Chapter 43: Didn't You Intend to Serve the Eighth Prince?

"A thousand, is it really enough?" Nangong Nuo'er was still a little uneasy, looking at Nangong Lingfeng uneasily, she clenched her fists and said in a low voice: "Dad, we are going to help the prince's brother succeed to the throne this time, not other trivial matters." ”

"It's because it's the prince's business, so it's not their turn to let the people from the Qing Netherworld steal the limelight. They're just helping, and Nuoer doesn't have to worry. Besides, you have to wait for some time to do this thing, and you will not act until you get married in style, so daughter, what you should be thinking about now is not this, right? It's not a few days before your big day. These days, let's stop running around and stay in the house, how about it? ”

Nangong Nuo'er's body was stunned as Nangong Lingfeng's words came out, different from the previous strength, Nangong Nuo'er pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head, and said softly: "I'll go back to the house to rest." ”

Nangong Ling Feng smiled and watched Nangong Nuo'er walk out of his room, and then returned to his previous calm appearance, thinking of the two people who came from the Qing Netherworld.

Nangong Nuo'er walked out of the room, breathed a sigh of relief, patted her cheek, and walked to the room. Recently, I have spent more and more time with Lin Yixiang, and I feel a little different about him as a person. Thinking that she would always be by his side in the future, Nangong Nuo'er was not only not bored, but looked forward to it. Although there is still an eye-catching Lu Zhiqing, Nangong Nuo'er didn't take her seriously from the beginning.

The news of Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan's death was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Gu family and the Ye family. Gu Nuochu is the only son of the Gu family, and Ye Shengnan is no exception. Although the two families were angry and scolded them, they were their own flesh and blood, and now they were heartbroken and at a loss for what to do in the face of their son's corpse.

Ye Zhihua has been working hard in secret, hoping that the Ye family will have a day of revival. And Gu Nuochu's father has been planning to hand over the family's business to Gu Nuochu's hands. Facing the cold corpses of the two, tears flashed in the eyes of the two men who were no longer young.

"Any clues?" Ye Zhihua looked down at Ye Shengnan's face for a long time, opened his mouth hoarsely, and asked.

Lan Ruoyan looked sideways at Ye Zhihua's gaze and shook her head. "I haven't found any suspicious people yet, it's just ......"

"But what?" Ye Zhihua looked at Lan Ruoya's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and his mood couldn't help but be a little irritable.

"Yesterday someone saw a group of people who wanted to take Gu Nuochu away, but then he was rescued by a woman. We are still investigating who wanted to arrest him. But there is one thing that we have some eyebrows, and I think the recent major events in Beijing should be clear to both of you. A lot of people are sick and a lot of people have died. At present, there is only one pharmacy in the capital that can cure this disease, and as far as I know, this pharmacy was jointly opened by Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan. ”

Lan Ruoya's words shocked everyone present, Lan Ruoyan looked at their disbelieving eyes, and continued: "I have already asked the guys at the pharmacy, and they all admit that the boss is these two people. I'll investigate this matter myself, and I'll let you know as soon as there's any news. ”

Lan Ruoyan said some polite words, and then turned to leave. When she returned to the Eight Emperors' Mansion in the evening, Lan Ruoya looked at Ye Zhihua who came to the door and was a little surprised.

"Lord Ye came to me, what's the matter?" Lan Ruoya hurriedly poured a cup of tea and put it in front of Ye Zhihua, and asked softly.

Ye Zhihua smiled weakly as he heard what she called him. "I'm not an adult anymore, so it's better for Miss Lan not to call me that. It's so late, and I'm not going around in circles with you. I'm here to ask, are you really not looking for anything, or is there anything inconvenient to say during the day today? ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Miss Blue, I know we had some misunderstandings before. Serving different masters, friction is inevitable. But this time, I want you to ......."

"Lord Ye is too worried." Lan Ruoyan interrupted Ye Zhihua's words with a serious expression, "I should catch fast, it has nothing to do with the Eighth Prince." If I investigate the case, he will not interfere in it. Please rest assured at this point, I will not involve you because of the grievances between the eighth prince and the crown prince. What's more, Ye Shengnan is gone, even if there are any entanglements, it should be over. ”

"I'm relieved when you say that." Ye Zhihua sighed lightly and was about to get up and leave. "Then I'll go back first, and Miss Lan can rest too."

"Wait a minute." Lan Ruoya opened her mouth to stop Ye Zhihua, looking at Ye Zhihua's puzzled expression, Lan Ruoya motioned for him to sit down first and speak slowly.

"How many years has Lord Ye been under the Prince?" Lan Ruoya took a sip of tea, smiled at Ye Zhihua and asked.

Ye Zhihua's eyes lit up, thought for a while, and replied, "It's been a few years." Why did Miss Lan suddenly remember to ask this? ”

"It's nothing, I just think that even if you go back now, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep, so it's better to stay and chat for a while before leaving." Lan Ruoya smiled slightly, remembering what Lu Zhiyao had said to her before.

