"Why do you ask this?" Lu Zhiyao suddenly asked about the matter of the DPRK, Lin Yinan thought about the news he got recently, and said: "There are indeed people who want to come back, but few people know this, who did you listen to?" ”

"Who's back?!" Lu Zhiyao asked anxiously, and after hearing Lin Yinan say that he was from the Nangong family, Lu Zhiyao gasped.

Queen Nangong Liuxi is the representative of the Nangong family. In Xia Laiguo, as long as the Xia family is mentioned, you have to think of the Nangong family. Because the Nangong family, like the Xia family, has made great contributions to the Xia Lai country.

Xia Zhenkun was named "General of Zhenguo" by the emperor, and Nangong Liuxi's father and elder brother were also generals who threw themselves into the battlefield and killed countless enemies. And the Nangong family is stationed at the border all year round, so there is no need to say much about their importance. Nangong Liuxi is also backed by the entire Nangong family, so she has been able to go all the way smoothly for so many years, from entering the palace to becoming the queen, no one has dared to do anything to her. The people of the Nangong family can indeed be called "evil wolves", but Lin Yinan said that few people know about this news, so how did the master of Yudie know about it?

"How did you investigate the deaths of the two adults?" Lu Zhiyao lowered his voice and asked Lin Yinan. After seeing Lin Yinan slowly shake his head, Lu Zhiyao sighed lightly. "It seems that this peaceful day is indeed coming to an end."

"How do you say that?"

Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Yinan, and she couldn't say a lot of words. To say that others may really not know the temper of the Nangong family, but Lu Zhiyao knows it very clearly. Because the Nangong family and the Xia family are equally famous, there are often people who compare these two families together in the past, and the names of Xia Zhenkun and the queen's father, Nangong Qingyun, often pop out of the mouth of the same person.

But no matter what others say, the Xia family used to be on the side of the prince, so they naturally faced the Nangong family, and they were inferior to them in private. But the people of the Nangong family were so arrogant that Lu Zhiyao felt a little unbearable. The queen's elder brother, Nangong Lingfeng, has been in front of the Xia family more than once, and the Ming Dynasty sarcastically said that Xia Zhenkun is not worthy of being called the "General of Zhenguo", and Xia also fought with Nangong Lingfeng because of this matter, and was punished by Xia Zhenkun after the most reluctance, these are all seen by Lu Zhiyao with his own eyes. Therefore, after the Xia family was destroyed, Lu Zhiyao doubted many times whether this matter had anything to do with the Nangong family.

"It's a trivial matter for the queen's family to come back. Not to mention you royal relatives, I'm afraid even my father will have to go to curry favor when the time comes. Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes and said perfunctorily with a smile. But the hollowness in his eyes has not disappeared.

Lin Yinan knew that she didn't tell the truth to herself. Quietly looking at her, it seemed that he wanted to see through her heart, to see what she was thinking at this moment.

"Did the Eighth Prince ever think that it was possible for the two ministers to be killed...... Is it the Nangong family? ”

"Girl, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense." Lin Yinan's eyes flashed, warning the distance of landing. "If these words reach the ears of the queen, the prime minister's mansion will be finished."

"I haven't told outsiders what I'm afraid of." Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lin Yinan, and suddenly remembered a possibility. The people of the Nangong family are all so arrogant, and they all know about the battle between the prince of the Dao Dao and the eighth prince, so even if they want to give Lin Yinan a dismount before coming back, it is not impossible, isn't it?

Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao for a while, didn't say anything, stood up and walked out of the door. Lu Zhiyao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up to send it, and when he walked to the door, Lin Yinan suddenly stopped, making Lu Zhiyao almost bump into it.

Lin Yinan slowly turned sideways, and his gaze leisurely probed into Lu Zhiyao's eyes. He didn't say anything, just looked at her. The posture is obviously elegant and leisurely, but Lu Zhiyao has to be nervous.

There was a faint sound of the footsteps of the moon and the rain butterfly outside the door, and after Lin Yinan heard it, he turned around again, turned his back to the distance of landing, and said softly: "As you said, I did help you a lot." But Lu Zhiyao, you still owe me an explanation until now. ”

After Lin Yinan said such inexplicable words, he pushed the door and walked out. Let Wanyue and Yudie, who had already entered the courtyard, be stunned for a moment, and quickly ran to Lin Yinan to salute. Lin Yinan's footsteps did not stop, and he passed them directly. Lu Zhiyao stood inside the door, looking straight at Lin Yinan's back, looking at his clothes flying in the cold wind, and his mood was a little heavy.

Interpretation? What explanation did he want? Even if she explained and told the truth, who would believe it?

"Miss, when did the Eighth Prince come?" Wanyue walked up to Lu Zhiyao with a smile and asked in a brisk tone. "If I knew that my sister and I would come back later!"

"What do you think!" Lu Zhiyao raised his hand and knocked on Wanyue's head, pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, showed a wry smile, and returned to the room.

