After the marriage, the sick and weak husband fell off the horse

too close.

It was so close that Lin Jingrong could clearly see the skin texture and extremely fine hair on Xie Chunchao's face.

He looked at her slightly dazed eyes under her thick eyelashes. He seemed to feel that his heartbeat was fast, but he didn't know why it was like this.

During this period, Xie Chunchao had been busy with Bai Qiusheng's affairs, so he had not seen her.

At first, he thought it was not a big deal and just went about his business as usual.

It's just that when he was reading, he would think of Xie Chunchao's face in his mind. When he was eating, he always felt that there seemed to be one less person beside him. He would miss her when taking a bath, think of her before going to bed, and even see her in his dreams. to her.

He thought that maybe it was because Xie Chunchao had been with him during this period, so he formed a certain habit, just like a person would take a bite of green onions every time he eats. If he doesn't have it today, something will go wrong.

He originally thought that he would restrain himself and that as long as he stayed away from it for a few days, everything would return to normal.

But his feet didn't obey his orders today, and he came here again unknowingly.

When he saw Xie Chunchao, his heart was greatly satisfied.

Especially at this moment, when he was holding her face, his heart was filled with a sense of satisfaction that he had never obtained before.

Her warm and tender face was heating up inch by inch under her palms, and the scorching temperature spread from her palms, melting the sugar in his heart. The sweetness spreading in his heart was irresistible.

Xie Chunchao never expected that Lin Jingrong would suddenly hold her face. She met his gentle gaze at a loss, and her whole body became hotter and hotter because of shyness.

She stammered, "I...I didn't want you to say anything."

"You can say whatever you want."

After she finished speaking, her cheeks became even hotter.

This kind of closeness was something she had never done with Ning Heng before. It made her feel ashamed and panicked. She didn't know what to do at all, and her head seemed a little unclear.

She thought it must be because his face was so confusing that she couldn't think.

When Lin Jingrong heard this, she pursed her lips and said softly, "I have never thought about divorcing you. Even if it is not a marriage, I will not divorce you."

Xie Chunchao's face became even hotter and he said softly, "I understand."

Lin Jingrong raised her eyebrows slightly. It was rare for him to say such a thing, and this was her reaction?

Xie Chunchao looked up at him again and said softly, "Let me go first."

After hearing this, Lin Jingrong reluctantly took his hand off Xie Chunchao's face. The hand he put back on his leg was slightly closed, and the pad of his thumb passed through the other four fingers, and then in the palm of his hand. He rubbed it repeatedly, as if he was recalling the feeling when he just touched Xie Chunchao's face.

Lin Jingrong paused and gave Xie Chunchao advice in a gentle voice, "Actually, you don't have to worry about rumors. Although people's curiosity is strong, it is short-lived. As long as other rumors appear, the last one will soon be replaced. cover."

"You can ask people from the Liao Prince's Palace to spread some rumors that are beneficial to us. As for the emperor, the prince is always the emperor's biological brother, so there won't be any big punishment."

When Xie Chunchao saw Lin Jingrong giving her serious advice, a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes, "Jingrong, actually, I just lied to you. The Liao Prince's Palace has not yet reached the point where the house will be ransacked. As for the solution, I have also thought about it, I have sent people to spread rumors in the market that are beneficial to us."

Lin Jingrong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Chun Chao is really smart, he thought of a way to deal with it so quickly."

Xie Chunchao thought for a while and asked, "Aren't you angry?"

Lin Jingrong picked up an orange on the table, peeled it slowly, and asked confusedly, "Why should I be angry?"

"Of course it's because I kept it from you." Xie Chunchao blurted out, and then added, "There is also something about lying to you."

Lin Jingrong thought for a while and said, "I will never be angry with you."

After Lin Jingrong said this, not only Xie Chunchao, but also himself was stunned.He couldn't tell whether these words came from his heart or were acted.

Lin Jingrong handed the peeled orange to Xie Chunchao. Xie Chunchao took it with a blushing face, but seeing Lin Jingrong's expression as usual and not shy at all, she straightened her mood, lowered her eyes and took a bite of the orange. It was so sweet. In her heart.

She swallowed the orange, thought for a while and explained the reason why she hadn't seen him during this period, "Sorry, I've been busy during this period, so I haven't had time to see you."

"It doesn't matter." Lin Jingrong said, "You go about your business first, and it's the same thing when you finish your business and meet again."

Xie Chunchao was about to ask him, but heard Lin Jingrong say, "Although I always feel much lonely around me when you are not around."

"I..." Xie Chunchao said, "I'm done with everything. Later..."

She thought about the court in the future and said, "Even if something happens later, I won't be as busy as before."

Lin Jingrong looked up at the small window and asked, "The spring weather is perfect today, why not go for a walk in the garden?"

"it is good."

The court meeting in three days.

Lang Dezhou stood at the bottom of the list of civil servants. He was an inconspicuous little official. When he went to court, he was always like a backdrop in the crowd. Not to mention his speeches, for so many years, he could not even look at the emperor's face. Haven't even seen it clearly.

When he thought about what he would do later, he became nervous and sweaty, but he had no way out.

The man showed him this fatal thing. If he didn't do as he was told, not to mention his life, not even his son's life could be saved.

He closed his eyes and cheered himself up silently in his heart. What was he afraid of? His life was at stake. As long as his son could live safely and healthily, he would do anything.

"My lords, do you have anything else to report?"

There was silence in the court, followed by voices led by Bai Qiusheng and others,

"I would like to report to my emperor. I have nothing to report."

The emperor was about to retire, but a man stood up from the end of the line.
"To report to my emperor, I have something to report to you, Lang Dezhou."

The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the man carefully, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My minister, Lang Dezhou, wants to take part in Prime Minister Bai Qiusheng's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason."

As soon as these words came out, there was an explosion in the court.

Before Bai Qiusheng could speak, several ministers shouted harshly,
"Absurd words! How could the Prime Minister commit treason? You are making a false accusation!"

"Your Majesty, he is falsely accusing the Prime Minister!"

"How could Lang Dezhou, a mere low-ranking official who has never spoken to the court, suddenly join the Prime Minister's performance today?! He must have been ordered by someone else!"

"What do you think I did? Do you think I did it?"

The court hall suddenly became a mess, comparable to the vegetable market on Zhuque Street.

In the midst of the chaos, the emperor sat on the dragon platform and silently took note of who spoke for Bai Qiusheng and who spoke against him.

"Okay." The emperor shouted, "How is it appropriate to make a scene?!"
