Emperor Jin

Chapter 33
Hearing this, the son couldn't help being surprised, but the emperor laughed and said: "Although I want to rule the world, I don't want to use war indiscriminately. The king of Shu is old. If the son succeeds, he will serve the court sincerely." Thinking about it, why do I insist on holding the little Bashu in my hands?"

The son's eyes were brilliant, crystal clear, and then turned clear, "Your Majesty has an extraordinary mind, I really admire it - if you can do this, it will be considered a blessing for all the people in the world."

The two were at war with each other, but they also had the idea of ​​sympathy for each other. Under the ambiguity of their words, they had reached an agreement-the emperor secretly supported the succession of the son, and the land of Shu would not allow any more troops and horses, causing troubles in the hinterland of the court.

This kind of agreement is unsubstantiated, and it is easier to tear up than a piece of thin paper, but right now the flames of war have not been extinguished, and the four parties are still divided. With a strong support, it hits it off, and everyone is happy.

The emperor and Li Huan looked at each other, laughed together, and talked about military affairs, Li Huan then left.

The door of the palace was gently pushed open and closed again, the lapis lazuli ground shone brightly, but finally fell into darkness.

The emperor picked up the teacup, took a sip, and fell into deep thought. After a while, he suddenly said——

"You and him... have known each other before?"

Bao Jin's pupils condensed for a moment, then slowly relaxed, she said softly: "Are you talking about this prince?"

She seemed to be a little surprised, and then suddenly said angrily: "Of course I don't know each other... But he has been staring at me, and he is really a dandy!"

The voice was faint, and it was actually sarcasm, "Are there no women in Shu?!"

The emperor couldn't help laughing when he heard the resentful words, his chest rose and fell, his laughter was clear and mellow, and the stern eyebrows and eyes softened accordingly.

"You are really not a beauty..."

He leaned on the imperial case, still laughing, Baojin rolled his eyes, and let him laugh helplessly, he had already cursed him dozens of times in his heart.

"So... how about you and Xueshi Chen, you should know each other, right?"

After the laughter stopped, a low question suddenly came from Baojin's ear.

The blood in his whole body seemed to cool down at this moment, Bao Jin was secretly startled, but he didn't show it at all.

She raised her head and fixed her eyes on the emperor, her eyes were like thousands of years of ice and snow, immaculate——

"If Your Majesty hadn't captured Gumo, he... would be my future son-in-law."

She said in a low voice, in a clear and cold voice, fearless and fearless.

The hall fell into dead silence at this moment, and the atmosphere was almost suffocated.

"It's really true!"

The emperor sneered, and pulled her green sleeves and bright wrists closer to him.

The snow-white skin hurt from being hooped, Bao Jin gritted his teeth and endured it, never letting out a cry of pain.

"He died inexplicably in the imperial garden. This matter has nothing to do with you, right?"

Bao Jin took a staggered step and nearly fell, but his strong arms supported her, and the two of them got close to each other without any barrier.

A flash of shame and anger flashed across the pale and plain face, Bao Jin raised his head slightly, and said contemptuously: "The emperor has already made a conclusion in his heart, so why bother to ask me?"

"I ask you... is it true or not?!"

The emperor stared into her eyes, with subtle hatred and nostalgia, gritted his teeth and asked.

"Hmph...he was greedy for life and afraid of death, betrayed his lord, and lured enemies into the city, which led to the fall of Gumo City. Otherwise, even Yun Shi would not be able to drive straight in - it was this beast who killed his father and killed him thousands of years ago." Cutting me to pieces with a knife can't take away the hatred in my heart!"

Bao Jin's voice was serious, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, blood was almost dripping from his lips.

"It's really you!"

The emperor was startled and angry, and grabbed her in front of him, "How did you do it, who is your accomplice?!"

Baojin's eyes were frantically in a trance, and the dark pupils shrank to the extreme. She ignored the emperor, but murmured: "If I can really kill this beast, I will be able to comfort my father... But, he was forced to Killed by an assassin——I hate it so much, I can’t be reconciled!!”

When the emperor looked into these pair of eyes, he felt like a wounded little beast, flustered and ruthless, but one couldn't help but soften his heart.

He sighed, his anger disappeared immediately, and he gently hugged her in his arms, only feeling that this slender body could be broken at any time, and flew away like a light feather.

"Okay, he's already dead, and you've got what you want. What else is there to be unwilling to do? Do you really have to kill me to get rid of the hatred in your heart?!"

The emperor said in a gloomy and somewhat irritated voice, Bao Jin lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Look up at me..."

The big hand lifted her chin, strong yet gentle.

In the deep and heavy eyes, the cruelty and coldness gradually subsided, and the big eyes stared at him, as if accepting fate, and crystal tears fell——

"As long as my people are safe and sound..."

"I promised you, of course I keep my word!"

A huge shadow covered her head, and her cold and stern lips were printed on her. The endless darkness flowed slowly over the two of them like flowing water.
