twenty
Later, he ascended to the throne smoothly, and there were people planning to support everything, so that Liu Zhi almost forgot how unbearable he was when he was a teenager.
It wasn't until he sat on the throne for twenty years and found that everyone around him was vain and wronged, competing for glory, that he was shocked to realize that everything was boring, and there was no sincere person around him.
Ten years later, the Yi envoy paid tribute and offered him a group of Yi women.
He looked up and fell in love with the woman who was seven or eight points similar to his former queen.
Since then, he woke up suddenly and found that he had long fallen in love with Lin Chuyi.
When did you get this thought?
may be that he contracted smallpox, only Lin Chu's waist was not afraid of death, and took care of him day and night; It may be the second year of marriage, in the early days of seizing the heir, when he was suspicious and resentful by the emperor, and was cowardly and almost wanted to die, only Lin Chuwaist stood beside him and said to him: "Lin Fu and I are behind you at that time."
It may also be earlier, when she kidnapped him while she was still in the boudoir and forced him to get married.
Anyway, he had fallen in love with her for a long time, but he hid this love too deeply, hiding it from others and his own heart.
In the first half of his life, he couldn't live wantonly because of his low birth, and he suffered a lot of cold eyes along the way.
His father's suspicion of him, his lover, and even his slave's abandonment and betrayal of him all made him bitter.
So when he was young, when Lin Liu, the second lady of the Lin Mansion, gave him a little kindness, he thought it was love.
It wasn't until his twilight years that he figured out that the only person he really loved was Lin Chujiao, but when he understood this truth, it was too late.
When he first got married, he was grateful to her, but these gratitudes were consumed in getting along day after day and year after year.
Because Lin Chuwaist was different from what he imagined, she didn't listen to him enough.
In the first year of his ascension to the throne, he wanted the real power of the Shu State, and the first thing he did was to depose the military attachΓ© in the court, and he did not want to fight with the Yi people, he only needed the other party to pay tribute on time every year, but those ministers advocated the use of force and discouraged him from playing one book after another.
They said that the Yi people were fierce and greedy and warlike in their bones, and if they did not drive them to the west of the river fifty miles away with a few battles, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not advance south again within a hundred years and threaten the rivers and mountains of Shu.
Liu Zhi was extremely angry, and in a fit of anger, he wanted to execute all these important ministers of the court, but Lin Chuyi wanted to hinder him at this time.
She knelt for three days and three nights in the snowy night of winter, begging him to take back his life, she said, the world was initially decided, the foundation was still unstable, and these old ministers were the roots of Shu, if they were executed, it would be equivalent to pulling out the roots of Shu with their own hands.
But he is the emperor, how can he be afraid of the Lin family, how can he change his mind because of a woman's words? So he put her claustrophobic in the Changqiu Palace, and all the ministers were executed.
A few years later, he brought his young love Lin Liu into the palace and named her a concubine, and the Lin Mansion fell soon after, and Lin Chu also died at the waist.
But he didn't wake up until so long later, and only then did he remember how good Lin Chu's waist was.
In the last ten years of his life, Shu was too heavy on literature and light on military force, resulting in insufficient military strength, and the Yi people became more and more domineering and repeatedly invaded, so he died when the Shu State Mansion was about to collapse.
When he found out that he was reborn, he was extremely happy, and when he came back in this life, he had already made up his mind, as long as Lin Chuyi was obedient, he would pay back a hundred times the amount he owed her in his previous life.
But when he woke up, it was all different.
Obviously, in his previous life, Lin Chuyi kidnapped him, and the two spent a day and a night together in the wilderness, and he was forced to marry her. But how did this life become that the two were kidnapped by the Yi tribe?
And why did Lin Chujiao return to the Lin Mansion first? Shouldn't she really want to marry him at this time?
Originally, he suspected that this incident was related to Xie Xiao, but Xie Xiao was seriously injured at that time, and it didn't look like a fake.
So what went wrong with all this?
Liu Zhi retracted his thoughts, looked at Xie Xiao who looked like a gentleman in front of him, knowing that he was pretending, and his eyes were more gloomy.
This Xie Xiao is not a simple character, in the last life, if Xie Xiao hadn't been moved, it would be impossible to say whether the world of Shu was in the hands of the Liu family.
"In that case, Mr. Xie will take care of himself."
After saying this, Liu Zhi didn't even look at Zhao Liang, treated him as air, and swept past him.
Although Liu Zhi didn't have any real power, he was a prince anyway, Zhao Liang didn't dare to offend, and immediately forgot what he was looking for, and immediately chased after him.
When everyone here dispersed, Xie Xiao glanced at the top of the rockery, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "People are gone, you can come out." β
Lin Chu's waist was a little high, and there was a pile of rugged gravel under her feet, Xie Xiao saw her pause slightly, smiled and sighed, and naturally stretched out a hand.
Want to help her? Lin Chuwaist was a little hesitant.
"What? Miss Lin thinks Xie has dirty hands? Xie Xiao stared at her with a smile, and her pretty Danfeng eyes rose slightly.
"Nope." Lin Chu had no choice but to lean forward and stretch out, but the moment she held Xie Xiao's hand, she was a little stunned and frowned.
is obviously a noble child, but why is the cocoon on Xie Xiao's palm thick and hard, rough like this?
