Chapter 97
Lin Nanjie fell into a warm embrace, as if he was being held alive.
Li Chengqian's tone was so tense that he seemed like he would jump into the river if Lin Nanqian said something wrong: "Really? You're not leaving?"
Lin Nanjie felt the force on his body tightened a bit, and he moved his neck: "Really, I saw another me, he is living well there, so I won't leave, I want to stay."
Li Chengqian was relieved: "Okay."
His left shoulder was still hurting. Lin Nanjie grabbed Li Chenghuan and asked again, "Have you found the assassin from that day?"
Li Chengqian: "They are from Zhao. Ao Jingchuan led people to search the city and caught two who escaped. They are still being interrogated."
Lin Nanqi was worried: "I came here for you."
Li Chenghuan had a blank expression on his face: "It's not that easy for me to die."
Lin Nanqi still said: "It is still safe in the palace, Your Majesty should not leave the palace."
Li Chenghuan nodded: "You still need to recuperate from your injuries. Stay here and recuperate."
Lin Nanjie did not refuse this time and nodded obediently.
The judge examined Lin Nanjie's wounds, prescribed some tonics, and then led his men away. Lin Nanjie then saw an old Taoist priest who looked out of place in the Zichen store. When the old Taoist priest was let in, he looked at Lin Nanjie with shining eyes: "You are finally awake!"
Lin Nan looked at him. He was over fifty years old, with gray hair, but he looked very energetic, especially his eyes, which were not cloudy at all. He was dressed very simply, in a dark green Taoist robe. At first glance, he looked like a beggar on the street.
Lin Nanjie asked hesitantly, "May I ask who you are, sir?"
The old Taoist said, "I am Cui Wuchen."
Cui Wuchen?
Lin Nanjie suddenly remembered him and looked him up and down.
"Are you Cui Wugou's senior brother?"
"I heard that Cui Wu Gou was dressed in fine clothes and looked like an immortal, but why do you look... so down and out?"
When Li Chenghuan heard him introduce himself, he immediately protected Lin Nanjie behind him. Wang Dehai's face turned pale and he stuttered: "Demon, demon, demon, demon!"
Cui Wu Gou was the so-called immortal master who spread lies and deceived the previous emperor during his reign.
Cui Wuchen saw the reactions of the others and immediately widened his eyes: "You piss me off! Don't compare me with that idiot!"
Li Chengqian was still staring at him eagerly. Lin Nanjie raised his hand and patted him, whispering, "He doesn't seem to be a bad guy."
Cui Wuchen jumped up even more: "It wasn't originally!"
Li Chengqian did not let down his guard: "What on earth are you doing?"
Cui Wuchen then said, "Ten years ago, my junior brother went down the mountain and caused a lot of trouble. I thought the matter was over, but one moonlit night, I counted with my fingers and found that the bastard had reappeared in the arena and caused trouble..."
He pointed his finger at Lin Nanqi: "You're on the head."
"Alas," Cui Wuchen sighed, "It is unfortunate for our master. Our master has long passed away. Now I am the only one left to clean up the family for him. I followed him all the way from Qianzhou to the capital, but I didn't expect to find a person who was out of this world."
Lin Nanqi immediately thought of the Lotus Sect leader in Qianzhou: "Do you know the Lotus Sect in Qianzhou?"
Cui Wuchen snorted coldly: "How could I not know? They colluded with the people of Zhao and created the Lotus Sect, which pretends to be a god and deceives people."
Cui Wuchen glanced at Li Chengqian with deep sorrow and anguish: "You emperors are so easy to deceive."
Li Chenghuan was shot instantly.
Cui Wuchen said: "Now that you are awake, I feel relieved and will leave now."
Li Chenghuan stopped Cui Wuchen and said, "Wait a minute, Taoist priest. You have come a long way to the capital, and I guess you don't have a place to stay. How about I arrange a place for you to stay?"
Cui Wuchen had no sense of politeness at all: "Thank you very much."
***
In the prosperous capital city, in an inconspicuous house.
In the dim light, a figure looked around and then disappeared into the gate of the house.
The house seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, and the courtyard was overgrown with weeds. The person walked through the narrow and dim corridors and courtyards and pushed open the door of the last room.
Then, the wall in front of me automatically opened up, revealing a Taoist temple with a tower in it.
