Ye Shengnan's words made Gu Nuochu stunned for a moment. He quickly thought about who Lu Zhiyao and Lu Zhiqing were, and Gu Nuochu suddenly woke up.
"Impossible!" Gu Nuochu looked at Ye Shengnan firmly and said, "Do you think I'm looking for a beggar on the street for you? People in Feihe Tower can't find the wrong person!"
"It's not up to you whether you can do it or not. Gu Nuochu, let me tell you, I spent so much money. If you don't explain this to me, I won't be able to spare you!"
Ye Shengnan said harsh words in anger, which made Gu Nuochu a little scared. After all, Ye Shengnan's identity and status are there. If the people don't fight with the officials, even if they want to, they will definitely not be able to fight. This is Gu Nuochu, who is a businessman.
It was very clear. Gu Nuochu frowned and watched Ye Shengnan turn around and walk away after finishing his words. He was not in the mood to sleep anymore, so he put on his clothes and left the room.
Although not everyone knew that the killer from Feihe Tower entered the Prime Minister's Mansion late at night and wanted to kill people, after dawn the next day, many people still knew about it. For example, Lin Yixiang, and Lin Yichen.
Lin Yichen was sitting in the garden, gazing at the pond in front of him. His brows were calm and leisurely. When he heard the news brought back by Lin Yixiang, his eyes flashed slightly and he asked, "Who did Lu Yuanzheng offend?"
"The killer doesn't seem to be heading for Lu Yuanzheng." Lin Yixiang looked at Lin Yichen solemnly and said, "The injured person is Lu Yuanzheng's second daughter, Lu Zhiqing. I heard that her face has been completely destroyed."
"Lu Zhiqing?" Lin Yichen turned his head and met Lin Yixiang's eyes, "Do you know who did it?"
"It's not clear yet. I heard that the killer had been taken away by Lan Ruoling and committed suicide on the way. Lin Yinan also sent an imperial doctor to the Prime Minister's Mansion to treat Lu Zhiqing."
Lin Yichen heard Lin Yinan's name and laughed coldly. Looking at Lin Yixiang meaningfully, Lin Yichen said softly: "Your brother seems to be very close to the prime minister's house recently."
Lin Yixiang heard Lin Yichen's voiceover and nodded. He agreed in a low voice, "I will find out about this matter as soon as possible."
"Then why are you still standing here?" Lin Yichen turned his head again, his eyes drifting into the distance.
Lin Yixiang left, left the palace and went straight to Lin Yinan's mansion. When he saw Lin Yinan, Lin Yinan seemed to be planning to leave the mansion somewhere.
"What are you going to do?" Lin Yixiang looked at Lin Yinan's clothes and asked with a chuckle: "Your health seems to be getting better recently?"
"The weather is so good that I just want to go out for a walk. As for my health, it all depends on Jian Yuheng." Lin Yinan walked forward while chatting in a low voice with Lin Yixiang beside him: "Why do you have time to come to me today?
"
Lin Yixiang has always been visiting the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. Lin Yinan didn't expect his brother to really make a special trip just to see him.
"I'm here to ask you about the Prime Minister's Office."
Lin Yixiang asked frankly and directly, making Lin Yinan smile slightly. "The news spread really fast."
"How did you know about this in the first place?" Lin Yixiang looked at Lin Yinan's smile and felt something was wrong. Lin Yinan has been a loner for so many years, and it is rare to see him interacting with any ministers.
Even those veterans who have always supported him can count on both hands the number of times Lin Yinan has visited their residences. Therefore, compared to before, Lin Yinan's recent visits to the prime minister's residence twice in a row will indeed make people feel
There is something fishy.
"It's just a coincidence. Lan Ruoling was patrolling near the Prime Minister's Mansion last night. When she heard the cry for help, she rushed in." Lin Yinan walked for a while, and when he reached the rockery, he leaned on it, squinting his eyes and looking up.
He turned his head, glanced at the bright sun in the sky, and said to Lin Yixiang: "I sent her there."
"Why? Is there anything going on in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Lin Yixiang couldn't wait to find out something from Lin Yinan's mouth, which made Lin Yinan couldn't help laughing. "If I remember correctly, you should be the prince's man. Do you think I will answer if you ask me?"
Lin Yinan's words suddenly changed Lin Yixiang's expression, but Lin Yinan didn't want to embarrass Lin Yixiang. "But forget it, you came here specially, I can't let you go back like this." Lin Yinan changed the topic and continued: "
Lu Yuanzheng came to see me a few days ago. He heard somewhere that the flower-picking thief Chu Ziqian had come to Beijing. So he was worried about the safety of his two daughters, so he came to Lan Ruoling to ask if this was true.
Fake. The two daughters of the Lu family are not ordinary people. It would be bad if they were really ruined by that Chu Ziqian, so I will let Lan Ruoling pass."
"You never worried about other people's affairs before." Lin Yixiang was not satisfied with the answer given by Lin Yinan.
