Runs with the ball after being pregnant with the baby of rival's son

Lin knew that his internal and external injuries were still not healed, so he forced his way again. He was already exhausted, but now he was hit by such a big shock, his blood surged, and he almost fainted.

He took a step forward and grabbed Jiang Chuting's arm, his breath trembling uncontrollably: "Chuting, this is, whose child is this? Why did he call you father?"

Jiang Chuting turned his head, his eyes were very calm: "...Since he calls me Dad, of course he is my child."

Xing'er, who was still sobbing in Jiang Chuting's arms, looked at Lin Zhi with tear-stained face, looked at him curiously with big wet eyes, then looked at Jiang Chuting again, and softly called out: "Father." Buried in his arms again.

Lin Zhi lost all strength in his hand, let go of him, and let it hang down softly.

From such a close distance, he could see clearly, the child's face was so similar to Chu Ting's that he couldn't even deceive himself.

At the beginning, he deliberately angered him by saying that he was going to get married and have a child. After more than two years of separation, he was not married at all, but Chu Ting had a child of his own.

Could it be that this is the retribution for his misconduct more than two years ago?

Lin Zhi's figure was crumbling.

Seeing Lin Zhi's appearance of being severely beaten, Pei Jing raised her chin slightly, sneered and said, "I haven't said anything yet, what right do you have to mind?"

Lin Zhi raised his eyes, although he didn't make it clear, he already felt that this person's feelings for Chuting are definitely not the same as that of a disciple for his master.And Chuting seems to be very close to him now.

Lin Zhi felt more and more gray in front of his eyes, and could not see a ray of light.

Jiang Chuting hugged Xing'er and said to Pei Jing, "Xiao Jiu, go back first."

Pei Jing glanced at him expressionlessly, turned around first, Jiang Chuting didn't even look at Lin Zhi, just turned to him and said, "Leave quickly." Then followed behind Pei Jing.

Lin Zhi couldn't possibly leave, dragged his steps with difficulty and wanted to stay behind Jiang Chuting, but his eyes blurred and he was blocked by a man in black clothes.

"Please stop here."

Lin Zhi glanced at him, his face full of astonishment: "It's you??!"

The person in front of him was the Habayashi army who said he trespassed and put him in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.But why did he, as the emperor's personal guard, appear in...

Lin Zhi's thoughts froze, he glanced at Pei Jing who had gone away, and thought about his attitude towards Chuting, his mind suddenly became clear, he was suddenly frightened and angry, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

He had long considered himself unlucky about what happened back then, after all, he was the one who was reckless first and offended people who shouldn't be offended.

But at this moment, he realized that it was simply a trap, luring him to jump down!

Lin Zhi stared at him fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "It's a great show, a thief shouting "Stop thief!"

How could he know that a man who had only met once in a teahouse would become the current emperor, so even if he was arrested and imprisoned, he never doubted this aspect.

In this way, he was completely tricked without knowing it!

The man in black said coldly: "I don't understand what you are talking about. Kindly remind you, don't follow me again, otherwise... hum."

How could Lin Zhi listen to him, and finally followed Gu Lanchong to find a courtyard called Changningxuan, Chuting must be there.

There were guards at the door. It was unrealistic for him to break in with this body. He clutched his wound, staggered and sat in a nearby corner, took two wound medicines, and meditated to adjust his breath.

……

Jiang Chuting knew that there was fire in Pei Jing's heart, and he couldn't hold back the fire, it had to be vented.

So when he smashed things in the house, Jiang Chuting just sat quietly, waiting for him to finish smashing.

Pei Jing's whole body exuded a gloomy rage, except for the area where Jiang Chuting was sitting, almost all the furnishings were destroyed by him.

But this did not ease him in the slightest. He walked over in a few strides, grabbed Jiang Chuting's collar, and his black eyes burst out with a biting cold light: "Am I treating you badly? Ah? Do you have to find it for me?" Are you happy? If I don’t come today, what do you plan to do? Continue to roam the rivers and lakes with him? Jiang Chuting, I promise to let you out and give you freedom. Is this how you deceive me? Is it fun to deceive me?”

Jiang Chuting looked back at him with clear and calm black eyes, and said slowly: "Xiao Jiu, I didn't lie to you. I just met him by chance."

