After Ye Lianrong secretly contacted Ye Zhihua, she decided to insist that no matter what, they had never said or done anything. If there was no other way in the end, then she would simply find Su Changfei and tell Lu Lu in front of the prince.
Zhiyao is indeed pregnant.
But they failed to calculate it despite all their calculations. Even if they didn't want to do this, they still couldn't escape Lu Zhiyao's plan.
Lu Zhiyao finally got through the day. When it got dark, she left the Prime Minister's Mansion with a complicated mood and ran towards the palace.
This was the first time she had done such a risky thing. Thinking about the last time she followed her father into the palace, it was a long time ago. Lin Yixiang also took her to his palace at that time, but she didn't know if she could still do it now.
You can find it. As for the day of the wedding, Lu Zhiyao was brought here completely with his face covered. She didn't want to remember what happened that day.
Lu Zhiyao had already made all bad plans while walking alone. He gritted his teeth and sneaked into the palace. Lu Zhiyao leaned in a deserted corner and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
If she is not careful, she may be regarded as an assassin who wants to assassinate the emperor. Such a crime is not something she can bear now.
Fortunately, the night was getting dark, and Lu Zhiyao was not just a three-legged cat. After wandering around, she finally found Lin Yixiang's palace. Everything here seemed to be the same as in her memory, without any changes.
.But, it seems that everything has changed. This place once belonged to her, but on the day Lin Yixiang threw her from here to the dungeon, it had nothing to do with her at all.
Lu Zhiyao wore a mask on his face and stared sharply at Lin Yixiang's room. When he saw Lin Yixiang coming out of the room and leaving with a man who looked familiar to her, Lu Zhiyao couldn't help but chuckle.
Lu Zhiyao wasted some time and found Lu Zhiqing's room. After glancing around every corner of the yard, Lu Zhiyao walked lightly to the front of the room and listened carefully for any sounds in the room.
It was already late now, and if nothing else happened, Lu Zhiqing was already lying down. Lu Zhiyao was very cautious. After using the incense, she entered Lu Zhiqing's room and left the things she brought.
here.
Not daring to delay for a moment, Lu Zhiyao hurriedly headed out of the palace. Unfortunately, things didn't work out as she wanted, and she bumped into Lin Yixiang halfway.
Lin Yixiang and his entourage looked at Lu Zhiyao, who was wearing night clothes. The two of them stopped for a moment, then moved forward together to attack Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao knew that he must not be reluctant to fight at this time, in case something happened.
Recruiting a group of imperial guards would really make it impossible for her to escape.
The short and powerful dagger in his hand, with murderous intent and coolness, shining silver-white light, swung it towards Lin Yixiang without hesitation. Before this, Lu Zhiyao had never really fought against Lin Yixiang.
Lin Yixiang frowned and looked at the lone assassin, observing the surroundings from time to time, trying to find his accomplices. The faint fragrance of the man in black wafted into Lin Yixiang's nose as he approached, making Lin Yixiang involuntarily startled.
He looked at the man's eyes full of hatred, and for some reason, a person's name suddenly came to his mind.
"Xia Yao?!"
Lin Yixiang spoke softly with a bit of disbelief, and when Lu Zhiyao heard these two words he said, he felt the blood in his body began to boil, and the urge to kill Lin Yixiang became more and more obvious.
In the crisis, Lu Zhiyao's movements became faster and faster. Lin Yixiang watched her every move, and his mind was confused. He took the initiative to step aside, and Lin Yixiang watched in silence as Lu Zhiyao fought with the remaining minions.
When Lu Zhiyao saw that Lin Yixiang had stopped, she snorted coldly and immediately decided to run away. The man who was chasing after him made Lu Zhiyao a little impatient. The sharp blade passed by like running water, and the black clothing was blown by the wind.
Lu Zhiyao quickly turned sideways, stepped on the wall, and reached behind the man. A strand of the man's long hair fell freely between Lu Zhiyao's waving hands.
Lu Zhiyao sneered, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and pointed the dagger between his neck with some addiction.
From the beginning of the fight with the two to the end, the skill and speed that Lu Zhiyao displayed in a short period of time increased in a straight line, making it so fast that people could not catch up with her pace of change. Therefore,
When Lin Yixiang saw his men almost having their throats slit by her, he whispered and said, "Stop chasing her."
Lin Yixiang looked at Lu Zhiyao's back with confused eyes, constantly guessing her identity in his mind.
That figure and that scent always gave Lin Yixiang a feeling of déjà vu. But Xia Yao was already dead, and the body was seen with his own eyes, so who could this person be? That Lu Zhi who had the same aura as Xia Yao
Yao? That's even more impossible! Such good kung fu can't be practiced in one or two days. Besides, if it was Lu Zhiyao, what was her purpose of sneaking into the palace in the middle of the night?
"Master, why don't you pursue me?"
