"Okay, then I'll listen to you. Let's talk it over if we have anything to say." Lin Yinan suddenly nodded and unexpectedly let go of his hand, letting Lu Zhiyao be free.
Lu Zhiyao looked at him warily and doubtfully, not thinking that he would really let her go like this. Sure enough, just after she sat up straight, she saw Lin Yinan stretched out his finger, pointed at the corner of the bed, and said to her
Said: "Go over there and sit."
After getting into this bed, is it possible to escape from his grasp? Lu Zhiyao secretly asked himself in his heart, the answer is obvious, so Lu Zhiyao does not intend to be fooled. "The room is a little stuffy, why don't we
Go outside to enjoy some fresh air and talk while walking?"
Lin Yinan walked around the house several times before coming back. If someone else said such words to him at this time, he would definitely treat her with a cold eye. But since Lu Zhiyao wanted to go out, he would comply with her wish.
Lin Yinan nodded politely and followed Lu Zhiyao out. Walking two steps behind her, Lin Yinan stared deeply at Lu Zhiyao's back in the vast night, with an unfathomable expression on his face.
When Lu Zhiyao turned her head, she saw Lin Yinan looking at her with burning eyes. Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she remembered the problem that had been bothering her for some time.
"Why did you choose me?" Lu Zhiyao did not hide what he was thinking and asked directly. Lu Zhiyao knew that these young princes and ministers were resistant to the word "marriage". Because "marriage" is the word "marriage".
Getting married often means joining forces with another family. It is not uncommon for some people to marry three wives and four concubines one after another for their own status. People like Lin Yinan take the initiative to ask the emperor for marriage.
, is rare. Not everyone can do it by insisting on marrying a woman who is burdened with hatred. Those words of love are more like a joke in Lu Zhiyao's eyes. In the face of fame and fortune, life and death
, how many people in this world can give up everything, including the head on their neck, for the so-called love?
Lin Yinan did not answer Lu Zhiyao's question immediately. The two of them walked forward slowly, and before they knew it, they came to the other courtyard where Lin Yinan lived before.
Lu Zhiyao looked at the somewhat familiar courtyard and walked in. Gently opening the door, Lu Zhiyao looked at the empty room and asked in confusion: "Why don't you live here anymore?"
Lin Yinan smiled and said nothing, walked into the room first, lit the red candle on the table, and sat down with his clothes on.
"I chose you because I think you are suitable." Lin Yinan spoke slowly and began to answer the questions Lu Zhiyao had asked before. "Because I don't know how long I can live, so there are some things I always want to do in my lifetime.
. Even if I don’t marry a wife this year or next year, the emperor will definitely throw a woman next to me the year after tomorrow. Compared with those lifeless ladies from famous families, it is more interesting to keep you by my side, isn’t it?
Since I have chosen you, I will marry you as soon as possible so that you will not have to wait at the door of the flower-filled building to catch me."
Lin Yinan brought up the past, which made Lu Zhiyao lower his head uncomfortably.
It's not because of use or love, but because they think they are suitable, so should they be together? Lu Zhiyao has never thought about whether he and Lin Yixiang are suitable for each other before, but now, she and Lin Yinan are really as suitable as he said.
?
"I will bring you a lot of trouble." Lu Zhiyao raised his eyes and looked at Lin Yinan steadily, and said in a frivolous tone: "So, if you feel annoyed, just divorce me."
"Zhiyao. There is something I hope you can understand." Lin Yinan frowned slightly under the dim candlelight. He did not expect that this girl would even think about such a thing. "I never wanted you to leave.
There will be no such thoughts in the future.”
Lu Zhiyao's breathing became slow and cautious, and there was a string in his heart because Lin Yinan's words were about to break. She had only been in contact with the man in front of him for just a few months. But he said that if they were suitable, he wouldn't.
The idea of letting her leave his side. So can she understand that as long as she avenges her blood, she will really no longer have to worry and be confused about where is her home and who is her relative?
There are few adults in the Eight Emperors Mansion. Although Lin Yinan is followed by Ling Yi and others, since Lu Zhiyao moved in, it is rare to see Ling Yi following Lin Yinan step by step. It is a quiet night, and the summer wind blows slowly.
.The insects in the grass were chirping happily, as if they wanted to break the silence between Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan.
"There is one more thing I should tell you." Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao silently for a while, and then said leisurely: "I help you not because I want you to be grateful to me. Even without you, the Ye family will be eliminated.
The prince will also be deposed. So now, it’s not me helping you, but you helping me.”
Lu Zhiyao was still drowsily thinking about her and Lin Yinan's affairs. After hearing what Lin Yinan said, his eyes immediately lit up and he asked tensely: "Why? You really want to be the emperor, right?
