Concubine in power

Lu Zhiyao's dark eyes flashed with fear, and he wanted to take two steps to the side uncomfortably, but Lin Yinan refused to let her do so.Warm hands climbed onto Lu Zhiyao's waist, stopping Lu Zhiyao's actions, Lin Yinan's slightly raised lips made Lu Zhiyao indifferent.As soon as he raised his eyes, he could see himself in Lin Yinan's eyes.Breathing is only a few feet away.Lin Yinan whispered to her, and his intimate gesture made Lu Zhiyao feel for the first time that it took courage to talk with him at close range.

Unsurprisingly, the actions of the two were seen by Lu Yuanzheng and Lin Yixiang who came over there. Lu Zhiyao only wanted to distance himself from Lin Yinan. When she recovered, Lin Yixiang and Ye Lianrong , has stood in front of her.

Lin Yinan slowly withdrew his hand, stood beside Lu Zhiyao, glanced at Ye Lianrong indifferently, and then looked at Lin Yixiang.

"Eighth brother looks good. It seems that you returned to Beijing early this time for a reason." Lin Yixiang looked at Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao with a meaningful smile, his mind still stuck in the surprise that Lin Yinan just brought him .He and Lin Yinan grew up together, and it was the first time Lin Yixiang saw Lin Yinan so close to a woman.This made Lin Yixiang also worried about how Lin Yinan would react if he knew about that matter.

"It's good to be in a good mood, but you, Brother Seven, why don't you seem to have a good rest." Lin Yinan asked knowingly, and after Lin Yixiang and Ye Lianrong's expressions were a little bit wrong, he said leisurely: "But it's right to think about it. For the celebrities around the prince, how can it be possible to live a life of doing nothing and leisure like me every day."

The conversation between Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang made outsiders sound like two brothers chatting at all.All the people present had their own thoughts, Lu Zhiyao was thinking about what Lin Yinan meant when he said he wanted to help her just now, while Lu Yuanzheng and Ye Lianrong had their own worries and fears.

"Come back this time, do you still plan to leave?"

"Let's go, but we have to wait for a while and go back after dealing with some things."

Lin Yinan's answer aroused everyone's curiosity. What exactly did he mean?Every time Lin Yinan left the capital, he was escorted by someone personally arranged by the emperor.After such a toss, does the emperor have no objection?

"Could it be that the eighth brother came back because of Zhiyao?" Lin Yixiang asked jokingly, but Lin Yinan didn't deny it.

Lin Yinan smiled and said nothing, he didn't intend to answer Lin Yixiang, but he didn't seem to avoid it either.Lu Zhiyao accepted the gazes of Lin Yixiang and the others innocently, and muttered in his heart, the Eighth Prince really likes to make fun of her more and more.

"Master Xiang, my eighth brother and I have something to say, you should step back first."

Lin Yixiang's words made Lu Yuanzheng heave a sigh of relief, he nodded, and planned to leave with Ye Lianrong.But before he walked a few steps, he heard Lin Yinan's voice behind him.

"The second lady stays here, I still have something to say to you."

Lin Yinan asked Ye Lianrong to stay by name, Ye Lianrong suddenly stopped, her heart sank, she turned to look at Lin Yinan reluctantly.Lu Yuanzheng also turned his head, frowning to look at Lin Yinan, wondering what he meant.

Lin Yinan smiled calmly, looked at Ye Lianrong's nervous expression and said: "I heard that Zhiyao was not feeling well a few days ago, and the Second Madam specially invited Imperial Physician Su to come to her house to diagnose her pulse. See, what's wrong with Zhiyao?"

Lin Yinan took the initiative to bring up this matter, which Lu Zhiyao did not even think of.How did he know about this?

"Zhiyao is fine." Ye Lianrong answered Lin Yinan's question with a stiff expression.

"Really?" Lin Yinan raised his eyebrows lightly, and asked in disbelief: "Then why did Prince Mu come to me yesterday, saying that he heard some bad rumors about Zhiyao from the people at the Imperial Physician Hall? Does Second Madam know what's going on?"

Although Lin Yinan's voice was not loud, it had a boldness that could not be ignored and resisted.The faces of Ye Lianrong and the others, including Lin Yixiang, suddenly changed. Lu Yuanzheng hurriedly turned around and walked in front of Lin Yinan, and said with an apologetic smile, "Eighth Prince, you may have misunderstood something."

"I also know that there are some rumors that cannot be believed, so I came to ask the second lady today to find out. I have already met with the doctor Su, and he told me some things. I want to hear what the second lady has to say."

"Eighth brother, does the emperor also know about this?"

The smile on Lin Yinan's face completely disappeared, he didn't look at Lin Yixiang, and didn't answer Lin Yixiang's question, but just stared at Ye Lianrong quietly, which made Ye Lianrong more and more guilty, and finally felt like breaking the can.

