Lu Zhiyao left Li Yuzhen and went directly back to the palace. At this time, Xuanyuan Haotian and others had returned. As soon as Lu Zhiyao showed up, Baili Chen took him there, saying that the emperor had something to say to her.
Xuanyuan Haotian wanted to see her as soon as he came back, which was not a good thing for Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao followed him to Xuanyuan Haotian. Xuanyuan Haotian was standing with his hands behind his back, with his back to Lu Zhiyao. Xuanyuan Junfan was standing aside, winking at her silently, as if he wanted to tell her
Be careful what you say.
"Everyone, please go out." Xuanyuan Haotian turned around, looked at Lu Zhiyao, and said to the other two people.
There were only two people left in the room, Lu Zhiyao and Xuanyuan Haotian. When Lu Zhiyao was thinking about what he would do to him, Xuanyuan Haotian suddenly asked, "Has the child been found?"
"No." Lu Zhiyao said in a low voice, "My master has already gone to find him."
"Were those two children kidnapped by Lin Yinan?" Xuanyuan Haotian asked Lu Zhiyao in a positive tone.
"I have no idea."
"Don't you know?" Xuanyuan Haotian asked with a sarcastic smile: "Now I am beginning to wonder whether you are an undercover agent sent by Lin Yinan."
"The Emperor always looks up to me so highly. I thought that my loyalty had been clearly conveyed to the Emperor. It seems that this is not the case."
To be honest, Lu Zhiyao did not see the expression on Xuanyuan Haotian's face that should belong to a defeated person. He was still the same as usual, with a coldness that could repel people thousands of miles away from his bones. He lost to Xuanyuan Haotian.
Lin Yinan should be angry, but Lu Zhiyao couldn't feel a trace of anger in him.
"Your Majesty came to me not just to ask about this, right?"
"It's nothing else, I just want to see what your fake smile looks like." Xuanyuan Haotian answered directly and cheerfully. Lu Zhiyao had expected this, and she would not hear anything good today.
"I can understand that the emperor is in a bad mood, but is he satisfied with what he sees?"
"If I had known it would happen today, it wouldn't have been Lin Yichen but you who hung it up on the city gate." Xuanyuan Haotian sighed with regret, Lu Zhiyao's eyes darkened, but in fact he didn't like to hear what he said.
In this case, could it be that the defeat was entirely due to her? When two countries fight, one of them will lose. What does it have to do with her?
Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and said nothing, but he didn't know that her behavior made Xuanyuan Haotian even more dissatisfied. Lu Zhiyao silently endured his sharp gaze, and gradually he couldn't hold it any longer.
"How about I go to the tower and stay there for two days to let the emperor relieve himself?"
Lu Zhiyao made a considerate suggestion, but it was obvious that her suggestion was not in line with Xuanyuan Haotian's wishes.
"The two children are no longer with you, and the master has also gone to Xia Lai Kingdom. It seems that there is no one here who can restrain you." Xuanyuan Haotian lowered his head and said slowly: "I should always find a way to win.
Once upon a time, are you right?"
"Yes, yes." Lu Zhiyao nodded perfunctorily, "If you lose, you win. This kind of thing is normal."
"Well..." Xuanyuan Haotian raised his eyes and looked at her thoughtfully, and suddenly said without saying anything: "Whether you want to be my concubine or Xuanyuan Junfan's, you choose."
Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, this joke is not funny, why don't we think of something else?"
"Do I seem to be joking with you?" Xuanyuan Haotian looked serious, "Go back and think about it carefully. Come see me tomorrow and tell me the answer."
Lu Zhiyao was sent away by Xuanyuan Haotian like this, and he always felt like he was playing tricks on himself. Will he win if he marries her? Only if he marries a troublemaker like her, will he lose completely, okay? Although Lu Zhiyao also
I don’t want to say this about myself, but no matter what I think, something is wrong.
Xuanyuan Haotian also knows that now that the child is gone and Liao Wuhen is gone, no one can do anything to her. Day by day, if she really gets into trouble, she will have to wait until Liao Wuhen comes back before she can be punished. Xuanyuan Haotian also
Thinking that the child is in Lin Yinan's hands, isn't he worried that she will take this opportunity to run away and never come back? What confidence does he have that she will obey him and let him win?
A bad feeling flashed faintly, and Lu Zhiyao walked out of the room. Xuanyuan Junfan hadn't left yet, as if he was waiting for her on purpose.
Lu Zhiyao walked over, knocked the heavy and hard armor on his body with his hand, and asked, "Isn't it heavy? Or do you still think it looks good in this and can't bear to take it off?"
"I'm trying to save my life, because I'm afraid another Lu Zhiyao will come out of nowhere and kill me."
"What do you mean?" Lu Zhiyao was confused.
The two of them were walking and chatting. Lu Zhiyao asked Xuanyuan Junfan what he had not asked at Xuanyuan Haotian's place.
"I thought this battle would last for several months, but I didn't expect it to end so quickly. Logically speaking, with you and the Emperor here, we shouldn't lose. What's going on?"
