Chapter 80: Carefree

Seeing that Lin Yizhi was so nervous, Zhao Che looked at her gently, "Are you unwilling to sleep?" Or is it with me that makes you feel uncomfortable? ”

Lin Yizhi lowered his head, "The folk girl has never seen the world, and it is inevitable that she will be nervous in front of the saint."

Zhao Che held her hand, "The palms are sweaty, it seems that I am really nervous!" You can rest assured, I don't like to force others. If you don't want to, I won't embarrass you. ”

Lin Yizhi looked at Zhao Che with some surprise, his palm was warm and strong, making her a little overwhelmed.

After a long time, Lin Yizhi realized that it was a bit rude for him to do this, and hurriedly lowered his head, "Emperor Xie." ”

Zhao Che lay on the bed by himself and closed his eyes, "It's really hard to deal with court affairs every day! Now it's time to get some rest! ”

She didn't know how to answer, so she looked at him in silence. He seemed relaxed now, with a soft smile on his face. Although he was smiling during the day, the smile was not from the heart. She had seen too many smiles like that in the Red Face Pavilion, all of which were pretended to cater to others.

For a moment, Lin Yizhi felt that he was not an emperor, just an ordinary person. Soon Zhao Che's breathing became even and he fell asleep.

Lin Yizhi looked at Zhao Che's sleeping face, gently covered him with the quilt, lay down beside him gently, closed his eyes, and temporarily put down all the thoughts in his heart.

Lin Yizhi wanted to keep a certain distance from Zhao Che, but was hugged by Zhao Che. She tried to break free, but his strength was too great to escape. After trying hard for a while, she had to give up.

His embrace was so warm, it made her feel like she was back in the arms of her mother when she was a child. She thought her thoughts were a little funny, shook her head, and closed her eyes as well.

After sleeping that night, Zhao Che named Lin Yizhi as a noble concubine and gave her Penglai Palace.

Lin Yizhi was a little strange, and he didn't know why Zhao Che was so good to her.

She thought about it for a long time and didn't figure it out. Zhao Tingxuan was good to her, he just wanted to use her, so what was Zhao Che good to her for? There wasn't a single thing in her that he could use to his advantage. Since she can't figure it out, she won't be entangled, thinking that she can always know after a long time.

Not long after arriving at the palace, Bi Qing took Lin Yizhi to greet the queen. Biqing is the personal maid given to her by Zhao Che, and she is considered a qualified palace maid in the palace.

When I arrived at Qingning Palace, the queen was embroidering. She is really a national color and fragrance, with a goose egg face and willow eyebrows, and a pair of apricot eyes. She was graceful, and although she was not powdered, she was still more delicate than the flowers in the vase.

Lin Yizhi kowtowed and saluted: "My sister has seen the queen!" ”

The queen put down the embroidery in her hand and said with a solemn smile: "Sister, please get up, sit down!" ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" She stood up.

The queen looked at her with a look of wanting to say something. In the end, she still made up her mind and asked, "I heard that my sister was sent to the palace by the prince, right?" ”

She nodded, "Yes." ”

The queen looked at her thoughtfully, and asked again and again, "Lord Wang, how is he now?" ”

Lin Yizhi raised his eyes and looked at the queen, and smiled slightly: "Lord Wang, he is very good." ”

The queen's eyes were a little gloomy, and she said to her, "That's good." It's nothing, you just go back first! ”

Lin Yizhi nodded, after coming out of Qingning Palace, her intuition told her that the relationship between the queen and Zhao Tingxuan should not be simple.

She smiled, what did this matter have to do with her, she was just a pawn.

The sky was cloudless, and several goshawks were hovering in the air, and Lin Yizhi looked up like this. Now she regrets her decision a little, if she didn't sell herself to bury her father, she wouldn't be a pawn of others now.

Her father has always forbidden her to laugh, although she has never shown her face, but it is still a joke in her eyes. My father's last wish before he died was to let her get out of there, and how could she not agree.

