Concubine in power

Ye Lianrong's body trembled violently when she was startled by Lu Zhiqing's words, and she almost fell off the stool.After stabilizing her body, Ye Lianrong opened her eyes wide, and looked at Lu Zhiqing with disbelief.

"It's the real mother, she said it herself." Lu Zhiqing nodded vigorously, forgetting the pain on her body and forgetting to cry. Lu Zhiqing moved to Ye Lianrong's side and whispered: "The person in the yard that night was her. That's right, she threatened me today that she would avenge her mother and her brother."

After hearing what Lu Zhiqing said, Ye Lianrong didn't make a sound for a long time.In other words, what happened today was probably planned by Lu Zhiyao... But what is the relationship between the Eighth Prince and her?

"Are you sure you heard it right?" Ye Lianrong asked worriedly.

"It's impossible to get it wrong!" Lu Zhiqing saw that Ye Lianrong didn't believe her, and became anxious. "Mom, why don't you believe me?!"

"The eighth prince really said to make Lu Zhiyao recover from his injury, and go to his house to find him?"

"Yes! Mother, what do you think is the matter between the eighth prince and her? Didn't I hear you say that the eighth prince never showed up easily? But he came to us today, and he specially gave Lu Zhiyao called the imperial doctor, I was really mad!"

Regardless of Lu Zhiqing's complaints, Ye Lianrong just thought about Lu Zhiyao's matter with trepidation.If Lu Zhiyao involved the Eighth Prince, then things would be difficult.If Lu Zhiyao's actions today were just the first step to avenge her mother, then she would definitely not let her go in the future.In other words, it's the two of them, only one can stay in this Prime Minister's mansion...

Ye Lianrong knew very well what the consequences would be if Lu Zhiyao revealed what she did back then.He is still a little jealous of people from his natal family, and he dare not beat himself easily.But when the time comes, Lu Yuanzheng will not just scold her like today and make her not eat and think about her mistakes behind closed doors.

Ye Lianrong remained silent, which made Lu Zhiqing anxious.Gently shaking Ye Lianrong's arm, Lu Zhiqing asked cautiously: "Mother, what are you thinking?"

Ye Lianrong slowly raised her eyes, meeting Lu Zhiqing's eyes.Uncomfortably moving her body, Ye Lianrong lowered her voice and said, "If what you said is true and Lu Zhiyao really wants to take revenge on our mother and daughter, then she won't be able to stay."

"You mean...kill her?" Lu Zhiqing blinked, and after seeing Ye Lianrong nodded, Lu Zhiqing continued: "That's good, but she's not as easy to deal with as before, we have to How do you do it? Didn't dad also say that he would send her into the palace to choose the crown princess?"

"Your father sent her to the palace because you couldn't go, otherwise how could it be her turn?" Ye Lianrong said with a bit of dissatisfaction and arrogance when talking about this matter: "It is considered that she has really entered the palace. , nothing will happen. I don't believe that she can always be defenseless. If anyone dares to spoil my good deed, I will definitely not let her have a good time!"

Ye Lianrong gritted her teeth and said solemnly.How could she let Lu Zhiyao ruin her hard work for so many years?The prime minister's wife, how much effort did she spend to snatch it?

"You fight me a bit in the future, don't let her take advantage of you, you know!" Ye Lianrong suddenly reached out and hit Lu Zhiqing's arm, causing Lu Zhiqing to yell unpreparedly. "Calling, screaming, you know how to scream! You know how to cry! Use your brains in the future, and if you let her figure it out again, I won't forgive you!"

Listening to Ye Lianrong's reprimand, Lu Zhiqing knew that she had made a mistake and suffered a loss today, so she nodded repeatedly, and promised that she would never make Lu Zhiyao so proud again.

Wanyue returned to the other courtyard, and happily told Yudie and Lu Zhiyao what she heard. The bright smile on her face made Lu Zhiyao, who was lying on the bed, involuntarily feel better.

When Wanyue was talking vigorously, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door.She closed her mouth and turned her head cautiously, only to see a few strange maids entering the room.

"Who are you?" Wanyue tilted her head and asked.

"It was the master who asked us to come and serve the young lady." The maid who took the lead bowed her head and said.

Lu Zhiyao's eyes swept over the faces of those people one by one, then looked at Yudie, and said softly: "You go and arrange things for them, just let Wanyue stay with me."

Although Lu Yuanzheng sent these people, Lu Zhiyao didn't trust them.In the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, how many people did not take Ye Lianrong's money?Among the few people today, maybe one of them is Ye Lianrong's eyeliner, she has to guard against it.

"Wanyue." Lu Zhiyao called Wanyue in a low voice, motioning her to bend down and listen to him.After Wanyue came over, Lu Zhiyao ordered: "Take care of these people, and tell me if you find anything wrong. They might belong to the second lady, understand?"

"Understood, leave it to me!" Wanyue rolled her eyes, said to Lu Zhiyao confidently, then pretended nothing happened, and continued to accompany Lu Zhiyao.

