Concubine in power

Lin Yinan raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhiyao, then turned his head to look at the deep night outside, and asked, "Is there something important for coming here so late?"

"No." Lu Zhiyao answered simply, staring at Lin Yinan's obviously unhappy face, walked over, stood beside him and said, "I just heard some news, so I wanted to come and see if there is anything I can do. Help."

"Sit down and talk." Lin Yinan didn't look up at her again, but waited for Lu Zhiyao to sit on the chair before slowly asking: "How do you know? Your father said it?"

Although the death of He Gusong was shocking, it was not to the point where even the woman living in the house knew about it.It only took one day. After discovering the corpse in the early morning, Lin Yinan ordered Lan Ruoling to remove the corpse immediately and clean up the scene. Therefore, some people in the court probably didn't know about it, or they heard about it but didn't know it. Confirm the authenticity.As the prime minister, Lu Yuanzheng knew about it immediately, because after He Gusong died, someone needed to take over many things.

"My father didn't say anything, it was my second mother who said it." Lu Zhiyao smiled slightly and said, "My second mother went out to play cards with others today, and she came back tonight and told me."

When Lin Yinan heard Lu Zhiyao say that Ye Lianrong knew about this, he immediately sighed softly. "If she knows, then the whole capital will know soon. But why did she tell you this?"

Lin Yinan saw Ye Lianrong thoroughly, and Lu Zhiyao couldn't help laughing when he heard it.Thinking about the reason why Ye Lianrong told him this, Lu Zhiyao's eyes darkened, he shook his head, and did not tell Lin Yinan. "That's not important. I just want to ask if the Eighth Prince needs my help. If it's really aimed at you, it will be somewhat inconvenient for people around you. I'm an outsider, so no one should notice."

"That's right. Who would have thought that the prime minister's daughter would be an expert."

"Is the Eighth Prince a compliment or a mockery?"

"Of course it's a boast. My subordinates have been defeated by you one after another, how can I mock you." Lin Yinan's brows gradually relaxed while he was talking to Lu Zhiyao. "Nothing has been found about this matter now. If it is useful to you, I will tell you. If you want to help at that time, I will not make it difficult for you."

"If what the Eighth Prince said just now was not a sarcasm, then this sentence must be." After Lin Yinan finished speaking, Lu Zhiyao raised his eyebrows.She stood up, glanced at Lin Yinan's deep black eyes, turned and walked towards the door. "I, Lu Zhiyao, will definitely pay back what I owe. You have helped me too much. I owe you this."

"Then you are not afraid that if you get involved in this matter, you may offend someone you can't afford to offend, and you will not be able to be a famous prime minister's daughter in the future?"

Lu Zhiyao stopped slowly, turned his back to Lin Yinan, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes. "The leaves will be proud when they are in power, and they will be prestige when they are frustrated. Year after year, they always repeat this truth. People will stand on a high place because they climbed up step by step from a low place. Standing too high Yes, there will always be a day when you fall. So not only me, I think the Eighth Prince has already made plans in his heart. Everyone will have a good time, but once you really fall, you will find that it is actually nothing, as long as your head If not, life must go on.”

The former Xia family, the former Xia Yao, who dares to say that it is not beautiful?

She was once said to be the number one beauty in the country of Xia Lai, with peerless beauty and an enviable family.She married the man that most women in the capital are looking forward to marrying. The red silk on the ten-mile long street has made many women red-eyed.But in the end?So she was no longer afraid of all of this.Because she firmly believed that even if she fell to the bottom and was trampled under her feet, she would always get up again and return everything they had given her to them.

Lu Zhiyao stepped out of Lin Yinan's room. Lin Yinan didn't say anything to her, didn't get up to send her away, but just sat there quietly, thinking over and over again what Lu Zhiyao said just now.

As long as the head is not lost, life has to go on.

What did this girl go through to make her say such words?Lin Yinan suddenly felt that he really wanted to know.

When He Gusong died, many people's attention fell on Lin Yinan and Lin Yichen.Anyone who understands knows what's going on. He Gusong had proposed to the emperor long ago that Lin Yichen should be abolished and Lin Yinan should be established. Therefore, once He Gusong died, it was hard for people not to suspect Lin Yichen.

But Lin Yichen, like everyone else, was at a loss about this matter.

Although He Gusong is old, his official position is also great.

When the Taiwei died, those who supported Lin Yinan with him felt angry and worried.After Lin Yichen found out about this, he immediately went to all his subordinates and asked them all.But this matter was not done by any of them.

