Concubine in power

Ye Chengnan wanted to question Lu Zhiyao's words, but Lu Zhiyao immediately suppressed them.Lu Zhiyao would say these things to him, it was definitely not accidental or unintentional, she must have known something before she dared to do this!

Ye Chengnan looked at Lu Zhiyao with a guilty conscience, and remained silent.

"What's wrong with uncle? Do you really know something?" Lu Zhiyao tilted his head and asked curiously.

"Nonsense, who do you think I know? How could I know such a thing!"

Ye Chengnan gave Lu Zhiyao a sideways look, and left angrily.Lu Zhiyao waved his hand at Ye Chengnan's back, and said leisurely: "Uncle, go slowly, if you are idle and bored, you can come to Zhiyao again!"

"Miss, the money you got back last time, it can't be... all of it is his?" Wanyue asked Lu Zhiyao in a low voice after Ye Chengnan walked away.After Lu Zhiyao nodded in acknowledgment, Wanyue froze for a moment, then chuckled.

Ye Chengnan bumped into a wall with Lu Zhiqing and Lu Zhiyao one after another, and left the Prime Minister's mansion directly without going back to see Lu Zhiqing and Lin Yixiang.After Lu Zhiqing had dinner at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she followed Lin Yixiang back to the palace.Constantly thinking about what Ye Lianrong taught her, Lu Zhiqing sneaked a glance at Lin Yixiang from time to time.

As soon as Lin Yixiang returned to the palace, he saw a person who surprised him at the gate of the palace.

"Brother Huang, you are back!" Lin Ruoxue hurried forward, stopped in front of Lin Yixiang, looked at Lin Yixiang and Lu Zhiqing behind him.When her eyes stopped on Lu Zhiqing's veiled face, Lin Ruoxue was obviously taken aback.

"Why is Xiaoxue here?"

"I'll come and see the emperor's brother and the emperor's wife." Lin Ruoxue heard that the new seventh concubine was the second daughter of the prime minister's family, that is, Lu Zhiyao's younger sister, so she ran over curiously.

Lu Zhiqing quickly stepped forward and greeted Lin Ruoxue respectfully.Lin Ruoxue and Lu Zhiqing drew closer, staring intently at the veil on her face, and said with a simple smile: "It seems that my sister-in-law must be as beautiful as a fairy. It's not easy for ordinary people to take a look at her face."

Lin Ruoxue's words made Lu Zhiqing's face darken immediately, Lin Ruoxue noticed her frown and panicked.Could it be that she said something wrong that made the emperor's wife angry?

"How long has Xiaoxue been waiting here? Why didn't you go into the house and wait." Lin Yixiang walked over and separated Lin Ruoxue and Lu Zhiqing, "Go, I happen to have something for you."

"Really?" Lin Ruoxue raised her face with anticipation.Looking at Lin Yixiang and nodding, he forgot the embarrassment just now, followed Lin Yixiang and left.

Lu Zhiqing looked at Lin Ruoxue's back and snorted coldly.Back in his room, he tore off the veil from his face and threw it on the ground, making the maids in the room too scared to breathe.

Lin Ruoxue followed Lin Yixiang to a room filled with many good things. Seeing the exquisite and small rapier delivered by Lin Yixiang to her, Lin Ruoxue opened her eyes wide.

This sword is different from the ones you can usually see. Not to mention that it is a lot smaller, the scabbard is also white, and there are a few gems inlaid on it, which looks elegant and agile.Lin Ruoxue slowly drew out the blade, looked at the sharp blade, and took a deep breath.

"I heard people say before, you go to pester your father, saying that you want to find a master to teach you martial arts. So I specially found someone and gave you a sword. Although it is not a famous sword, it should not Too bad."

"Thank you, Brother Huang!" Lin Ruoxue's thoughts were all written on her face, and after fiddling with the sword for a while, she turned her head to look at Lin Yixiang again. "By the way, Brother Huang, is sister-in-law the prime minister's daughter?"

"That's right, what's wrong?"

"Is it Lu Zhiyao's younger sister?"

Lin Yixiang didn't expect her to ask such a question, and nodded hesitantly, "Do you know that Lu Zhiyao?"

"I know! She is my savior!" Lin Ruoxue spoke impatiently, and then stuck out her tongue, refusing to say anything more.When Lin Yixiang asked for the truth, Lin Ruoxue also used the word "secret" to evade the past.

"In short, I like Lu Zhiyao very much. Otherwise, if I am bored in the future, I will come to chat with Mrs. Huang, okay?"

"Of course, you can come here whenever you want."

Lin Yixiang couldn't be happier that Lin Ruoxue often came to him. After seeing Lin Ruoxue off, Lin Yixiang suddenly thought of Lu Zhiyao.I vaguely feel that this Lu Zhiyao is not ordinary.

Ever since Lu Zhiqing married the Seventh Prince, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been lively for a while.Lu Zhiyao didn't think there was anything bad about it, but occasionally when he met Ye Lianrong, Ye Lianrong would stare at him fiercely, or hit him directly.

Lu Zhiyao smiled calmly, not being provoked by her, and said nothing.Until seven or eight days later, a major event happened in the capital.

