Chapter 93: Placed aside
Lin Mubai suddenly appeared in the Prime Minister's Mansion and brought the holy decree, so that after Lu Zhiyao heard it, he was stunned and didn't reflect it for a long time. It wasn't until the anxious Lu Yuanzheng pushed her hard from behind that Lu Zhiyao glanced at Lu Yuanzheng in hindsight, and then knelt down with a confused face and accepted the order.
Lin Mubai put the holy decree into Lu Zhiyao's hand expressionlessly, and his eyes were full of disbelief at Lu Zhiyao, Lin Mubai asked in a low voice, "Didn't he tell you anything?" β
"Who? The Eighth Prince? Lu Zhiyao asked suspiciously, and after seeing Lin Mubai nodding, Lu Zhiyao shook his head and replied honestly, "No." β
Lu Zhiyao originally wanted to go to Lin Yinan to ask Lin Yinan after Lin Mubai left. But who knew that Lin Mubai told her that Lin Yinan had left the capital. When they come back, they will have to wait a few months for their wedding.
Lu Zhiyao sent Lin Mubai away dumbfounded, without the slightest joy at all because of this holy decree. Welcomed into the study by Lu Yuanzheng with a smile on his face, Lu Zhiyao answered his question absentmindedly, and when he heard Lu Yuanzheng cautiously ask, when did Lin Yinan and Mu Wangye have such a good relationship, Lu Zhiyao could only answer him with ignorance. Because, too, it's true.
Lu Yuanzheng had just married his second daughter, and the eldest daughter was appointed by the emperor to marry so soon, and it was the will of Prince Mu to announce it, how could he not be happy? didn't notice that Lu Zhiyao was wrong, Lu Yuanzheng only thought that she was overjoyed, and didn't know what to say, so he let her go back.
The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was in a state of joy because of this holy decree, except for Ye Lianrong, of course.
Ye Lianrong was very happy when she learned that Lin Mubai opposed Lu Zhiyao's marriage to Lin Yinan and took the initiative to find the emperor to express her attitude. But now, she was undoubtedly slapped in the face by Lin Mubai again last time, after being ridiculed by Lin Yinan on the day her daughter got married. What the hell is going on? Could it be that Ye Shengnan inquired about the wrong news again?!
"Yuechan! Go to Yefu and ask me what the hell is going on! Ye Lianrong slapped the table, and ordered the maid Yuechan behind her to immediately go to Ye Shengnan to ask for clarification. Yuechan didn't dare to delay and quickly got up. But when I arrived at Ye Mansion, the scene I saw was not much better than that of Ye Lianrong.
As soon as the news of Lin Mubai coming forward for Lin Yinan came out, many people in the prince's faction began to panic. Ye Shengnan and Ye Zhihua looked at Yuechan, who came on purpose, and hurriedly asked her about the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Madame asked me to ask what was going on." Yuechan observed the expressions of the two and asked cautiously.
"You go back first, tell Madame, and say that I will go to see her after I find out." Ye Shengnan waved his hand to send Yuechan away, stood up and sat down irritably, he looked at Ye Zhihua, who also had an uneasy expression, and asked, "Dad, what kind of trick do you say this Mu Wang Ye is playing?" β
"It has nothing to do with us any tricks, before the prince speaks, you are not allowed to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and tell your sister, and you must not provoke Lu Zhiyao again." Ye Zhihua felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and felt more and more that this Lu Zhiyao was not easy to deal with. "The eighth prince left Beijing suddenly without waiting for the holy decree to be issued, and I don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd, or if he can't stand the weather in this capital."
In recent days, the capital has been unusually sultry, and Lin Yinan can't stand the heat, which is also something that everyone knows.
"You stay at home, I'll go into the palace to find out the news from the Seventh Prince." Ye Zhihua told Ye Shengnan uneasily, and after entering the palace, he found Lin Yixiang and directly explained his intention.
Lin Yixiang had found Lin Yinan before, and he also knew that Lin Yinan had made up his mind to marry Lu Zhiyao. But what he didn't expect was that Lin Yinan would be able to invite Lin Mubai to announce the matter. Now there must be more than one person and two people who want to meet Lin Mubai and probe his tone, but unfortunately they are all rejected by Lin Mubai.
"There is no need to worry about this, his marriage to Lu Zhiyao was originally planned by the prince. As for Lord Mu's side, there is the prince and the queen to win over, you just wait for the prince to issue an order, and you don't need to interfere in the rest. β
"Wechen understands." Ye Zhihua nodded, and then asked suspiciously, "Then this marriage, when the Eighth Prince returns, will it be held?" β
"How the emperor's decree is written, how it must be done, this is not something we can control."
Ye Zhihua listened to Lin Yixiang's words, didn't get any news, and obediently returned to Yefu. After Lin Yixiang left, he hesitated again and again, and took Lu Zhiqing to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Ever since Lu Zhiyao received the holy decree, he has been dizzy by this news. Lin Yinan picked the time to escape, so that Lu Zhiyao couldn't ask him if he wanted to ask the reason. The words he said to Lin Yinan before were in vain. But even if you marry him, what is the matter with Prince Mu?
