Chapter 43: Do You Still Want Your Image?

A problem occurred after the Xiongnu came to Great Liang. Crown prince Situ Yaohua took this opportunity to trample his second little brother. Prime minister Lin and the imperial tutor ignored the threats of the Xiongnu for the benefit of the crown prince and let emperor Jinghui gift the enemy money and food. Some other small voices in the court were suppressed, so that they couldn't cause a storm. This was the current situation of the entire court.

Lin Qing looked for a long time at the eighth prince in front of him, but he didn't say a word. The little servants next to the eighth prince were so frightened that they didn't even dare to breath loudly.

Eighth prince Situ Yuxuan was ten-year-old this year. He was white -skinned and chubby. Although, he was clever and quick-witted, but he didn't like to study. He was most interested in food. Because his power was weak and his young age, he wasn't involved in the struggle for the throne.

Lin Qing looked at eighth prince who seemed to be like a god of wealth that came out of a painting and said, "Why is Your Highness so panicked? Did something terrible happened?"

Eighth prince composed himself and then looked at Lin Qing. There haven't been many times that Situ Yuxuan saw Lin Qing. He knew about Lin Qing mostly from rumors.

It was said that this person was vicious and merciless and no blood could be seen when he kills people. He framed loyal officials and disrupted the laws and disciplines of the imperial court. He was a wicked and evil person.

Seeing him closer today, he didn't seem as scary as the rumors. He was tall and thin with a handsome effeminate face. Although, he appeared a bit cold, but he didn't seem to have evil intent towards him (SYX).

Hence, Situ Yuxuan said, "I came to pay my respect to emperor father, but consort mother said that I shouldn't disturb emperor father too much. I couldn't think of a way to not disturb him, so, I panicked a bit and fell down accidentally."

While speaking, he looked at Lin Qing uncomfortably. Lin Qing chuckled slightly and didn't know what to say.

Sure enough, as long as it was a child from the imperial household, no matter how old he/she is, he/she would be more or less contaminated with the imperial habits and liked to hide their thoughts in their heart. The one in front of him looked simple but was the same.

Although, Situ Yuxuan's mother, consort Hui, was not as powerful as the empress and the consort of Morality (3rd prince mother), but she was tactful. With the help of her wisdom, she also got favored. Although, it couldn't bring Situ Yuxuan actual benefits, but through some other ways, she was able to make eighth prince more favored. See, eighth prince came to pay his respect to his emperor father at noon.

Lin Qing smiled at eighth prince and said, "His Majesty is in a very good mood today. If eighth Highness go in now, His Majesty would certainly not blame you. However, eighth prince must remember to not delay His Majesty for too long. His Majesty also has to rest."

Eighth prince felt strange that Lin Qing kindly reminded him. Although, this person looked like a bad person, but he didn't harm him. Situ Yuxuan who didn't understand didn't think too much. After he thanked Lin Qing, he walked into the inner hall.

Lin Qing froze for a moment, then chuckled a few times and said, "An interesting one." He also left after that.

At Qiansui's residence, Zhao Zimu felt boring sleeping under the tree for a long time. After she called Lin Er, Ling Er appeared in front of her fast and looked at her with watery eyes like a puppy.
