between his eyebrows.
Although she couldn't see clearly, she vaguely heard something: "Not only did Concubine An kill King Qi's biological mother, but she was also involved with the Chu family?"
"Before Concubine An entered the palace, she wanted to marry my father."
"Is it funny?"
Facing Chu Nanfeng's dark eyes, Lin Qingge lowered his head.
Didn't she ruin the atmosphere here? She just couldn't help it. Do the people in the An family like to steal other people's people?
The key is that Concubine An once wanted to rob her father-in-law, and Concubine An's sister An Yao robbed her father-in-law, although in the end Lin Shuquan was not her father.
But are the sisters from the An family quarreling with her?
She raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows: "My parents have a deep relationship with each other, so naturally they will not be bewitched by her. Later, after she entered the palace and was honored and favored, she shouldn't remember things like the past, right?"
As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. If you don't keep your past feelings deep in your heart, you will die. Concubine An Gui doesn't understand such a simple truth.
He nodded slightly and continued: "My parents thought the same way, but it turned out that she first planned to kill Chenghan's biological mother, and my mother was affected to have a miscarriage. Not long after, my father died in the battlefield, and she followed him."
"Mother and King Qin's mother..."
"They are close friends."
In this way, the relationship between Chu Nanfeng and Zhou Chenghan can be regarded as a relationship between generations.
but……
Lin Qingge frowned and asked uncertainly: "My father's matter has nothing to do with Concubine An, right?"
"She is having an affair with a foreign enemy."
"Telling away information? This is a guest. You must report it immediately!"
Once she told Emperor Zhou, even if Concubine An was the reincarnation of the nine-tailed fox demon Su Daji, she would only be beheaded.
Chu Nanfeng shook his head gently, with a hint of coldness between his brows and eyes: "The current evidence is not enough to identify her, so we can only slowly let them walk into the designed trap step by step. She will know how to do it on her own." If you admit it, I will sacrifice the souls of the thousands of soldiers who died in vain in northern Xinjiang!"
She really didn't know that there was such a thing in it.
Now she understood why Chu Nanfeng was so rude to Concubine An. She had an old grudge.
After digesting all the things that happened today, she suddenly thought of the thing that made her most uneasy.
"I believe that there will be no problem with the plan you and King Qin made together. But the emperor's reaction today shows that he knows that there is something wrong with my birth date. I am afraid that he also has some thoughts that he shouldn't have."
In history, how many emperors stole other people's wives?
Some people covet beauty, and some are afraid of prophecies.
No matter what it is, if the emperor cares about him, he has no qualifications to fight.
"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to mess around." Chu Nanfeng's words were indifferent, but he was very arrogant. He held her hand a little harder, "Back then, my father trusted him too much, so he would risk everything to conquer the border. North. But in the end he was ambushed and he stayed behind closed doors. Now, I won’t do anything like that again.”
Why is the emperor afraid of his ministers?
No matter how loud the official voice is, the person's head falls to the ground and the tea cools down.
Military generals are different. They hold military power and tens of thousands of troops. With a wave of their arms, the whole country will be in chaos.
Without complete assurance, even the emperor would not dare to go head-to-head with the general who holds military power.
Lin Qingge understood all the truth, but she felt uneasy in her heart, always feeling that they had no future.
Panic made her reach out and grab his shirt, pressing her fearful face against his chest: "Chu Nanfeng, I'm a little scared."
His hand gently stroked her back: "Don't worry, he is just guessing now. Zhou Chengzhang will not admit it, there are no survivors in the Lin family, and your horoscope is the horoscope on the marriage certificate with me."
Can this really be hidden from Emperor Zhou?
His reaction today showed that he had obviously noticed Zhou Chengzhang's actions.
Keeping silent all this time is just to see how much trouble things can get, and even to reap the benefits.
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She buried her face in his chest and said in a muffled voice: "If a war is caused because of me alone, I will have uneasy conscience."
"One day, it will be caused by his greed. Don't worry, it won't happen. I won't give him the chance to implement it."
He said it decisively, and he did it later.
But none of them thought that things like people's hearts are so unpredictable.
…
In the next few days, Lin Qingge felt very anxious, fearing that Emperor Zhou would send some incomprehensible orders.
As a result, the day was very peaceful, as if he just said it casually and didn't take it to heart at all about her horoscope.
On the other hand, the story that Zhou Chengzhang and the Liu family united to try to force Lin Qingge to threaten Chu Nanfeng to hand over military power and force the palace spread all over the city.
When the matter got so big, Liu Yun was naturally sent to Dali Temple. Even the Liu family and his wife went to Dali Temple from Jingzhao Mansion.
Only Liu Qing was temporarily safe because of the Chu family's efforts.
Lin Qingge recalled the bloody piece of cloth and the scars all over Liu Qing's body, and decided to go to Liu's house to take a look.
Coming back again, the feeling was different from any time before.
What made her feel the biggest change was Liu Qing. The little girl she once was seemed to have grown up suddenly.
Even though there was only one girl around her age, she still served tea to the guests in an orderly manner.
However, in the huge Liu Mansion, there were only two of them, master and servant, and it felt dilapidated. The front hall was so cold that people shivered.
"The young madam came to visit unexpectedly, and I had nothing to prepare for it. I could only ask the young madam to drink some hot tea." Liu Qing acted like a little adult, and behaved in a moderate manner.
Lin Qingge didn't know whether she was lamenting or feeling sad in her heart. She said straight to the point: "The Liu family is on the same level as me now. I'm afraid your behavior that day will be rejected by them. Do you want to consider becoming my sister?"