Lin Yixiang glanced at the servant who asked the stupid question, turned around and strode away. "Looking at her speed, how can you and the guards in the palace catch up with her?"
Lin Yixiang returned to the palace, first checked whether anything in his room was missing, and then after thinking for a while, he came to Lu Zhiqing's room.
Gently pushing the door open, Lin Yixiang walked into the room under the moonlight. He looked at Lu Zhiqing who was sleeping soundly on the bed and wanted to leave. When passing the table in the middle of the room, Lin Yixiang looked at the pen and ink on the table and paused in confusion.
Stepped down.
Is Lu Zhiqing the kind of person who writes and draws when he has nothing to do? At least in the long time he has been in contact with her, she has never seen her lift a pen.
Lin Yixiang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he looked through the things on the table. After finding nothing of value, he lit the candle and returned to the bed.
He patted Lu Zhiqing's body gently, but the result was that Lu Zhiqing turned over and continued to sleep soundly. Lin Yixiang sighed helplessly and wanted to wake Lu Zhiqing up. But inadvertently, he saw a corner under her pillow.
.Pressing a letter.
Lin Yixiang pulled out the letter with a gloomy look, and after much hesitation, he read the contents of the letter.
Word by word, it flashed into Lin Yixiang's eyes. This letter was like a strong wind, igniting the anger in Lin Yixiang's heart.
Lin Yixiang strode to the bed and pulled up Lu Zhiqing, who was still sleeping, without mercy. His hair was pulled in his hand, and the violent shaking and pain woke Lu Zhiqing up. She looked at Lin Yixiang with an angry face.
, before she could ask him what was wrong, she received a firm slap from him.
Lu Zhiqing's cheek hurt from being beaten, but her mind was still blank. She didn't know what she had done wrong.
"Lu Zhiqing, I never imagined that you and your mother would dare to do such a vicious thing! If I had known you were such a wicked woman, I would never have married you!"
Hearing Lin Yixiang's few words, Lu Zhiqing became anxious. When he saw Lin Yixiang throwing the letter in front of him and making sarcastic remarks, Lu Zhiqing raised his hand and picked up the letter. After reading a few lines, he felt like a bolt from the blue.
"This, this wasn't written by me!" Lu Zhiqing shook his head in panic, but could not extinguish Lin Yixiang's anger.
"Didn't you write it? Are you sure that it's not your handwriting on it?"
"This..." Lu Zhiqing was troubled and couldn't express herself. She looked at each word in the letter and could only explain to Lin Yixiang over and over again that she had been wronged.
Lin Yixiang listened to Lu Zhiqing's words and pulled her out of bed. Lu Zhiqing walked to the table with bare feet and heard Lin Yixiang ask her to write again according to the content of the letter to see if she had been wronged.
When that happened, Lu Zhiqing couldn't help crying.
"Seventh Prince, I really didn't write this letter, and I don't know anything about Lu Zhiyao. Someone must be setting me up secretly, you have to believe me!"
Lu Zhiqing's crying was more like a death struggle in Lin Yixiang's eyes at this moment. He originally thought that this woman was stupid enough to stay by his side, even if she didn't look good, but she wouldn't cause any trouble. But he didn't
Thinking that such an ugly woman who was not a problem in his eyes could cause him so much trouble!
Lin Yixiang was too lazy to listen to Lu Zhiqing say another word. He hurriedly walked out of her room and said to the servant waiting in the yard: "Keep an eye on her. She is not allowed to leave this room without my permission!"
Lin Yixiang, furious, made his servant nod knowingly, and dutifully stopped Lu Zhiqing, who wanted to rush out of the room to chase him. Lin Yixiang took the letter and returned to the study. The more he read, the angrier he became, but he did not suspect that this letter would be the same as what he had just seen.
What does the man in black have to do with it?
In addition to the emperor and the empresses of each palace, there are also princes like them who live in the palace. And just name a person with a little strength, there may be close followers like the man in black just now. Although that
People are indeed suspicious, but Lin Yixiang doesn't think that someone like Lu Zhiqing will have anything to do with the man in black.
As for what happened tonight, Lu Zhiyao did not expect that things would go so smoothly. bumping into Lin Yixiang and making a move was a small episode, but at least she escaped unscathed.
But the letter she sent to the palace, she originally wanted to show it to Lu Zhiqing. Even though the letter was written to Ye Lianrong in the name of Lu Zhiqing, Lu Zhiyao did not expect it to be delivered so soon.
Lin Yixiang knew about this.
Lu Zhiyao originally thought that if Lu Zhiqing saw the letter, he would panic and try his best to see Ye Lianrong. And when she returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she would have to get Lin Yixiang's consent. Lu Zhiqing couldn't hold it in her heart.
A secretive person, once she behaves inappropriately, she will never escape Lin Yixiang's eyes. At that time, Lin Yixiang's investigation plus some other small actions he made will not be so difficult to involve the Ye family.
