As soon as Lin Yunlong said his words, Lin Yinan, who was mentioned by him, couldn't help but be stunned. Because before this, Lin Yunlong had never mentioned this matter to him, not even a word.
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yinan in confusion, but all he could see was Lin Yinan's tense profile. Looking at Nangong Lingfeng over there, his lips were pressed tightly together, and his whole person was in a stiff state. Lu Zhiyao
You know, it was because he was trying hard to control the anger in his heart.
Lin Yunlong's words were so abrupt that all the ministers sitting below looked at each other and did not dare to breathe so boldly. Some people had been rumoring before that the emperor summoned General Nangong back for other purposes, but now it seems that it is not that at all.
Something happened.
Lin Mubai was also at the scene. After hearing Lin Yunlong's words, he smiled slightly and sat there as if nothing happened, drinking glass after glass of wine in front of him, waiting for what someone would say next.
"Don't dare." Nangong Lingfeng was silent for a long time, and when he could no longer speak, he finally spoke in a low voice and said these two words.
Looking at Lin Yunlong with hazy eyes, Lin Yunlong seemed to be very satisfied with his answer. But Nangong Lingfeng then continued: "I dare not resist the order, but I am still unwilling."
He is too old to lead troops in war? The emperor's reason for abolishing his military power is too far-fetched and absurd, right?
"Oh? If that's the case, then my beloved, please come to me and tell me your dissatisfaction after you retire from the court tomorrow. It's already late today, and I have to rest."
Lin Yunlong's smile disappeared in front of everyone. Lu Zhiyao withdrew his gaze after he walked out of the hall, silently sighing in his heart that the emperor's move was really cruel. If he talked to Nangong Lingfeng in private,
Forget it, in front of so many people, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of General Nangong? Fortunately, the queen was so happy before, and some people spread the good news that General Nangong will regain power. Now it seems
, all this is really ridiculous. But when he thought about the fact that the matter involved his own family, Lu Zhiyao's mood of gloating and watching the fun became restrained.
Sure enough, after Lin Yunlong left, Nangong Lingfeng's sharp eyes were aimed at Lin Yinan without hesitation, and his cold eyes seemed to want to eat him alive before he would give in.
Lin Yinan took a few mouthfuls of food calmly, then turned to look at Lu Zhiyao. He asked softly: "Go home?"
"good."
Lu Zhiyao did not hesitate and nodded immediately. The two of them had just stood up to leave, and Lin Mubai over there also stood up and asked to go back together with the two of them.
Lin Mubai had intended to side with Lin Yinan a long time ago. Now coupled with the emperor's decision, the situation has become very clear. Even if the fourth prince died, the prince still did not get any benefits. On the contrary
The eighth prince took advantage of this opportunity to ascend to the throne.
The malicious glances stabbed the backs of Lin Yinan and the three of them. After finally getting away from there, Lin Yinan sighed leisurely: "Today's meal was really hard to eat."
Lin Mubai chuckled softly after hearing Lin Yinan's emotion, "You didn't know about this before?"
"My father never mentioned it to me, and I never thought he would do this." Lin Yinan's eyes darkened. What did Lin Yunlong mean by this? He wanted everyone on Lin Yichen's side to understand that he was on the same boat as the emperor.
Of?
After separating from Lin Mubai, Lin Yinan chose to take Lu Zhiyao back to the Eight Emperors Mansion. In the dead of night, the two of them intertwined their fingers and didn't say much along the way, just walking forward quietly.
Different from the calmness of the two of them, Nangong Lingfeng who stayed in the palace was simply manic to a certain extent. Queen Nangong Liu Xi's face had been gloomy after the emperor said those words. Due to her face, she could not say anything and pretended
After sitting for a while, Nangong Liuxi walked away with a forced smile.
Lin Yichen sat until the banquet was over, and then left together with Lin Yixiang. Nangong Nuo'er had followed Nangong Lingfeng out and went to the Queen's side. Lin Yichen and Lin Yixiang returned to the Prince's Palace, looked at each other, and Lin Yixiang was the first to speak.
"Prince, the plan cannot be delayed any longer."
"Yes." Lin Yichen sighed and said with a sneer: "Father really doesn't like me."
Lin Yichen took off his robe tiredly, then looked at Lin Yixiang, "You go back first and come back tomorrow. I have something I want you to do."
Lin Yixiang nodded, thinking about another thing that no one knew. That night, everyone seemed to have experienced a smokeless war, and returned to their homes in fear.
In the main hall, Nangong Lingfeng's face was livid, and he was still frightened.
After returning to the Eighth Emperor's Mansion, Lu Zhiyao asked Lin Yinan what he thought. But Lin Yinan just answered her that the boat would go straight to the bridge and the emperor would always find an opportunity to explain it to him, so there was no need to waste energy now.
Think about those.
To a certain extent, Lin Yinan is also a lazy person sometimes.
