Chapter 988: The Three-Day Covenant
"Uncle, are you here to save us? Can we go home? Lin Hu looked at Lin Jue's deep face and asked.
Green Dance also looked at Lin Jue with anticipation.
Lin Jue could only whisper the content of his deal with King Huai tonight.
"Green Dance, Little Tiger. If I agree to such conditions, I will henceforth betray my conscience and soul. He asked me to do something for him, and asked me to deal with Mr. Fang and Lord Yan, you say, can you do this? At the end, Lin Jue said softly.
"Childe, this kind of thing must not be done, Childe should not promise him. Don't do things for this bad guy. Midori said resolutely.
"Yes, uncle. Can't promise him, this Huai Wang is bad pus. It didn't end well with him. Xiaohu also shouted.
Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "But what should you do? If I don't agree, he won't let you go. And threatened me to kill you. ”
Green Dance said softly, "Childe, Green Dance never wants you to be in the same league with this bad guy for our sake. Midori would rather be killed by him than see Childe work for him. Childe often says that if you do something and don't do something, this is the time to do nothing. If Childe compromises in order to save us, not only will you be unhappy, but we will also be unhappy. ”
Lin Hu nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, what Sister Green Dance said is what I thought in my heart." Uncle said that the ancients sacrificed their lives for righteousness, and Xiaohu felt that this was sacrificing their lives for righteousness. I'm not afraid of death, and my uncle can't promise him. ”
Lin Jue was moved in his heart, nodded and sighed: "Green Dance, Xiaohu, you are all people who understand righteousness, and I feel very lucky to have you by my side." You all have backbone. But...... How could I have watched you being killed and ignored? So how can I feel at ease in this life? ”
"Childe, I don't blame you, really. Green Dance was ready to die when they captured her. It's just that I didn't see my son, and I was unwilling. Now that I see Childe, I'm satisfied. My biggest regret is that I didn't give birth to a boy and a girl, and I didn't tell my mother at the grave that I had fulfilled her instructions. I figured it out, though. If the son wants me in the next life, I will marry the son and fulfill my long-cherished wish, then it will be nothing. Childe, don't force yourself to do things you don't want to do because of us. Green Dance knew Childe's temperament and couldn't bear to see Childe wronged by this. Really, nothing. Green Dance said sincerely with a small face.
Lin Jue stretched out his hand and pinched her face, and sighed: "I, Lin Jue, how can I have you as my companion." Green Dance, Little Tiger, you don't have to worry. I have my own way of delivering you. But it may take you a few days of patience. I won't go along with King Huai, and I won't leave you alone. I'll be able to get you out. You can rest assured. ”
Green Dance said softly, "How can there be the best of both worlds." Don't be embarrassed. ”
Lin Jue opened his mouth and was about to speak, when Zheng Zhixue's shout came from outside: "Lord Lin, the time for a stick of incense has passed, please go back to the front hall to see my lord." Don't keep my prince waiting. ”
Lin Jue frowned and stood up. Lu Wu was obviously a little flustered, holding Lin Jue's hand and saying, "Is Childe leaving?" ”
Lin Jue said in a low voice: "Yes, I have to go to see King Huai, he only promised to let me see you and make sure you are safe and sound." Now I'm relieved, I have to talk to him. ”
Green Dance was silent, frightened and helpless between her eyebrows.
Lin Jue hugged her to his chest and whispered, "Listen, no matter what they ask, you can't say anything." Especially about Concubine Rong. This is something that death cannot say. In three days I will deliver you out. Be sure to get through these three days. Got it? ”
Lu Wu nodded heavily and said softly: "Don't worry, Childe, if they force me, I will be killed by a headhead." ”
Lin Jue was startled, and hurriedly said: "Don't be impulsive, if you kill yourself, my hard work will be in vain." Aren't you going to bear me a child again? How can you live when you die? The next life is illusory, and who knows if there will be an afterlife? I want you to live well until I rescue you. We're going to have a bunch of children in the rest of our lives. Don't mess around, or I'll be very angry. ”
Green Dance blushed and nodded, "I...... I know, that's what I'm saying. ”
Lin Jue nodded, turned to Lin Hu and said, "Xiaohu, you also have to be strong, after this incident is over, you will mature a lot, and you can take on great responsibilities in the future." Think of it as an experience for you. To grow up, you need to experience setbacks. Haven't you been complaining that I treat you like a child? This time you survived, and you will be a real man who stands up to the sky and the earth in the future. I have faith in you, and I don't want to tell you more. You know what Uncle is talking about. ”
Lin Hu straightened his chest and said, "Uncle, Xiaohu understands. ”
Lin Jue nodded and smiled. At this moment, Zheng Zhixue's voice outside rose again: "Lord Lin, it's time, if you don't come out again, my people will go in." I don't want to do it, but you don't want to do it better than us. ”
Lin Jue responded loudly: "Come on, Mr. Changqing, you are also a scholar, why are you so bad." I don't know if my husband and wife are reunited after a long absence? On this occasion, your voice is like a toad, annoying to death. You must not have a woman's love, because you are too uninteresting. ”
Zheng Zhi rolled his eyes angrily and scolded a few words. If Lin Jue said something wrong, it would be fine, but what Lin Jue said was very right. Zheng Zhixue has not yet married a wife, and he was just an ordinary staff member before, eating in the palace. Now that he has just become the chief staff and the head of the palace, tonight he saw that Lin Jue's two concubines were both beautiful and peerless women, Zheng Zhixue felt a little envious and jealous in his heart. It's a pity that he can only go to the Qinglou to find those filthy women who despise it in his heart. Desire, every time 'after confession and dissipation', he scolded himself for a long time, feeling that he was depraved and corrupted, and he was hungry and hungry. This kind of mood is difficult for others to understand.
