"Nuo'er, don't be ridiculous." Nangong Lingfeng glanced at Nangong Nuo'er and stopped her from talking. Turning to look at Lin Yixiang, Nangong Lingfeng thought for a while and said: "According to what you said, then this Lu Zhiyao
It has been some time since we returned to the capital. We still don’t know if the Eighth Prince has come back. If he has come back, then the Emperor cannot possibly not know about it. In other words, their return may be the Emperor’s intention.”
"Dad, I don't understand. What's the use of the emperor calling them back at this time?" Nangong Nuo'er was extremely tired. She sat here with the two of them with energy and asked angrily.
"Even Lu Zhiyao has such good skills, who can be sure that the eighth prince doesn't know any martial arts." When Nangong Lingfeng said this, his eyes swept over Lin Yixiang's face. "
Now that things have come to a point, we have to be more careful. Go tell the prince that the plan is cancelled."
"Dad, we have been preparing for so long, do we really have to give up? Is there any other way to find it?" Nangong Nuoer looked at Nangong Lingfeng unwillingly, "If you wait for this kind of opportunity next time, you don't have to do it.
How long will it take? And how should we explain it to Qingming Kingdom?"
"I will find a way in Qingming Kingdom. During this period, all you have to do is check Lu Zhiyao's affairs for me." Nangong Lingfeng's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly burst out with a fierce cold light, "If you are sure that Lin Yinan has not come back, then secretly
He killed her. Anyway, not many people knew about her return."
"Okay, I'll do it!" Nangong Nuo'er sneered and agreed with Nangong Lingfeng's suggestion. She stood up and said in a brisk tone: "I'm going to sleep for two hours first, dad. I'll find you later."
After Nangong Nuo'er left, Nangong Lingfeng looked at Lin Yixiang, who had not yet left, and said, "I hope you can accompany Nuo'er about Lu Zhiyao. She is no match for Lu Zhiyao on her own."
"I understand. It just so happens that I don't understand some things, so I will investigate this Lu Zhiyao carefully."
Lin Yixiang nodded and fell into deep thought. Thinking about what he and Lu Zhiyao had said several times before. Why would Lu Zhiyao know about Xia Yao? Lao Ba would marry her.
Sure enough, it's not without reason.
Nangong Lingfeng sent people to search every house in the capital. Naturally, Lu Zhiyao, Xia Han and others could no longer live there. Just when they were hesitant and didn't know where to move, Lin Mubai reached out to them.
A helping hand was given.
Standing in Prince Mu's palace, Lu Zhiyao was filled with annoyance. If she had known that she would receive so many favors from Lin Mubai in the future, she would have been respectful to him at the beginning and would never have let herself be so embarrassed now.
"No matter how courageous General Nangong is, he would not dare to search here." Yin Jianli looked at the frightened expressions of Xia Han and others, then looked at Lu Zhiyao, and said: "Your Majesty asked me to take you to search later.
He, he said you can't live here."
"Okay." Lu Zhiyao nodded slowly, waited for Yin Jianli to arrange Xia Han and Bai Lixuan, and followed Bai Lixuan out of Prince Mu's Mansion.
"Where are we going? Beauty Pavilion?" Lu Zhiyao asked speculatively.
"Yes, the prince said that you will stay there until the eighth prince comes back."
Lu Zhiyao lowered his head in silence. Maybe Beauty Pavilion was much safer than Prince Mu's Mansion, but Lu Zhiyao still felt uncomfortable in that place. Knowing that there were so many innocent women trapped there,
But there was nothing she could do. Being so close to them every day, she might as well live in Prince Mu's Mansion.
Lu Zhiyao rarely came to the Beauty Pavilion when it was still dark. He looked at the scenery around him along the way. Lu Zhiyao was in a daze. After seeing Lin Mubai, he had not said a few words.
, and was thrown directly into the cellar by Lin Mubai.
Lu Zhiyao's body fell straight down, and finally landed firmly on the ground. Before she could see clearly where she was, she heard Lin Mubai's voice coming from above her head.
"If you can't defeat a few of them, don't even think about coming up."
Lu Zhiyao looked up at Lin Mubai and asked puzzledly: "Isn't it the emperor's uncle who is accompanying me to practice martial arts?"
"Are you sure you want me to accompany you?" Lin Mubai waved the fan in his hand slowly, looked down at Lu Zhiyao, and asked with a smile on his lips.
Lu Zhiyao looked at his smile and felt a chill down his back. He must still be angry because of the military power incident. To be his opponent at this time would undoubtedly be asking for death.
Lu Zhiyao said nothing and lowered his head. Lin Mubai sneered, turned and left, and asked Yin Jianli to block the exit.
As the sunlight above his head became less and less, and finally disappeared completely, the place where Lu Zhiyao was also became pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
Lu Zhiyao took a deep breath and sighed in his heart that Lin Mubai had so many ways to torture people. Listening to the unfamiliar voice saying "I'm offended", Lu Zhiyao felt that several people were moving towards him from different directions.
He rushed over by himself.
He has never tried to fight with someone in such a place where he can't see anything. Lu Zhiyao's eyes are not used to it, and other parts of his body are not used to it either. He can't accurately capture the opponent's position just by relying on the hearing of his ears.
There was no way to respond accordingly. After wasting a lot of time, Lu Zhiyao was finally able to determine the number of enemies. There were five of them. And judging from their strength, Lu Zhiyao thought that Lin Mubai must not have told them about him.
status, otherwise they would not dare to be so cruel to themselves, the eighth imperial concubine.
