Chapter 36: The Effect is Quite Good

The next day, Lin Qing was found by the people of the Prefecture of Arrest. However, it was a bit difficult to give an explanation about why Zhao Zimu was with him.

Let's not talk about how she appeared beside to Lin Qing. It was very suspicious that she appeared at Spiritual Temple which was heavily guarded by the Armed Escort not to mention that she saved Lin Qing. Lin Qing didn't want her to be exposed in front of people, be implicated and sink into danger.

Zhao Zimu didn't let him think about it for too long. She asked for a set of uniform from the Prefecture of Arrest and put it on. Then, she smeared her face with the things she had brought with her. A handsome young guard appeared in front of Lin Qing. If Ningan was here, she would definitely recognize that this person was Zhao Zhong.

Lin Qing looked at the woman in front of him with complicated eyes. He pinched her cheek and said with unclear meaning, "I actually didn't know that you are so good at disguising. If you want to leave one day, is it that you can easily get rid of me?"

Zhao Zimu laughed, "Lord Qiansui is joking. How can Zimu leave? Zimu knows Qiansui's good towards Zimu. Moreover, will Zimu be able to escape Lord Qiansui's palm. Just one order from Lord Qiansui, the authorities, the Department of Supervision and the Prefecture of Arrest would hunt the whole capital. Not to mention escaping from the capital, even if I have wings, I wouldn't be able to escape your control."

Zhao Zimu said that sincerely. Lin Qing looked at her and nodded in satisfaction, "Mm, a tactful one."

There was a touch of triumph and joy in his voice. Zhao Zimu touched her nose and thought to herself, it turned out that this method (bootlick) worked on him.

This time, he was being schemed at. Jia Yi was heavily injured and was till lying down now. Jia Er was fortunate to have encountered Zhao Zimu and his life was saved. The people of the Prefecture of Arrest were wiped out not to mention those of the Department of Supervision.

Lin Qing's mood was very bad now. He was now filtering the mastermind of this over and over again in his mind.

Emperor Jinghui breathed a sigh of relief after Lin Qing safely escaped. He didn't expect that someone would be so daring to try to assassinate him while he was offering incense. Fortunately, he was called over by the empress dowager for a talk. Otherwise, the one who would be injured at this time would be him.

Emperor Jinghui's heart turned cold. Who wanted him death? Inside the imperial capital was the strictest place in the whole Great Liang. It was impossible for rebels to appear here. Also, the remnants of the previous dynasty had almost all been wiped out by the former emperors. Even if there were still remnants left, they could only linger in dark corners and wouldn't be able to cause storms. Then, who had such capabilities?

Emperor Jinghui remained puzzled even after pondering over it a hundred times.

Lin Qing looked at him in secret and said, "Your Majesty is in the prime of your life and your mightiness is spread through everywhere. You love the country and its people. Under your governance, the whole word ascended to a better life. There would be no one who would dare to disrespect you."

"Then, why would there still be someone who wants to kill zhen? Beloved official is speaking highly of zhen again," Emperor Jinghui said. Emperor Jinghui wa over forty-year-old now. He was a bit fat and swollen and indulged too much in pleasure-seeking. He also relied on those pills that would make him able to show his dragon prestige again which also caused him to be a bit blue-green in front of people all the time as if his body had been hollowed.
