Lin Yixiang nodded with a heavy heart, looked at the letter in his hand, and asked softly, "Then I'll take this letter back?" ”

"Hmm." Lin Yichen returned to the soft couch and sat down, "Find out as soon as possible, and report me immediately if there is any news." ”

Lin Yixiang left from Lin Yichen's palace, thinking about what he had just said to Lin Yichen all the way. The content of the letter could not be more absurd in Lin Yixiang's opinion. But when this news spreads, I'm afraid some people will believe it.

The more Lin Yixiang thought about it, the more headache he felt, and when he returned to his dormitory, he looked at Lu Zhiqing beside him, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow, do you want to go back and have a look?" ”

Lu Zhiqing's expression was stunned, then she nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Well, I haven't seen my father and mother for a few days, and I just want to go back and have a look." ”

After Lin Yixiang and Lu Zhiqing discussed, they let Lu Zhiqing go out. Before Lu Zhiqing left, he glanced at the letter that Lin Yixiang was holding in his hand, and was a little curious about who wrote it to him, but he didn't dare to ask, so he went out.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the wind is calm on the surface, but in private, it has become a mess.

Lu Zhiyao went to Ye Lianrong's courtyard during the day, and the words he said to Ye Lianrong spread throughout the entire Xiangfu at a speed that was so fast that it made people smack. Everyone was secretly discussing the truth of this matter, and Lu Yuanzheng, as the master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, could not be ignorant of the truth.

"Nonsense! Where did you hear that?! Lu Yuanzheng listened to Chu Hansheng's words, slapped the case angrily, looked at him and asked.

"Master, this has spread in the house now, I heard that the eldest lady went to the second lady in the afternoon, but the second lady didn't admit that this came out of her mouth, and the eldest lady had no choice but to leave again."

"Why did you come to tell me about such a big thing now?" Lu Yuanzheng's chest was stuffy, "The Eighth Prince doesn't know when Lu Dao will come back, this matter is a big problem, then the marriage contract with the Eighth Prince will be over!" Go and call me afar, I have something to ask her! ”

Chu Hansheng followed Lu Yuanzheng's instructions and came to Lu Zhiyao's courtyard. It was already dark, Lu Zhiyao looked at Chu Hansheng in front of him, his eyes lit up, and he asked with a smile: "It's so late, is there anything important about Steward Chu?" ”

Chu Hansheng was promoted to housekeeper by Lu Yuanzheng some time ago, and Lu Zhiyao didn't have time to give him a congratulatory gift. No, now he actually took the initiative to come to the door.

"Miss, it's the master who is looking for you to have something." Chu Hansheng had also received some favors from Lu Zhiyao before, and glanced at the two maids beside Lu Zhiyao, he knew that they were all Lu Zhiyao's henchmen, so he didn't avoid it, and said directly: "The master said that he had something to ask you, I guess...... That's what you went to find the second lady today. ”

Lu Zhiyao pursed his lips and smiled, stood up and said leisurely: "Good things don't go out, evil things go thousands of miles, it's only been an afternoon's work, not only Steward Chu, but even my father knows about it." Okay, I'm going to see my dad. Yudie, you go and get some silver taels, Steward Chu has been promoted, we have to express it." ”

"The eldest lady laughed, how dare a slave be." Chu Hansheng refused again and again, and when Lu Zhiyao sent the silver to him, he was still refusing. "Miss, I can't take this silver."

"Okay, there are no outsiders in this house, so don't be polite to me. In a few days, I won't be in the house, and even if you want to take money from me, I'm afraid you won't be able to get it. Lu Zhiyao smiled and stuffed the silver into Chu Hansheng's arms, and then strode out of the room and came to Lu Yuanzheng.

Lu Yuanzheng looked at Lu Zhiyao, who pushed the door in, and asked with a gloomy face, "What did you do today to find your second mother?" ”

Lu Yuanzheng's straightforward inquiry made Lu Zhiyao's footsteps pause. With a look of grievance on his face, Lu Zhiyao walked up to Lu Yuanzheng in two steps and said in a low voice: "Dad, this time you have to be the master of your daughter." ”

"Don't talk about that, you quickly tell me what's going on!" Lu Yuanzheng impatiently asked what happened.

"Dad, I'm not feeling well these days, but I never thought that Erniang would say something like that when she saw me uncomfortable. She told people behind her back, "I'm like this because, because I'm pregnant." Dad, if you let people outside hear this, how can I marry the Eighth Prince? Erniang used to falsely accuse me of being involved with others, so she didn't say anything, but when is it now, doesn't she know? Could it be that my sister got married, and Erniang didn't care about me at all? Dad, my mother died early, and you and I know how Erniang has treated me for so many years. But even if I'm not her own daughter, she shouldn't have said that behind my back! ”

The more Lu Zhiyao spoke, the more sad he became, and the more Lu Yuanzheng listened, the more cold his back became.

"What evidence do you have to prove that these words are all said by your second mother?"

