Chu Qing had roughly guessed the cause and effect, so she said nonsense seriously, "Who knows what kind of attitude Your Majesty has to come to me? What if you fall in love with me at first sight because of today's 'saving grace' and come to throw yourself into my arms to repay me after washing up."

"Nonsense!" Yan Lin was furious with Chu Qing. "If you hadn't put obstacles in my way and brought me back today, I would have..."

"You died a long time ago, right."

"You're the one who died!"

Chu Qing shook her head and said, "I'm telling the truth, not provoking you."

Yan Lin said, "Only a fool would believe that!"

Chu Qing said, "It's better not to be so irritable, young man."

After all, he was the Hero raised by her, so Chu Qing patiently explained to him, "You said that you wanted to be free and go far away alone, but have you ever thought about the future?"

Yan Lin said, "I haven't thought about what's going on outside, but I only know that if I continue to stay with you, you'll kill me sooner or later. How can we talk about the future?"

Chu Qing was not surprised that Yan Lin did not trust her. "At least you're still alive, aren't you?"

Yan Lin snorted coldly.

Chu Qing said, "If you leave like this, you have no power or influence. Where can you get the road guidance and household registration?"

Yan Lin was stunned.

Chu Qing asked, "How are you going to buy a place to live in the future? Where are you going to live? What are you going to eat, drink, and wear?"

Yan Lin frowned.

He had thought about these things, but he didn't think too much about them.

He had thought that the worst outcome would be to return to the life in the Remote Palace.

Chu Qing took out a booklet and threw it to Yan Lin. "Look at your expenses in the past two months."

Yan Lin glanced at it and fell silent.

In the past two months, he had made 16 sets of clothes. Half of them had been bought by Chu Qing, and the other half had been made by the Imperial Household Department.

He was wearing a dragon robe with a price tag of 7900 taels of silver and a plain-clothes suit with a price tag of 2600 taels of silver...

Even the light armour he was wearing cost more than six thousand taels of silver!

In total, the clothes cost about 100,000 taels of silver!

Yan Lin suddenly felt that the booklet in his hand was as heavy as Mount Tai.

He spent a total of 27,000 taels of silver on food, drinks, tonic soup, and so on.

Next was the coronation ceremony, books, and so on...

Yan Lin was silent for a long time. It was not until Chu Qing was sleepy that he said, "But I don't want to be the emperor."

"So what?" Chu Qing looked at him and said, "But you will get the final benefit, won't you?"

Yan Lin asked, "Forcing a deal?"

Chu Qing smiled and said, "In the early morning of the day when the previous emperor passed away, the patrol in the Remote Palace was very relaxed. If you climb over the wall in the northernmost part of the Remote Palace, you will arrive at the back mountain. You can leave the palace by walking in that direction." After that, Chu Qing slowly approached Yan Lin and raised his chin. "But you hadn't left yet."

How could the Hero she wrote be a little puppy who only knew how to be fierce?

The difference between wolves and dogs was that wolves were ambitious, while dogs were loyal.

Yan Lin felt cold all over, and his whole body was a little stiff.

Looking at Chu Qing, who was so close to him, for some reason, Yan Lin suddenly did not dare to look into her eyes.

It was as if the person in front of him had already seen through him.

Yan Lin calmed down. "So what? At that time, I really wanted to see how that trash emperor died. I..."

"You want to lie to me?" Chu Qing suddenly tightened her grip on Yan Lin's chin, leaving two light red fingerprints. "I'm afraid not. In addition to seeing how the previous emperor died, you also want to see if I, the rebel, will be crazy enough to kill all the princes so that I can usurp the throne. Then you can stand up and attract the attention of those Royalists, grow slowly under their protection, and then attack me."

"It's a pity that you didn't expect that I didn't become the emperor myself, nor did I kill all the princes. Instead, I let you kill each other and only one of you survived to ascend the throne. Originally, you wanted to let those Royalists see how I ruined you and wanted to ruin my reputation, but I found the tutor to teach you in the Cabinet. During this period of time, you also found that I almost controlled more than 60 percent of the officials in the imperial court. You felt that it was not the time to fall out with me, so you wanted to find a place to hide and let me be the biggest winner in this matter and let them suspect me, right?" Chu Qing almost said.

After all, she still remembered some of the plot. Thinking of the recent situation, it was not difficult to guess.

Yan Lin felt a chill run down his spine. "Since the Chu Qing has already guessed it, how does the Chu Qing plan to deal with me?"

It was ridiculous that an emperor like him had to listen to Your Highness talk about how to deal with him.

It was ridiculous and pathetic.

Chu Qing said, "Your Majesty, since you know that you have done something wrong, just admit it and correct it."

Yan Lin was stunned. "You're letting me go just like that?"

Chu Qing nodded and said, "Since the large-sized account has been abolished, let's wait for a few years. After Your Majesty marries the Empress and has the Crown Prince, we can practice him."

