Chapter 57 The villain is online (23)

Lin Qing did not appear in the court hall for three days, and the courtiers quarreled on their own for three days to no avail. In the end, it was Wu Shangshu who went to kneel and beg Ling Qi to come forward.

At night, Ling Qi personally visited the Lin Mansion.

This night, the sky was gloomy and the stars and the moon were dark.

Lin Qing set up wine and dishes in the gazebo, as if he had expected Ling Qi to come.

Ling Qi entered the pavilion, the candlelight was dim, but there was a hazy feeling, "Is this the Hongmen Banquet?"

"Then are you afraid?" Lin Qing smiled gently.

Ling Qi's response was to calmly pick up the wine glass and drink first.

With such trust, Lin Qing's heart was filled with warmth, and the two sat facing each other, peacefully, and suddenly sighed, it had been a long time since they sat together without facing each other like this.

Since she rescued He Yanyu two years ago, they have been political enemies and have their own affairs.

Ling Qi looked at the dishes she liked on the table, took a casual bite, and savored them slowly and carefully for a long time. It was delicious food, but she felt the tip of her tongue tingling, "Did you cook it yourself?"

Lin Qing picked up the bamboo chopsticks, took a bite into his mouth, and nodded, "Fortunately, the skills are not unfamiliar."

Not only is it not unfamiliar?It hasn't changed at all since then.

Ling Qi still remembers the jokes Lin Qing made when he cooked for her for the first time, and the loneliness in a foreign land was only able to get over it little by little because of Lin Qing's company.

The two of them finished the meal in silence. They wanted to talk about business, but because of Lin Qing's actions, she didn't mention anything.

"A game of chess?" Lin Qing suggested, and Ling Qi nodded in response.

The maidservant brought the chessboard and tea, and quietly withdrew.

More than half of the chess game, both of them are highly skilled people, it is hard to tell the winner.

Ling Qi dropped a pawn, "You...can't you let go? I don't want you to die."

Lin Qing's eyes were burning, but it's a pity that Ling Qi lowered his head, he couldn't see her sincerity.

With a calm expression, he said with a smile, "letting go means losing, losing means dying, as far as I'm concerned, that's it."

Is that a polite refusal?Ling Qi was not surprised by this answer, if she could persuade Lin Qing, she would have persuaded Lin Qing in the past two years, why this is just the last useless attempt.

Ling Qi continued to play chess in silence, but Lin Qing couldn't help but say, "I know that Prince Qinghe told you about my life experience before he left Beijing."

Only then did Ling Qi look up, surprised.

"If I don't want to, he can't enter the palace," Lin Qing chuckled, "I forced him to leave the capital and let him see my money-wolf side, he will definitely look for you and talk about me history."

"It's all true, hateful people also have pity, I don't know if his words have aroused your compassion or not?"

Ling Qi understood the meaning behind the words and was surprised, "Are you plotting against me?"

Lin Qing shook his head, there was unresolved sadness in his eyes, and he didn't hide it, "It's all the truth, so what's the point? Xiao Qi, I really can't live long."

I heard Ling Yi say this two years ago, but in the past two years, I haven't seen Lin Qing feel the slightest discomfort. He wakes up early and goes to court every day, and reviews memorials until late at night. Now he can still jump and eat.

Ling Qi turned her head away, not wanting to talk to this scheming person.

Lin Qing fell down and said with a smile, "You are going to lose!"

One sentence hooked Ling Qi's mind, and the two fought in silence for a few more rounds. Ling Qi didn't lose, and Lin Qing didn't win either. It was still hard to tell the winner.

"The big revenge is avenged, why do you still have to take such a road? A road that... drove yourself to a dead end?" This is what Ling Qi still can't figure out.

She knew Lin Qing's intelligence, based on his intelligence, could it be said that He Yanyu would not be reconciled?Can it be said that the courtiers will not surrender sincerely?He also walked all the way like this. Is it not common sense that someone will overthrow him one day in the future?

Why did he choose this?

"As I said, everyone has a time when they can't choose, or it's God's arrangement!" Lin Qing pointedly, "I can't choose what kind of ending for myself, but I want you to be happy, choose your own ending."

Ling Qi recalled that when she was forced by the system to favor Jiang Yushu in the past, she couldn't choose her own path, and her relationship with Lin Qing was never her own choice.

"Little Qi, are you free now? Are you happy?"

Ling Qi couldn't help nodding.

"That way, I'm relieved."

Ling Qi suddenly seemed to grasp something, but seeing Lin Qing's casual expression, the thought slipped through his fingers again.

In the second half of the chess game, the two chatted about the past, but neither of them took the initiative to mention He Yanyu's rebellion and the courtiers' persecution.

Ling Qi's heart was beating violently, and the system tried to persuade her not to be tempted over and over again, making her more and more irritable, playing chess more and more casually, and gradually showing signs of defeat.

However, Lin Qing did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, on the contrary, he also played carelessly.

Even though Ling Qi understands what Lin Qing did wrong, she also knows the ending he should have, but from a personal point of view, she doesn't want Lin Qing to end up being scolded by thousands of people, fighting side by side for three years, she knows that he also has the world in his heart Have mercy on the world.

Lin Qing's hands that dropped the chess pieces became slower and slower, and gradually, he could no longer hold the chess pieces with his hands.

"You..." Ling Qi wanted to ask what was going on, but when he looked at Lin Qing, he found that the corners of his lips were bleeding slowly, "You, what's wrong?"

She got up and stepped in front of Lin Qing, and raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips, but she couldn't wipe it off at all.

"Lin Qing!" She widened her eyes and shook her head, unable to believe this scene.

"I took poison, Xiao Qi, I won't lie to you, I'm really going to die." Lin Qing smiled and held Ling Qi's hand, he was finally able to get close to the person he loved again.

"Although I don't want to lose this round, I don't mind losing to you."

Ling Qi shook her head and shouted for someone, but no one responded to her.

"Xiao Qi, I told you that no matter what happens, no one will come to this yard." Lin Qing held Ling Qi's hand firmly, "Don't go, I'm hopeless, and accompany me for the last part of the journey , okay?"

The tears made Ling Qi unable to see Lin Qing's expression clearly. She nodded her head greatly, shaking off the tears, "Why? Why? Why?"

"I don't know either," Lin Qing wiped away Ling Qi's tears, seeing her cry for him, everything was worth it.

"I couldn't live for a few more years, but now I can give you momentum and let you ascend to the pinnacle of power, and it's worth it."

"Xiao Qi, I'm also selfish. I know that I won't get your love in this life. Although it's okay for you to hate me, I still don't want to part with it after much deliberation."

"Now, will you remember me forever?"

For a moment, Ling Qi was stunned. In the last world, when Lin Qing died in her arms, he said the same thing.

At that time, she was not deeply touched, but at this time, she really felt heartbroken.

"Xiao Qi, if there is another life, can you love me once? Can you marry me?"