"It's different this time." Lin Yinan met Lin Yixiang's eyes with a smile, "That Lu Zhiyao will become mine at some point, how can I ignore it?"
"You want to marry Lu Zhiyao?!"
"Why are you so surprised?" Lin Yixiang's surprised expression made Lin Yinan feel a little interesting, "Didn't you want me to marry her? What, you regretted it?"
Just because Lin Yinan didn't say it didn't mean that he didn't know. He knew very well what kind of tricks Lin Yichen and Lin Yixiang had done, but he just didn't want to tell them. As for Lu Zhiyao, if they wanted him to marry him, he would marry him. But
If they really want to rely on Lu Zhiyao, the "broom star", to get themselves killed, I'm afraid they will really be disappointed.
"You are not really attracted to that woman, are you?" Lin Yixiang was silent for a while, then hesitantly asked such a sentence, which made Lin Yinan couldn't help laughing.
"She's just a girl without a mother. We are all the same." Lin Yinan's eyes dimmed, her long hair was blown by the wind, and her face was filled with desolate sadness. "Yesterday's killer went to Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiqing and Ye Lianrong happened to be there for some unknown reason. I think the killer might have mistakenly identified the person, or maybe he wanted to kill all the people in the room. In short, there must be some reason that made him panic, so he had to be there.
We started yesterday."
"Who would spend a lot of money to hire a killer just because they want to kill her?" Lin Yixiang didn't quite believe Lin Yinan's words because he felt that Lu Zhiyao was not worth the price.
"It's hard to say." Lin Yinan said to Lin Yixiang thoughtfully: "Perhaps there are people in the prime minister's mansion who are really afraid that she will become the eighth imperial concubine and threaten him? After all, the person who proposed that Lu Zhiyao marry me is not
Others, but the dignified prince. After all, I think that if this happens, you and the prince should also bear some responsibility. Then Lu Zhiqing may not be able to see anyone in the future, let alone get married. "
Although Lin Yichen had previously intended to accept Lu Zhiqing as the crown prince, after what happened, Lin Yinan did not think that Lin Yichen would do that again. Lin Yixiang had the same idea.
Lin Yixiang left after talking to Lin Yinan for a while. As soon as Lin Yixiang stepped out of the house door, Ling Yi appeared in front of Lin Yinan instantly.
"Master, there is something I don't understand." Ling Yi looked at Lin Yinan's profile. After Lin Yinan signaled him to ask, Ling Yi asked in a low voice: "Why do you want to help the seventh prince?"
Although the seventh prince had always been on the opposite side of Lin Yinan, every time something happened, even if Lin Yinan didn't help him, she never felt sorry for him.
Lin Yinan looked at Ling Yi silently, and finally shook his head with a smile, not intending to answer him. "It's a rare good weather, come walk with me everywhere."
If Lin Yinan usually took a walk, he would always be at the residence, but this time, he went directly to the prime minister's residence.
The arrival of Lin Yinan forced the people in the Prime Minister's Office to change their views on Lu Zhiyao again, and made Ye Lianrong hate Lu Zhiyao even more with gnashing of teeth.
Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao, who was bowing his head submissively, and thought of something, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. This woman seemed weak, but she didn't expect that she would be merciless when she moved her hands.
"Second Miss, are you awake?" Lin Yinan turned to look at Lu Yuanzheng and asked.
"I'm awake and resting in my room." Lu Yuanzheng sighed heavily when he thought of Lu Zhiqing.
"Let Jian Yuheng live in the house during this period. If anything happens, he can be taken care of." Lin Yinan walked around Lu Zhiyao's room and walked to the yard. Looking at Lu Yuanzheng's particularly haggard face,
Lin Yinan coughed twice and said, "Lan Ruoling will also arrange for people to be near the Prime Minister's Mansion to protect your safety."
"This time, the Eighth Prince is really helpful. The minister is really..."
"What are you talking about, Prime Minister?" Lin Yinan didn't want to hear the polite words he was tired of hearing, so he interrupted Lu Yuanzheng and said, "Besides, I didn't help you in vain."
Lin Yinan glanced at Lu Yuanzheng's ugly face and smiled silently. Looking in the direction of Lu Zhiyao, Lin Yinan nodded to her and said, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Lu Zhiyao walked to Lin Yinan's side obediently and followed Lin Yinan. When the two of them reached a deserted place, Lu Zhiyao asked aloud: "What do you want to tell the Eighth Prince?"
"The prince also knows about this, and he is very likely to come to the prime minister's house in the near future."
Lu Zhiyao listened to Lin Yinan's words and tried hard to guess the meaning of his words. He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then Lu Zhiyao asked: "Does the Eighth Prince want to warn me to be careful in my actions and not to hinder you? What if?
If that's the case, please rest assured, Eighth Prince."
"You do know how to think about others." Lin Yinan smiled, and the rare true smile made Lu Zhiyao feel a bit dazzling. "I just want to tell you that even if the people from Feihe Tower die, they will not give up.
