"I just came to see you. I didn't expect you to have so much to say." Lin Yunlong smiled slightly, not being put in a bad mood by the aggressive Lu Zhiyao.
Does this mean he talks too much? Lu Zhiyao thought about how many words he had said in total, curled his lips and became silent.
Lin Yunlong looked at Lu Zhiyao, who was full of energy. It seemed that the detention of the past few days had not done anything to her. Lu Zhiyao let Lin Yunlong look at her. After the eunuch outside came in, she silently moved aside.
Move your place and plan to sit down after these two people go out.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming?" Li Ming glanced at Lu Zhiyao and said softly to Lin Yunlong.
Lu Zhiyao could hear some suspicion in his words. This place is really not far from the palace, right?
"If you have nothing to do, come and take a look." Lin Yunlong walked to Lu Zhiyao and sat on the stool Lu Zhiyao planned to sit on, causing Lu Zhiyao to take a big step to the side reflexively.
Lin Yunlong was looking sideways outside, so he didn't notice Lu Zhiyao's reaction. As if he was looking for someone, he asked Li Ming: "Where is the person?"
"Back to the emperor, why is he sleeping? I'm going to call him to see you right now?"
"Forget it." Lin Yunlong thought about He Xiaobai's temper and directly rejected Li Ming's proposal. "You go out first, I will sit down for a while and then leave."
Li Ming nodded, looked at Lu Zhiyao warily again, and then slowly exited the room, as if Lu Zhiyao would do something to Lin Yunlong in his absence.
Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yunlong were the only two people left in the room again. Lin Yunlong coughed slightly, drawing Lu Zhiyao's eyes over, and then pointed to the stool beside him and motioned for her to sit down and talk.
Lu Zhiyao was not restrained and walked over and sat down. After meeting Lin Yunlong's gaze, she listened to Lin Yunlong's thoughtful words: "My son, it seems that he really likes you."
"Does the Emperor...really care if the emperor's son likes someone else?" Lu Zhiyao hesitated for a moment before asking.
"Oh? What do you mean by this?" Lin Yunlong was very interested in Lu Zhiyao's words. Even if he knew that Lu Zhiyao did not dare to say anything more, he could guess that even if she said it, it would be something he didn't like to hear.
But Lin Yunlong still wanted her to say it. Just like some people clearly know that the outcome will be bad, but they like to predict it in advance.
Lu Zhiyao felt a little unbearable after being stared at by Lin Yunlong's sharp gaze for a while. She had to admit that although Lin Yunlong sometimes smiled like a fox and did not do very pleasing things, as a
Everything that an emperor should have is still lacking in him. Those dark and deep eyes may be the only thing that looks like him to Lin Yinan. After looking at it for a long time, people will inevitably feel a little guilty, as if everything in their hearts cannot be seen.
Everything will be seen through.
Lu Zhiyao turned away and avoided Lin Yunlong's gaze. The room was silent for a long time before Lu Zhiyao's voice slowly sounded.
"It's nothing, I just feel that...the emperor is a bit bullying."
Lin Yunlong really didn't expect Lu Zhiyao to say such a sentence. He couldn't help but smile, and he felt more and more that this little girl was a bit interesting. She was the first person who dared to say that he was bullying in front of him.
Two.
"How do you say this?"
"Whether it's General Nangong or the prince, whatever the emperor wants to do to them, in my opinion, it should be done. Because they had the intention to rebel from the beginning. But what about the eighth prince?" Lu Zhiyao was angry.
He swallowed the words "General Xia" that were already on his lips, "What did he do again?"
After all, he was his own son. Lu Zhiyao couldn't think of any reason why Lin Yunlong could be so cruel to Lin Yinan. From the initial poisoning to the subsequent events to today's use of her to force him, could all this be just because of Lin Yinan's
Just a mother? If so, then why did he choose to let Lin Yinan be born in the first place? Is he torturing himself or wanting revenge on someone?!
"Are you complaining to Lao Ba?"
"Yes." Lu Zhiyao nodded firmly, "Don't you think so, the Emperor?"
Lin Yinan had no intention of rebelling. Lu Zhiyao had asked him many times, and his answer was always the same. He didn't want to be the emperor. But what about now? Was he the one who caused all this, or was it because he had a father like Lin Yunlong?
Emperor, a father? Lin Yunlong now feels uncomfortable being plotted by his own son and his subordinates. Has he ever thought about how Lin Yinan feels in his heart for so many years? Has he ever thought about how Lin Yinan survived alone for so many years?
Lu Zhiyao has never experienced this, so she dare not categorically affirm Lin Yinan's thoughts. But she knows that if it were her, if she was in pain every time she was poisoned, she would think that the poison was given by her father.
Yes, then she won't be able to bear it. Being hurt by the person who should be the closest to you in this world will be the saddest thing. Why does Lin Yunlong not understand this simple truth?!
