Chapter 97: The Reason for Not Getting the Throne [Second Update]
Jiang Wei lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound, in fact, it was more that he didn't know what to say. If he dared to say in front of Lin Mubai that he let him come, saying that this was not a barracks but a beauty pavilion at all, then Jiang Wei was sure that the Jiang family would have trouble again in less than a month, and it would definitely not be as simple as letting some people lose their lives.
Last night, the prince also sent people here to monitor and make sure that Lin Yinan's people and those women were there. In just one morning, they were able to take all the people away, and then get these soldiers, it seems that this is what Lin Mubai and Lin Yinan have planned a long time ago...... There is also that Luo Yunzheng, who said that he came over early in the morning to take the lead and make the most confirmation, and if he found something abnormal, he would go back and tell them, but now he has not seen anyone else, was he arrested by Lin Mubai's people, or what's going on?
Jiang Wei sighed in his heart, slowly raised his head to meet Lin Yunlong's sharp gaze, he tried hard to make himself look less frightened, and opened his mouth to say: "Back to the emperor, because Weichen was an official in Xuncheng before, and this place is not far from Xuncheng, so after hearing the rumors that it has not been peaceful here recently, and there are often sounds of weapons colliding, I have been thinking about it to come and see, but I didn't expect that this is actually a military camp arranged by Prince Mu, and it is the minister who is reckless, please ask the emperor to surrender!" β
The training place was a long distance from the outside, and Lin Yunlong saw it very clearly when he came in just now, it was absolutely impossible to hear any sound outside, and it was impossible for Lin Mubai to do that, so it was so easy for people to find out that there were people here. Jiang Wei's words were obviously lying, and Lin Yunlong also knew in his heart that this matter was not so simple, so he said sharply after being silent for a while: "When will it be your turn to take care of the matter of searching for the city?" Or does Master Jiang prefer to return to Xuncheng as an official? If you act recklessly without finding out, it seems that I really think highly of you. Someone, tie him up and put him in prison! β
Jiang Wei swallowed the grievances in his stomach and was arrested like this. Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Mubai deeply, and his mood was complicated to the extreme.
Jiang Wei didn't say Lin Mubai's name here, his intelligence and knowledge of current affairs made Lin Mubai's eyes flash a smile. Turning his head sideways to look at Lin Yunlong, Lin Mubai smiled and said, "Lord Jiang is really attentive. β
"A little Jiang Wei can find here, and it seems that this place is not as secret as you say." Lin Yunlong said meaningfully.
"Yes, the minister will definitely strengthen measures and precautions to make this place more hidden."
Lin Yunlong stopped speaking, and strode forward. Lin Mubai watched Lin Yunlong go away, and slowly lowered his eyes, thinking about what kind of treatment Jiang Wei would receive this time.
Lin Yunlong had just issued an order announcing the election of Jiang Han as the crown princess, and few people knew about Jiang Wei's matter this time, so Lin Yunlong should not make things bigger. He locked up Jiang Wei in front of him, which didn't mean that he wouldn't secretly go to Jiang Wei to ask for clarification. There are some things that Jiang Wei doesn't dare to say here, but when he goes back, with the prince and queen as his backers, the situation may not be the case. In short, no matter what, this Jiang Wei really can't stay any longer.
After Lin Yunlong and Jiang Wei left, Yin Jianli appeared and came to Lin Mubai.
"Go and tell Lin Yinan, just say that the matter is done, let him come to the house tonight, I have something to talk to him."
Lin Mubai whispered to Yin Jianli, and then walked back to King Mu's mansion.
Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao were still in the hunting ground, and the topics they talked about with Lin Yichen and the others gradually changed.
After losing to Lu Zhiyao on horseback, Nangong Nuo'er once again proposed to compete with her in archery. Lu Zhiyao looked at the cold light flashing in her eyes, and agreed after a little thought.
The three men stood aside to watch the excitement, Lin Yichen stood between the two, looking at Nangong Nuo'er and Lu Zhiyao's smooth and chic movements when they got on the horse, looked at Lin Yinan with a chuckle, and asked, "The Eighth Imperial Concubine's good skills, won't you be taught by the Eighth Brother?" β
The corners of Lin Yinan's mouth curled slightly, but he didn't deny it, but just said: "She is very smart and learns anything quickly, maybe the next time she comes out, we will not be her opponents." β
"Oh?" Lin Yichen raised his eyebrows, not believing what Lin Yinan said. "Would you be willing to make the Eighth Imperial Concubine stronger than you?"
Lin Yinan looked at Lin Yichen puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "Why don't you want to?" β
In the interval between the two of them, Lu Zhiyao and Nangong Nuo'er had already walked away.
The animals that were put in by the minions began to flee in all directions the moment they were freed, Lu Zhiyao looked around, and then took out a wooden arrow from the quiver behind him and held it in his hand, seeing that Nangong Nuo'er had already ridden to the left, Lu Zhiyao's tense nerves relaxed slightly. But it soon became clear to her that it was the wrong decision.
Riding the wind, the sharp arrows that flew over with full murderous aura made Lu Zhiyao sneer. Glancing at the hare that had been targeted by himself in the distance, Lu Zhiyao's hand holding the bow and arrow slammed the horse's back, and his whole body also rose into the air, and Nangong Nuo'er's arrow hit the horse's leg, causing the horse to lose its balance and leave it when it fell.
