Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 131 part 2

Chapter 131 The beginning of the madness (2)

Did he think that he couldn’t see what he was doing? Situ Yuanxiao was very polite to him just now. However, someone who was always not polite became polite, this mean that he either wanted something from him or he had another motive.

And Situ Yaohua knew this younger brother better than Situ Yuanxiao knew himself. Once he felt guilty, he would be very polite to people and politeness represent alienation.

Telling him those things to provoke their conflicts, but why? Does he also want to fight for the throne? Or was it for someone?

Situ Yaohua had secretly learned that Situ Yuanxiao likes Zhao Zhong. And that Zhao Zhong is Lin Qing’s subordinate.

Haha, it is really interesting. Situ Yaohua couldn’t help but laugh out loud. His laughter was full of unknown meaning.

The next day at Cining Palace, the imperial physician was checking the pulse of the old empress dowager lying on the bed.

The empress dowager was old. She accidently got the cold when she went for a walk and she didn’t get better after she got the cold. Hence, emperor Jinghui rushed over with Lin Qing.

After the imperial physician diagnosed the empress dowager, his expression was a bit bad. No matter what, the empress dowager was old and even a small sickness could become fatal if they were not careful.

The imperial physician prescribed a prescription and then led the people to go make the concoction. Lin Qing comforted emperor Jinghui, “Your Majesty, the empress dowager flooded of good fortune. Nothing will happen to her. I believe that empress dowager will cure from this small illness. Your Majesty doesn’t have to be too sad.”

Emperor Jinghui shook his head guiltily and said, “It is zhen’s fault. Zhen only know how to have fun all day long and haven’t come pay empress mother respect for a long time. Zhen is not filial.”

• Zhen: I, used by the emperor

There were thick dark circles on emperor Jinghui’s eyes. Lin Qing raised his eyelids, glanced at emperor Jinghui and said, “Your Majesty, it is important to take care of your body.”

Emperor Jinghui’s chubby body already looked slightly thinner. From time to time, there would be symptoms of dizziness, fatigue and inability to eat. The imperial physician already told emperor Jinghui to not be engrossed in too much entertainment, but no one could interfere with what the emperor wanted. Hence, apart from the empress dowager, Lin Qing was also worried that emperor Jinghui’s body was reaching its limit.

Emperor Jinghui didn’t listen. A moment later, someone outside the door reported that the crown prince is seeking an attendance.

Emperor Jinghui permitted it. It didn’t take long for Situ Yaohua to run in full of tears. He knelt in front of the empress dowager’s bed and cried in pain, “This grandson is unfilial and didn’t take good care of you. This grandson knows that this grandson is at fault.”

While he was still kowtowing to the empress dowager, Lin Qing gently reminded him, “Your Highness, the empress dowager has already fallen asleep. It is not appropriate for you to be so loud now.”

On the crown prince mournful expression appeared a trace of being at loss. Then, he looked at his emperor father with guilt and grievance.

Emperor Jinghui humphed once. Then, he turned and left. Lin Qing followed closely and he still casted a “concerned” look at Situ Yaohua.

Situ Yaohua’s body shook. His expression darkened instantly. His stared fixedly at Lin Qing’s leaving back. His eyes revealed intense viciousness.

The official memorial of the northwest arrived at last. Before, the great ministers could’ve reviewed it, it went directly into Lin Qing’s hands. When Lin Qing read the content, Lin Qing was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth.

The memorial immediately passed the review and went to the morning court the next day. Zhao Zimu asked for a leave to return to the capital to resume office. Everyone knew that she made a great feat at such a young age and wanted to see who she was.

Moreover, the Xiongnu had temporarily ceased the war. Now, they could summon her back and reward her greatly.

However, when there were some people who would agree with it, there would also be people who would oppose it. Situ Yaohua and his fraction opposed this proposal.

There was no other reason than that Zhao Zimu was someone on Lin Qing’s side. If they really let this person come back, it would let Lin Qing be a tiger that has grown wings. Situ Yaohua wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen no matter what.

• A tiger that has grown wings: with redoubled power

The officials in the main hall bickered again. The people from the crown prince’s fraction said that Zhao Zhong is an important figure guarding the northwest against the Xiongnu. Not only was there no time to relax the vigilance, summoning her back would only let the Xiongnu take advantage of it and once something happens, the great situation that the northwest army has finally won, would be destroyed. So, Zhao Zhong could not be easily summoned back.

Although, the opposing officials spoke fiercely, what they said was not unreasonable. Therefore, emperor Jinghui thought about it for a moment and finally rejected Zhao Zimu’s request.

After the morning court, Situ Yaohua glanced once at Lin Qing with a smile before he was slowly urged to leave by the others. After Lin Qing stood quietly for a while at the same place, there was a sudden madness in his eyes.

He had waited long enough…no one could stop her from returning to him!
