After Lu Zhiyao came back, he had been thinking about what happened in the Qing Ming Kingdom, and he talked about the concubine selection meeting with Wanyue and Yudie, looking at the surprised expressions of the two maids, Lu Zhiyao began to reflect on himself, whether she was just as embarrassed in front of Lin Yinan during the day.

There is nothing interesting in the valley, so Lu Zhiyao admires and respects these soldiers who live here all the year round and secretly train them. The food they eat on a daily basis is planted on the mountain, and the cold cave is only covered with a simple quilt. Lu Zhiyao didn't know how they would spend the winter in this difficult environment, thinking of what Lin Yinan said, they had been here for several years, and Lu Zhiyao's mood couldn't help but feel a little heavier.

The emperor secretly prepared these to confront the Nangong family at the right time. But once you do it, you will definitely pay the price. Lu Zhiyao didn't worry too much about the affairs of the Qing Netherworld before, but after meeting the emperor of the Qing Netherworld today, Lu Zhiyao felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Lu Zhiyao sat at the mouth of the cave, silently looking at the soldiers below, occasionally glancing at the map in his hand, thinking about what should be done to minimize the damage if the two countries fought each other.

After returning from the Qing Netherworld, Lu Zhiyao has never seen Lin Yinan. It wasn't until it was late that Lin Yinan slowly appeared.

"I've already made arrangements, and I'll let Ling Yi accompany you back to Beijing tomorrow."

Lin Yinan's straight words made Lu Zhiyao stunned, "Didn't you say before that you want me to wait a little longer?" Lu Zhiyao asked him puzzled, I don't know what the reason made him suddenly make such a decision. Could it be that the Nangong family is doing it again? ”

"Nope." Lin Yinan denied Lu Zhiyao's speculation and replied, "Before, it was just because Ling Yi still had some things to do, so he couldn't let him go." But now, there is already someone to replace him, and I'm afraid that the Nangong family will make another surprise move, so it's better for you to go back early. ”

Lin Yinan finished speaking, but Lu Zhiyao still had an expression of disbelief in him. Lin Yinan had no choice but to say, "Do you want to take you to meet, the person who replaced Ling Yi?" ”

As soon as Lin Yinan's voice fell, footsteps came from outside. Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao both looked at each other, and after seeing Ling Yi and a woman walking into their sight, Lin Yinan continued: "This is it. ”

"What is it?" Su Mozi looked at Lin Yinan looking at him, and then asked. Without waiting for Lin Yinan to answer her, she went to look at Lu Zhiyao beside Lin Yinan again, and asked with curiosity on her face: "This is the legendary Eighth Emperor Princess, right?" ”

"Didn't you promise me to do something for me?" Lin Yinan said to Su Mozi in a flat tone, and asked Su Mozi with a frown, "Who promised you?" After that, Lin Yinan looked at her quietly and did not speak.

Su Mozi was stared at by Lin Yinan, and nodded uncomfortably, "I promise you, don't look at it." ”

Lu Zhiyao listened to the conversation between the two and seemed to be very familiar. She had never seen Su Mozi before, so she couldn't interject anything for a while, and when Lin Yinan and Su Mozi finished speaking, she asked, "Then when will Ling Yi and I leave tomorrow?" ”

"Whatever, depending on your mood." Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao sideways, then smiled slightly, and said, "Mo Zi and I still have something to say, wait here for me to come back." ”

"Okay."

Before Su Mozi could say a few words to the Eighth Emperor Concubine, she was dragged away by Lin Yinan again. Lu Zhiyao looked at the backs of the two, looked at Ling Yi, and asked, "Who is this girl?" ”

"Su Mozi, the granddaughter of the master's master."

Lu Zhiyao sighed, stopped Ling Yi, who wanted to leave, and asked with a somewhat gloomy gaze: "Ling Yi, let me tell you the truth, do you and the Eighth Prince have something to hide from me?" ”

After all, Lin Yinan's decision was too sudden, so Lu Zhiyao had to be suspicious.

Ling Yi looked at Lu Zhiyao with a confused expression, not knowing what she meant by her words. Lu Zhiyao saw that he couldn't hold back a word for a long time, so he could only sigh, waved his hand and let him leave, waiting for Lin Yinan to come back and ask again.

Su Mozi was taken away by Lin Yinan, and after walking to a remote and uninhabited place, she turned around to see Lin Yinan's expression, thought about it, and asked in a low voice, "Won't she be ignorant ......?" ”

"I didn't plan to let her know." Lin Yinan took Su Mozi's words and replied perfunctorily: "If I told her, she would definitely not go back." ”

Su Mozi was silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You have protected her well enough, but I don't know if you return to the capital, how much better it will be there than here?" ”

This time, Lin Yinan didn't speak again. Su Mozi looked at Lin Yinan intently for a while, sighed faintly, and stopped making a sound.

