Lin Moran clenched her fists hidden under her wide sleeves, almost crushing her silver teeth. In front of everyone, she did not dare to show any displeasure on her face. She was so aggrieved that she wished she could die on the spot.
Lin Chuhun didn't care and met her eyes directly. Can't stand it anymore? This is just the beginning!
"Liu Catkin, take that woman and go."
Lin Moyun opened her mouth and chuckled silently, letting the guards hold up her arms one by one and drag her out.
"Wait a minute." Lin Chu raised his head carelessly: "My Majesty, I cannot take this person away."
"This person is pretending to be my third sister. I want to interrogate the whole matter carefully, isn't it allowed?" Lin Moran glared at Lin Chu angrily, almost spitting out fire.
"You really can't." Lin Chu said with a smile on his lips: "You can't touch this woman."
Lin Moran sneered again and again: "Why can't I touch a woman of unknown origin?"
"Because..." Lin Chu's eyes narrowed slightly. He glanced at Lin Moyun and saw her blinking her eyes and staring at him with interest. Then she curled her lips and a smile appeared in her eyes.
"Because she is the concubine of a hero of Western Chu. Even though she is not the official wife, she should be respected accordingly. Is that right, Eunuch Li?"
"...Huh?" Li Zongtai was stunned. The hero of Western Chu refers to him? So...he has another concubine? Marrying wives and concubines, etc. Why doesn't he know anything as the person involved?
Li Zongtai shuddered hard when he met Lin Chu's gaze. The young man's gaze was so sharp that when she stared at him, it felt like someone was strangling his throat tightly, and even his breathing was greedy.
"Yes, that's right." Li Zongtai understood and nodded obediently.
"Lu An." Lin Chu turned his head with satisfaction: "Go and invite my aunt back."
"Okay." Lu An walked towards Lin Moran and his group with a smile: "Everyone, please give way."
He spoke politely, but his strength was astonishing. He knocked away the imperial guards in a few clicks, and lifted Lin Moyun back with one hand.
Lin Moyun's eyes surged, and she looked deeply at Lin Chu.
Boom!
She knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed to Lin Chu solemnly.
Lin Chu lowered his eyes and looked at her: "You are Eunuch Li's concubine. You should kowtow to your mistress."
Lin Moyun knelt down at Su Wen's feet and kowtowed firmly again.
Su Wen looked at her, with no trace of happiness or anger in his face: "Get up, as long as you have a bright eye and a clear heart, you will not be sad in the future."
Lin Moyun nodded, hesitating and refusing to get up.
"She has a new life today." Lin Chu said to Su Wen, "Everything in the past is a passing thing, so you can give her a new name."
Su Wen pondered for a moment and looked into Lin Moyun's eyes. Those eyes had lost their former vigor, there was no calculation of resentment, only a palpitating peace.
"From now on, you will be called Honeysuckle. The winter is bleak, but as long as you can endure it, there is no need to worry about encountering the bright sun." She said.
Lin Moyun's eyes only froze for a moment, then became full of mist, and her crystal eyes kowtowed solemnly to Su Wen.
Honeysuckle! She loves it!
"The Concubine Xian hasn't left yet?" Lin Chu glanced at Lin Moran, whose face was scorched. "Just in time. Eunuch Li is getting married, and he has married a wife and a concubine. You gave Su Wen five hundred taels as a gift.
When it comes to adding money to your makeup, you can't favor one over the other, so you have to prepare three hundred taels for Lonicera."
Lin Moran was stunned and stared at Lin Chu angrily. How did you have the nerve to say this?
"Three hundred taels is not enough?" Lin Chu smiled, his face not red, his heart not beating, misinterpreting Lin Moran's anger: "Then four hundred taels, if four hundred taels is not enough..."
"Okay!" Lin Moran gritted his teeth: "Just four hundred!"
"Your Majesty, I feel dizzy and uncomfortable, so please leave!"
