Chapter 59: Another Person's Possession

In short, it was already the next morning when Lin Qing woke up. The whole night of passion made him also lose control. When he straightened up, his waist was so sore because his muscles had been too tensed. He wanted to just never move again. Inexplicably, he felt that he had returned to the time when he was a small eunuch. Every day, he felt so tired that he wished to lie in bed forever.

When he thought about what had happened last night, he still felt a bit embarrassed. He also didn't know where that person went to. He heard Xiao Lianzi's voice outside the door. After thinking about it, he stood up while enduring the soreness.

Xiao Lianzi was stunned for a moment when he saw Lord Qiansui and moved away his gaze. He felt that there must be something wrong with his eyes. He had to find a doctor to look at them.

Lord Qiansui's expression was really like a stab to the eyes! It was like a sapling that had dewdrops on it; full of vitality and was unlimited bright like the scene in the spring time of March.

Xiao Lianzi didn't dare to probe for anything. He only respectfully handed Lord Qiansui a letter from Liang capital. If it wasn't an emergency, the party in the capital wouldn't write to Lord Qiansui at such a time.

Lin Qing was silent for a moment before accepting the letter. He opened it, looked at it and his eyes darkened. He crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it into the charcoal furnace at a side. He beckoned to let Xiao Lianzi retreat.

It happened to be lunch time when Zhao Zimu returned. She brought food. It seemed that she had gone to get food for him. Was it because she had guessed that he wouldn't be able to get up today?

Lin Qing sat down dejectedly at the table and waited for her. Zhao Zimu tactfully put down the food. Then, she sat down next to him and helped him rub his waist. Lin Qing felt embarrassed because of the rubbing. He picked up the bowl and chopsticks and ate muffled.

Zhao Zimu knew that he was presumably uncomfortable because of what had happened last night. She remembered that his reaction yesterday should be considered happy, right? Well, the thickness of Lord Qiansui's face had been used to deal with the hundreds of officials at court. There wasn't enough left when facing her. But it didn't matter. Looking at the reaction of Lord Qiansui yesterday, his face should become thicker after a few more times.

Lin Qing ate a few bites while holding the chopsticks. Then, he put them down, looked at her and hesitantly said, "The party in the capital had sent me news. We need to go back."

"What news?" Zhao Zimu frowned. Now, it was the second day of the new year. Even if those princes and officials wanted to do something, they would've waited till after the new year. What was the matter that they had to rush back on the second day of the new year?

Lin Qing didn't answer her. Zhao Zimu's fingertips gently tapped on the table and made some sound which seemed to hit Lin Qing's heart repeatedly. She didn't wait for Lin Qing's answer and said instead, "You are the husband and I am the wife. You and I share both the honor and the disgrace. We are already like two trees that had grown together as one. Your catastrophe is my catastrophe. Your difficulty would soon become my difficulty if you can't solve it. So, you don't have to hide anything from me."

After being with her for a long time, Lin Qing discovered that if this person didn't want to bother with you, she wouldn't even spare you a glance. Conversely, if she had put you in her heart, she would treat you well in a thousand of ways. Pledges of undying love and sweet words would be thrown at you without reservation.

However, she was right. There was no need to hide his affairs from her because his difficulties are her difficulties. He wanted to exclude her and solve it alone, but it was really unnecessary. Moreover, he wouldn't be able to hide it from her, so, he said, "His Majesty had already agreed to the marriage proposal of Xiongnu's little prince and is going to marry a princess to the Xiongnu. As soon as the spring arrives, the Xiongnu would come and take the princess away. I am the Inner Chief Eunuch. Now that the princess has to marry, there will be many things to be busy about. So, I have to go back to make preparation in advance."
