Ye Lianrong was so shocked by Lu Zhiqing's words that she trembled violently and almost fell off the stool. After steadying herself, Ye Lianrong opened her eyes wide and looked at Lu Zhiqing with an incredulous look on her face.
"It's the real mother, she said it herself." Lu Zhiqing nodded vigorously, forgetting the pain on her body and forgetting to cry. Lu Zhiqing came to Ye Lianrong's side and whispered: "She was the one who was in the yard that night.
Yes, she threatened me today, saying that she would avenge her mother and her brother."
After hearing Lu Zhiqing's words, Ye Lianrong didn't make a sound for a long time. If you put it this way, today's incident was probably planned by Lu Zhiyao... But what is the relationship between the eighth prince and her?
"Are you sure you heard it correctly?" Ye Lianrong asked worriedly.
"It's impossible to hear wrong!" Lu Zhiqing saw that Ye Lianrong didn't believe her and became anxious. "Mom, why don't you believe me?!"
"The eighth prince really told him to let Lu Zhiyao recover from his injuries and go to his house to find him?"
"Yes! Mother, what do you think the eighth prince has to do with her? Didn't I hear you say before that this eighth prince never shows up easily? But he came to our place today and even gave Lu Lu a special visit.
Zhiyuan called the imperial doctor, and I was really angry!"
Ye Lianrong ignored Lu Zhiqing's complaints and just thought about Lu Zhiyao's affairs with fear. If Lu Zhiyao got the Eighth Prince involved, things would be difficult to handle. If Lu Zhiyao's actions today were just to give her
If he takes the first step to take revenge on his mother, then she will definitely not let him go in the future. In other words, only one of them can stay in this Prime Minister's Mansion...
Ye Lianrong knew very well what the consequences would be if Lu Zhiyao revealed what she had done back then. He is still a little jealous of people from his natal family and does not dare to hit him easily. But when the time comes,
Lu Yuanzheng would not just scold her like he did today and make her sit back and think about her mistakes without eating.
Ye Lianrong remained silent, which made Lu Zhiqing anxious. Gently shaking Ye Lianrong's arm, Lu Zhiqing asked cautiously: "Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Ye Lianrong slowly raised her eyes and met Lu Zhiqing's eyes. She moved uncomfortably, and Ye Lianrong lowered her voice and said: "If what you said is true and Lu Zhiyao really wants to take revenge on our mother and daughter, then
, she can’t keep it.”
"You mean...kill her?" Lu Zhiqing blinked. After seeing Ye Lianrong nodded, Lu Zhiqing continued: "That's good, but she is not as easy to deal with as before. We need to
How to start? Didn’t dad also say that he would send her to the palace to choose the crown princess? "
"Your father sent her to the palace because you couldn't go, otherwise how could it be her turn?" Ye Lianrong said about this matter with a bit of dissatisfaction and arrogance: "Even if she really enters the palace.
, nothing will happen. I don’t believe that she can remain defenseless. If anyone dares to ruin my good deeds, I will definitely not let her have an easy time!"
Ye Lianrong gritted her teeth and vowed. How could she let Lu Zhiyao ruin her years of hard work? How much effort did she spend to win the position of the prime minister's wife?
"You give me some strength in the future and don't let her take advantage anymore, you know?" Ye Lianrong suddenly reached out and hit Lu Zhiqing's arm, causing Lu Zhiqing to scream unpreparedly. "Scream, scream, just scream! Just cry!
!If you grow some brains in the future and let her scheme again, I won’t spare you!"
Lu Zhiqing listened to Ye Lianrong's scolding and knew that she had made a mistake today and suffered a loss, so she had no choice but to nod her head and promised that she would never let Lu Zhiyao be so proud again.
Wanyue returned to the other courtyard, happily talking to Yudie and Lu Zhiyao about what she had heard. The bright smile on her face made Lu Zhiyao, who was lying on the bed, involuntarily feel better.
When Wan Yue was talking enthusiastically, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. She closed her mouth and looked back cautiously, only to see several unfamiliar maids entering the room.
"Who are you?" Wan Yue asked, tilting her head.
"The master asked us to come over and serve the young lady." The leading maid lowered her head and said.
Lu Zhiyao glanced at the faces of those people one by one, then looked at Yudie and said softly: "Go and arrange things for them, and just ask Wan Yue to stay with me."
Although Lu Yuanzheng sent these people, Lu Zhiyao could not trust them. How many people in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion have not taken Ye Lianrong's money? Maybe one of these people today is Ye Lianrong's spy. She
Have to guard against it.
"Wan Yue." Lu Zhiyao called Wan Yue in a low voice, gesturing for her to bend down and listen to him. After Wan Yue came over, Lu Zhiyao ordered: "Keep an eye on these people, and tell me if you find anything wrong."
I, they might be the second lady’s people, do you understand?”
"Understood, I'll take care of it!" Wan Yue rolled her eyes and said to Lu Zhiyao confidently. Then she pretended that nothing happened and continued to accompany Lu Zhiyao.
