The wife is the king of the palace

Chapter 63 Take care of your people

Lin Xu froze for a moment, his eyes were dull and exaggerated for a moment, but he soon came back to his senses.

Lin Xu took another sip of tea. The tea in this deserted inn at the corner of the street is naturally not as good as in the palace, and because there are not many people at this time of year, the shopkeepers are also neglecting a lot, and the tea is already a little cold.

After drinking the tea, Lin Xu looked at Jin Qi with those dark eyes that seemed bottomless, "I really don't know, so the emperor still has this ability."

While speaking, Lin Xu couldn't help but draw Chongqing Qi's face down a little bit, as if he really wondered that Jin Qi could even do this.

"I'm just joking." He looked at Jin Qi's waist and abdomen, and his whole body was tense and numb. What the hell is going on in Lin Xu's mind!

"I thought I really wanted to impress the emperor." Lin Xuyu withdrew his gaze, and his unhurried tone would be particularly pleasant if he didn't care about the meaning of his words.

"I said I was just joking." A bit of shame appeared on Jin Qi's face. He couldn't do this kind of thing, so naturally he couldn't impress Lin Xu.

Lin Xu was silent, he raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the atmosphere in the room was suddenly silent, but Jin Qi didn't care about other things at all, he was still entangled with the previous things, "And why is it my next life?"

Although what he said was just a joke, why did Lin Xu think it was his afterlife?Also being a man, maybe why did he decide that he was the one being oppressed?

Lin Xu glanced at him, and you gave him a look that you thought otherwise, and let Jin Qi understand it by himself.

"I am the emperor, the son of heaven!" Jin Qi puffed up his chest, but he was the king of a country and the king of ninety-five.

Lin Xu still didn't speak, just looked at the emperor in front of him quietly.

It's true that Jin Qi is the emperor, but Lin Xu doesn't think he has done less than Jin Qi when it comes to what he has done for Dayu.

Jin Qi instantly became Lin Xu's eyes and understood his meaning, and he felt a little guilty for a while even though he was still puffed up.Since Lin Xu became prime minister, he has let Lin Xu handle most of the affairs in the court.

An emperor who is too dictatorial cannot maintain the balance between the court and China. Jin Qi only understood this after becoming emperor for a few years.

If there is no division of power between the DPRK and China and no intrigue, if the hearts of all officials are really tied together, it can only mean that they have a larger unified enemy.Instead, it would be easier for them to fight among themselves.

It's just that Jin Qi is no longer a dictatorship and everything is in his hands, but many things still have to be done by someone. Xu Lan has gradually faded out of the court and doesn't care about things. The only person Jin Qi can rely on is Lin Xu, and there are many capable people Lao, he really worked hard, Jin Qi has always understood this.

Jin Qi had a guilty conscience, but he did not lose his momentum when he lost. He quickly put away his guilty conscience and said mysteriously with his eyes squinted: "I am the most honorable, above ten thousand people. Although the prime minister is also honorable, he is below one person and above ten thousand people." , doesn’t the prime minister even know about this?”

Jin Qi bites the words "under one person" very hard, so it goes without saying that this person is him, the emperor.

Jin Qi had reason and evidence, and Lin Xu couldn't refute what he said, so he simply ignored Jin Qi's fallacious reasoning and ignored it.

"Don't ignore me." Jin Qi squeezed the teacup in his hand with a cracking sound.

In front of outsiders, Lin Xu has always been omnipotent, wise and close to a monster. In fact, after getting along with him for a long time, he will find that he is not always that flawless appearance.

In private, Lin Xu also has times when he can't say it. Although such times are rare, they do exist.

And often at this time, he would pretend not to hear and ignore it. If he was in a hurry, Lin Xu would even throw the bag out.

Jin Qi had the experience of being thrown out before, he wanted to resist at first, but he couldn't, so he had no choice but to give up in the end.

The previous things can be let go, but not this time, because this is a matter of principle and cannot be tolerated.

"Under the whole world, is it the king's land? Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish." Jin Qi narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at Lin Xu in front of him.

However, even if Lin Xu gained his trust again, he was nothing more than a courtier in the final analysis. He didn't believe that Lin Xu really dared to oppose him.

Lin Xu heard the threat in Jin Qi's words, and looked away from the window, affectionately and coldly, he leisurely looked at the shocked person in front of him.

"Huh?" Lin Xu made a soft nasal sound.

Hearing Lin Xuna's nasal inquiry, Jin Qi, who had a dangerous look on his face, didn't last for a moment, his eyes flickered, "Well... I'm just talking casually."

After finishing speaking, Jin Qi felt that being the lord of a country seemed too imposing, so he bit the bullet and puffed up his chest to pretend to be fierce, but it didn't take long for him to be discouraged under the gaze of Lin Xu's black eyes.

Jin Qi was discouraged, and when he came out of Lin Xu's room, he was downcast. He went back to the room, followed Lin Xu's example after checking the room, and then collapsed on the bed without moving.

After dinner in the evening, Jin Qi went back to the room early to take a shower and wash up. This is not the palace, so it is not so convenient. It was already moonlight when Jin Qi finished washing up.

