Chapter 97
Thinking of all the things about Lin Heng, Master Cheng Hou replied "Yes".

The sky was bright and clear, with dark clouds drifting over, covering the sun.

Swallows fly low, and the wind howls.

The world was suddenly dark, and the gloomy dark clouds gradually covered the blue sky.

"I'm leaving." Master Cheng sighed, "Calm down for a while and keep a low profile."

"My daughter understands." Cheng Muqing nodded.

"Oh, by the way... About Manxianglou..." Cheng Houye turned around and looked at her with complicated eyes, "In the past few days, I have searched for people to investigate again. The result is that they are not from Qiguo."

Cheng Houye acted swiftly and resolutely throughout his life, never delaying what he wanted to do.

Just like now, you can come when you say it, and investigate it when you say it.

"No? Then why do their food taste the same as what I ate in Qiguo?" Cheng Muqing was puzzled, "Unless, their cook is just like me and just came back from Qiguo."

But, this is even more impossible!At that time, the relationship between Jin and Qi was tense, and no one would go to Qi State... Moreover, the relationship between Jin and Qi was tense for more than ten years, and the people of Jin could not survive in Qi State. However, on 26, it is impossible to come to the capital to do business after the integration of Jin and Qi.

Cheng Muqing thought about it quickly, and finally said with a little hesitation, "Could it be...they deliberately created a false identity?"

"Yeah." Cheng Houye replied sullenly, "I think that's the reason."

"Then their purpose." Cheng Muqing felt suffocated for a moment.

"They are too sensitive. I have only been there twice, and they are wary of me." Cheng Houye said, "No matter how I search now, I can't find any other useful information."

"Then did you send someone to watch over there?"

"No." Master Cheng shook his head, "It's useless to put more eyeliner, they are already wary of the outside world."

"Oh..." Cheng Muqing's words revealed unwillingness.

Cheng Houye told her a few more words before leaving.

After the person left, Lin Heng couldn't help being curious, walked up to her, and asked her, "Are you talking about me? What did I do wrong?"

What did they say it took so long?What are you talking about?

"No." Cheng Muqing glanced around.

Jinxi took those little servants and maidservants away with great insight.

"Ah Heng, tell me the truth, do you have any plans to live in the East Palace?"

Although Lin Heng does not have contact with the outside world, he still understands the word "East Palace".

"What's so good about the East Palace?" Lin Heng said in a disdainful tone, "That's where people cannibalize."

How much effort did the princes of the past dynasties waste and how many people were killed in order to enter the East Palace?Brothers killing each other, Lin Heng always believed that it was a very cruel place.

This sentence, she really, had to admit it.

Cheng Muqing was relieved, and smiled at Lin Heng, "Your Highness is right, that's not good at all."

Lin Heng pursed his lips.

Seeing that the sky was gloomy, it looked like a sign of rain.Cheng Muqing hurriedly took the servants to move the rewards to the warehouse.

Lin Heng also wanted to help, but was invited back to the room by Cheng Muqing.According to Cheng Muqing, he is the key protection target.If he bumped, it would be two people who were injured.

Thinking about the current relationship between the two, Lin Heng also felt that what she said was reasonable, so he didn't refute it, and let her send him back to Jingyuan.

Facing the quiet surrounding walls, Lin Heng was in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Finally, he scratched his hair, turned and went to the study.

Since knowing that he likes painting, Cheng Muqing has prepared a bunch of supplies for him.Fine pens, inks, papers and inkstones, what kind of Yanghao, Langhao, what Xugong inkstone, Yishui inkstone... all kinds of them are placed on the desk.

"My lord wants to paint?" Ah Feng asked beside him, "I'll grind the little one for you."

Having said that, he had already walked to the desk, poured water on the inkstone, and began to grind it.

Lin Heng just frowned, but didn't say much, quietly took the brush in his hand, and dipped it in the black ink.

"My lord, I always feel that you don't like the little ones." Afeng said, "But what's wrong with the little ones? You said, the little ones will change. After all, in the entire palace, only the little ones are completely on your side." Thinking about it from a different angle.”

He froze and looked at him with a frown, "You are the same as Emperor Qiguo."

Same, like to say all kinds of derogatory words to him...

"Oh~ the lord was joking, how can there be people who look exactly the same in the world?" A Feng didn't show any superfluous expression on his face, "Does the lord have a resentment against the former Qiguo, so he is wary of everyone? You don’t have to do the same to me with such hungry words... The slave is begging for life under the prince. Even if the princess and the crown prince have concealed things from you, the slave does not dare to be too full. "

"I don't believe it." Lin Heng said, "All 'good' will be based on interests. I don't believe you have nothing for me."

