What's Wrong With Being A Salted Fish?

Don't Touch My Tail 18

"Master Lin, what a coincidence."

Zhao Jingming also looked very embarrassed, and when asked by Minister Lin, he subconsciously greeted him.

Lin Zhuo on the side held his forehead speechlessly. Are you serious about what you said?

Minister Lin was also very confused, and his tone was even a little self-doubting: "Your Majesty, this seems to be my residence?"

You said what a coincidence when you saw me at my house? Is that true?

"..."

Zhao Jingming didn't know what to say, so he just remained silent.

He had deliberately chosen to climb over the wall near the alley, hoping to get to Lin Zhuo's yard quickly. He really didn't expect to run into Minister Lin!

If he had known this, he should have come in through the front door!

Zhao Jingming now feels extremely regretful. If he had walked in through the front door with dignity, he would not feel so guilty now.

He shouldn't have sought momentary pleasure. He hoped Lord Lin would not go to his brother to complain.

"Your Majesty, excuse me, where did you come from?"

If he was coming to visit the mansion, shouldn't the servants have notified me?

Zhao Jingming tried to ask Lin Zhuo for help, but Lin Zhuo silently looked away: I can't save you, just wait to die.

After Minister Lin said this, his eyes unconsciously scanned back and forth between Zhao Jingming. He made a bold guess in his heart but felt that this was not something a prince would do.

"Ahem, I just happened to pass by and thought of coming in to take a look..." Zhao Jingming's eyes were wandering.

Minister Lin nodded repeatedly to show that he was listening, and asked him with his eyes: What next?

"Then I passed by the alley next to me and thought it would be faster to climb over here..." Zhao Jingming was a little embarrassed and couldn't continue. He covered his face with one hand. Lin Zhuo vaguely saw that his face seemed to be a little red.

So he really climbed over the wall to get in? Why did a dignified prince not go through the main gate but climb over the wall of an official's house? What was his intention?

Minister Lin's expression changed back and forth, which was very interesting. Zhao Jingming's behavior directly disrupted everything he wanted to say to Lin Zhuo.

He didn't even know what he was here for!

Minister Lin tried to calm himself down, but Lin Zhuo felt that his father's tone still carried some resentment: "Prince, what do you want to talk to Qingping about?"

"It's nothing serious." Zhao Jingming replied.

"Then..." Minister Lin stretched out his tone, hoping that Zhao Jingming could understand what he meant.

Minister Lin hoped that Zhao Jingming, as a prince, would be more self-aware and leave if nothing happened, instead of staying at an official's house, lest it get out and cause bad news.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingming was thick-skinned. He sat directly next to Lin Zhuo and said, "it's okay. Lord Lin, there's no need to entertain me. I'll just chat with Xiaozhuo for a while and then leave."

He had no intention of staying to have dinner with Lord Lin, as that would be really depressing.

Zhao Jingming was thinking too much. Minister Lin was eager for him to leave and didn't want him to stay at all. He was also very dissatisfied with his action of sitting on Lin Zhuo's couch consciously.
