Chapter 62 The weasel pays New Year greetings to the chicken
Lu Zhiyao looked like he was about to die, and followed the people to Lin Mubai. He bowed his head and saluted Lin Mubai. Lu Zhiyao gritted his teeth, and when he met Lin Mubai's appraising gaze, his heart beat like thunder.
Lin Mubai looked at Lu Zhiyao, and just as Lu Zhiyao said, he looked familiar to her. That day and night when he broke into the Beauty Pavilion, Lu Zhiyao's face was covered with a piece of gauze, but his figure
And the fragrance on her body cannot be changed.
Lin Mubai smiled slightly, which made Lu Zhiyao feel even more uneasy, and his clenched palms began to sweat.
"I came to see you today because I want to ask you something."
Lu Zhiyao spoke in a low voice, pretending to be calm, "My lord, may I ask."
"You were on the street yesterday, but you saved a girl?"
What Lin Mubai asked surprised Lu Zhiyao. After being stunned for a moment, Lu Zhiyao nodded reflexively, and then asked in confusion: "How did the prince know about this?"
"Don't ask any more questions. I am thanking you on her behalf today." Lin Mubai did not say that Lin Ruoxue was a princess. He made a gesture, and the person next to him immediately took out a handbag from his waist.
A bank note came and was handed to Lu Zhiyao's hand. "Now that I'm sure it's you who saved the life, I'll send someone to deliver the rest of the thank you gift tomorrow."
It turns out that the girl belongs to Prince Mu, no wonder she is so confident to say such words. But as far as Lu Zhiyao knows, Prince Mu has not married yet, let alone children, so what is the relationship between that woman and him?
Relationship? Also, isn’t it because of Wan Yue’s affairs that he came today?
"Zhiyao just helped me casually, how dare I accept such a generous gift from the prince." Lu Zhiyao shook his head and stuffed the banknote back into the guard's hand.
"What's wrong with your shoulder?" Lin Mubai noticed with sharp eyes that Lu Zhiyao's right shoulder had been in a stiff state since he entered the room, and his entire right arm was also hanging tightly.
"I accidentally hit the door frame last night and it hurt a little." Lu Zhiyao smiled sheepishly and covered it up.
"Really?" Lin Mubai asked meaningfully, and then said, "Then you should pay more attention to your body."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Lin Mubai didn't mention anything about Wan Yue. When Lu Zhiyao heard him say that he was going back, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up and accompanied Lu Yuanzheng, sending Lin Mubai off to the
Walking towards the gate, Lu Zhiyao thought that as long as Lin Mubai left, everything would be fine. But just when she had this idea, the guard who had been following Lin Mubai suddenly walked over to her.
, stopped her.
"You accept the banknote, this is our prince's wish." The man said in a low voice as he handed the banknote that Lu Zhiyao had given him before again to Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Mubai, who had already stepped out of the threshold and was about to reach the sedan chair, and shook his head, "I can't accept this banknote."
"Just take it if the prince tells you to take it." The man patted Lu Zhiyao's shoulder nonchalantly, causing Lu Zhiyao's expression to change immediately.
The man realized it later and began to apologize to Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao endured the pain, said with a forced smile that it was okay, and finally sent Lin Mubai, the "god" away.
Lu Yuanzheng watched Lin Mubai leave, walked back to Lu Zhiyao, looked at her doubtfully and asked, "What happened yesterday?"
Lu Zhiyao told everything about yesterday's events. No matter how hard she calculated, she never expected that the woman was related to Lin Mubai and could invite Lin Mubai to come and thank her.
Lu Yuanzheng sighed lightly. Why didn't he find out before that his daughter had the ability to attract all kinds of important people to the house? First the Eighth Prince, and now Prince Mu. This kind of thing made Lu Yuanzheng feel happy.
Worry, as the saying goes, accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. This is a saying that Lu Yuanzheng, as the prime minister, understands very well. And royal families like Lin Yinan and Lin Mubai, although they are not emperors, are still in danger.
, if one day I offend them for something, it will be really difficult to deal with. It would be better to have nothing to do with them before.
After being asked by Lu Yuanzheng, Lu Zhiyao returned to his residence limply. Ignoring Wan Yue and Yu Die's inquiries, Lu Zhiyao sat dejectedly on the chair and said nothing, which frightened both of them.
One jump.
"Miss, why did you offend that prince? He didn't do anything to you, right?" Wan Yue cried with a sad face, a little scared.
Lu Zhiyao listened to the two chattering for a long time before finally reacting. "No, he came to give me a gift."
After saying that, Lu Zhiyao slapped the bank note on the table, making Wanyue and Yudie's eyes light up.
"Prince Mu is so generous! Ten thousand taels is so much!" Wan Yue sighed: "Miss, why did he give you so much money?"
"Yudie, do you remember the person we rescued on the street yesterday? Prince Mu said that he came to thank us on her behalf."
Yudie opened her eyes wide and asked in shock: "Who is that person?"
