Lin Chong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You don't understand, I don't want to be the emperor. To be honest, I have always felt that living like this is quite tiring. I just don't accept his attitude. You said that I don't owe them anything. It's tiring."
I have worked so hard for him in vain for so many years, and it’s all that he didn’t say a word of gratitude. Now he still thinks that I am plotting against his country. Is there anyone more ridiculous than him in the world? "
Whenever he thinks about handing over what he has worked so hard for so long to this person who doesn't know how to repay his kindness, Lin Chong feels angry in his heart. Why should he? Why should he think that he should take it for granted?
to have it all?
Lin Chong was already a little drunk and couldn't speak clearly. He poked his chest vigorously: "Old Qiao, really, you are not me. You don't understand. I don't owe you anything."
These bastards, bastards, are all old bastards who cross rivers and burn bridges."
"Yes, yes, they are neither humans nor things, they are just a bunch of beasts in human skins, right? You have drunk too much today, you are already at this point, why didn't Mu Mu and the others come to pick you up?"
"Who will pick me up? Why pick me up? Let me tell you, I'm not going anywhere today, I'm going to live here! That bastard is still waiting for me to go back and surrender to him obediently, and be his Spring and Autumn Day.
Go ahead and dream, I won’t go back, just go to whoever you love.”
Jonas smiled bitterly. It seemed that he really drank too much. Normally, he would not say these words. He may not have been holding it in his heart for how long. It's better to say it all than to hold it in.
I feel much more comfortable in my heart.
Looking at the already dark sky and seeing no sign of anyone coming at the door, Jonas hesitated whether he should send him back or let him stay here tonight?
Just when he was in a dilemma no matter what choice he made, a person appeared from somewhere in the shadow: "The captain of the guard has told me that if His Majesty does not want to return to the palace tonight, let him rest here tomorrow.
The palace will send someone to pick him up in the morning."
It seemed that although there was no announcement, the two boys Mu Xi and Mu Mu still sent people to follow him around, which put Jonathan at ease. Since he didn't have to worry about his personal safety, it was okay to let him stay here for one night.
Nothing inconvenient.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chong stayed that night, and someone came to the door the next day.
"Miss Wen, Liu'er? You... why did you come to Nanjing?" Lin Chong was stunned by the people he saw in front of him.
Wang Chengen sent someone to take him back to the palace early in the morning. As soon as he returned to the palace, someone came to report the news, saying that someone outside the city gate asked to see him.
Lin Chong was still wondering who would come to him early in the morning. Could it be that Prince Heng insisted on staying in Nanjing after thinking about it all night?
As a result, after meeting the person, it was not King Heng or any other person looking for trouble. The person who came to see him was Wen Shaoxue. The person who had just heard someone mention it in his ears the day before, today
Suddenly appearing in front of his eyes, Lin Chong always felt as if he was still in a dream.
Wen Shaoxue obviously came here after a long and dusty journey. After seeing him, she smiled shyly: "Mr. Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Although she already knew that the other party's true identity was the Emperor, Wen Shaoxue still couldn't help but want to call him Mr. Lin, because as soon as she mentioned this title, those unforgettable moments from the past would reappear before her eyes and become vivid.
.
Only when she was called like this could she truly feel that those things were real and not just imaginary.
Lin Chong touched the back of his head. He really didn't know how to respond to her affectionate "Long time no see."
Just as he was talking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Wen Xiaotong standing aside. It seemed that he had never seen this child around Wen Shaoxue and the others before. When he was looking at him, he was also looking at him secretly. It seemed that he was
A clever child.
Wen Xiaotong had already known that Mr. Lin was actually the current emperor before he came here. He was secretly staring at others, but he was suddenly glanced at and lowered his head in fear.
According to those storytellers, the emperor has always been unpredictable and very difficult to get along with. Maybe if you say something wrong, he will chop off your head. Therefore, after he lowers his head, he dares to raise it again.
.Because he didn’t dare to look up, he didn’t see Lin Chong’s smile.
"Sir, this kid was rescued by my lady from a rich man some time ago. He wanted to steal someone's money bag to treat his sister, but he was discovered and beaten half to death. Fortunately, he met
My young lady just saved her life." Liu'er answered playfully.
"Really, he is a clever boy. You saved his life today, and maybe he will be of great help to you someday. Young man, what is your name?" Lin Chong asked pleasantly.
Maybe it was because he was drunk in the middle of the night after drinking yesterday. In short, he felt refreshed and in a much better mood after waking up this morning. The strange thing is that Jonathan didn't open his eyes when he woke up in the morning.
, he spoke feebly, and when he heard that he was leaving, his reaction was just to slam the door hard.
"In response to Your Majesty, Wen Xiaotong, a civilian, was...unintentionally rescued by shopkeeper Wen. Now he works with her as a helper to help them move things." Although he was very frightened because he suddenly saw the emperor, he still
He spoke fairly calmly and in an orderly manner, and his answers were well-formed without any deliberate flattery or self-expression.
Lin Chong felt more and more that this child would be a person capable of doing great things in the future, and then he thought about the wood and Mu Xi he had picked up before, and Yichen, who followed King Huai and didn't talk much but was quite capable of fighting.
"It's true that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Maybe one day we, the waves ahead, will die on the beach." Lin Chong lamented.
Several people opposite him looked at each other in confusion. No one understood what he meant by his sudden words, but at least Wen Xiaotong could feel that these words were a compliment to him, and he quickly saluted and thanked him.
Lin Chong suddenly had an idea in his head. It was really a difficult situation, and there was a bright future in another village. Yesterday when he told Jonathan that he wanted to open a store, he was still worried about not being able to find a reliable shopkeeper. Today, he has a shopkeeper himself.
It was delivered to your door, and even the smart guy had prepared it. It was really a timely gift.
