Concubine in power

Chapter 126 Trial

Lu Zhiyao was full of thoughts on Jiang Wei, he didn't want to reach the sky in one step, but he couldn't waste too much time on him.Lu Zhiyao sat on the chair with a serious expression, until Lan Ruoling appeared, saying that he wanted to see her.

Because Lu Zhiyao was touched by Lin Yinan twice recently, whenever he mentioned anyone related to Lin Yinan, he felt lingering fear.Nodding to let Wanyue bring Lan Ruoling in, Lu Zhiyao saw her frowning and staring at him as soon as she entered the room, and asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"

"Master, I have something to bring to you." Lan Ruoling glanced away, and Wanyue left the room consciously.When only she and Lu Zhiyao were left in the room, Lan Ruoling lowered her voice and said, "The Eighth Prince said, before we get married, I told you not to think about Jiang Wei. He also said that this person, he will help You get rid of it."

Lan Ruoling's words made Lu Zhiyao's heart sink again and again, what was she thinking, how could Lin Yinan be so clear?Also, what does it mean for him to help her get rid of Jiang Wei?

"Did the Eighth Prince say anything else?" Lu Zhiyao was silent for a while, and couldn't help but ask.

"The eighth prince said, if you have anything else you want to ask, you might as well go directly to the mansion and ask him." Lan Ruoling conveyed Lin Yinan's confession to Lu Zhiyao verbatim, and saw that Lu Zhiyao's face really appeared. Yes, Lin Yinan's expected expression, he honestly shut his mouth and didn't ask any more questions, Lan Ruoling smiled slightly and said: "I have something to do in the yamen, so I'll go back first."

Lu Zhiyao sent Lan Ruoling away, recalling what Lan Ruoling said just now.Lin Yinan seemed to be afraid that she would forget that they still had a marriage contract, reminding her all the time that she would marry into the Eight Emperors' Mansion soon.Lin Yinan had mentioned to Lu Zhiyao before that he still had some things to tell her about the Xia family, but he kept silent.He couldn't figure out how Lin Yinan knew so much, but Lu Zhiyao was sure that Lin Yinan would intervene in her affairs, and there must be a reason.This also made Lu Zhiyao even more curious about what Lin Yinan wanted to do.

Lu Zhiyao pondered Lin Yinan's thoughts and concentrated her attention. When she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, she didn't pay attention, just thought it was a maid going in and out.However, when Yin Jianli stood in front of this man, Lu Zhiyao's mind went into chaos for a moment.

What is he doing here?

Yin Jianli watched Lu Zhiyao stand up from the chair quickly, and looked at him guardedly without speaking.He said coldly, "My lord wants to see you, pick a time to come to Prince Mu's mansion, remember, don't bring anyone with you."

After Yin Jianli finished speaking briefly, he disappeared happily.But the chill on his body remained in Lu Zhiyao's room.

Lin Mubai wants to see him?Didn't he just meet me a few days ago?You are not allowed to bring anyone to Prince Mu's mansion. Yin Jianli doesn't look like he walked in from the main entrance of the Prime Minister's mansion ostentatiously. Lord Mu doesn't want others to know that he met him. Why?Have you provoked him recently?

Yin Jianli did not tell Lu Zhiyao the specific time to go to Mu Wang's Mansion, that is to say, she could go there anytime, and Lin Mubai was staying in Mu Wang's Mansion.This feeling of knowing that there are tigers in the mountain, but still insisting on walking towards the mountain made Lu Zhiyao feel very uncomfortable.After walking out of the room, she looked up at the sun, thinking that she should go back to the room and sleep.Because you have enough spirit, you can have physical strength to meet the enemy.

"Yudie." Lu Zhiyao stopped Yudie who was busy in the yard, "I'll sleep for a while, remember to call me after an hour, I have something to do, don't forget."

"Okay, I see." Yudie nodded, watched Lu Zhiyao enter the room, and then went back to busy with the matter at hand.

Lin Yinan was called into the palace by the emperor, and stayed in the imperial study for a long time. When he came out, the sky was already gray.Walking slowly in the palace, Lin Yinan did not expect to run into Lin Yixiang by such a coincidence.Seeing Lin Yixiang's surprised expression, Lin Yinan smiled slightly.

Lin Yixiang looked at the direction Lin Yinan was coming from, and asked in a low voice, "Is your father summoned?"

"Yes." Lin Yinan didn't want to hide anything, so he answered him directly. "Ask me how I am doing recently."

"I didn't expect my father to care about you." Lin Yixiang said with a chuckle, whether the strange tone was ridicule or pure envy, it was hard to tell for a while. "I'm going to the queen, I won't see you off."

"That's right." Lin Yinan turned to stop Lin Yixiang after he walked a few steps away.Facing Lin Yixiang's suspicious gaze, Lin Yinan asked unexpectedly: "Do you still remember how you felt when you met Xia Yao for the first time?"

Lin Yixiang didn't understand, Lin Yinan mentioned Xia Yao politely, and asked him what the question meant.And Lin Yinan looked at his confused expression, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Just pretend I didn't ask."