In the house, Lin Jue held Lu Wu in his arms and kissed a few bites. Turning around, he strode towards the door. Midori stood there biting her lower lip, desperately trying not to scream, but in a pair of eyes, tears were already pouring down like pearls with broken threads.
……
The hall of the front hall has been cleaned up. Guo Xu was frowning, sitting on the side of the small table, drinking tea one by one. When Lin Jue arrived, Guo Xu only owed his body, didn't look at Lin Jue, and said in a deep voice: "People have seen it, this king has not treated them badly." Eat and drink well, and raise them for nothing. Now believe the king's words. ”
Lin Jue nodded and said, "So, I should be grateful to King Huai?" ”
Guo Xu sneered: "Thank you for it, you don't need to be grateful, who told you not to know how to lift." Now they are fat in vain, but this king can teach them to be dead on the spot in an instant. So, have you thought clearly, do you agree to the conditions of this king? ”
Lin Jue frowned and was silent. Guo Xu said coldly: "If you don't agree, I will immediately order them to be slaughtered." ”
Lin Jue sighed and said, "His Royal Highness King Huai, you are forcing me, aren't you afraid that I will hold a grudge against you after following you in the future and ruin your business?" Aren't you afraid that I will be careful for others? ”
Guo Xu laughed and said, "Who are you Lin Jue?" If you promise to be loyal to me, I will have 10% trust and confidence in you. Because, I believe in your character. Just as you would rather be expelled from the sect than compromise with Fang Dunru, you don't have to do it at all. That's because you're that kind of person. If you are determined to be loyal to me, you will not betray me. I don't doubt that at all. If you refuse to be of my use, you will tell me directly. Am I right? ”
Lin Jue smiled and said, "It seems that His Royal Highness King Huai knows a lot about me. ”
Guo Xu picked up the teapot and poured tea for himself, and in the sound of the tea, Guo Xu smiled: "So, I am your bosom friend and the person who understands you best." You should serve me, I am the one who deserves to serve you. Say yes or no. In a word, there is no need to procrastinate. ”
Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "Can I think about it for three days?" After all, I have to think about such a big thing. At this moment you are forcing me to make a decision, and if I agree to you, my heart will not be happy, and I will not be able to serve you wholeheartedly. I have a hurdle in my heart, and I have to convince myself to get through it. ”
Guo Xu shouted coldly: "Lin Jue, don't toast or eat and drink." I'm too indulgent of you. ”
Lin Jue shouted in a deep voice: "I said, the means of threats are useless to me, or you can kill them directly, and I will save the choice." I can't dwell on it at the moment. I said three days, and I will give you an answer in three days. ”
Guo Xu said coldly: "Then I will kill them, and the corpses will be taken away for you." ”
Lin Jue sneered: "Don't come to scare me, if you want to kill, wouldn't you kill it early." If you have patience, I will give you a great gift in three days. Tell you a big secret that will make you the only candidate for the crown prince in no time. If you are in a hurry, let's break up in two, you kill, I will help King Jin get the crown prince, and I will cut you in the future, so that you will die without a place to be buried. ”
Guo Xu was stunned for a moment, but Lin Jue's pretentious words seemed to him to mean something. What a big secret, maybe it's the thing I have always wanted to find out about the relationship between Concubine Rong and Green Dance. Lin Jue must know something. It's definitely a great boon for yourself.
But he refused to show weakness in his words. sneered: "You really think of yourself as a green onion." Do you think that with your ability, you can protect the king of Jin and get the crown prince? What are you. ”
Lin Jue sneered: "If you don't believe it, we'll see." His Royal Highness King Huai, I can't rub my tongue with you here, if you want to kill, you can kill it, you keep the corpse yourself, I am going to enter the palace. The emperor summoned me tonight, and I will enter the palace on the second watch. The lower official took his leave. ”
Guo Xu was taken aback and asked, "Why did my father summon you tonight?" ”
Lin Jue sneered: "How do I know? Maybe it's asking me which prince is more suitable to be the crown prince. Guess who I'm talking about? Leave! ”
Lin Jue arched his hand and walked away. Zheng Zhixue shouted: "Before the words are finished, how can you leave?" Teh is also rude. ”
Lin Jue chirped: "What are you?" I want you to interject. If I assist King Huai, I will be the first to get you out. Waste one. ”
Zheng Zhixue said angrily: "You...... Bold, rude. Come and stop them. ”
More than a dozen guards blocked the door when they heard this.
Lin Jue shouted: "Who dares to delay my time, if the emperor can't find me and misses the time to meet the emperor, what do you think I will say?" Get out of the way! ”
A group of guards refused to retreat, waiting for Zheng Zhixue's order. But I heard Guo Xu shout coldly: "Lin Jue, this king will only give you three days, and after three days, if you don't like me, buy a coffin and wait for the corpse." If you think that I, Guo Xu, are just talking, you are very wrong. I will let your whole family die one by one, leaving you alone. Let him go! ”
