Chapter 144 Mercy and evil (1)
Zhao Zimu was not a person who would easily show her emotions. Even when facing Lin Qing, there was not many times that she would be stirred up. However, after going back this time, she ruthlessly sorted him out. It was not for anything else other than mainly for her anger.
She was angry that she hasn’t protected him well and also angry at him for being too careless. He obviously looked like someone quite capable, why was he always being held by a dagger on his neck and always made her frenetic and caught unprepared?
Although, he wasn’t made to kneel on the washboard, but the punishment that Lin Qing received wasn’t light.
He didn’t dare to go rub the place where he was beaten. He would also not tell her that his weakness was created and permitted most of the time deliberately by him, only for her heart to be completely on him.
Lin Qing liked to watch Zhao Zimu worry about him and get angry at him. He knew that she loves him, but he still calculated everything about her like a cunning fox; carefully and even sacrificing himself, only to let her completely belong to him.
He couldn’t control his low self-esteem and his paranoia. He could only calculate her heart bit by bit with a gloomy mind at all times.
He knew that her heart would soften because of him. So, he used his weak side to attract her attention. The whole Great Liang knew that he is the treacherous and ruthless Jiu Qiansui. How could he really be threatened from beginning to end when facing two princes?
In the final analysis, it was himself who was the problem. He had driven almost everyone at his side away and didn’t bring anyone with him. Although, Yue Yi’s group was very outstanding, it was not as if there were not many capable people in the huge Prefecture of Arrest.
However, ever since she showed an interest in him, he used calculation more often than strength.
No one understood human nature better than him. The more a person invest in something, the more he would care about it and would be more unable to let it go.
And he brought her closer to him step by step like this and let her put her heart on him because he could tell from the first time that Zhao Zimu didn’t like him. She only felt sorry for him.
This made him sad and excited and he knew that this was his opportunity.
There are tens of thousands men in the world. Even the worst ones were better than him. It was not that he never thought to do something to impress her, but what did she need him to do for her?
Nothing at all….
That was why he calculated against her, calculated her heart and calculated everyone including himself.
Even if it was despicably, but he has won. Now, she wouldn’t only feel sorry for him, she would also get angry because of him, be indifferent because of him, panic and be at loss because him. Even if she hid it well, but after Situ Yuanxiao put the dagger on his neck, he saw the pain in her eyes which came from her own pain, only because he fell into the hands of others.
From that moment, Lin Qing knew that he had won. Only when one put his heart on a person would one suffer like this for that person.
Hence, he didn’t regret it. Even if he would lose his life, he had to take this gamble. Situ Yaohua was a lunatic and could give up everything for his own objective. And he is the same.
It was just that for him, it was because of her.
After Zhao Zimu bandaged his neck, she fell silent.
Lin Qing looked at her, but when he didn’t pay attention, his butt had been fiercely slapped by her raised hand.
Lin Qing was a bit irritated by her and said, “I’m old. You will be responsible if there are problems because of your slap!”
Zhao Zimu stared at Lin Qing for a long time. Finally, she sighed quietly and said, “Okay.”
She leaned forward and hugged the him who was still dumbstruck. I will be responsible for your everything. I will accept all your wishes.

After Zhao Zimu and Lin Qing left, soon a rumor was spread that the crown prince tried to kill fifth prince with a dagger. This stunned everyone. Why would the crown prince confront his own younger brother?
Not to mention that Situ Yuanxiao is Situ Yaohua’s biological younger brother, Situ Yuanxiao had always stood on Situ Yaohua’s side. Why would Situ Yaohua do this?
Although, Situ Yaohua didn’t admit it, Situ Yuanxiao had been injured by a dagger and the dagger stuck on Situ Yuanxiao’s shoulder was confirmed to be Situ Yaohua’s. Moreover, the antidote for the poison on the dagger was surrendered by Situ Yaohua on his own initiative. No one would believe it even if he had explained that the injury on Situ Yuanxiao’s shoulder was not caused by him.
But none of this matter anymore. He wasn’t someone that could be forgiven. His emperor father would never let him stay alive.