Lin Yinan turned around and left, and within a quarter of an hour after returning to the Eight Emperors' Mansion, Ling Yi reported with a cold face: "Prince Mu's people are asking to see you."

"Please come in." Lin Yinan sat up straight, looked at the person who walked into the room, smiled and said nothing.

Yin Jianli stood at the door and didn't go any further.Looking at Lin Yinan from a distance, he said in a clear voice, "Prince Mu wants to see you."

"Now?"

"Yes." Yin Jianli lowered his eyes and added, "Miss Lu family has also been invited."

Lin Yinan listened to Yin Jianli's words calmly. After Yin Jianli left the room, he stood up slowly and walked outside the door.

"He's already gone." Ling Yi frowned at Lin Yinan and asked, "Master, do you want me to go with you?"

"No need." Lin Yinan rejected Ling Yi's proposal, stood there with his hands behind his back, thought for a moment with downcast eyes, and then ordered: "I don't know when I will come back, you guys remember, you must not go to Prince Mu's Mansion, do you know?"

Ling Yi nodded reluctantly, watched Lin Yinan's back as he walked away, and sighed worriedly.

On the way to Prince Mu's Mansion, Lin Yinan thought of many possibilities.After seeing Lin Mubai and Lu Zhiyao who were also in the room, Lin Yinan went straight to Lin Mubai.

"Sit down." Lin Mubai said before Lin Yinan, pointing to the chair next to his left hand.

The arrival of Lin Yinan made Lu Zhiyao, who had been interrogated by Lin Mubai for a while, feel that things were getting worse.

Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan were sitting on the left and the other on the right. Lin Mubai's cold eyes moved slowly between them, and then asked Lin Yinan a question. "The matter of the Ye family has something to do with you two?"

It's not unusual for Lin Mubai to know that the Ye family's affairs have caused a lot of trouble in the city during this period of time.He brought both Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan here today, so he must have some evidence, otherwise it would be impossible for him to ask this straight to the point.So Lin Yinan heard what he said, and said without denying it: "It has something to do with it."

"Then the king will ask you again, those members of the Xia family hidden in your house, what's the use of them if you want them?"

Lin Mubai's question made Lu Zhiyao stunned for a moment.He just kept questioning her about the Ye family, without mentioning Xia Han and the others at all.When did he find out about this?What are you trying to do by bringing her and Lin Yinan here?

Lin Mubai glanced at Lu Zhiyao's subtle changes in expression and movements, and then understood that she also knew about this.Originally, when the accident happened in the Ye family, Lin Mubai felt a little strange.The Ye family has maintained a very stable position for so many years.It will never be said that it will not be reused all at once.So he asked his confidants to investigate this matter, but unexpectedly, he found out a more surprising secret.

As if he had done something bad and was caught on the spot, Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao with a bit of a headache, then looked at Lin Mubai, and said, "So the emperor knows all about it."

"How long do you think you can keep it a secret?!" Lin Mubai was slightly annoyed, wondering if Lin Yinan was secretly using him to do something.He didn't want to interfere with the affairs of the Xia family, because it was very troublesome and complicated.What was Lin Yinan thinking?Lin Mubai found that he was a little confused.

"Of course it's possible to hide it from others, but it's a bit more difficult to hide it from the emperor." Lin Yinan flattered him, wondering what he should say.Casting his gaze on Lu Zhiyao, Lin Yinan looked at Lin Mubai in embarrassment, and asked, "Can the uncle let her go out first?"

Lin Mubai glanced at Lu Zhiyao, and asked Yin Jianli to take her out.Lu Zhiyao reluctantly left the room and stared at the door closely, wanting to eavesdrop on what the two people in the room would say.But with Yin Jianli by her side, she didn't dare to do that.Lin Yinan clearly knew his identity, and also knew that he cared deeply about everything about the Xia family, so he deliberately kept himself from knowing.What is his secret? !

"What's the purpose of your coming back to Beijing early this time?" Lin Mubai continued to ask without waiting for Lin Yinan to answer his questions about Xia's family first.

"I came back to get married with Zhiyao, and it has nothing to do with those people in my house." Lin Yinan answered Lin Mubai calmly. He met Lin Mubai's eyes and said, "I don't want to hide the truth from the emperor. Xia Han was picked up from the street by me. She was captured by human traffickers, and I happened to meet her. As for the others, they also came to my house by chance. General Xia is a loyal minister, so I Only then are you willing to take this risk and hide them by your side."

"A loyal minister?" Lin Mubai smiled coldly, leaned back in his chair and looked at Lin Yinan, and said, "Don't tell me those high-sounding words, I'm not interested in what kind of person Xia Zhenkun is, and I don't believe you will just say that." I went to save the people of the Xia family for no reason. I just ask you, what is your purpose for keeping them? You dragged me into trouble before, but you already have a conspiracy to use me?"

"The emperor's words are serious, how dare I hit the emperor's idea."

"Don't dare? Is there anything you two dare not do?"
