The woman's words were like a joke, making everyone who heard her laugh. The men responsible for capturing her looked at each other, then laughed, and mocking words followed.
Lu Zhiyao stood aside, seeing that the woman was about to be taken away, Lu Zhiyao said clearly: "Wait!"
Lu Zhiyao's words brought everyone's attention to her again. The captured woman felt hope, raised her little face and looked at Lu Zhiyao with a flattering smile, and asked for help again.
Lu Zhiyao thought about what the woman had said unintentionally just now, and felt that something was not quite right. Looking at the entire capital, including himself, including the arrogant and domineering Lu Zhiqing, who would dare to say such words as killing nine people when they are angry?
Lu Zhiyao glanced at the woman's delicate facial features and walked forward slowly. "Let her go." Lu Zhiyao said coldly to the man who grabbed the woman's arm.
"Mind your own business! Just let it go as you say?"
The man couldn't help but cursed when he opened his mouth. There were also some teasing words mixed in, which made Lu Zhiyao and Yudie beside her a little angry. The people watching the excitement saw that none of the men seemed to be easy to offend.
, so no one dared to say anything or directly stepped forward to help Lu Zhiyao and the others.
"How much money does she owe you? I'll give you double it. Just let her go." Lu Zhiyao had no intention of arguing with them, but unfortunately a few men didn't believe her. In desperation, Lu Zhiyao asked the woman what she owed.
Who would have thought that the woman didn't know how much she had beaten them. After a few words, the men realized that they might have met a fool, so they opened their mouths. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhiyao didn't even frown and raised his hand.
Got silver.
"If you don't let me go, how about we go to the Yamen?" Lu Zhiyao saw that a few men wanted to make more money, so he said to Yudie: "Die'er, go report to the official."
"F*ck, let's go!" The leading man waved his hand, and the person who grabbed the woman immediately let go. Several people looked at Lu Zhiyao for a few times, and then left.
The crowd gradually dispersed. Lu Zhiyao looked at the frightened woman and asked, "Where do you live? Do you want me to send someone to take you back?"
"No need." The woman shook her head repeatedly and smiled awkwardly: "It's you, thank you for saving me. What's your name? Where do you live? I'll have someone send you the money later!"
"Forget the money, just remember not to offend those people again. Next time, no one may come to save you." After Lu Zhiyao was sure that the woman did not want him to give her away, he said no more.
What, planning to leave.
"Tell me what your name is!" The woman refused and followed Lu Zhiyao, asking for her name. After she got her wish, she finally let Lu Zhiyao go.
Lu Zhiyao walked far away and looked back. The woman had disappeared.
"Why do you want to help her, Miss?"
"Do you think she looks like an ordinary girl?" Lu Zhiyao asked without answering.
Yudie thought about it seriously and said, "It doesn't look like that."
"Then it's over. Maybe we'll meet somewhere in the future. It's also good to sell a favor."
After Lu Zhiyao left, Lin Ruoxue trotted all the way, panting and arriving at a place she was familiar with. Lin Ruoxue asked the guard at the door, "Is Prince Mu at the house?"
"Who are you?" The guard glanced at Lin Ruoxue, who was disguised as a man, but did not recognize her identity. "There are so many people who want to see our prince! Who do you think you are?"
"Eh? You're such a scornful slave, waiting for me to deal with you!" Lin Ruoxue took a breath, feeling unhappy in her heart because of her unsatisfactory day. When she opened her mouth to announce her name, Lin Ruoxue got her wish.
After seeing Lin Mubai, he called out "Uncle Emperor" and threw himself into Lin Mubai's arms.
Lin Mubai smiled happily when he saw Lin Ruoxue. "Why did Xiaoxue come here by herself?"
"Uncle Emperor, help me quickly!" Lin Ruoxue looked up at Lin Mubai with a sad face, "I slipped out of the palace secretly, and my mother and the others must have found me missing now and are looking for me everywhere. If they
If you know that I am running around outside, I will never have a chance to come out again!"
"Then tell me, where have you been dressed like this?" Lin Mubai changed his usual serious look, looked at Lin Ruoxue dotingly, hugged her and walked towards the table. Lin Ruoxue sat down.
After sitting on the chair, Lin Mubai asked: "Were you bullied?"
Lin Ruoxue had lost her hair because she was in a hurry to escape, and she looked a little embarrassed now.
Lin Ruoxue did not hesitate and told her everything about today's encounter. At the end, she said to Lin Mubai with a serious face: "Uncle, you have to avenge me! They bullied people too much!"
After Lin Mubai was stunned, he chuckled. "The princess disguised herself as a man and chose that smoky brothel instead of anywhere else. If outsiders find out about this, can you imagine what they will say?"
"I... I'm just curious!" Lin Ruoxue quickly sat down next to Lin Mubai, hugged Lin Mubai's arm, and said, "I saw that there were so many people in that place, so I got in, but who knew
They wronged me and asked me for so much money without doing anything."
