Concubine in power

After listening to Lu Zhiyao's words, Yudie smiled a little embarrassedly. "Miss is serious, how dare I bother you."

"You are serious, it's just a meal, if he doesn't come, don't we have to eat everything?" Lu Zhiyao glanced at Yudie with a little reproach, and continued to ask: "By the way, Yudie , I have never heard you say that this old gentleman who teaches you medical skills is which doctor in the city? Or, which pharmacy is it? "

"This..." Yudie thought about it seriously, then shook her head, "I haven't heard him mention it."

"Then how did he tell you that the capital is not peaceful recently? What else did he say?" Lu Zhiyao asked the question he wanted to ask the most, but he didn't hold out too much hope. After all, the dead thing, Many people already know it.

Yudie took a deep breath with a dignified expression, and stared into Lu Zhiyao's eyes. Yudie thought for a moment, and then she made up her mind and said, "Master didn't let me say it, but I heard Wanyue say , the two ministers who died recently seem to be related to the Eighth Prince, so I think it's better to tell Miss."

Lu Zhiyao's eyes flashed at Yudie's words, and he sat up straight and stared at her intently.

"The master didn't actually say anything, but there was one sentence that I found quite strange. He said... the wolf is going back to the capital, and the capital will definitely not be peaceful during this period, so let me be careful."

"Does he know that you are my maid?"

"He knew that I was a slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he also asked who my master was. Because when I met him before, he often went to collect medicine for you. At that time, he still laughed at me, saying that I was not selling medicine Yes, why do you always pick those kinds of medicinal materials? I didn't think much about it. Seeing that he didn't look like a city man, I told him casually, saying that it was for you, Miss, and he didn't say anything after that. .”

Bad wolf is going back to Beijing?What exactly do these words mean?Is it related to the two recent murders?

Lu Zhiyao thought about it thoughtfully, and felt that the old man was a bit interesting.Yudie is just a little maid, even if there is a big disturbance in the capital, what does it have to do with her?Unless something happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it might affect her...

Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, then stood up from the chair abruptly.

"Miss, what's the matter?" Yudie asked nervously looking at Lu Zhiyao's uneasy gaze.

"It's okay, you go out first, let me think about it." Lu Zhiyao's mind was a little confused, who is this Yudie's master?Was what he said to Yudie meant for Yudie, or did he want Yudie to bring it to him?The evil wolf returns to Beijing... Many ministers in the court are in Beijing, and many are dispatched to various places. Which wolf is he referring to?

Lu Zhiyao didn't know much about the affairs of the court, and Lu Yuanzheng usually didn't say anything when he came back, his mouth was very tight.Ye Lianrong may know something, but it is impossible to tell herself honestly.I'm afraid Lin Yinan is upset, and Lu Zhiyao doesn't want to bother him with anything.So for the rest, who else can tell her what she wants to know?

Lu Zhiyao kept trying to search his mind for someone who could tell her some news.Finally, after thinking for a long time, she thought of Lan Ruoling.

Lan Ruoling can be regarded as a member of the imperial court. She runs out every day and knows a lot of news. It shouldn't be difficult to find her.

After thinking about it, Lu Zhiyao immediately did it.After leaving the prime minister's mansion alone, Lu Zhiyao walked towards the yamen in the northwest direction.Seeing that he had already reached the door, he almost asked the guard at the door where Lan Ruoling was, but Lu Zhiyao suddenly saw someone she didn't want to see.

"What are you doing here?" Yin Jianli frowned, and Lu Zhiyao, who was about to open his mouth to say something, walked slowly to her side, and asked in a cold voice.

Seeing that it was Yin Jianli, Lu Zhiyao swallowed the words that were on his lips.The enemy's road is narrow, and I didn't expect to meet him here.

Lu Zhiyao just lowered his head and didn't answer.Yin Jianli looked at Lu Zhiyao's silence, and a sarcastic smile slowly rose from his mouth.

"Isn't it because you want to come to the Yamen to inquire about when Chu Ziqian will come back?"

Yin Jianli still thinks that Lu Zhiyao and Chu Ziqian are adulterers. To some extent, this is a good thing for Lu Zhiyao, so she is not going to quibble.

"I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first." Lu Zhiyao whispered to Yin Jianli, turned around and wanted to leave.

Yin Jianli looked at Lu Zhiyao's back, snorted coldly, and warned: "You'd better be honest, if Chu Ziqian really has the courage to come to the capital again, then he will definitely not be able to leave."

Lu Zhiyao turned his back to Yin Jianli, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up into a disdainful smile.The Beauty Pavilion and Chu Ziqian are the same, who will Yin Jianli show as a gentleman?

Yin Jian walked away from watching the landing, so he continued to go to his own business.Lan Ruoling, who was hiding in the dark, came out only after the two of them left completely.

"What did that woman tell you just now?" Lan Ruoling asked the guard at the door.

"Just left without saying anything."

