After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of Hunjun
Chapter 260 Died for her
When the emperor issues an order, is there any reason not to obey?
In just one morning, the troupe set up the stage.
The courtyard of Weiyang Palace has been cleaned long ago. Are there any traces of the person who died last night?
Lin Zhiyu was taken to the Qianyuan Hall last night and huddled in a corner without moving. Zhou Tingchen simply said nothing and went to the Imperial Study Room to handle official business.
At noon, we had lunch as usual, but the atmosphere was more solemn, and no one paid attention to anyone.
After finishing the meal, Zhou Tingchen put down his chopsticks and said, "Eunuch Zhang?"
Eunuch Zhang, who was waiting aside, replied: "The stage has been set up, but... do you want to call the concubines in the harem to join us?"
It's a pity that only two people can watch a big show.
"The stage is set up in Weiyang Palace for the people in Weiyang Palace to see."
Zhou Tingchen said coldly, took a long step, and headed towards Weiyang Palace.
Seeing that Lin Zhiyu remained motionless, Eunuch Zhang persuaded him in a gentle voice: "County Lord, please don't let down the Emperor's painstaking efforts."
This is an honor that no one else can ask for.
Lin Zhiyu gave him a cold look, then stood up and left.
Does she have the right to say no?
The afternoon sun was just right, and a few birds were chirping in the trees.
Under the tree, there were also a few palace ladies chattering.
"Hey, did you hear that another person died in Weiyang Palace yesterday?"
"I said, are there any other unknown things between the county lord and the emperor? It's different from what's written in the storybook!"
Lin Zhiyu paused, but he didn't expect that the story had reached the palace.
But she didn't notice that there was a pair of sinister eyes behind the tree, staring at her.
The palace maids said again: "I don't think it's right either. The emperor is under house arrest and carries people to the Qianyuan Palace. He simply doesn't care about the ladies in the palace anymore."
"That's not true! Maybe there is something between the two of them. Prince Jin and the Queen are both pitiful people."
There was a clear cough from behind.
The palace maids immediately fell silent, seeing that the extremely extraordinary county master they were talking about was standing in front of them, with a pale face.
Lin Zhiyu didn't care about them, jumped over and sat on the chair prepared under the table.
The palace maid thought she was a soft persimmon: "There are only two chairs. I think the county lord will be the queen sooner or later!"
Zhou Tingchen, who was sitting on the side, had a trace of complacency in his eyes.
Lin Zhiyu felt a chill on her back again. She looked back, but there was nothing.
The maids thought they were looking at them, so they were so frightened that they quickly brought melon seeds and fruits and placed them neatly in Lin Zhiyu's hands.
"The Palace of Eternal Life" sings about the life-and-death love between Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Concubine Yang Guifei. In order to protect himself, the noble king in the past had to take the life of his beloved with his own hands.
Lin Zhiyu tilted his head and asked: "The emperor asked me to watch this play alone. Does he want to say that men are ruthless?"
Isn't he also a man?
Lin Zhiyu cursed in his heart.
"As an emperor, there are times when you have no choice but also times when you make mistakes." Zhou Tingchen's eyes were immersed in the drama, "Tell me, if Emperor Tang was given a second chance, would he do the same thing again?"
Lin Zhiyu sat up straight: "He can."
Zhou Tingchen turned to look at her.
Lin Zhiyu said: "I don't understand these emotions. I only know that in the face of power, women can always be sacrificed and abandoned."
"I can't." Zhou Tingchen looked into Lin Zhiyu's eyes, with a hint of hope in them.
You can. Lin Zhiyu said silently in his heart.
If Concubine Yang could come back again, she would never make the same mistake again for such a person.
Zhou Tingchen's eyes became colder a little bit.
There are only three things that can be done. An emperor's submission can only go so far.
The actor on the stage was singing the part of Maweipo: "The flowers are lying on the ground and there is no one to collect them, and the green and green golden birds are scratching their heads. The king hides his face and can't save him. Looking back, blood and tears are flowing!"
"Zheng——" A long sword pierced Zhou Tingchen's face. "Assassin, there is an assassin!"
"Escort!"
"There is also the County Lord, County Lord, be careful——"
A group of people cheered and surrounded him. Seeing that the stabbing failed, the long sword quickly changed direction and was placed on Lin Zhiyu's neck in full view of everyone.
"Hunjun, you are a murderer. Today I want you to experience what it feels like to lose your lover!"
That man seemed to have figured out that Lin Zhiyu was Zhou Tingchen's weakness, and his eyes were full of rage.
It is really rare for a person to assassinate the emperor single-handedly!
The surrounding Imperial Guards did not take this person seriously at all, and were about to rush forward and execute the thief on the spot.
"If you come here, I will kill her immediately!"
"Don't move!" Zhou Tingchen yelled.
Several people looked at each other and did not dare to move rashly.
Lin Zhiyu felt a pain in his neck. The person behind him already had murderous intentions, but he did not make a move.
Also, with one strike, Lin Zhiyu would be dead, and so would he.
He had something else to say.
The person behind was still a young man who was about half his age, and his voice was very loud, as if he was trying to embolden himself.
"Lin Zhiyu, don't think that you died unjustly. Sang Zhi was killed with a stick because of you, and you can't escape the blame!"
Lin Zhiyu's mind flashed to the young man who handed him buns last night.
"Do you have anything else to ask?" Lin Zhiyu said calmly.
Zhou Zijin's matter hasn't come to a conclusion yet, so she can't die yet.
The person behind was startled: "I heard that Sang Zhi left a message. What did she say?"
It turned out that he was here to hear his last words.
Lin Zhiyu felt like his heart was burned again.
"She said she wanted to live for herself."
It seemed like a few tears fell on Lin Zhiyu's back.
On the opposite side, Zhou Tingchen raised his hand and had the archers ready.
"If you don't take action, you'll have no chance." Lin Zhiyu glanced at the wall with his peripheral vision.
The young man held Lin Zhiyu hostage and moved two steps towards Zhou Tingchen.
The surrounding Forbidden Army immediately became alert.
It's okay if the county leader is injured. If the emperor is injured, it's their dereliction of duty!
Zhou Tingchen snatched the bow and arrow from the man next to him, drew the bow and pointed it at the young man, as if he planned to kill him personally.
Eunuch Zhang was a little nervous: "Your Majesty, this..."
"Emperor Dog, I will fight with you!"
The young man roared, pushed Lin Zhiyu aside, and rushed towards Zhou Tingchen with his sword.
The result was of course no suspense. When the sword was still half a foot away from Zhou Tingchen, a sharp arrow shot through the air and pierced his wrist.
At the same time, the arrow in Zhou Tingchen's hand pierced his heart with such force that only an arrow tail was left outside.
Before Lin Zhiyu could react, Zhou Tingchen hugged her into his arms. He did not feel happy about surviving the disaster, but felt calm about knowing that he would win.
"Zhiyu, you see, only I can protect you. Power can harm people, but it can also nourish people."
Lin Zhiyu pushed him away forcefully, ignoring the shock in Zhou Tingchen's eyes and said coldly: "I don't need it."
"Only a fool would put his life and property in the hands of others."