"I don't know, I'm just an ordinary person." Lu Zhiyao sighed weakly, "You guys go out first and let me stay alone for a while."
The news that Lin Mubai went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Lu Zhiyao spread quickly. Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing gritted their teeth and listened to the maid talking about this, and they were very angry.
"When did this little coquettish girl hook up with Prince Mu?!" Ye Lianrong said in disbelief: "We really underestimated her before!"
"Mom, you don't know that the seventh prince came to see me at the house that day, and she shamelessly pestered the seventh prince to chat with him! It really pissed me off!" Lu Zhiqing said about the conversation between Lin Yixiang and Lu Zhiyao that day,
He just wished that Lu Zhiyao would disappear from his eyes immediately and never see her again.
"Yuechan, go and inquire again and ask Lu Zhiyao how he met Prince Mu!"
"Okay!" Yuechan nodded and left the house, heading straight to the yard beyond the landing.
Not only Ye Lianrong, but also Lin Yinan soon learned the news. After listening to Zhan Yulong's words, Lin Yinan thought for a moment and said, "In the future, you don't have to go to the Shogun's Palace to keep an eye on me."
"Master, has something happened?" Zhan Yulong asked uneasily.
Lin Yinan slowly shook his head. If Lin Mubai didn't take action first, he couldn't do anything. Lu Zhiyao, a troublemaker, didn't know how long he could have a good life this time.
Just like what Lin Mubai said, the day after he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he sent people to deliver many things to Lu Zhiyao, which made Lu Yuanzheng feel flattered. Lu Zhiyao saw
Looking at the things that had been moved into his room, he tugged at the corners of his mouth, not knowing what to say. As for what? Does Prince Mu really want to thank himself, or is he just a weasel paying New Year greetings to the rooster, what's his plan?
Just when Lu Zhiyao was looking at the jewelry in a daze, Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing suddenly came uninvited.
"Ouch! Look at these treasures, tsk tsk, these are all good things!" As soon as Ye Lianrong entered the room, she went straight to the jewelry with bright eyes. The look of envy was clearly revealed on her face.
"Do you like it, Er Niang?" Lu Zhiyao sat on the chair without getting up, looking sideways at Ye Lianrong's greedy expression and asked.
"Yeah, I like it!" Ye Lianrong thought that Lu Zhiyao would go along with the situation and say to give her one, but it turned out that she was wrong again.
"It's a pity that this is a gift from Prince Mu. I don't dare to give it away at will. Otherwise, if the prince knows about it, I wonder if he will be blamed." Lu Zhiyao looked at Ye Lianrong in embarrassment and said with a smile: "If Er Niang likes it,
Just take a second look, good things like this are not easy to see."
"Mom! What are you doing!" Lu Zhiqing forcefully pulled Ye Lianrong over, "Isn't it embarrassing?"
Ye Lianrong and the others originally wanted to show their goodwill to Lu Zhiyao, but when Lu Zhiyao said this, they felt their faces were dull and immediately turned away. Lu Zhiyao sent the two away with a smile.
Then he said to Wan Yue and Yu Die: "Pick the ones you like and bring them with you."
"Miss, this is impossible!" Yudie refused in horror.
"What are you afraid of? To put it bluntly, these things may have been kept in the warehouse of the Shogunate for a long time without being touched. If they are dusty, you can just take them with you. It will make them angry in the future."
After Lu Zhiyao collected Lin Mubai's things, he was worried every day, not knowing when he would come to visit him again. But for several days, nothing happened.
As the wedding date of Lu Zhiqing and Lin Yixiang approaches, the Prime Minister's Mansion becomes more and more lively. The place where Lu Zhiyao lives is the only way to go to Lu Zhiqing's house, so Lu Zhiyao does the most when he is bored every day
I just wanted to take the two maids to watch the excitement, recuperate, and learn from them some past events in the prime minister's house.
"Miss, look." Wan Yue bent over Lu Zhiyao's ear and pointed at the person walking from a distance, "Maybe what are you doing here?"
Lu Zhiyao looked over and saw Ye Shengnan, whom he had not seen for a long time. Ye Shengnan walked over in a hurry. When he saw the three of Lu Zhiyao, his eyes suddenly changed, but he did not stop, but went straight towards Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing.
.
Ye Shengnan felt uncomfortable looking at Wan Yue next to Lu Zhiyao. He didn't know how this maid came back, but fortunately, the Beauty Pavilion didn't hold him accountable and didn't take back the money he used to sell Wan Yue.
The money given to you is still in your hands.
"Brother, why are you here today?" Ye Lianrong immediately became vigilant when she saw Ye Shengnan. "If it was for money, my sister would have said something ugly beforehand, but I didn't."
"You're such a heartless person!" When Ye Shengnan heard what Ye Lianrong said, he couldn't hold back his face. "I don't even think about how I helped you in the first place! Now I see my brother and I are desperate, and you don't want to save me!"
