Nangong Nuo'er was just about to say something when she heard Lin Yixiang's voice. She had suffered humiliation from Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao several times in succession. Now after Lin Yinan said those words, her anger had gone.
When it reached her throat, she might erupt at any time, but thinking about the reason why she came here today, Nangong Nuoer closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, slowly stood up, looked deeply at Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang, and went out.
Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang were the only ones left in the room. Lin Yixiang's eyes were always staring at Lin Yinan. The moment Lin Yinan glanced slightly sideways and met his gaze, Lin Yixiang spoke.
"Who is Lu Zhiyao?"
"You came to me specifically just to ask this?" Lin Yinan raised his eyebrows, his eyes a little gloomy. "You didn't even know who she was, so you had murderous intentions towards her. Why didn't I know before? It turns out that Luo
Is the prince such a cruel person?"
"How much does she know about the Xia family? Are you not afraid of her treating you..."
"The Xia family's affairs have nothing to do with me." Lin Yinan said categorically: "No matter how much she knows, it is her business. If you want to know, just ask her in person. But I think there are some things you still don't want to know.
good."
"What do you mean by that?" Lin Yixiang looked at him a little confused. Is there anything in the Xia family that he doesn't know?
Lin Yinan smiled silently, did not answer Lin Yixiang's question, and changed the topic. "It seems that General Nangong has no intention of giving me an explanation. In this case, please go back."
Lin Yinan didn't want to talk too much to Lin Yixiang. If only Nangong Lingfeng and Nangong Nuo'er had taken action against Lu Zhiyao, maybe he wouldn't have done so. But Lin Yixiang had clearly warned him, but things still reached this point.
"Go back and tell Nangong Lingfeng that this matter will not end like this."
Lin Yinan gave the eviction order, and Lin Yixiang looked seriously at the man with a strong attitude in front of him. He was completely different from the man in his impression.
In his memory, Lin Yinan sat in E Niang's arms and read a book when he was a child. He knew that the medicine was poisonous but still dared to drink it without hesitation. When he heard that the emperor might intend to pass the throne to him, he said lightly: "I
Not interested in the throne."
Since when, have I become more and more unfamiliar with him, to the point where I have almost forgotten that he is my biological brother?
"I won't do anything to her again." Lin Yixiang slowly stood up and said to Lin Yinan slowly: "So, for my sake, let's forget about it this time."
"Forget it?" Lin Yinan was a little surprised that Lin Yixiang would say these two words so easily. He looked thoughtfully into Lin Yixiang's eyes and asked: "Is this what General Nangong wanted you to say to me?
"
Lin Yixiang didn't say anything else. Lin Yinan's eyes flashed with a stern look. He opened the door and walked out. He passed by Nangong Nuo'er in the courtyard without squinting. Lin Yinan walked straight towards the backyard without looking at the two of them.
One glance.
Lu Zhiyao sat on the roof, staring blankly at Lin Yinan's retreating figure, his heart fluctuating because of the words he just said.
Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuoer also left. Lu Zhiyao leaned back and lay directly on the roof, looking at the blue sky above his head, feeling the vague feeling in his heart alone, like joy, but also
Mixed with a hint of uneasiness.
He was willing to stand up for himself and confront Nangong Lingfeng. Lu Zhiyao knew that this was very dangerous, but she felt a little... because of his actions.
happy.
The curve of the corner of her mouth quietly revealed Lu Zhiyao's thoughts at the moment. She lay on the roof for a while, jumped to the ground and walked towards the backyard.
When Lu Zhiyao saw Lin Yinan, he was sitting in the yard listening to Lan Ruoling talk about the Ye family. After hearing Lu Zhiyao's footsteps, the two of them turned to look at her in unison. Lu Zhiyao paused.
Wanting to leave, he asked hesitantly: "Are you talking about business?"
"We're talking about Ye Zhihua." Lan Ruoling looked at Lu Zhiyao with a smile, "He came to us early in the morning and said he wanted to see the master."
"Have you settled Ye Shengnan's matter?"
"It's done."
"No wonder." Lu Zhiyao smiled meaningfully. The Ye family had been kicked away by the prince and was no longer used. He knew that his son was killed by the Nangong family, but when he was unable to retaliate, Nangong Lingfeng
He made such a big mistake and let the young soldiers sneak to the city gate. At this time, it would be unreasonable for Ye Zhihua to turn to Lin Yinan again.
After Lin Yinan whispered to Lan Ruoling and asked Ye Zhihua to come find her at night, he stood up and walked to Lu Zhiyao's side and said, "Follow me into the palace."
"Enter the palace?" Lu Zhiyao opened his eyes wide, remembering what he said in front of the emperor that day, swallowed his saliva, and asked, "Why are you going to the palace?"
"What else can we do? See the Emperor." Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao's somewhat uncomfortable expression and asked while leading her out: "What's wrong? Don't want to go?"
"The emperor asked you to take me to see him, right..." Lu Zhiyao guessed weakly. After seeing Lin Yinan nodding in recognition, he sighed and dragged Lin Mubai in front of the emperor because of his impatience that day.
