Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 62 part 2

Chapter 62 Wait for me! (2)

Under everyone’s bad and awkward expression, Situ Ningan had been carried inside the carriage by people nervously. The troop that would go with Situ Ningan also followed behind in panic.

The officer of rites looked up at the sky. Regardless whether it was or wasn’t an auspicious time motioned with his hand. Music of seeing someone off was played and Situ Ningan was sent to the Xiongnu in a rush. She was sent away to far away from the country where she was born and had been raised for more than a decade while she felt unlimited grief and unwillingness. It would be difficult for her to return in this life.

After the Xiongnu envoys had moved away from the palace, the eyes of the officials and emperor Jinghui returned to Zhao Zimu.

Lin Qing’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately pulled her and knelt, “It is this subject’s crime. This subject will immediately arrest him and put him in the prison of the Department of Supervision!”

“Stop!” Situ Yuanxiao interrupted. He said to the still ashen faced emperor Jinghui, “This subject son thinks that this person has bad intentions and harbor unfathomable motives. This matter concerns the imperial household. This subject son asks to first send him to the prison of the Ministry of Justice and investigate him carefully. This matter is after all related to the face of the imperial household. It is better for a member of the imperial household to go investigate it.”

Prime minister Lin had been paying attention to the matters here ever since the princess started it. Knowing that this person is related to Lin Qing, he immediately stepped out and said, “This subject also thinks that.”

Crown prince Situ Yaohua also appeared and said, “For the face of my imperial family and also for little sister, this subject son is willing to be responsible for this matter!”

“Your Majesty…”

Lin Qing got anxious. He wanted to say something, but emperor Jinghui waved with his hand and said, “This person is yours. It is not suitable for you to handle this matter. Moreover, it concerns the face of the imperial household. It couldn’t be done sloppily. Let the crown prince handle it!”

Emperor Jinghui’s expression was bad. If the person kneeling in front of him was not Lin Qing, he would’ve long convicted him already. That such a thing happened was truly very shameful!

If this matter was handed to a member of the imperial household, the confidentiality of the matter could be guaranteed. If this kind of thing was spread, what would the world think of the imperial household and how would the officials look at him?

Not teaching the daughter well; losing virtue and losing chastity!

He couldn’t afford to make this mistake! In which dynasty had this happened before? If this was recorded in the annals, it would be the biggest stain of his reign! Without doubt!

Emperor Jinghui would never allow this to happen!

He must cover this matter. Emperor Jinghui gave Situ Yaohua a meaningful glance. Situ Yaohua nodded respectfully. The meaning was self-evident. He would definitely handle this matter well and would not let the imperial household lose face.

Lin Qing broke out in cold sweat. His whole back was wet. He had been watching the communication between these two people. This was wanting the life of the person behind him regardless of the course of event and without care for the right and wrong!

He quickly casted his eyes to Situ Wenrui. Situ Wenrui glanced at him once, but there was no action in the end.

Emperor Jinghui slung his sleeve and left.

The officials around left quickly as if they were avoiding a plague. They were no fools. No one wanted to get involved in the scandal of the imperial household. Those who get involved would get a body full of dirt.

The people of the Armed Escort quickly gathered around and wanted to pull Zhao Zimu away. Lin Qing reflexively pulled Zhao Zimu. He held her hand and looked gloomily at the person who wanted to take her away.

A few guards of the Armed Escort looked at each other in dismay. They were a bit at loss about what to do. Lin Qing had accumulated prestige in the court for a long time. For a time, the guards really didn’t know what to do.

At this time, only the few princes haven’t left yet. Situ Yaohua stepped forward and said, “Why does Qiansui grab the criminal and not want to let go? Could it be that you want to protect him? Does Qiansui know that the sin of this person is the big crime of humiliating my imperial family’s face and that he shouldn’t be let off no matter what?”

Situ Yaohua said that on purpose just to see Lin Qing’s reaction. Looking at Lin Qing’s reaction, he cares very much about this person. That was why he intentionally cooperated with fifth just now to get this task in order to catch Lin Qing by surprise. He faintly felt that the relationship Lin Qing has with this person was not simple.

Zhao Zimu was dressed in male’s clothing and her face had been slightly modified. There was much heroic spirit on her face and it was very different from when she dressed in women’s clothing with a weak and elegant appearance. Therefore, Situ Yaohua who had seen her twice didn’t recognize her. However, if he had recognized her then the matter would become even more not simple.

The bead on both sides of the hat of the Inner Chief Eunuch didn’t move a single jot, making Lin Qing’s effeminate face appear more eerie and his slanted eyes were filled with a dangerous aura. His thin lips seemed to be drawn in a bloodthirsty arc. His whole person emitted a terrible aura, making everyone not dare to approach him.

Situ Yaohua stepped forward once more and said, “Lin Qiansui, are you protecting the criminal because you want to defy the decree? This a big crime of rebelling against the emperor!”

Zhao Zimu saw that the event was about to turn bad, she could only feign and said respectfully and sincerely to Lin Qing, “Lord Qiansui, this subordinate doesn’t know anything. This subordinate will wait for Lord Qiansui to clear the injustice for this subordinate!”

After Lin Qing heard this, he slowly let go of her hand. When he faced Situ Yaohua and Situ Yuanxiao, all the gloominess could be seen from his face and he even smiled eerily at them. He said softly to the two princes, “If this person had committed a crime, Your Highness doesn’t have to show any mercy. Investigate. Must investigate thoroughly. This subject will certainly cooperate!”

Situ Yaohua and Situ Yuanxiao were stunned and exchanged a glance. Although, they didn’t understand, they turned around and escorted Zhao Zimu away.

He spoke without sound to the far away Zhao Zimu. Zhao Zimu happened to turn her head and saw it. She smiled slightly at him. She knew what he meant. This person said three words.

Wait for me!
