Chapter 213: Let Go and Forgive the Hat King (23)
"I know about the blood test." Lin Du remembered that Chu Mo had told her, "It was arranged by the prince of Qi for our prince, otherwise our prince would have died at the age of eight." King Qi is a very good person, merciful. Therefore, our prince is about to ascend the throne, and he will not forget to rehabilitate the king of Qi. ”
"yes." Zhao Mu's eyes were dodgy, a little unnatural.
"It's a pity that King Qi died too early. For the prince, he is a father-like role. Emperor Chen is not worthy of being the father of the prince, and the missing role of the father in the prince's life is largely made up by the king of Qi. Speaking of which, Lin Duan was very regretful, "If King Qi was still alive, maybe the prince would not have lived such a miserable life." ”
"Maybe." Zhao Mu followed Lin Duan's words.
Lin Du got back on track: "What do you remember?" ”
"At that time, the relationship between the prince and his brothers was not good." Zhao Mu thought of Xiao Chumo, who was isolated and helpless back then, and sighed, "No one wants to play with the prince." His brothers thought he was ......"
Zhao Mu couldn't say that word.
However, he didn't say that Lin Duan also knew, and it was estimated that he was a "mongrel".
Zhao Mu skipped that word and continued: "Even the eunuchs and maids in the palace feel the same way. Some slightly more powerful eunuchs and palace maids would even insult the prince like this in person. His brothers would also find ways to bully him and beat him. ”
Lin Duan can imagine that Chu Mo was like this when he was fifteen years old, so before he was fifteen years old, after he was eight years old, his life would be even more difficult.
There was an almost innocent cruelty in the child, and Chu Mo had no power to fight back at that time, so he could only be bullied.
She thought, her eyes moistening slightly.
Lin Du is really a girl with a very soft heart, and she retains the greatest kindness and tenderness to everything in the world.
She precipitated her emotions for a moment: "Zhao Mu, you have experienced so much with the prince, your feelings must be very deep, right?" ”
"The prince once saved my life." Zhao Mu's words didn't seem to answer Lin Duan's question, but it was actually the best answer.
Lin Du suddenly became a little curious: "Then you still want to serve me in the future because of the prince's punishment?" ”
Zhao Mu blushed and was embarrassed: "Princess, I didn't know what happened to me at that time." Seriously injured and feverish, I saw the medicine and gauze sent by your maid. Suddenly, I had a very strong emotion in my heart, and a voice told me that you would be my master from now on. ”
Lin Du was speechless, this is the role of the heroine's aura.
She returned to the topic: "I won't talk about the past anymore." Zhao Mu, since you know the painful past of the prince, then you should know very well that there is little long-term around the prince, and you are the only one. Your meaning to the prince, the prince's feelings for you, are extraordinary. In the future, don't think about the previous injury again. ”
"My subordinates have made a note of it." Zhao Mu only said that he had written it down, but did not agree.
"Go down." Lin Duan really wanted to find out what Zhao Mu was carrying on his body, and what the Shadow Gate was. But now we can't be in a hurry, just knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and we must not startle the snake.
In the next few days, Chu Mo came back later and later, and sometimes the sky was cloudy, and he only came back for half an hour, and then he had to go to the court again.
If he hadn't known that he liked Lu Tingyi, Lin Duan would have suspected that he was having an affair.
That night, Lin Du was awakened by the crow cry in the courtyard.
She couldn't help but complain that Lu Tingyi's sleep was too light, and if it was her own body, she wouldn't wake up even if it was thunder.
When she woke up, she couldn't sleep, and when Lin Duan saw that Chu Mo hadn't come back yet, she simply went to the kettle to wait for him.
As soon as Chu Mo pushed the door, Lin Duan handed the hot tea to him.
What followed was a heavy damp and stale aura on Chu Mo's body.
Lin Du felt uncomfortable and took a step back slightly, "Lord Wang, drink some hot tea to warm up." ”
Chu Mo felt that he had never drunk such a delicious tea, and it warmed all the way from his throat to his heart.
Lin Du looked at him with a touched face, and couldn't help but feel pantothenic acid in his heart, how much this person lacks love and warmth, and a cup of hot tea can be so moved.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Chu Mo walked into the house, and he used questions to cover up the turmoil in his heart.
Lin Du didn't poke Chu Mo's intentions either, "I was suddenly awakened by the sound of crows in the middle of the night, and I couldn't sleep anymore." ”
"That's right." Chu Mo picked up the teapot on the table and refilled another cup of tea for himself.
"What has the prince been busy with lately?" Lin Du was curious, "Why is it so damp on my body, and there is moss on the edges of my shoes." ”
Chu Mo subconsciously glanced at his shoes and didn't answer Lin Duan's question, "But the moisture on my body makes you uncomfortable?" ”
Lin Duan denied: "No, how can you be so squeamish." ”
It seemed that Chu Mo didn't want people to know what he had done.
Interesting.
Lin Dui had just discovered this interesting thing, and the next morning he was wondering where it was damp, dark, and mossy and Chu Mo had to go.
At this time, Rue came again.
It's just that she doesn't suspect that Rue Xiang has ulterior motives, and Rue Xiang doesn't give her the opportunity and reason not to doubt.
Rue Xiang Shen was mysterious, "Miss, the prince has been staying in the study every night these days. ”
"Let's take care of business." Lin Du didn't believe it, how could there be moss in the study, and it was so damp and gloomy?
"No, it's not." Rue Xiang leaned close to Lin Du's ear: "The slave and maid have secretly seen it, not long after the prince entered the study, there was no one in the study." ”
"How can you get close to Chu Mo's study? Do the guards all eat dry food? Lin Duan suspected that Rue Xiang had martial arts.
Rue Xiang explained: "There happened to be a few cats in the house that day, and the guards thought that someone was peeping, so they all went up to the house to chase them, and I saw through the crack in the side window that there was no one inside. ”
"It's a coincidence." Lin Du didn't believe Ruexiang's explanation, how could there be such a coincidental thing in the world.
A lot of coincidences, all of which are artificial.
What exactly is the secret of Rue?
Lin Du suddenly wanted to laugh, at this point, Chu Mo and Lu Tingyi coincided. The closest maid guards around the two people are actually people with ulterior motives.
She didn't know Ruexiang's intention to tell her about this, so she said perfunctorily: "I know, you go down first." ”
Rue Xiang retreated, and Lin Du began to speculate.
Chu Mo entered the study but was not in the study, and when he came back, he was full of yin and damp, and the edges of his shoes were stained with moss.
This shows that there must be a dark room under his study, so he is gone.
And the dark room doesn't see the light of day all year round, so he is damp.
Is there an edict in the dark room?
Lin Du shook his head, no, why did he read the edict for so long every day?
Even if the edict has a secret, it does not need to be placed in a dark room, because the dark room environment is so bad, if the edict is contaminated with moisture, it may damage the edict. In fact, he just found a secret compartment in the study to place it.