Although Wanyue is not as calm as Yudie, she is still very clever.She is much more dissatisfied with Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing than Yudie, and because of what Lu Zhiyao said to her before and what happened today, Wanyue believes more and more that Lu Zhiyao will definitely bring down those two people Yes, so her mood around Lu Zhiyao is naturally different.

Lu Zhiyao looked at Wanyue's smiling side face, and slowly closed his eyes in relaxation.This time Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing absolutely did not dare to do anything to her easily, what she should do right now was how to rescue Xiao Han.But that Eighth Prince shouldn't let go so easily...?

Lu Zhiyao rested for two days, and when the people in the mansion stopped paying attention to her as they did in the first two days, Lu Zhiyao began to plan to find Lin Yinan.Thinking over all the questions that Lin Yinan might ask, Lu Zhiyao thought of many answers, but when he saw Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao found that all his preparations in advance were futile.

As soon as she entered the room, Lu Zhiyao felt that cold gaze staring at her.The door behind him slammed shut, making Lu Zhiyao's nerves tense immediately.Looking around, she soon saw Lin Yinan.

Under the light of the pale yellow candlelight, Lin Yinan was lying sideways on the bed.Seeing that Lu Zhiyao came in, he didn't move, he just raised his head slightly and looked at her intently.

Lu Zhiyao took a few glances at Lin Yinan, then turned his head away uncomfortably.For some reason, every time she looks at this man, she always loses.

Lin Yinan looked at the woman who came late at night, and after a cold light flashed through his eyes, he returned to his previous appearance in the blink of an eye.

Lu Zhiyao stepped forward.Approaching Lin Yinan, he said in a low voice, "Lu Zhiyao has seen the Eighth Prince, and he came to disturb the Eighth Prince's rest at such a late hour, please don't..."

"How did you come here?" Lin Yinan interrupted Lu Zhiyao, his phoenix eyes raised slightly, and he asked, "It's so late, the Prime Minister sent someone to send you here, right?"

Lu Zhiyao gritted her teeth when Lin Yinan asked her. She also knew that coming here at this time would arouse his suspicion, and she also knew that this was not a good time.But apart from today, she didn't know when she would have to wait.Lu Yuanzheng will be sent to the palace tomorrow, and Lu Zhiyao doesn't even bother to think about the series of things after that.Come late at night, at least not let other people find out and suspect.As for this Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao couldn't care so much anymore.Anyway, he has something in his hands, doesn't he?

"My father didn't know I was coming."

"Climbed the wall?" Lin Yinan carefully noticed some dust on Lu Zhiyao's body, and slowly sat up straight. Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao with a half-smile, which made Lu Zhiyao purse his lips in embarrassment, and did not answer.

In the middle of the night, he climbed the wall and came out to find himself. Sure enough, it was because of that Xia Han, right?Lin Yinan gathered up the thin silk clothes on his body, as if waiting for Lu Zhiyao to confess.Lu Zhiyao waited for a long time but couldn't wait for him to say anything, so he had to start by himself.

"I have already brought the money you want, when can I take it away?"

"You can do it anytime, but I have to figure out some things." Lin Yinan was quite happy when he saw the bank note. "As long as you answer me, I will hand over the person to you."

Lu Zhiyao knew that Lin Yinan would not let go so easily, so he nodded helplessly. Lu Zhiyao secretly thought about the perfunctory answer to Lin Yinan.

"As far as I know, the two daughters of the Xia family should have nothing to do with you. Why are you so obsessed with this Xia Han?" This was something Lin Yinan couldn't figure out.

"The information about the eighth prince is wrong. I have always had a good relationship with Xia Yao, the eldest daughter of the Xia family. I know many things about her very well."

"Oh? Really?" Lin Yinan didn't expect that Lu Zhiyao would turn the topic to Xia Yao so directly, but Xia Yao was already dead, so no matter what Lu Zhiyao said, it was all right. . "Okay then, let me ask you another question."

Lin Yinan glanced vaguely at Lu Zhiyao's still-recovered hand, "What is the reason behind the design to frame Lu Zhiqing?"

He really saw his little tricks that day? !

Although Lu Zhiyao had considered this question before, when Lin Yinan really asked, Lu Zhiyao still felt a little dizzy.She lowered her head, her mind in a state of confusion.She didn't know much about Lin Yixiang before, and the few times she met, she was with Lin Yixiang.She only knew that his health was not good, worse than Lin Yixiang's.It seems that he is not one of the princes.But after so many things happened, Lu Zhiyao didn't dare to easily believe what Lin Yixiang told him.This Lin Yinan, who can be sure that he is not another dog of Prince Lin Yichen?Otherwise, why has he been praised by all the ministers, but he has always expressed that he has no interest in the throne?Lu Zhiyao didn't believe that those princes who grew up in the palace would dislike the easy-to-get throne.The one in front of him was just a wolf in sheep's clothing.There is no difference between him and Lin Yixiang.
