Chapter 133 Ruthless and Unrighteous
Lu Wanning stared at him with no expression, her tone extremely cold. "So, you want me to forget everything that has happened, including the death of my parents, and then you will replace King Lin Chang to compensate me, right?"
Qin Linche lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
"That's not the case. Give me some time. Once Min Xiao is stable, I'll personally bring King Lin Chang to you, okay?"
Lu Wanning was disappointed enough that she didn't say anything for a long time.
Qi Muchao sneered, "I understand. Min Xian brought you back because he wanted you to compete for that position. I'm sure you've already had this idea."
"Instead of waiting for Minxun to stabilize, it would be better to directly say that after you become the King of Minxun, you can hand King Linchang over to my wife for disposal."
Qin Linche seemed to want to refute, but what Qi Muchao said was not wrong, he was just analyzing his own thoughts.
And his next words left Qin Linche with no way to refute.
"Once you ascend the throne of Minxuan, will you be able to easily deal with Linchang King? Aren't you busy consolidating your own power and gaining more loyal followers?"
Qin Linche wanted to say that it was not the case, but he was the one who took on the task of helping Lu Wanning find the buttons. After realizing the truth, he chose not to tell Lu Wanning about these things. Instead, his first reaction was to think about how to keep it secret.
He opened his mouth and closed it again, and in the end it just turned into an apology.
Lu Wanning had calmed down by now, and the disappointment in her eyes had been well concealed by her.
But the more this happened, the more embarrassed Qin Linche became.
She stood up, tugged at Qi Muchao's sleeve, and wanted to leave.
But before leaving, he glanced at Qin Linche and said, "I'm not a kind person who wants to save everyone I see. If I had known that I would hear you say such words today, I would definitely not have chosen to save you that time."
After saying that, she took Qi Muchao's hand and left.
The two of them walked a long way, but Qin Linche was still standing there without moving.
Yes, his life was actually saved by Lu Wanning.
At that time, he did not know his identity, but someone in Minxuan had already found out. The people who wanted to get rid of him arrived before those who wanted to take him back to Minxuan.
So much so that Qin Linche almost lost his life that time.
After escaping by chance, he was rescued by Lu Wanning, and only then did he believe what she said about him being the apprentice of Doctor Luo Shen.
Otherwise, given Qin Linche's cautiousness, it would be impossible for him to let Lu Wanning enter Huichun Hall so easily.
Thinking of how proud Lu Wanning was when she appeared in front of him, he could only shake his head now.
It is true that things and people have changed.
He never imagined that he and Lu Wanning would end up like this.
Guan Feng stood aside and waited until he stood up before speaking, "If Miss Lu really goes to Prince Linchang's mansion, should we stop her?"
"Why stop him?" Qin Linche's voice was a little hoarse. "He has done the evil himself, so he should pay for it himself. Do you think that with Qi Muchao's temper, if we really stop him, he will inevitably use some shady tricks when we return to Ming Kingdom?"
But it would not be appropriate to just let King Linchang get into trouble.
Qin Linche thought for a moment and said, "Find a way to invite King Linchang to the Huanglou, or to the same private room as before. Also, don't let anyone see your identity."
Guan Feng agreed and did it immediately.
King Linchang and Qin Linche have been working together for a long time.
It was he who told Qin Linche's identity.
If it weren't for King Linchang, Qin Linche would not be able to return to Minxian now, but if you ask Qin Linche how grateful he is to him, then that's not the case.
After all, the two of them were just getting what they wanted. If King Lin Chang hadn't thought he was easy to control, he wouldn't have set his sights on him in the first place.
But now he felt that Qin Linche's ambition was exposed and he was not as easy to control as before, so he immediately wanted to suppress his momentum.
He dares to be so arrogant now. What good will he get when he really sits on the throne of King Minxuan?
When King Linchang received the news sent by Guanfeng, he felt a little proud.
He believed that his suppression of Qin Linche over this period of time had taken effect.
Huanglou is where the two of them usually meet to discuss things. Today he asked me to go there, it must be to admit my mistake.
That's right, he is just a cheap prince who came back not long ago. He probably doesn't even know how many noble families there are in Minxia now. Without me, it would be extremely difficult for him to sit on that position. It has been so long, it's time for him to give in.
It's really ungrateful to make trouble with me just for a few harmless people.
In order to show that he didn't care, King Linchang deliberately delayed for some time before going to Huanglou.
When I arrived, an hour had passed since the appointment with Qin Linche.
He pushed open the door and saw Qin Linche sitting inside sipping tea leisurely. He immediately raised his eyebrows, and the silver nail hanging on the end of his eyebrow flashed.
He swaggered over to sit opposite Qin Linche and said leisurely, "Why, you invited me here today, do you know you were wrong?"
Qin Linche nodded, "I do understand."
Not only is it wrong, it's seriously wrong.
He sighed, "If I had known this would happen, things wouldn't have gotten so awkward."
This completely ruined the only impression Lu Wanning had of him, which was still a memory that she would occasionally remember as an old friend.
If he didn't do something, maybe when she returned to Ming Dynasty, as the days went by, when she happened to think of him, she would define him directly in her heart.
A heartless, ungrateful and conscienceless person.
Whenever he thought about it, Qin Linche felt like something was blocking his chest.
King Linchang snorted, "Besides me, do you really think there's anyone else in Minxian who can help you?"
"Those old guys are watching you covetously. If it weren't for me trying every possible way, you would have been killed countless times by them. If it weren't for your father's face, I wouldn't bother to care about you."
Father?
Qin Linche sneered in his heart but did not say a word.
Prince Lin Chang continued to ramble, "If you keep limiting your horizons to those insignificant little things, even if you really do sit in that position, it won't last long."
"Those who achieve great things don't pay attention to trivial matters. Don't you understand this principle?"
Qin Linche took a sip of tea and said slowly, "It's meaningless to say that now. Since I already feel I was wrong, I have to find a way to make amends."
He personally poured a cup of tea for Prince Lin Chang and handed it to him. "This is the tea I brought with me when I came from Ming Kingdom. It has a pleasant fragrance and is very good. Your Highness, please try it."
Only then did he reluctantly admit his mistake. Considering his sincere attitude, King Linchang did not intend to bother with him for the time being.