But the first person called by the emperor was not Lin Yinan, but Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao was called away by people sent by the emperor at noon the next day. Lin Yinan was in the study at this time, and a long time had passed since he learned that Lu Zhiyao had left.
Ling Yi is not at the house today, because Lin Yinan is with Lu Zhiyao, and Su Shi and others are also with Chu Ziqian, and they have not secretly lurked near the Eighth Emperor's Mansion to protect Lu Zhiyao's safety. Lu Zhiyao often visits the palace recently.
Go, the emperor had sent someone to tell her before, so even if the servants in the house saw Lu Zhiyao going out with their own eyes, they didn't think much about it.
Lin Yinan walked to the room and found no trace of Lu Zhiyao. He casually asked Yudie beside him, and her answer was that Lu Zhiyao had entered the palace.
"Did the emperor send someone here?" Lin Yinan asked with his eyes trembling.
"Yes, it happened half an hour ago. Madam will be back soon."
What happened last night, Lin Yunlong didn't send anyone to find him, but called Lu Zhiyao. Why?!
Lu Zhiyao followed the eunuch beside Lin Yunlong out of the Eighth Emperor's Mansion and got on the sedan waiting outside. He was also wondering why the emperor was looking for him. When he accidentally opened the curtains and saw the unfamiliar scenery outside,
She is already far away from the boundaries of the Eighth Emperor's Mansion.
"Eunuch, where are we going?" Lu Zhiyao knew very well that this was not the way to the palace. She sat up straight and alertly, and she talked to the servant outside and asked, but the servant was just perfunctory.
answer.
"We'll find out when the Eighth Princess arrives."
Will you know when you get there? Lu Zhiyao frowned dissatisfied, "Didn't you say we were going to the palace? If the emperor didn't want to see me, then there would be no need for me to come this time, right?"
Feeling that something was wrong, Lu Zhiyao loudly ordered the slave to stop the sedan, and the slave obediently agreed. The moment Lu Zhiyao came out of the sedan and stood with her feet on the ground, she heard the eunuch behind her.
He said to her in a unique feminine voice: "I have wronged the Eighth Princess."
Before Lu Zhiyao could reflect what he meant, he was knocked unconscious by the eunuch's blow. The speed and strength were just right. If one point was missing, the effect would not be achieved. If one point was exceeded, Lu Zhiyao would be injured.
Body.
"You guys carry the sedan back to the palace." Holding Lu Zhiyao's soft body, he looked at the other servants who were following him and said, then he picked up Lu Zhiyao, walked a few steps forward and then jumped up.
, the figures of the two people quickly disappeared into the wind, out of sight.
After settling Lu Zhiyao, he returned to the palace and told Lin Yunlong about the matter. Lin Yunlong smiled with satisfaction and said, "Go and call me Lao Ba."
Lin Yinan did not wait to return to Lu Zhiyao, but waited for Lin Yunlong's call. He came to Lin Yunlong expressionlessly. Lin Yinan looked around the empty room and asked directly: "I heard that my father sent someone
Did you bring Zhiyao here?"
Lin Yunlong smiled without denying it and said, "You are too concerned about this Lu Zhiyao."
"I am the eighth prince and she is the eighth concubine. Is there anything wrong with me being attracted to her?" Lin Yinan thought Lin Yunlong's words were a bit funny. "Father, where is she?"
After Lin Yunlong paused for a moment, he answered Lin Yinan's question directly. "She is no longer in the capital, but don't worry, she is in a very safe place. After you do something good for me, I will let you see that she is safe and sound.
she."
The atmosphere in the room cooled down after Lin Yunlong finished speaking. Lin Yinan secretly clenched his fists in his sleeves, but his face still looked calm.
He stood there upright, looking into Lin Yunlong's eyes neither humble nor arrogant. Lin Yunlong was clearly threatening him. If he didn't obey, Lu Zhiyao would be in danger.
Lin Yinan had always thought that Lu Zhiyao was safe by his side, but who could have imagined that just today, just an hour ago, she was taken away under his own eyes, and in an honest and aboveboard manner.
's father.
"Before you touched her, did you ever think about asking me if I would answer?"
This was the first sentence Lin Yinan said after the silence, and it also made Lin Yunlong feel the anger and dissatisfaction hidden in his son's body at this time.
"Do you need it?" Lin Yunlong still asked with a smile.
"Isn't it necessary?" Lin Yinan also smiled slightly, "I hope my father can keep his word. If anything happens to her, none of us will be in trouble."
"Are you threatening me?"
This was the first time Lin Yinan said such words to Lin Yunlong, and he forced the false smile back on Lin Yunlong's face.
"I don't dare, and it's not just me, everyone around you, father, doesn't dare to do this." Lin Yinan turned around and walked towards the door of the room, "Just send someone to notify me of whatever you want me to do.