Lu Zhiyao's body fell in the air, and the corners of his hair and clothes were fluttering in the wind. Lin Yinan, who was in the distance, couldn't see her expression at this time, but when he saw her raise her bow and arrow and shoot at the prey that had been eyeing her for a long time, he knew that she must have a beautiful smile on her face now.
Lu Zhiyao landed safely, and the sharp arrows that flew out of the jaw had already landed on the prey. Looking back at the injured horse, Lu Zhiyao waited for Nangong Nuo'er to give him an explanation.
Within a moment, Nangong Nuo'er had already ridden to Lu Zhiyao's side. She sat on the back of the horse and looked down at Lu Zhiyao, without any guilt or other emotions at all because of her actions just now.
"Feng Da lost his eyes, accidentally looked at the flowers, thought that the Eighth Imperial Concubine had prey under the horse, so he made a move, how about it, the Eighth Imperial Concubine was not injured, right?"
It's windy again, and it's blind.
At this time, Lu Zhiyao reacted, how ridiculous it was for her to cover up the fact that she had cried with such an excuse that night.
"It's fine." Lu Zhiyao sighed secretly, patted the dust on his body casually, and ran over to pick up rabbits.
The actions of both fell into the eyes of the three people over there, and after they walked over, Lin Yixiang asked coldly, "What's the matter?" β
"I just accidentally missed it, I already explained it to the Eighth Emperor Concubine just now."
Nangong Nuo'er's words made several people frown, including Lin Yichen.
"It's nothing, the wind has been a lot lately, and it's easy to get confused, right?" Lu Zhiyao asked Lin Yinan in words, and seeing Lin Yinan nodding his head in affirmation very seriously, Lu Zhiyao couldn't help laughing.
Lu Zhiyao's undisguised smile made Lin Yinan's eyes deeper, and her clear eyes with a smile also made Lin Yixiang a little distracted.
He had seen this kind of smile a long time ago, and at this moment, Lin Yixiang suddenly remembered Xia Yaolai, which made him feel incredible.
"Alright, your eyes are straight." Nangong Nuo'er walked over and blocked Lin Yixiang's sight, and she was very uncomfortable with the kind of look that Lin Yixiang had just looked at Lu Zhiyao.
The two looked at each other, and Lin Yixiang was also very unhappy. Xia Yao has always been the memory he wants to forget the most in his heart, and finding traces of Xia Yao on Lu Zhiyao's body makes Lin Yixiang feel that he is simply ridiculous.
"Prince." Lin Yichen's subordinates didn't have time to say anything else, the man first glanced at Lin Yinan, and then said with an expression that was not quite right: "Lord Mu's people came to find the Eighth Prince, and they are waiting outside." β
Lin Mubai's people came here to find Lin Yinan?
Lin Yichen, Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuo'er all felt that something was wrong, and Lin Yichen said quietly: "Bring people here." β
When Yin Jianli, who was supposed to appear in the Beauty Pavilion, came to Lin Yichen's face, Lin Yichen only felt that his heart was tight, and the dullness made him uncomfortable.
After Lin Yinan saw Yin Jianli, he also knew that things were going well, listening to the two words that Yin Jianli said in his ear, Lin Yinan said softly: "I know the way, you go back first." β
Lin Yichen's sharp gaze stayed on Yin Jianli's body, and the feeling of bad feeling in his heart became more and more obvious, and after Yin Jianli left, he said with a smile: "The relationship between the eighth brother and the imperial uncle seems to have been good?" β
"Is there one?" Lin Yinan looked at Lin Yichen with a serious expression, and then said thoughtfully: "Compared with the crown prince, the relationship should be a little better, and you also know that the emperor's boat is not something that anyone can sit on." β
Lin Yinan's words came out at this time, which made Lin Yichen have to think about it even more. Worried that something had happened to Jiang Wei's side, Lin Yichen turned around and planned to leave after saying that he still had something to go back to the palace.
Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuo'er didn't know what was going on, but looking at Lin Yichen's face, they also knew that something bad was going to happen. Following behind Lin Yichen, after hearing Lin Yinan's voice, the three of them all stopped and looked back in unison.
Lin Yinan never moved, he stood there, looking at them calmly and elegantly. An indifferent smile appeared on his lips, Lin Yinan looked at Lin Yichen's eyes, and said slowly: "Prince, there is something I have always wanted to say to you. There's only one reason why I can't take the throne, and that's that I don't want it, not that I can't get it. β
Dare to say such things in front of the crown prince and the prince, if you are not very confident, you are impatient. At this moment, Lin Yichen and Lin Yixiang both agreed that Lin Yinan would not be the latter.
Lin Yichen clenched his fists and left in a hurry, his expression was gloomy on the way back to the palace, so that Lin Yixiang and Nangong Nuo'er didn't dare to ask anything.
"Hey......" Lu Zhiyao sighed, leaned forward, looked sideways at Lin Yinan's delicate and gentle face, and said, "The Eighth Prince is really bold. β
"It's all taught by Madame." Lin Yinan stretched out his long arm and hugged Lu Zhiyao over, "It's not too early, we should go back too." β
Jiang Wei was arrested, and Lin Yichen was not stupid, and he would not fail to guess the real reason for the incident. Since Lin Yinan was going to make a move, he didn't want to hide it, so he said something like that just now.