Confused, Lin Yichen found the queen, Nangong Liuxi.Nangong Liuxi's reaction was the same as Lin Yichen's.

"Even though my mother disliked him a long time ago, she also thought about getting rid of him. But this time it really wasn't her mother's fault."

"That's strange, then who could have helped us so much?" Lin Yichen's cold eyes flashed a hint of disbelief. He did a good deed without taking credit, which is not in line with the character of those people.

"Wait and see what happens, maybe it's just an accident." Nangong Liuxi also pondered for a moment, and then said to Lin Yichen: "At this critical juncture, you must remember to manage your people well, and don't let them make any mistakes. Otherwise, people from Lin Yinan's side will definitely catch him."

"My son understands!"

"It's good to understand, the day is getting hotter and hotter, Lin Yinan is not far away from the day of Lijing. You find a time, let Lin Yixiang go over to find out what he has to say, and see what he knows about this matter."

"Mother." Lin Yichen did not immediately nod in agreement, but said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I always feel uneasy about keeping Lin Yixiang by my side."

"What do you mean? What did he do?"

"I didn't do anything, but he and Lin Yinan are brothers after all. I always feel that he had other motives for agreeing to stand by our side."

After hearing Lin Yichen's reason, Nangong Liuxi smiled softly. "Chen'er, it's not that the queen mother is talking about you, but that you are still too single-minded now."

"What does the queen mother say?"

"In the face of power and money, family affection is nothing to worry about. Look at the princes in this palace, which one of them is not your relative? You are not the only son of the mother, but what is the relationship between the second prince and you?" , don’t you understand? Look at your father, didn’t he ever have a brother? Remember, you are the one who wants to be the emperor, so don’t think too simple about some things, understand? Lin Yinan sent double the amount of poison into his body back then. We knew about this, didn't Lin Yixiang know? Lin Yinan now has to go out to recuperate every summer, more because he doesn't want people to see his miserable appearance He won't live long, Lin Yixiang chose you and me, it's a wise move."

"The queen mother means that Lin Yixiang is a trustworthy person?" Lin Yichen nodded and continued to ask.

"Wrong, the meaning of the mother is to tell you that you must be on guard against others. Even if Lin Yixiang has done many things for you, you should be wary of him. After all, you have not yet sat on the throne. But if you are Since he is Lin Yinan's elder brother and doubted his words, the queen mother felt that there was no need to do so."

"My son understands!"

"Well, step back, it's getting late, the queen mother is going to rest."

A few days after He Gusong's death, another person was killed in the same way.Moreover, this person once mentioned in front of everyone that the Eighth Prince is better than the Crown Prince.

If one person's death was an accident, then the second person's death is definitely not so simple.

Lin Yinan saw the bodies of these two people with his own eyes, and they all died at the hands of one person.The hidden weapon enters from the throat and exits from the back of the neck.It is not difficult to see that the murderer is a rare master, at least the internal force is very strong.

Everyone in the court was panicked, and in the Eight Emperors' Mansion, the people around Lin Yinan were also on high alert.I'm afraid that the next target of this villain will be their master.

Compared with the others, Lin Yinan was not nervous at all.Drinking tea, reading books and taking walks every day, there is nothing missing, which makes a few people very worried.

The news of the successive deaths of two ministers quickly reached the ears of many people.After hearing this, Lu Zhiyao also felt depressed for a while.But after all, this matter has nothing to do with her. She also approached Lin Yinan to express her attitude. If he doesn't seek her, there is no need for her to meddle in her own business.

"Why does Yudie seem to be very busy recently?" Lu Zhiyao sat on the rocking chair, looked at Yudie who just came back from outside, and asked softly.

"Yeah." Yudie smiled embarrassedly, then walked to Lu Zhiyao's side, and explained: "Master has taught me a lot recently, so please forgive me for not being able to serve you well."

"What are you talking about? It's enough to have Wanyue by my side. But you have to be careful when you walk around by yourself every day."

"I know, I will pay attention." Yudie nodded, and then said thoughtfully: "The capital seems to be not very peaceful recently."

"Oh? How do you say that?" Lu Zhiyao's eyes lit up and he asked curiously.

Yudie bit her lip and looked at Lu Zhiyao, then looked around, and said in a low voice cautiously: "Listen to what my master said."

"Your master? Then what else did he say?" Lu Zhiyao became interested and brought Yudie into the room. "By the way, Yudie, I have never heard you mention what kind of person is this doctor who teaches you medical skills. Why don't you take him back to the mansion when you have time, so that I can entertain him once, thank you for accepting my maid As a disciple, what do you think?"