Although Lu Zhiyao has had so many conflicts with the Ye family, she has always believed that Ye Zhihua still has value in use. This time, Ye Shengnan died at the hands of Lu Zhiyao, and Lu Zhiyao also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to win over Ye Zhihua, who was already of little use in the eyes of the prince.

Ye Zhihua sensed that there was something in Lan Ruoya's words, and he didn't refuse, he sat down silently and looked directly into Lan Ruoya's eyes. "What does Miss Blue want to talk to me about?"

"How about talking about the prince?" Lan Ruoya raised her eyebrows and asked Ye Zhihua. "I know that although Lord Lu Daoye is no longer a servant of the Ministry of Officials, it seems that he has always wanted to return to this position. Do you think it is still possible for the prince to fulfill your wish? ”

Lan Ruoya's straightforward inquiry made Ye Zhihua a little unsure of how to answer. Indeed, as Lan Ruoya said, he has been in the position of the servant of the ministry for so long, and he angered the prince because of Lu Zhiyao's incident, and he is of course unwilling to become the way he is today. But one yard is one yard, although he has complaints about the prince in his heart, he doesn't think that he is familiar with Lan Ruoyan and can sit together and talk about the prince. After all, their Ye family has come to this point, and it has a lot to do with the Eighth Prince.

"What does Miss Lan mean by this, you might as well say it directly." After Ye Zhihua hesitated again and again, he opened his mouth. "I don't understand."

"Don't be nervous, I'm just casually asking, does Lord Ye mean to serve the Eighth Prince?"

This is the first time that Lan Ruoya has lobbied a minister like this. In the past, she didn't care about these things at all, but this time Lin Yinan was not in the capital, and Ling Yi and Zhan Yulong couldn't show up again. They couldn't guess what Lu Zhiyao wanted to do with Ye Zhihua, Lan Ruoya, who was driven to the shelves, could only try to recall the wording that Lu Zhiyao taught him.

"Did the Eighth Prince ask you to ask this?" Ye Zhihua asked cautiously.

"The Eighth Prince is not in the capital, and it will take some time to come back. This is what I want to ask, just as Lord Ye said, there have been some conflicts between the Ye Mansion and the Eight Emperors' Mansion before, but there are some things that must be resolved one day. Ye Mansion is not as good as before, and as far as I can see, the prince has no intention of reusing you. The cause of Ye Shengnan's death, I will definitely do my best to investigate. But Lord Ye, you also have to think about yourself. Although the son is gone, he still has to go on. ”

"It's not too early, so the old man will go back first. Come back to the house another day to meet Miss Blue. ”

"Master Ye walks slowly, don't send it."

After Ye Zhihua walked out of the room, Lan Ruoyan relaxed her muscles and lay on the bed. According to Zhan Yulong, the two Qingying people who took advantage of Ye Shengnan and Gu Nuochu had already arrived at Nangong Mansion and never came out again. Lu Zhiyao was not surprised by this result at all, but said to them very resolutely, that is, these two people must be snatched out of Nangong Mansion. But as for what to do, Lan Ruoyan felt a lot of headaches.

The Nangong Mansion is full of soldiers' handles inside and out. If you want to grab two people out, how can it be so easy?

Lan Ruoya had already written a letter to Lin Yinan, but if she wanted to get Lin Yinan's reply, it would have to be a few days later. If you want to wait for Lin Yinan to come back and solve it, it will be even more difficult. Now there seems to be no other way than to follow Lu Zhiyao's instructions. For the first time, I felt that the capital was so chaotic and things were so difficult to solve. Lan Ruoya was very worried, what if Lu Zhiyao did it himself, what would he do if he was discovered by the Nangong family? She shouldn't have appeared in the capital now, Nangong Ling has been galloping on the battlefield for so many years, and her kung fu is not a joke. It really made Nangong Lingfeng anxious, and it would be too late when Lin Yinan came back.

Lan Ruoyan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep peacefully, and Lu Zhiyao was the same, thinking about the deeds of the Qing Netherworld and the Nangong family.

Lin Yinan had only mentioned to her before that the Nangong family had colluded with the Qing Ming Kingdom to assist Lin Yichen in ascending to the throne, but nothing else had been revealed. Now that the people of the Qing Netherworld have come, it means that war is about to break out. According to her understanding of Nangong Lingfeng, he is very fond of Nangong Nuo'er, so he will definitely not ruin Nangong Nuo'er's wedding and spoil Nangong Nuo'er's good mood. It's just that after Nangong Nuo'er and Lin Yixiang become relatives, things may be over.

With his own strength, he would definitely not be able to deal with Nangong Lingfeng. At this time, who else sees the Nangong family as unpleasant, can help themselves, and can play a great role?

Lu Zhiyao bit his lip and sat in the rocking chair and kept shaking. Suddenly, she thought of someone, a person who was very powerful, and she wanted to make up her mind but was a little afraid.