Pei Jing refused to believe it at all, and stared at him closely: "Oh? Why did you meet by chance just when I came? I'm afraid you have met many times by chance before?"

"No."

Pei Jing gritted her teeth tightly, her eyes piercing him like knives.

Jiang Chuting remained motionless, his eyes never evading, he looked straight at him calmly and said: "I said no, I just didn't."

"..." Pei Jing remained silent with a sullen face.

After a long time, the hand holding him finally loosened a little.

Looking at his expression, Jiang Chuting secretly let go of his hand, let him sit opposite to him, rolled up his sleeves and poured him a glass of water, saying: "Drink some water, calm down, I do have something important to discuss with you." you say."

Pei Jing drank the water in the cup in one gulp and slammed it back on the desk, the dark fire in his eyes was still burning.

"Is there something to talk about? I think it's almost like you changed the subject."

Jiang Chuting moved his fingertips slightly, pondered for a moment before speaking: "This matter is related to my birth of Xing'er."

Pei Jing narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard this, looked at him, and listened to him continue.

"Actually, I was able to give birth to Xing'er not because of my special constitution, but because I was forced to take a kind of medicine. A kind of... medicine that can make a man conceive and give birth to a child."

Pei Jing's pupils shrank: "...Are you serious?" Then she frowned fiercely: "Is there such a medicine in the world?"

Jiang Chuting said: "Yes. And this medicine has already killed many people. I have been investigating this matter since I met you, and until now, I have finally made progress."

Pei Jing also looked solemn, and motioned to him: "Go on."

Jiang Chuting nodded, starting from the young man who found out that he had jumped off the building, and told him everything except skipping everything he had with Lin Zhi.

Including what I went through this time, and what I found.

Pei Jing's complexion changed several times. After he finished speaking, he was silent for a moment, fixed his eyes on him and asked in a deep voice: "So, you haven't gone back for so long, is it to find enough evidence?"

Jiang Chuting hummed, picked up the baggage beside him, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of him.

"The things I mentioned to you just now are all here. There are also witnesses. I have sent them back to Jiuchongtian. If you need them, you can find them at any time."

Jiang Chuting took a deep breath, and said again: "Next, I implore you to send someone to solve the problem, so that there will be no more victims."

Pei Jing glanced at the burden in front of her, but her heart was full of doubts.

He knew that Jiang Chuting had righteousness in mind, and he completely believed in it after finding out that something was wrong for so long.However, as he said, the Lin family is the biggest culprit in this matter, killing tens of thousands of people in the past [-] years, and Lin Zhi will definitely be implicated by then.

What's more, this person should know how much he wants Lin Zhi to die, so he is not afraid to hand over all the evidence to him and let him deal with it?

Or is it true that he really doesn't have any feelings for Lin Zhi anymore, so he doesn't care?

It couldn't be, it wasn't like him at all.

Pei Jing pondered for a moment calmly, then glanced at Jiang Chuting again.With a calm demeanor, he didn't actually ask him to let Lin Zhi go.

Could it be that he is afraid that he is still angry at this time, and deliberately avoids suspicion?

Jiang Chuting didn't hear his response, slightly surprised: "Xiao Jiu?"

Pei Jing suppressed all kinds of thoughts in her heart, her eyes darkened and said: "Don't worry, this matter is really not trivial, I will definitely let someone do it as soon as possible."

As soon as Pei Jing finished speaking, her complexion suddenly turned pale, and she lowered her head slightly while covering her heart.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuting asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Pei Jing shook his head and didn't speak. Jiang Chuting noticed that his face was turning blue, so he couldn't help but leaned closer and said, "Let the doctor take a look."

Pei Jing frowned, waved her hands, her breath was a little uneven: "No need, I have seen the imperial physician in the palace, I will rest for a while and I will be fine."

There was no place to lie down in the messy room, Jiang Chuting helped him to another room.

He had just lay down for a while when Xing'er ran in with short legs and shouted, "Daddy, daddy!"

Jiang Chuting hurriedly turned his head to show him the gesture of silencing, Xing'er quickly covered his mouth with his small hands, his big eyes rolled around, and stood in the middle of the room, not daring to move.

