She immediately started to do whatever came to her mind. After getting up from the ground, Li Yuzhen immediately packed her luggage, dug out two pieces of clothes, found her gold and silver jewelry and her private banknotes, and walked around the room twice uneasily, planning
Think about which route you should take and where you should go.
At this point, she just wants to go far away. As for the safety along the way, Li Yuzhen also thinks about it. She must leave the capital as soon as possible, otherwise if the Eighth Princess finds out, she will not be able to reap the benefits.
I'm worried that Prince Luo will regret it and cause trouble for me.
Li Yuzhen thought about it and decided to leave home tonight and go to sleep near the city gate for the night. She remembered that there were two escort agencies nearby. She went to them after dawn and said that she had something to send to other places and would like to give more.
Money, those rough guys won't ask too many questions.
After staying up late at night, Li Yuzhen sneaked out of the room. She left the Gu Mansion through the unguarded back door and trotted toward the city gate.
My heartbeat was about to jump out of my throat. Fortunately, no accidents happened along the way.
After finding an inn and staying in, Li Yuzhen was half asleep and half awake all night. The slightest movement could make her jump out of bed. And it was not only her who didn't sleep well that night, but also Lin Yixiang.
Lin Yixiang has been thinking about Lu Zhiyao all night, and some speculations are constantly swirling in his mind. Logically speaking, there is no reason for Lin Yinan to protect Xia Han so much. Judging from various circumstances, it is quite possible
Maybe it's because of Lu Zhiyao. Why Lu Zhiyao cares so much about the Xia family has always been a mystery in Lin Yixiang's heart. He can't solve it no matter how he tries. Since he can't get the answer from Lin Yinan, Lin Yixiang can only think about it.
Through Lu Zhiyao's mouth, I heard something.
In the early morning, Li Yuzhen pretended to be calm and left the inn and came to the escort agency in her memory. She knew this place because she had been there once with Mr. Gu a few years ago.
It was too early, and there was no reason not to do the door-to-door business. Just as Li Yuzhen thought, she set out the price and said that she had something very important that she wanted to deliver to the destination in person. She hoped that they could send a few people.
Go together.
The price given by Li Yuzhen was very attractive. Half was paid in advance and the rest was paid after arriving at the destination. So it didn't take much time for both parties to reach an agreement.
Li Yuzhen picked three people who claimed to be the best in the escort agency, two men and one woman, and then set off.
In the Gu Mansion, the maid opened Li Yuzhen's room and prepared to wake her up, but she was surprised when no one was found. She quickly ran to the yard to ask other slaves, but no one knew where the lady had gone.
Everyone searched in a wide circle, and time passed. An hour passed in the blink of an eye. They didn't know if Li Yuzhen went out to the store, so they waited again. After waiting until noon, Li Yuzhen was still nowhere to be seen.
.
At this time, Li Yuzhen had already left the capital, passed through Xuncheng, and had gone a long way. Sitting in the carriage, Li Yuzhen's heart sank a little, she was no longer nervous, and she felt sleepy.
. He sat there drowsily, his eyes closing unconsciously.
Lin Yinan didn't know what he was busy with these days, and he often left the Eight Emperors Mansion. Lin Yixiang also seized this opportunity. When Lin Yinan was not with Lu Zhiyao, he spent some money to find a random passerby and handed him a letter.
He asked him to send the letter to the Eight Emperors Mansion for him and give it to Lu Zhiyao.
The guard at the door took the letter in his hand, looked at the back of the child who was only about ten years old and ran away happily, looked at each other, and then handed the letter into Lu Zhiyao's hand.
"You named me?" Lu Zhiyao looked at the nodding guard in confusion, "I understand, you can go out."
"Madam, who would write to you again?" Wan Yue asked curiously while rubbing Lu Zhiyao's shoulders.
"I don't know." Lu Zhiyao waved his hand to her, indicating that she didn't need to rub it now. After opening the letter and looking at it for a few times, Lu Zhiyao's expression changed.
There are not many words in the letter, and the meaning I want to express is very clear.
The other party told Lu Zhiyao that he already knew where Xia Han was hiding and had sent people to guard her. He could take Xia Han's head at any time.
Lin Yinan always felt at ease when doing things, but when it came to his sister, Lu Zhiyao's heart still trembled. This man actually knew that he cared about Xia Han, and asked her to read this letter by name. Knowing that it was a trap, he deliberately led him out.
, but Lu Zhiyao was still moved.
"Wan Yue, keep this letter." Lu Zhiyao handed the folded letter to Wan Yue, "I have to leave the house. If Yi Nan comes back before me, show him this letter.
.”
"Okay, I understand." Wan Yue nodded obediently and followed Lu Zhiyao out. "But madam, do you want to go out by yourself? Do you want me to ask my sister to accompany you?"
"No need, someone will follow."