"Miss, why are you so unhappy?" Wanyue looked at Lu Zhiyao puzzled, she really couldn't guess her thoughts. The emperor gave the marriage, and the matter between her and the eighth prince was decided, which was a great joy. Even if the eighth prince is not in the capital, but the young lady doesn't need to sigh like this?
"You don't understand." Lu Zhiyao glanced at Wanyue helplessly, walked out of the room, looked at the people in his yard, and showed his unusually enthusiastic performance, Lu Zhiyao could only smile bitterly. There was a feeling in my heart that I was put on a stand by Lin Yinan.
Lu Zhiyao sat in the courtyard blowing the wind, if it weren't for Lin Yixiang and Lu Zhiqing appearing, she thought, she might have sat quietly until the evening and spent the whole afternoon.
Lu Zhiyao saluted the two, after all, she is not the Eighth Imperial Concubine now. Compared to the two, it is naturally one level lower. Facing Lu Zhiqing's eyes, Lu Zhiyao saw the resentment and displeasure in Lu Zhiqing's eyes, and his mood was inexplicably better. Turning his head to look at Lin Yixiang, Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment. The first time I got married, I married this person. And the second time, was it because of revenge that he married his younger brother?
"Can I talk to my sister alone?" Lu Zhiqing looked back at Lin Yixiang expectantly, Lin Yixiang didn't expect her to make such a request, thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll go out first." β
Lin Yixiang went out to find Lu Yuanzheng, Lu Zhiyao and Lu Zhiqing were standing in the room, you looked at me and I looked at you, and the atmosphere in the room gradually became tense.
"I haven't seen her for a few days, and my sister is really impressed with my sister. The marriage with the Eighth Prince was decided so quickly. I don't know what my sister did to make the Eighth Prince so fascinated? β
Lu Zhiyao felt that Lin Yixiang's breath had disappeared, and after sending the maids away, she didn't have to worry about anything else when she spoke to Lu Zhiqing.
"Sister's method, sister, you can't learn it. If I marry the Eighth Prince, does it mean that I am closer to the Seventh Prince? Lu Zhiyao raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Lu Zhiqing's hideous expression because of his two words, Lu Zhiyao continued in a good mood: "The Seventh Prince still didn't tell you about me and him, right?" Why don't you go and ask my sister herself, what do you think? β
"Shameless!" Lu Zhiqing gritted his teeth and said to Lu Zhiyao: "I will tell the Seventh Prince about this, and see how he will marry you when the time comes!" β
"How do you know about Lu Dao, he doesn't know about Lu Dao?" Lu Zhiyao's calm attitude made Lu Zhiqing angry. In addition to glaring at her fiercely, Lu Zhiqing couldn't think of any other way for a while.
Lu Zhiyao knew that Lu Zhiqing didn't have any brains, so he didn't take her to heart now. After Lin Yixiang came back from the expedition, Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yixiang with a serious expression and asked, "The Seventh Prince came here on purpose, is there something you want to ask me?" β
Lin Yixiang was stunned for a moment and nodded. "You go out of the house first." Lin Yixiang turned his head and said to Lu Zhiqing, although Lu Zhiqing was reluctant, he had no choice but to leave the room.
"Is the injury better?" Lin Yixiang glanced at Lu Zhiyao's injured arm and asked softly.
"It's not that fast, but it's not a big deal." Lu Zhiyao took his injuries and asked, "What does the Seventh Prince want to ask me?" β
"It's nothing, but I just heard that my father decreed the marriage between you and the eighth child, so I just came to congratulate you. I also went to the eighth child's side, but I didn't see him. β
"I don't know when the Eighth Prince left." Lu Zhiyao smiled bitterly, then his eyes flashed, and he said to Lin Yixiang: "Speaking of congratulations, I should congratulate the Seventh Prince." β
"Oh? What do you mean by that? β
"Could it be that the Seventh Prince still doesn't know the Dao?" Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yixiang with a surprised expression, and after being stunned for a moment, he said with a little weakness: "My sister just told me that she seems to be happy." I thought that such a big matter, the Seventh Prince, you already knew the way. β
After listening to Lu Zhiyao's words, Lin Yixiang's face changed significantly. Lu Zhiyao looked at him intently and smiled without a trace. She still knows most of what Lin Yixiang likes and what she doesn't like, just like Lin Yixiang doesn't like children.
Lu Zhiyao has forgotten when he talked to Lin Yixiang about children, when he saw those children playing in the streets and alleys? Or is it a random topic to bring up when you are bored under the willows by the river? Lu Zhiyao suddenly found that she had begun to blur a lot of memories with Lin Yixiang. Those memories that she once thought she would never forget disappeared from her mind silently.
Although she can't kill him now, she doesn't want him to live a life of silence.
"Seventh Prince, what's wrong with you?" Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yixiang with a somewhat tangled expression, and asked, "Did I say something that upset the Seventh Prince?" β
