Lin Jingmo always felt that there was something strange about the border town government office, but she couldn't explain why. At night, she washed up and lay on the bed. Shang Shixu hadn't come back yet because he was still discussing the situation in the northern border. Lin Jingmo tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Thinking back to Lu Feicheng, Lin Jingmo always couldn't believe that he would betray Nan Qi. After all, Lu Anmin was such a hero. Perhaps it was because of his father's shadow that he would choose such a path of no return.

Just as Lin Jingmo was thinking about it, the door was opened and Shang Shixu came back from outside. Seeing that Lin Jingmo was not asleep yet, he walked to the bed and sat down and said, "Madam, why are you still up so late?"

Lin Jingmo sat up, poured tea for Shang Shixu and asked, "Have you had your meal, husband?"

"I've used it." Shang Shixu took off his robe, then hugged Lin Jingmo and asked softly in her ear: "Did you go to Lu Feicheng's study?"

Lin Jingmo was so violently held by him that she twisted her body uncomfortably and replied, "Yes."

Shang Shixu asked: "What did you find?"

"Nothing...but..." Lin Jingmo turned to look at Shang Shixu and asked, "Husband...are you drunk?"

Looking at it so close, Lin Jingmo saw that Shang Shixu's face was flushed. Lin Jingmo pushed Shang Shixu away slightly with some displeasure and said: "You know why we came to the north, how can you get drunk at will!"

Seeing that Shang Shixu was pushed down on the soft couch, Lin Jingmo returned to the bed angrily, then slipped on the bed and lay down.

After turning over, Lin Jingmo sat up suddenly, put on his shoes again, walked out of bed, and shouted: "Qiaoxiang... get some water."

Qiaoxiang brought water in, and Lin Jingmo took it and said, "Go to sleep, I'll take care of it."

After saying that, Lin Jingmo wet the handkerchief, then carefully wiped Shang Shixu's face and hands clean, and helped the staggering Shang Shixu to the bedside and laid him down.

He covered him with a quilt, and then he took another quilt and spread it on the soft couch to sleep.

……

Early the next morning, when Lin Jingmo opened her eyes, she saw Shang Shixu sitting at the table with his back to her, reading something.

She rubbed her eyes, then sat up and asked, "Husband...what are you doing?"

"Sure enough, he has good calligraphy..." Shang Shixu flipped through the copybook in his hand, turned to Lin Jingmo and said, "Is it just for this copybook that Madam went to Lu Feicheng's study yesterday?"

Lin Jingmo was a little confused by Shang Shixu's question... She didn't understand what Shang Shixu was asking, so she didn't answer, she just sat on the dressing table and combed her hair carefully.

Shang Shixu saw that Lin Jingmo didn't take him seriously, so he walked behind her and sulked alone, without speaking for a long time.

Lin Jingmo turned to look at him in confusion and asked, "What's wrong with my husband?"

Shang Shixu did not answer. After a while, he said: "I'm afraid I will spend a lot of time in the military camp these days and will not be able to accompany my wife all the time."

When Lin Jingmo heard this, he was about to say something, but Shang Shixu just threw down the copybook and left.Lin Jingmo really didn't know why, so she picked up the copybook and looked through it again. She didn't know what the problem was, so she had to put the copybook away. She remembered that she saw something on the beam in the study room yesterday. But when he turned around again, Shang Shixian was no longer there.

Lin Jingmo frowned and said angrily: "Where are you singing this?"

Now that Shang Shixu had left, Lin Jingmo had no choice but to go to Lu Feicheng's study alone. Unexpectedly, before he reached the study, he met Han Zilan.

Lin Jingmo said in surprise: "Zilan? Why are you in the north?"

Han Zilan said with a proud look on her face: "Why do you, Lin Jingmo, only allow you to stay with your cousin, but don't allow me to care about him too?"

"What do you mean by this?" Lin Jingmo stopped giving her a good look and said without giving in: "I am the wife he married back in eight sedan chairs. I accompanied him openly and honorably, and you are just his cousin. , what qualifications do you have to care about him? Han Zilan, do you have any shame? Do you know how dangerous the north is now? Why do you..."

Halfway through her words, Lin Jingmo saw Yu Gaizhi behind her.

Lin Jingmo asked in surprise: "Did the Ministry of War send you here?"

Without waiting for Yu Genzhi's answer, Lin Jingmo suddenly remembered that Yu Genzhi was the right-hand man of Zhang Yiqian, Minister of the Ministry of War, and seemed to have a subtle relationship with Shang Shixu.

As for Han Zilan, she is just a woman who has been carried away by love. Why did the two of them get together and why did they come back to the north? I believe that even if I ask, I probably won't get the answer.

Lin Jingmo shook his head and then prepared to leave.

But Yu Gaizhi stopped her and asked: "Mrs. Shang, you must be very proud. Mr. Shang gave up everything he worked hard for you. You may not even know what this means."

Lin Jingmo turned around and looked at Yu Gaizhi displeased and said, "This is his choice, isn't it? Besides, this is a matter between our husband and wife, so it's your turn to take care of it? From what standpoint do you question me?" A gentleman should never regard his own gains and losses as the criterion of conduct. If you can serve the court, how do you know that it is not him? "

"Hahaha..." Yu Gaizhi laughed when he heard this. He walked to Lin Jingmo and said, "What do you know? How well do you know Mr. Shang? I really admire that your mind is still so simple after going through so many things... …”

Lin Jingmo said angrily: "He is my husband! How could I not understand him? I regret that you don't have to make any instigation. We have already experienced life and death and will no longer be suspicious of each other. I believe in him."

"Very good." Yu Aizhi said with a smile: "One day you will know all the truth, and then you will know who Mr. Shang is..."

Lin Jingmo turned around and headed back to the courtyard where he lived.Qiaoxiang saw her getting angry after going out, so she asked: "Madam is injured? Who is so bold?"

Lin Jingmo thought about it carefully. Along the way, the two had experienced so many life and death separations, but until now, she didn't even know Shang Shixu's true identity, which was really annoying.

But then I thought about it again, as long as the two people are in the same mind, Shang Shixu must have his own difficulties, but...

Could it be that I still can't be someone he trusts enough?Is it just because of distrust that you hide it from him?

Lin Jingmo was a little sad. She was like a thief who wanted to peek into other people's hearts. She was clearly his wife, so why couldn't she know things that she should have known openly?
The more Lin Jingmo thought about it, the angrier he became. Thinking of his inexplicable tantrum with him this morning, he couldn't calm down for a long time.
