"Let's go." Lin Yixiang's expression changed, not like the hot appearance that he had just chatted with a few people, and he turned around and left after saying a word in a cold voice. Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan glanced at each other, and they didn't know why he changed all of a sudden, but they didn't think much about it, and took Lin Ruoxue to follow.

When they arrived at the place, everyone was almost there, just waiting for the emperor to appear. Lin Yinan and Lin Yixiang came in together, which immediately attracted the attention of many people. Lu Zhiyao stood behind Lin Yinan, glanced at those who had their own thoughts, and found tonight's protagonist, Liu Yiyu, without much effort.

Liu Yiyu was talking to Liu Shengyuan at this time, and Jiang Wei and his daughter Jiang Han were still standing beside him. Hearing that the lobby was quiet for a moment, Liu Yiyu turned her head curiously, wanting to see who was coming, but she didn't expect to see Lin Yixiang.

Although there is a distance between Lu Zhiyao and Liu Yiyu, she has never seen Liu Yiyu's mind so clearly as she does now. The mist under Liu Yiyu's eyes made Lu Zhiyao's chest slightly stuffy. Slowly retracting his gaze, Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Yixiang again, and then lowered his eyes.

This is the best friend she has ever had.

This is the man she used to love the most.

"Far away."

The deep voice was remembered in his ears, and Lu Zhiyao's slightly cool hand was suddenly held by a warm palm.

"This is not the place to be in a daze."

Lin Yinan blocked Lu Zhiyao's sight with his body, smiled lightly and lowered his head to look at Lu Zhiyao, and teased: "So listless, others don't know what to do, and they still think that you have been wronged in my Eighth Emperor Mansion." It's not very kind for you to do that. ”

"Are you still afraid of misunderstanding?" Lu Zhiyao smiled maliciously, and when Lin Ruoxue poked her head to hear what the two of them were whispering, she whispered: "But it's good to let others see it, lest you beat me up again when you don't like it in the future." ”

Lin Ruoxue's brows furrowed violently with Lu Zhiyao's words, and looked at Lin Yinan incredulously, Lin Ruoxue stared at him with an unfamiliar look for a long time, and then stretched out her hand to pull Lu Zhiyao to her side, and said to Lin Yinan: "My eighth sister-in-law and I went over and sat first." ”

Lu Zhiyao stuck out his tongue at Lin Yinan with a smile in his eyes, Lin Yinan's helpless expression made her feel a lot better, and followed Lin Ruoxue to the side, Lu Zhiyao asked herself cautiously in Lin Ruoxue, "Eighth sister-in-law, starling won't really be rude to you, right?" ”

"What do you think?" Lu Zhiyao couldn't help but laugh at Lin Ruoxue's expression, and asked a question without answering. "When your starling is angry, it's scary, and when you have the opportunity, you can also see it, how about it?"

"Forget it." Lin Ruoxue shook her head curtly, "Starling usually has such a good temper, I really haven't seen him angry." But as the saying goes, the more good-tempered people are, the more they can't be messed with, and when I think that starlings will be angry, I feel quite scary. ”

"Where did you hear that?"

"Forget." Lin Ruoxue sighed, her eyes began to roll, and she whispered to Lu Zhiyao: "I don't know what the Emperor of the Daoist Father called me here for, I can't eat enough every time I have this kind of occasion." Eighth sister-in-law, wait a minute, while no one is paying attention, let's go find my mother, okay? ”

"As long as you can run away, I'll accompany you."

After Lu Zhiyao said this, the emperor and queen had already walked into the main hall. Everyone also took their seats, and Lu Zhiyao felt a little funny when he heard what Lin Yunlong said.

The Qing Ming Kingdom was silent at that time, and directly sent an army to attack the city gate. Now that he has only sent two messengers, Lin Yunlong is going to say good things like this. Of course, Lu Zhiyao didn't think that Lin Yunlong was really like what he said, and hoped to make friends with the Qing Ming Kingdom, otherwise he wouldn't have secretly asked Lin Yinan to train those troops.

Lin Yunlong's polite words gradually made Lu Zhiyao lose interest. And Lin Ruoxue, who was sitting next to Lu Zhiyao, felt even more bored. Just waiting for a while to start eating, Lin Ruoxue looked straight at the small table in front of her with her eyes and swallowed her saliva.

Everything seemed to be so natural, until Lin Yunlong talked to the envoy of the Qing Netherworld in a brisk tone, and he heard that the emperor of the Qing Netherworld had not yet established a posthumous matter. Lu Zhiyao's attention was immediately attracted to the past.

Lin Yunlong's meaning couldn't be more obvious, he wanted to send a woman to the emperor of the Qing Netherworld, and moreover, he gave it to his own daughter.

As soon as Lin Yunlong's words came out, Lu Zhiyao immediately turned his head to look at Lin Ruoxue. Lin Ruoxue also felt that something was wrong and became uneasy.

Tugging the corner of Lu Zhiyao's clothes, Lin Ruoxue looked worried and scared.

Lu Zhiyao shook his head and signaled Lin Ruoxue not to be nervous first, after all, there are so many emperor's daughters, and he may not really choose Lin Ruoxue. What's more, Lin Ruoxue is protected by Zi Ning Frost and Lin Mubai, even if the emperor really plans to do so, those two people will not agree.