Zhao Che was reviewing the recital in the imperial study, and a man in black suddenly appeared, knelt on the ground and said, "Back to the emperor, the matter has been investigated clearly." ”

He put down the fold in his hand, "Say it!"

Lin Yizhi is the daughter of Lin Gu, a wealthy businessman in the capital, and due to the middle of her family, she was forced to laugh at Hongyan Pavilion to pay off her debts and treat her illness. A few days ago, Lin Gu died, she sold herself to bury her father, and was bought by the prince. "Humanity in black.

Zhao Che's eyes showed a hint of distress, "A girl laughing in that kind of place, I'm afraid she has suffered a lot." What else did you find? Let's talk about it together! ”

The man in black glanced at him with some embarrassment, "The prince gave her a bottle of Heding Red, I'm afraid it's ......."

He said calmly: "Tell the truth!" ”

Only then did the man in black say: "I'm afraid I want to poison the emperor." Your Majesty, do you need your subordinates to secretly solve this matter? ”

He smiled lightly: "No need, I have my own opinions!" Go down. ”

"Yes, the subordinates are retired!" With that, he disappeared into the imperial study.

Zhao Che closed the fold, recalled the distant memory, and muttered, "Yizhi, do you still remember me now?" You've suffered a lot over the years! ”

Ten years ago, Zhao Che was not the emperor, and he sneaked out of the palace one day, but was accidentally hit by a carriage and injured. The man in the pink dress appeared beside him, she looked at the bleeding knee on his leg that had been hit by the carriage, and asked him with teary eyes, "It hurts, doesn't it?" "It's like she's the one who hurts.

She took him home and found Lang Zhong to bandage his wounds. He had been playing very well in her house those days, but he was anxious for the people in the palace.

Zhao Che knew that her name was Lin Yizhi, and he fell in love with this innocent girl.

When he was brought back to the palace, Lin Yizhi gave him a branch of osmanthus, saying that when the osmanthus bloomed again, he must come to see her, but he never thought that this reunion would be ten years later.

When Zhao Tingxuan brought her into the palace, Zhao Che recognized her at a glance, but he couldn't recognize her. Now she is no longer as carefree as she was at the beginning, and there is always a lingering sorrow between her eyebrows.

Lin Yizhi felt a little uncomfortable behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Zhao Che standing behind her, his smile was so bright. She hurriedly bent down to salute, but was stopped by him.

She looked at Zhao Che puzzled, and he smiled gently, "There will be no need to salute if there are no outsiders in the future." What are you looking at, so distracted. ”

"It's nothing, just a little envious of this eagle in the sky." She said with her head held high.

Zhao Che followed her gaze and saw the two goshawks soaring freely in the sky. He smiled, "If you want freedom, I can give it to you too." ”

She shook her head, "If it's my own freedom, don't do it. Your Majesty, do you want tea? ”

He smiled, "If you make the tea yourself, then of course I want to drink a cup." ”

The two returned to Penglai Palace, Lin Yizhi turned his back to him and took out the poison in his sleeve. After a moment's hesitation, she dropped a drop into the teacup. She doesn't like to procrastinate, and when it's over, she doesn't owe anyone anything more.

The poison wafted through the tea, and it looked like regular tea. She took a deep breath, then turned around and calmly handed the tea to Zhao Che, "Your Majesty, please drink tea!" ”

Zhao Che picked up the teacup and looked at her with a smile, "I'm afraid this is the best tea I've ever drunk in my life!"

Lin Yizhi saw that he put the teacup to his mouth and was about to drink it, when her heart suddenly ached, and she reached out and hit the teacup to the ground.

Zhao Che looked at her and blamed, "Aren't you afraid that this tea will burn you?" ”

Lin Yizhi's expression was a little evasive, he put his hands behind his back and lowered his head, "The concubine is rude." ”

Zhao Che sighed and took her hand over. Her index finger was scratched by the teacup, and a trace of blood spilled from the wound.

