The man's weak body fell down in an instant. After Lu Zhiyao caught his body, he breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Zhiyao looked around warily and saw that the room next to him was still dark. He pulled the man's
The body was placed on the ground. Lu Zhiyao staggered back two steps, leaning against the tree trunk and staring blankly at the body, not knowing what to do with it.
Although he once practiced martial arts with his father who was a general at home, this was the first time for Lu Zhiyao to kill someone. Just now, it was because the men in black were pressing closer and closer, and the dangerous situation left Lu Zhiyao with no time to be afraid, but now...
…
Lu Zhiyao let out a long sigh and returned to the corpse. He raised his hand and took off his mask, and it turned out to be a strange man. I wonder if the killer Ye Lianrong hired at a high price never showed up, then Ye Lianrong would
What's going to happen over there?
When Lu Zhiyao thought of Ye Lianrong's appearance after defeat, he couldn't help but smile. Shaking his injured hand, Lu Zhiyao turned back to the house and changed his clothes, and began to think about where to hide the body. The weather was getting hotter and hotter.
, the corpse will definitely be discovered if left here, and Lu Zhiyao doesn’t want to live with a corpse every day. Ye Lianrong’s eyes are staring at this place every day, if there is anything wrong, he will be discovered. But if not
If it is left in the Prime Minister's Mansion, where should it be thrown?
Lu Zhiyao was busy alone and didn't notice that there was someone outside the yard, watching her silently. Ling Yi still didn't get over the shock after Lu Zhiyao returned to the room. He immediately turned back and left.
Yi stood outside Lin Yinan's door with a complicated mood and knocked on his door.
It was supposed to be time to sleep, but Lin Yinan's reaction and voice made Ling Yi feel like he hadn't slept at all. Ling Yi pushed the door open and walked in. He came to the bed and looked at Lin Yinan staring sleepily.
Ling Yi asked himself, "What happened?" Ling Yi whispered everything he saw with his own eyes.
Lin Yinan should have thought that if Ling Yi dared to come to see him at this time, there must be something important. But this...
"Are you sure it's Lu Zhiyao?" Lin Yinan's face was covered with doubt. Seeing Ling Yi nodding with great certainty, Lin Yinan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and then said meaningfully: "I didn't expect that this Lu family
The eldest lady really hides her secrets."
Even the most low-level killer in Feihe Tower cannot be dealt with by just anyone. It's interesting that Lu Zhiyao was able to take down that killer.
"Go and call Xia Han." Lin Yinan suddenly got up and got out of bed, put on his robe, and ordered Ling Yi.
"Now?"
"Otherwise?" Lin Yinan asked rhetorically without answering, sitting on a chair and waiting for Ling Yi to bring someone over.
Xia Han was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up by someone knocking on the door. Looking at Ling Yi outside the door, and hearing him say that the Eighth Prince wanted to see him, Xia Han couldn't help but become afraid. What did he want from him in the middle of the night?
thing?!
Xia Han was uneasy, but she didn't dare not go. She lowered her head and followed Ling Yi. The moment Xia Han walked into Lin Yinan's room, she shuddered involuntarily.
Xia Han walked up to Lin Yinan and slowly raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her. This was the first time she saw the Eighth Prince. Even the time he saved her before, she never saw his face.
Xia Han had met the Seventh Prince Lin Yixiang before, and they said that the Eighth Prince was the Seventh Prince's younger brother. At first glance, they did have some similarities, but upon closer inspection, they were completely different.
"Lu Zhiyao, do you know him?" Lin Yinan asked directly, ignoring Xia Han's eyes sizing him up.
"Lu Zhiyao?" Xia Han didn't expect him to ask her this question. She was stunned for a moment and then replied: "I've heard her name, but it doesn't count as knowing her."
"Then do you know what is the relationship between your sister Xia Yao and her?"
"My sister seldom leaves the house on weekdays. Even when she does go out... she is always with the Seventh Prince. I have never heard my sister mention this Lu Zhiyao's name. I think they don't know her either."
Xia Han knew nothing about Lu Zhiyao, but Lu Zhiyao once told Lin Yinan that she knew a lot about the Xia family and had a good relationship with Xia Yao. One of the two people must have lied.
, so, which one is it?
Lin Yinan glanced at Xia Han's scared look and said in a low voice: "Ling Yi, send her back."
Lin Yinan asked Xia Han a few words before letting her go, which made Xia Han a little confused. After Ling Yi sent Xia Han away, he turned back and heard Lin Yinan order him to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to help Lu Zhiyao deal with it.
After the corpse, Ling Yi asked in confusion: "Why?"
It is better to do less than to do more. This has always been Lin Yinan's principle of doing things. But this time, he clearly knew that Lu Zhiyao was a trouble, but he still stayed close to him, which made Ling Yi very puzzled.
"Master, it will be very difficult for Feihe Tower to pursue this matter. I think it is best for us not to get involved."
