Because of a series of accidents, Lu Zhiqing and Ye Lianrong both wisely restrained themselves a lot and no longer even bothered Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao was a blessing in disguise. Not only did he find an opportunity to punish the two of them,
After living a peaceful life for a few days, I got Yudie and Wanyue by my side as I wished.
Lu Yuanzheng saw the day of choosing his concubine approaching day by day. After the seventh prince found him again and reminded him not to forget what he had said before, Lu Yuanzheng had no choice but to find Lu Zhiyao.
Looking at Lu Zhiyao's face, which was sallow and thin due to years of malnutrition, Lu Yuanzheng sighed heavily.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Lu Zhiyao looked at the sad-looking Lu Yuanzheng, turned his eyes, walked slowly behind Lu Yuanzheng, put his hands on Lu Yuanzheng's shoulders, rubbed them gently, and then asked tentatively.
: "Are the prince and others making things difficult for you again?"
"Hey." Lu Yuanzheng nodded and whispered: "Get ready and enter the palace in two days."
"Dad, have you thought about it?" Lu Zhiyao was stunned. She didn't think it mattered about entering the palace. Even though she had expected how many people would ridicule her and how many gossips would pass into her ears, she still didn't care.
It didn't matter. But what she cared about was, what was the real reason why the prince kept holding on to her and letting her enter the palace?
"It's not up to me to decide this matter. If you reject the prince again and again and offend him, it will not be easy for dad."
So, you pushed me out as a shield, right?
Lu Zhiyao stood behind Lu Yuanzheng and smiled slightly, murmuring in his heart. When Lu Yuanzheng said that he would send two maids to serve her, Lu Zhiyao suddenly thought of Wan Yue and Yu Die.
"Dad, can I name two people?" Lu Zhiyao walked up to Lu Yuanzheng, and under Lu Yuanzheng's gaze, he slowly said: "They are Aunt Chang's two daughters, Yudie and Wanyue. They have always been
I helped Aunt Chang in the kitchen, and she had brought me food before. I had met the two of them several times, and I was relatively familiar with them compared to the others, so I thought..."
"Okay, let the two of them come over." Lu Yuanzheng nodded and stood up before Lu Zhiyao finished speaking. He said to Lu Zhiyao seriously: "Zhiyao, you must be careful when entering the palace this time.
Be cautious, understand?”
"Don't worry, Dad, my daughter will not let you down."
After Lu Yuanzheng left, Lu Zhiyao saw Yudie and Wan Yue within half an hour.
"The master said that from now on, the two of us will be by your side to serve you. Is it true or not?" Wan Yue couldn't wait to speak as soon as she saw Lu Zhiyao.
"You're here, how can it still be fake?" Lu Zhiyao sat at the table, smiled and nodded, and asked, "What else did my father say to you?"
"The master said that we should take good care of you. If something goes wrong, we won't be spared." Yudie replied calmly to Lu Zhiyao on the surface, but regarding the events of the past few days, Yudie always felt an inexplicable fear in her heart. It continued.
The situation for so many years has undergone such a big change in just a few days. Arranging a maid for the eldest lady? This was absolutely impossible before. But now...
"That's good." Lu Zhiyao was in a good mood. He walked to the yard and pointed to the two rooms not far away. Lu Zhiyao turned back and said to the two of them: "Take care of the house and live here from now on."
.Although it is simple, it is still habitable. I will take you to a better place later."
Every line of Lu Zhiyao's words revealed her confidence. Later, Lu Yuanzheng sent people to deliver various daily necessities and several pieces of fine fabrics, which seemed to tell everyone in the house that Lu Yuanzheng
Zhiyao will no longer live the same life as before.
All the changes were taken for granted in Lu Zhiyao's eyes. But in the eyes of those who usually disliked her, it was a different story.
Lu Zhiqing has been ill these days, and because of Ye Lianrong's involvement, she was scolded by Lu Yuanzheng in the morning. Therefore, when she heard Ye Lianrong say that Lu Zhiyao was going to replace her in the palace to choose the crown prince, and Lu Zhiqing was
When Yuanzheng had arranged for Lu Zhiyao to be served by a maid, Lu Zhiqing had suppressed her anger for a few days and suddenly became angry.
Lu Zhiqing slammed the teacup in her hand to the ground. She slapped the table and stood up, scolding with disdain: "She entered the palace? Why did she enter the palace? What kind of virtue can she show by not peeing in the palace? Want to replace me? She will never do it in the next life."
think!"
"Okay, what are you shouting about? If your father finds out, he will inevitably scold you again." Ye Lianrong was naturally not in a better mood after Lu Zhiqing made such a fuss. She had never been happy about losing those thousands of taels of silver.
Lu Zhiyao turned over when she was beaten by Lu Yuanzheng. She wanted to yell and cause a scene more than anyone else.
"Just scold me! Even if I am scolded, I can still get this bad breath. Mom, look at how proud Lu Zhiyao is now, as if she has really become the princess." Lu Zhiqing became more and more angry as he spoke, and finally she simply
Let Yuechan go find out if Lu Yuanzheng was at the house. After Yuechan came back and brought back the news that Lu Yuanzheng had left long ago, Lu Zhiqing walked towards Lu Zhiyao's residence without saying a word.
