The legitimate daughter is reborn and cannot escape after being provoked by the tyrant
Chapter 1098 I Just Can’t Help It
Zhou Ruo did not believe Lin Jiuqing's denial at all. Instead, he said to Lin Jiuqing: "That's just your one-sided statement. You are not His Majesty. How do you know what he thinks?"
"Perhaps, he is so heartless to me because he cares too much about your feelings?"
Lin Jiuqing: "..."
Zhou Chen raised his hands to cover his face, unable to utter a word. His cousin had gone too far wrong, and looking at the current situation, there was no turning back.
Lin Jiuqing was silent for a moment, then said to Zhou Ruo, "So, what do you really want? Use my affairs as a threat to make His Majesty favor you?"
Zhou Ruo was stunned, then gave a bitter smile and shook his head.
"I am not so ignorant as to know myself," Zhou Ruo said softly, "As long as you are here, His Majesty will never favor anyone else."
"I just made my request. As long as you tell His Majesty and let this matter go, I will be obedient and raise the Second Prince to adulthood, and will never do anything to harm you again."
Lin Jiuqing nodded: "What if I don't agree?"
Zhou Ruo: "Then the life stories that you and His Majesty have worked so hard to hide will be exposed to the public. At that time, do you think the world can still tolerate a married abandoned woman like you staying with His Majesty? Even if His Majesty goes against the public opinion and keeps you by his side, the spit of the public will drown you."
"What's more, the Lu family committed a serious crime and the whole family was executed. How could you, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, be the one who escaped the net?"
Lin Jiuqing said nothing.
What she feared was not her identity as a second bride, nor her identity as the legitimate daughter of the Lu family, but the huge secret hidden behind it. Back then, the old emperor believed that Lu Jiuqing was her daughter... When the old events were brought up, there would be no chance for her and Mo Xiao.
Lin Jiuqing raised his hand and rubbed his brows, and said slowly: "My Lady, you also know that this is Lan Yin Palace, right? Without my order, you can't walk out of here alive, do you understand this?"
"I know," Zhou Ruo said calmly, "His Majesty dotes on you. He has placed countless elite soldiers in Lan Yin Palace. Even the Imperial Guards dare not trespass."
"But, so what?" Zhou Ruo said with a smile, "I have already arranged for someone. As long as I don't go out on time, she will spread the news. Then, we will be doomed. I am dead anyway, and I deserve to die. No one around me cares about my life or death. But you are different, Concubine Chen. You are the sweetheart of His Majesty, and you have a smart child like the eldest prince. You will definitely not be willing to give up everything and die with me, right?"
Lin Jiuqing looked at Zhou Ruo for a long while before sighing, "Mingming, you are the imperial concubine, you have the second prince, and your life is going smoothly. Why do you have to fight for something that doesn't belong to you?"
Zhou Ruo lowered her eyes and said softly, "I didn't mean to argue... I just couldn't help it."
She failed to suppress the love that was growing wildly in her heart, nor did she hide the jealousy that arose from not being able to get the love she wanted... She didn't even expect to get it, but when she saw others enjoying everything she couldn't get, she lost control.
She has always been very sober, watching herself gradually sinking into depravity and walking down this road of no return step by step.
Until now, she could only hope for this glimmer of hope.
