Chapter 84: Just right, I'm Also Hungry...

Zhao Zimu knew that although the northwest was a dangerous place, but Lin Qing couldn't stay here for long.

Since there were people in the capital who wanted him to stay here, there must also be people who didn't want him to stay here and would do everything possible to get him to go back.

The powers of the court were intertwined. Since princes could form their own fraction, why would people not stand on the highly influential Jiu Qiansui's side?

When the water is too clear, it has no fish. Those at the court who didn't want him to stay here, may have already exerted their influence. Presumably, the malpractice that had appeared in the absence of Jiu Qiansui, had been put on emperor Jinghui's desk through the hands of some people and let emperor Jinghui feel the importance of Lin Qing. If the frontier won a few battles at this time and take back Li City and Sha City, then, emperor Jinghui would probably be very eager to summon Lin Qing back.

She also didn't believe that Lin Qing didn't have a backup plan. Just by Lin Qing letting Xiao Lianzi stay in Liang capital, one wouldn't know what his intentions are. He also lay many chess pieces in the harem. Therefore, the move that Situ Yaohua moved to let him go to the northwest seemed dangerous, but in fact there was no danger.

Hence, as Zhao Zimu expected, as long as he passed a few months safely, emperor Jinghui would probably issue a decree to recall Lin Qing back to the capital.

But...

When she just mentioned it, Lin Qing's reaction became so intense. She felt a bit happy and a bit funny.

She leaned her head on his should a bit tired and whispered, "I don't have thoughts of wanting to leave you. I just want to give it a try. By staying at the northwest, I may gain the power to protect you. When the time comes, even if you can't fight against Situ Yaohua, I can help you fight. Or if you fail, I can also protect you and let people not dare to touch you. So, I want to stay here, join the army and use my military prestige to build a strong castle for you; so that you can be worry-free the latter half of your life."

The voice of the person behind him was soft and smothering. Like a sound of a drum, it lightly beat in his heart, making his heart sour and numb. Her investment was much more than he thought.

He stiffly said, "What if I don't agree?"

"Lin Qing..."

She just called his name, but it made his nose sore. He took a deep breath and said, "To be honest, you really don't have to be so good to me. You can have a better choice."

He said this sentence very solemnly, but the person behind him laughed sullenly because of this sentence. She released the hand that had been holding him, straightened her body, looked at him and smiled, "You are right. I should choose someone better. Choosing you is tantamount to choosing a big trouble. It is like suffering a loss, moreover, this loss has to be suffered a whole lifetime. It is a too great of a loss. So, it is better that I find someone else."

While she spoke, she got up to walk outside.

"You dare?! Stop!" Lin Qing said angrily. One hand slammed on the table. He looked at her fiercely like an animal whose tail had been trampled on by others.

Zhao Zimu touched her nose. She spread out her hand, looked at him with a smile that was not a smile and said, "See, do I still have a better choice?"

Lin Qing's face turned red and white from anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "No!"

I gave you an opportunity. It was you that didn't want it!

It was rare for Lin Qing to give a concession for once. He gave Zhao Zimu a chance to leave him, but before he could regret it, he had been stirred up by the person in front of him and retracted it. Also, it was by such a way that would let people get so irritated.