If someone knows the inside story, they will know that this was the Longevity Tower that was once very popular in the capital during the reign of the previous emperor. It was abandoned after the current emperor took office. Due to its slightly remote location, no one visited it over time except the beggar Crow.
The woman was actually Jinyi from the East Palace. She walked into the tower and went down the stairs. There was an underground palace in the tower.
Inside the underground palace, there was a huge bronze mirror. In front of the mirror stood a man wearing bright yellow clothes. When one got closer, one could see that he was wearing a five-clawed dragon robe.
Jin Yi stood a few steps away, looking at the man in the dragon robe, and smiled strangely: "My Lord, just wait a little longer, and you will soon ascend the throne and become the master of the world."
Li Chengsi turned around. He was wearing a dragon robe and his eyes revealed fanaticism.
As the crown prince appointed by the previous emperor, he had sought immortality and medicine with the previous emperor. Everyone thought that he died from taking too many elixirs like the previous emperor.
Li Chengsi looked at Jinyi with a gloomy face: "The assassination failed, what are you going to do?"
Jin Yi's expression remained unchanged: "My Lord, please be patient. I have a plan. That Lin Nanjie has been ruining our business everywhere. And seeing that the dog emperor likes this person very much, he must be eliminated. I have already arranged everything in the palace. The queen mother has great trust in me, and the little prince is also doing well."
Li Chengsi nodded: "That's good. When Li Chengqian finds out the truth, I wonder what his expression will be."
***
For dozens of days, Li Chenghuan ordered Lin Nanjie to recuperate in the palace. Lin Nanjie felt that this was a bit unfair. After all, he had just taken office for a short time and he was already asking for sickness and recuperation. He was eager to return to the Censorate to report for duty.
However, when Li Chengxuan summoned important officials to discuss state affairs in the Purple Palace, Lin Nanqi was listening in the back and heard Wang Wenhe say, "Your Majesty, regarding Lin Nanqi's injury..."
When Lin Nanjie heard Wang Wenhe talking about himself, he immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
[Does Lord Wang want me to go back to work in the Censorate? ]
Li Chenghuan was sitting on the dragon chair. When he heard Lin Nanjie's excited voice, he almost choked on his tea.
He stared at Wang Wenhe with a dim gaze.
During the few days of recuperation, I haven't seen Lin Nanjie so excited to see me.
But when he heard Wang Wenhe mention it, he became so excited.
Wang Wenhe continued, "Lin Nanjie sacrificed himself to protect the emperor. He is very righteous. Now the emperor has arranged for him to recuperate in the Purple Palace..."
At this point, Wang Wenhe paused, as if he was thinking about something.
Lin Nanjie's heart was instantly lifted, and his tone was a little nervous: [Alas, Lord Wang is the most polite, he will definitely say that this is against the rules. ]
Li Chengqian glanced at several important officials. After hearing what Wang Wenhe said, the others also hesitated to speak. Feng Yuanxiu took over the conversation and said, "This matter is indeed a bit against the rules. Lin Nan has done a great job in protecting the emperor, so just give him more rewards."
Several other ministers also echoed, "Lord Feng is right. After all, Lin Nanjie is an outsider. The emperor has already rewarded him with a residence and sent a court judge to treat him. This is already a supreme honor. Even if he stays in the palace, why should he stay in the Purple Palace? Isn't this a violation of rules?"
Li Chengqian expected that this matter would be mentioned today, and said to everyone: "Lin Nanjie was injured while saving me. His injuries are serious and he should not be moved."
Several adults still said: "Why not send someone to carry it? Why keep it in the Purple Palace? It is still against the rules."
Li Chengqian glanced at them coldly: "Let alone Lin Nanjie is now living in Zichen Palace to recuperate, even if he stays in Zichen Palace forever, what does it matter?"
Several ministers were immediately shocked: "How can this be possible!"
Li Chengqian was drinking tea leisurely, with no sign of panic on his face, as if he had not noticed the shocked expressions of the adults.
Minister of Rites Lu Weitong could not help but say: "The Queen's throne has been vacant for a long time, and the six palaces are empty. I beg the Emperor to accept more concubines from the six palaces and expand the family! Letting a fifth-rank official live in the Purple Palace is simply unheard of!"