Lu Zhiyao waited until Lin Yinan came back, and then followed him to the carriage. It was cold inside the cave, so they were living in carriages for the past few days. Lu Zhiyao climbed into the carriage and then looked at Lin Yinan, and said to her softly in Lin Yinan, "If there is anything you want to ask, you can ask", Lu Zhiyao was not polite, and asked frankly: "Is there something you haven't told me?" ”

"What do you mean?" Lin Yinan looked at Lu Zhiyao with a light smile, and after listening to her say that things were always a little strange, Lin Yinan explained: "I wanted to take you to another place, but if I go there and let you go back to Beijing, it will definitely take five or six more days, so I decided to take you there next time." ”

"That'...... Do I need to come back to you again? Lu Zhiyao bit his lip and still asked the question in his heart. Looking at Lin Yinan's meaningful smile, Lu Zhiyao lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Forget it, you didn't ask me." ”

"I've heard everything, how can I pretend that I didn't ask." Lin Yinan stretched out his hand and touched Lu Zhiyao's eyebrows, "If you don't come, I'll go back." Ling Yi will assist you in getting things done, and then bring you back, don't worry. ”

Lu Zhiyao let out an "oh", she asked everything she wanted to ask, and after chatting with Lin Yinan for a while, she lay down to rest. With his back to Lin Yinan and being held in his arms by Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao opened his eyes for a while and couldn't sleep. But Lin Yinan seemed to be very tired, breathing steadily and motionless, and she didn't make any extra small movements, she thought ......

Lu Zhiyao thought wildly, and then suddenly realized what he was thinking, his face turned crimson and quickly closed his eyes, telling himself to go to bed quickly, and there was something to do tomorrow.

In the Qing Ming Country, Xuanyuan Haotian returned to the palace, sat there with cold eyes, and listened to the report of his subordinates.

Bai Lichen stood in front of Xuanyuan Haotian with his head down, talking about the things that he followed Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao during the day.

"You watched them go to the land of Charais with your own eyes?" After listening to Xuanyuan Haotian, he asked slowly.

"Back to the emperor, it was the slave who saw it with his own eyes."

Xuanyuan Haotian frowned slightly, and guessed in a low voice: "Could it be someone from the Nangong family?" Then he looked at Bai Lichen and asked him, "How is the army sent to the country of Charlai?" ”

"Everything is done according to the emperor's orders, and nothing has gone wrong, please rest assured."

"That's good, remember to keep an eye on Nangong Lingfeng's old fox, and once you find that something is wrong, immediately withdraw the person."

"Minions understand."

Bai Lichen nodded, and after Xuanyuan Haotian signaled that he could leave, he slowly exited the room. Standing outside the door, he looked at the bright moon in the sky with a solemn expression. It's been so many years, but it's the first time to cooperate with Charai. The risk involved in this must be clear to the emperor in his heart, otherwise he would not have repeatedly told him to monitor the movements of Nangong Lingfeng's army. As for the woman who appeared today, it was obvious that she didn't really come to participate in the selection of concubines, otherwise with her skills, Bai Lichen thought, it was very likely that she would win the last. Could it really be that the Nangong family sent it? But for what?

Bai Lichen pondered for a long time, but to no avail, he shook his head and left, doing what he had to do. The battle with Charlais is imminent, whether it is a victory or a defeat, this time is very important. In the past, there were the Nangong family and the Xia family, and the Xia Lai Kingdom was indeed terrifying. But now that the Xia family is gone, the people of the Nangong family are so arrogant and arrogant, they even thought of coming to them for help and giving them benefits. If Xia Lai Kingdom can really change the dynasty this time, then Bai Li Chen thinks that Xia Lai Kingdom will become the Qing Ying Kingdom, and it will be just around the corner, isn't it?

Early in the morning, Lu Zhiyao opened his eyes in a daze, and Lin Yinan beside him was no longer there. Slowly sitting up and jumping out of the carriage, she stretched and looked around, and when the maid came running, she asked, "Do you see the Eighth Prince?" ”

"I saw it, and I went over there with that Imperial Physician Jane." Wanyue nodded and answered the question of landing far away, then pointed to the direction inside the mountain, and said, "I've been there for a while, and I may be able to come back in a while." By the way, madam, you're going back to the capital today, aren't you? ”

"Yes." Lu Zhiyao glanced at the place where Xuan Yue pointed and looked at her. "I don't know when Lu Dao will come back, and it's inconvenient to take you and Yudie. In the meantime, take care of yourselves. ”

"I understand, the slave and maid will also take good care of the Eighth Prince." Wanyue said with a smile, looking at the change in Lu Zhiyao's expression, Wanyue didn't wait for her to reprimand herself, so she hurriedly said, "Madam, I'll serve you to freshen up, right?" ”

"You girl, sooner or later I'm going to hit you in the mouth."

Lu Zhiyao said coldly, after freshening up, Lin Yinan really came back. After packing his luggage and eating a simple bite of food, Lu Zhiyao was about to set off. led the horse and walked to the outside of the valley, with Lin Yinan by his side, followed by Yudie and several people. Walking out of the valley, Lu Zhiyao took a deep breath, looked sideways at Lin Yinan, and said, "Don't send it, after returning to Beijing, I will let Ling Yi tell you." ”