Pei Jing was already in an extremely bad mood, and at this moment she felt uncomfortable all over, rubbed the center of her brows, and said impatiently, "What is he yelling about?"

Xing'er didn't let go, and the voice she made was vague: "I'm hungry."

Unknowingly, Jiang Chuting and Pei Jing had been talking in the room for a long time, and it was past lunch time, and the servants wanted to serve Xing'er for dinner, but Xing'er wanted Jiang Chuting to accompany him, so they came here.

Pei Jing turned her head, glared at Xing'er, and said in a troubled tone, "I'm hungry, go eat by myself, why come here to make a fuss?"

The child is still too young, maybe he doesn't understand the specific meaning, but he can feel that his eyes are extremely unkind, coupled with his extreme coercion, Xing'er was so frightened that he bit his fingers, tears rolled down his face, and looked at Jiang Chuting helplessly.

Jiang Chuting walked over a few steps, picked him up, Xing'er's mouth was puckered a little, but she still couldn't help crying while hugging his neck.

Jiang Chuting patted him on the back to coax him.In the past six months, Pei Jing's attitude towards Xing'er can't be said to be particularly good, but at least they get along relatively peacefully, and she hardly used such an impatient tone to attack him.Obviously, Pei Jing was angering Xing'er because of Lin Zhi's appearance.

When Pei Jing heard that childish cry, she fell silent, put her arms around her eyes, and said in a low voice for a while: "...Okay, you go to eat with him first."

"Yeah." Jiang Chuting said: "Then we won't bother you anymore, you should have a good rest."

Jiang Chuting carried Xing'er back to his room, put him on the floor, washed his face clean, and rubbed his slender fingers on his face, which was white and rosy from the heat.

Xing'er didn't know, so she looked back at him.

Jiang Chuting suddenly said in a low voice: "Why do you love to cry so much?"

Xing'er didn't hear clearly, she tilted her head: "Huh? What is it?"

Jiang Chuting sighed, and smiled at him softly: "It's nothing, let's go eat."

The child's mood changed very quickly, Xing'er clapped her hands happily: "Fanfan, eat!"

Xing'er already knows how to eat with a spoon, and usually doesn't need help from others, but he misses Jiang Chuting so much, he acted coquettishly, holding his small bowl and spoon and begging Jiang Chuting to feed him.

"Dad, dad, hello, hello!"

"Okay, I'll feed you." Jiang Chuting picked up Xing'er and put it on the chair beside him, he raised his arms and cheered.

Jiang Chuting fed him spoonful after spoonful. Xing'er was very obedient, she didn't talk or smudge when eating, and she finished eating soon.

Jiang Chuting wiped his mouth for him and let him play beside him, but he used it briefly and asked people to remove everything from the table.

Xing'er ran to the door of the room to look left and right, then ran back and lay on Jiang Chuting's lap and asked, "Father, where's brother?"

What brother?Jiang Chuting took a while to realize that he might be talking about Lin Zhi.

Facing the child's clear eyes, Jiang Chuting held his soft little hand and said after a pause, "Brother is gone."

Xing'er pursed her mouth and hummed twice, looking a little depressed.

Seeing this, Jiang Chuting couldn't help asking: "What happened to Xing'er?"

Xing'er played with Jiang Chuting's sleeves with his fingers. Although he could speak, he was still a child under two years old, unable to express his feelings.

After twitching for a while, Jiang Chuting put his ear close and whispered, "We want to play together."

Jiang Chuting straightened up and looked at him and asked, "Do you want to play with him?"

Xing'er covered her face and nodded.

Jiang Chuting showed a slight smile on his face, touched his little head, secretly surprised, Xing'er just missed Lin Zhi when he saw him just now, is this the nature of father and son?

……

After playing with Xing'er for a while, Jiang Chuting put him to sleep.

Seeing Mo Lin outside the door, Jiang Chuting walked over, Mo Lin saluted and said, "Your Majesty said, we will leave for Jincheng later."

"Okay, I got it." Jiang Chuting thought for a while and asked, "How is his health? Is he better?"

Mo Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "You can go and see him in person, it's better than asking me." After speaking, he bowed and walked away.

Jiang Chuting couldn't help shaking his head.Mo Lin stayed by Pei Jing's side for a long time, and he always thought about Pei Jing, so that he was more dissatisfied and resentful towards him than anyone else.

