Chapter 66 Who was the man who saved you that night?
The more Ye Shengnan thought about it, the more she felt that the person looked like Lu Zhiyao, but was that girl that powerful? Thinking about returning to Ye Mansion all the way, Ye Shengnan struggled repeatedly and did not dare to act rashly. After all, if it wasn't Lu Zhiyao, he would have wronged her.
Not easy to handle.
Lu Zhiyao took the money back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. On the way, he met some elderly mothers-in-law selling vegetables, so he gave some to them. Returning to his courtyard, Lu Zhiyao entered the room with a smile on his face.
Yue and Yudie looked at her happy face and couldn't help but ask what was good about her.
"It's nothing, it's just robbing the rich and giving to the poor."
The banknotes Lu Zhiyao got from Ye Lianrong last time were passed on by Lin Yinan, and he finally had some savings on his hands. Although he didn't earn them cleanly, it was still useful.
Lu Zhiyao forced Ye Shengnan into a desperate situation. She was happy for two days, but trouble came again. Lu Zhiyao looked at the person in front of her and listened to him say that Prince Mu wanted to invite her to Prince Mu's Mansion. Her mood plummeted.
, the smile on his face also seemed a bit stiff.
The dignified Prince Mu invited Lu Zhiyao, no matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to refuse. Nodding in agreement, Lu Zhiyao changed into more decent clothes and quickly adjusted his makeup. Wan Yue and Yu Die were worried
Under the watchful eye, the people who followed Prince Mu's Mansion left.
Lu Zhiyao sat in the sedan, feeling uneasy along the way. After seeing Lin Mubai's appraising eyes, Lu Zhiyao felt a little more stressed.
"Lu Zhiyao has met the prince." Lu Zhiyao saluted and stood calmly waiting for Lin Mubai to speak.
"Sit down." Lin Mubai glanced at Lu Zhiyao, pointed to a chair not far away, and asked, "Do you know why I came to you today?"
"I don't know." Lu Zhiyao answered honestly, fearing that the words "Beauty Pavilion" would pop out of Lin Mubai's mouth.
Just when Lin Mubai stopped making any sound and Lu Zhiyao was extremely confused and anxious, a burst of laughter suddenly came from behind the curtain.
Lu Zhiyao looked sideways and saw the woman walking slowly in front of him.
"Lu Zhiyao, do you still remember who I am?" Lin Ruoxue and Lu Zhiyao looked at each other, looking at her confused expression, feeling a little disappointed in their hearts.
Lu Zhiyao thought for a while, and after remembering who the owner of this face was, Lu Zhiyao opened his mouth slightly and said, "It's you?!"
"You still remember me, that's good!" Lin Ruoxue smiled with relief, turned to look at Lin Mubai, and said, "Uncle, thank you for helping me."
The way Lin Mubai looked at Lin Ruoxue made Lu Zhiyao very surprised. His expression was soft, and his eyes were full of doting. Lin Ruoxue called Lin Mubai "Uncle", so her identity was naturally clear.
Lu Zhiyao bent down and was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Lin Ruoxue.
"We're not in the palace, so there's no need to salute." Lin Ruoxue raised her hand to support Lu Zhiyao, and then said to Lin Mubai over there: "Uncle, I'm taking Zhiyao to the garden."
"Okay, let's go." Lin Mubai smiled and nodded. After the two left, he asked Yin Jian to leave and monitor.
"I really want to thank you last time, otherwise I would not be able to reap the rewards if it caused a big mess." Lin Ruoxue stuck out her tongue, still a little scared when she thought of what happened that day. "I begged the emperor to help me check your identity. I don't want to."
You are actually the daughter of the Prime Minister. I came out of the palace today to express my gratitude to you in person. If you have time in the future, how about you come into the palace to accompany me?"
How could this little princess be so good to Prince Mu? Could it be that Prince Mu's usually cold demeanor was just an act? In fact, he was very kind to his descendants? But when Lu Zhiyao thought about what Lin Yinan said before, he felt that he should
That's not the case.
"Zhiyao just helped those who could help, and I didn't expect that the one I saved would be the princess. Prince Mu has already given me enough thanks, and I really don't dare to let the princess express her gratitude to me again." Lu Zhiyao said respectfully.
He replied: "As for entering the palace, if the princess wants to see Zhiyao, Zhiyao can just go into the palace to accompany her."
"Okay, then we have made an agreement, and you are not allowed to go back on it!"
Lin Ruoxue has only dealt with those in the palace for many years, and rarely interacted with people outside. The few times she went out of the palace, she always came to Prince Mu's Mansion, and she had no chance to meet any new people. This time she met by chance.
Lu Zhiyao and Lin Ruoxue were very excited. They talked to Lu Zhiyao for a long time and asked her some weird questions. After hearing Lu Zhiyao's answers, Lin Ruoxue was amazed, which made Lu Zhiyao a little pitiful.
This little princess.
What Lu Zhiyao said were very common things, but Lin Ruoxue seemed to have never heard of them. At Lin Ruoxue's request, Lu Zhiyao told her some things that he found interesting, making Lin Ruoxue laugh.
, when it was time to return to the palace, I was still a little reluctant to leave.
"Uncle Huang, next time I come, can you ask Zhiyao to accompany me?"
