Lu Zhiyao looked back at Lin Yinan uneasily, "You came out alone?"
"Yeah." Lin Yinan sighed with a helpless expression, "It would be easy to go out secretly to do other things, but it's a pity that I'm here to see you, so it's inconvenient to bring it with me."
Lu Zhiyao smiled and understood the meaning of Lin Yinan's words. He, the emperor, was deceived and made many people feel uncomfortable. If people knew that he stayed up late at night and wasted his energy to come back to see her, he didn't know what he would say in private.
Come.
Lin Yinan hugged Lu Zhiyao from behind. Although he said he would not leave until she slept, it was precisely because he was here that Lu Zhiyao's body was always tense and he could not sleep. Fortunately, Lin Yinan had a good temper, so he
Then stay with her. Seeing that the sky turned white, Lin Yinan slowly stood up, took a deep look at the person who was breathing steadily and fell asleep, and left slowly.
The more barking a dog usually does, the less painful it will be when it bites people. Vicious dogs that tend to bite people half to death are usually very quiet, just staring at you with a pair of eyes, waiting for you to get close to them.
Sometimes, it will bite you until all the flesh on your body is bitten off.
This is what Lin Yixiang suddenly remembered after meeting Lin Yinan again.
This was the first time the two met alone after Lin Yinan ascended the throne. Although Lin Yixiang wanted to ask him, "Don't you disdain the throne? Why did you sit on it?" But after thinking about it, he held back, because what would Lin Yinan do?
Lin Yixiang had already guessed the answer.
The late emperor's edict was there, and Lin Yinan would never give up such a good excuse. It was impossible to find a flaw in Lin Yinan, and at this time, it was impossible to find out his "weakness"
There is no chance for flaws.
Lin Yinan's only weakness was Lu Zhiyao. This was the conclusion Lin Yixiang came to after going through many things. Lin Yinan was not with Lu Zhiyao at this time, but he left all the masters from Su Shi with Lu Zhiyao, so that
The Eight Emperors' Mansion, inside and out, was safer than when he was there.
Lin Yinan's meaning could not be more obvious, but Lin Yixiang could keep his composure at this time. Good things come to pass, and Lin Yinan's health is also a problem. When the time comes, no one will suspect anything even if Lin Yinan is dead, because he is well known for his "frailness"
of.
Many plans were accumulated in Lin Yixiang's mind, just waiting for the opportunity to come. He did not realize how obvious his murderous intention towards Lin Yinan was at this time. The desire for power and betrayal made Lin Yixiang a little confused.
When the new emperor ascends the throne, there will definitely be big disturbances in the court. It is not surprising that the person who used to side with Lin Yinan will rise to the top. Lu Yuanzheng is still the prime minister, and his position is still stable. Ye Zhihua has not lost, and his position is even higher than before.
Higher.
He attracted those who should be attracted, but there was no reason for those who should be eliminated to stay. The first person Lin Yinan brought out to scare the monkeys was Han Mu, the Minister of Punishment.
Lin Yinan had always remembered Han Mu's involvement in Xia Han's affairs and taking advantage of the Gu family to help deal with the Chu family's affairs. He could not find a reason to show mercy to Han Mu. And Lin Yinan was solving Han Mu's matter.
It surprised everyone.
Han Mu has been working hard in the officialdom for so many years, and being able to become the Minister of the Ministry of Justice is not just luck. He is greedy, but he can also tell which ones will be safe if he is greedy, and which ones will cause trouble.
.And he didn’t keep any of the money he had received over the years at home. He kept all the money he kept around him, including the jade he loved, and he hid it in other places.
Han Mu was also in business privately, but the business he was doing was different from that of the Chu family and the Gu family. What he was doing was a brothel.
Han Mu used the money sent by others to open many brothels, including those in the capital, Xuncheng, and even at the border. His cronies were in charge of them in every place, and his jade treasures were also
They are scattered and hidden in those places, and only a small amount of the best ones are kept in the mansions in the capital.
How long has Lin Yinan been on the throne? Only a few days. But not only did he find out these things about Han Mu, he also held a lot of jaw-dropping evidence to prove that Han Mu knew the law and broke the law, bent the law for personal gain, and even joined forces with Nangong Lingfeng and Qing Ming.
Collusion with the other side of the country has resulted in the loss of innocent lives.
The mixture of real and fake made Han Mu feel despair.
When did he get involved in the Qingming Kingdom's affairs? Lin Yinan did a great job in framing the blame, because even if he didn't mention the Qingming Kingdom's affairs, Han Mu's other accounts were enough to make him lose his head. This extra crime
Not much, but this crime is a lot. What can Han Mu say?
The first person to be beheaded was the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. How could the junior officials below who had made mistakes not be afraid? But Lin Yinan stopped taking action at this time.
Lin Yinan's fierce methods made people have to be convinced and afraid. Lin Yixiang watched with cold eyes. He had already heard about the Gu family and the Chu family from Li Yuzhen, so Lin Yixiang felt that Lin Yinan wanted to kill Han Mu for more than a day or two. Otherwise, it would have been a day or two.
