After getting ready, Lu Zhiyao followed Lin Yinan out of the city. Sitting in the carriage, looking at Lin Yinan's calm eyes, Lu Zhiyao didn't think this trip would be easy. And there was one thing she couldn't understand. Lin Yinan's
When he left this time, he must be going to do some things for the emperor. The Nangong family and the prince had different intentions, and the emperor would not notice it or remain indifferent. But why did the emperor agree to Lin Yinan taking him with him? Also, if
If the emperor really deposes the prince, and he doesn't like Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang, then which prince will the throne be passed to?
"What do you want to ask?"
Lin Yinan had been stared at by Lu Zhiyao for a while. He opened the curtain and looked at the scenery outside. After Lin Yinan was sure that he had left the capital, the lines on his face softened slightly.
"How did you tell the emperor that he agreed to take me away with you?" Lu Zhiyao tilted his head to look at him and asked in a low voice.
"He didn't say he agreed, but he didn't say he disagreed either." Lin Yinan leaned forward slightly and got closer to Lu Zhiyao. The two looked at each other at close range. Lin Yinan looked at the haze flashing in Lu Zhiyao's eyes and asked with a smile.
Said: "When we come back this time, can we bring one more person with us?"
Lu Zhiyao didn't understand the meaning of his words at first, but when Lin Yinan's hand brushed her abdomen with deep meaning, she couldn't understand it even if she couldn't understand it.
"You're making fun of me again." Lu Zhiyao frowned and knocked off Lin Yinan's hand. It was not certain whether they could go back safely this time, but he still had other things to think about.
"A joke?" Lin Yinan raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, but did not continue the topic with her. Instead, he relaxed his muscles lazily, and then asked Lu Zhiyao, "Do you want to go out riding and get some fresh air?"
"Forget it." Lu Zhiyao shook his head hesitantly. They were always followed by the emperor's people. She didn't want to show so much in front of outsiders. It would be of no benefit to herself or him.
Lin Yinan saw her worry, pointed his index finger between her eyebrows, and sighed: "There are always so many things on my mind."
Lin Yinan stopped the groom and went out alone. The space in the carriage suddenly became much larger. Lu Zhiyao sat where he had just been sitting, and his unique scent seemed to be still in the air.
Lu Zhiyao leaned her head lightly on the carriage, and slowly touched the short knife at her waist. She had just left the capital, and she already had a vague feeling of uneasiness. The mountains were high and the emperor was far away, even if the two of them were outside.
What happened will be hard to explain when we return to Beijing, right?
In the palace, after meeting Nangong Liu Xi, Nangong Nuoer went straight to the racecourse. From a distance, he saw the prince standing there. Nangong Nuoer strode forward, met Lin Yichen's eyes, and asked with a smile: "Prince
Do you seem in a good mood today?"
"You've just arrived, but you can tell that I'm in a good mood."
"Oh? So you're in a bad mood?" Nangong Nuoer looked at the horse behind Lin Yichen with a look of affection in his eyes.
"That won't work. You go to the horse pen and pick one yourself." Lin Yichen saw Nangong Nuoer's idea at a glance, interrupted her thoughts, and looked at her back with a cold snort as she ran to hold the horse. Lin Yichen smiled bitterly and jumped.
They got on the horse. After waiting for Nangong Nuo'er to come back, the two of them rode forward slowly.
"Why did you think of marrying Lao Qi?" Lin Yichen turned to look at Nangong Nuo'er and asked after staying away from the crowd.
"I have always wanted to marry him." Nangong Nuo'er replied calmly: "Otherwise, if you look at the entire palace, who else is better than him? I, Nangong Nuo'er, want to marry, so
Marry the best man, but it’s a pity that you can’t, otherwise I would marry you too.”
"Thankfully, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bear your aunt's temper." Lin Yichen gave a lucky smile, which made Nangong Nuoer roll his eyes. "Tell me, why did you come to me?"
"Let me ask you, are you familiar with Lu Zhiyao?" Nangong Nuoer didn't delay and asked directly.
"Lu Zhiyao?" Lin Yichen thought for a while and frowned in confusion. "Isn't it the one from the prime minister's family? Why is he so good? He remembered her."
"I always feel that this woman is unusual. I asked around but I didn't hear anything useful. How did she and Lin Yinan hook up?"
Nangong Nuo'er's words were not pleasant to hear. Lin Yichen thought about what she said. It seemed that the two people could "hook up" together by themselves. If Lu Zhiyao hadn't entered the palace that time, his
After this suggestion, maybe these two people would not be able to make it today.
"What an unusual method. Let me tell you."
"Maybe it's my misunderstanding. I just feel that this woman is not as easy to deal with as you think. She doesn't have the slightest fear of me, the daughter of the Nangong family. The way she talks to me
, but it seems a bit familiar.”
"Are you thinking of Xia Yao?" Lin Yichen chuckled and looked at Nangong Nuo'er, "You haven't been away from the capital for too long, so you look like the woman who once competed with you, right?
