"I didn't know it, but it turns out that the Eighth Prince likes to force others to make things difficult for him." Lu Zhiyao sighed heavily, and the slight embarrassment in his heart due to that night was wiped away by the rogue-like expression on Lin Yinan's face.
"I'm not comparing myself to you, this matter has nothing to do with me." Lin Yinan shied away, sitting there watching the excitement like an outsider.
Lu Zhiyao was helpless, stood up slowly, and said to Zhan Yulong: "The fight with Ling Yi was just because he deliberately let me, and I won because of my good luck. Just like what the Eighth Prince said just now,
I was able to defeat him with some brute strength after drinking. If you don't mind my three-legged cat's kung fu, I would be happy to spend time with you."
"Miss Lu is serious." I have seen too many delicate and arrogant young ladies. Lu Zhiyao's humble attitude made Zhan Yulong a little uncomfortable. He took off the long sword from his waist and put it on the table. Zhan Yulong did
He made a gesture of invitation and walked with Lu Zhiyao to a spacious area. Lin Yinan and Ling Yi followed closely behind, looking at the two people standing opposite each other.
Lu Zhiyao's eyes fell on Zhan Yulong's shoulder, not wanting to compete seriously with him. The last time Lin Mubai treated him viciously, Lu Zhiyao still occasionally feels pain in his right shoulder even now.
Zhan Yulong suddenly started to move, and his black figure was like lightning in the sky. He arrived in front of Lu Zhiyao in just an instant. Lu Zhiyao did not fight Zhan Yulong directly. His slender figure flashed, and when Zhan Yulong had just stabilized his steps, he
She slipped past him, forcing Zhan Yulong to turn around and catch her again.
Zhan Yulong's palm wind was so powerful that Lu Zhiyao had to put away his careless attitude and face it seriously. The cold and sharp look in Zhan Yulong's eyes reminded Lu Zhiyao not to underestimate the enemy. Lu Zhiyao was constantly by Zhan Yulong's side
Moving, flying, dodging, and finally, he was forced to take action.
Lu Zhiyao's counterattack made Zhan Yulong take three steps back, and then he stepped forward again, stretched out his strong arm, and took over Lu Zhiyao's pursuit. Without a weapon in hand, Lu Zhiyao was obviously at a disadvantage in a head-to-head encounter with strength alone.
It was a big loss for her. Shaking away his slightly painful hand, a smile flashed across Lu Zhiyao's eyes. His bright eyes shone like gems under the sunlight, swaying into Lin Yinan's field of vision over there.
Lu Zhiyao smiled brightly at Zhan Yulong. This smile made Zhan Yulong's movements suddenly delayed. He didn't know what she had in mind. Lu Zhiyao jumped into the air and grabbed Zhan Yulong's shoulders in the air. Zhan Yulong thought she was
Wanting to throw his body away, Zhan Yulong immediately raised his hand to catch Lu Zhiyao's wrist. After Lu Zhiyao landed, Zhan Yulong quickly turned around and swept away with his long legs.
Lu Zhiyao was restrained by Zhan Yulong, and he dodged his blow with a slight embarrassment. When Zhan Yulong waved his palm at her again, Lu Zhiyao no longer dodged, but took the palm.
Lin Yinan's eyes narrowed, but Lu Zhiyao's next move made him dumbfounded.
Lu Zhiyao was hit hard by Zhan Yulong's palm. Zhan Yulong didn't expect that she would accept his palm so obediently and hurriedly let go. But after taking a step back, Zhan Yulong felt that something was not right.
Lu Zhiyao covered her eyes with her left hand and slowly raised her right hand. Her hand was none other than Zhan Yulong's belt.
"I didn't see anything, I'll give this back to you." Lu Zhiyao said to Zhan Yulong intermittently while coughing. Zhan Yulong's face turned red, he held his pants with one hand and took the belt from Lu Zhiyao's hand with the other.
, walked aside silently. Lu Zhiyao stood there for a long time with his eyes closed. After hearing Lin Yinan's chuckle, he narrowed his eyes to a slit.
"Who did you learn this rogue move from?" Lin Yinan walked up to Lu Zhiyao and asked in a low voice.
"Let the Eighth Prince laugh." Lu Zhiyao patted his chest and coughed twice.
"Ling Yi, go ask Jian Yuheng to come and show her."
"No need!" Lu Zhiyao waved his hand to stop Ling Yi, and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'll be fine in a moment."
After Lu Zhiyao finished speaking, the eyes of several people looked at her differently. Zhan Yulong knew the importance of his actions, so he asked worriedly: "Is everything really okay? Otherwise, just ask Doctor Jian to come and take a look."
"There's really no need. It's getting late now, so I'll go back." Lu Zhiyao is not a pampered person. Zhan Yulong's palm did hurt a little when it first hit him, but after a while, the pain disappeared.
Since he was so strong, Lu Zhiyao felt there was no need to specially find an imperial doctor to examine him.
Lu Zhiyao insisted that he was fine, so Lin Yinan did not keep him and asked Ling Yi to send her back. Lu Zhiyao took two steps out of the yard and saw Xia Han who had come over at some time. In the scene just now, Xia Han
I also saw it. The look he was looking at Lu Zhiyao was a bit strange at this time. Ignoring the expectant look in Lu Zhiyao's eyes, Xia Han turned around and left in a big stride.
