Chapter 95: The Daughter of a Sinner

"Are you really your young lady and me, a Taoist priest who sets up a stall on the street?" Lu Zhiyao raised his hand and raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Let's go, go back, Ming'er still has something to do." ”

Jiang Wei's appearance made Lu Zhiyao unable to help but think of the past. The charge of treason with the enemy is a shame for anyone in their Xia family. That day was the day she got married, and why was Daddy still in the capital in the morning, but they returned to Xuncheng in the evening? It was definitely not an accident, and if there was nothing important, they would never go back.

Lu Zhiyao was not in a hurry to immediately start investigating this Jiang Wei. waited patiently for two days, and picked a day when Lu Yuanzheng was not in the house, Lu Zhiyao took the maid and went straight to the Eight Emperors' Mansion.

There are not many servants in the Eighth Prince's Mansion, except for those who often appear by his side, it is rare to see other family maids. The people guarding the door had already known and were familiar with Lu Zhiyao, and seeing Lu Zhiyao coming with the maid, they hurriedly spoke and talked to Lu Zhiyao.

Lu Zhiyao looked at their puzzled expressions, smiled slightly, and said, "I'm here to see Miss Lan, didn't she go with your master?" ”

"It's really time for the eldest lady to come, Miss Lan just came back for a while."

Welcoming Lu Zhiyao into the mansion, Lu Zhiyao was taken all the way to Lan Ruoya's courtyard, looking at Lan Ruoyao's slightly surprised expression when she saw herself, Lu Zhiyao smiled lightly.

After Lan Ruoya and the others left, she remembered what Lin Yinan had told her before leaving, and asked in a low voice, "Come to see Xia Han?" ”

Lu Zhiyao nodded his head, looked at Lan Ruoya's ready-to-go, and asked puzzledly: "It's all this time, and you still want to go back to the Yamen?" ”

"Well, something." Lan Ruoya didn't think about it so much, and while looking back for something, she said to Lu Zhiyao casually: "There has been a change of people, so I may be a little busy recently." If you have something urgent to do with me, you can go directly to the yamen. ”

The words "the top has been replaced" made Lu Zhiyao's eyes light up.

"It's not unusual for a new official to take office with three fires. It's just that I don't know which adult came to the Yamen? ”

"It's the Criminal Department, I've changed to the Criminal Department, I'm in trouble."

Although Lan Ruoya is usually in the yamen, she is also a well-known catcher in the capital, and it is not surprising that she has connections with the Criminal Department. But generally people who are not stupid should also know that she is still the person next to the Eighth Prince, so generally speaking, small things can't be found on her. Could it be that something happened in the capital recently that I don't know how to do it?

"Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department." Lu Zhiyao smiled softly, and guessed under Lan Ruoya's gaze: "It won't be Lord Jiang of Xuncheng Zhixian County before, right?" ”

"How do you know about the Dao?" Lan Ruoyan was stunned, but she didn't expect Lu Zhiyao to know a lot.

"Did you really guess?" Lu Zhiyao was a little helpless, it seemed that Jiang Wei was really fast enough. The prince pushed him into the criminal department, wouldn't he just want to arrange someone to be by Lan Ruoya's side? "He came to my house two days ago, and I happened to run into him. I heard my father say that he came from Xuncheng. ”

"It's only been a few days since he came to the capital, and he contacted people quite quickly." Lan Ruoya raised her eyebrows and said jokingly, provoking Lu Zhiyao and the rain butterflies beside her all laughed. "Let's go, I'll take you to see Xia Han."

Lu Zhiyao was taken to Xia Han's residence, knocked on the door latch, looking at Xia Han's obviously stunned expression when he opened the door, Lu Zhiyao turned his head to look at Lan Ruoyan and said, "Trouble Miss Lan, if you have something to do, go first, I'll talk to her for a while and go back." ”

"Alright, I'll go first." Lan Ruoyan really had something to do, so she didn't be polite to Lu Zhiyao, nodded and left.

Lu Zhiyao was welcomed into the house by Xia Han, walked to the table, and looked at the embroidery that Xia Han had embroidered more than half on the table, Lu Zhiyao picked it up, looked at it twice, and put it down again.

"Yudie, go wait outside the door."

After taking the rain butterfly away, Lu Zhiyao and Xia Han sat at the table and looked at each other. After being silent for a while, Xia Han opened his mouth softly and asked, "I heard that the emperor has already pointed out the marriage between you and the eighth prince, is it true?" ”

Lu Zhiyao was a little surprised that Xia Han would mention this, and nodded hesitantly, Lu Zhiyao pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "I didn't expect this either." ”

"Then congratulations to Miss Lu, the eighth prince is a good person, it is a blessing to be able to marry him." Xia Han also smiled slightly, compared to the last time she treated Lu Zhiyao, this time she was much more gentle. "I didn't expect that the Eighth Prince would come to see me when he wasn't in the capital."

