Chapter 53: Calm Again
Spring, summer, autumn and winter, early summer is naturally in the middle of summer, people today do not notice a little, they all say that it is eventful autumn and in this midsummer is not an eventful time.
Busy things through every night in this summer, tonight's night is easy to give people a little lazy, even the crescent moon in the sky and the stars hide from the cats, flickering, a little happy.
Tonight's night was extremely quiet, revealing a hint of unnaturalness, and the faint chirping of cicadas seemed to be a little excessive. The night was a little dry, and the breeze blew through and blew away lightly.
Lin Qing stayed in the study all day, and even the meals were sent into the study by Xiaohuan and Yiyi, as if they had a great interest in books.
After dinner, it was already completely dark, and only the two stone lamps in front of the Jingyi Hall still emitted a faint light. The light passed through the window of the study, and the candle flame in the study was reflected on Lin Qing's purple figure, slightly overlapping the shadows, and the figure of Lin Qing was a little erratic.
Rubbing his eyelids, which were almost a little unopenable, Lin Qing felt that his brain was a little insufficient, and he had never had this situation before when he was stirring up the storm in the workplace and officialdom, this body was really useless.
Stretched out a delicate hand to support the table, slowly stood up, suddenly, a trace of dizziness poured into the back of the head, some couldn't stand, hurriedly stretched out the other hand to help the table, this is the ability to stand firmly, the snow-white teeth clenched their teeth, forced themselves to overcome this feeling of vertigo.
After a long time, Lin Qing walked out of the study with a calm face and some stiff steps.
Xiaohuan and Yiyi were waiting in the front hall at this time, and when they saw Lin Qing coming out, they hurriedly said, "Niangniang"
"Hmm" Lin Qing replied calmly, then raised his chin, his eyes touching the dark night outside the palace gate. A wisp of breeze slipped in quietly, blowing the hair of Lin Qing's ears and temples, and lifted a few strands of hair to Lin Qing's delicate lips, playfully attached to them, dancing happily.
Gently brushing the hair stuck to his lips with his hand, Lin Qing walked out of the hall with a calm look. The purple palace costume is a little fluttering in the breeze, driving the dark purple ribbon to dance lightly, showing a touching beauty.
The little feet in the shoes touched the cool earth, and the slight sound echoed in the silent air. The crescent moon that had originally flickered quietly revealed a corner, and the silver light spread through tens of thousands of miles on Lin Qing's body.
As if feeling the coolness of the moonlight, Lin Qing raised his head slightly, and half of the crescent moon was reflected in his dark eyes. Lin Qing looked up at the distant crescent moon like this, and his thin figure was placed in the shadows, making people feel a little weak, but it was a little strange.
I don't know how long it has been, Lin Qing unconsciously looked at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, as if he had fallen into some kind of strange time and space.
"Niangniang..."In the silence, Xiaohuan's crisp voice came out from afar, Lin Qing's eyes shrank, and then returned to normal.
"It's not early, it's cold outside, let's go back and rest," Xiaohuan continued to say crisply.
"Hmm..."Lin Qing said in a muffled voice.
Finally forgetting to glance at the crescent moon, Lin Qing turned around and walked into the hall and disappeared into the darkness. Xiaohuan looked up at the dark sky a little strangely, saw nothing, and then hurried after it.
The night was as usual, time was quiet, Lin Qing's eyes seemed to have magical power, and the crescent moon on the horizon suddenly disappeared, making people nowhere to find it.
It's rare that the night is peaceful......
The next day, Lin Qing got up early in the morning, and the sick leave had finally passed, and the good morning of Cilin Palace still had to go.
As before, Lin Qing finished breakfast and went to Cilin Palace, accompanied by Xiaohuan.
Lin Qing hadn't seen the Queen Mother Wang for a while, and he felt that his memories were a little raw.
About half an hour, Lin Qinghe appeared in front of the Cilin Palace.
Lin Qing raised his head and looked at the three big characters on the plaque in front of the palace, his heart was slightly calm, and he walked in with a calm face.
As soon as I entered, I saw that the hall was full of people, and the concubines from all the halls had almost arrived, chattering about something.
And the Queen Mother Wang is still in the first seat, her face is pretended, as if she hasn't woken up, and she can only speculate from the corners of her ears that occasionally move slightly, she is paying attention to this.
"Yo, isn't this Concubine Jing, how can you be willing to come to Cilin Palace" As soon as Lin Qing came in, the concubines found out, and heard a slightly snarky voice coming out of the voice of a gorgeously dressed woman at the front.
Lin Qing's eyes turned slightly, and at the same time he was looking for memories of this person in his heart, it was Zhang Xiurong among the nine concubines, the eldest daughter of Zhang Yu, the secretary of the Criminal Department of the Dynasty.
"Zhang Xiurong, what are these words, this palace has always remembered the queen mother in his heart, but his body is not angry, and he can't come to say goodbye to the queen mother." Lin Qing said calmly, making it impossible to see through what she was thinking.
"Really? Your Majesty was in love with Concubine Jing the night before," a sour voice came out of Zhang Xiurong's thin red lips.
The whole hall had already quieted down, and the other concubines all looked at each other with uncertain expressions, some with smiles, some with calm faces, and some with expressionless eyes, all with different expressions.
"This palace is rare and loved by Your Majesty, so I accompanied this palace in Jingyi Hall the night before, if this angered Zhang Xiurong, Zhang Xiurong even invited Your Majesty." Lin Qing said calmly with a closed face.
"You... You wait... I..."
"Okay" Zhang Xiurong was about to say something, when the voice of the Queen Mother Wang came from above, interrupting her.
"Queen Mother" Zhang Xiurong's expression was suddenly a little panicked, turned around, and knelt in the hall.
"The concubine asks for peace to the queen mother" Lin Qing stepped forward slightly, and said calmly.
"Well, let's get flat, my body is finally getting better, but I have to take care of it." Queen Mother Wang's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said slowly.
"Thank you for your mother's care"
"Take a seat," Wang said.
"You can get up too," Wang Shi said with a slight blink of his eyes and an expressionless face.
"Thank your mother" Zhang Xiurong got up in a panic, and glanced at Lin Qing behind him, revealing jealousy and resentment.
"The emperor has been very busy recently, you all take it easy, help him a lot, don't let him worry about it......" Wang narrowed his eyes and said something innocuous and trivial.
The caterpillar of time quietly reached the end, and when Lin Qing and Tang Xiu walked out of Cilin Palace, it was not early, and the sun climbed into the air.
The two chatted casually, walking in the direction of the back hall, the sun hit the backs of the two, shining the black waterfall.
