Chapter 25 The left and right are not human beings
When Lu Yuanzheng heard Lu Zhiyao's affirmative answer, his heart that was hanging in mid-air finally settled down. But he still didn't understand, wasn't he going to choose the crown princess? How could it be so easily involved with the eighth prince?
Lu Yuanzheng asked what he was thinking. Lu Zhiyao turned around and looked around and asked, "Dad, can we go to the study to talk?"
Lu Yuanzheng also realized his impatience, so he nodded and took Lu Zhiyao into the study. After Lu Zhiyao told him the whole story, Lu Yuanzheng fell silent.
"Dad, my daughter has something to say, I don't know whether I should say it or not." Lu Zhiyao looked at Lu Yuanzheng solemnly. After Lu Yuanzheng indicated what she had to say, Lu Zhiyao said cautiously: "Dad, don't you think it's suspicious? Prince
We are sworn enemies with the Eighth Prince, how can we really care about the Eighth Prince? By pushing me to the Eighth Prince's side, what does the Prince want to do? Help Dad make a decision? Give Dad a blow? Make Dad embarrassed?"
"Hey." Lu Yuanzheng sighed heavily. What Lu Zhiyao said was exactly what he was worried about. Lin Yichen and Lin Yixiang suddenly made such a move, which really caught him off guard. "But I have already negotiated with the Seventh Prince before.
, why did they change their mind again?”
"Dad has promised the seventh prince and the prince?!" Lu Zhiyao was shocked, and soon thought of another possibility, a possibility that put him even more in danger.
Lu Zhiyao suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, looked at Lu Yuanzheng with a calm expression, and said: "Dad, I think it's time for you to make a decision, decide whose side to stand on, instead of being forced by the seventh prince.
It’s the same, I just want to pretend it’s superficial.”
"How do you say this?" Lu Yuanzheng's heart was already in a mess. At this time, he could only follow Lu Zhiyao's train of thought.
"If I'm not wrong, the prince probably wants to arrange for me to be a traitor next to the eighth prince."
Lu Zhiyao had to applaud Lin Yichen's move. Not only did he show his concern for Lin Yinan in front of the emperor, he also secretly helped Lu Yuanzheng make a decision that Lu Yuanzheng could never make on his own. Today in the back garden
, Although what Lin Yichen said offended the Ye family, he still had other ways to solve it, didn't he? Lu Zhiqing should have gone to choose the crown princess this time. If Lu Zhiqing really went, wouldn't Lin Yichen
Will he really keep her?
In this case, the hardest thing to do is probably yourself.
"The prince will probably send his sister to you in a while. Dad, have you decided which side you want to side with, the prince and the eighth prince?"
Lu Yuanzheng was very excited by what Lu Zhiyao said. He wanted to scold her for talking nonsense, but after thinking about it, what she said did make sense. He knew that he had always underestimated Lu
Now Lu Yuanzheng no longer ignores Lu Zhiyao as before, but tentatively asks her for her opinion.
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lu Yuanzheng's cautious look and felt a little ironic in his heart. Is what she said really useful? If Lu Yuanzheng was not stupid, he would definitely choose the prince. When the time comes, she will be the only one Lu Zhiyao is not.
People will get a bad reputation regardless of who they help.
Although the prince said on the surface that she was a lucky star today, he still knew the rumors about her and believed them a little. When Lu Zhiyao thought about the reason why he was in such a situation now, it was because of the hatred Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing had for them.
I couldn't help but add some more.
"Dad, a daughter cannot determine his choice. The prince is the eldest son of the emperor, and the only son of the queen. His chances of inheriting the throne are much greater than that of the eighth prince. At this point, we have no other choice.
The same goes for my daughter, she has no choice."
When Lu Zhiyao spoke, the expression on his face was a bit like death, which made Lu Yuanzheng feel a little uncomfortable. No matter what, she is his daughter.
"You go back first. You are tired today. Take a good rest. Dad will come to you if anything happens."
Lu Zhiyao left Lu Yuanzheng's place and walked slowly back to his small courtyard. Lin Yinan should know about the matter she was pointed out to the eighth prince by the emperor soon... I wonder if he will come to settle matters with him then.
account……
Lu Zhiyao's worry was not without reason. In fact, when she just left the palace, Lin Yinan had already received the news.
Lin Yinan was lying on the hammock in the courtyard, enjoying the bright sunshine with his eyes slightly closed. After hearing the news brought back by Ling Yi, Lin Yinan was silent for a long time and suddenly smiled.
Lin Yinan opened his eyes and looked at Ling Yi. He saw Ling Yi's worried expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Master, I think we should find time to get rid of that Lu Zhiyao." Ling Yi also knew about Lu Zhiyao's visit to Lin Yinan last night. He always felt that that woman was extraordinary.
"Why?" Lin Yinan asked softly, seemingly not understanding what Ling Yi was thinking.
"Don't you think, Master, that she was sent by the Crown Prince?" Ling Yi frowned, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"Do you think she can kill me?" Lin Yinan asked with a slight smile. Looking at Ling Yi's slightly startled expression, Lin Yinan didn't care about this matter. "It is possible that Lu Zhiyao wants to get close to me intentionally.
