Chapter 36: Lin my dear, It’s too difficult for you!
“Miss Shi Shi, why are you crying?” Lin Beifan was shocked.
Li Shi Shi shook her head abruptly and smiled, “Shi Shi is not crying! This is happiness! This is excitement!”
What are you happy about?
What are you excited about?
To tell the truth, Lin Beifan didn’t understand at all!
He was currently doing extremely dangerous things, not knowing when his head would be on the line. As someone who followed him, shouldn’t Li Shi.Shi be worried and fearful?
Why was she instead…
Happy and excited?
Especially her beautiful eyes!
Full of affection and love, all focused on him, making Lin Beifan feel uncomfortable.
So, he said fiercely: “Shi Shi, now that you know my true identity, tell me, how should I treat you? After all, the fewer people who know about my identity, the better!”
However, Li Shishi laughed and bravely approached Lin Beifan step by step: “No matter how you treat me, whether to kill or cut, it’s up to you! But before that, I hope to become your woman!”
Suddenly, Li Shi Shi rushed towards Lin Beifan, tightly hugging his neck, her face against his.
Feeling the warmth in his arms, Lin Beifan’s breathing became urgent: “Won’t regret it?”
“I…I will never regret it!”
So, Lin Beifan picked up the beauty in his arms and rushed to the big bed.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the music was melodious.
At this moment, the white figure outside the window disappeared without a trace.
Inside the palace.
The white figure reported everything they had seen and heard tonight in detail to the Empress.
“The court has become corrupt, with a foolish ruler and sycophantic officials. Even if you are not corrupt, others will try every means to make you corrupt! If you still refuse to be corrupt, they will try everything to bring you down!”
“The current court cannot tolerate an honest official!”
“It’s like a bottle of black and murky ink. Even if a drop of clear water is dripped into it, it will never be washed clean!”
“Since that’s the case, why not go with the flow?”
“They are corrupt, I want to be more corrupt than them! They are treacherous, I want to be more treacherous than them! Otherwise, how can I defeat them?”
“Reputation is irrelevant! After all, I have never thought of being an official for a lifetime. What use is there for these reputations? I’ll serve as long as I can, and if I can’t, then I’ll run away and hide my name. There’s nowhere in the world I can’t go!”
“My biggest dream has never been to be an official! It’s to be a martial arts hero, traveling around the world, helping the weak and defeating the strong, and enjoying the victories and losses…”
The Empress fell into contemplation.
After a long time, she sighed with regret: “Lin my dear, I’ve wronged you!”
She understood Lin Beifan’s suffering too well!
For the sake of the people, she had to give up her own dream and enter the court as a corrupt official, becoming everyone’s disliked object.
But she was the Great Wu Empress, occupying the name of legitimacy. Even if the people underneath her refused, they had no choice but to comply with her.
But what about Lin Beifan?
What he was doing was a hundred times harder than what she had to do!
All the civil and military officials in the court are enemies.
As long as one misstep is taken, there will be no chance of recovery!
he common people do not understand him either, and they curse him as a corrupt official! Surrounded by enemies, there is no one to lend a helping hand! He can only hold on to his beliefs and walk alone.
The empress sighed with pity, “It is really too difficult for him!”
“Yes, it’s is really too difficult for him! He gave up everything to join the corrupt officialdom, fighting against corrupt officials, traitorous officials and all the injustices, tolerating the insults and carrying the burden of shame. His spirit is comparable to the greatest saints in history!”
The white figure followed with a long sigh. She had almost reached the peak of human cultivation, calm and composed, not perturbed by honor or disgrace, impervious to external influences.
However, she was moved by someone for the first time today!
Despite being weak in strength, he possessed a strong and vibrant inner energy. Though his body may be small, his character is great!
“No, he is not alone!” The empress stood up in excitement.
“Since he has no helpers, we will be his greatest helpers! Since he has no backing, we will be his greatest backing! Let us work together to rebuild Great Wu!”
“Your majesty is wise!” The white figure bowed.
The next day, Lin Beifan woke up in a fragrant and soft environment. “Husband, let me help you change your clothes!”
“Husband, let me change your shoes!”
“Husband…” Lin Beifan felt unsettled.
“It’s okay, Shi Shi, I can do all these things myself. You don’t have to bother,” he said.
“But this is what I should do, and I like it!”
Li Shi Shi gave Lin Beifan a seductive glance and continued to serve him. With just one glance, Lin Beifan wanted to hug Li Shi Shi and go back to sleep. He sighed in his heart. No wonder ancient kings did not attend court early. Who would be willing to get up when they had a beautiful woman to sleep with? Under Li Shi Shi’s service, Lin Beifan had already dressed in his official robes.
He then gently lifted Li Shi Shi onto the bed and said, “You worked hard last night and are not feeling well. You can sleep a little longer!”
“Hmm!” Li Shishi nodded happily.
When he was about to leave, Li Shi Shi called out again, “By the way, husband, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll prepare it in advance!”
Lin Beifan smiled, “Anything will do! You are the hostess here, you decide!”
“Okay!” Li Shi Shi nodded happily again. Lin Beifan intended to close his eyes again and continue sleeping, but he couldn’t fall asleep anymore. He turned to look at the window and saw that the day was dawning and all things were beginning to revive. His heart was as beautiful as everything else.
