Emperor Jin

Chapter 144 Reversal
"I didn't come to proclaim an edict."

Bao Jin replied calmly, black and angry like stars in the water, shining with confusing light.

"Then, you are here to see the joke, to see that I am overestimated and have fallen into such a situation?!"

Xu Yinghua sneered, her voice raised slightly, but someone in the inner hall coughed and said: "Outside...who is here?"

The voice was weak and floating, and the appearance of lack of energy, but vaguely familiar, Bao Jin suddenly thought of the elegant and wise concubine who was in charge of the palace affairs but not frightened or humiliated when he first returned to the palace.

She glanced around the courtyard and saw fallen leaves piled up all over the ground, dust covered the porch pillars, flowers and branches were wilted and weeds were growing randomly, but no one took care of them. Seeing the coldness of the world, she also sighed inwardly.

"Yinghua...?"

Seeing that no one answered, the voice became more doubtful, and then the bed rang, Xu Yinghua felt a pain in his heart, and said softly: "Long live sent someone to visit us!"

"yes……?"

Concubine Yun Xian's voice was dazed, blankly filled with joy and anger, but after a while, it turned into a low sigh, "He has this heart, so that's all..."

She struggled and still wanted to get up, Xu Yinghua hurriedly shouted in a low voice, "Auntie, don't get up, if the condition gets worse, won't it make Wan Sui worry?"

Coughing started again, but Concubine Yun Xian whispered dejectedly: "You're right..."

After resting for a while, she stopped coughing and asked, "What is Long Live's purpose?"

Bao Jin had expected it a long time ago, and said: "Long live, please don't worry, my lady. Now that Mr. Chen Gui's assassination has been exposed, Wan live also knows your grievances. I will ask about this again some day. My lady, please relax!"

She winked at Xu Yinghua, and then smiled gracefully: "Your Majesty, take good care of your illness, everything will be fine."

Xu Yinghua also pretended to be joyful, and said with a smile, "Long live, I have not forgotten to wait. Auntie, you are finally watching the clouds and seeing the moon."

The two comforted Concubine Xian for a while, and then quietly walked to the small pond in the courtyard, Xu Yinghua suppressed her smile, and was about to ask a question, but Bao Jin said: "Don't be too happy, even though Langjia has collapsed , but the maidservant of your family keeps saying that she stole the imperial decree, if this knot is not untied, it will be a daydream if she wants to make a comeback!"

Xu Yinghua's eyes flashed, and he also said in a low voice: "What can we do, that girl has a red mouth and white teeth, and she swears that even if we arrest her whole family and kill her, it won't be able to bring her back."

Bao Jin chuckled, and with his lips slightly parted, his voice was soft and terrified, "That's what I want you to do!"

She met Xu Yinghua's suspicious eyes, and whispered a few words in her ear, Xu Yinghua's eyes burst into brilliance, and she couldn't help applauding, "Your move is simply a stroke of genius!"

Immediately, her eyes turned deep, and she looked at Bao Jin complicatedly, "Why did you save us?"

Bao Jin knew her thoughts well, and deliberately smiled shyly, his beautiful eyes were blurred, as if he couldn't hide his worry, "You and Concubine Xian are close relatives of Prince Jing, and now someone is framing you, and it's Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, which is intended to Peigong..."

"You really belong to my uncle."

Xu Yinghua thought he understood her thoughts, a stern light flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Our Yun Family is really like a tiger with wings added, with your help."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not going with you, I just... don't worry about him."

Bao Jin denied it, and lowered his head slightly, as shy as a water lotus, but there was a slight sadness and resentment in his brows, which made Xu Yinghua believe it even more.

"Little uncle is really willing to part with you, a flowery beauty..."

She laughed teasingly, but it was not without malicious temptation.

There seemed to be a layer of moisture in Baojin's black eyes, she bit her lips and sighed, then turned around and left, leaving only one sentence, "Take care of yourselves."

She pulled back her skirt and walked away, her thin back looked lonely and weak, as if trembling in the wind, feeling Xu Yinghua's jealous and menacing eyes like thorns behind her, Bao Jin smiled slightly in her heart——

The fish has been hooked, and next, we have to see how they perform...

She was in a happy mood, and there was a smile on her lips when she returned to her residence. Knowing that she had gone to Jincui Palace, Ji Xin couldn't help complaining: "Miss, why bother to help those aunt and nephew, they may not be able to accept your favor."

"They are very useful..."

Bao Jin was leaning on the couch, shaking the Ninglu tea in his hand, letting the breeze blow the soft early summer palace skirt, looking leisurely——

"If they are allowed to fall here, Yun Shi will save people desperately—although he has ulterior motives, he will not just let his relatives die, but at this time he does not have the perfect strength yet, and if he really has a relationship with the emperor, If we meet in battle, I'm afraid...the odds of winning are not great."

"Miss really cares about this cloud time..."

Ji Xin smiled softly, in exchange for Bao Jin's eyes.

"I don't feel sorry for him so much—I just wait until his wings are full, which will prompt him to break with the emperor. At that time, Shu and Jiangnan will respond together, and it will be a matter of time."

Baojin said word by word, his voice was as awe-inspiring as a millennium of ice and snow, and as his eyes moved, he saw a well-planned silence.

"Miss... You have also changed in the past year!"

A complicated light flashed in Ji Xin's eyes, and she smiled as if nothing had happened.

"Silly boy, in this world, who can stay the same?"

Bao Jin smiled gently, but there was always a lingering sadness in his black pupils——

She recalled the time when she fell in love with Li Xin, she whispered together: "From now on, this heart will not change, but the sun and the moon will shine."

When she thought of this sentence, she actually laughed, laughing so much that she fell down on the couch, laughing so hard that tears were about to flow——

"In the end, none of us can illuminate the sun and the moon...just, joking, one...that's all."

She coughed lightly, and finally suppressed her smile.

Outside the window, the bright moon is in the sky, shining all over the earth, compassionate, but cold as ice.

****
The case of Concubine Yunxian was full of twists and turns, and in the afternoon of the next day, there were new twists and turns.

The emperor was about to take a nap, but he heard someone outside the palace pestering and obstructing him, as if arguing about something.

"Go out and see."

After Zhang Xun took the order, he came back just a moment later, with a troubled expression on his face, and said, "You're a lunatic, this slave will just drag you away."

"I'm not crazy... I want to see Long Live!!"