"
Lin Yinan slowly shook his head and once again denied Lu Zhiyao's speculation. "Do you know why General Xia was unjustly accused of treason before he died? There is no smoke without fire. Have you ever thought about whose mouth these words came from?
Why would it be spread like this?"
"There is no wind without fire, and a slap can't make a sound. I understand all these principles. But I don't believe that my father would do such a thing, so I can only regard those words as deliberately fabricated by a villain with ulterior motives who only want to harm my Xia family."
, kill my father and my eldest brother."
"What about the Emperor? Do you really think that the person sitting on the dragon chair is just a decoration?" Lin Yinan chuckled, laughing at Lu Zhiyao's current innocence, laughing at her for being too contemptuous of the relationship with Lin Yichen.
This battle. "Girl, General Xia has really seen people from the enemy country, otherwise he would not be caught. In Xia Lai Country, there is someone who wants to collaborate with the enemy and treason, but that person is not Xia Zhenkun.
But someone else is here. General Xia was silenced because he knew too much. If you knew this, would you still want to take revenge?"
"How could I not avenge the sea of blood?" Lu Zhiyao clenched his fists and said firmly to Lin Yinan: "I have long expected that there is something fishy about Xuncheng. After all, I have also walked through the gate of hell once.
, even if I really die again, I am not afraid. As long as I can get revenge, I don’t care who the person I have to deal with, or whether there is support from the Nangong family behind him. If I want to kill him, I will kill him and pay for it.
I won’t hesitate to take this life.”
"Then have you ever thought about me?" Lin Yinan tilted his head and looked at Lu Zhiyao expressionlessly. "Have you ever thought about who I should look for if you die together with the Nangong family?
Do you want revenge?"
Lu Zhiyao's chest suddenly felt suffocating and painful because of Lin Yinan's words. What would he look like if she died? Would he avenge himself, would he miss everything he had done by his side?
The question was so heavy that Lu Zhiyao thought about it for a moment and then couldn't think about it any more.
"If General Xia knew better, he would not want you to risk all your life on avenging him. And I will never let you do that. You must remember that when dealing with people like the Nangong family,
A powerful enemy must not be impatient. If you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood. If you want to kill the enemy with your own hands, you must first pass your own level."
Lin Yinan also heard from between the lines of Lu Zhiyao's words that she had already expected that the Xia family's affairs were related to the prince Lin Yichen.
"The Kingdom of Xia Lai is neither big nor small. Since the change of dynasties, many people have been vying to be the king of this dynasty. Lin Yichen has been the prince for so many years, and he has been ready to make a move.
They are satisfied with the status quo. The Nangong family is also dissatisfied with the current emperor. When the Xia family was there, there were still people to contain them, but the Xia family is gone now, so the emperor must choose someone to replace the Xia family.
Put the military power in his hands to fight against the Nangong family."
"Why do you know so much?" Lu Zhiyao gradually felt that something was not right, "So the person you are talking about refers to yourself?"
"Leading troops to fight makes me feel headache just thinking about it. But don't forget, although General Xia died, he left behind the lieutenant general he brought out with his own hands."
"You mean...Brother Bai?!" Lu Zhiyao opened his eyes wide and asked in shock.
"That's right, it's Bai Lixuan. Compared with Liu Xisheng and Qing Ling, he is much more stable. Although he is not as good as General Ruo Xia and Xia Tian, he is still enough to withstand one side." Lin Yinan smiled and nodded, "
As long as we rehabilitate the Xia family, the three of them will have another day to fight on the battlefield."
Lu Zhiyao heard the hidden meaning in Lin Yinan's words, "So all you did was to vindicate the Xia family?"
"Then guess again, why did I do this?" Lin Yinan did not answer the question, stood up and walked to Lu Zhiyao, looked at her condescendingly and asked.
Lu Zhiyao swallowed slightly nervously and thought about it seriously, "There are not many people who dare to go against the Nangong family. Not only is the eighth prince not afraid of the Nangong family, he is not afraid of Prince Mu. Could it be that..." Lu Zhiyao admired
He looked at Lin Yinan, testing him uneasily, "Could it be that the emperor has secretly decided to pass the throne to you, so you are so unscrupulous?"
"You are smart enough to think of the emperor." Lin Yinan chuckled, pointed his finger at Lu Zhiyao's forehead, then took her wrist and pulled her up. "You have so many questions, if I tell them all
You have to give something back, right?"
Lin Yinan slowly lowered himself down, turning Lu Zhiyao's shrewd head just like paste. "Does the Eighth Prince want me to commit myself to him?"