, because that Xia Han is still in my hands. But if Lu Zhiyao communicated with Lin Yichen and the others before, I think it is unlikely. Lu Yuanzheng is not so confused that he wants to help Lin Yichen deal with me openly.
To the point. I think it’s true that Lin Yichen set up the father and daughter today."
"But Master, if that Lu Zhiyao really comes to our house, then your body..."
"She can't control whether I die or not. Lu Zhiyao's reputation is not good. Even if Lin Yichen said that, the emperor would still have some scruples. Lu Zhiyao has too many titles as a broom star.
Everyone knows it. He is still reluctant to let me die, and he is also afraid that this 'broom star' will affect my body. It is not certain whether he can really send Lu Zhiyao here. If I die, what will happen to those people?
The old man will definitely lose his temper."
Lin Yinan adjusted to a comfortable position and continued to rest with his eyes closed. "We are not the ones who should be anxious now. Just wait and see what happens. If people are really sent over, just accept them. Having one more slave is not a bad thing, and like Xia
It would be nice if I just put him next to you like Han."
Lin Yinan's words made Ling Yi stunned. The emperor appointed the princess to be his slave?
Lin Yinan waved his hand and asked Ling Yi to retreat. After Ling Yi walked out of the yard, Lin Yinan slowly opened his eyes again.
He really wanted to know what Lu Zhiyao would do now. After all, she was a smart woman. Who would she choose between herself and Lin Yichen?
After Lu Zhiyao came back from the palace, her status in the Prime Minister's Mansion was different from before. Lu Yuanzheng not only rewarded her with a new house and a new maid, but even Ye Lianrong had to smile when she saw Lu Zhiyao.
.
Many slaves did not understand the real reason for this change, because the emperor had not actually issued an order to give Lu Zhiyao to the eighth prince, so the news was not known to everyone. They only knew that Lu Zhiyao was entering the palace.
She went to choose the crown princess, but when she came back, the master didn't treat her the same way as before, so everyone naturally thought that the crown prince might really have a crooked eye and fall in love with Lu Zhiyao.
It has always been the skill of these slaves to run wherever the wind blows. Lu Zhiyao looked at the slaves who were working diligently with him one by one, and could only smile. In these good days, she still
I don't know how many days it will last.
The servants didn't know the news in the palace, but that didn't mean that Ye Lianrong didn't know. Ye Zhihua sent someone to inform Ye Lianrong early in the morning. Although Ye Lianrong didn't hear some details, she still understood the general story of what happened.
Ye Lianrong clenched her fists angrily. Just as Lu Zhiyao was thinking at the time, Ye Lianrong was very dissatisfied with the way the prince flattered Lu Zhiyao and stepped on her. In other words, he even stabbed her wound!
Doesn’t she want to have a son? Doesn’t she want to consolidate her position?
The more Ye Lianrong thought about it, the angrier she became, and finally she turned her anger on her unfulfilled daughter. Listening to Ye Lianrong's scolding, Lu Zhiqing frowned in confusion and asked: "Mom, what did you do in broad daylight?
evil?"
"Useless stuff!"
Ye Lianrong patted Lu Zhiqing's back in displeasure, which made Lu Zhiqing really hurt and angry. "Mom, what are you doing!"
Lu Zhiqing was scolded and beaten for no reason. Looking at Ye Lianrong with wide eyes, Lu Zhiqing guessed: "Did Dad make you angry again?"
"You still have the nerve to say that Lu Zhiyao will soon become the Eighth Imperial Concubine. Look at you, what use do you have!"
"Mom, what did you say?!" Lu Zhiqing raised her voice and asked in surprise: "Is it true or false?"
"What's true or false? Didn't you see that your father is trying to please her now? There are more slaves in her courtyard than we do!" Ye Lianrong thought that Lu Zhiyao would use the Eighth Prince's power to take revenge in the future.
I am scared and angry.
"Mom, what should we do in the future?" Lu Zhiqing suddenly ran out of ideas and was just as worried as Ye Lianrong. Lu Zhiqing lowered her voice and asked, "How about we go find grandpa and uncle to find a solution?
?”
Lu Zhiqing's words reminded Ye Lianrong that although her father was not the top official in the civil service department, there were still many ministers promoted by him in the court. If Lu Zhiyao really married the eighth prince, then his daughter would also have to find one.
It takes a good family.
"Wait for me at home. Look at your face. How can you get married in the future?" Ye Lianrong got up and was about to go back to her parents' home. She took a look at Lu Zhiqing's red and swollen face. Ye Lianrong secretly swallowed her anger. Lu Zhiqing's illness was good and bad.
, sometimes it’s almost healed, but she can’t explain why it suddenly relapses. She hasn’t left the house for so many days, and it’s impossible for the pollen to blow into the house. “I’ll find a way to find a doctor for you.
Look at your illness, and remember not to trouble Lu Zhiyao now, or your father won't be able to spare you, do you hear me?"