Lu Yuanzheng has been the prime minister for so many years, and he has never been so embarrassed as he is now.Standing there with a gloomy face, he finally couldn't help but speak loudly, "Didn't you hear what the Eighth Prince asked you?"

Ye Lianrong was taken aback by Lu Yuanzheng's roar, and then looked at Lu Zhiyao resentfully.Lu Zhiyao was standing by Lin Yinan's side, and when the matter developed to this point, no matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Lin Yinan wanted to help him.But……

Lin Yinan turned his head and met Lu Zhiyao's eyes. "If the second lady doesn't say anything, then tell me what's going on."

In this case, what Lu Zhiyao should do most is to complain to her father and the two princes tearfully.And in normal times, Lu Zhiyao thought that she would definitely enter the state and perform vividly.But now, Lin Yinan was standing in front of her, playing the scene with her in a serious manner. For some reason, Lu Zhiyao didn't even feel like crying at all, which made her very annoyed.

Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yinan, then at Ye Lianrong over there, finally lowered his eyes weakly, and bit his lower lip.She was trying her best to brew her emotions, and when Lu Zhiyao was thinking about whether she should think of a way to make herself cry, she suddenly felt a pain in her waist!

Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao stood side by side, he looked at Lu Zhiyao's tangled look, and quietly touched Lu Zhiyao's waist with his left hand.

Lu Zhiyao gasped, his eyes turned red immediately after being pinched by Lin Yinan.Opening her eyes wide, when Lu Zhiyao saw the half-smile expression on Lin Yinan's face, she gritted her teeth and recorded the account for him.

Lu Zhiyao took two steps forward, walking a little further away from Lin Yinan.Looking at the few people with tears in his eyes, Lu Zhiyao said aggrievedly: "At first, I thought that the rumors would slowly disappear in a few days, but I didn't want to. The trouble became bigger and bigger, and even Prince Mu knew about it. Prince, Zhiyao considers himself to be upright and upright, so I ask you to make decisions for me in this matter, and I must investigate to get to the bottom of it!"

When Ye Lianrong heard Lu Zhiyao's words, she felt that she had a tendency to want the villain to complain first, so she quickly knelt down and said, "I also have something to say."

Lin Yinan's actions made one have to suspect that he wanted to fight with the Prince's faction.Otherwise, this kind of scandal can be solved by going to Lin Yixiang in private behind the back of outsiders.But now, in front of Lu Yuanzheng, an outsider, he wanted to clarify the matter, which even Lin Yixiang didn't expect.And Ye Lianrong, as a member of the prince's faction, knew in her heart at this moment what she should say and what she should not say.At this time, she must not tear Lin Yixiang out. As for the fact that Lu Zhiyao was pregnant, she can tell it first. First, she can prove that what she said is not a lie, and second, she can push the matter to Su Changfei. Said he spread the matter.

"I came to see Su Changfei because I really wanted to show Zhiyao her body. She couldn't eat at all, and her complexion was not as good as before. My master and I were very worried about her, so I asked Brother, I brought in the Imperial Physician Su who had treated my father before. But the truth of the matter surprised all of us."

"Continue talking, how can you be surprised?" Lin Yinan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a cold voice.

"Eighth Brother, let's go back and talk about this!" Lin Yixiang couldn't help but interjected, frowning.

"She's not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Lin Yinan rolled his eyes and knelt there, Lu Zhiyao, who was still working hard to act, asked Lin Yixiang.The sly light in Lu Zhiyao's eyes inadvertently made Lin Yinan feel more confident, and he came to accompany her to perform this scene with the mentality of watching the fun.

"I, I dare not say it." Ye Lianrong shook her head, the words that Lu Zhiyao was pregnant kept stuck in her throat, making her extremely uncomfortable.She really wanted to tell everything without any scruples, so that this dead girl would never have a chance to fight against her again.But she was even more afraid that once she said everything, even if Lu Zhiyao was destroyed in the future, Lu Yuanzheng would never treat her like before.Ye Lianrong was tormented by this conflicting mood, finally, under Lin Yinan's anger, Ye Lianrong gritted her teeth and spoke.

"Zhiyao's child is so ignorant. It's a good thing her father and I trusted her so much before, so we didn't believe the rumors outside!" Ye Lianrong gave Lu Zhiyao a look of being deceived, " Imperial physician Su said that day that Zhiyao's various behaviors were all due to her happy pulse. I was terrified at the time, but who is Imperial physician Su? How could he have misread it? So I had to take money to send him away Sent him away, and told him again and again not to tell anyone about this matter. No, he still passed on the word without hesitation. Seventh prince and eighth prince, please read the words that our master has worked so hard for the court these years For the sake of this, Qing Rao Zhiyao this time!"

Lu Yuanzheng was so frightened by Ye Lianrong's words that his back shivered, and he said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, Zhiyao hasn't left the cabinet yet, how could there be a happy pulse!"
