Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 94 part 1

Chapter 94 I will! (1)

Muke’s thinking was still too simple. If anyone who knew Lin Qing would never trust Lin Qing so easily because this person wouldn’t acknowledge anyone except for emperor Jinghui. Of course, also except that another person.

Muke didn’t know how much of an overstatement the list in his hand was and how many of the overstatement were people who liked to go against Lin Qing. No one knew these, except for Lin Qing.

Muke regarded Lin Qing as a good sword. A good sword for cutting Great Liang’s mountains. However, Lin Qing also used Muke as a saw. A saw for him to cut off all the discordant branches and vines aimed at him from above and below the court of Great Liang.

Also, how could Lin Qing believe that the people who forced him to enter the grassland this time was the Xiongnu? It was not like he didn’t know how the Xiongnu looked like after being in the northwest for so long.

Pigtails, big beard, bow legs and sheepskin clothes. Although, the Xiongnu people who chased after him that day were also dressed in Xiongnu clothing, but their hair and their horses were different from the Xiongnu. He didn’t know whether the people who hunted him looked down too much on him or that they were sure that he would die, so, they didn’t even bother to disguise themselves well.

Lin Qing remembered that the night that he was hunted, the Xiongnu suddenly appeared from behind him. What was behind him? It was an important military base/town of Great Liang!

It would be a miracle if the Xiongnu could appear from there. Also, even though they were wearing Xiongnu clothes, their physique was relatively thin compared to the Xiongnu and the warhorses of the Xiongnu were obviously different from those of the Central Plains. Furthermore, he learned from Yue Yi and the others that some of their moves were commonly used by the people of the Central Plains.

The breeze had been still and the waves quiet for so long ever since Lin Qing had arrived in the northwest, but how was that possible? Lin Qing didn’t think that those at the court would let him stay quietly and peacefully in the northwest. If the people who had asked him to be sent to the northwest, really just send him to this ruined place, it meant that the time was not right yet. That they didn’t have any actions was because they were waiting for the right timing.  

• Breeze is still, waves quiet: dead calm

Lin Qing walked back to his big tent while thinking like this. Suddenly, he discovered that there were two people in the big tent, and they were acquaintances.

Lin Qing’s footstep paused for a moment. Then, he slowly stepped into the big tent. He respectfully bowed to the person in front of him and said, “This servant greets Your Highness the princess. It had been a long time since we have seen each other. Lin Qing pays respect to Your Highness.”

Even if Situ Ningan had married to the Xiongnu, Lin Qing would still give the imperial household the respect they deserved. It wasn’t for anything more than that he is a slave of the heavenly family. He is a slave no matter how high he climbed and how big his official position was. Lin Qing would never forget this. Also, it was because of this that he walked farther than those who were like him before and was more favored by the emperor.

There were only three people in the wide and quiet big tent. Lin Qing, Situ Ningan and her personal maid Wei Er who had always been with her.

Speaking of it, it had only been a few months since Situ Ningan married to the Xiongnu, but only after a few short months, Lin Qing had to view this princess in a new light again.

Although, Situ Ningan was still very beautiful, but the innocence and joy in the pair of beautiful eyes had long disappeared, leaving only a dead silence and some cold maturity.

It was also the same for her personal maid. If the master was not well, how could the servant be well?

There was a dull atmosphere in the big tent with the few people. It wasn’t until a gleam flashed in Situ Ningan’s silent eyes that looked at Lin Qing, that Lin Qing heard the person in front of him say, “It’s been a long time. Chief Eunuch Lin, you can get up.”

After hearing that, Lin Qing patted his numb knee and straightened up.

Meeting under such circumstances, the two of them didn’t know what to say. After a relative silence for a long time, Lin Qing took the initiative to speak, “How has Your Highness the princess been? His Majesty, the empress and the princes miss you very much. It is so great seeing that you all alright now.”

Situ Ningan’s eyes dimmed a bit with a sneer. She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Qing once before lowering them. A smile that was not yet a smile crossed over her icy cold face. She opened her mouth slightly ironic and said, “They miss me? Chief Eunuch really know how to joke. You might as well not have said that. What about it that they miss me. What they have done is already done. What use does missing have? What am I compared to the thousands people of Great Liang and the throne?”

“Princess…,” Lin Qing said. Lin Qing knew that it was useless to say anything now. The child in front of him had lived for more than a decade in the palace. It could be considered that he had watched her grown up. So, her current situation made him somewhat silent.

The youthfulness of being a girl had long faded from Situ Ningan. She exuded a faint taste of maturity. Adorned in a Xiongnu dress made her exude a different kind of bearing. Lin Qing was no stranger to her deadly and desperate eyes. He had seen many women in the harem with this look. He just sighed inwardly.

The lives of others had nothing to do with him.

“Now that Qiansui had fallen into the mouth of the Xiongnu, have you ever thought about how to go back?”

Situ Ningan’s eyes carried some stern and imperceptible expectations.

Seeing that Lin Qing didn’t answer, Situ Ningan stood up, walked to Lin Qing and said, “Everyone says that you are a traitor of the country. So, for your own life, you must want to leave here at any cost. But what can you do? The Xiongnu who tried so hard to catch you would definitely not let you go easily, unless they got what they wanted from you. And all your things are given by my emperor father. You are nothing without my emperor father, so…Chief Eunuch Lin, you can only get a chance to escape by betraying my emperor father. Then, Lin Qiansui, what have you betrayed my emperor father with?”