Xia Han's reaction and attitude towards him made Lu Zhiyao feel a little melancholy. Returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lu Zhiyao got into the room and looked at the place where he had just been beaten. As expected, it turned red.
"The strength of the hand is really strong enough." Lu Zhiyao murmured, remembering that he had also embarrassed Zhan Yulong, and a smile could not help but appear at the corner of his mouth.
After Lu Zhiyao left, Lin Yinan looked at Zhan Yulong and asked, "How was it?"
Zhan Yulong frowned unhappily and did not answer, and then asked in confusion: "Who did the eldest lady of the Lu family learn her kung fu from?"
"I don't know either." Lu Zhiyao had told Lin Yinan before that it was Xia Zhenkun who taught her, but Lin Yinan felt that there was no possibility at all. "You should also step back. I will call you again if something happens."
As soon as Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan met, they never contacted each other again. When they met again, it was on the wedding day of Lu Zhiqing and Lin Yixiang.
What a big deal it is for the prime minister's daughter to marry the seventh prince? Not only the emperor and queen showed up, but also some people who are rarely seen in normal times.
The Prime Minister's Mansion was bustling with activity. Lu Zhiyao hid in his room, feeling that the matter had nothing to do with him. As long as she didn't go out and cause any trouble, that would be the best. Who knew that Ye Lianrong didn't think so.
Ye Lianrong, who was dressed elegantly and elegantly, twisted her hips and pushed open Lu Zhiyao's door. Lu Zhiyao saw her face glowing red, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, so he stood up and congratulated Ye Lianrong politely.
.
"Our house is so busy today, how can you, the girl, hide in this corner without seeing anyone? Change your clothes quickly and go out with your second mother!"
Lu Zhiyao blinked, not understanding what play Ye Lianrong was singing. Seeing that she couldn't talk to Lu Zhiyao, Ye Lianrong reached out to pull her.
"Second mother, wait a minute." Lu Zhiyao twitched his lips with a fake smile, "There are still so many people waiting outside. You go out first, and I will go find you later. How about that?"
Ye Lianrong nodded happily and left with swaying steps. Wan Yue, who was also in the room, witnessed all this, sighed, and said to Lu Zhiyao: "Miss, I think she must have bad intentions! Let's not go out!"
"An'er is not so kind. She has to face what she has to face. Today is her daughter's big day, so we won't be the same as her." Lu Zhiyao asked Wan Yue to get some clothes and tidied them up.
He took her out. Wan Yue followed Lu Zhiyao. She had never seen the Prime Minister's Mansion so lively, and she gradually forgot about the discomfort Ye Lianrong had just brought.
Not long after Lu Zhiyao left, he saw Lin Mubai. His body was stunned and his heart sank. Lu Zhiyao reluctantly walked over and whispered: "Lu Zhiyao has met the prince."
Lin Mubai turned around and saw that it was Lu Zhiyao, and immediately snorted coldly and said: "Get out!", which made Wan Yue behind Lu Zhiyao confused.
My young lady is fine, why is this prince talking like this?
Lu Zhiyao didn't dare to say any more and hurriedly left. After walking for a long time, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss, have you offended that prince?" Wan Yue wrinkled her face and asked Lu Zhiyao in a low voice.
Lu Zhiyao knew that she was not happy to see him being scolded, but he couldn't tell her the truth, so he smiled and shook his head and said, "Prince Mu has a bad temper, you don't have to take it to heart."
Lu Zhiyao applied a little makeup today. She had a faint smile on her face, her eyebrows were as dark as a pair of daisies, her dark eyes were as clear as a stream, her lips were a little red, and she was elegant and plain. Her gentle eyes were looking around the crowd, looking for Ye Lianrong.
figure.
After searching for a long time, Lu Zhiyao finally found Ye Lianrong in a crowd. Walking slowly over, Lu Zhiyao spoke softly and called "Er Niang", attracting the attention of those people to him.
As soon as Ye Lianrong saw Lu Zhiyao, a cold light suddenly flashed in her eyes. A hypocritical smile appeared on Ye Lianrong's face. She walked over and pulled Lu Zhiyao to her side, and then said to the women who were surrounding her just now
, introduced: "This is the eldest lady of our family, Lu Zhiyao. Didn't you say you haven't seen her before? Now you know what she looks like?"
The women scanned Lu Zhiyao up and down, and expressions of surprise, regret and ridicule appeared alternately on their faces. Lu Zhiyao knew that he had a bad reputation outside, so he didn't care much.
But what Ye Lianrong said next caught Lu Zhiyao's attention.
"Hey, I usually treat Zhiyao as my own daughter. Today is the happy day of my biological daughter Zhiqing, so I have to worry about our family Zhiyao." Ye Lianrong held Lu Zhiyao's hand and didn't let go.
, said in a low voice with sincerity: "A few days ago, didn't it come out in the palace that the emperor intends to give Zhiyuan to the eighth prince? Our master and I are very happy! But who knows, this good news will come out.
Not long after, I heard again that the emperor disagreed."
"Oh? Why?" Many women who had doubts couldn't help asking gossiping questions.
Ye Lianrong glanced at Lu Zhiyao meaningfully, and the sneer on her lips made Lu Zhiyao realize that she would not be able to say anything good.