Speaking of money, Lin Ruoxue suddenly remembered something serious. "By the way, uncle, there was a girl who was generous and gave money to them to rescue me. Can you go back and help me thank her?"
"Okay, do you know the name of where she lives?" Lin Mubai agreed, secretly remembering the name of the brothel Lin Ruoxue mentioned, and asked.
"She refused to tell me where she lived, but I asked her name. She said her name was Lu Zhiyao. I saw that she was not dressed like an ordinary person. She should be easy to find, right?"
As soon as Lin Ruoxue said Lu Zhiyao's name, Lin Mubai's eyes flickered. Because of what happened at the Beauty Pavilion a few days ago, the woman who was kidnapped was the maid of Lu Zhiyao, the prime minister's daughter. This is Lin Mubai
I just found out about it not long ago. How could it be such a coincidence that Lu Zhiyao rescued Xiaoxue?
Lin Mubai smiled and agreed to Lin Ruoxue's matter, but doubts arose in his heart. After talking to Lin Ruoxue for a while, Lin Mubai sent someone to take her back to the palace. "It's already late. If you don't go back,
, I’m afraid your mother-in-law is really anxious. If you think of coming out someday, send someone to let me know, and I will personally go to the palace to pick you out. What do you think?"
"Uncle Emperor, it's the best! You promised me this, don't go back on it!" Lin Ruoxue took two steps and then stopped. She looked at Lin Mubai worriedly and said, "Uncle Emperor, if my mother-in-law asks you
If you get up, don't let it slip! Just tell me that I came to you! There is also the matter of Lu Zhiyao. Next time I come out of the palace, you take me to thank her in person. "
"Okay, don't worry."
Lin Mubai sent Lin Ruoxue away and returned to the way she used to be when she was repelling people thousands of miles away. Sitting on a chair and meditating alone, Lin Mubai felt that this was a good opportunity to get close to Lu Zhiyao and check up on her.
One day passed, and Lin Mubai went directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion the next day. This not only shocked Lu Zhiyao, but even Lu Yuanzheng turned pale with fright.
Lu Yuanzheng looked at Lin Mubai in front of him. He was stunned for a long time before he realized what he was doing. He hurriedly approached Lin Mubai and carefully waited for Lin Mubai to speak.
Lin Mubai, like Lin Yinan, seldom allowed people to see him in person. Most of the time he spent in his own house, let alone the house of a minister in the imperial court. Lin Mubai suddenly came and asked
Lu Yuanzheng felt uneasy and didn't understand what he was doing.
"This is the first time that I have come to your residence, right?" Lin Mubai walked, looking at the scenery of the prime minister's residence, and talked to Lu Yuanzheng casually.
"It is indeed the first time to return to the prince." Lu Yuanzheng answered humbly, not daring to show any slightness for fear of offending the aloof Prince Mu.
Lu Yuanzheng welcomed Lin Mubai into the main hall. After being polite, he asked, "I wonder if the prince is here today, but what is the important matter?"
"Don't be nervous, I'm just here for a walk." Lin Mubai took a sip of tea, and then changed the topic, which made Lu Yuanzheng's heart suddenly rise to the sky again. "Meet your eldest daughter by the way.
, Lu Zhiyao.”
"How far away?" Lu Yuanzheng opened his eyes wide, paused for a moment, and asked worriedly: "I wonder what wrong thing my little girl has done?"
"I am here to thank her."
Lu Zhiyao sat in the room, looked at Wanyue who rushed in in a panic, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Is your butt on fire?"
"Miss, stop making trouble!" Wan Yue had no intention of joking with Lu Zhiyao and said, "Chu Hansheng sent a message, saying that Prince Mu has come to the house and wants to see you!"
Chu Hansheng was Lu Yuanzheng's minion. Because of several things, he changed his attitude towards Lu Zhiyao. If there was any major incident, he would also inform Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao stood up from the table, looked at Wan Yue with a stiff expression and asked, "Who are you talking about? Prince Mu?"
"That's right, it's Prince Mu!"
Wanyue's affirmative nod made Lu Zhiyao's heart instantly freeze. He closed his eyes suddenly. Lu Zhiyao didn't expect that Lin Mubai would come to the door so soon. He and Lin Mubai fought that night, even if he didn't
After seeing his face clearly, he should have some impression of his figure. But how did he want to deal with this matter when he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see him in such an upright manner?
Lu Zhiyao sat helplessly on the chair. After a while, Lu Yuanzheng sent someone to call her again. Lu Zhiyao's eyes were distracted and he slowly stood up. She wanted to find an excuse to refuse.
Go, but she also knew that this was impossible. The dignified Prince Mu took the initiative to come to the door and asked to see her. If she didn't see her, wouldn't she be looking for death? Going or not going would be a death. She no longer has this road.
