Her beautiful eyes were full of contempt.
From the corners of his eyes to the tips of his eyebrows, he was filled with disdain, and his whole person seemed to be in a state of ridicule.
Zhou Chenghan seemed to be completely unaware of her emotions. There was still a faint smile on his handsome face. He was neither too close to make people bored nor too distant to give people a feeling of superiority.
The noble master's well-controlled smile made Lin Qingge even think for a second whether his attitude was too much.
He looked at her and smiled faintly: "Don't worry, I'm not that crazy. I just feel that he doesn't force his thoughts on you now, he just doesn't want you to be together. Maybe you keep your distance and don't see each other for a while. OK."
"Heh, what's the difference between that and being away from each other directly?" She sneered.
"Of course there is a difference. One day, you can go back."
She stared blankly at the man with a gentle smile in front of her, but she felt as if she had met him for the first time. She had no idea why he would say that.
He didn't take it seriously at all, but continued: "When he dies, who else in the world will trouble you?"
Emperor Zhou is dead, and no matter who the new emperor is, he needs Chu Nanfeng to stand firm in the court and control the entire court situation.
And during this process, if the other party had even the slightest thought about Lin Qingge, Chu Nanfeng would slap him to death without any effort.
It sounds like a very simple matter, but this problem is no longer something Lin Qingge has to worry about.
She held the tea cup with her fingers: "Your Majesty, you should know very well how your Majesty's physical condition is. Ten or eight years..."
"He can only live for a year at most, not longer."
The extremely cold words made Lin Qingge unable to speak for a while.
His face was very calm, and his tone was even more calm: "A month ago, the imperial doctor discovered that there was something wrong with his body. That's why he couldn't wait to use his shadow to lure Concubine An and others, in order to catch them all in one fell swoop. The successor will have an easier time.”
The development of things was really beyond Lin Qingge's expectation.
She recalled the last few times she saw Emperor Zhou, and she didn't notice anything was wrong at all.
Zhou Chenghan seemed to have noticed her doubts and said with a smile: "He is an old fox, how could something go wrong in his plan? After he discovered that there was something wrong with his body, he always arranged for his shadow to meet you."
Lin Qingge: "..."
She really didn't expect that Emperor Zhou would be so cautious, and she was worried that she would notice the clues and avoid meeting him directly.
With such a scheming plan, managing national affairs well is not better than using your brains on Feng Shui to exhaust your efforts?
It's really putting the cart before the horse, ridiculous and sad.
Pursing her lips, she took a sip of the slightly cold tea: "So, are you hinting to me that Chu Nanfeng was tripped?"
"It depends on what you think about this question. Anyway, I think it would be good for everyone if you disappear for a while."
"But have you ever thought about it, no one will wait for another person forever."
"What?"
She sorted out her thoughts and said, "My lord, you don't have any sweethearts, right?"
After getting the answer in the affirmative, she shrugged: "Without a lover, you won't know the pain of gaining and losing. What's more important is that after surviving the pain of loss, only ruthlessness is left in your heart, and there is nothing else." ?”
Because we love each other, we have to face it together.
Even if the future is difficult and dangerous, we cannot give in directly just because of difficulties.
So what is the meaning of so-called love?
And she knew very well in her heart that there was no one in this world but anyone.
Once you are separated and get over it, it is impossible to go back.
Life is an extremely realistic existence, everything is moving forward, how can it be possible to go back to the beginning?
Zhou Chenghan frowned, seeming to be thinking about her words.
After a while, he shook his head: "Maybe you are right, but if you show up now, I'm afraid it will cause quite a stir."
"You want to stop me?"
"I'll take you back to Beijing."
After the negotiation was completed, Lin Qingge rested for another day before taking a carriage back to Beijing.
Although everything around her was a familiar scene, she felt familiar yet unfamiliar, as if everything had quietly changed and was no longer the same as before.
The carriage suddenly stopped, and she looked at Zhou Chenghan next to her for a moment.
There was still a faint smile on his face: "He is in the palace now. It is inconvenient for you to enter the palace, so you should go back to the general's mansion first."
Lin Qingge did not refuse. After nodding his thanks, he got off the carriage and took Luo Hong back.
"Young lady, you are back!"
"Madam, if you and the general don't come back, we have no backbone!"
"..."
As soon as she entered the door, she was surrounded by servants. She finally found some meaning of existence.
"Don't worry, everyone, everything will be fine. It was just civil strife in the court before, but now everything has recovered and we can live our lives normally."
After comforting the servant, she motioned for the housekeeper to follow her.
"Young Madam, do you have any orders?"
"Is grandma back?"
"not yet."
Lin Qingge's brows furrowed, and a hint of coldness flashed through his eyes: "On the day of King Qi's funeral, why did you suddenly disappear?"
"Young Madam, weren't you the one who asked us to leave?"
"Yes, not long after you and the general left that day, someone came back with a souvenir from you, telling us to leave quickly. And we couldn't leave together, we had to leave in small groups."
Did she arrange it?
impossible!
If it wasn't her, who could it be?
It's not scary if it's Concubine An. Anyway, everything will stop after death, but what if someone else did this?
A layer of chill filled her heart: "After the incident ended, did Chu Nanfeng come back?"
"No, that's why we feel uneasy."
It was indeed disturbing. Mrs. Chu disappeared without a trace, and Chu Nanfeng never came back.
Lin Qingge's brows furrowed even more tightly, but her tone was still calm: "Calm down the people below. The garrison of the capital is all in the capital during this period. It's normal for Chu Nanfeng to be busy. If there is any news in the house, please tell me in time. , don’t make trouble at this time.”
"Yes, young lady."
After letting the housekeeper leave, she returned to Qingzhu Garden and lay down in a familiar room, but found it difficult to sleep peacefully.
There was always a feeling of 'storm is coming' in her heart.
After tossing and turning on the bed for who knows how long, she heard Luo Hong's somewhat surprised voice: "Sixteen! Did the general ask you to come back? Go and see the young lady, she's going crazy!"
sixteen? !
Lin Qingge sat up excitedly. Before she could react, she heard Shiliu's voice, which made her feel like she had fallen into an ice cave.