On the way back, Jiang Chuting and Xing'er were arranged in Pei Jing's carriage.

Pei Jing looked much better, so there should be nothing serious.

The carriage drove on the road for more than an hour, Pei Jing stared at Jiang Chuting with black eyes for a while, and said suddenly: "You look distracted, do you want to get out of the car and have a look?"

Jiang Chuting, who was slightly lost in thought at first, turned his head to look at him, and said, "No need."

Pei Jing asked back: "Is it really not necessary? But I don't think these two words are written on your face."

Lin Zhi and his friend Zhao Chengyang followed them all the time, Pei Jing's lingering anger was still there, and his suspicions flared up again, deliberately acting strangely.

Jiang Chuting said: "You think too much."

"Really? Then do you dare to tell me the truth, who were you thinking about in a daze just now?"

He is really messing around, Jiang Chuting took a deep breath, looked at him and said, "Xiao Jiu, do you have to do this? If you have to, then I will get out of the car and look for him now."

"You!" Pei Jing was very angry with him: "How dare you!"

Xing'er looked confused, looked at Jiang Chuting, then at Pei Jing, and didn't understand what they were talking about.

Jiang Chuting said: "He has grown legs, I can't stop him from going wherever he wants to go."

Pei Jing's eyebrows were dark: "Then I'll chop off his feet! Let's see where he can go."

When he said chopping his feet, Jiang Chuting quickly covered Xing'er's ears, and asked Pei Jing seriously: "So, you think that the relationship between me and him is not enough, and you want to create more?"

"Are you threatening me?"

Jiang Chuting asked back, "Why aren't you?"

Pei Jing stared at him for a moment, covered her heart with her hands, coughed a few times, her lips turned pale, and she closed her eyes and said nothing.

Being able to threaten success can only show that you care too much.

It's like he cares about Jiang Chuting, and Jiang Chuting... still cares about Lin Zhi.No one can fool anyone.

Another day passed, and Jiang Chuting obviously couldn't feel anyone following him.It was probably because of what Pei Jing did, or, Lin Zhi's internal and external injuries were not healed, so he couldn't bear to travel like this.

Best not to keep up.One Pei Jing is enough for him to deal with, another one will give him a headache.

The road back to Jincheng was not peaceful. There were three interceptions, almost all of which were masked female killers, and each of them had strange martial arts, which was difficult to deal with.

Jiang Chuting wanted to catch some of them and bring them back to Jincheng for interrogation, but he failed to save any of them alive, because once they were caught, they would kill themselves by biting the poison in their mouths.

"Flying Flower Pavilion..." Pei Jing looked at the corpses lying all over the ground, and sneered, "You are quite courageous, you dare to assassinate me."

Jiang Chuting also felt a little emotional.Hong Yufei was tortured and locked up by Lin Xi. She spared no effort to get back the evidence and protect the Lin family. She was really loyal.

Unfortunately, her loyalty was in the wrong direction.

Now that Qiao Xun was seriously injured by him, Hong Yufei also suffered internal injuries and was locked up. Hearing Xie Zhen say that Qin Ye seemed a little crazy, and whether Lin Xi believed in Zi Que's real cause of death or not, she already had doubts in her heart and hated Lin Xuan. .In short, they are now in a mess internally.In addition, the imperial court will come forward and want to break it, which is definitely a lot more advantageous than before.

It has been half a month since I returned to Jincheng.

Pei Jing acted very quickly, as soon as he returned to the palace, he summoned several important ministers to discuss the matter, and began to ask people to do it, and personally supervised the inspection.

After Jiang Xian knew this, he couldn't hold back and asked Jiang Chuting: "The Lin family is the mastermind. After the case is finalized, the relatives will definitely be punished. Chuting, have you ever thought that Lin Zhi..."

He has been friends with Jiang Chuting for more than ten years, and he knows very well that even if Jiang Chuting knows Lin's truth, it is impossible to just watch him die like this.

After all, Lin Zhi didn't know anything, so he was quite innocent in this respect.

Jiang Chuting's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he only said in a low voice: "Let's take a step, let's take a step."

Although Jiang Xian felt strange, he didn't continue to ask, but thought of another thing.The time Yuan Xi told Jiang Chuting to leave Jincheng is coming soon.