After Lin Yinan left the Prime Minister's Mansion, he kept thinking about what Lu Zhiyao had just said. People from the Nangong family? He really didn't expect them to be in the capital, could it be that now in this capital, there are really people from the Nangong family who have taken the lead and come back......

Nangong Liuxi has been in a good mood for the past two days, for no other reason, just because of her brother, Nangong Lingfeng is coming back, and she will be able to reach the capital in less than three days.

With the maid by his side, Nangong Liuxi came to the imperial garden for a walk that he hadn't been to for a long time. After sitting for less than half an hour, she got up and wanted to go to the study to see the emperor, but halfway through, she ran into Lin Mubai.

The two walked face to face, and both stopped at the end.

"It's really not easy for Lord Mu to enter the palace." The corners of Nangong Liuxi's lips curled, and a faint smile appeared on her delicate and luxurious face. But the words that came out of his mouth were a little inconsistent with this smile. "Look at the place where the prince is going, it doesn't seem like he is looking for the emperor?"

Lin Mubai stood with his hands in his hands, looking at Nangong Liuxi, who had nothing to say, and didn't bother to perfunctory her. "It's really not to see the emperor."

"That's right, who doesn't know that when the prince enters the palace, nine times out of ten he goes to see the little princess." Nangong Liuxi always smiled, and the corners of his mouth maintained a perfect curvature. looked at Lin Mubai in front of him and said, "Lord Wang, this palace has a question for you." ”

"If the queen has anything to say, just say it."

"What has happened in the capital recently, has the prince paid attention to it?"

"Isn't the queen referring to the death of the Taiwei?" Lin Mubai didn't understand the reason why Nangong Liuxi asked him about this, he looked at Nangong Liuxi and nodded, and asked rhetorically, "What does the queen mean?" ”

Nangong Liuxi looked around vigilantly, then took another step forward, narrowed the distance between him and Lin Mubai, and said cautiously, "This palace just wants to know if this matter has anything to do with Lord Mu." ”

As soon as Nangong Liuxi's words were finished, Lin Mubai chuckled unceremoniously, and Nangong Liuxi was a little embarrassed. "Does the queen think that those two died at the hands of the king? So why did Ben do this? Because you want to help the queen and the crown prince? I'm sorry, but this king has never had this idea, and probably won't in the future. ”

Nangong Liuxi's smile slowly disappeared, and Lin Mubai's tough tone made her very dissatisfied. "So what Prince Mu means by saying that you want to help the Eighth Prince? Otherwise, how could he interfere in the marriage of the Eighth Prince? ”

"I didn't expect the queen to even know about this, but unfortunately, this king has no intention of wanting to help the eighth child. It's just that I can't get used to some people's practices and push the scourge to the side of the eighth, so I just said a few words. But after all, he is the emperor's son and has nothing to do with me, so this matter still depends on the emperor's meaning. ”

"So, then Ruoxue is not the daughter of the prince, why is the prince so partial to her?" Nangong Liuxi asked one by one, and when he saw the chill rising in Lin Mubai's eyes, he regretted asking this matter a little. But Yin Jianli behind Lin Mubai and the palace maids beside her were all staring at her, and she couldn't lose the queen's face, so she gritted her teeth and asked again. "The prince is not afraid, will the gossip in the harem hurt the princess and Concubine Ning?"

Lin Mubai's expression froze, his eyes sharpened and Nangong Liu Xi looked at each other, and said softly: "There is never a shortage of gossip in the harem, I understand this truth, and Concubine Ning has been in the palace for so many years, and she knows it better." This king came to see the princess, that is the king's business, and what you want to say is also your business. But it is better not for me to hear your words, and it is better not to reach my ears. Otherwise, I will not spare those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic and talk nonsense. ”

Lin Mubai's voice was very soft, but between the words, there was an inviolable momentum. After finishing speaking, Lin Mubai looked away and looked at the road ahead. Not ready to say anything more to Nangong Liu Xi, Lin Mubai moved his footsteps and strode away.

Nangong Liuxi stood in place, for this Lin Mubai, it was not the first time she had looked at him unpleasantly. With a cold snort, Nangong Liuxi flicked his sleeves and walked forward. "What, you didn't have the emperor's order, but you dare to act so recklessly, sooner or later, you will regret it!"

Lin Mubai and Nangong Liuxi walked with their backs to each other, and after walking far away, Lin Mubai instructed Yin Jianli behind him: "Send two more people into the palace tomorrow." ”

"My subordinates understand."

When Lin Mubai saw Lin Ruoxue, she was playing in the courtyard with a group of palace maids. Lin Mubai watched from a distance for a while and walked over. As soon as Lin Ruoxue saw that it was Lin Mubai coming, she immediately turned her head to greet her.

"Uncle Huang, you're here!"

Lin Mubai wiped the sweat from the corner of her forehead with a smile, then looked around and asked, "Where is your mother?" ”

"E-niang is taking a nap, Uncle Huang, are you here to pick me up from the palace?" Lin Ruoxue looked expectant, and after Lin Mubai shook his head, her little face immediately collapsed.