Yan Lin widened his eyes. "How dare you!"

He had thought that this despicable villain had changed his character, but he didn't expect that he would have designs on his future child!

Yan Lin was in a bad mood, and his voice was a little hoarse. "I'm afraid you will be disappointed in this matter, Chu Qing. I will never have a child in my life!"

Chu Qing looked at the lower half of Yan Lin and asked, "So you really can't do it?"

Yan Lin was livid. "It's none of your business!"

"Tut-tut." Chu Qing said with disappointment in his eyes, "Unfortunately, if I had known that you couldn't do it, I should have kept one more prince. I don't know if the previous emperor would have jumped out of the coffin in anger after learning about it."

Yan Lin gritted his teeth. "Please conduct yourself with dignity, Chu Qing."

"Brothers, Your Highness asked me to look for him. Can I go in now?"

A clear voice came in, followed by the guard's refusal.

Chu Qing thought that he would definitely come in to report later, so she let go of Yan Lin. After all, she had to show some respect to the Hero. "Who's outside?"

When she lifted the curtain, she saw a handsome man in royal blue clothes standing outside.

Seeing Chu Qing come out, the handsome man smiled happily and said, "Your Highness, I want to practice martial arts with you so that I can repay you for saving my life in the future!"

Chu Qing, "??? Who are you?"

The handsome man was stunned. "Your Highness! Have you forgotten about me already?"

"A love debt has come knocking on the door?" Yan Lin gloated. "It seems that the Chu Qing has had a lot of love affairs recently, and these affairs... there is no distinction between males and females, hahaha..."

Chu Qing glanced at Yan Lin with a smile and said, "I suddenly remembered that when I came here, I asked someone to bring you 'a few' memorials. I've been thinking about romance recently and have no mood to deal with the affairs of the imperial court. Since Your Majesty is so diligent and love the people and regard the people as your own duty and want to benefit the people, I have to give you this opportunity."

Yan Lin suddenly had a bad feeling. "What do you want to do, Chu Qing!"

"Come on." Chu Qing smiled faintly and said, "Hurry up and fulfill Your Majesty's kindness and send Your Majesty to deal with office?"

"The subordinate obeys!"

The guards quickly surrounded Yan Lin and said, "Your Majesty, please move out!"

Yan Lin gritted his teeth. "You win!"

However, when Yan Lin passed by, the man's gaze paused on Yan Lin for a moment.

It seemed that he had come at the wrong time.

It turned out that the "war" between Your Majesty and the Chu Qing was so fierce?

After dealing with the Hero, Chu Qing looked at the man and said, "Can you tell me who you are now?"

The handsome man looked aggrieved. "Your Highness, don't you remember Hu Yaqi you saved last night?"

Chu Qing said, "... That's early in the morning."

Hu Yaqi didn't remember last night, but she remembered Mammy Rong at the bottom of the West River.

Hu Yaqi said, "It's almost the same. Anyway, it's not dawn yet. Last night was the same as the early morning."

At this moment, Chu Qing looked at Hu Yaqi as if she were looking at an immature child. "Well, in your opinion, it is indeed the same."

After getting the approval of Chu Qing, Hu Yaqi seemed to have the confidence all of a sudden. "My bosom friend! I just said that to my second uncle, but he hit me! Your Highness agrees with me! It's really his own problem!"

"I've thought about it for a long time after I went back. I always feel that I can't thank you enough. If Your Highness is not willing to accept me as a pawn, then... just accept me as a toyboy!"

"After all, there's nothing I can do to repay you for saving my life. I only have this face, so I decided to marry you..."

Chu Qing only felt that a mouthful of blood was stuck in her throat.

Where was her sickly richest man?

Who was this silly idiot in front of her?

Hu Yaqi couldn't understand why Chu Qing was so confused. He even surrounded Chu Qing and complained about his uncle excitedly.

It just so happened that the assistant minister of the Ministry of War had something to discuss with the commander of the Imperial Guards. When he passed by, he heard what Hu Yaqi said.

Looking at the assistant minister of the Ministry of War who looked as if he had eaten a fly, Chu Qing poked the chattering Hu Yaqi "kindly".

Hu Yaqi asked, "What's wrong? Do you also think my uncle is an old-fashioned man?"

Well, now Hu Yaqi could choose when he would die.

Chu Qing pointed behind him.

Hu Yaqi looked over in confusion, then his face stiffened in an instant.

"Greetings, Your Highness." The assistant minister of the Ministry of War bowed to Chu Qing, then gave Hu Yaqi a sharp look and left.

It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

There were still many opportunities to deal with this little bastard. He didn't want to lose his grace in front of the Chu Qing.

Hu Yaqi turned his neck around stiffly. "...Your Highness, I think I'm doomed."

Chu Qing nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, I think so too."

Hu Yaqi asked, "Do you think I can be saved?"

Chu Qing sounded a little uncertain. "Maybe?"

Hu Yaqi: QAQ