Jiang Xian approached, and asked Jiang Chuting in a low voice: "It's been a while since you came back, is there any movement?"

Jiang Chuting shook his head.

There is no rush, Jiang Xian sighed: "Wait a little longer."

In the afternoon, Xing'er made a fuss about going to the street to play. Although Pei Jing didn't order her feet to be grounded, it was a sensitive period and the guards were stricter than before.Jiang Chuting didn't want to offend Pei Jing at this juncture, so he didn't go out, and Xing'er was taken out by Jiang Xian.

He stayed in the house and wrote to Jiu Chongtian.

Jiang Chuting's guess was right. The reason why Lin Zhi and Zhao Chengyang failed to keep up was because Pei Jing sent someone to stop him, and the second was that Lin Zhi was injured both internally and externally and couldn't hold on anymore.

Fortunately, even if he couldn't keep up, Lin Zhi could still know where Jiang Chuting was.

But after knowing it, I realized that it was useless at all. Changningxuan's guards were comparable to the imperial palace, not even a fly could fly in.And Jiang Chuting hasn't come out since he went in.

Lin Zhi stayed nearby day and night, not daring to blink for fear of missing it.Zhao Chengyang, a good friend, was really hard to be, and he couldn't be persuaded, so he had to bring him meals and medicines according to the order of each meal, and then waited with him, and his legs were numb every day.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Chuting didn't wait, but saw Xing'er straddling Jiang Xian's neck and cheering out.

It was the first time Zhao Chengyang saw Xing'er, and he couldn't help being surprised: "Hey, he really looks like Jiang Daxia."

Lin Zhi was stabbed in the heart by him, and he looked away, not looking at Xing'er at all.

But Xing'er spotted him with sharp eyes, shaking Jiang Xian's head with a pair of small hands excitedly, and shouted: "Brother, brother!"

Jiang Xian's head was almost shaken off by him, and he said helplessly, "Slow down, little ancestor."

Xing'er pointed to Lin Zhi's side, then shook him again: "Go, go."

Jiang Xian came to Changning Pavilion almost every day. Of course he knew that Lin Zhi was guarding nearby, and he heard Xing'er called Lin Zhi brother, so he couldn't help laughing. This name is really bad.

The situation here is complicated, Jiang Xian doesn't plan to go there, but Xing'er is not willing to let go, and almost scratches his hair bald.He gasped in pain, unable to do anything, walked over to lift Xing'er down and put it on the ground.

Lin Zhi may have known his attitude for a long time. He actually saw him these days, but he didn't bother him too much, and just kept watching him pitifully.

If Lin Zhi knew Xing'er's life experience, he probably wouldn't bother.

Sure enough, when Xing'er leaned over to call his brother, he would turn his face to the right, and when Xing'er moved to the right, he would turn his face to the left.

It was like this several times, Xing'er was not unhappy, but found it amusing, and happily hid with him, giggling.

Xing'er squatted down suddenly, pushed Lin Zhi's arm to signal him, then turned her face away, and waited.

The two were so close that Lin Zhi could smell the aroma of milk on the child's body, his face was sullen, and he didn't move.

Jiang Xian crossed his arms and said, "He played with you for a long time, now it's you."

Xing'er waited for a while, but Lin Zhi didn't respond, he turned around, his big black eyes flickering, looked at Lin Zhi again and shouted: "Brother."

Lin Zhi said angrily: "Who is your brother! I won't play with you."

Xing'er pouted, Jiang Xian couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Zhao Chengyang, who had been silent by the side all this time, smiled cheerfully, knelt down and shook Xing'er's little hand, and said with a pleasant smile: "Your name is Xing'er, right? Come." As he spoke, he put on the long-sleeved pair that he had prepared long ago. Ming Jinsuo took it out, put it on his neck, gave Lin Zhi a look with his eyes, and said to Xing'er: "This brother gave you a gift, do you like it?"

There were three small golden bells hanging on the golden lock. Xing'er picked it up and shook it, making a crisp sound, and smiled happily, "Thank you."

Zhao Chengyang was overjoyed, and loved him very much in his heart, he stroked his black and soft hair: "You are so good."