Li Chenghuan raised his eyelids and looked at him: "Why, Lord Lu also wants to try whether the dragon bed in the Purple Palace is soft?"
Lin Nanjie was in the inner hall, sipping his tea in surprise when he suddenly heard these words. He choked on his water and immediately coughed.
I was afraid that the sound would spread to the front, so I covered my mouth and it took me a long time to recover.
[What a shameless question! ]
【Poor Lord Lu. 】
Li Chengqian sat upright, not aware of anything at all.
Lu Weitong was a minister at an advanced age with a white beard, but he was suddenly ridiculed like this. He froze on the spot as if struck by lightning. He was upright and had read books of sages. He had never been "offended" like this, especially by the emperor!
For a moment, I felt awkward and terrified, and remembered that the current emperor was a "daring thinker and more daring actor" before he ascended the throne.
His face flushed red: "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of my reputation!"
Then he squeezed out a sentence with frustration: "I have never had any improper thoughts!"
Who knew that this remark would cause even more misunderstanding, and several ministers looked at him with unclear eyes.
Lin Nanjie was holding his stomach and laughing silently in the inner hall, and he even wanted to tell Lu Chengzhou secretly.
Li Chenghuan looked at the others again: "Where are you?"
Lu Jingyao turned his eyes away guiltily. Lin Nanjie was going to attend his family's wedding, and he couldn't say anything bad about Lin Nanjie.
Just live here, it's no big deal!
"I have nothing to say."
Although Feng Yuanxiu was shocked in his heart, his expression just changed slightly and he said nothing.
Finally, only Wang Wenhe was left, and everyone looked at him secretly.
Isn't Wang Wenhe the most gentlemanly person? He certainly can't let this go so easily.
Wang Wenhe raised his head solemnly: "I have something to say."
Everyone's eyes are eager!
Here it comes!
Lin Nanqi also became nervous.
[My leader is going to speak! ]
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows slightly, also waiting for Wang Wenhe's next words.
Wang Wenhe waved his arms and said, "You gentlemen are really pedantic!"
Everyone was stunned.
Wang Wenhe's eyes were filled with righteousness: "Lin Nanjie is young, but he has the awareness to sacrifice his life for the country. He dared to step forward to protect the emperor in a critical moment. He is a hero of Daqi! The emperor is willing to ask the court to treat Lin Nanjie and keep him in the Purple Palace to recuperate. He is grateful and repays kindness. He is a true wise ruler!"
Lin Nanqi was stunned.
[Am I... so awesome? ]
[Innocent heart?]
[A hero of Daqi? ]
Several ministers looked at Wang Wenhe in shock; they didn't expect such words to come out of his mouth.
This guard has reached the front of the temple!
The wise ruler Li Chengqian coughed lightly and said, "Master Wang is indeed very righteous. In this case, we will follow Master Wang's advice and wait until Lin Nanqi's injury is fully recovered."
Wang Wenhe also said: "Lord Lin sacrificed his life to save the emperor and was seriously injured. He should take good care of himself. You don't have to worry about the affairs of the Censorate. It won't be too late to take leave after you have recovered from your injuries."
Lin Nanjie was deeply moved: [Wuwuwuwuwuwu, Lord Wang is still the best. ]
Li Chengqian: …
After the meeting was over, Li Chengqian returned to the inner hall and asked, "Are you relieved now?"
Lin Nanqi nodded, feeling relieved: "Since Lord Wang has said so, I will rest for a while."
Li Chengqian pinched Lin Nanqi's cheek maliciously: "Lord Wang is more effective than me in speaking. I think you don't even take me seriously."
[That’s my top boss! ]
After accidentally revealing his true feelings, Lin Nanqi immediately began to speak sweet words with a guilty conscience: "Of course the emperor is the best, the emperor is the best in the world!"
Li Chenghuan pinched Lin Nanjie's lips and said expressionlessly: "It's too late, I heard it all."
Lin Nanjie was furious: [It’s not fair! It’s so unfair! ]
[How can you hear me, but I can't hear you! ]
Li Chenghuan: "I won't say bad things about you."
But this is a problem. Li Chenghuan's thoughts instantly wandered off. Hmm, if we swap them, maybe it would be a bit more interesting.