"Then why is the prince so nice to the princess?" A Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Because I also... have plans." Lin Heng lowered his eyes.

What he wanted was for her to be pleasing to him, and he was willing to die with him.

"Then why doesn't the prince think about it, what is my plan for you?" Afeng said softly, "Maybe, my plan is the same as the prince's? I hope you and the princess will be united forever, and your children and grandchildren will be full?"

Lin Heng frowned, he naturally didn't believe it.

"My lord, don't forget, who helped you stop the princess from going to the drunken Taoist priest." Afeng said sincerely, "The slave is sincerely doing your best. As long as you stand on the same line with the slave, the slave will definitely help you get the original Everything that should be yours."

"What do you mean?" Lin Heng frowned.

"Think about it, my lord, if you hadn't been elected to Qiguo today. Are you also learning from Tao Taifu and General Cheng, like His Royal Highness? Are you childhood sweethearts with the princess? Not only that, did you know Being treated like a rich man? Instead of being treated in Qiguo?"

those encounters?Lin Heng shook his hand, his face turned pale, "What do you know?"

"I don't know anything about you little one." A Feng took a step back, "I just think that you, my lord, have had so much hard work, you should not be decadent, just look at the present. What's more, the princess's feelings for you are still very vague. You believe in slaves, and slaves will let you go." The princess is deeply in love with you."

When he spoke, there was a faint smile on his lips, like a cunning fox seducing people in the grass.

"Get out." Lin Heng supported the table, the person in front of him overlapped with the face in his memory, making him do evil.

"Yes." Ah Feng didn't hesitate, "It's just that the prince has to believe that only a slave knows what you want and can bring you."

After speaking, he turned and went out, closing the door.

He was the only one left in the empty study room.

Lin Heng sat weakly on the chair, resting his hand on his forehead, his chest heaved and fluctuated, as if he was panting heavily.

"Little Heng'er~" The middle-aged man walked towards the boy with a smile on his face. He was wearing tight golden clothes and opened his arms.

"Don't come here!" The boy drew out the dagger from his waist, pointed at him, and glared at him angrily.

"Hey~" The middle-aged man smiled, "Gu just likes you."

"Qihuang, this is my prince after all, please respect yourself!" The old eunuch at the side quickly knelt down in front of the boy.

"Great Jin?" The middle-aged man sneered, and kicked the old eunuch into the air. "It's not certain whether there will be a great Jin country in the future."

"Eunuch Li!" The boy subconsciously reached out to grab it, but it was in vain.The old eunuch had already been kicked against the wall, and his head was hit so that he passed out.

"Xiao Heng'er, don't look at him." The middle-aged man had already walked in front of the boy, "Look at me."

The man's huge body enveloped him, and the boy was barely like an ant to him.

"I have a very interesting game, do you want to play it?" The middle-aged man took off the whip tied around his waist and stroked it gently, "It's very interesting...but the children I used to play with are all dead. .”

The boy trembled, and the next moment he stabbed at him with a dagger.

"Ha~" The middle-aged man directly held his thin wrist, turned him, and threw him to the ground, "You are still too young, and you will understand later that when nothing can be changed, silence is the best choose."

The boy stood up and looked at him fiercely.

"Don't push me, I'll be excited." The middle-aged man stared, his smile gradually split to the corner of his mouth.He stepped on his face, "It's much better this way, you can't die yet..."

"Let's come! Ahhh! Get out!" The boy wanted to escape from under his feet, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change it.He could only shout loudly.

The boy had never hoped that the gods would come down from the sky like this moment, and help him get rid of everything.

"Hahaha!"

"Ahhh!"

The man's laughter mixed with the boy's screams, resounding through the sky, piercing through the palace wall...

"You have to keep the account well, Jinxi." Cheng Muqing explained to Jinxi while beating his waist, "Especially those long swords and red-tasseled spears... there are six in total, right? You have to take good care of them..."

"Princess, shouldn't you ask me to pay more attention to gold, silver and jewelry?"

"We don't lack those vulgar things, mainly those weapons. I tried them just now, and the red-tasseled gun is really..." Cheng Muqing talked about the feel of those weapons, and he couldn't stop talking.At the end, he sighed, "It's a pity that my injuries haven't healed yet, or I'd have more fun."

Jinxi: "..."

"By the way, you take the seven-foot-long purple sandalwood and red-tasseled spear and the long sword that splits rocks like mud to my eldest brother at the Marquis of Wu'an. Counting it, he will leave the capital again in a few days... ..."