"I have my own sense of proportion." Lin Yinan stood up and walked to the window, leaned against the wall and looked at the night sky outside. After a moment of silence, he said to Ling Yi behind him: "Since he is heading towards Lu Zhiyao, it must be Ye
The person the Ye family is looking for can be considered my enemy, so this favor will not be in vain. Not to mention..."
Lin Yinan suddenly paused, as if he remembered something, and chuckled: "I can't take thousands of taels of silver for nothing."
Ling Yi couldn't understand the meaning of Lin Yinan's words, so he had no choice but to go out and head towards the Prime Minister's Mansion. Lin Yinan watched Ling Yi leave, sighed quietly, and murmured to himself: "I thought it was just a man.
Disobedient little rabbit, I didn’t expect this rabbit to bite people, it’s quite scary.”
Lu Zhiyao had just worked hard to hide the body and clean up the blood stains in the yard. Before he could take a breath, he received another uninvited guest.
Lu Zhiyao stood tensely, looked at Ling Yi in front of him, blinked, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Ling Yi didn't have time to say polite words to Lu Zhiyao. He looked around her room. Ling Yi frowned and asked, "Where is the body? Where is it hidden?"
Ling Yi's words made Lu Zhiyao stop breathing. How did he know? Lu Zhiyao looked at Ling Yi with a gloomy look. Regret and regret suddenly ran through her body. It was all her fault that there was someone else present just now.
Didn't even find it!
"Did you send this person?" Lu Zhiyao stared into Ling Yi's eyes and asked coldly.
"Miss, you are overthinking. If our master really wanted to kill you, he would definitely not send that kind of trash." Ling Yi smiled slightly and said with a bit of arrogance: "It was the Eighth Prince who asked me to help you dispose of the body.
As for the reason, you can ask him yourself."
Is Lin Yinan willing to show his courtesy and take the initiative to help him dispose of the body? Lu Zhiyao thought about Lin Yinan's face and felt that he would not be such a good person. So the reason why he helped him could only be because he had other purposes. Besides, Ling Yi was late at night
Showing up at the Prime Minister's Mansion in the middle of the night is not a normal thing.
"He sent you to spy on me?" Lu Zhiyao's heart sank. He didn't know how many days he had been living under Lin Yinan's eyes.
"I just followed the killer here." Ling Yi pulled the body out in the direction of Lu Zhiyao's finger, looked at Lu Zhiyao deeply, and said with some confusion: "The Eighth Prince said
, he can’t take thousands of taels of silver for nothing.”
Ling Yi's words made Lu Zhiyao smile immediately, but the smile was a little sarcastic. "If you don't have money and still want to ask your master for help, it will be harder than climbing to the sky."
Ling Yi took the body away, which was regarded as removing a thorn in Lu Zhiyao's heart. But the distant water can't solve the near fire, who knows what else Lin Yinan is planning? What Lu Zhiyao has solved now is Ye Lianrong.
She wanted to use a killer to kill her. If she failed this time, she would probably become angry and deal with her again. The more this happened, the more urgent Lu Zhiyao needed to find a backer. Lin Yinan took action at this time,
Do you want to tell yourself that he is willing to be your backer?
Lu Zhiyao struggled all night and couldn't fall asleep. At dawn the next day, Yudie and Wanyue looked at Lu Zhiyao's tired expression and asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Are you sick?"
"It's okay." Lu Zhiyao smiled weakly and said, "Pay more attention to the situation with the Second Madam today. If there is anything wrong, tell me immediately."
Yudie and Wanyue looked at each other, wondering what had happened. They nodded in agreement to Lu Zhiyao, and the two of them left the room. Lu Zhiyao freshened up, stood in the yard and stretched without caring about his appearance.
With his head facing the dazzling sunlight, Lu Zhiyao smiled bitterly and whispered alone: "It's not necessarily a good thing that he's not dead."
Ye Lianrong got up early in the morning. Yesterday, Ye Shengnan sent someone to deliver news, saying that the killer had arrived and would take action in the evening. Therefore, Ye Lianrong spent the whole night in a state of nervousness and excitement, and she hardly did anything.
After sleeping well and getting dressed, Ye Lianrong asked her maid to go to Lu Zhiyao's yard to find out the news. She was anxiously waiting for the news that Lu Zhiyao was dead, but...
"What did you say?!" Ye Lianrong stood up and slapped the table. Seeing the maid in front of her shrinking her neck in fear of her actions, Ye Lianrong asked loudly: "Is Lu Zhiyao okay?!"
"Go back to Madam, she, she is indeed fine. She is talking and laughing with the maids in the yard. She doesn't look like she is sick."
What's going on? Didn't the killer come last night?
Ye Lianrong bit her lower lip, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. She called Yuechan over, and Ye Lianrong asked her to find Ye Shengnan. After meeting Ye Shengnan, Ye Lianrong said dissatisfied: "Brother, didn't you say that the killer was killed yesterday?
Will you take action? This Lu Zhiyao is still alive now, how on earth did you do it?!"