Lin Nanjie had recovered 70% to 80% of his energy, and he said, "It is only because the emperor is willing to grant me leave that I can rest and recuperate in peace in this Purple Palace."
Li Chengqian was pleased with Lin Nanjie's flattering remarks.
In the afternoon, Li Chenghuan received the Indian envoys in the main hall. Lin Nanli was bored in the palace, so he went to the Yu Garden for a walk. After the sun was at its hottest, Lin Nanli walked slowly in the corridor. There was a gentle breeze, so it was not too hot. As soon as he entered the Yu Garden, he heard a burst of laughter. He Xiu, who was following him, said, "It's the Queen Mother and the little prince."
Lin Nanjie didn't want to disturb the grandparents' happiness, but Li Jingyu seemed to have eyes behind him: "Master Lin!"
Lin Nanqi had no choice but to walk into the garden: "Greetings to the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Stand up. I heard that you saved the Emperor and were seriously injured. How is your injury now?"
Lin Nanjie replied: "The judge of the court has brought him back to health, and now there is no major problem."
Only then did Lin Nanqi see that a group of people were surrounding a huge turtle.
This turtle was large, half the height of a man, lying on the ground with its head, tail and limbs stretched out. An eunuch was feeding it in front, and the turtle was crawling slowly behind the food.
Lin Nanjie moved closer to take a closer look. The turtle's shell was hard, with circles of patterns on it, and it was green all over.
After watching, Lin Nanjie politely praised: "What a good turtle."
It's just too green.
The palace maid beside the Empress Dowager said, "This divine turtle is a sacred object sent from India. It symbolizes longevity, health, and prosperity. The Emperor specially presented the divine turtle to the Empress Dowager, which shows his filial piety."
Lin Nanjie thought of some past events and then looked at the emerald green shell of the turtle. He couldn't help wanting to laugh, but he held it back and put on an innocent look.
It is estimated that Li Chenghuan also felt green and uneasy when he saw this divine turtle.
Jin Yi, who had been standing silently at the side, suddenly stood up, glanced at Lin Nanjie, and said to the Queen Mother, "This divine turtle is a spiritual beast that can detect good and bad luck. The Queen Mother's headaches have become more severe recently. It may be caused by the conflict of luck of someone in the palace. It is better to let this divine turtle take care of the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother showed a surprised expression: "Miss Jinyi also knows how to take advantage of others?"
Jinyi said, "Your Majesty, I am a humble girl from the common people. I have studied medicine since I was young and I have learned some other skills."
The Queen Mother had been troubled by headaches recently, and when she heard that the divine turtle could tell fortunes, she immediately became interested: "Let's give it a try."
Who knew that Li Jingyu suddenly said: "Grandmother, I heard that the so-called hexagrams and celestial phenomena are all groundless and cannot be believed."
Before the Queen Mother opened her mouth, Jin Yi smiled and said, "Your Highness is still young and has not yet experienced the wonders of the world. This divine tortoise and radish hexagram technique has been passed down from ancient times. Ancient emperors were well versed in it. How can it be an unfounded rumor? What does Lord Lin say?"
Jin Yi directly led the matter to himself. Lin Nanjie didn't know what she was up to, but it was definitely not a good thing. However, in front of everyone and hitting the empress dowager's soft spot, Lin Nanjie remained calm and said, "The divine turtle is a symbol of good fortune, and it is also a sign of filial piety from the emperor. I believe it can help the empress dowager solve her urgent problem."
After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled and nodded, patting the little prince's head: "Just think of it as a way to relieve your boredom."
Li Jingyu frowned and thought for a while: "Okay."
Jin Yi showed a strange smile, whispered a few scriptures to the divine turtle, and then said: "Whoever the divine turtle points to is the one who has a conflict with the Queen Mother."
Lin Nanjie: [This Jinyi pretends to be mysterious and tries to fool the Queen Mother. I always feel that this person is a little weird. ]
[However, this divine turtle is too far from the water. Will it feel uncomfortable? Well, there is a lake in the Yu Garden. It should be easy to accommodate a turtle. Oh, and there are many fish in the pond, not only koi, but also various ornamental fish...]
Under the scorching sun, the divine turtle was seen slowly moving its limbs, turning slowly among the crowd, and then stretching its head straight towards Lin Nanjie.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be Lin Nanjie?