"
"Don't tell me, it's really similar!" Nangong Nuo'er heard what Lin Yichen said, and suddenly remembered when that feeling of déjà vu had appeared. Her eyes flashed, and she lowered her voice and asked Lin Yichen, "Xia
Is Yao really dead?"
"He is dead. I sent someone to bury the body. There is no mistake. This Lu Zhiyao is now the eighth imperial concubine. Although my father has not given me any title, I will be a prince in the future. You and
She is also a princess, and now she has Prince Mu supporting her behind her. It is understandable that she is not afraid of you. However, it is better not to despise the people around Lin Yinan. This time, the father has granted the title of Lao Qi.
, but left Lao Ba behind, we all know who we are showing this to."
"Hasn't the Emperor mentioned the matter of the Crown Prince? Is it possible that he still wants to use Lin Yinan to contain you for a few more years?"
The prince should have been the crown prince, but when the emperor established the prince, he also made it clear to the ministers that his throne was not necessarily to be passed on to the prince. That's why the queen and the prince's hearts have been uneasy over the years.
After coming down, rumors that Lin Yinan would inherit the throne would come out from time to time.
"If that's the case, why don't we strike first and kill him?" Nangong Nuoer said to Lin Yichen with a murderous look in his eyes.
"He? Who do you want to talk about?" Lin Yichen looked at the always bold Nangong Nuo'er with a solemn expression and asked slowly.
"Brother Prince, who do you think I am talking about?" Nangong Nuoer smiled brightly and asked Lin Yichen. "Do you know why Lin Yinan left Beijing this time?"
"I don't know, but I heard that he still used the old excuse, saying that he was feeling unwell and wanted to go out to recuperate. But no one knows about his condition. His mother said that he was poisoned when he was a child. What is he like now?
No one can say for sure whether it's good or not. If the rumors are true, then it would be very interesting for my father to use his sick man to contain us. If the rumors are untrue, then..."
"Whether it's true or not, he is the biggest obstacle in front of you now. My father is coming back soon, don't you plan to settle it this time? Lin Yinan takes Lu Zhiyao away, this is a great opportunity.
Even if he died outside, we can still say that his illness broke out, right? Where he went, there were not so many doctors."
Lin Yichen stared at Nangong Nuo'er for a moment, and then smiled silently. "The queen is right, it's a pity that you are not a man. I have already sent people to follow Lin Yinan. As for whether to take action, we have to wait and see. But
Remember, don’t let Lin Yixiang know about this."
"I understand." Nangong Nuoer frowned, but still agreed: "No matter what, we are brothers after all. By the way, I have something else to ask you, what's going on with that Lu Zhiqing's face?
No matter how bad Lin Yixiang is, he won't fall in love with her like that, right?"
"I heard that she was scratched by an assassin. She was supposed to be my concubine, and it was miserable to end up in this situation. I wanted to let Lao Qi treat her well for the sake of the Ye family and the Lu family, but who knew that Ye
The family is not doing things well, which is so disappointing. I wanted to do anything to Lu Zhiyao, but I was dealt with by Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan. There are both witnesses and physical evidence, so there is really no way."
"Let me tell you, that Lu Zhiyao is definitely not an easy person to deal with. Since you don't want Lu Zhiqing, and the Ye family has no use value now, then I will deal with her, do you have any objections?"
Lin Yichen knew very well Nangong Nuoer's nature. What she wanted was absolutely unacceptable to anyone else, including men. Lin Yichen also knew a little bit about what happened between her and Xia Yao back then. He just didn't dare to tell the truth.
Tell her that he was afraid that she would accidentally reveal it when she was arguing with Xia Yao. Furthermore, Lin Yichen could also see that Lin Yixiang also had some feelings for Xia Yao at that time. But he still knew what he wanted.
What is it, so that beauty has to be given up. Compared with Xia Yao, this Lu Zhiqing is so different. Not only her face, but also her brain. When Nuoer marries to Prince Luo's Mansion, I'm afraid there won't be one.
If that happens, Lu Zhiqing will be tortured to death.
"Just keep it hidden, and the rest doesn't matter."
Lin Yichen agreed, and Nangong Nuoer became even less worried. After riding unscrupulously on the racecourse with Lin Yichen for half an hour, Nangong Nuoer came to Lin Yixiang dripping with sweat and said, "I'm hungry, come with me to eat out of the palace."
Get some stuff."
Lin Yixiang was sitting by the window reading a book. He glanced up at Nangong Nuo'er and replied, "Can't the palace cook still feed your belly?"
"Oh, I just want to go out with you. Why do you talk so much nonsense? Come with me!" Nangong Nuoer curled her lips in dissatisfaction and pulled Lin Yixiang up without saying a word. "I think you should move earlier.
Go to the palace, I have to go into the palace every time I look for you, it will be very troublesome."
