Chapter 67 Get rid of Lu Zhiyao to avoid future troubles
"Punishment?" Lin Mubai sneered when he heard this, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Do you really think that this king can't do anything to you?"
"A civilian girl doesn't dare!" Lu Zhiyao shook his head hurriedly. It seemed that Lin Mubai was not going to let her go.
"Then tell me, what do you think this king will do with you?"
Lin Mubai pushed the question to Lu Zhiyao. After Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, he whispered: "People's girls are stupid and cannot guess the prince's thoughts. I am only willing to compensate for the losses caused to the prince."
"Compensation?" A cold light flashed in Lin Mubai's black eyes, "Do you think my subordinates are short of people? Or are they short of money? Lu Zhiyao, I will only give you three days to consider. After three days, if you are willing to pay that
If you tell the names of the accomplices, I will pretend that this incident has never happened. But if you don't tell me, don't blame me for being ruthless. Your father is an official in the court. How many people does he hold the position of prime minister?
I'm thinking about it, do you know?"
Lin Mubai threatened Lu Zhiyao like this, which made Lu Zhiyao panic. She couldn't say Lin Yinan's name. If Lu Yuanzheng's position as prime minister was taken away by Lin Mubai because of this incident, then...
…
Lu Zhiyao gritted his teeth and remained silent. Lin Mubai didn't want to say anything more to her, so he called someone and sent her out. Lu Zhiyao stood outside the door of Prince Mu's Mansion with a lonely expression, looking toward him with a heavy heart.
Lin Mubai walked away to the prime minister's house. She really didn't know how to get through this test.
Lu Zhiyao has been depressed since he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, which made Wanyue and Yudie a little anxious.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Wan Yue asked in a low voice. Lu Zhiyao raised his eyes to look at her and waved her hand to tell her to get out.
Sitting alone in the room, Lu Zhiyao felt that Lin Mubai's target this time was obviously Lin Yinan. Lin Yinan showed off his skills that night. Although he didn't fight anyone, his wonderful light skills were enough to arouse
Everyone's curiosity was aroused. Even Lu Zhiyao himself was surprised for a long time before accepting this fact. As Lin Mubai was Lin Yinan's imperial uncle, the impression that Lin Yinan was weak must have been even more profound in Lin Mubai's heart. If Lin Mubai was allowed to
If Mu Bai knew that the person was Lin Yinan, it might cause some big waves. Even if Lu Zhiyao gave up Lin Yinan for the sake of Lu Yuanzheng's future and his own safety, if nothing happens to Lin Yinan, in the future she
The one person who was offended was Lin Yinan. Xia Han was still in Lin Yinan's hands, so Lu Zhiyao couldn't do that and didn't dare to do that.
What should I do? Lu Zhiyao kept asking himself in his mind, feeling confused.
After Lu Zhiyao left, Lin Mubai called his confidant Yin Jianli and asked, "What do you think of this Lu Zhiyao?"
"Back to your lord, according to what I saw, she just fought me, and I'm afraid she didn't use her full strength." Yin Jianli thought about some of the news he had found about Lu Zhiyao in the past few days, and was a little worried. "This Lu Zhiyao
, the outside world’s comments and rumors about her have never been very good. Most of them said that she was shameless and had relationships with many men. Many people in the capital knew her name, but they had never met her in person. I heard that the palace
Some time ago, news came out that the emperor intended to marry Lu Zhiyao to the eighth prince, and it seems that since then, there have been less rumors about her."
"Eighth Prince?" Lin Mubai was a little surprised to hear this person under such circumstances. "What was Lin Yinan's reaction?"
"The Eighth Prince has been to the Prime Minister's Mansion several times, and he doesn't seem to be disgusted with the news."
One is what people call a prostitute, and the other is a seriously ill prince. What will it look like if these two people come together?
Lin Mubai had paid attention to Lin Yinan before, not for any other reason, but because he was the first prince to take the initiative to leave the palace and withdraw from the struggle for the throne. Lin Yinan always kept a low profile, and he had not heard of him even after leaving the palace.
He secretly colluded with any of the ministers in the DPRK and formed gangs. In comparison, Lin Yichen and Lin Yixiang were far behind.
"Do you think the person who rescued Lu Zhiyao that night might be from the Eighth Prince's side?" Lin Mubai asked after silence.
"I don't dare to say for sure, but this Lu Zhiyao usually doesn't associate with anyone, and the Eighth Prince does have many capable people around him. Then, there is one thing that I don't understand, that is, what is Lu Zhiyao's martial arts skills?
Who did she learn it from? I’ve never heard of her being a martial arts expert before.”
"It's indeed strange." Lin Mubai nodded and explained: "Keep an eye on Lu Zhiyao for these three days, and bring her over to me in three days."
"I obey my orders."
Lu Zhiyao had no way to go and nothing to find. He counted the hours every day in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but time still flew by mercilessly, and three days were about to pass.
Lin Yinan got the news in the past three days that Lu Zhiyao had been to Prince Mu's Mansion and was being targeted. With a sigh, Lin Yinan looked at the sad faces of Ling Yi and Zhan Yulong, and asked with a smile: "
What happened?"