He Xiu's face turned pale. If Lin Nanjie was identified as the culprit who assaulted the Queen Mother, he would be in big trouble.
When Jinyi saw this, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
Lin Nanqi looked at the green turtle, its pair of black eyes looking at him eagerly, and couldn't help saying: [Wrong, wrong... the pool is in the opposite direction. ]
Everyone saw the divine turtle stop in front of Lin Nanjie, looking up at him motionlessly, with a determined light in its green bean-sized eyes. Everyone looked at Lin Nanjie with a hint of suspicion.
Even the Queen Mother's eyes fell on Lin Nanjie and she looked at him several times.
Jin Yi spoke confidently: "It seems that this person is the one who bumped into the Queen Mother!"
The young prince frowned, feeling that something was not right. He Xiu was so anxious that his face turned pale: "Empress Dowager, I'm afraid it's because Lord Lin was seriously injured, and the divine turtle smelled the blood and pointed at Lord Lin."
The Queen Mother hesitated again: "That makes sense. The sense of smell of a divine turtle is naturally more sensitive than that of a mortal."
Jin Yi was about to say something, but the young prince suddenly said, "The divine turtle is moving again!"
Everyone saw that the divine turtle quickly turned around and started to circle on the spot. After turning once, it crawled straight towards Jinyi.
Jinyi lowered her head and saw the divine turtle standing at her feet with a ferocious look on its face. Her expression changed slightly.
The nanny beside the empress dowager said in a sinister tone, "Remember, the empress dowager's migraine attacks became so frequent after Miss Jinyi entered the palace. Could it be that Miss Jinyi has evil in her fate and has offended the empress dowager?"
Jin Yi's face suddenly stiffened: "Madam, please don't talk nonsense. The Queen Mother's headaches are relieved every time I give her acupuncture."
Lin Nan looked at the divine turtle carefully and asked, "How long has it been out of the water?"
The eunuch serving the divine turtle immediately replied, "It's been two hours. It was originally going to be carried into the pond in the Yu Garden, but the Emperor said to let the Empress Dowager take a look first."
Lin Nan said: "Although the divine turtle can survive in water and on land, it has been out of water for too long. I'm afraid it wants to return to the water. This is the direction of the garden pond."
The eunuch immediately shouted, "Master Lin is right. It is in the direction of the pond."
Jinyi heaved a sigh of relief and stepped aside. There were no obstacles in front of the divine turtle, and the whole journey was smooth.
The Queen Mother gave her a cold look and said, "Lord Lin is right. It is obvious that there is no such thing as good or bad luck in this world. Everything has its own reason. Come on, lead the divine turtle into the water."
The divine turtle was led away by the eunuch. Jinyi's face was not as bright as before. She bowed and apologized: "I am a humble woman with limited knowledge. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
He Xiu took the opportunity to say, "Fortunately, Lord Lin is well-informed. If I allow you to slander me, I will become an unscrupulous person who offends the Empress Dowager. Lord Lin has at least blocked an arrow for the Emperor, how can I allow you to slander me without any evidence?"
The Queen Mother nodded solemnly: "Yes, I almost believed your absurd words."
Lin Nanzhen smiled and said, "It was just a joke. I'm fine now. I have to thank the Queen Mother for her keen observation."
The Queen Mother's expression improved, but her headache started to flare up again.
Jinyi took the opportunity to say, "The Queen Mother has a headache again. I want you to give me a massage."
The Queen Mother nodded: "Your massage is still the most comfortable for me."
Having said that, she took Jinyi back to Cining Palace, and the nanny beside her was helpless.
The young prince pulled Lin Nanjie and asked him to play with him.
Lin Nanjie held the little prince by his side, watching the Queen Mother and Jinyi return to Cining Palace, and asked the palace maid, "This Jinyi has been serving the Queen Mother all this time."
The palace maid replied, "Yes, now I often check the pulse of the little prince and prepare some medicinal food and drinks, which pleases the queen mother very much."
The little prince suddenly said, "I don't like playing with her."
Lin Nanjie squatted down, his eyes level with the little prince's: "Why doesn't your prince like her?"
Li Jingyu frowned: "The smell on her body is not good."
Lin Nanjie remembered that Li Jingyu had said before that the imperial concubine smelled bad. The palace maid beside the little prince said, "Your Highness always said that Jinyi smelled strongly of medicine, but Jinyi was originally a female doctor, so it was normal for her to smell of medicine."
