"How much do you know about Liu Yiyu and Lin Yixiang?" Lu Zhiyao asked in a low voice after looking at Lin Yinan for a while.
"Almost everything you need to know is known. It's just a matter of time, but now, do you still care about that?"
Lu Zhiyao's faint anxiety due to Liu Yiyu's appearance made Lin Yinan quite concerned.
Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Yinan. Lin Yinan's gloomy eyes that he didn't often show made Lu Zhiyao slightly stunned. His expression was confused for a moment, and Lu Zhiyao said with a smile: "Of course I care, but what I care about is how to look at it.
They put on a good show. She wanted to die because of me. I don't think she would have thought that I would die so quickly."
Lu Zhiyao stood up and walked to the window, leaning against the window frame and looking outside. After standing for a long time, he suddenly turned to look at Lin Yinan and said, "When you have time, can you take me out of the city? I want to go to Yudie and the others.
The villa we passed by.”
"Okay." Lin Yinan replied immediately, "There are also places they haven't been to before, and I will take you there as well."
Lin Yinan's promise made Lu Zhiyao's mood lighten up in an instant. He sighed and let out all the heaviness in his heart. Even news came from the palace that when the two of them went to the palace in the evening, Lu Zhiyao
Nothing unusual.
Lu Zhiyao went back to the house to get ready. Lin Yinan grabbed Lin Ruoxue who was passing in front of him and whispered: "When you enter the palace at night, spend more time with your eighth sister-in-law, and try not to leave her alone, you know?"
"
"Understood." Lin Ruoxue nodded slowly, but she didn't understand the meaning of Lin Yinan's actions. "But Brother Eight, it's not the first time for Eighth Sister-in-law to enter the palace, and she won't be lost, so why are you so nervous?"
Lin Ruoxue smiled mysteriously and joked: "Don't worry, although the eighth sister-in-law is beautiful, everyone knows that she is yours, so nothing will happen to her."
Lin Yinan didn't say anything, but there was a hint of smile in his eyes. After flicking Lin Ruoxue's forehead, Lin Yinan turned and left, leaving Lin Ruoxue standing there alone, rubbing her head with dissatisfaction, and then went to find Lu Zhiyao.
.
When the time came, Lu Zhiyao and Lin Ruoxue followed Lin Yinan into the palace. Unfortunately, as soon as they arrived at the palace, Lin Yinan was called by the emperor. The banquet had not started yet, and Lu Zhiyao and Lin Ruoxue did not want to go there too early, in order to save the time and money.
Many people they didn't know were staring at each other, wasting time, so the two of them thought of walking around the area first, waiting for Lin Yinan to come back, and then find time to see Zi Ningshuang. But things didn't go their way, and they wanted to spend their time in peace.
The idea during this period was not realized, so I met Chang Xiaofan who was passing by.
Chang Xiaofan obviously did not expect to bump into these two people. Because of what happened to Lin Ruoxue last time, her life has been very difficult recently. Zi Ningshuang sent this delicate little princess to the Eighth Emperor's Mansion for protection.
He got up and began to target her. The emperor was already furious because of Lin Ruoxue. Although he still left her a trace of face and did not say her name in front of everyone, anyone who is not stupid would think about it for a moment.
Then she understood who the emperor was scolding that day. For so many days, she had no chance to see the emperor. Every time she went to see the emperor, he was rejected by him for various reasons.
After suffering so many days of grievance, it was understandable that Chang Xiaofan would feel irritable when he looked at Lin Ruoxue and Lu Zhiyao again, especially when he saw Lin Ruoxue looking at him with an innocent face and even a little fear.
Chang Xiaofan was even more uncomfortable. The two of them used the emperor's favor against themselves, and now it seemed as if he had made them suffer. It was simply ridiculous.
Chang Xiaofan had a cold face, and when Lu Zhiyao and Lin Ruoxue greeted her, she didn't say anything. The servant next to her looked at Chang Xiaofan's expression, and spoke boldly, "Your Majesty.
, it’s getting late, we’d better go there first, don’t keep the Queen and Princess Luo waiting.”
"That's true." Chang Xiaofan smiled coldly, looked back at the slave, and said with something in his words: "It was dark, and my eyesight was a little bad. I thought I saw some princess. It turned out that I was blind, and I saw it wrong.
Already."
Chang Xiaofan brought up old things again, which made Lin Ruoxue's already nervous look even more intense. Holding Lu Zhiyao's sleeve tightly, Lin Ruoxue whispered, "Eighth sister-in-law, let's go."
"Let's go?" Lu Zhiyao stood there straightening his back, holding Lin Ruoxue's cold hand, and said with a smile: "We haven't seen the empress for a long time, how can we leave without saying a few words? This makes others
If you know it, wouldn't it mean that you and I don't understand the rules and are disrespectful to the queen?"
Lu Zhiyao walked up to Chang Xiaofan in a swagger, met Chang Xiaofan's displeased gaze, and said, "The clothes you are wearing today seem a little different from usual ones?"