"Dad, I heard what Erniang said to others with my own ears, is there still a fake? There's one more thing I haven't told my dad all along. That day, Wanyue and Yudie went home in trouble, and Erniang took advantage of the fact that there was no personal maid by my side, and actually drugged me in the fruit I ate to stun me, and then took someone else into my room. I still don't know what happened. If it weren't for the two girls who came back and bumped into each other in time, I think the other servants in my courtyard would not dare to tell me about this, for fear of offending Erniang. ”

"Is this the case?"

"It's true! If you don't believe it, your father can ask Erniang in person, and I can also call Wanyue and Yudie and confront Erniang face to face! ”

Lu Yuanzheng sighed with a headache, looked at Lu Zhiyao for a while, and waved his hand to let her go back first. Then, he brought Ye Lianrong over. And Ye Lianrong unsurprisingly denied everything and didn't admit that she had said that kind of thing.

The hour was getting later and later, and Lu Yuanzheng thought that he would have to get up early to go to court the next day, so he let Ye Lianrong go back first, wanting to find time to find out about this matter the next day. But he didn't expect it for a long time, and before he could start checking, Lin Yixiang came.

Lin Yixiang's arrival made Lu Yuanzheng and Ye Lianrong's hearts tremble, watching Lin Yixiang go directly to Lu Zhiyao's courtyard, Lu Yuanzheng sat in the study uneasily, waiting for Lin Yixiang to come over.

Lu Zhiqing followed Ye Lianrong back to the room, looking at Ye Lianrong's tired face, as if she hadn't slept well all night, she asked in a low voice, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Feeling unwell or has something happened? ”

"Qing'er, do you know what happened to the Seventh Prince of Lu Dao to find Lu Zhiyao?" Ye Lianrong didn't answer and asked, guessing in her heart whether Lin Yixiang would go to Lu Zhiyao to discuss the matter of the child in her belly, or how to study how to take Lu Zhiyao away without being discovered.

"I don't know." mentioned that Lin Yixiang went to see Lu Zhiyao as soon as he came back, and Lu Zhiqing's face also showed displeasure. "The Seventh Prince didn't tell me anything, he only told me that I came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today for something, and asked me if I wanted to come back."

"That Qing'er, do you know if the Seventh Prince has any connection with Lu Zhiyao during this time?"

"Mother, what do you mean by that?" Lu Zhiqing looked at Ye Lianrong puzzled and asked.

"Don't ask so much, just tell me, has the Seventh Prince touched you recently? Do you have any correspondence with people outside the palace? ”

Ye Lianrong's words reminded Lu Zhiqing of the letter she saw in Lin Yixiang's hand yesterday. She nodded slowly, hesitantly answered Ye Lianrong's question, and said, "It seems that there is...... Mother, how do you know about the Tao? ”

"Then it must have been written by Lu Zhiyao's little slut." Ye Lianrong said indignantly, under Lu Zhiqing's repeated questioning, she had to cautiously tell Lu Zhiqing some things. "You can't let outsiders know about this, Lu Zhiyao is pregnant with a child, and he is the son of the Seventh Emperor."

"What?!" Lu Zhiqing screamed and stood up from his chair suddenly. Looking at Ye Lianrong with twinkling eyes, Lu Zhiqing couldn't believe it, it was true. "Mother, you can't talk nonsense. Does she really have it? ”

"What am I lying to you for, don't you know that the Seventh Prince is having an affair with her?" Ye Lianrong looked at Lu Zhiqing's fuss, and said in a sigh: "I guess the Seventh Prince came to our house just to see her." ”

Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing talked about what happened during this time, and constantly warned Lu Zhiqing not to show his feet after returning to the palace, and not to mention anything about this matter. But she didn't know that Lin Yixiang had already known about this, and he also learned about it from the prince.

Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yixiang in front of him, with a smile on his face, but there was a bit of alienation and indifference.

"Is there anything the Seventh Prince looking for me?" Lu Zhiyao tilted his head sideways and asked softly.

Lin Yixiang looked at Lu Zhiyao's eyes were clear and tranquil, dressed in light green clothes, the style was simple, but it looked extremely comfortable and translucent. Can't think of what kind of person would fabricate such a lie to hurt such a woman, Lin Yixiang's eyes sank, and said, "Have you heard any gossip recently?" ”

As soon as Lin Yixiang's words came out, Lu Zhiyao's expression immediately became a little panicked. Lin Yixiang looked at the change in Lu Zhiyao's eyes and sighed secretly.

Originally, I just had the idea of trying it out.,Come to meet this same protagonist mentioned in the letter.。 Lin Yixiang wanted to see if Lu Zhiyao knew something, because the letter was obviously aimed at the two of them. And Lin Yixiang himself has too many enemies, and he can't find which one for a while, so he can only rely on Lu Zhiyao's side.

"The Seven Princes...... Did you hear something? ”

Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yixiang a little timidly and dealt with him. There were only two people in the house, and Yudie outside the house pinched a cold sweat for Lu Zhiyao nervously.

"Sister!" Wanyue ran back from outside, and after seeing the people in the yard, she said to Yudie with a happy face, "Guess who I just saw on the street?" ”

"Who?" Yudie turned her head to look at the room, pulled Wanyue to a little farther away and asked.

"The Eighth Prince! I saw the chariot and horse of the Eighth Prince! ”