Jin Qi went to the next room and knocked on the door, but when there was no answer, he went downstairs to look for him. He was going to ask the waiter to ask Lin Xu's whereabouts, but when he went downstairs, he saw Lin Xu sitting in the backyard of the inn.

It is autumn now, and the weather has already turned cold. Sooner or later, you even need to wear a thicker coat to keep warm.

Lin Xu sat alone in the small courtyard, with only a low table beside him. There was a jug of wine and several cups on the table. Under the silent moonlight, he became more deserted and quiet.

"Why don't you go to rest?" Jin Qi stepped forward, breaking the silence.

Jin Qi actually didn't like seeing Lin Xu like this, because it always gave him the illusion that Lin Xu was not in this world.It's fine if it's someone else, but Lin Xu is the one he wants to hold in his hands.

"Want a drink?" Lin Xu pointed to the stool next to him.

Lin Xu is not addicted to alcohol, and he would touch it less if it is not necessary, but drinking occasionally has a special taste, especially when it is rare to have a few days off now.

"You don't need to go to the morning or get up early tomorrow, but I can have a drink with you." Jin Qi sat down beside him, took a glass and poured himself a glass.

The wine really disappointed him, it was just a spicy taste, without much taste.

If you really compare it, life in the palace is naturally easy, everything is done by servants, food, clothing and shelter are extremely good, there is nothing wrong with it except that you are not free.

For others, freedom may be precious, but for Jin Qi, such a day is already what he longs for.

His identity does not allow him to give up everything, and even all these are the guarantees for his survival, so he has already given up those unrealistic ideas.

But at this moment, Jin Qi thought a little bit more, if they could really give up everything, they are just ordinary people, they are only busy with life every day, it seems not bad to return from sunrise to sunset.

"What are you thinking?" Lin Xu was a little curious, and Jin Qi was rarely quiet.Jin Qi was never like this in front of outsiders, but there seemed to be endless things to say in front of him, and Lin Xu had long been used to listening quietly to him talking non-stop.

"I'm thinking that it's not bad to live the life of ordinary people like this. I'm busy and self-sufficient every day, boring but also enough." Jin Qi laughed.

Obviously he still has three days to get along with Lin Xu. Before that, he had been very excited and looking forward to it, but at this moment he felt dissatisfied. It would be great if it could be like this forever.

"You really think so?" Lin Xu asked.

While the two of them were talking, the waiter walked past the corridor, the manager of the shop had gone to rest early, and only the waiter was left to look after him.

When he walked by, he looked this way curiously, his eyes were full of inquiry and incomprehension.

There are not many tourists here in this season, and there are only two of them in the entire inn. Lin Xu and Jin Qi, who can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people, are naturally very eye-catching, and it makes the waiter in the inn even more uneasy. I understand why they would think of coming here to play at this time.

店小

Er walked past and returned to the lobby, where Jin Qi replied: "It was just a whim."

This idea was just a whim on his mind, and it could only be a whim. Their identities did not allow them to take it seriously, so instead of wishful thinking just adding trouble, Jin Qi resolutely strangled him to death the moment the idea came out.

As Jin Qi said this, he changed his posture and sat down. He took the wine pot on the table, rolled up his sleeves and filled Lin Xu's empty glass like how others pour wine with him on weekdays.

As the lord of a country, it is naturally not his turn to do these trivial things, and Dayu, the person who can make him pour wine, does not exist anymore.

Jin Qi doesn't think about these things, only at this moment, it's not bad.

Lin Xu noticed Jin Qi's actions, but he didn't point it out, and didn't think about their identities.

He took a glass of wine and sipped lightly. After the cold wine entered his mouth, there was a burst of scalding heat, and the strength of the wine was a bit offensive, which just offset the coldness of this autumn day.

Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Jin Qi opened his mouth and was about to say something pleasant, when suddenly a black shadow flashed beside him, and the dark guard who was swung back by him appeared in the yard.

Seeing the dark guard, Jin Qi immediately had a stinky face. He had already told him not to disturb him unless it was a serious matter.

"What happened?" Lin Xu asked.

The dark guard clasped his fists at the two of them, explaining the purpose of his visit. The court had been discussing the construction of the dam a few days ago, and now the situation has basically been settled, but the Jinqi imperial decree is still needed to allocate funds from the treasury.

Before Jin Qi left, he did not leave an imperial decree. He found the palace at the medicinal bath, and this matter could not be delayed for a moment, so the dark guards came to find him.

Hearing the reason of the incident, Lin Xu looked at Jin Qi, "Your Majesty, take good care of your people." Jin Qi had said before not to bring anyone, only the two of them came here.

Jin Qi choked when he heard the words, "I take good care of my people, what about the prime minister?"

Lin Xu was in charge of the disaster relief, and Wan Yu was also one of his people. No matter how you looked at it, it had nothing to do with Lin Xu.

Hearing this, Lin Xu raised his eyes lightly, glanced at Jin Qi quietly, and said, "The minister is taking care of it."
