Chapter 131 Test
So what if he scolded her? Lin Qingyue rolled her eyes at him, pushed him aside and walked away.
Dongfang Yan followed behind like a dog-skin plaster, "Qingyue, where are you going? And last night, you didn't come back all night, and I couldn't find you in the whole capital. Where did you spend the night? As a princess, you left the capital without even saying goodbye. After finally coming back, you didn't even go back home and spent the night outside. Women should follow the three obediences and four virtues, and you..."
Lin Qingyue shouted, "Shut up!"
The next moment, Dongfang Yan couldn't utter a word and could only make "Aba Aba" sounds.
He glared at Lin Qingyue angrily: "Aba Aba Aba..." What did you do to me?
Lin Qingyue said, "You should be thankful that I have turned over a new leaf."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have used the silencing spell, but would have just chopped off his head with a knife.
"There are a few courtiers over there who seem to be coming over to speak to you. I wonder what their reaction would be if they discovered that the noble Prince of Jin had become mute and could only speak in babbling tones? Haha, it sounds very interesting!"
Lin Qingyue said this as if she was about to call for help.
Dongfang Yan didn't want his subordinates to see him in such an embarrassing state, so he glared at Lin Qingyue again and quickly left. He looked so embarrassed.
After the troublesome person left, Lin Qingyue turned around and saw Dongfang Qi walking towards her.
She walked over and greeted him with a smile, "Your Highness, thank you for your trouble."
Dongfang Qi pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Where did Xie come from?"
Lin Qingyue said, "Don't pretend. The honor of being a prince must be your work. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many ministers speaking up for me in the court just now. Prince Chaolan... well, I really like this title."
Once a wave of disturbance arises, it shakes the world! It seems that if you are not careful, the country will be turned upside down.
Dongfang Qi smiled slightly: She really likes this title, the morning light, the grandeur of the waves, the elegance and grandeur suit her.
"It's just an empty title, nothing more. To silence those old ministers, I can't make your title hereditary for the time being. I hope you don't mind."
"That's not important." Lin Qingyue said nonchalantly, "I have no plans to have children anyway, so whether or not the family lineage is hereditary is the same to me."
She wanted a title of nobility only because she knew in her heart that in the current country, if she wanted to gain a higher degree of freedom, she would have to stand in a higher position to have a higher voice.
Dongfang Qi pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "How are you and Dongfang Yan going to resolve this? I don't mean to interfere in your private affairs, I'm just worried that Dongfang Yanyan will embarrass you."
Lin Qingyue said, "He can't embarrass me. I want a higher title because I don't want to be controlled by others. Now that I have been granted the title of prince, I have the right to submit a petition. When I have time, I will write a petition for divorce and submit it to your father. He is the one who will break the engagement he has arranged."
After a pause, Lin Qingyue suddenly asked Dongfang Qi, "What if your father doesn't allow it?"
Then he smiled again: "It's okay, if he doesn't agree, I will force him to agree! If he insists on his own way and refuses to agree, then I will simply upgrade to another level!"
Dongfang Qi asked, "Another promotion? Prince is already the highest rank. Where else do you want to go?"
Lin Qingyue moved closer and said jokingly, "What would you do if I took your father's place?"
Her breath was as sweet as orchid, and the warm air brushed past Dongfangqi's ears, leaving behind a few strands of ambiguous tingling sensations.
A scene from his dream suddenly surfaced in Dongfang Qi's mind—Lin Qingyue, dressed in a dark imperial robe, gently called out to him, "A Zhuo."
He embraced her soft waist, his fingertips peeling off the solemn robe inch by inch, until the moonlight flowed over her shoulders, reflecting the snow-white skin underneath...
What am I thinking?
He took a step back suddenly, putting some distance between himself and Lin Qingyue. His eyes were panicked and he dared not look directly at the beauty in front of him.
"Don't ever tell anyone else what you said. Not even as a joke!"
After saying this, he walked away in a hurry with hurried steps.
Lin Qingyue looked at his hurriedly departing back and laughed heartlessly: You should be thankful that I have now turned over a new leaf.
It seems like a joke, but it is actually a test.
In the land of red shadows, a friendship of life and death. But when he returns to the heights of power, how long can those life-saving graces last?
I don't know how many emperors had several close friends before they ascended the throne, but after they ascended to the high position, they changed their attitude.
It is not uncommon to see running dogs being cooked and cunning rabbits dying.
She had been an emperor and knew how seriously power could corrupt people's hearts.
Will the future Dongfangqi be the same?
However, judging by his reaction just now, he was still extremely protective of Lin Qingyue. Even though she deliberately challenged the imperial power, he did not really get angry.
What about the future? If one day he ascends to the throne, will he still be able to maintain his current innocent heart?
After leaving the palace, Lin Qingyue went to Xuanjingsi with a small entourage.
The mob of people in the Xuanjing Division, having just learned that Lin Qingyue had been crowned king, were all happy for her. They surrounded Lin Qingyue and chattered loudly:
"Deputy Envoy Lin has become very rich! I heard he was rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold! How many years would it take me to earn that much?"
"Stop counting on your fingers. Even if you work like a beast of burden for your entire life, you still won't make that much money."
"Deputy Envoy Lin, I envy you so much! Why can't I be crowned king? I think my contributions are also very great!"
"Rice, you should stop joining in the fun. You want to be crowned king? What? The Rat King? You already are!"
"Deputy Envoy Lin, you must treat us tonight! We need to go to the best restaurant and eat the most expensive dishes!"
These people in Xuanjingsi were born in the lower class and don’t have so many rules.
Even if Lin Qingyue was crowned king, for them, it was just a matter of getting rich, which made no difference at all. So the titles remained the same as before, and there was no distinction between superiors and subordinates.
"Okay, I'll treat you to the best restaurant tonight and the most expensive dishes!" Lin Qingyue herself was not a very disciplined person, so naturally she liked to hang out with people like them and become brothers.
Da Mi turned his attention to Xie Shouzheng and said, "Master Xie, why didn't you say anything? Don't think we don't know you've also received quite a bit of reward money. Deputy Envoy Lin is treating us tonight, and tomorrow night it will be Master Xie's turn to treat us!"
Xie Shouzheng cursed, "A bunch of naive bastards who only know how to eat! Just make a fuss for a while, then get back to work! Da Mi, you stay here and report on the latest case in the Xuanjing Division."
During the days they were away, other cases naturally occurred in the capital.
Da Mi reported all the cases that had happened in recent times in detail.
After Xie Shouzheng heard this, he suddenly asked, "That's all. Is there anything missing?"
Da Mi shook his head: "No, it's all here."
Lin Qingyue took over the conversation and asked, "Where's Hongyao?"
Da Mi looked confused: "What is red medicine and white medicine? Is it delicious?"
Xie Shouzheng slapped him and said, "How come you only know how to eat! Hongyao is just a name, the fox demon Hongyao! Didn't she turn herself in?"
Da Mi scratched his head and said, "I haven't heard of any fox demons appearing in the capital recently, let alone any demons turning themselves in."
Earlier in Donglin Prefecture, after Miao Dong was brought to justice, Hongyao had agreed to surrender herself to the Xuanjing Division headquarters in the capital. Xie Shouzheng had even handwritten a petition, asking the men in the yamen to take care of her while they held her.
I didn't expect that she would break the appointment.
