Lin Ruoxue's disappointed expression came into Lin Mubai's eyes. Lin Mubai rubbed her hair and said coaxingly: "Then after two days, you and your mother-in-law have made an agreement, and the emperor will come and take you out to play again, okay?"
?”
"Then can I go find Lu Zhiyao?"
Lin Ruoxue's questioning made Lin Mubai's eyes flash, and then he nodded slowly and replied: "Okay, go find Lu Zhiyao."
Just when Lin Mubai was talking to Lin Ruoxue, the door facing the two of them suddenly opened. Lin Ruoxue turned to look, and when she saw Zi Ningshuang coming out, she called out "Eniang"!
Zi Ningshuang looked at the people next to Lin Ruoxue, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes. "Ruoxue, come here." She said in a cold voice. After Zi Ningshuang called Lin Ruoxue to her side, she looked at Lin Mubai with clear eyes,
Asked: "Why does the prince have time to come to my place?"
"I just came to see Xiaoxue." Lin Mubai stood there, his eyes falling on Zi Ningshuang's face, and talking to her. "I just promised Xiaoxue that I would take her out of the palace to get some fresh air in a few days.
.These four high walls suffocated her."
"She is a princess, and she will inevitably not be criticized if she leaves the palace. Besides, this is her home, and she has to stay here no matter how much she holds back. Prince Mu, please come back if you have nothing to do."
"Eniang..." Lin Ruoxue looked at Zi Ningshuang with a troubled face and tugged at her sleeves, not wanting her to speak to Lin Mubai like this. However, Zi Ningshuang ignored her at all.
"Go into the house." Zi Ningshuang pushed Lin Ruoxue's body and let her into the house. Looking back at Lin Mubai standing in the courtyard, Zi Ningshuang sighed heavily and whispered: "Your Majesty, don't come here again
Already."
Zi Ningshuang turned around and entered the room. Lin Mubai stood there for a long time before slowly turning around and leaving with Yin Jianli.
In the calm days, Lu Zhiyao always felt a vague sense of fear in his heart. On this day, Lu Zhiyao took two maids out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and wanted to go for a walk on the street, but by chance, he met Lan Lan.
Ruo Ling, there were several prisoners with shackled hands and feet behind her.
Lu Zhiyao's eyes swept across the faces of those people unintentionally. When she saw the man walking at the end, her breathing stopped.
Staring straight at the man's face, Lu Zhiyao's strange reaction made Wan Yue and Yu Die curiously ask: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Zhiyao didn't answer and walked directly towards Lan Ruoling.
"Miss Lu." Lan Ruoling looked at Lu Zhiyao who was walking in front of her and greeted her softly.
Lu Zhiyao hummed, then looked at the prisoners behind her and asked, "Are they going to be executed?"
"No, we are taking them to the quarry in Lincheng."
"Then I won't delay you." Lu Zhiyao didn't say anything more and moved to the side. Watching Lan Ruoling and others leave, Lu Zhiyao watched for a while before having any other reaction.
He said to the two maids: "Go back home."
Lu Zhiyao was no longer in the mood to wander outside and returned directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Lu Zhiyao sat in the room with a cold expression.
On her wedding night, those gangsters who tore her clothes in jail were a shame that she would never forget in her life. And the man just now was one of the people who tried to destroy her that night, and all his looks had long since
It was deeply imprinted on Lu Zhiyao's mind, and she would not remember it wrong!
She had long thought about sneaking into the prison to kill them, but unfortunately she never had this chance. Unexpectedly, he actually came out of the prison!
Lu Zhiyao knew that the government often sent some prisoners to various places to help in quarries or other places opened in the name of the government. Therefore, they would not be able to come back for a while. Even if they died in
In a place like that, no one would think much about it.
Lu Zhiyao's expression has not been good since he met Lan Ruoling. The two maids stood beside him and did not dare to ask any more questions. They just muttered in a low voice and made random guesses on their own.
"Wanyue, Yudie." Just when the two of them were pushing each other and no one dared to come forward, Lu Zhiyao suddenly called them and asked: "The quarry in Lincheng, you guys
Have you heard of it?"
The two of them nodded in unison, and Wan Yue replied: "I heard someone mentioned that there seem to be many people here in the capital."
"I once passed by that huge quarry, but why did the lady ask about this?" Yudie then asked.
"Do you know where it is?" Lu Zhiyao was overjoyed. After seeing Yudie's admission, he whispered: "Well, prepare yourself and take me there tomorrow night."
Yudie looked at Lu Zhiyao suspiciously, wondering why she suddenly wanted to go to a place like that. After exchanging glances with Wanyue, the two went to work. When it got dark the next day, Lu Zhiyao immediately took her with her
Yudie set off.
Wan Yue was left behind, sitting alone in the room, waiting for Lu Zhiyao and Yudie to come back. Lu Zhiyao and the two left the Prime Minister's Mansion from the back door. After they were far away from the Prime Minister's Mansion and the sky became dark, Lu Zhiyao and others
After looking down, he slowed down. Grabbing Yudie's arm, Lu Zhiyao lifted her up and jumped up amidst Yudie's exclamations.
