"I have to tell you something, and I just want to ask you, do you still have a place for me in your heart?"

King Lin pulled her head, and the mania in his eyes seemed to drown her whole body.

"No! From the day I saw you being humiliated by Yao Xianxiu, I have already secretly sworn in my heart that if one day you come back to Lin'er and me, I will never

I’ll forgive you!”

Xia Lingyue's words were so decisive that King Lin stared at her for a long time and 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 more stern.

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

Little did she know that the indifferent expression on his face made Xia Lingyue feel relieved.

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

King Lin looked at her retreating back with a sly smile on his face.

"Hehehe... What a stupid woman!"

He secretly looked at Xia Lingyue's back. Although the words squeezed out between his lips and teeth were as light as gossamer, Xia Lingyue was slightly stunned.

But she quickly changed her mind and thought to herself: "Humph! If you want to repeat the old trick in front of me, your brain will be kicked by a donkey!"

Then, she continued to walk her own path.

"What a stupid worthless fool!"

Behind him, King Lin looked at her figure as she gradually disappeared around the corner of the palace corridor, and let out a wanton contempt between his lips and teeth.

"My dear concubine! Are you happy today?"

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

"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 long life. Of course, this alone makes her noble and invincible! What else is there to worry about?"

"You! It's this mouth that makes people feel comfortable! What you say with this mouth really warms people's hearts!"

"Hahahahaha... Where are you? It's my concubine who is overestimating me."

"You girl......"

"Thank you very much for your many years of teaching, I am so grateful!......"

The master and servant became happier and happier as they talked, and couldn't help but burst out laughing...

……………………………………………………

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.

"Huh... Isn't that right? How did she get into the palace? Why did she ask me to get involved in an engagement with her again?"

The more King Lin thought about it, the more puzzled he became, because he couldn't remember who this person was.

"Second Master! In my opinion, you should not worry about it! From my perspective, as long as you get a sincere wife, it is actually the most important success for a man! Otherwise, what's the point of winning the world?

"

Qiao Yun pinched his chin and said some old-fashioned words often said by people who had been there, which made him feel very embarrassed.

"You...where did you learn all this nonsense? Do you want to make fun of me?"

Xixiang nodded, frowned and thought for a moment: "This is indeed true! How many people who are maids can be happy? It's good to be alive!"

Xia Ruyan picked up the teapot and poured another cup: "That's right! There are so many sad things in the world, how can they be summed up in one sentence because of human nature?"

Xia Lingyue sighed helplessly: "Who wants this? But if this is not the case, are you willing to be a prisoner? Is it possible that the queen died so tragically that you are willing to bear the name of treason that was carefully crafted by the thieves throughout her life?

Will it last forever?"

King Lin turned his head to look out the window, and a tear fell down his cheek.

"Okay! I listen to you..."

He pretended to be calm and put his hand to his cheek, but in fact he was trying to quietly wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Master! Do you still remember? Do you still remember what you once said to me?"

In fact, Xia Lingyue had already noticed his pretending to be calm, so she stepped forward and stroked his arm.

"You once told me that you would like to have the moon in the sky and no stars in this life. Do you still remember?"

Seeing her say this, Granny Lin instantly felt relieved, and then said softly: "Actually, the situation you mentioned may be due to a curse that has been planted in your heart since you were a child."

"Magic curse?!!!......"

"oh………………"

She lowered her eyebrows and looked at her feet, thinking: If it's a chance, maybe I can kick a golden gourd while walking?

As she thought about it, she couldn't help but smile.

"...But, Nanny Lin!..."

When she raised her head again, she looked around and saw that there was Aunt Lin everywhere. Except for flower beds, pavilions and a solitary rockery, there was no figure in front of her. This situation looked like she was just like Lin.

It was as if grandma had never appeared.

As she spoke, she took off two palace bell bracelets from her wrists and stuffed them into King Lin's hands. Because King Lin was disheveled at that time, he couldn't see his true face clearly.

"It's not easy to be a slave! Alas... Actually, it's not easy for me to be the eldest lady. Although I am the eldest daughter, it's a pity that my mother died early! My life is not easy either! Alas... No

It’s okay to mention it! Although these two bracelets are not worth much, just think of them as gifts from me for you to have a full meal with!"

"I didn't think too much about it at the time, I just thought King Lin was a poor slave! Later, he told me that I gave him a warm smile that day, and the cuteness between my eyebrows instantly warmed my heart.

broke his heart.

"Oh...it turns out that the commander of the Royal Forest Army has been changed again? Then General Wei should retire and return to his hometown to see him? That's good, at least it's okay...

"

Upon hearing this, Chunxiang immediately answered: "General Wei is not a vegetarian, how could he give up so easily?"

Her words instantly awakened Concubine Jiang.

"In that case, does that mean you know who the person who lost the jade pendant is?"

Concubine Jiang's words instantly cheered her up......
