Chapter 1171: Before the Flower and Under the Moon
The signs and tokens in the palace belong to which nobleman, no one dares to guess, as for who is in the carriage, the soldiers guarding the city will not ask, more than one thing is better than less thing, just let it go.
After the gale had driven the carriage into the city, it slowed down, picked a secluded path, and finally came to a halt in an alley.
Zhou Tianqi gently shook Lin Wan in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Wan'er, let's go to Zhou Tianhong's mansion to have a look, it is said that Lu Zhenting and Lu Manting have already entered the Great Prince's Mansion, but they haven't come out yet." ”
Lin Wan opened his eyes, his head was still a little groggy, and after listening to Zhou Tianqi's words, he slowly sorted out his thoughts before nodding and said, "Okay, let's go and see what Zhou Tianhong and Lu Manting are doing." ”
Zhou Tianqi hooked his lips and smiled, leaned into Lin Wan's ear, and whispered: "This is close to the Seven Princes' Mansion, go sleep in my mansion tonight, okay?"
Lin Wan was stunned, blinked his eyes, thought for a long time, and finally did not agree, nor objected, turned his head to Bing'er and ordered: "Bing'er, you and Gale Wind go back first." Take the antidote to Xiaoqi first, detoxify the poison of the hidden soul, and report it in time if there is any problem. ”
Bing'er nodded and replied solemnly, "Yes, miss, don't worry." ”
The gale lifted the curtain outside, Zhou Tianqi helped Lin Wan get out of the carriage, and then grabbed Lin Wan's waist, and with a little tiptoe, he was already on the eaves.
Lin Wan had already prepared, closed his eyes, hugged Zhou Tianqi's waist, and felt the wind whistling in his ears, rising and falling. After a while, it had already landed in the courtyard of the Great Prince's Mansion.
This is the first time Lin Wan has entered the Great Prince's Mansion, he doesn't know where he is, he raised his eyes and looked at the environment around him, only to find that he and Zhou Tianqi were landing on the roof of a palace.
Zhou Tianqi seemed to sit on the glazed tiles on the roof of the main hall easily, with his back against the high ridge, with a faint smile on his face, not at all like he was here to listen to the corner of the wall, but more like he was taking Lin Wan to spend the moon before the moon, which felt very comfortable.
Lin Wan's feet did not land, but sat on Zhou Tianqi's lap, shrunk in Zhou Tianqi's arms, and did not dare to move.
Zhou Tianqi gently removed a piece of glazed tile, which happened to be in the center of the main hall, and he could clearly see the situation in the hall and vaguely hear the conversation of the people in the hall.
I saw four people sitting in the hall, Zhou Tianhong and Lan Ziling were sitting on the main seat, and Lu Zhenting and Lu Manting were sitting on the left. Lin Wan frowned slightly, leaned over, and listened.
"Cousin Manting is too careful, since I handed over the things to you, how could I send someone to spy on you? Moreover, it is even more impossible for me to send someone to save Lin Wan'er, and I also injured the people of your Lu Guo Mansion. In my opinion, someone must be trying to deliberately drive a wedge between our Great Prince's Mansion and the Lu Guogong Mansion, so that we are suspicious of each other and mess with ourselves. This is Lan Ziling's voice, she is unhurried, she said slowly, it is reasonable, and Lu Zhenting and Lu Manting can't help but believe it.
Lu Manting frowned and looked at Lan Ziling, her eyes were full of inquiry, she felt that Lan Ziling was right, but if it wasn't Lan Ziling, who would it be? The man in black said that they were only interested in what Lu Manting was interested in, but apart from Lan Ziling and Zhou Tianhong, who else knew the origin of the thing in her hand?
Seeing that Lu Manting was deep in thought, Lan Ziling couldn't help but chuckle and shook her head, and continued: "Cousin Manting, maybe we both underestimated each other's abilities and strength. It was not an easy task to get rid of her. This time, not only did she not hurt her in the slightest, but she was bitten back, and even my father and emperor have begun to suspect your Lu family. It seems that we should be more careful in the future, and if we do not have a perfect strategy, we must not act rashly. ”
Lu Manting snorted coldly and said, "I have long known that she is not so simple, so I let the leader of the secret guard with the highest martial arts skills beside my father personally go out." But he didn't expect that not only did he not succeed, but he also lost his wife and soldiers. ”
Zhou Tianhong sighed lightly and frowned: "In a few days, they will have to leave the capital, and we must not let them reach the imperial city of Xiling Kingdom safely." If they are allowed to merge with Ximen Yuqing, I am afraid that things on Brother Ziheng's side will not be easy to handle. ”
Lan Ziling nodded slightly, and said, "Brother Huang has repeatedly explained that he must find a way to make Lin Wan'er and the Seventh Prince unable to go to Xiling Kingdom, even if they pay some price, they will not hesitate." ”
Lu Zhenting has been frowning, and he is still worried about the poison in Chen Susu. If it was really not Lan Ziling's hand, then the hope of getting the antidote would be even slimmer.
Lan Ziling, a woman, has always been incomprehensible to Lu Zhenting, although she is more calm than Lan Ziyue, even Lan Ziheng and Zhou Tianhong now trust Lan Ziling more and do not let Lan Ziyue interfere in this matter. However, it was precisely because Lan Ziling's city mansion was too deep that Lu Zhenting and Lu Manting couldn't trust her even more.
The hall suddenly fell silent, they had a common enemy, a common goal, but they could have their own hearts and suspicions.
After a while, Lu Zhenting finally couldn't sit still, since he couldn't get the antidote from Lan Ziling, he had to find another way. So, he stood up, wrinkled his brows, and said in a deep voice: "Hong'er, you are now in the mansion to keep your head in the house, wait for the opportunity, don't give up your efforts." This matter, don't come forward, it will be arranged by our Lu family, and Lin Wan'er and Zhou Tianqi will definitely not be allowed to arrive in Xiling Kingdom alive. ”
Lu Manting frowned and glanced at Lu Zhenting, wanting to say something but stopping, as if she wanted to say something, but felt that it was not appropriate to say it at this moment.
Zhou Tianhong smiled, waved his hand to Lu Zhenting, and said, "Thank you, uncle, for thinking about Hong'er everywhere, Hong'er is very grateful." ”
Lu Zhenting nodded lovingly, looked at Lan Ziling's lower abdomen, and admonished: "Hong'er, the fetus in Princess Ziling's womb is very important, and it is an important opportunity for you to make a comeback in the future, you must be more attentive and protect their mother and son." ”
Zhou Tianhong nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "What Uncle said is that Hong'er will not be careless, and will definitely be more careful and protect Ziling." ”
Lu Zhenting nodded, didn't say anything more, took Lu Manting to say goodbye to Zhou Tianhong, and walked outside the hall.
Zhou Tianhong and Lan Ziling sent Lu Zhenting and Lu Manting's father and daughter to the door, and after watching them leave, they returned to the hall. Zhou Tianhong grabbed Lan Ziling's waist, carefully cared for her and walked back to the hall, sat down on the wide seat, and then let Lan Ziling sit on his legs, gently held her in his arms, stroked her lower abdomen with his big hand, and said softly: "Concubine Ai, in the middle of the night, it is really difficult for you and the child to wake up from the bed, it is really difficult for you, hard for you." ”
