Xie Linlang didn't know all of this.
When the emperor came, the only thing she was worried about was whether he would tell about Xiang Cheng and Qin Jue, but probably not... After all, after so many years of love, she and Qin Jue were both prosperous and bad.
But even if he doesn't say anything, he won't do nothing.
This time he returned without success, and he would never give up. Even if he said he would wait for her in the capital, he would definitely find a way to speed up her journey back to Beijing.
What will he do? Transfer her directly from Xiangcheng? It should not, because the emperor will not listen to him in this matter.
Then... officials from the faction came to make trouble and put pressure on it
Well, although the emperor is a bit domineering, he is not so boring, so what will he do
Xie Linlang thought and frowned, standing in the yard pruning the branches.
If only she had an information network under her command, she would not be so passive if she knew what was going on outside.
But she used to use the information network of Emperor Shi before, and now she has done it alone, and the information network will naturally have to be rebuilt. This is not an easy task, it needs to be done step by step.
At this time, Qin Jue came.
Last night, a strong wind suddenly devastated the courtyard, and the ground was full of red leaves. Adding a few minutes of early morning dew, it looked even more chaotic and bleak.
Qin Jue stepped on those leaves, and stared at her with cold eyes.
Xie Linlang took a pair of scissors and glanced back at him, "Morning, what did you do last night?"
Qin Jue wasn't here last night. She didn't expect him to go out of the city to hunt down the emperor, because she didn't know that the emperor had assassinated Qin Jue, and she didn't know that the contradiction between them had reached the point of endless death, so she didn't know that the emperor had assassinated Qin Jue. Think about that.
Qin Jue walked to her side, reached out and took off a leaf on her head, and asked suddenly.
"Linlang, you joined the emperor's master at the age of eight, and it has been six or seven years now, right?"
Xie Linlang nodded, "Yes!"
While pruning the branches, she said, "It's been a long time... When I was a child, he was also kind to me, but..." It's just that the older you get, the more distant the relationship becomes.
Because his desire to control her is getting stronger and stronger, and his ideological differences with her are getting bigger and bigger.
Qin Jue lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly said, "There is news from the capital that the emperor has recently fallen in love with a... male servant."
As soon as he said this, Xie Linlang burst into laughter!
"Hahaha, what are the words of a tiger and wolf? This is too ridiculous!"
Qin Jue squinted and asked, "Why do you insist that this is fake news?"
Xie Linlang said indifferently while trimming the branches.
"Just think about it, if the emperor likes a man, his family will definitely kill the man in the first place, or imprison him in secret and send it to the emperor secretly, anyway, the news will never be leaked. of.
Also, the wife of the emperor is a member of the Mu family in Dongling. Their family is also a big noble, and they pay the most attention to reputation. If the emperor has this tendency, he will go out, even if the emperor is high and powerful, the Mu family It will never give up.
The most important thing is that as the head of the family, the emperor must be able to set an example for the family. How could he be obsessed with the male servant? This is absolutely fake news! "
Qin Jue was stunned by Xie Linlang's words.
"Emperor teacher... madam?" How could he forget that the emperor has a wife, he is not born to like men, he used to like women too!
Xie Linlang looked at him strangely.
"It's impossible for you not to know that the emperor has a wife, although you were just born when he got married, didn't you see her at the palace banquet later
Besides, with his status, how could he get married late? An ordinary prince gets married at the age of fifteen. If he dares to delay his marriage until he is eighteen, the whole family may go crazy. "
After all, women are not important to the family, but the heirs are bigger than heaven. If the emperor has never been married, or it is proved that there is a problem in that respect, then he will definitely not be the patriarch.
Qin Jue's eyes suddenly became extremely complicated.
However, he originally wanted to tell Xie Linlang, but now he doesn't plan to say it...
First, no matter what kind of feelings the emperor had for Linlang, he did not show it clearly, and he was already a great protection for her. For this, he admired the emperor as a man.
Second, the emperor was not demoted like him. He was in a maelstrom, and even if he became the commanding height of the power maelstrom, he could not help himself.
It is impossible for him to start with the child he has grown up with, his apprentice, and a teenager, which means that he will never get her.
Thinking about it this way, he was actually a little uncomfortable, and even had some sympathy for the emperor.
Although he still doesn't understand where this sympathy comes from, he can understand the pain of the emperor's teacher who can't ask for it... I really didn't expect that such a person will have a time when he can't ask for it.
Qin Jue sneered in a low voice, and then said, "Really, I was exposed by you at once. I can't even try to discredit him."
Xie Linlang didn't expect Qin Jue to have such childish behavior, she asked strangely.
"What are you doing to smear him?"
Qin Jue looked at her dew-like eyes and blinked at him, feeling a little moved.
He unknowingly got closer and whispered, "I just want to discredit him, because he is very good in your heart, and I hope I am the best."
Xie Linlang couldn't help laughing, why is this young man's little mind so cute
Seeing her smile, Qin Jue laughed too, he said, "I'm going to do something recently, so I'll send Ru Nian over to pretend to be me temporarily."
Although Xiangcheng is now their territory, but this time he will be away for a long time, so be careful.
As for Ru Nian, it was the stand-in boy who looked very much like Qin Jue.
Xie Linlang blinked, "Where are you going?" You need to send a stand-in, so at least two months
Qin Jue didn't tell her, because she didn't want her to worry, she just said, "I'm going to confirm one thing, I'll be back soon, don't worry."
Seeing him like this, it's not easy to think about it.
Xie Linlang was a little embarrassed to hear this, but after all, she was not the kind of big parent with a strong desire to control.
Qin Jue's current state of mind, physique, and martial arts are much better than before. It's not a bad thing to let him go out for a walk.
So she nodded and said with a smile, "Go, remember to bring me a present when you come back!"
As she said that, she continued to prune the branches, looking like she was not worried at all.
Qin Jue was very anxious to go to the capital, but when he turned around, he felt a kind of reluctance that was lighter and more haunting than fog...
So he took a few steps, stopped suddenly, and turned to ask.
"Linlang, there's one thing I've always forgotten to ask you, why did you see that Ru Nian was fake at first glance?"
Standing under the tree, Xie Linlang with scissors heard the words, looked back lightly, and smiled.