"Master." Ling Yi looked at Lin Yinan with a complicated expression and said uneasily: "It seems that Prince Mu has found something. If this continues, Lu Zhiyao will probably confess you sooner or later."
"What do you want to do?" Lin Yinan saw through Ling Yi's thoughts and continued to ask.
Ling Yi lowered his head with twinkling eyes, thought about it again and again, and said, "I think it's better to get rid of Lu Zhiyao altogether to avoid future troubles."
"Can you kill her?" Lin Yinan had no intention of attacking Ling Yi, but what he said was also true.
Ever since Lin Yinan rescued Lu Zhiyao that night, he had been thinking about how he would explain to Lin Mubai and how the matter would end if his martial arts skills were exposed. But now, he has also
He couldn't think of a way. So, he had no choice but to let nature take its course and act according to the circumstances.
Lin Mubai sent Lu Zhiyao to Prince Mu's Mansion and sent people to monitor her, but Lin Mubai did not take any action on his side. There are only two possibilities. One is that Lu Zhiyao did not tell her.
, Secondly, Lin Mubai suspected him but had no evidence. After all, he was still a prince. Over the years, Lin Mubai had not taken action against anyone in the royal family. This was also because no one dared to go against him. Lin Mubai once openly
He quarreled with the emperor in the main hall and cursed Lin Yunlong as a coward, which made Lin Yunlong furious, but in the end he had nothing to do with Lin Mubai.
Lin Yunlong thought about getting rid of Lin Mubai and implemented this plan, but all the masters sent there died in the hands of Lin Mubai without exception. Lin Mubai was a prince that the late emperor liked more.
, the status is still there. Lin Mubai established the Beauty Pavilion and made a lot of money, but he never did anything in the court and seemed to enjoy being an unknown prince. Lin Yunlong also knew that there was no proper reason.
It is impossible to make a decree to convict him, so it can be said that these two people have been at odds with each other over the years. For these two people, one is his father and the other is his uncle. Lin Yinan never thought that he would stand
Whose side was he on, but he never thought that he would have the leverage to fall into Lin Mubai's hands.
"Yulong, help me do something tonight." After Lin Yinan thought deeply, he raised his eyes to Zhan Yulong and ordered: "Enter Prince Mu's Mansion and help me make a mask."
"What does the master want to do?" Zhan Yulong asked curiously, while Ling Yi beside him also looked a little nervous.
"Just go and remember, I don't want anyone around Prince Mu. As for Ling Yi, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and keep an eye on him. If Prince Mu sends someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, come back and notify me immediately."
Zhan Yulong has been away all year round and is a complete stranger to Lin Mubai and others. This is why Lin Yinan did not send Ling Yi. "If your whereabouts are exposed, be sure not to fight with them. You only need to see the person's face clearly."
I just need to make a mask, and there is no need to do anything else."
"My subordinate understands!"
Following Lin Yinan's instructions, Zhan Yulong sneaked into Prince Mu's Mansion after dark, randomly found a servant in the kitchen, memorized his face, and hurried back, drew his face on paper, and prepared a picture for Lin Yinan
Human skin mask.
One night passed, and just after breakfast the next day, Lin Yinan saw Ling Yi return to him with a panic expression on his face, saying that Lin Mubai had sent someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion again.
Lin Yinan asked Zhan Yulong to change his appearance, change the clothes of the person under him, and planned to leave the house.
"Master." Ling Yi followed Lin Yinan worriedly, "This is too dangerous, why not let me go find out the news on your behalf!"
"Just wait for me in the mansion." Lin Yinan refused Ling Yi's proposal and went to Prince Mu's Mansion alone without looking back.
When Lin Yinan rushed to Prince Mu's Mansion and found Lu Zhiyao, Lu Zhiyao was kneeling in front of Lin Mubai with an expressionless face.
Lin Yinan stabilized his breathing, lying on the roof, listening carefully to the conversation in the room, ready to turn back and wait for Lin Mubai's people to come to the door when Lu Zhiyao mentioned his name.
But Lin Yinan never expected that he would hear such words.
Lu Zhiyao came to Prince Mu's Mansion again and came in front of Lin Mubai. Looking at Lin Mubai's cold eyes, Lu Zhiyao pulled the corners of his mouth forcefully and revealed a smile that was not very good-looking.
"Have you considered what I said to you before?" Lin Mubai asked straight to the point without delaying.
Lu Zhiyao was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "I've thought about it."
"Okay, you tell me." Lin Mubai smiled slightly, feeling that Lu Zhiyao was quite aware of current affairs, so he adjusted his posture and waited to hear her confession.
Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes, his heart beating like thunder. Under Lin Mubai's close gaze, he slowly spoke and whispered: "I hope the prince will keep his promise. As long as I tell the person's name, the prince will no longer pursue him."
Lin Mubai sneered and asked, "Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with me?"
Lu Zhiyao nervously clenched his fists and then unclenched them. He raised his head slightly and looked at Lin Mubai. She lightly opened her red lips and said, "The name of the person who saved me that night was Chu Ziqian."