What is Lu Zhiyao doing here all the time?Did he really come to find himself?

Lan Ruoling was puzzled, but she didn't take the initiative to ask Lu Zhiyao for clarification.She was busy until the evening, when she returned to the Eight Emperors' Mansion and inspected around the Eight Emperors' Mansion. After finding no suspicious person, Lan Ruoling walked into Lin Yinan's other courtyard.Looking at Ling Yi who was guarding Lin Yinan's gate, he asked, "Did anything happen today?"

"Nothing happened, don't worry."

Lan Ruoling nodded, and said: "Then I'll go back first." But after taking two steps, she stopped again, turned her head to look at Ling Yi, and asked, "Is the master asleep?"

"It's definitely not at this time, what do you need to do with him?"

Lan Ruoling hesitantly hummed, walked back to Lin Yinan's door, knocked on the door, and walked in.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Lin Yinan had already heard Lan Ruoling's conversation with Ling Yi just now, he put down the book in his hand, and looked up at her.

Lan Ruoling told Lin Yinan about Lu Zhiyao's visit to the yamen today, and Lin Yinan smiled slightly after hearing this. "I see, you step back."

After dinner, Lu Zhiyao sat under the tree in the yard, with his arms around his knees, his chin resting on his knees in a daze, and the cool breeze blew by, making him extremely comfortable and comfortable.

"Miss, be careful of catching a cold!" Wanyue and Yudie stood on the left and on the right, fearing that Lu Zhiyao's body would feel unwell.Lu Zhiyao was nagged too much by them, so he had no choice but to stand up.Looking at the two with dimly lit eyes, Lu Zhiyao asked with a smile on his lips, "Tell me, what will you two do if everyone in the capital says that I am an adulteress in the future? "

"It doesn't matter! It's not that Miss has never been told before!" Wanyue answered bluntly without thinking, and Yudie immediately raised her hand and slapped her on the back, and Wanyue realized it later.

"Miss, did something happen? Who's chewing his ears in front of you again?" Wanyue shrank her neck uncomfortably, and asked cautiously.

"You're right, I'm used to it anyway, so it doesn't matter anymore." Lu Zhiyao calmly breathed a sigh of relief, "Nothing happened, it's just my random thoughts and random questions. Let's go, let's go back to the room."

"I'll boil water for Miss, and rest after bathing." Yudie turned and walked out of the yard, Wanyue followed quickly, leaving Lu Zhiyao back to the room alone.

Lu Zhiyao had just entered the room, and within a moment, he heard the door being opened.She thought it was Wanyue who came back, but she didn't pay much attention.While taking off his coat and throwing it on the table, he waited for Wanyue to come in.But when she saw who the person entered the room, she couldn't help taking two steps back, looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?"

The expression on Lin Yinan's face became embarrassing and stiff for a moment. Looking at the gown on the table, Lin Yinan coughed lightly, and then teased: "If you don't come now, why don't you come in later when you take a bath?"

"You actually eavesdropped on us." Lu Zhiyao curled his lips, grabbed the gown and put it on again frantically.

A smile flashed across Lin Yinan's eyes, and after Lu Zhiyao finished dressing, he walked over and sat down on the chair, "You're an incompetent 'harlot', why are you so nervous?"

"It seems that the eighth prince came here just to tease me?" Lu Zhiyao sat down beside Lin Yinan, poured him a cup of herbal tea and handed it to him.

Lin Yinan took a sip, then turned to look at Lu Zhiyao. "I thought you were going to buy me wine."

"Eighth Prince, don't be joking, have you ever seen a teapot filled with wine. Besides, I am a bold drinker with a small capacity for alcohol. If I usually open my mouth to drink, I am afraid that the whole Xiangfu will have been turned upside down by me."

"You know it too." Lin Yinan thought about Lu Zhiyao's drunk appearance, and replied meaningfully, which made Lu Zhiyao feel a little awkward.

"What's the purpose of the Eighth Prince's visit?" Lu Zhiyao thought of the business and asked with a serious expression.

"Didn't you have something to do with me?" Lin Yinan asked back, after seeing Lu Zhiyao's confused face, he frowned slightly, "Then why did you go to the yamen to find Lan Ruoling?"

Lu Zhiyao was startled, he didn't expect Lin Yinan to know everything. "I wanted to ask Miss Lan for help with something, and I didn't want to ask the Eighth Prince for you."

"She can help you, so this prince can't?" Hearing what Lu Zhiyao said, Lin Yinan felt a sense of loss in his heart for some reason.

Lu Zhiyao carelessly didn't notice the displeasure in Lin Yinan's words, sighed heavily, and said, "However, the Eighth Prince is so helpful, so I'll just ask you directly. Eighth Prince, do you know if there is anything wrong with you recently?" Officials sent abroad want to come back to Beijing?"

Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao with deep eyes, and couldn't guess what kind of tricks this girl was going to play, so he asked in puzzlement, "Why are you asking this?"