Lu Zhiyao and Zi Ning Shuang had not dealt with each other a few times, but Lu Zhiyao felt in his heart that Zi Ning Shuang would not be a simple person.

Lin Yinan also vaguely heard Lin Yunlong's words, and sat there expressionlessly, until Lin Yunlong left. Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao and said silently, "Let's go too." ”

Lin Yinan stood up after a while. Lu Zhiyao followed closely, holding Lin Ruoxue's hand and wanting to leave here, Lu Zhiyao, who had been pondering what the emperor meant by those words just now, did not notice the subtle changes in Lin Yinan.

In fact, Lu Zhiyao had never noticed another envoy sent by the Qing Netherworld to accompany Liu Yiyu into Beijing. But Lin Yinan noticed it, and he also noticed that something was wrong.

From the first time the man saw Lu Zhiyao, the light flashing in his eyes made Lin Yinan's heart move. Then he looked at Lu Zhiyao's eyes from time to time, which also made Lin Yinan uncomfortable. It's just that Lin Yinan couldn't figure it out for a while, why did he focus on Lu Zhiyao?

Out of the main hall, several people all breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Ruoxue opened her mouth in a complicated mood, and asked Lin Yinan in a low voice, "Starling, what did my father mean by what he said just now?" ”

She was the only princess present today, which made Lin Ruoxue have to think more.

"Your mother won't bear to marry you so far away, don't worry." Lin Yinan glanced at Lin Ruoxue and replied, "Let's go, take you to meet your mother, and then we'll go home." ”

Lin Ruoxue didn't say anything more, and went all the way back to the place where Zi Ningshuang lived, and when she saw Zi Ningshuang, she pounced.

"Thank you two so much these days." A smile appeared at the corner of Zi Ningshuang's mouth, sat on the chair, looked up at Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao, and asked, "Is Xiaoxue in trouble?" ”

"Don't worry, she is obedient, for fear that I will send her back if she is not honest." Lin Yinan pretended not to see Lin Ruoxue's sharp gaze, and Zi Ningshuang proposed: "Why don't you let Xiaoxue stay in the palace tonight, and I will come to pick her up tomorrow morning, how about it?" ”

"Then I'm bothering you." Zi Ningshuang hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"It's not troublesome, I think Xiaoxue should have something to say to you." Lin Yinan did not directly tell Zi Ningshuang what happened at today's banquet. After saying a few words to Zi Ningshuang, he left with Lu Zhiyao.

The two walked on the way back, Lu Zhiyao turned his head to look at Lin Yinan, and asked softly: "Actually, it is possible that the emperor really wants to send Xiaoxue to the Qing Ming Kingdom, right?" ”

Even if there are two obstacles, Zi Ning Frost and Lin Mubai, it is not impossible.

Lin Yinan glanced at Lu Zhiyao with a heavy gaze, and said quietly: "I think the purpose of letting Xiaoxue enter the palace today is to let her know first, and also to plan for the future." ”

"You mean, the emperor is really ready to let Xiaoxue marry into the Qing Netherworld? But Lord Mu will definitely not agree! ”

"What if you don't agree, he won't oppose after all."

There are some things that Lin Yinan didn't tell Lu Zhiyao, although everyone in the know knows that Xiaoxue is the child picked up by Zi Ningshuang, but Lin Yunlong, who has always thought so much, how could he easily believe her words. After all, when Zi Ningshuang appeared in the capital back then, she already had Lin Ruoxue by her side. Maybe in Lin Yunlong's heart, he has always felt that Xiaoxue is Lin Mubai's daughter, not necessarily. But Lin Yinan felt that this possibility was not too big, if Lin Mubai was really Xiaoxue's father, then no matter what, he would never let Ziningshuang's mother and daughter live in the palace for so long.

Lu Zhiyao wanted to ask something, but after seeing the person in front of him, his pace slowed down.

Lin Yinan looked at Lu Yuan's line of sight and saw Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuo'er, as well as the crown prince Lin Yichen.

The other party also spotted them, stopped, and deliberately waited for them to pass.

It was the only way out of the palace, and Lu Zhiyao and the two had no way to leave by detour. Thinking that there was no need to avoid them, he walked over slowly.

"Eighth brother, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Lin Yichen's eighth brother made the atmosphere a little weird all of a sudden.

"It's been a long time." Lin Yinan smiled slightly and said, "The last few times I entered the palace, I haven't been able to meet the crown prince and queen. If you are free another day, you must go to the queen to say goodbye. ”

"It's enough for the eighth brother to have this heart, you have always been in poor health, so it's better to rest in the house. I'll go see you another day. ”

Lin Yichen also smiled, and then looked at Lu Zhiyao. He had heard a lot of things about Lu Zhiyao these days, and now seeing this woman standing there without speaking, soft and quiet, Lin Yichen was a little skeptical about the truth of those words.

"It's not too early, go back quickly."

With Lin Yichen's words, Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan naturally would not stay any longer. Leaving without looking back, the two whispered in a low voice from time to time, and the back made Nangong Nuo'er look at it in her eyes and worry about it.

"Why are you so kind to them?" Nangong Nuo'er looked at Lin Yichen unhappily and said coldly.
