The two people walked away and Lin Beishang's gaze remained as cold as before then closed the door of his residence.
Really sucks.
His eyes had become heavy from not being able to fall asleep overnight so that he could only sit and ponder and think about the various events in his life.
Although he had been viewed as a God in the eyes of many people but in fact, Lin Beishang felt that he still had many weaknesses and needed to do a lot of self-introspection.
Because according to him, if one is easily satisfied with the splendor of the pseudo-eating person is destined to achieve nothing.
Hard on yourself, then someone can step forward and reach new heights.
Lin Beishang put on his clothes and prepared with his official clothes then kept the medicine he had concocted in his clothing pocket.
Then put on thick clothes made of mink fur, then walk through the winter outside.
It has entered a change of seasons and winter has come, at this time the air becomes much colder than usual.
Lin Beishang walked with his usual firm steps as if he would walk away with no way to return.
Arriving at the Emperor's residence, he saw that there were many guards and that the guard had become twice as tight.
"Eunuch Luo, what about Huangfu's state ?" Lin Beishang asked with an anxious look that was very real even his eyes became watery which showed that he was very gentle.
"Yingfei Gongzhu, fortunately Bixia had only superficial wounds on her body and was lying down to rest her body. " Sayor Luo.
"Eunuch Luo, you must properly ensure that criminals must be captured and punished according to this matter ! Hold the First Prince and the Third Princess and the Fourth Princess. " Lin Beishang's orders were resolutely and his gaze was sharp.
"It....... " Easim Luo could not immediately decide because she felt that Lin Beishang did not have the right to this.
"The three of them are the Daughters of Traitors, how could this possibly be delayed ? Don't let them miss even a bit of their residence or if they run away, does Eunuch Luo want to endure this ?" Lin Beishang asked coldly and his gaze was hateful as if he was really angry.
"Yes, Gongzhu. " Say eunuch Luo said as she lowered her head deeply and opened the door for him.
Lin Beishang walked in and saw his father, Lin Beishang closed the door and his anxious face was nowhere to be seen anymore.
"Beishang saluted father, the matter of the first Prince, the third Princess, and the fourth Princess has been resolved, you need not worry. " Said Lin Beishang with a faint smile.
"Thank you, it is inconvenient for me to settle this matter, after all they are my own flesh and blood. " She complained Lin Xi.
"Father, if you become Emperor then there will be no flesh blood of your own or whatever it is, as long as it violates it is worthy of punishment. You don't want your problems to be poisoned, sticking to the surface so I can only make this matter for you. " Say Lin Beishang while pouting.
"Yes, yeah, yeah. Beishang is the wisest man, I sometimes feel that you are wiser than I am. " Said Lin Xi.
"Unfortunately I am not interested in the position of Emperor. Is that the position of Emperor ? How should we call it ? A controlled doll ?" Lin Beishang asked with a mocking smile.
"Not wrong, it's true. It was a controlled puppet. " Say Lin Xi while nodding tiredly.
"If you don't want to be controlled then you shouldn't be bound to any one power or too timid, in other words you should have your own power. " Speak Lin Beishang while thinking.
"Hm, own strength and determination. Not many people dare to do that. This throne, looks full of gold from the outside but actually rotted inside even to its roots. " Say Lin Xi with a sigh.
"Formerly, I was not Crown Prince, I was the second Prince and my influence was inferior so it could only rely on the strength of the nobles and my ambitions. It was further fueled by the 'it' incident" continued Lin Xi heavily.
Lin Beishang's heart sank and his gaze darkened, in a single word, Lin Beishang instantly realized, what event Lin Xi meant.
The Northern Tang Dynasty had long been a thorn in the heart of the Old Emperor, Father Lin Xi. Anyone who could defeat him would then be able to become a hero in the eyes of the Old Emperor.
And in the end, Lin Xi managed to do that and the Crown Prince at that moment was unable to do this.
Lin Xi's position instantly rose within the Old Emperor's heart and the title of Crown Prince was bestowed on him, Lin Beishang sighed.
To obtain the throne, do not know how much blood must be shed, how many tears flowed and how many lives left without being able to return again ?
"The cost you have to pay is too great for this ugly position, father. " Speak Lin Beishang while staring at Lin Xi.
"Thousands of the army and the people are staring at you, asking you to pay for it, do you not feel guilty ?" Asked Lin Beishang with a slightly trembling voice.
"Even Lin Yue initially had no idea that she was from the Northern Tang Dynasty, and she had absolutely no sympathy for her outgoing mother, grandfather, grandmother and uncle ! Don't you feel your heart is burdened at all ?" Ask Lin Beishang again.
"My heart is burdened ! My brother, he, everyone I killed chased me and asked me to pay for it with my life ! He blames me, he hates me, he wants me dead ! The path to this throne is filled with blood and I have killed many people for the sake of sitting in my current position !"Said Lin Xi desperately.
"Dad, you already know that the path to this throne is filled with blood and you still ask Lin Yue to run her, do you want her to feel the same guilt that you are experiencing ? I don't understand, you gave me that title because you hated him or because you loved him ?! Since young , he has worked harder than anyone else, spending every moment to meet your standards, doing all he can to satisfy you ! Is it because your guilt has pushed him to a corner like this ? You want her to look the same as mom, from how she talks to how she works! Have you ever personally thought about her feelings ?!"Lin Beishang asked with a gasp of anger.
