Chapter 74: Using the Eight Emperors' Mansion as Bait [Second Update]
Even if there were many doubts in his heart, Lu Zhiyao didn't dare to ask in front of Lin Yunlong. nodded again and again in response to his words, what an honor it is in the eyes of outsiders to be favored by the emperor and give instructions in person, Lu Zhiyao doesn't want to be the person who "doesn't know what to do and disobeys the holy order".
Finally walked out of Lin Yunlong's room, Lu Zhiyao walked listlessly towards the Eight Emperors' Mansion, no matter what Lin Ruoxue asked, he didn't know anything.
Back in the house, Lin Yinan watched her absent-mindedly push the door and walk into the house, without even looking at herself, she grabbed Lin Ruoxue and asked, "What's wrong with her?" β
Lin Ruoxue thought about it and told Lin Yinan about Lin Yunlong looking for Lu Zhiyao. A flash of anger flashed in Lin Yinan's eyes, let go of Lin Ruoxue, and said, "I know what happened, you go back to the house first." β
Lin Yinan entered the house, found Lu Zhiyao, who was sitting there in a ball, and walked over slowly.
"Didn't you always want to deal with Liu Yiyu? This is a good opportunity. β
"It's different." Lu Zhiyao turned his head, looked at Lin Yinan with some resentment, and said, "I can't guess the emperor's thoughts at all, so I don't dare to do anything to her easily." β
"You just do what you want, and I'll do the rest." Lin Yinan touched Lu Zhiyao's head and said softly: "When you enter the palace in the future, I will accompany you." β
After Lin Yinan finished speaking, the depression in Lu Zhiyao's heart was already more than half. Frowning and staring at Lin Yinan, under his gaze, she asked faintly, "Why are you the prince?" β
"If I'm not the prince, how can I let you eat and drink spicy food?" Lin Yinan asked playfully.
"Come less, as if I married you just to eat." Lu Zhiyao fought back unhappily, and quietly touched his lower abdomen, which seemed to be slightly fat recently.
"It's not for food, but for what?" Lin Yinan asked slowly, but Lu Zhiyao, who asked, couldn't answer, so he got up with a smile and walked away.
The sound of the door being closed made Lu Zhiyao relax all of a sudden, lying down sideways, Lu Zhiyao remembered what he had explained to Yin Jianli, and he didn't know if he could perform this play well.
Yin Jianli returned to King Mu's mansion and told Lin Mubai about Lu Zhiyao's plan, and Lin Mubai did not object after hearing it. So Yin Jianli followed Jiang Wei for a few days, and when the time was ripe, he appeared.
Jiang Wei looked up and down at the man in front of him, feeling a little familiar, and for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"Lord Mu." Yin Jianli whispered three words to remind Jiang Wei, and looking at Jiang Wei's suddenly realized expression, he continued: "Does Lord Jiang have time to speak further. β
"It's free, it's free." Jiang Wei nodded again and again, Mu Wangye took the initiative to find him, even if he was not free, he didn't dare to say.
didn't go back to Jiang's mansion, so the two of them found a teahouse nearby and went in.
Jiang Wei just came out of Liufu, in order to be quiet alone, and also to think about some things by the way, so he chose to walk home alone, but he didn't expect to run into Yin Jianli.
The two sat in the room and looked at each other, and Yin Jianli didn't say too much nonsense, so he directly mentioned to Jiang Wei the real purpose of his coming to him.
"Beauty Pavilion, I wonder if Lord Jiang has heard of these three words?"
As soon as Yin Jianli's words came out, Jiang Wei's heart suddenly sank. Could it be that his little actions were discovered by Mu Wangye? But what does this beauty pavilion have to do with them?
Jiang Wei shook his head and said with a smile: "I haven't heard of it, what is it?" β
"There are no outsiders here, so Master Jiang doesn't have to be so nervous." Yin Jianli leaned back in the chair relaxedly, drank tea, and talked to Jiang Wei. "It's not a secret, our Muwang Mansion has also been investigating the matter of the Beauty Pavilion, and I learned that Lord Jiang is also interested in the Beauty Pavilion, so I want to cooperate with Lord Jiang once, I wonder if Lord Jiang can reward this face?"
Yin Jianli suddenly said these words, which shocked Jiang Wei. King Mu's Mansion is also investigating the Beauty Pavilion? What are they for?
"I really don't know what kind of place the beauty pavilion is, so I ......"
"So in other words, Lord Jiang refuses to give the prince this face." Yin Jianli interrupted Jiang Wei's words, looked at Jiang Wei's somewhat flustered expression, continued to play, and said, "The prince asked me to come to Master Jiang today, because I really want to cooperate with you." If Master Jiang has no intention of joining forces with us, then there is no need to go on. I want to wait to deal with the people of the Eight Emperors' Mansion, and you are not the only one, Lord Jiang. There are also many people who want to make a fortune from the Beauty Pavilion. β
"Dealing with the Eight Emperors' Mansion?" Jiang Wei watched Yin Jianli stand up and want to leave, and hurriedly asked, "What is the relationship between the Beauty Pavilion and the Eight Emperors' Mansion?" β
"Lord Jiang has been secretly investigating for so long, don't you know what the connection between the beauty pavilion and Lin Yinan is?" Yin Jianli looked back at Jiang Wei's surprised expression and said, "The prince said that you are the smartest and most capable of doing things around the prince, but I didn't expect that you haven't even investigated this kind of thing." β
After Yin Jianli finished speaking, he sighed a little disappointed. "I'll go back and tell the prince that you have no intention of cooperating with him. Master Jiang, take your leave. β
"Wait!" Jiang Wei jumped up and blocked Yin Jianli's way, he hadn't made progress in the matter of the Beauty Pavilion for a long time, and the people he could find were all unfamiliar with the Beauty Pavilion. Those who had direct and close contact with the Beauty Pavilion, he had worked hard to find them for a long time, and he had spent a lot of money, but he had not found a genuine one that could provide him with some useful information.