The wind whistled past her ears, and Yudie's heart beat violently. She hugged Lu Zhiyao tightly and did not dare to look down. Lu Zhiyao took her directly out of the city before stopping.
"Where are we going?" Lu Zhiyao let go of Yudie's body and asked softly.
Yudie looked around, calmed down her breathing, pointed in a direction, and said, "We should be there soon if we walk straight for more than half an hour. I passed by in a carriage with my mother that time, so I don't remember it as anything special.
Clear."
"Half an hour..." Lu Zhiyao murmured in a low voice, without saying anything else, and walked over. Yudie followed her, never daring to say anything, and just walked quietly with Lu Zhiyao.
Under the moonlight, the two of them slowly moved away from the capital. After stopping and walking, they finally arrived at the quarry.
Although it was already so late, the quarry was not quiet. Lu Zhiyao looked deeply at the entrance of the quarry, looked back at Yudie, and said, "Find a place to hide, wait for me
return."
"Miss!" Yudie grabbed Lu Zhiyao's sleeve with quick hands and asked uneasily the question in her heart. "What...are you going to do?"
Lu Zhiyao and Yudie looked at each other for a moment, then slowly lowered their eyes. Her tone was calm, without any fluctuation, and she whispered: "It's nothing, it's just revenge."
After Lu Zhiyao finished speaking, he quickly disappeared in front of Yudie. Yudie looked anxiously at the direction where Lu Zhiyao disappeared, took a deep breath, and found a place to wait for Lu Zhiyao to return safely.
Lu Zhiyao sneaked into the quarry and evaded the patrols. This is a royal quarry, so there are also some skilled guards. Lu Zhiyao walked towards the direction of the sound and pulled up his long hair.
, covering her face, scanning sharply every person who appeared in her sight, trying hard to find that man.
Lu Zhiyao searched for a long time and finally found him in a small crowd. Pulling out the sharp dagger from his waist, Lu Zhiyao was about to take action when he spotted Lan Ruoling's figure.
Didn't she go back tonight? Lu Zhiyao was a little shaken. If Lan Ruoling recognized him, Lin Yinan would definitely come to him again and ask why. But if she misses this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, maybe this person will die tomorrow
Being taken back to prison, I don’t know when I will see him next time...
Lu Zhiyao thought for a long time and made a decision. He must kill him. Glancing in the direction of Lan Ruoling, Lu Zhiyao rushed forward, like a sharp sword leaving the string, and the black shadow flashed in the dark night.
He passed by and jumped into the crowd.
Lu Zhiyao landed firmly behind the man and pulled his hair hard. The man's frightened shouts attracted the attention of others. In an instant, the crowd fled in all directions, looking timidly at Lu Zhiyao from a distance.
Zhiyuan and the man in front of her.
Lu Zhiyao did not hesitate, and wrapped the dagger around the man's neck and put it against his throat. "Don't move!" Lu Zhiyao threatened him in a cold voice. He felt the man's slightly trembling body and snorted.
Lan Ruoling had already realized something was wrong and ran over. Soon, she led people to surround Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao ignored those people, but the beast in front of him begged her for mercy, begging her not to kill him.
When he was there, Lu Zhiyao asked in a low voice, "When you forced me to death, did you ever think about letting me live?"
The shimmering blade cut the man's throat quickly and forcefully. Bright red blood spurted out, splashed in the air, and finally wet the ground under him. Lu Zhiyao pushed the man's lifeless body
, then stepped on his body and jumped into the air. Not intending to get entangled with Lan Ruoling and others, Lu Zhiyao held the murderous dagger in his hand, and his heartbeat began to accelerate again.
Every time she took action, Lu Zhiyao would feel like she could hardly control herself. Just like that time when she went to save Wanyue, she had never thought of killing so many people. But when she came to her senses, those people had already
He fell at her feet. Lu Zhiyao was afraid that something similar would happen again this time, so she wanted to leave here as quickly as possible so that her heart could calm down.
Lan Ruoling led her people to hunt down Lu Zhiyao, but unfortunately Lu Zhiyao's lightness skills exceeded their expectations. In addition, the person who was killed was not an important person, so Lu Zhiyao escaped directly from the quarry without anyone else.
Therefore, Lan Ruoling and others gave up after chasing for a long time without catching up.
Lu Zhiyao led those people in the opposite direction to where Yudie was hiding. After Lan Ruoling stopped chasing her and turned back, Lu Zhiyao slowly came to Yudie.
Yudie opened her eyes wide and looked at Lu Zhiyao's blood-stained hands and the bloody dagger. Her face suddenly turned pale. Without thinking, she took Lu Zhiyao's hand, her mind went blank, and she moved towards Jin.
Run towards the city.
After running for a long time, when Yudie felt it was a safe place, she stopped panting, turned around and looked at Lu Zhiyao again.
