Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 138 part 2

Chapter 138 Medicine and poison (2)

He slowly opened his mouth and said with a hoarse voice, “Your Highness, this servant doesn’t understand what you are talking about. This servant is already a fish in your hand and you can do whatever you want with me. What do you need to ask this servant for?”

“You are still going in circles with me?! I will tell you, Lin Qing, this crown prince doesn’t have so much time for you to spend! Quickly tell this crown prince, where is emperor father and the imperial jade seal?!!! Otherwise, this crown prince won’t be polite to you anymore!” Situ Yaohua said exasperatingly.

There was no other way. The imperial jade seal and emperor Jinghui had disappeared; how could he not be anxious?

How could he convince the world without the imperial jade seal? And emperor Jinghui’s whereabouts was still unknown so far. How could he be at ease?!

It was still good if his emperor father was in his hands. If that was the case, then, no matter if his emperor father wakes up or not, he would have a way to reverse the situation. However, the worst thing was that his emperor father was gone!

How could this not make Situ Yaohua frightened? If his emperor father comes back safe and sound, then, everything he did would be in vain. His emperor father had already got the intention to kill him because of Lin Qing’s scheme and now he had done these things; if his emperor father comes back, would he still have a way to survive?

Four days have passed since that chaotic battle and his people still didn’t find the location of emperor Jinghui and the imperial jade seal. This made Situ Yaohua almost go mad and wished that he could kill Lin Qing immediately and it wouldn’t even be an exaggeration if he cut Lin Qing a thousand times.

Lin Qing just closed his eyes and didn’t intend to speak anymore. After a few days of high fever, Lin Qing felt that his wound was infected. It could be seen that Situ Yaohua didn’t let people treat him well. So, the situation on his back was going bad like this.

It seemed that he was really anxious, otherwise, how could he not understand that if he dies, no one will know the whereabouts of emperor Jinghui and the imperial jade seal? This was exactly Situ Yaohua’s fatal weakness.

“You!” Situ Yaohua said with a stern look in his eyes, “If you don’t speak, this crown prince will kill you. Anyway, this crown prince can’t survive by keeping you. At worst, this crown prince will let you die with me!”

That Situ Yaohua was able to say this showed that the situation in the court has become very serious now. The country didn’t have a monarch. The crown prince taking care of the country was illegitimately conferred. Presumably, although many people in the court didn’t say it in the open, they might be secretly trying to give him (SY) a stab in the back.

After all, the crown prince even did such a thing as forcing the monarch to abdicate; why couldn’t second prince and third prince who were given fiefdoms, force their way back to the palace?

Moreover, the world was stable on the surface, but if some dissident people come out to cause trouble, then, the world would be in chaos.

But if Lin Qing really didn’t say anything, then, Situ Yaohua really couldn’t make up his mind to kill him because he still didn’t have the courage to face his emperor father suddenly appearing alive in front of him one day.

Therefore, he could only try everything possible to get Lin Qing to speak. He must speak, otherwise, even if Situ Yaohua was able to sit on that position, he wouldn’t be able to sit stable on it.

Situ Yaohua just sneered at Lin Qing’s attitude and said, “Do you think that this crown prince can’t do anything to you just because you don’t open your mouth? Lin Qing, I heard that not only can you let women like you, even men can be taken in by you. First, there was Zhao Zimu and then there was Zhao Zhong. What about you have attracted them? Power? This crown prince can also give them, but they were still very death set on you. So, this crown prince pondered about it and have to admit that the only thing that can attract them is yourself. Tell me, if this crown prince ruins you, will they still want to be in bliss beneath you? Lin Qing?”

Lin Qing suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him. There was something surging faintly in his eyes.

Situ Yaohua smiled with satisfaction. Then, he said word by word, “If this crown prince strips you naked and puts you in the prisoner car to parade naked in the public and let all the people of the world see what kind of ugliness you are as the scourge of the country. Tell me, even if you had hide them well, will they appear?”

Before Lin Qing could respond, Situ Yaohua turned around, laughed and said, “This crown prince will give you one night. If you still haven’t made a decision the next day, this crown prince won’t mind making it for you!”

Situ Yaohua’s laughter echoed in the empty cell. Lin Qing was left alone in the dark and damp cell again.

The darkness overwhelmed him and fear began to sprout. He hasn’t tasted this ever since emperor Jinghui succeeded in taking the throne.

What should he do? Lin Qing has his own pride. He could die, but he would never allow his ugliest side to be shown in front of the world. It would make him feel worse than death.

Especially now that he already has someone he loves the most in his heart. If something like that really happens, what face did he have to face her?

What to do?

This was a hundred times more painful than the wound on his back.

Zimu…

Zhao Zimu!

From the first time she accepted him, he knew that she would become his medicine and also his poison. She could make him love her the deepest and she could also make him hurt the most.