"I came to see you and he has nothing to do with it, Xiaohan, don't think too much." A trace of worry crossed Lu Zhiyao's eyes, and after Xia Han whispered softly, Lu Zhiyao thought for a while and said, "Xiaohan, I have something I want to ask you." ”

"What's the matter? You ask. ”

Lu Zhiyao hesitated for a moment, but finally asked the question. Even if Zhilu Dao did this, she would touch the wound in Xia Han's heart, but she had no other way.

"I want to ask you what happened in Xuncheng a few months ago." Lu Zhiyao watched intently at the change in the expression on Xia Han's face, staring at the panic that flashed in Xia Han's eyes, Lu Zhiyao's heart ached, and he comforted: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it." ”

Xia Han frowned and looked at Lu Zhiyao puzzled. She couldn't figure it out, Lu Zhiyao asked what to do about Xuncheng. With a hint of vigilance in his puzzled eyes, Xia Han was silent, looking straight at Lu Zhiyao and not answering her question.

"Don't be afraid, I just want to help you." Lu Zhiyao sighed, she knew that it was not easy for Xia Han to tell what happened that day. "Helping you, and helping myself. Your Xia family is kind to me, so there are some things I can do, I will definitely do it for you. I know that the destruction of the Xia family is not such a simple matter, and I don't believe that General Xia really did the evil thing of collaborating with the enemy and treason as said outside. The county magistrate who is looking for the city, I have already seen it. He is not looking for the city now, but has come to the capital. He's been promoted, Xia Han, do you understand what that means? ”

When Xia Han heard Lu Zhiyao talk about Jiang Wei, his eyes lit up with hatred that had never appeared before. Her eyes flickered, her clenched hands trembled slightly, and it took a while for her to slowly calm down.

"What you say, it's all true?"

"Why do you think I've taken risks to see you again and again? I don't want to help you, I could have told the prince about your here, didn't I? ”

Xia Han looked at Lu Zhiyao for a moment, then lowered his eyes, and said hesitantly: "Our family's affairs are not something you can do alone. I don't want to give up hope, that Jiang Wei, he is the prince's henchman, you can't fight him. ”

Xia Han refused to tell the truth, and Lu Zhiyao had no way to deal with her. But from between the lines of her words, Lu Zhiyao could still hear that the matter of searching for the city was really inseparable from that Jiang Wei.

"Well, let's not talk about that." Lu Zhiyao didn't want to embarrass Xia Han anymore, so he took the initiative to change the topic, and Lu Zhiyao asked in a low voice: "After staying here for so long, are you bored?" Why don't I take you outside? ”

"Miss, don't be joking, if others see and recognize my face, it's not a trivial matter. Here, the Eight Princes treat me very well, and I am very content. ”

"If you think it's good, that's good." Lu Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't know what medicine was sold in Lin Yinan's gourd, but he didn't treat Xia Han badly, it was true. "I'll come back to see you in a few days, and you can keep the money yourself. The Eighth Prince is not in the mansion, and many things need to be handled by yourself. If you want to find me, just tell Miss Blue, understand? ”

Xia Han looked at the silver in his hand in a daze, and after Lu Zhiyao stood up and prepared to leave, he shook his head in hindsight and said, "I can't ask for your money." ”

"Take it, there's always something to be found." Lu Zhiyao looked back at Xia Han and smiled, "Don't give it away, if you really think you shouldn't take this silver, just wait for the handkerchief to be embroidered and give it to me." ”

Xia Han sent Lu Zhiyao away with a complicated gaze, and put a few ingots of silver on the table, Xia Han thought for a long time, but still didn't remember that Lu Zhiyao had any contact with their Xia family before. But seeing her come to see herself again and again, it doesn't seem like she's pretending to be good to herself. She's just a fugitive, what the hell is she trying to do this?

Not only did Xia Han not figure it out, but even Yu Die, who was beside Lu Zhiyao, began to worry about Lu Zhiyao after knowing the identity of Xia Han. Her own young lady has been more and more fond of doing adventurous things recently, but Xia Han, who is the daughter of a criminal minister, if this news spreads, it will not be a trivial matter. What are Lu Zhiyao and the Eighth Prince thinking in their hearts?

"Yudie, why haven't I seen you looking for your master lately?" Lu Zhiyao walked on the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, looking around at the scenery on the side of the street, while talking to Yudie.

"The master said that he has something at home, so he hasn't had time to see me recently."

"Oh? Where does his family live? ”

"It's not clear, the master didn't mention it, and I didn't ask. But I think it should be not too far from the capital, otherwise I wouldn't have gone there to collect medicine. Yudie thought of her so-called master, and she was also full of doubts.

"You're kind of interesting, master." Lu Zhiyao had taken a few glances at the book that the man gave to Yudie. Even though she didn't know how to do medicine, she could see that the book was a good thing. It's all sorted out by hand, a thick one, and when Yudie really understands it all, and if she sees it through, she may be able to be a Langzhong and treat people.

Lu Zhiyao was talking to Yudie, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. She stopped, stood where she was, and then strode over to find the man.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Yudie followed closely, looked in the direction Lu Zhiyao was looking, and asked, "Who did you see?" ”