Xuanyuan Junfan smiled bitterly, "Didn't you tell us a long time ago that as long as there is Lin Yinan in Xia Lai Kingdom, we won't win?"
"Then he shouldn't have lost so quickly. What happened? Did you hear what the emperor just said? What stimulated him?"
Lu Zhiyao spoke freely in front of Xuanyuan Junfan, and did not intentionally take into account his feelings because of the defeat of Qingming Kingdom.
"I'm stimulated by you." Xuanyuan Junfan replied seriously, "I advise you to stay in the escort team and not run around."
"What...what do you mean?" She hasn't left the mountain for many days in a row. Why is everything being thrown at her?
"Lin Yinan sent someone to pretend to be you, but we suffered a lot of casualties. The emperor must not want to see your face now. This time is not a joke. It would be better if you try to avoid him."
"Send someone to pretend to be me?!" Lu Zhiyao felt incredible, "How is it possible? No one noticed?"
"It was too late when I found out. The fake Lu Zhiyao also had my token and the escort team. Many people were deceived by her."
Lu Zhiyao couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this. So, if she uses these two things to fool people in the future, she won't succeed so easily, right?
Lin Yinan was very daring. He sent an army from the front to attack, and sent some skilled men from the rear to cause trouble. He used poison, drug, arson and other bad tricks. Just Lu Zhiyao's face, I heard that
There were no less than dozens of people seen in one night. Xuanyuan Junfan suspected that there should be more than one person pretending to be Lu Zhiyao that night. And what made Xuanyuan Haotian most angry was that he had also seen one of them. More appropriately
Yes, it seemed that "Lu Zhiyao" came to him on purpose to let him see. That's why Xuanyuan Haotian was able to escape so fast and be so prepared after he realized something was wrong.
"Look at this palace, it seems calm on the surface. Maybe Lin Yinan's people are hiding somewhere." Xuanyuan Junfan looked around and said to Lu Zhiyao with a half-smile: "The emperor mentioned that to you.
Son, this is not a joke."
"What's the point of marrying me?" Lu Zhiyao thought about Lin Yinan and felt that Xuanyuan Haotian was crazy. If what Lin Yinan said to her that night was true and he still had her in his heart, then Xuanyuan Haotian's actions would only make it worse
Provoked him. In Lu Zhiyao's view, Xuanyuan Haotian's decision was by no means rational.
"The emperor always has his reasons for doing this." Xuanyuan Junfan did not reject Lu Zhiyao's idea, but he also had his own opinions. "I told you a long time ago that you would consider marrying me. It's okay now. It's more troublesome.
Big."
"Are you trying to catch a duck?" Lu Zhiyao glared at him displeased, "I just don't want to marry, what can you do to me?"
"We'll find out later." Xuanyuan Junfan smiled strangely.
"You don't have any other plots, do you?"
"What you are asking is very ironic for a defeated person. The person in charge of the overall situation now is Lin Yinan, and his men are everywhere watching. What other small tricks can we do? Girl, listen to me,
Don't run around, don't talk nonsense, just wait for the emperor's decree."
Xuanyuan Junfan sighed and left, while Lu Zhiyao sighed and sat there in deep thought.
What should I do? I definitely can’t marry. If I marry once or twice, I can’t marry a third time. But the emperor’s order cannot be violated. How can she escape? Where can she escape?
Lu Zhiyao was very upset. Mo Xiaoying happened to appear, and he didn't know whether he passed by here intentionally or accidentally.
"I heard that the emperor wants to accept you as his concubine?" Mo Xiaoying asked directly.
"Did the news... spread so fast?" Lu Zhiyao asked hesitantly. Even she knew it?
Mo Xiaoying pursed her lips and smiled, "That's not true, Xuanyuan Junfan told me. Why, seeing that you look unhappy, don't you want to?"
"It's strange to say that you are willing!" Lu Zhiyao carefully controlled his voice, "You and I will serve the same husband together, are you willing? It's not like you to do the same thing in front of you and do the same thing behind your back. Tell me, what are you doing with me?
Yes, you can’t possibly want to find out what I’m saying, right?”
Mo Xiaoying chuckled, dragged Lu Zhiyao to a remote and uninhabited corner, and whispered: "There is something I shouldn't tell you, but I didn't expect that he really guessed it."
"He? Who?"
"Lin Yinan."
As soon as these three words came out of Mo Xiaoying's mouth, Lu Zhiyao's expression immediately changed.
"When did you two meet?" Lu Zhiyao didn't want what he was thinking to become a reality.
"On the night I went into the mountains to find you."
Reality is always cruel, and Mo Xiaoying said without hesitation what Lu Zhiyao didn't want to hear.
"Lin Yinan said something to me after he came out, and one of them was a warning to me, saying that Xuanyuan Haotian had a wrong idea for you."
Lu Zhiyao's heart was in a state of confusion. He wanted to know what else the two of them said, but he couldn't ask. Lin Yinan probably really didn't intend to leave that night at the beginning. Later, he left because he knew Mo Xiaoying
Did you find out about his existence, so you went to meet Mo Xiaoying specifically?