An old official in the court was found dead beside the eighth prince's mansion. As soon as the news came out, many people panicked immediately.

At the dinner table, Lu Yuanzheng's worried appearance made Ye Lianrong smile without a trace.

The person who died happened to belong to the Eighth Prince's faction. He had been a minister in the court for many years and had always advocated the removal of the Crown Prince and the establishment of the Eighth Prince. Therefore, his death caused quite a stir.What's more, he didn't die at his own home, nor did he die of old age or illness, but was killed by someone, and his body was thrown near the back door of the Eight Emperors' Mansion.Ye Lianrong naturally found out about such big news when she went out to play cards.

"Master, why do you seem to have something on your mind?" Ye Lianrong asked with concern.

"It's alright, let's eat."

Lu Yuanzheng said it was fine, but Ye Lianrong didn't intend to stop just like that.Ye Lianrong glanced at Lu Zhiyao who was also at the dinner table. Ever since Lu Zhiqing got married, Lu Yuanzheng had stipulated that everyone should gather for dinner.This made Ye Lianrong never get full from the first day to now.When she saw Lu Zhiyao's charming face, she couldn't eat anything!

"Master, when I went out today, I heard people say something big happened in the court, is it true?"

"You, a woman, don't inquire about matters in the court!" Lu Yuanzheng was annoyed by this incident. Hearing Ye Lianrong's persistent question, he answered her sharply, then dropped his chopsticks and left.

Lu Zhiyao looked at Ye Lianrong's expression with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and sighed softly after Lu Yuanzheng walked away.

Lu Zhiyao's sigh turned Ye Lianrong's attention back to her, "Why are you laughing! Let me tell you, Lu Zhiyao, the person who died today belonged to the Eighth Prince. In my opinion, it was you This broom star is too close to the Eighth Prince, so he brought all the bad luck to the Eighth Prince!"

The eighth prince's person?

Lu Zhiyao's eyes flashed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became a bit ironic. "I really don't know when Erniang will learn to speak well. Others always say that I, Lu Zhiyao, are a bastard, but I always want to ask Erniang, why have I killed so many people with my bad luck all these years?" Is there nothing wrong with Erniang?"

"You dead girl, you dare to curse me to death, don't you!?"

"Erniang is wrong. I just want to say that Erniang should think about it first when she speaks in the future. Whether she should say this or not. You just said that I brought all my bad luck to the Eighth Prince, so is that what you mean by that? , the Eighth Prince will soon be like that dead old minister? Isn’t Er Niang cursing the Eighth Prince? I don’t know what the Eighth Prince will think if this word reaches the ears of the Eighth Prince.”

"You don't spitting blood!" Ye Lianrong couldn't say anything about Lu Zhiyao's glib mouth, and there were other servants in the room, she also wanted to preserve her image and not get angry at will.After all, her daughter is now an imperial concubine, which is different from the past.

"Whether I'm spitting blood or not, Erniang will know if she thinks about it carefully. I'm full too, so let's go first, and Erniang eats slowly."

Lu Zhiyao got up and walked out of the room, standing outside the door, thinking about what Ye Lianrong said.

I don't know, who is this dead person?

"What did you find?" Lin Yinan raised his eyes, looked at Ling Yi and Lan Ruoling in front of him, and asked in a low voice.In the depths of the black eyes, murderous intent flashed faintly.

"I didn't find anything." Ling Yi shook his head feebly, "It's just that what is certain now is that it wasn't the prince or the seventh prince's cronies who did it."

"Focus on investigating the crown prince and the queen. Lin Yixiang doesn't need to bother now. He just married Lu Zhiqing, and it will take some time to deal with the ministers who come up to please him. He won't do such a thing. Besides, he doesn't have the guts to do that Do."

"Master, do you mean that the empress and the crown prince have started to attack you again?" Lan Ruoling felt uneasy, looking nervously at Lin Yinan's seemingly calm expression, she asked in a low voice.

"You two just go and find out who killed the old man, don't worry about the rest." Lin Yinan didn't answer Lan Ruoling's question directly, but said: "Go out, and invite the outsiders in by the way."

Lan Ruoling and Ling Yi were stunned for a moment, and then walked out of the room one after another.After seeing Lu Zhiyao in the corner of the yard, they were a little surprised.

The sky was dark, and Lu Zhiyao leaned against the corner with his petite body, which was hard for others to notice.

Lu Zhiyao watched the two of them look at him, and smiled embarrassedly.I wanted to sneak over to have a look, but I overheard their conversation unexpectedly.

"Master let you in." Lan Ruoling stared at Lu Zhiyao closely, and after seeing her enter Lin Yinan's room, she asked Ling Yi beside her suspiciously. "Master won't really treat this Lu Zhiyao?"

Ling Yi shook his head, he had doubts like this before, but after such a long time, Ling Yi was not as flustered as he was at the beginning. "The master is a person who knows what he should do and what he should not do."

"That's right, even if it is, it has nothing to do with us." Lan Ruoling shrugged and followed Ling Yi and left.

Lu Zhiyao entered Lin Yinan's room, saw Lin Yinan sitting by the window frowning slightly, then turned to look at herself, she walked over slowly, and said, "It's hard to see your frown so tightly." of."