"Let's sit down and talk slowly." Jiang Wei said to Yin Jianli, who had something to say: "If I'm not mistaken, hasn't King Mu's Mansion always been very close to the Eighth Emperor's Mansion recently?" I don't understand what you just mean. β
"Then I'll explain it to you." Yin Jian was also happy to fall, and directly told Jiang Wei that he wanted to know the Tao of Lu to show his sincerity. "The prince approached Lin Yinan, for no other purpose, just for the Beauty Pavilion. The master behind the Beauty Pavilion is none other than the Eighth Prince, Lin Yinan, who does not often appear in front of people. β
"This ...... It can't be, right? Jiang Wei looked incredulous, and asked hesitantly, "Is it a mistake?" β
"We investigated the Beauty Pavilion much earlier than Lord Jiang, I think you have heard the prince and them say something about Lin Yinan recently, and your impression of Lin Yinan in your heart should not be like before. All I can tell you is that he's tougher than you think. The scale of the Beauty Pavilion is also much larger than you think, otherwise we wouldn't have been secretly staring at it for so long. β
"What does Prince Mu mean, what do you want to do?"
"We are responsible for approaching Lin Yinan and gaining his trust, while Lord Jiang continues to investigate the matter of the Beauty Pavilion, and if you need help, you will come to us. However, there is one thing that Prince Mu specially explained, he said that he didn't want a third person to know about this matter, and he didn't want a third person to grab this piece of fat, whether it was the crown prince or Prince Luo, or Liu Shengyuan. Does Master Jiang understand? β
"Understood." Jiang Wei nodded vigorously, and then said with some reassurance: "But I can't find any useful news now, I still don't have a clue where the beauty pavilion is, I don't know if the prince can take me to take a look?" β
"If we have already found out where the stronghold of the Beauty Pavilion is, do we still need to come to you to cooperate?" Yin Jianli stood up again, looked down at Jiang Wei and said, "Remember, don't let others know about this matter, if the true purpose of the prince approaching Lin Yinan is discovered by the people of the Eight Emperors' Mansion, then Lord Jiang must be careful of his own safety." β
"Don't worry, I will never tell anyone else." Jiang Wei's nervous palms were sweating, and he had always been very clear about Lin Mubai's strength, not to mention that Muwang's Mansion was different from before. Since the emperor handed over most of the military power to Lin Mubai, the ship of King Mu's Mansion seems to be more attractive than the crown prince and the eighth prince. Instead of following the ups and downs of the prince, it is better to follow the powerful and rich prince, and the days will definitely be lighter than now.
Yin Jianli left for a long time, and Jiang Weicai walked out of the teahouse with a smile on the corner of his mouth, humming a little song all the way home.
Yin Jianli secretly followed Jiang Wei, and after he entered the gate of Jiang's mansion, he turned around and returned to King Mu's mansion.
Everything was as Lu Zhiyao expected, Jiang Wei really showed his tail after hearing his words. Lu Zhiyao threw himself and Lin Yinan out of the river as bait, which is not without danger. If Jiang Wei really told Lin Yichen about this, then the situation of the Eight Emperors Mansion in the future may be even more difficult than it is now.
Now Jiang Wei thinks that with Lin Mubai as his support, he will be bolder in doing things in the future, and he will have more handles for Lu Zhiyao to grasp. Yin Jianli couldn't help but laugh a little when he thought of Lu Zhiyao's plan behind him. It seems that in the future, there will be more and more good shows.
It was dark, and after Lu Zhiyao had dinner, he ran back to the house lazily and read a book in the soft collapse. Before I knew it, I fell asleep, and when I opened my eyes again, I found myself lying on the bed, and the room was lit, but no one else was in sight.
Slowly sitting up, Lu Zhiyao rubbed his eyes to find Lin Yinan's trace. When I walked to the outhouse, I found that my small study was also lit up, and when I looked in along the door, I saw Lin Yinan sitting there writing.
Lin Yinan heard Lu Zhiyao's footsteps and didn't immediately look up at her. But the corners of his mouth were already in his mood.
Lu Zhiyao watched outside for a while and didn't go in until he heard Lin Yinan's ridicule.
"I've always heard that some people write very well, but I haven't had the opportunity to see it for myself. It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, is it good for Mrs. to reward a few words? β
Lu Zhiyao pursed his lips and walked over with a swagger. Although he said "I have to pay for my words", his hand had already taken the pen in Lin Yinan's hand, with a smile in his eyes, he glanced at what Lin Yinan had just written, and then put down the pen.