"Your Highness is still young, and it is common for children to have a keen sense of smell."
Lin Nanqi said to Li Jingyu: "Since the young prince doesn't like her, I won't have any contact with her."
Lin Nanjie then said to the palace maid beside Li Jingyu: "Pay attention to the diet of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on weekdays."
The palace maid understood immediately: "Thank you, Lord Lin, for your advice."
When Lin Nanjie returned to the Purple Palace, Li Chenghuan had already returned from entertaining the Indian envoys, so Lin Nanjie told him about this matter. After listening, Li Chenghuan said, "This person must be quite famous."
Lin Nanjie nodded: "To be able to please the Queen Mother, she must be an extraordinary person. Today, she wants to take advantage of the divine turtle to make trouble and point the finger at me. I have never met her before, and we have never had any grudges against each other. She is targeting me so openly, which shows that she is malicious."
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly: "That's not all."
Lin Nanjie: "Anything else?"
Li Chenghuan then mentioned that when Lin Nanjie was in a coma, the Queen Mother had asked Jinyi to deliver food and also advised him to expand his harem.
Lin Nanjie was stunned: "She wants Jinyi to enter the harem?"
Li Chenghuan also had a strange look on his face: "I cannot allow strange people to enter my harem. You are enough for me in this life, but this golden dress can be used to counter my plan."
Lin Nanqi didn't know why he thought of the emerald green turtle again, and his thoughts suddenly changed: [Today's divine turtle is green, just like the emperor's head.]
Li Chengqian took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "Lin-Nan-Jie!"
Lin Nan shrank his neck and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Then he started to worry again: "I can't control it either!"
The more you suppress your inner voice, the more it will rebound. For example, right now, his thoughts can outline every groove on the divine turtle's shell.
[It's really green, so lush green…]
Li Chengqian clenched his back teeth and suddenly chuckled.
Lin Nanqi became alert instantly and looked at him suspiciously.
Li Chengqian crossed his arms and looked up at him: "You can't control yourself, right?"
Lin Nanqi: [? ]
Li Chengqian: "I have wanted to try it for a long time."
Lin Nanjie: "Try what?"
With a single swing of his hand, Lin Nanjie's feet left the ground. Li Chenghuan easily held her in his arms and walked towards the dragon bed.
Lin Nan subconsciously put his arms around Li Chenghuan's neck and swallowed.
[I...] Lin Nanjie's eyes began to dart around, with this and that popping up in his mind, and finally the scenes in the script began to replay in turn.
This is the one I read recently...
Li Chenghuan's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he held the person tighter: "This position... is not bad."
Lin Nanjie: [Ahhhhhhh, stop thinking! Stop thinking!]
Just as he was about to reach the bed, Lin Nanjie closed his eyes to avoid looking at the large and soft bed and began to talk nonsense in his head.
[Prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, and harmonious... The principle of the Pythagorean theorem is that the sum of the squares of the two right-angled sides of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse... The three idiots on the sled are Samoyed, Husky, and something else... Lord Wang spoke for me, I must thank him very much! Ahhhhhhh! Stop thinking! ]
[Last time I counted, you do have eight pack abs...Ahhh help! ]
Hearing this, Li Chengqian paused, and then a low laugh came out of his chest that he couldn't help.
The moment he was put on the bed, Lin Nanjie was completely devastated. His face turned red and he felt hopeless. He had never lain so flat before.
【Forget it. 】
Li Chenghuan placed his hands on Lin Nanjie's sides and looked at him leisurely.
"I didn't expect you had that kind of stuff in your head."
Lin Nanjie had tears in his eyes and tried to resist in the last ditch: "My injury is not healed yet."
Li Chenghuan kissed his left shoulder: "I checked it yesterday, and it's basically healed completely."
Lin Nanjie glanced at him: "When did you see it?"
Li Chengqian's eyes flickered: "Last night..."
Lin Nanjie's eyes widened: "Last night? I went to bed before you came back."
Li Chenghuan coughed twice and said, "I am concerned about your injury."
Lin Nanjie's eyes were dim: [This is the first time I've seen someone describe being a hooligan in such a considerate and touching way.]