Zhao Che put her finger into his mouth, sucked out some residual blood for her, then took out the handkerchief and carefully bandaged her wound.

Lin Yizhi looked at him like this, his heart was a little warm, and the corners of his eyes moistened unconsciously.

Zhao Che looked up and saw it, reached out and touched her cheek, and said distressedly: "Look, I'm crying bitterly." Don't be so reckless in the future, or I'll hurt too. ”

She nodded, her voice a little choked, "Emperor Xie cares." ”

After that, Lin Yizhi never got started. The better Zhao Che treats her, the more embarrassed she feels. Because she knew that Zhao Che was really good to her, and had no purpose. She didn't know why, but that's what she believed.

Zhao Tingxuan didn't receive any news from her for a long time, and finally couldn't help but come to her. Seeing him coming, Lin Yi was a little scared in his heart. Sitting across from him, she never dared to look at him.

Zhao Tingxuan drank tea and said to her, "You shouldn't have forgotten my purpose for letting you enter the palace, right?" Or do you covet this glory and riches, so you want to betray me? ”

Although Zhao Tingxuan's tone was calm, it made Lin Yizhi feel frightened. She lowered her head and defended: "No, the slave family just didn't find a suitable opportunity. ”

Zhao Tingxuan walked to her side with a wicked smile, took her into his arms, and said in her ear in a charming voice: "What he can give you, I can also give it to you." When I become the emperor, you will be the queen above the ten thousand people under this person. On the eighth day of the next month, the goal must be achieved. Do you understand? ”

She closed her eyes, tears sliding down her face from the corners of her eyes.

Zhao Che found that Lin Yizhi always liked to be alone in a daze recently, and his brows were furrowed tightly. He knew that Zhao Tingxuan was running out of time for her.

He came behind Lin Yizhi, smelled her sweet fragrance, and hoped that time would go slowly.

Feeling the breath behind her, Lin Yizhi turned around and saw Zhao Che, the sadness in her eyes became a little thicker.

Zhao Che whispered in her ear: "The osmanthus flowers in the Imperial Garden have been blooming recently, let's go over and enjoy the flowers together." ”

It's another year when osmanthus flowers are in full bloom, Lin Yizhi remembered the young man under the osmanthus tree that year, and he had forgotten their agreement a long time ago, right?

Lin Yizhi smiled helplessly, even if he remembered it, what could he do, today is no longer the same as before, and she can't help herself now.

The osmanthus flowers in the Imperial Garden are full of branches, and when the wind blows gently, the fragrance of the flowers spreads. They sat side by side under the osmanthus tree, and tea and pastries were placed on the stone table.

Lin Yizhi looked at the osmanthus in the distance, and the sadness between her eyebrows gradually dissipated, she was still the carefree little girl in pink back then.

Zhao Che stared at Lin Yizhi with deep affection, the person he was thinking about was now close in front of him, making him even look gentle.

He picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and brought it to her lips, "Come, how about tasting this osmanthus cake?" ”

Lin Yizhi opened his mouth and took a small bite. The fragrance of osmanthus spread in her mouth, and she rarely smiled from the bottom of her heart.

These days of getting along, Lin Yizhi feels that Zhao Che is a gentle person, but he rarely seems to set foot in the queen's bedroom, could it be that he also noticed the unusual relationship between Zhao Tingxuan and the queen?

Lin Yizhi asked him tentatively: "Your Majesty, the queen is really a beautiful woman, why don't you go to her?" ”

Zhao Che's eyes dimmed, he and the queen are just a marriage of interests, more of a brother and sister, where does the love between men and women come from? What's more, he has already given all his affection to the person in front of him.

For so many years, Zhao Che also wanted someone to talk to, and since Lin Yizhi asked, he told her.

"The queen was originally the daughter of the prime minister, she grew up in the palace since she was a child, and she has a good relationship with our brothers. I have always regarded her as a younger sister, not to mention that Tingxuan and her have made a private agreement for life very early. ”