When she was a child, she once touched Lin Weiliang's big hands, which were also so rough, but it was not surprising, because Lin Weiliang had lived with his grandfather since he was a child on the border far from Shangjing, where the environment was harsh, and the Yi people often came to attack, Lin Weiliang also rehearsed with the army's work and rest, and it was not strange that his hands were covered with thick calluses for more than ten years.
But this Xie Xiao, who lives in Shangjing all the year round, lives the life of a noble son, how can he give birth to such a thick cocoon?
Could it be that he has been going to the border with his uncle in private?
Lin Chu steadied himself on the ground, let go of his hand, remembered the conversation between Liu Zhi and him just now, and couldn't help asking, "Last time I stabbed you, you almost died?" β
"You care about me?"
Xie Xiao asked her with interest.
He was facing the sun, his eyes squinted slightly, and he was so beautiful that Lin Chu's waist trembled a little.
She steadied herself, forced a smile, and raised her eyes to look at him: "Of course, Gongzi Xie was injured for me, if I didn't care, wouldn't I be blind to your kindness."
Xie Xiao smiled, quickly covered the loss in his eyes, and said, "It's not like I'm dying, it's just that it hurts for a few days." β
Lin Chuyun knew that he was lying.
She later remembered that the people of the Yi tribe were naturally cunning, and in order to defeat the enemy with one move, they often poisoned the blade of the knife, and the poison of the Yi tribe was too dangerous, even if the antidote was taken within half a day, it would cause great damage to the person's body.
But in Xie Xiao, he just said a word.
Thinking of this, a strange emotion surged in Lin Chu's heart.
She thought about it, no matter what Xie Xiao meant, she had to tell him clearly today, she thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Gongzi Xie, I am not a casual woman, I don't like to be unclear with other men, there is no reason to take advantage of others in vain, if I have anything to help you, please say it directly." β
Xie Xiao's eyes were indistinct, as if he wanted to look through her, and after a pause, he held the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "You mean, I have ulterior motives?" β
I don't know why, Lin Chuyin always felt that there was unspeakable grievance in his smile.
"Gongzi Xie, isn't it? Now that the prince is in decline, you help me three times and twice, don't you want to pull my Lin Mansion into the prince's party? But I'm disappointed to you, my Lin clan doesn't have any big vision, and I don't want to be involved in this battle for succession. β
Xie Xiao's aunt Xie Sugui was the queen and gave birth to a son, Liu Yin, who was named the crown prince, but the situation in the DPRK and China was dangerous.
And Emperor Shu has reached the twilight of his life, and he has begun to be a little mediocre in the decision-making of some things, and a few days ago, because of a small mistake made by the prince, he had the intention of changing the prince.
As the prince's party, it is also reasonable for Xie Xiao to woo the Lin family.
"Lin Chu's waist." Xie Xiao suddenly called her name, and there was no smile on her face, "The Lin family doesn't want to get involved in the battle for succession, so what about you?" β
Will you help Liu Zhi then?
Lin Chujiao was a little dazed, not understanding what he meant by this, and said, "Gongzi Xie said that he laughed, I am a descendant of the Lin family, so naturally I will not help anyone." β
Xie Xiao lowered his head and shook his head with a smile.
He didn't know if he should believe what she was saying.
In the winter of the year before last, Lin Chuyin went to the Chenghuang Temple with his mother to offer incense, and met Liu Zhi in the temple, and actually openly gave his personal handkerchief, this scene was seen by many people.
On the day of the spring equinox last year, Liu Zhi accidentally broke his ribs on the martial arts field, and when Lin Chuyin learned the news, he completely forgot his identity, and even bought Liu Zhi's house to find out about Liu Zhi's condition.
And many, many more......
This one by one, it is not that he wants to remember, but he can't ignore it.
It seemed like blood was dripping in his heart, but he had no identity and qualifications, so he could only silently retreat to the side and respect her choice.
He wanted to help her behind her back, hoping that she would get what she wanted to marry Liu Zhi, but what happened half a month ago seemed to give him hope.
On that day, he returned to Beijing from the border gate on a starry night, never expecting to meet her, and when Lin Chujiao informed Liu Zhi that she had kidnapped him to the suburbs, he understood her purpose.
It's just that I want to marry Liu Zhi.
At that time, he had already made a plan in his heart, no matter what Lin Chuyin asked him to help do, he would agree.
It's just that Lin Chuyi's words were beyond his expectations.
I don't know if she is worried that this matter will affect the Lin Mansion or .....
I really don't like Liu Zhi anymore.
Xie Xiao's eyes were slightly bright, "Xie really wants to win over the Lin family, if Miss Lin doesn't want to, forget it." At last, as if he had thought of something, he took out a silver needle from his bosom: "If the dancing girl pretends to be dizzy, pierce it with this needle, and she will surely wake up." β
This needle came at a really good time, and Lin Chuyin couldn't care so much at this time, so he only hesitated for a second before connecting the needle.
Said gratefully: "Except for letting the Lin Mansion join the prince's camp, if I can do anything else, I will definitely help you." β
Calculate the time, Xie Xiao is going to go to the border with his uncle, Lin Chuyun suddenly remembered that in his previous life, Xie Xiao seemed to meet his beloved woman on the way, and he would commit suicide later.
With a hint of pity, Lin Chuwaist kindly reminded: "Gongzi Xie, when you go to the border this time, you must not be greedy for beauty, and you must not harm others." β