Lu Zhiyao shook his sore arm, gritted his teeth and continued to fight hard. He stayed in the dark cellar for several days, except when eating and sleeping, he could rest and use the light to see what he was doing.
Lu Zhiyao had never seen the sun outside the environment he was in. This made her have to wonder if Lin Mubai was not planning to let her out.
As the days passed, Lu Zhiyao, who knew nothing about the outside world, became more and more worried. Finally, Lin Mubai got Lu Zhiyao out after Qing Bing made a move.
Lu Zhiyao's disgraced appearance made Lin Mubai quite satisfied.
"Take her to take a bath and come back to see me."
Lin Mubai whispered to Yin Jianli. Lu Zhiyao was taken into a room by Yin Jianli. After Yin Jianli walked out of the room, he couldn't wait to jump into the bathtub. There have been a lot of things these days.
She was so embarrassed that she even slept on the ground with her clothes on. Lu Zhiyao washed her body vigorously. After cleaning herself, she put on the clothes that had been prepared for her and walked to the
She tied up her long hair in front of the bronze mirror and walked out of the room.
"Nangong Lingfeng has left the city and met the people from Qingming Kingdom. They should take action in the next couple of days." When Yin Jianli saw Lu Zhiyao coming out, he whispered to her: "Your Highness
Let you and I go out of the city, and he will arrange the affairs in the palace."
"Finally, the day came when they couldn't bear it anymore." Lu Zhiyao said with a relaxed smile: "Nangong Lingfeng has been struggling for so many days and still hasn't caught me. I wonder what his purpose is in meeting Qing Bing at this time.
If he still wants to force the emperor to abdicate, then he would be a little too irrational."
After leaving the city, he met Bai Lixuan and others. Yin Jianli looked at Chu Ziqian standing behind Bai Lixuan and frowned. He had seen him twice in the past few days, but he had no impression of who this person was.
.
Seeing Yin Jianli's confused expression, Lu Zhiyao smiled slightly and said, "His name is Chu Ziqian. He is the eldest young master of the Chu family. He has volunteered to do something for the people. We can't stop him."
"Chu Ziqian?" Yin Jianli was familiar with this name, because Lu Zhiyao was once tied to this name, which made people in the capital discuss it for a long time. He looked at Chu Ziqian carefully, his sharp eyes making him
Chu Ziqian's body was a little stiff.
Volunteered? When did he volunteer? If he didn't have something in her hands, he wouldn't know where to hide and live happily now. How could he do such a dangerous thing!
"This is a young man from a famous family, not the flower-picking thief. Don't get me wrong."
Lu Zhiyao's words made Chu Ziqian's already ugly face become gloomier. It would be better not to say what she said, as it would be more likely to make people suspicious. Or did she do it on purpose?
Although Yin Jianli was suspicious, he didn't ask any more questions. He looked at the people seriously and said, "Everything is going according to plan. No matter what, these two thousand young soldiers cannot be allowed to attack the palace."
"Two thousand? Didn't you say one thousand before?" Lu Zhiyao looked at Yin Jianli in confusion, "Then is there any movement over there at Nangong Lingfeng?"
"The prince has dispatched part of the army to Xun City in the past two days on the pretext of military training. After knowing the news, General Nangong also sent 4,000 of the only 5,000 elites around him to Xun City to train together, leaving only
One thousand is now in the capital."
"As expected of General Nangong, he knows how to follow Prince Mu." Lu Zhiyao teased, but he did not relax his vigilance in his heart. Nangong Lingfeng sent all his people away to show others that he had no intention of rebellion.
Or do you have other plans?
Several people separated and monitored the Qing Bing's actions from different positions. Seeing the scattered crowd gradually gathering together, Lu Zhiyao clenched the long sword in his hand, looked at Yin Jianli with a half-smile, and said:
"It seems our trip was not in vain."
Only a few people were fighting against two thousand enemy troops. The huge gap in numbers made Chu Ziqian almost want to run away, but just when he took a step back physically, he was firmly caught by Lu Zhiyao
.
"Where do you want to go?" Lu Zhiyao's soft voice made Chu Ziqian tremble. The tender girl was originally his favorite, but Lu Zhiyao's behavior made him feel cold from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
The feeling of the heart.
"I'm a little nervous and have stage fright. Let me relax." Chu Ziqian glanced at the army rushing towards him, lowered his voice and said to Lu Zhiyao: "I won't do this posture as a girl."
"Bargaining with me at this time?" Lu Zhiyao raised his eyebrows, "Do you believe it or not, if you continue talking, I won't give you anything?"
"I know your government is unreliable!" Chu Ziqian looked unhappy and raised his voice slightly, causing several people over there to turn their attention to him. "That's not what we said at the beginning.
of!"
"You never told me that you would run away at this moment." Lu Zhiyao smiled beautifully, "Whether the peach tree in your yard is useful or not depends on how many enemy troops you kill for me tonight.
.”
The corner of Chu Ziqian's mouth stiffened, revealing an extremely unnatural smile. Just as the two of them were talking, Bai Lixuan and others had already rushed over. Chu Ziqian drew his sword from the scabbard, tilting it faintly.
Lu Zhiyao glanced at him and muttered angrily: "When I find a princess to have a baby one day, I will never have to be angry with you vulgar people again!"