Where did all the evidence come from? I'm afraid that when Han Mu intervened in Xia Han's matter, Lin Yinan had already secretly started investigating him.
Lin Yinan finished what needed to be done in the shortest possible time, and then took Lu Zhiyao into the palace.
Lu Zhiyao had been greeted in advance. The day before entering the palace, she left the Eighth Emperor's Mansion in disguise, accompanied by Chu Ziqian, Su Shi and Su Mozi, and wandered around the capital for a whole day.
It would be impossible to be so leisurely and comfortable again in the future. Lu Zhiyao himself understood this, so he went to all the places he should go and looked at the places he shouldn't go.
When passing by Liu Mansion, Lu Zhiyao suddenly wanted to see Liu Yiyu, his once best friend.
Liu Shengyuan and his wife were horrified by Lu Zhiyao's arrival. They knelt down to greet him. However, they heard Lu Zhiyao smile and say, "Master Liu, there is no need to pay such a big courtesy. I just came to see Yiyu."
Lu Zhiyao and Liu Yiyu did not have a big friendship, but he came to see Liu Yiyu in person on the eve of entering the palace. What does it mean?
No one could figure it out, but Lu Zhiyao just wanted to see her, to see this woman who could neither live nor die.
Liu Yiyu just hoped for the best, but never got anything. She lay quietly on the bed, closed her eyes, and breathed weakly, as if she had passed away.
Hearing the footsteps, Liu Yiyu opened her eyes. After seeing that it was Lu Zhiyao, Liu Yiyu's face showed a look of fear that she hadn't seen in a long time.
Seeing her look like this, Lu Zhiyao wanted to hide but couldn't move, so he smiled, sat beside the bed, and said to her, "Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you today."
She didn't want to kill her, because in Lu Zhiyao's opinion, the current state was the most painful for Liu Yiyu. Moreover, Xuanyuan Junfan had also revealed to Lu Zhiyao before that Liu Yiyu's life also had a limit.
Half a year, she can only live half a year at most.
"I came here today to tell you some good news. The eighth prince has become the emperor. Are you happy for me?" Lu Zhiyao leaned on the back of his chair and looked at Liu Yiyu with slightly squinted eyes.
Liu Yiyu's hands tightly grasped the sheets, and her eyes glanced elsewhere from time to time, looking for other people. After hearing Lu Zhiyao say that Lin Yinan had become the emperor, Liu Yiyu shed tears and was so scared.
"I forgot, you can't speak." Lu Zhiyao sighed regretfully. Liu Yiyu now always makes her feel that things are different.
Lu Zhiyao stayed in Liu Yiyu's room for less than half an hour and came out. When Liu Shengyuan and Pan Wenhua saw her coming out, their hind legs almost went weak and they couldn't stand. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyao didn't say anything.
Then he took the people and left again.
The whole day passed by walking around. After dinner in the evening, Lu Zhiyao lay down early. His lazy state made Su Mozi who was accompanying him feel something was wrong.
"Zhiyao, you seem very tired recently?" Su Mozi tilted her head and asked Lu Zhiyao on the bed.
"It's not that I'm tired, I'm just too lazy to move and want to sleep." Seeing that Su Mozi was chatting with him, Lu Zhiyao sat up with his body propped up. "There's nothing to do, people are lazy."
Lu Zhiyao smiled mockingly to himself, but Su Mozi was thinking something different from her.
Su Mozi stood up and walked to Lu Zhiyao's side, looked at Lu Zhiyao with a strange expression and then took her arm.
When Lu Zhiyao saw Su Mozi's actions, his heart skipped a beat. He quickly guessed what Su Mozi wanted to do. Thinking back to his previous experiences, Lu Zhiyao was also a little stunned.
Probably, no...?
After a while, Su Mozi verified what she had thought.
Sighing heavily, Su Mozi looked at Lu Zhiyao helplessly. "Didn't you notice at all?"
Lu Zhiyao shook his head honestly, "No..."
"Yi, not even the emperor?"
"Um……"
Su Mo Zi's index finger gently touched Lu Zhiyao's forehead and said, "I'm so confused about the Emperor and Queen. Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with your body. You can sleep if you want."
Lu Zhiyao looked down at her belly in disbelief. The last loss was still unforgettable, and just thinking about it made her heartache.
"Stop looking and go to sleep."
Lu Zhiyao stared blankly at his belly, and from time to time glanced at Su Mozi in disbelief, which made Su Mozi couldn't help laughing.
If Lin Yinan knew this news, he would probably be extremely happy.
"Go to the palace tomorrow and tell the emperor. He must have been waiting for this day for a long time."
Su Mozi said softly, and then exited Lu Zhiyao's room. Lu Zhiyao sat there for a while and then lay down, his hands never leaving his lower abdomen, as if he could feel the little life in his body.
She was so confused sometimes. After sleeping for so many days in a row, she just thought she was getting lazy and didn't think about it at all.
The child, her and Lin Yinan's child.
Just thinking about it, Lu Zhiyao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