Although Wan Yue is not as calm as Yu Die, she is still very clever. She is much more dissatisfied with Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing than Yu Die, and because of what Lu Zhiyao said to her before, coupled with what happened today, Wan Yue
She became more and more convinced that Lu Zhiyao would definitely defeat those two people, so her mood around Lu Zhiyao naturally changed.
Lu Zhiyao looked at Wan Yue's smiling side face and slowly relaxed and closed his eyes. This time, both Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing would never dare to do anything to them again. What she should do now is how to deal with Xiao Han.
Rescue him. But the eighth prince shouldn’t let him go so easily...?
Lu Zhiyao rested for two days. When people in the house no longer paid as much attention to her as they had in the first two days, Lu Zhiyao began to plan to find Lin Yinan. He thought about all the questions Lin Yinan might ask.
Lu Zhiyao thought of many answers, but when he met Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao found that all his preparations were in vain.
As soon as she entered the room, Lu Zhiyao felt the cold, knife-like eyes staring at her. The door behind her was slammed shut, making Lu Zhiyao's nerves immediately tense. Looking around, she quickly
Then I saw Lin Yinan.
Under the light of the pale yellow candlelight, Lin Yinan was lying sideways on the couch. He didn't move when he saw Lu Zhiyao coming in. He just raised his head slightly and looked at her intently.
Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Yinan for a few times, then turned away uncomfortably. For some reason, she always felt defeated every time she looked at this man.
Lin Yinan looked at the woman who came late at night. After a cold light flashed through his eyes, he returned to his previous appearance in the blink of an eye.
Lu Zhiyao stepped forward. He approached Lin Yinan and spoke in a low voice, "Lu Zhiyao has seen the Eighth Prince. He came to disturb the Eighth Prince's rest so late. Please don't..."
"How did you get here?" Lin Yinan interrupted Lu Zhiyao's words, raised his eyes slightly, and asked: "It's so late, could it be that the Prime Minister sent someone to send you here?"
Lu Zhiyao gritted her teeth when asked by Lin Yinan. She also knew that coming here at this time would arouse his suspicion, and she also knew that this was not a good time. But apart from today, she didn't know when she would have to wait. Tomorrow she would be questioned by Lu Yuanzheng
After being sent to the palace, Lu Zhiyao didn't even bother to think about the series of things that happened after that. If he came late at night, at least other people would not find out and suspect him. As for Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao didn't care about that much anymore.
Anyway, he has the leverage in his hands, right?
"My dad didn't know I was coming."
"Climbed the wall?" Lin Yinan carefully noticed that there was some dust on Lu Zhiyao's body, and slowly sat up straight. Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao with a half-smile, which made Lu Zhiyao purse his lips in embarrassment and did not answer.
She climbed the wall in the middle of the night to look for him. Sure enough, it was for Xia Han, right? Lin Yinan gathered up her thin silk clothes and looked like she was waiting for Lu Zhiyao to confess. Lu Zhiyao waited for a long time but couldn't wait.
No matter what he said, he had to start it himself.
"I've already brought the money you want. When can I take you away?"
"You can do it at any time, but there are some things I have to figure out." Lin Yinan looked quite happy when he saw the banknote. "As long as you answer me, I will hand over the person to you."
Lu Zhiyao had long known that Lin Yinan would not let him go so easily, so he nodded helplessly. Lu Zhiyao secretly thought about the answer to deal with Lin Yinan.
"As far as I know, the two daughters of the Xia family have nothing to do with you. Why are you so obsessed with this Xia Han?" This is something Lin Yinan has never figured out.
"The information about the Eighth Prince is wrong. I have always had a good relationship with Xia Yao, the eldest lady of the Xia family. I know many things about her very well."
"Oh? Really?" Lin Yinan didn't expect that Lu Zhiyao would turn the topic to Xia Yao so directly, but Xia Yao is already dead, that is, there is no proof, no matter what Lu Zhiyao says, it is okay
."Okay, let me ask you another question."
Lin Yinan glanced at Lu Zhiyao's hand that had not recovered yet, "What was the reason for framing Lu Zhiqing?"
He really saw his little move that day?!
Although Lu Zhiyao had considered this question before, when Lin Yinan really asked it, Lu Zhiyao was still a little swollen. She lowered her head and her mind was in confusion. She didn't know much about Lin Yinan before.
, the few times they met were with Lin Yixiang. She only knew that his health was not good, worse than Lin Yixiang's. It seemed that he was not from the prince's group. But after so many things happened
, Lu Zhiyao did not dare to easily believe what Lin Yixiang once told him. Who is sure that this Lin Yinan is not another dog of Prince Lin Yichen? Otherwise, why has he always been praised so highly by the ministers, but he has always been
Showing that he has no interest in the throne? Lu Zhiyao doesn't believe that those princes who grew up in the palace will despise the throne that is so easily available. The one in front of him is just a wolf in sheep's clothing.
There is no difference between him and Lin Yixiang.
