C16 Do Not Save One's Life When One Sees One's Death

The huge palace was filled with people, and right now, it was completely silent.

Both of Linyunruo's hands were by her side, standing alone in the middle of the hall without the slightest discomfort. On the contrary, she was not surprised that Gongliancheng would brazenly embarrass Gongxuzhi this way.

Sheezhengwang had extraordinary abilities and an indifferent personality, but her words never went around the corner and she was never intimidated by the imperial power. Most people knew that she was an Sheezhengwang.

There were even children's songs singing about the ability of the Sheezhengwang, but there were also people criticizing his lawless ways.

At this moment, the emperor was suppressing his anger, and there were also fearless Sheezhengwang who wanted to go against him. Taifu who dared to not say anything had already been sent back by the emperor, and the atmosphere was so heavy that no one dared to breathe.

With enough power and prestige, Linyunruo raised his eyes and looked at Gongxuzhi, whose face was turning uglier and uglier. He saluted and laughed softly: "Sheezhengwang has always been humorous and witty, Huangshang will definitely understand it better than others."

Hearing that, Gongxuzhi glared at Linyunruo with undisguised hatred. This woman had purposely said the Gongliancheng's rudeness was funny and made him have to admit it!

The hand holding the wine cup trembled because of using too much strength, the wine in the cup rippled along with the hand. Gongxuzhi gnashed his teeth and forced out a cold laugh, "Hmph! The few of them naturally understand the nature of Huangshu, and naturally would not bother about such matters with him. "

After being forgiven for his rudeness, the Gongliancheng did not have any intentions of thanking him. He only nodded his head lightly, took off his outer robes and sat down.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was growing uglier, the Linchangxiong at the side immediately raised his wine cup, stood up and walked to the side of the Linyunruo, and said loudly: "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, with the permission of your majesty, this subject has been able to obtain this wine, and I especially wish your majesty a toast."

Linyunruo was moved by his father's timely appearance to protect him. In order to prevent his father from feeling troubled, he lowered his head lightly.

In the golden palace, Gongxuzhi sat on a seat of honor and looked down at the people below. His gaze moved from Linyunruo to Linchangxiong, and the hand holding the wine cup was still trembling slightly.

He did not speak, and only when Linyunruo looked up at him, did he chuckle lightly. He raised the wine cup to his chest, scanned across the crowd and said, "All of you have worked hard these few days, I offer you a toast."

Hearing that, the group of people looked at each other, but they still smiled and followed suit, raising their wine glasses and drinking with the Huangshang from a distance.

Linjiangjun was respectful to him, but he still directly respected everyone. Linyunruo frowned and was about to speak, but his father lightly tugged at his sleeve.

Linyunruo lowered his eyes and saw his father look at her, indicating that she should stop creating unnecessary trouble.

Good.

Out of respect for her father, she could temporarily not speak.

However, even though she was willing to settle the score for the Linchangxiong, it did not mean that the Gongxuzhi was willing.

Gongxuzhi raised his wine cup and noticed the small movements of the two people in the great hall. In the end, this woman still had a weakness, as long as she had a weakness, she was not afraid of being difficult to deal with.

As he thought about it, Gongxuzhi slowly put down his wine cup. When the servant of the palace went to pour the wine for him, he turned his head to look at Leefei who was still at the side.

Leefei lowered his head. He could not see her expression clearly. Gongxuzhi only looked at her figure and felt that she was indeed a woman that he had his eyes on.

However, his personality was a bit too soft.

If only he had a bit more power than Linyunruo …

Thinking up to here, Gongxuzhi suddenly shot a glance at Linyunruo, who was sitting next to him, only to realize that Linyunruo was looking straight at him. Gongxuzhi's expression suddenly turned fierce, he turned his head and glared at Leefei, "Even Miss Lin is not willing to leave.

Hearing that, Leefei started to tremble, as if he was extremely afraid.

Gongxuzhi's voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear. Linyunruo lowered his head and did not reply, he did not have much responsibility towards Gongxuzhi deliberately placing life and death in his hands.

In the end, she was still someone who needed to rely on the Gongliancheng. She was still unable to save his life from the Gongxuzhi.

Even if Gongxuzhi was being tactful, no one present knew that under such circumstances, he was probably up to no good. The rest of the people looked at Leefei with some sympathy.

At the same time, they also looked towards Linyunruo with a little more dissatisfaction, feeling that this person was not the same person as the benevolent Young Miss Lin that they had previously heard of.

That's right, how could a woman who could hook up with the Sheezhengwang and cause a dispute between the Sheezhengwang and herself be an ordinary woman!

Linzhoucheng was sitting beside Linyunruo. Seeing her lowered her eyes, she thought that she was in a bad mood due to what happened just now. Thus, she raised her wine cup and touched it with the cup in front of Linyunruo.

No matter what the Linyunruo did, as his brother, he was willing to believe in the Linyunruo. Even though the Linyunruo did not seem to care about this matter, he knew that the Linyunruo was not the kind of cold-hearted person that an outsider would see.

Furthermore, in this kind of situation, he believed that the actions of the Linyunruo was not the least bit inappropriate.

When weighing the pros and cons, he would definitely put the General's Estate first in his family, even though he was also deeply moved about the fate of that Leefei.

The Linzhoucheng looked at him and could not help but laugh along with him. He raised his wine cup and clinked it with Linzhoucheng's, "Thank you brother."

Life is short, always trusting one's family is the most important.

Linyunruo drank and lightly patted Linzhoucheng's arm. He told him in a low voice that he had to go out and take a breather, and then quietly left.

Coming out from the main hall, Linyunruo exhaled lightly. Looking at the guards around him, he walked towards the direction of the harem according to his memory.

The night was as dark as ink. A bright moon hung in the night sky, large and round, causing the surrounding stars to lose their luster.

All the way to the imperial harem, he only felt the cool evening breeze, which made him feel extra comfortable. Linyunruo looked at the direction, and walked towards one of the palaces.

When they were passing by the Imperial Garden, they suddenly heard the sound of footsteps from all around them. Linyunruo frowned, upon closer inspection, he realised that the person who came was Gongxuzhi, and beside him was only his personal bodyguard.

They met on a narrow path.

Seeing that Gongxuzhi had already seen her, he was too lazy to avoid her, so he simply walked towards her. Even when she was right in front of him, he did not have any intention of bowing.

"How dare you!"