The eldest brother and sister-in-law finally met, and not long after, they had to separate again.Cheng Muqing sighed and walked to Jingyuan unknowingly.

In the past, she always thought that Lin Heng liked to be alone, but later she found out that he was also lonely without anyone around him.

I don't know if my sister-in-law will not adapt?Feel lonely too?

"Princess Wangfei." Afeng clasped his hands together, with a bright smile on his face.

"Where's the prince?" Cheng Muqing came back to his senses and asked him.

"In the study."

"Are you painting in the study by yourself again?" Cheng Muqing became interested, "You two are waiting here." Then, he walked towards the study alone.

The sunset is full of sky, and the blue sky is rendered with purple halo.

The wind blew across the world, blowing up fine sand.

Cheng Muqing jumped up the steps in twos and threes, and put his hand on the door before putting it down again.Would it disturb his thoughts to go in suddenly now?What if the inspiration suddenly stops?

Thinking of this, she turned around, changed direction, and walked to the window.

The spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and the cherry tree on the side has already grown buds, and the branches are growing in a haphazard manner.

Cheng Muqing broke off a twig, and put the twig into the crack of the window.As soon as she raised her hand, the window clicked open.

She opened the window, and the sun shone like her study together with her shadow.

In the study room, the thin young man was looking down, looking at something.

His brows are tough, his face is porcelain white, and his pair of phoenix eyes are so black that they shine.Although his wrist is slender, the hand supporting the desk has bulging veins.

His complexion was not very good, he was too pale, and there was still a fine line of sweat on his forehead.His eyes are firm and serious, as if he is painting, integrating himself into the painting and escaping from reality.

Cheng Muqing was stunned for a moment, she was holding on to the window in a daze, and even forgot to breathe.

A breeze blew into the room, and a young leaf fell on the paper.

Lin Heng picked up the green leaf and looked in the direction of the wind, "Ah Qing."

"My lord." Cheng Muqing turned around, "Your complexion is fine..."

"fine."

"Are you okay?" Cheng Muqing took two steps forward, raised his hand to stroke his forehead, and murmured, "I don't have a fever, I just sweat a lot..."

Lin Heng opened his mouth, and his little face instantly turned red.He put down the pen in a little helplessness, stretched out the back of his hand, and clasped each other.

"What did you draw?" Cheng Muqing withdrew his hand, but also said a few words to brighten the atmosphere.

"I didn't draw anything..." Lin Heng rubbed aside to give her a place.

"Let me take a look." Cheng Muqing leaned over, lowered his head and looked carefully, "This painting...is me too?"

In the painting is a girl with a double bun. The girl has a round face and a cute smile.In the painting, she is holding a bamboo shoot, and behind her is a bamboo forest.

"It seems to be really me..." Besides, why does this scene look familiar?Cheng Muqing was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "Is this the clothes I wore when I rescued you in the fire?"

Lin Heng looked at the girl in the painting, the corners of his lips slightly raised, "Yes."

"You're pretty good. It's been two years, and you can still remember what clothes I was wearing at that time." Cheng Muqing smiled, "I found that you really like drawing me...do you like me that much?"

"Ah."

The second half of her sentence was meant to be a joke, but she didn't expect him to answer so happily.Cheng Muqing felt that his heart beat two minutes faster.

Lin Heng also seemed to feel that he answered so quickly, and seemed a little anxious, so he turned his head, and his hands in front of his belly became entangled with each other uneasy.

The air suddenly felt a little awkward.

Seeing him not moving for a long time, Cheng Muqing could only cough twice, "My lord, it will be today's birthday in a few days. I heard that he wants to go with Chunshou, shall we go too?"

In previous years, Lin Heng did not participate in this kind of hunting activities.But this year, Chunshou and Jinming Emperor's birthday are together, if you don't go, you will definitely be charged with "unfilial piety".

"It's up to you to decide." Lin Heng said.

"Then I'm going." Cheng Muqing chuckled, "So that the prince can see my skills!"

"Hmm..." Lin Heng nodded, seemed to think of something, and said, "Qingqing, have you checked Afeng's background?"

"Of course I checked!" Cheng Muqing said, "He is the person who stays with you, I will definitely investigate carefully. Don't worry, he has a clean background."

"But..." Lin Heng paused and said, "I think he's wrong."

"What's wrong?" Cheng Muqing blinked twice, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my lord, maybe you're thinking too much."

Seeing her like this, Lin Heng had no choice but to swallow the words stuck in his throat.