"You feel guilty to mom, but you vented her on Lin Yue and wanted her to replace mom just so you wouldn't feel guilty towards her." Said Lin Beishang in a weak voice.
Lin Beishang's character was stubborn and ambitious just like Lin Xi's, the father and son's relationship was needless to say, like it was made from the same mold.
While Lin Yue had a gentle character and was easily satisfied with what she got, in other words not very ambitious.
Just wanting a peaceful life, just like Xia Ling, because of these few resemblances, Lin Xi's heart had gone crazy and indirectly wanted to make Lin Yue become exactly the same as Xia Ling.
Wanting to make Lin Yue behave, say a word, and act the way Xia Ling did, was thus able to reduce the guilt that Lin Xi had.
The only thing that bothered Lin Xi was that Lin Yue's face was not too similar to Xia Ling's face, although it remained a rare beauty but still had some differences with Xia Ling.
It was different from Lin Beishang whose face was exactly the same as Xia Ling but her innate manner was too different from Xia Ling.
This had been making a struggle in Lin Xi's conscience for the past few days and it just so happened that Lin Beishang had directly brought it up.
"What you are doing now by forcing him to continue to ascend to the throne will set him in a struggle within his conscience, no wonder if in the future he would not even remember who he was anymore. It's all because of your selfishness, dad. Think good and look back, how much struggle was given by Lin Yue to please your heart ? But, no matter how much he tries, you will become even more dissatisfied. "
"At the very least, you should give it to yourself to decide on her own life. He is a man made of flesh and blood, not a puppet that you can control as you please. " Speak Lin Beishang tiredly as he looked at the documents that were on Lin Xi's nightstand.
It was not for no reason that she said the pain that Lin Yue had been in all this time, because when she entered, she had accidentally seen the file on this table.
Where Lin Xi was trying to match up Lin Yue with a son of an extremely brilliant noble, while Lin Yue herself had had someone in her heart.
Lin Beishang took the file and tore it into thousands of pieces and nonchalantly took out the medicine he had made.
"Drink this once a day until the medicine runs out and at that time, Poison Gu will be completely annihilated from within your blood. I'll say goodbye first, Bixia. " Said Lin Beishang, choosing to use the word 'Bixia' to call Lin Xi, indicating that she was really serious about the word he said earlier.
When Lin Beishang's hand reached the doorknob, his movement halted for a moment due to Lin Xi's voice.
"I'm sorry. " Said Lin Xi.
Lin Beishang turned his head back and looked right at Lin Xi's eyes, then smiled faintly.
"Don't apologize to me because I'm not the real victim, I say retreat first, sorry for my previous insolence. " Say Lin Beishang said with a meaningful smile and walked out.
Arriving outside, Lin Beishang's smile instantly disappeared and felt that the air had become twice as cold as before.
Lin Beishang tightened his coat but still could not resist shaking then stiffly, crouched down beside the Emperor ' Residence building, then hugged himself.
"Lin Yue, I hope you're okay now. Right now, I have fought all I can so that you can get the right to all your choices including your right to choose who you marry. If the Emperor is still stubborn then I really have no way to help you. " Murmured Lin Beishang with a cold tremble.
It wasn't that he didn't have any other strength to fight against Lin Xi, he naturally had that power even he could directly shift Lin Xi from above the current throne.
But, the problem was that he couldn't bear it when he saw Lin Xi's gaze that looked extremely sad and tormented.
Just once and Lin Beishang would not bear to have to argue again with Lin Xi let alone stab the old man's sore point again like he did earlier.
They met not long but they were experiencing the same pain, Lin Beishang masik crouched down and hugged himself tightly.
Before there was finally an extra coat given to him, Lin Beishang looked up to see who gave him the coat.
His gaze collided with the gaze of the person who gave him the coat and in a short time his coldness had dissipated.
Lin Beishang was silent as the person tied his coat to his body and reached out to help his standing, Lin Beishang accepted the helping and directly hugged the person.
The person patted his back gently but it was more than enough to make his day very calm.
"Thank you, thank you for coming here. " Murm Lin Beishang.
"If I don't come, then will you make yourself freeze here ? You're gonna keep squatting here in guilt ?"Bei Zhao asked, yes that person is Bei Zhao.
Bei Zhao was like a warm for him in the winter and his conditioning in the summer, indirectly Lin Beishang meant that he needed Bei Zhao most.
"How do you know that this is all caused by guilt ?" Lin Beishang asked in confusion.
"I've heard that the Emperor wants to match Miss Lin up with an honorable Noble Son and I know that you must be vehemently opposed to this. I know your habits very well. "
"You felt that you owed Lin Yue so much that you wanted to protect Lin Yue very well but in the end you also did not have the heart to make your old father to feel sad, either, isn't that so ?" Ask Bei Zhao.
Lin Beishang tightened his embrace on Bei Zhao because of what Bei Zhao said about him, nothing was wrong.
Bei Zhao had guessed her very well, understood her very well, really made her lose her word.
"If you have sadness then you can tell me, because I am older than you then I can bear it for you. "Chap Bei Zhao with a sincere smile while stroking his hair.