Lin Yunlong did not answer Lu Zhiyao's question, but walked directly in front of Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao also stood up quickly. When she saw Lin Yunlong's shoulders move and he was about to reach out to her, she subconsciously hid.
Her hair was loose and scattered around her waist. Lu Zhiyao opened her eyes wide and looked at her hairpin in Lin Yunlong's hand. Lin Yunlong's smile made her hair stand on end.
"I'll take this."
Lin Yunlong didn't say much and walked out of the room step by step. Lu Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief when the door was closed, and slowly sat down against the wall. Thinking of Lin Yunlong's actions just now, Lu Zhiyao frowned.
.
Your Majesty... He knows martial arts? Although it is not strange for the leader of a country to know some kung fu, but why does Lu Zhiyao find it strange?
Lin Yunlong walked out of the long and narrow tunnel. The moment he saw the sun, he was stunned. He looked up at the sun in the sky and maintained that posture for a while before he came back to his senses.
Lin Yinan entered the palace according to the order and came to Lin Yunlong. As time went by, the irritability in his heart only increased. If Liu Lei hadn't stayed in his house and refused to leave, he would not have planned to enter the palace.
This trip.
With a "pop" sound, Lin Yunlong slapped the beaded hairpin in his hand onto the table. Watching Lin Yinan's expression changes intently, he said softly: "Lu Zhiyao said, I bullied you a little too much, what do you think?
?”
Lin Yinan walked over and took the pearl hairpin into his hand. He raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Yunlong. These words really seemed like what Lu Zhiyao could say.
"She is talking nonsense, father, you don't have to take her seriously."
"Really?" Lin Yunlong raised the corner of his mouth, "You can protect her enough."
Lin Yunlong looked at his expressionless son in amusement. Thinking of what Lu Zhiyao said, his heart sank.
There is no doubt that Lin Yinan is the most outstanding among all the princes. Even though he has lived out of Lin Yunlong's sight these years and moved out of the palace alone, Lin Yunlong still knows some of what he has done. If he must be there
If a prince who can inherit the throne is selected now, then Lin Yinan is the best candidate. Even though there are still many remnants of the previous dynasty active in Xia Lai Kingdom, if it is Lin Yinan, Lin Yunlong thought, he might
There will be ways to suppress them.
Just as Lu Zhiyao said, Lin Yunlong had noticed the Nangong family and the prince's desire to rebel a long time ago. It was so early that Lin Yunlong himself was surprised. This country can be said to be the Xia family
and the Nangong family. Without them, Lin Yunlong would not be sitting so firmly on the throne today. If possible, Lin Yunlong would not want the two of them to leave more than anyone else. But things often go against people's wishes.
He had to get rid of the Xia family, and the remaining Nangong family was gradually dissatisfied with their current status and rights. They actually paid attention to the prince, trying to control more through the prince. Faced with this situation, Lin
What can Yunlong do?
Lin Yunlong has never liked to trust others. Even if he is a slave who has been around him for a long time, he will always be cautious. There are reasons and reasons for doing so. It is true that the poison on Lin Yinan's body is his fault, but he
It's not that he doesn't want to solve it, but that he is helpless at this point. No one will be shocked that Lin Yinan can survive to this day. But the more this happens, the more Lin Yunlong feels that his son is too terrible.
Is it better to get rid of Lin Yinan, or keep him by his side for his own use? Should he hand over the throne to him, or choose another prince who can live longer? These questions have come up in Lin Yunlong's mind many times.
, but in the end there is still no answer. He will eventually grow old and die, and he does not want to give the great country he has built to outsiders. How could Lin Yunlong not understand these truths?
"You said, will you find her first, or will I kill her first?" Lin Yunlong suddenly smiled and asked this question. After seeing Lin Yinan's eyes showed a rare fear because of his words
At this time, the smile on Lin Yunlong's lips deepened.
No matter who you are, there will always be weaknesses.
"It's not necessarily a good thing to care so much about a woman." Lin Yunlong said sincerely as a person who has experienced this.
"So what does Father want me to do in exchange for her life?" Lin Yinan asked in a low voice, calmly making Lin Yunlong a little disappointed.
Lin Yunlong sighed, thought for a while and then spoke. "Nangong Lingfeng should have some soldiers who obey his orders. They won't be too many, but they are all good."
"Kill?" Lin Yinan asked.
"what ever."
After Lin Yinan heard his answer, he turned around and left without saying a word. He couldn't stay here for a moment. Lu Zhiyao was right, Lin Yunlong was indeed going too far.
After leaving the room, Liu Lei was still standing outside. When he came forward, Liu Lei was smiling and wanted to say something to Lin Yinan. But before the words came out of his mouth, he heard Lin Yinan say coldly: "