Xing'er rolled her black eyeballs, stood up abruptly, leaned closer and kissed Lin Zhi's cheek.That burst of wetness/softness mixed with fresh air came too unexpectedly, Lin Zhi felt as if he had been scalded, half of his pale and bloodless face turned red, and he glared at him angrily: "What are you doing, brat? !"

Xing'er curled her big eyes, covered her mouth and snickered, and ran back to Jiang Xian. Jiang Xian hummed twice, and carried Xing'er away.

After walking a long way, Xing'er is still lying on Jiang Xian's shoulder and looking at this side.

Lin Zhizhang sat there, his face turned red and green, blue and black, without saying a word.

Zhao Chengyang opened the folding fan with a snap, sat beside him, and said earnestly: "Lin Zhi, you didn't listen to me at the beginning, do you regret it now? So now, are you going to listen to me?"

Lin Zhi was silent for a moment, then said: "What do you think should be done?"

Zhao Chengyang fanned his fan and said, "What should I do? The first thing to do is not to shame the child. Not only can't shame the child, but also treat him well."

Lin Zhi clenched his fingers tightly: "But I feel uncomfortable."

"That's what you deserve. Whoever told you to die, I didn't listen to you." Zhao Chengyang hit the nail on the head: "You don't have the right to suffer now."

"..." Lin Zhi was disheartened.

"What you want now is to bring Chuting back. You are still so fierce to his child. If you show your face, who will be willing to talk to you?"

Lin Zhi scratched his hair and broke down a bit.

He understood what Zhao Chengyang said, but he just couldn't control himself. He had a father before, and now he has another child.As for him, he was thrown into an unknown corner by Chuting.

He was so miserable that he was about to die.

Zhao Chengyang said coolly again: "Not to mention, there is that person beside your Chuting now..." Although there is this person, it means that the child's mother is definitely not a problem, but Zhao Chengyang said loudly: "If you die again, Even the gods can't save you."

Lin Zhi lowered his head and breathed heavily, before he said in a low voice after a long time: "I know what to do, let me calm down first."

Zhao Chengyang raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "That's right."

Jiang Xian took Xing'er to play until evening and didn't come back. His left cheek was bulging, as if he was eating something.

Lin Zhi probably really calmed down, seeing that he didn't make a bad face, but he didn't take the initiative to come forward to show his intimacy.

Zhao Chengyang greeted with a smile: "Hey, where did you go to play? Look at your sweaty head."

Xing'er got down from Jiang Xian's arms and ran in front of them, the longevity lock in her arms jingled.

"Sweet, you eat." Xing'er's voice was soft and glutinous, her cheeks were flushed, her body was full of sweet smell, she put a candy in each of their palms, and ran away.

Lin Zhi's palm spread out the candy stiffly, motionless.

Xing'er didn't go in right away, and ran to the side with Zhao Chengyang, finished the candy in his mouth, and rinsed his mouth with water.

Jiang Xian said, "Come on, let me smell it."

Xing'er: "Ah—" Opening his small mouth obediently, Jiang Xian smelled it, and asked him to wash it again, then took his hand, one big and one small walked in with their heads held high.

Zhao Chengyang thought it was so interesting, he couldn't help laughing at it, and turned his head, only to realize that Lin Zhi was also looking over there quietly since some time ago.

……

As soon as Xing'er came back, Jiang Chuting found the longevity lock hanging on his chest.Before asking questions, Jiang Xian explained honestly.

Jiang Chuting didn't make a sound.

Tired of playing, Xing'er rubbed her eyes and climbed onto Jiang Chuting.Jiang Chuting held him in his arms, rubbed him twice, and fell asleep like this.

Jiang Xian said to him embarrassingly: "Why don't you take it off and throw it away?"

The things were given directly to the child at the time, and the child seemed to like it, so it would not be good for him to throw it back in front of his face.The left and right are just a small gadget, so if you accept it, you will accept it.But looking back now, Jiang Xian also felt that there was something wrong with him.

Jiang Chuting lowered his eyes, and Xing'er was holding the longevity lock with his hands even when he was asleep.It seems that he really likes Lin Zhi, thinking that he gave it to him, so he is so happy and cherished.

A burst of soreness spread in his chest, Jiang Chuting said in a low voice: "Forget it, keep it."