Li Chengqian lowered his head and whispered in his ear: "I remember your storybook... I haven't finished reading it yet..."
Speaking of this, Lin Nanjie became energetic again.
[I've finished reading it... No! I haven't! ]
Unfortunately, the brain has already started to replay the various scenes in the script.
Li Chengqian was amazed: "So it can be done this way."
He lowered his head, bit off the tie on Lin Nanjie's chest, put it across his lips, and said vaguely: "So my dear likes this..."
Lin Nanjie's cheeks seemed to be dyed with peach blossoms. Seeing Li Chenghuan's aggressive gaze, her light-colored thin lips biting the moon-white frenulum, she felt an inexplicable attraction that gradually made her body boil.
Li Chengqian's eyes lit up: "I like it this way too."
Lin Nanjie's face turned even redder and he simply closed his eyes, thinking that he would rather not see it.
"President Fang said that I need to take good care of myself. I...I want to sleep!"
Li Chengqian hummed, and said, "Okay, go to sleep, leave everything to me."
【！ ！ ！】
Lin Nanjie closed his eyes, but his other senses were more acute. The laces were untied by Li Chenghuan. The temperature in the Zichen Palace was neither hot nor cold, but it caused a shudder for no reason.
In the end, deep inside the bed curtains, Lin Nanjie was pinned down and bullied, and had to listen to Li Chengqian say, "Hmm... So this is better?"
"So what?"
"My dear, you are very stubborn..."
Lin Nan was so embarrassed and angry that she wanted to die, but the temperature of the bed curtains remained high. In the end, she was soaked through, covering her eyes and gasping for breath. At first, she was unwilling to be outdone, and her ten fingers left clear marks on Li Chenghuan's back. Later, she didn't even have the strength to raise her hands.
Then the hand covering the eyes was firmly pulled away by a broad palm, and then a moist kiss fell on the hot eyelids.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Lin Nanjie was speechless and too lazy to open his mouth.
【I want to drink some water.】
The next second the water was delivered to your mouth.
Lin Nan moved his toes and said, "I'm hungry."
In the time it takes for an incense stick to pass, the chicken soup wontons were served.
Lin Nanjie stretched his back lazily: [I'm so sleepy, it's time to take a shower. ]
Li Chenghuan gently carried Lin Nanjie to wash up. Lin Nanjie was sleeping unconscious.
Lin Nan stayed in Zichen Palace for several days to recuperate. Every day, he either fed the green turtle or played with Li Jingyu, and stared at Jinyi. Until one day, when he looked in the mirror, he was surprised to find that his cheeks had become rounder. He felt that he could not waste his time any longer, so he righteously refused the request to continue living in Zichen Palace and returned to his own house with ease.
Lin Nanjie returned to the Censorate and carried out his work as usual every day.
The court seemed calm, but undercurrents were surging.
Until one night at the end of July, the day was calm and peaceful. As usual, Lin Nanjie went to bed early.
The long street in front of the house was deserted at night. At night, every household turned off the lights, and the whole long street fell into darkness. In the second half of the night, after a clear clapper sounded, it became even quieter. However, at this moment, the door of the inconspicuous Lin Mansion was knocked hard.
The knocking on the door was intermittent, but it never stopped. Li Dai was awakened in the middle of the night. He yawned, put on his clothes, opened the door, and wanted to see who was causing trouble in the middle of the night.
Who knew that as soon as he opened the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood. He stepped back subconsciously, raised the lantern and took a closer look, and saw a man with a completely unrecognizable face lying at the door of the house. The man's body was torn and tattered, and the blood scab had been there for who knows how long. The bloody and rotten smell made Li Dai almost vomit.
He was startled: "Who is it?"
The man said nothing, holding a letter tightly in his hand, and walked forward tremblingly: "Master Lin, please... make the decision for me..."
After saying this, he fainted.
Li Dai looked at the person lying on the ground, and hurriedly sent someone out to call a doctor. He then hurriedly knocked on Lin Nanjie's door and handed him the letter.
Lin Nanqi was woken up from his sleep. After understanding the whole story, he did not dare to delay and opened the letter. Both of them were stunned.
This letter was written in human blood.
Li Dai didn't know what was going on: "I have asked the servants to put the man in the chamber and have asked a doctor to come and see him."
"Sir, what does this letter say?"
