escape to the end

Chapter 62. The New Emperor

The living room is brightly lit, and the military incandescent lamps illuminate everything so clearly that it feels unreal.Lin Chi was sitting at the table drinking porridge with bowls and chopsticks. Opposite her, Zhou Jin was sitting on the other side of the table looking at documents.

She had already eaten, and she appeared here just to eat with Lin Chi.

It didn't take too long to eat. After Lin Chi put down the bowl, Zhou Jin just flipped through a few documents. When she finished eating, Zhou Jin poured her a glass of water: "Division No. 19 has evacuated from planet a3. The two large regions have also been taken into my pocket. These days, I will deploy the defense system as soon as possible, and when the system's defense mechanism is established, I will be able to take you back to the empire."

This is something that has long been determined. This is a battlefield after all, and there will be a steady stream of imperial soldiers parachuting over. Under Zhou Jin's command, they will use planet a3 as a springboard to prepare for the next step of annexing the Federation.This war is far from over, and with the fall of planet a3, it has already tilted towards the empire. It is impossible for Zhou Jin not to seize this opportunity.

As for Lin Chi, she doesn't need to stay here. Zhou Jin is the marshal of a country, and she is also a general who will be active on the front line and lead soldiers to fight. Many times she can't take care of Lin Chi in the rear, and because she misses Lin Chi She was distracted, so she had already made a decision to send Lin Chi back to the empire when she was a little free.

When people return to the empire and see their children, they should no longer think about running away.Moreover, when she returns to the empire, even if she runs again, under the strict air traffic control, she will never have the opportunity to come to the front line again, and it is impossible to appear in the Federation again. In this way, no matter how noisy Lin Chi is, even if she really does Fleeing from the palace, she is confident enough to find him back after returning home.

Yes, until now, Zhou Jin was very worried that Lin Chi would run away again, which was why she couldn't go to the battlefield with peace of mind.

She did not forget that Lin Chi was actually snatched from the enemy camp by her.

She did not forget that when she saw Lin Chi, Lin Chi was in estrus, and the latest news that came this morning detailed the news of Lin Chi and Lu Zirao's engagement a week ago. Knowing this, Zhou Jin even had some doubts, if she didn't show up that day, Lin Chi would be marked by Lu Zirao?

She could tolerate Lin Chi's escape, and she could be indifferent to Lin Chi's assassination, but she couldn't really let go of this matter—if Lin Chi really betrayed their feelings.

She actually doesn't believe this, especially after getting along these few days, she doesn't believe that Lin Chi will do that, but it is a fact that Lin Chi didn't use inhibitors anymore, and the news that she and Lu Zirao got engaged some time ago It is also true that these things were passed to Zhou Jin's ears, and it was easy for her to draw a conclusion: Lin Chi might have thought about giving up the connection between them and thinking about switching to the arms of others.

In the morning, when she came to this conclusion, she didn't know what emotions were surging in her heart. She really wanted to ask Lin Chi if he really wanted to be marked by another person, but the relationship between her and Lin Chi finally got better. The atmosphere did not allow her to question Lin Chi like this.She didn't even dare to let Lin Chi know that she already knew the news of Lin Chi and Lu Zirao's engagement, she was afraid that Lin Chi would ruthlessly give her an affirmative answer after piercing that layer of paper.

An answer she never wanted to see.

"Back to the empire? Isn't the front line inseparable from you? The war has not yet reached the time to relax, right?" Lin Chi was a little surprised, stopped wiping his lips and looked at Zhou Jin, only to find that Zhou Jin's body was filled with blood today. With a cold breath, although her low-pressure state is very common, it is the first time she has shown it in front of Lin Chi.

She is expressing her dissatisfaction.

Depressedly, subtly.

Ke Linchi couldn't understand.She just felt that Zhou Jin might have misunderstood her meaning. She actually wanted to go back to the empire, but of course she would be surprised when Zhou Jin proposed it.

"After the defense system is completed, the Federation will not be able to land on A3 in a short period of time. For this war, the two countries have prepared for many years and are already ready for a protracted war. Therefore, the war may last for a long time. In During the interval between wars, I can still find time to go back." Zhou Jin glanced at her very quickly, the sharpness in her eyes was like a sharp knife slashing her heart, but in the blink of an eye, Zhou Jin's eyes showed a Struggling and confused, it seemed that the glance just now was just Lin Chi's illusion.

What happened?

Lin Chi stared at Zhou Jin's eyes and looked at her, trying to find out the real emotions hidden in it. Zhou Jin like this made her feel strange, and also made her feel inexplicably distressed.

Shouldn't Zhou Jin always be proud and confident?Why did he show such fragile eyes at that moment just now?

Lin Chi's heart was tightened.

"Chi, don't you want to go back?" Zhou Jin completely put the document on the table and stopped looking through it.