In the evening, it started to rain.

As usual, had dinner with Xing'er, bathed him, and coaxed him.Jiang Chuting leaned down and kissed Xing'er's cheek, straightened up, and looked out the window.

The shadows of the trees were swaying, and the wind and rain were blowing, getting bigger and bigger.

Jiang Chuting knew that Lin Zhi had been wandering outside Changning Xuan, and according to his temperament, he would not leave even in such a heavy rain.

He thought of how Lin Zhi was waiting for him stubbornly at the gate of Acacia Xiaozhu in a snowy day, waiting for him... and finally waiting for him.

So does Lin Zhi think that as long as he waits endlessly like this, he will soften his heart again?

Jiang Chuting got up and walked over, closed the window, blocking out all the sound of wind and rain.

It was windy and rainy, and the eaves of the walls couldn't cover the rain at all. Lin Zhi held up an umbrella, but his purple clothes were still almost completely wet.

He stared at Chang Ningxuan obsessively, he knew very well that his current physical condition could no longer hold him back, and he could no longer get caught in the rain, but his body simply didn't obey.

Wait a little longer, maybe he will soften his heart and come out to see him...

One hour, two hours...

Lin Zhi was no longer paranoid, coughed hoarsely for a while, reached into his arms and took out a candy, which was given by that little guy.

Peel off the wet candy wrapper and stuff the candy into his mouth.

Soon a small bump appeared on the left cheek.

Although the heart is miserable, there is sweetness in the mouth anyway.

Jiang Chuting was already ready for Pei Jing to come to question his master, but he didn't expect that one day had passed and there was no movement from Pei Jing, but he waited for the Queen Mother's order to call him into the palace to have an audience with him the next day.

Jiang Chuting could not listen to Pei Jing, but he had to listen to the Queen Mother.What's more, he had to go this time.

The next day, I gave Xing'er to Jiang Xian to take him to play. Jiang Chuting wore a blue brocade jacket with slanted breasts, wide sleeves and dark patterns, tied his hair with a crown, and hung gorgeous jade ornaments around his waist. noble and elegant.

He seldom made such a solemn dress, and Zhou Bei was a little taken aback when he saw it at first sight.

"My lord, my lord, the carriage is ready."

"Well, let's go."

Jiang Chuting walked to the door, and as soon as he got into the carriage, he heard Lin Zhi shouting in surprise: "Chuting! Chuting!"

Jiang Chuting didn't want to interfere at first, but when he heard the sound of swords drawn around the carriage, he said, "Everyone stop."

Zhou Bei and the others had no choice but to put away their swords.With no obstacles, Lin Zhi jumped in front of the carriage.

Zhou Bei hurriedly stopped him, not allowing him to get any closer.

"Chuting, come out, come out and meet me!"

"Chu Ting!"

"Look at me, Chuting!"

Lin Zhi regretted it very much. He shouldn't have gone back to the inn to change clothes. If he stayed here all the time, he would be the first to notice him when he came out, and he would be able to see him more often.

A white and well-knit hand reached out, and half of the curtain was lifted to the side, and Jiang Chuting, who was sitting inside, showed his face, with painted eyebrows and cold eyes.

When Lin Zhi saw his face suddenly, the world in front of him suddenly became transparent, and his heart felt pain and excitement.

He was ecstatic: "Chuting!"

Jiang Chuting said without expression: "Get out of the way."

Lin Zhi saw his outfit, his eyes were attached, and he asked, "Where are you going dressed like this?"

"Enter the palace."

Lin Zhi thought he was going to see Pei Jing, and his face turned pale: "Can I not go?"

Zhou Bei shouted coldly: "Don't you understand? Our young master told you to get out of the way!"

Lin Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "I don't allow you to go. Chuting, you don't know, he deliberately asked someone to pretend to be you to lead me to his place, and even beat me up and said that I intended to assassinate, and put me in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to kill me. ..."

"Oh, really?" Jiang Chuting responded flatly, and asked him, "So?"

Lin Zhi's expression froze, his throat choked for a moment, and his voice lowered a bit: "Chuting... That day, almost a year and a half ago, at the Jincheng Lantern Festival, were you with him?"

Jiang Chuting replied: "Yes."