I told Lin Yinan about going into the water. "I don't know what the emperor means by wanting to see me today."
Lin Yinan was not concerned about what the emperor would do to Lu Zhiyao, but he was suspicious of how Lin Mubai would help her and let Xia Han and others hide in Prince Mu's Mansion after being tricked by Lu Zhiyao?
Lin Yinan was surprised when Lan Ruoling told him the news. When did Lu Zhiyao start to be able to deal with Lin Mubai by himself?
"What did Prince Mu say?" Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao's scared look with interest, "Did he hit you?"
"Don't mention it." Lu Zhiyao can still think of Lin Mubai's face at that time. It was so cold that people didn't dare to look at it a second time. "I'm really afraid that I won't survive until you come back, but it's okay, uncle Huang."
He still has some humanity."
Lu Zhiyao said with a sigh, which made Lin Yinan couldn't help laughing. If Lin Mubai heard someone say that he was "somewhat human", I wonder how he would react?
Entering the palace, he came to the imperial study room where the emperor was. When the eunuch guarding the door saw Lin Yinan arriving, he immediately nodded and walked in front of him, and said with a flattering smile: "I'm going to pay my respects to the eighth prince and the eighth imperial concubine.
The prince and the eighth princess will wait a moment, the emperor is talking to General Nangong inside."
Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao waited for a long time, and finally saw Nangong Lingfeng walking out of the room with a gloomy look. Nangong Lingfeng saw these two people as soon as he went out, and his already bad mood became even more irritable.
But he still had to pretend like nothing happened and talk to the two of them with a smile.
Lin Yinan did not accept Nangong Lingfeng's overtures, looked at him coldly, said nothing, and took Lu Zhiyao directly into the study.
Outside the house, Nangong Lingfeng stood there with his fists clenched. The cold air on his body made the eunuch beside him so frightened that he did not dare to take a breath. Fortunately, Nangong Lingfeng left quickly, and the eunuch could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and again
He returned to the door of the room and guarded it.
Lu Zhiyao followed Lin Yinan and walked to Lin Yunlong with his head lowered. He didn't know what the emperor would say today. He might be angry because Lin Yinan leaked the secret to him.
But to Lu Zhiyao's surprise, Lin Yunlong did not mention that matter in front of her. Instead, he praised her for killing the green soldiers guarding the city gate, gave her something and asked her to leave first. This made her
Lu Zhiyao, who had already thought about a lot of responses in her mind, including some lies she had made up, was a little unable to adapt.
Lu Zhiyao thanked him and exited the room. Lin Yinan stood there, watching the way Lin Yunlong looked at him after Lu Zhiyao left, knowing that what he really wanted to say had not yet been spoken.
"What's going on with this Lu Zhiyao? I heard from my slave that she killed a lot of young soldiers outside the city last night. How come I haven't heard of her knowing martial arts before?"
"It's not a big deal in the first place, so I didn't mention it to my father specifically. Like Erchen, Zhiyao has not been in good health since childhood, so he just practiced some kung fu to keep fit." Lin Yinan answered calmly, with an expression that was hard to find.
A little flaw.
"Really? Then why did you tell her what I told you? I remember telling you that this matter must not be known to others."
"The situation was critical, and I had no choice but to tell her the matter. Besides, father, didn't she also help defeat the Qing soldiers? Neither I nor she will let anyone know about the border training."
, so please rest assured, father, if anything happens to you, I will bear the responsibility alone."
Lin Yunlong looked at Lin Yinan intently, guessing what he was really thinking at the moment. There was silence in the study, and the eunuch outside the room listened hard for a long time without hearing any more sounds. Just when the eunuch felt that something was wrong, Lin Yunlong
Finally he spoke again and didn't mention the matter again.
Lu Zhiyao stood outside the study, but could not wait for Lin Yinan to come out. He and the eunuch stared at each other from time to time, and even Lu Zhiyao himself felt a little bored.
"If the Eighth Princess is bored, she can go for a walk. My servant will tell the Eighth Prince when he comes out."
Lu Zhiyao turned his head and looked at the eunuch who had walked to him, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Then I'll have you to thank my father-in-law."
Lu Zhiyao was not very familiar with the palace, so he did not dare to go too far. He just walked around the study room. Unexpectedly, he met Lin Ruoxue, and there were several other people around her.
Lu Zhiyuan looked at Lin Ruoxue standing there with her head lowered. She didn't look like she was playing with those people. Besides her, those people were very well-dressed, and she could tell at a glance.
Which palace is she from?
What trouble did the little princess get into and was caught? Lu Zhiyao thought doubtfully, and then walked over slowly.
Lu Zhiyao originally thought that Lin Mubai was kind to her, and Lin Mubai liked this little princess, so she helped Lin Ruoxue, which was considered to be helping Lin Mubai. Thinking of this, Lu Zhiyao felt
It felt a little more comfortable. But when she got closer to those people, she realized that things were not as simple as she thought.