When Lu Zhiqing came, Lu Zhiyao was sitting in the yard, chatting with Wan Yue and Yu Die. From a distance, she saw the menacing Lu Zhiqing. Lu Zhiyao was stunned and looked at Wan Yue.
, ordered in a low voice: "Go and call my father quickly. No matter what method you use, you must bring him here. Do you understand?!"
Wan Yue followed Lu Zhiyao's gaze and looked over, nodded smartly, stood up and ran away so fast that Lu Zhiqing didn't even want to stop her.
Lu Zhiqing and Wan Yue passed each other and strode up to Lu Zhiyao. Under Lu Zhiyao's gaze, Lu Zhiqing kicked open Lu Zhiyao's door and glanced at some of the extra things in the room.
Then he said sarcastically: "I thought it was some great thing, but it turned out that the slaves had replaced it and sent it to you. Yuechan, look at how many things you don't like to use in this room."
"Thrown away?"
Yuechan listened to Lu Zhiqing's words, pursed her lips and smiled, and replied: "Miss, there are many. What the lady is giving to this slave now is countless times better than these."
"That's natural. You are mine. Don't lower your status and compare yourself to some shameless cowards. Do you understand?"
Lu Zhiqing insulted Lu Zhiyao every word. Lu Zhiyao heard it, but had no reaction. He just sat there and let Lu Zhiqing run wild.
"Why, are you waiting for my father to come and support you? Don't think about it, I tell you, my father is not here now." Lu Zhiqing walked up to Lu Zhiyao, looked at her, and said through gritted teeth: "Today, no one will
can not help you."
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lu Zhiqing's face close at hand and frowned. He raised his hand and pushed Lu Zhiqing back. Lu Zhiyao then patted his chest and said, "Sister, stay away from me. This face doesn't appeal to me."
Watching it, I’m afraid I’ll have nightmares at night.”
"you……"
"Why did you run out so boldly before you recovered from your illness? Doesn't it mean that my sister doesn't want my face?" Lu Zhiyao saw that Lu Zhiqing would not give up until she made a scene today, so she made it clear.
His own attitude. "I originally wanted to persuade dad to find a good doctor to treat you and let you enter the palace to choose the crown princess, but now it seems that this is not necessary."
"Bah!" Lu Zhiqing looked at Lu Zhiyao's face and wanted to spit, but Lu Zhiyao dodged it. "Don't be hypocritical. I'm telling you Lu Zhiyao, others don't know, don't I still?
Do you know what you are thinking? You wish I could never get better! You must have stolen my mother’s money! You shameless thing, you still have the nerve to live, see if I don’t deal with you today!”
After Lu Zhiqing finished speaking, he began to roll up his sleeves, as if he wanted to fight Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lu Zhiqing and Yuechan behind her with a headache, wondering in his heart whether he should take action or not. Wan Yue had been running away for a while, and she hadn't come back yet. Was she looking for Lu Yuanzheng? Or what?
Gone? Even if she had a fight with Lu Zhiqing, things would not be easy to handle. She finally got Yudie to come to her side. On the first day, someone came to her door to make trouble. She couldn't lose her momentum and make this slave think that she was her master.
It's useless. But if Lu Zhiqing is beaten, there's no guarantee that something will happen again. If I get beaten, no one will see it. Even if I complain to others about my grievances afterwards, no one will believe it.
In the end, what should she do?
Lu Zhiyao thought about it secretly, and finally decided to delay it for a while and put all his hopes on Wan Yue. With a turn of his body, Lu Zhiyao dodged Lu Zhiqing's slap and stepped back.
Zhiyao looked at Lu Zhiqing's eyes flashing with anger, lightly opened her red lips, and said, "It's not good for your health if your sister is so angry."
"You don't have to worry!"
"Sister, let me ask you something. As long as you tell me the truth, I will let you beat me. How about it?" Lu Zhiyao took Lu Zhiqing's hand and pulled Lu Zhiqing's body towards him, lying on Lu Zhiqing's side.
He asked quietly and quickly in his ear: "I just want to ask you, was it your mother who killed my mother?"
Lu Zhiyao once again brought this matter up in the open, which made Lu Zhiqing tremble when he heard it. Then he remembered the night when he and Ye Lianrong mentioned this matter, the person outside the window, Lu Zhiqing stared at Lu Zhiyao with red eyes,
He didn't admit it. "You are so slanderous, so be careful of my mother dealing with you!"
"After all these years, has there ever been a day when I wasn't taken care of by you mother and daughter?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Lu Zhiyao's mouth, seeing Lu Zhiqing's gritted teeth, Lu Zhiyao continued: "My mother's death,
You know in your mind whether my brother's death has anything to do with you. Sister, I still call you sister today just for my father's sake. After today, think about how much sewage you have poured on me.
, think about how many bad things you have said about me behind my back. Aren’t you afraid that one day I will really fly up a branch and become a phoenix and pay you back all these grudges?”
"Stop having sweet dreams! The prince can't possibly fall in love with you!" Lu Zhiqing sneered, feeling that Lu Zhiyao was completely out of his mind.
"Really? Is it impossible?" Lu Zhiyao smiled meaningfully and said leisurely: "Then let's wait and see."