"without me......"

"Do you remember our child? It will be her birthday in a month, and I will go back before that day." After Zhou Jin finished speaking, she stared at Lin Chi's dark eyes, trying to I saw some love in it, but there was none, some were just strangeness and escape.

Lin Chi was indeed running away.

Their children?That little girl who she didn't dare to look at before handing it to the maid?That her daughter who was abandoned by her at birth?What face does she have to go back to see her?

She didn't even hug her, didn't feed her a sip of milk, let alone held her hand. What right did she have to go back and see her?

Over the years, this person who had never dared to think about it was suddenly mentioned by Zhou Jin, and Lin Chi was at a loss for a while.

"Don't want to see her?" Zhou Jin closed her eyes, not sure whether it was disappointment or regret.

Speaking of which, if she hadn't been too sharp and didn't know how to retreat back then, and pushed Chi'er too tightly, how could Chi'er have fled from the palace so resolutely, and even fled to the Federation?

The culprit who drove the two mother and daughter away was not her, Zhou Jin, who else could it be?She has no right to accuse Lin Chi of indifference to her daughter, because she is the villain who caused all this.

"No! No...I just, I just don't know how to..."

"She didn't know what happened that year. She always thought you were sick and recuperating in the palace. After you go back, you don't have to explain anything to her. She will be happy for your return." Zhou Jin breathed a sigh of relief, not because she didn't want to see you It's good to hate, if Lin Chi really doesn't want to see his daughter, that's the most difficult thing to do.

"Is she... really the emperor now? She's still so young, won't there be troubles in the empire without you in charge?"

"No." Those two short words revealed a kind of absolute confidence, making people unconsciously want to believe and surrender.

Sometimes, Lin Chi felt that Zhou Jin was actually more royal than her father, but this person who was so suitable to sit in a high position and rule others gave up the throne that was at his fingertips, willingly assisting a child under the age of one, until today Nothing has changed.

Not to mention that it was because she was Zhou Jin's daughter. Since ancient times, there had been very little real affection between the royal family. For that position, father and son killed each other, and brothers closed walls everywhere. In the face of supreme power, for For some ruthless people, not to mention brothers and sisters, even parents can give up, this kind of thing is not uncommon.

Besides, Zhou Jin didn't need to hurt their daughters if she wanted to ascend to the throne, nor did she need to support such a puppet emperor to consolidate her rule. Lin Chi remembered that her prestige in the country had reached an extremely high level at that time, and her influence was also high. It has spread all over the ruling and opposition parties. After a successful coup, wanting to change the dynasty is just a matter of nodding.So, why did Zhou Jin give up?And why, since her goal is not the throne, why did she launch a coup?

Lin Chi really didn't understand.

This matter has troubled her for a long time. When she was imprisoned in the palace before, she had not yet given birth to Lin Hen, and the news of the coup was still suppressed by Zhou Jin. Busy, is in the process of preparing for enthronement.

Therefore, during those days, their quarrels often revolved around Zhou Jin's betrayal of the royal family. Lin Chi asked Zhou Jin again and again why Zhou Jin launched a coup and slaughtered the Lin clan, but Zhou Jin always kept silent. Lin Chi was allowed to guess wildly, and in the end he really thought that she was for the throne.

But a few years later, when we met in the Federation, Zhou Jin told her that the new emperor of the empire was not Zhou Jin, but their child. How could Lin Chi not be surprised?And not long after that, the news that the empire had changed to a new emperor did not reach the federation. As Zhou Jin said, the person sitting on the throne now turned out to be an immature child.

It is their child.

"When you launched the coup, I was not pregnant. I heard from the palace people that after you killed my father, you started to prepare for the enthronement. Who was the new emperor you wanted to support at that time?" The more Lin Chi thought about it, the more wrong it became. She asked Zhou Jin across the long dining table, her eyes full of doubts.

If Zhou Jin was really ready to ascend the throne at that time, then after she gave birth to hatred, Zhou Jin would at most give someone a title, and would not give the throne that is easily available to a newborn child.There is only one possibility, Zhou Jin didn't want to be the emperor, but if she doesn't become the emperor, who will do it?At that time, almost all the direct descendants of the Lin royal family died, and there was only one person left...that was Lin Chi himself.

This might be too scary, Lin Chi couldn't believe it at all.

Could it be that she was the new emperor that Zhou Jin wanted to establish?

"Chi'er, you've already thought about it, haven't you?" Zhou Jin didn't answer her, but just looked at her with peach blossom eyes, which were full of emotions she couldn't understand.

Lin Chi shook his head disturbedly: "No, how would I know if you didn't tell me? What happened back then, why did you do such a thing all of a sudden?"

She asked again, like many times in the past, without expecting Zhou Jin to answer her.