"Okay!" Lin Mubai didn't even think about it. It seemed that as long as Lin Ruoxue was happy, he would agree to anything. "Next time you want to leave the palace, send someone to send me a message, and I will go into the palace to pick you up!"
Lin Ruoxue returned to the palace happily. Lu Zhiyao stood there, watching Lin Mubai send Lin Ruoxue away, then turned back to him, staring at him intently, Lu Zhiyao asked in a low voice: "Your Highness
But what else do you have to say?"
Lin Mubai looked at Lu Zhiyao for a while, then suddenly chuckled, which made Lu Zhiyao's back feel cold. He didn't know what Lin Mubai's laughter meant, but before Lu Zhiyao had time to figure it out,
Caught in crisis.
Lin Mubai glanced at Yin Jianli over there, and without giving Lu Zhiyao any chance to react, Yin Jianli rushed towards Lu Zhiyao with murderous intent.
Lu Zhiyao originally wanted to avoid hiding and hide his knowledge of martial arts. But Yin Jianli really didn't just want to scare her. The short dagger in Yin Jianli's hand was pointed straight at Lu Zhiyao's neck.
Stab away. Lu Zhiyao's body was first knocked to the ground by Yin Jianli. She watched helplessly as the blade was about to cut her throat, so she had to turn over to avoid it.
If Yin Jianli just wanted to scratch her face, then Lu Zhiyao would admit it. But she could never hand over this life.
Lu Zhiyao dodged Yin Jianli's attack, which made Lin Mubai's eyes suddenly change. He carefully watched Lu Zhiyao's every move. After a long while, he called out to Yin Jianli to stop.
Lu Zhiyao stood there with a heavy heart and looked at Lin Mubai, wondering if she would be able to escape Prince Mu's mansion today. She and Lin Mubai looked at each other, and as Lin Mubai didn't say anything,
Lu Zhiyao's nerves became more and more tense.
Lin Mubai first sent Yin Jianli away, then walked slowly to Lu Zhiyao, and asked with a gentle smile: "Do you know who I am?"
"It's Prince Mu." Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and answered Lin Mubai's question.
"In addition to the title of Prince Mu, what else is there?" Lin Mubai asked. Before Lu Zhiyao could answer, he raised his hand and squeezed Lu Zhiyao's thin shoulders hard.
The injury on Lu Zhiyao's right shoulder had not fully recovered. Lin Mubai squeezed it so hard that it felt as if his bones were about to break. Lin Mubai never showed any sign of stopping, and Lu Zhiyao was in extreme pain, so he had to
He took action again and let himself get away.
"The person who fought with me that night was indeed you." Lin Mubai looked at Lu Zhiyao with interest, curious about the prime minister's daughter having such good martial arts skills. Sitting on the chair, he looked at Lu Zhiyao intently.
Zhiyao asked: "So, who is the man who saved you?"
Lu Zhiyao didn't know what Lin Mubai had found out, but she had a vague feeling that he had never done anything to her before. Maybe he just felt that the time was not up, or it was because of Lin Ruoxue. But no matter what
, Lin Yinan's name could not be uttered from her mouth. She, Lu Zhiyao, could not do such a thing.
Lu Zhiyao took two steps forward and knelt down in front of Lin Mubai. "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. The girl was just anxious to save her maid that day. She really didn't want to get involved with the Prince."
"I ask you, who was the man who saved you that night?" Lin Mubai was unmoved and still grabbed the question and asked it again.
"I don't know him. After he rescued me and maid Wanyue, he took us to a safe place and left without saying a word to me. If the prince doesn't believe it, you can find out!"
"Do you think I will believe you if you say this?" Lin Mubai pinched Lu Zhiyao's chin, and the strength of his hand increased little by little. The pain made Lu Zhiyao wrinkled.
She frowned, but until the end, she looked at Lin Mubai firmly and said she didn't know.
Lin Mubai saw Lu Zhiyao's decisive attitude and knew that he would not be able to find out the identity of that person today, so he let go. Lu Zhiyao's chin turned red, and he knelt on the ground, watching Lin Mubai calmly.
With an expression on his face, Lu Zhiyao felt a sense of fear in his heart.
"Get up and talk." Lin Mubai's attitude suddenly changed. Lu Zhiyao slowly stood up. When she heard Lin Mubai ask herself if she knew who kidnapped her maid, Lu Zhiyao remained silent.
After a moment, he nodded.
"Oh? Then tell me, who is that person?"
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Mubai with twinkling eyes, and slowly spoke, "He's my uncle."
"Then how do you plan to deal with this matter?"
"Uncle is just obsessed for a moment, I have no intention of telling this matter."
Lin Mubai's lips curled up sarcastically, "You killed so many of my men, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Lin Mubai never denied that he was the master of Beauty Pavilion from beginning to end. Such a calm attitude was something Lu Zhiyao did not expect. It was indeed her who killed the person, so Lin Mubai wanted to deal with her, but she had nothing to say.
Lu Zhiyao took a deep breath resignedly and replied: "Although the killing was not my intention, people actually died in my hands. Zhiyao didn't know those people were the prince's men before, so he bumped into the prince.
I am willing to accept the punishment from the prince."
