Chapter 23 The purpose of the third prince


How could Zhao Zimu not know what Li Xianger’s scheme was? Originally, she could’ve ignored it, but the thought of Lin Qing being in the arms of a warm fragrance accompanied by wine, she felt an uncomfortable feeling in her heart. Hence, she came.


The guard at the hall recognized that Zhao Zimu was one of the beauties of the residence and had just stayed in Lord Qiansui’s courtyard last night. He himself didn’t know why he let her in.


Lin Qing looked at her gloomily. Just as he was about to let someone bring her to his side, Zhao Zimu respectfully bowed to him, walked and sat down naturally on a place not far away.


She was still dressed in white like last night except that there was a light green belt tied around her waist now. A piece of silver silk had carefully woven her hair to the behind her face. Her whole person looked elegant like a chrysanthemum.


The one who was at Lin Qing’s side right now was Ye Qianqian. Ye Qianqian was pasting her soft and boneless body to Lin Qing. Her face was bright like a peach and plum and glorious like a peony. A slender hand obediently poured wine for Lin Qing.


After Lin Qing stared once at Zhao Zimu, he didn’t look at her anymore. Zhao Zimu sat there as if nothing was the matter. She obviously did nothing, but she looked so natural without the slightest sense of suddenness of having just joined.


Only Jia Yi and Jia Er felt that the atmosphere was inexplicable gloomy and weird. They were members of the Prefecture of Arrest and were responsible for arresting and seizing people. They often accompanied Lin Qing’s side and was in charge of protecting him. Because they had something to do recently, they had just come back today. They were familiar with Lord Qiansui’s temper.Jia Yi and Jia Er meant armored (guard) one and armored (guard) two.


Jia Yi and Jia Er were also familiar with Qiansui’s residence. Although, they weren’t familiar with Zhao Zimu, but they knew that there was such a beauty in the residence. When Lin Qing gave orders just now, they were also by his side. Naturally, they knew that although Lin Qing didn’t mention it, but when he ordered, this beauty was not one of the invited ones. This was also something they were puzzled about.


Lord Qiansui had never paid attention to such an extent to any beauty of the residence before. Now, he began to treat someone special making them feel that it must be some conspiracy.


Now, they felt even stranger. This woman actually came here by herself. Wasn’t this disobeying Lord Qiansui’s orders? And Qiansui actually didn’t say anything. Was there something wrong?


Jia Yi and Jia Er already quietly clenched the hilt of their sword on their waist. If there was something wrong with this woman, they would definitely let her lose her life under their sword!


At this time, third prince was toasting with Lin Qing. His handsome face was full of smiles and he said, “Qiansui served the country and the people, is loyal and served my emperor father wholeheartedly. Qiansui had worked hard for my Great Liang. Ji An admired that very much and will show Ji An’s respect for Qiansui with this toast.”


Ji An is third prince’s personal name. A prince’s personal name usually could only be called by the emperor and their birth mother as a way to express the honorable and noble position of the imperial household. Even the imperial tutor wouldn’t dare to call them by their personal name. Now, third prince used his personal name to interact with Lin Qing. This was already expressing his goodwill in disguise.


Naturally Lin Qing knew what third prince was thinking. With a smile on his face, he also raised his cup and said respectfully, “How could Lin Qing dare to accept being treated so respectfully by third prince? This servant is truly not deserving of the address of just now. Third prince must never do it again.”


“Chief Eunuch is modest. If it wasn’t because of you, how can emperor father be so relaxed? Chief Eunuch did to your utmost effort for my Great Liang, how could Ji An not respect you?” Third prince refused to let go.


Lin Qing smiled respectfully, “If third prince continues to say that, this servant could only demonstrate my sincere convictions with the dead. Even if this servant dies, this servant can absolutely not be disrespectful to the imperial household.”


“Qiansui, don’t take it so serious. It’s Ji An’s fault. Naturally, Ji An would absolutely not address myself with Qiansui like that in front of people. Qiansui, just take it as Ji An acting willful with Qiansui in private.” Third prince gave in and Lin Qing knew that if he still doesn’t accept third prince’s sugar, it would be very difficult to continue today’s performance. Hence, Lin Qing accepted it while acting very helpless.


The advisor at third prince’s side gave third prince a meaningful glance. Third prince smiled to Lin Qing and asked, “Chief Eunuch Lin, what do you think about the painting Ji An gave you before?”


Lin Qing’s eyes flashed. He raised his cup and said, “Sun, moon and ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains. All included, nothing more beautiful could be imagined. Third prince has good taste.”


Situ Wenrui was overjoyed. He looked at Lin Qing and said, “Ji An also felt like that. How about I and Chief Eunuch enjoy it together. Forever sharing this joy of the rivers and mountains with Chief Eunuch.”


Situ Wenrui had put his purpose openly like that. Lin Qing sneered in his heart. Presumably, the moment these rivers and mountains got in his hands, he would make mincemeat of me. However, he still smiled and said, “How could Lin Qing not accept third prince’s good intention? Lin Qing will once again toast with third prince.”


Having spoken till here, the two of them knew that their relationship was set. From now on, Lin Qing would stand at Situ Wenrui’s side and help him get the throne!
