"you………………"

She stared into King Lin's eyes and suddenly felt that the world had turned upside down.

"Since you hate me so much, then feel free to hit me! As long as you don't make yourself angry, that's fine."

When she met King Lin's eyes, she felt a faint crystal clear light in his eyes.

"Why are you doing this to me? Even if you don't love me anymore, you can tell me in advance so that I can be prepared!"

Xia Lingyue was scolding and crying at the same time, her expression was very sad.

"I have to tell you something, and I just want to ask you, should you give me a chance or not?"

King Lin pulled her head, and the deep love in his eyes seemed to be able to drown her whole body.

"No! Ever since I saw you being humiliated by Yao Xianxiu today, I have already secretly sworn in my heart that if one day you come back to Lin'er and me, I will definitely

I won’t forgive you!”

Xia Lingyue's words were so decisive that King Lin had no choice but to sigh helplessly.

"If you really hate me so much, then so be it!"

A look of despair crept up King Lin's eyebrows, making his sharp lip lines look even colder now.

"Okay! Since you said so, then whatever you want!"

Little did she know that the indifferent expression on his face made Xia Lingyue even more angry.

"Just follow me! Anyway, apart from falling in love with someone else, being in trouble and finally giving up, there's nothing you don't want to do not follow me!"

King Lin looked at her retreating back, and the discomfort in his heart had swelled to the extreme.

"You will regret it if you do this to me!"

Xia Lingyue was slightly stunned when she said these words, but then she thought: "Even if I really accuse you of something wrong, you will not be so innocent!"

Then, she continued to walk her own path.

"Hmph! You did something wrong and you don't want to admit it, and you want to shamelessly rely on me. I won't forgive you even if you rely on me!"

"My dear concubine! Are you happy today?"

A sound like a silver bell came from the flower bed on the arch rockery. From a distance, it sounded like waves of clear laughter of women.

"Yeah! It's really not bad! I've been in a really good mood for no reason lately!"

Another slightly older voice took over the conversation.

"The empress is eternally youthful and blessed with longevity. Of course, this alone makes her noble and invincible!"

"You! It's this mouth that makes people feel comfortable!"

"Hahahahaha... Where are you? It's you, my queen, who is showing me love."

"You girl......"

"……………………"

Xia Lingyue happened to pass by the arch and overheard this conversation and couldn't help but feel curious.

"Huh? Why does this voice sound so familiar?"

She poked her head and looked into the arch: "...Isn't this Concubine Jiang?"

So, Xia Lingyue frowned and thought for a moment.

"I heard that Concubine Jiang is very powerful. Not to mention, although I see the Emperor often, I have never had any interactions with Concubine Jiang."

She thought for a while, secretly lowered her head and looked around her feet, and soon found a stone pier under the arch.

"I might as well take it as a break! It would also be nice to listen to Concubine Jiang's conversation by the way!"

Then, she sat down against the stone pier at the arch.

"Your Majesty! Your wishes always come true! You are truly blessed. The servants all say that on the first day of this month, they will go to the temple to copy scriptures and pray for you! Girls, you are so thoughtful!"

Chunxiang massaged Concubine Jiang's shoulders and said some nice words.

"Humph! You are really good at talking. I just don't know which of the many nice things I say is true..."

Xia Lingyue rubbed her tired feet and thought scornfully.

"That's what this person is like. If the person who became a prisoner back then was her, Concubine Jiang, then the person sitting here today enjoying everyone's sweet mouth should belong to the queen, right?"

Xia Lingyue secretly thought of this and couldn't help sighing: "This world! It's so fucking fake!"

"…………Your Majesty, Your Majesty! There shouldn’t be any suspicion on the Emperor’s part, right?"

Chunxiang's tone seemed a little submissive, but after she raised the topic, she stopped talking and quietly waited for Concubine Jiang's response.

"Doubtful? Do you think the emperor would care about me over such a trivial matter?"

Concubine Jiang suddenly looked displeased, and then she frowned and said, "Actually, how serious do you think the emperor can be about these things? It's not like you haven't seen that he was very satisfied after listening to King Ying's advice.

The world is looking for Xia Lingyue, so why should she go and get married? So, isn’t it clear at a glance how the banker in this game of chess moved?"

Xia Lingyue held him down and refused to let go. No matter what King Lin said, she would not let down her guard at all.

"Just say it! No matter what you say, I will not give in!"

Just like that, the two of them laughed and danced together, scaring away the birds outside the window.

"Hahahahahahahaha..."

Just when the two of them were having a particularly exciting time, they didn't notice a woman lying on the towering banyan tree in the distance. The woman's eyes were dull and she was looking at the window on their side eagerly.

.

"Okay! Okay! Stop making trouble! Don't think that no one is watching us. There is heaven outside the open window!"

Xia Lingyue finally couldn't scratch him anymore and began to beg for mercy.

"Only you think so much. You just like to cause trouble for yourself."

King Lin looked at the sky outside the window as he spoke, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the big banyan tree.

"………………"

Xia Lingyue saw that his expression was different, and she frowned and asked.

"What's the matter?"

"Oh...No, it's nothing!"

Although he pretended to be calm and said it was difficult, his eyes glanced at the big banyan tree over and over again.

"oh………………"

Xia Lingyue saw that he looked wrong, so she pretended not to know.

Although she pretended not to know, her eyes secretly glanced at the place he had just looked at.

"............Master! I feel the wind is quite strong. It makes my forehead hurt!"

Xia Lingyue reached out to close the window as she spoke. King Lin's expression became serious.

"…………But…………"

He opened his mouth but stopped talking.

"Oops! I just feel like I have a headache. It seems I really can't breathe."

She closed the window without any explanation. The moment she closed it, she cast a cold and sharp look at the figure on the big banyan tree.

"Master! Let's go back to the back room!"

She held King Lin's arm and pulled him towards the inner room without any explanation.

"Master! Let's go! I will do it for you..."

Her face was shy, and her voice suddenly became much more charming.

"But………………"

King Lin stayed in front of the window and stretched out his hand in the direction of the window.

"Oh! He's gone!"

She grabbed King Lin's outstretched hand and dragged him straight into the back room.

"Hmph! You actually did this with me..."

Xia Lingyue cursed secretly in her heart: "It seems that Xia Ruyan really took advantage of her, how hypocritical!"

Then, she turned back and glanced at King Lin, and grabbed King Lin's arm tightly in her hands, and the hold became tighter and tighter.

"Sir! Recently I learned a good technique of one-handed massage from my old nanny. You are really blessed today! I hope you feel comfortable all over!"

King Lin lowered his head and glanced at Xia Lingyue's face, feeling an inexplicable feeling that he didn't know how to describe.

"Did she also see it just now?"