"Of course, this is the silk and satin that Princess Luo specially gave to our mother-in-law. She brought it back from a foreign country. Most people can't see it." Chang Xiaofan said nothing, but the little maid began to flatter her again.
"Even the emperor likes the clothes that the empress is wearing. Maybe the emperor will come to the empress again tonight."
Chang Xiaofan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled with satisfaction, and the coldness on his face faded a bit. This girl, it is not in vain that he usually loves her so much, she actually knows how to save her face in front of these two people, which is good.
"No wonder the empress likes you so much and brings you with her to such an important occasion." Lu Zhiyao also cast his eyes on the maid behind Chang Xiaofan. She has a nice face and looks young. It's a pity that she didn't follow her.
Good people, learn something good. "It's really rare to see such uninformed people nowadays. The clothes the queen is wearing today are special enough, but they are not particularly beautiful, but they complement the queen's skin color in a special way."
It’s black, and…”
Lu Zhiyao slowly moved his eyes down, glanced at Chang Xiaofan's lower body, and said leisurely: "It looks like the legs are also very short."
"you……"
"Xiaoxue, it's time for us to leave." Lu Zhiyao didn't give Chang Xiaofan any chance to scold her angrily. He mocked Chang Xiaofan, dragged Lin Ruoxue and ran away. Knowing full well that Chang Xiaofan would never do it for the sake of dignity.
He ran to catch up. After the two of them reached a quiet place where no one was around, Lu Zhiyao looked directly at Lin Ruoxue, who was panting.
"Xiaoxue, no one will always be by your side to protect you, not even your parents. If you meet such a person in the future, you must remember not to bow your head and give in. Do you understand?"
Lin Ruoxue gritted her teeth and nodded vigorously. "I understand, I won't do this again."
"Be good." Lu Zhiyao looked at where he was. It seemed that he was a little far away from the place where he and Lin Yinan just separated. "Let's go, your brother will be anxious in a while."
The two of them walked slowly towards the place they had agreed with Lin Yinan, and soon they saw Lin Yinan's figure. Unfortunately, there was someone else beside him.
Lin Yinan saw Lu Zhiyao and Lin Ruoxue from a distance. He looked past Lin Yixiang's body towards the two. Lin Yixiang looked sideways and looked at Lu Zhiyao impartially.
Meeting two people you don't want to see in a row is really a road between enemies.
Lu Zhiyao secretly murmured in his heart, walked to Lin Yinan with a smile, pretended that nothing had happened, greeted Lin Yixiang, and then asked: "Why don't you see the princess with you?"
Nangong Nuoer usually clings to Lin Yixiang very tightly. On such an important day, she shouldn't act alone.
"She went to the queen's place." After so many things, Lin Yixiang was a little uncomfortable talking to Lu Zhiyao. Looking at Lin Ruoxue, Lin Yixiang changed the subject and said, "I heard that you have lived in the Eight Emperors Mansion for some time.
Well, how about it, compared with the palace, is the Eighth Emperor's Palace more interesting?"
"Interesting!" Lin Ruoxue didn't think too much and quickly replied: "I can still go out with my eighth sister-in-law, but no one can accompany me in the palace."
"I just know how to play. Be careful to let your mother-in-law know, otherwise she will scold you again."
Lin Ruoxue stuck out her tongue and spoke to Lin Yixiang unconvinced. They stood there talking for a long time. Lu Zhiyao was a little tired, and he didn't see Lin Yixiang wanting to leave. He didn't know what he was selling in his gourd.
Lu Zhiyao stood there to accompany her. It wasn't until she saw Chang Xiaofan walking over with swaying steps that Lu Zhiyao's expression changed slightly.
Lin Yinan had long realized that Lu Zhiyao couldn't stand it any longer. He watched her eyes wandering around and looking around absentmindedly. Lin Yinan was just watching the excitement.
"Eighth sister-in-law, she has changed her clothes." Lin Ruoxue soon noticed Chang Xiaofan, couldn't help but smile, and whispered to Lu Zhiyao.
"Actually, this outfit is not as good as the one she just wore." Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Ruoxue with a serious expression, "But it's better not to let her know, otherwise she might not be able to make it to the feast if she changes again."
Lin Yinan heard the conversation between the two and looked at Lu Zhiyao gloating about his misfortune. Lin Yinan asked softly: "Are you causing trouble again?"
"No way." Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yinan dissatisfied and said, "I just met the empress, so I just said a few more words."
While several people were talking, Chang Xiaofan had already walked over. He gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Zhiyao. Because Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang were around him, Chang Xiaofan couldn't say anything more. He followed with a smile.
After a few words, Chang Xiaofan left in a hurry. But the look in her eyes at Lu Zhiyao before leaving made everyone realize that something was wrong.
"Is it really just a few words?" Lin Yinan asked again, but there was no trace of impatience or anger on his face, as if he was enjoying Lu Zhiyao's behavior in irritating Chang Xiaofan.
Lin Yixiang observed the two of them carefully, and a feeling slowly emerged in his heart that even he could not explain clearly. Depressed? Unhappy? Lin Yixiang secretly asked himself, what does the matter between these two people have to do with him?