Lin Zhi's eyes turned red immediately. It turned out that when he was arrested, he was just across the courtyard from him.

"Then at that time, did you know that I was..."

"Lin Zhi, I think—" Jiang Chuting frowned and said, "Now you should go home and care about your mother, instead of pestering me here."

Lin knew exactly what he meant.He must have given all the evidence to Pei Jing. After everything is confirmed, their Lin family will be finished.

But his mother has Hong Yufei, that woman will swear to protect her to the death.

And he... didn't know how long he could live, so he had to look at him a few more times with all his might.

Lin Zhi looked at him firmly: "I will never leave you."

Jiang Chuting: "...If I am late in entering the palace and the queen mother blames me, will you come and take the punishment for me?"

Upon hearing that it was the queen mother, Lin Zhi hesitated for a moment, and obediently stepped aside.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know...I'll just wait here for your return."

Jiang Chuting lowered the curtain, Lin Zhi's face was no longer in sight, and the carriage started.

He leaned back and closed his eyes.

It turned out that Lin Zhi was arrested on the day of the Lantern Festival.No wonder Pei Jing behaved strangely that day and asked him to intercede for the assassin.No wonder, he was inexplicably restless that day...

He was watching the fireworks, but Lin Zhi was besieged in the backyard, and he didn't know anything.

Jiang Chuting couldn't suppress the dull pain in his heart anymore, he frowned and exhaled lightly.

After entering the palace, Jiang Chuting went to the Empress Dowager's place, and also saw Yuan Xi whom he hadn't seen for a long time.Yuan Xi's expression was calm as usual, and when he saw him, he nodded slightly, and Jiang Chuting also nodded at her, as a greeting.

Yuan Xi didn't say it clearly at the beginning, but Jiang Chuting knew in his heart that the queen mother probably didn't know about the help she said at the time.

But if he wants to completely break away from Pei Jing's control, the Queen Mother must come forward.He didn't know what Yuan Xi would do when the so-called time came.

The Empress Dowager smiled all the time, didn't mention the matter of sending him away from Jincheng, just let him drink tea and chat with him for half an hour, then pressed her eyebrows and said she was tired, and Jiang Chuting left.

Jiang Chuting didn't know the Queen Mother's intentions, and couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking in vain and went to find Wei Jia.

He has grown a lot taller, and the childishness between his brows and eyes has faded a bit, but he is still so stupid and ignorant of worries, but miraculously he is doing well in the palace.

Jiang Chuting didn't want to stay in the palace for too long, after seeing him, he planned to leave the palace.

However, in the end it was not possible.

He was stopped by an eunuch who claimed to be Zhang Dequan, and Wei Jia quietly told him that this was someone next to Pei Jing.

Zhang Dequan bowed politely: "My lord, the master has an invitation. Please go with the servant."

The inside of the palace is nothing compared to the outside of the palace, Jiang Chuting nodded and had no choice but to let him go.On the way, he met a young and beautiful woman in palace costume who was looking at him from a distance, her brows seemed to be full of melancholy.

Zhang Dequan led the little eunuchs to salute: "May the queen be blessed."

Zhang Dequan didn't signal Jiang Chuting, but when he heard that it was the queen, his identity was already there, he lifted his clothes and was about to bow down, but the queen said: "You are excused."

She has brought the maids closer.

She is not as stupid as before, and already knows his existence.Hearing that the Queen Mother had summoned him, she couldn't help but wanted to come over to see what he looked like.

Zhang Dequan is a person close to the emperor, he knows how to ponder the Sacred Heart the most, he is such a considerate person, just now he didn't remind this person to salute, how dare she make him kneel?

Jiang Chuting changed it to bowing and saluting: "I have seen the empress."

The queen sized him up and saw that his eyes were straight and clear, as if he was a god, and he didn't look like a monster that would bring disaster to the country and the people. She bit her lips, and suddenly she, who was full of resentment and jealousy, couldn't speak a word.

Zhang Dequan reminded: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is still waiting, look..."

The queen knew that he was urging her, so she was in a hurry, and she suddenly said to Jiang Chuting: "If you are willing to enter the palace, this palace can arrange for your majesty, and I will never wrong you." It's running inside and outside the palace.Moreover, Your Majesty reads