It was impossible for Lin Yinan to just focus on his own affairs and forget about Lu Zhiyao. He had learned from the past and knew that Lu Zhiyao was not completely safe even in the Eight Emperors Mansion. So when Lin Yinan was not with Lu Zhiyao, someone would definitely be watching.
Far from landing.
By chance, the person responsible for protecting Lu Zhiyao today was none other than Chu Ziqian.
Chu Ziqian was lying on the roof, eating, and paying attention to the movements near the Eighth Emperor's Mansion. After seeing Lu Zhiyao planning to leave the mansion, he jumped to the ground, frowned and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I have something to do. Just follow me. Don't show up unless I call your name. Do you understand?"
Lu Zhiyao acted mysteriously. Chu Ziqian looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Isn't it something dangerous?"
But as soon as he asked, he thought, how could anything Lu Zhiyao do be safe?
"Yes or no. If I guessed correctly, it was Prince Luo's people who wanted to see me. They didn't know what to say to me, but they used this method to find me out." Lu Zhiyao snorted.
He smiled and said, "Let's go, he has an appointment at the east side of the city."
Chu Ziqian nodded, and according to what Lu Zhiyao said, he always kept a distance from her to protect her safety.
Lu Zhiyao came to the place mentioned in the letter, but saw no one. Instead, he found another letter here. He opened it and read it, telling Lu Zhiyao to go to another place.
Lu Zhiyao still smiled, put the letter away, and walked towards the destination. The other party was obviously afraid that Lin Yinan would find this place. Even if Lu Zhiyao didn't take the letter away, someone would definitely come and destroy it after she left.
Lose.
After walking around for a while, they finally arrived at the place. Lu Zhiyao looked at the place and found that he had been there before. This was where Xuanyuan Junfan and others once hid. Whether the other party chose this place intentionally or unintentionally, Lu Zhiyao didn't know, but
The suspicion in my heart towards Lin Yixiang became even more obvious.
Lu Zhiyao opened the door and walked in. There was only a small courtyard surrounded by four rooms, and he didn't know where the people were.
Lu Zhiyao searched one room after another, and finally saw someone in the third room.
As expected, it was someone from Lin Yixiang's side. To be more precise, it was Lin Yixiang himself.
"Your Majesty is really in a good mood to play such a trick."
Lu Zhiyao walked over with a half-smile but sat down opposite Lin Yixiang. He slapped the letter on the table and asked, "Is it interesting? Is it fun?"
"The Eighth Princess didn't seem surprised at all when she saw me."
"There's nothing surprising. If you think about it for a moment, you can roughly guess who did it. Not only can I guess it, I think even Lin Yinan can do it."
"Now that you know I'm looking for you, do you still dare to come here alone?" Lin Yixiang was unmoved by Lu Zhiyao's words and asked with a smile.
"Your Majesty doesn't know how to eat people, so why shouldn't I dare? Tell me, what does Your Majesty want to say to me?"
Lu Zhiyao acted very calmly and did not hide anything about Xia Han.
"You know that I have always been very concerned about the Xia family's affairs, so I know how to use Xia Han to threaten me. Your Majesty, please don't tell me. You just want to chat with me about family matters. It's not convenient because Yi Nan is around. You
If you say that, I definitely can’t stand it.”
"I just want to talk to you about the Xia family." Lin Yixiang didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the topic. "I checked and you have no interaction with Xia Yao before."
"Why do you need to go out of your way to investigate this kind of thing?" Lu Zhiyao was a little surprised, "The prince used to have such a good relationship with Xia Yao. I thought you must know who she knew and who she didn't know, but I didn't expect that the prince would also want to check it out.
You’ll know only after checking.”
Lu Zhiyao teased Lin Yixiang, and then said: "Even if we have no intersection, you can still hear and know some things. As you said, I have nothing to do with the Xia family, but I think I have a little conscience.
People, after knowing what you did to the Xia family, they won’t have a good impression of you, right? I hate the prince because of what happened to the Xia family. Is there anything wrong with me? The prince should not be good enough to let everyone
They all like you, right?"
"What do you know? The Xia family's affairs are not as simple as you think."
"Yes, what do I know?" Lu Zhiyao thought with some distress, "What else do I not know?"
"Looking at you, you seem to know the Xia family very well."
"Your Majesty knows that you should investigate things that are unclear, so how could I not know? Don't forget, I have the Eighth Prince by my side, and he dotes on me so much. I don't think His Majesty will tell me what I want to know.
?”
These words spoken by Lu Zhiyao and the triumphant expression on her face reminded Lin Yixiang of the words "beauties bring disaster".
"Lao Ba is indeed fascinated by you, and I really admire you for this." Gradually, Lin Yixiang's words to Lu Zhiyao became less polite. He wanted to keep talking to someone who hates you and speaks rudely to you.
Lin Yixiang cannot do this kind of thing if he keeps a good attitude and a gentle smile. "What is the purpose of marrying him?"
