Chapter 72: Investigating the Xia Family
Thinking of the past again, Liu Yiyu was full of emotion. didn't dare to tell Lin Yixiang what she thought at the time, she just said lightly: "I was caught by human traffickers and sold to the Qing Netherworld, but I didn't expect to pick up a life." ”
Lin Yixiang would have believed Liu Yiyu's death at the beginning, not for nothing. He had even seen her "corpse" with his own eyes, only then......
Lin Yixiang didn't say anything, silently recalling the scene when he came to Liu's house after learning of Liu Yiyu's death.
It was Pan Wenhua who took him to see the corpse, she was lying there at the time, he just looked at it from a distance twice and turned away. Because of his irritability and the trivial matters left by the Xia family, he didn't have extra time to doubt whether Liu Yiyu's death was true or false, and he also felt that Pan Wenhua didn't need to be good and let his daughter pretend to be dead to lie to him, and he pretended to be so long.
Now that Lin Yixiang knows the truth, if he doesn't mind at all in his heart, it's fake. So he didn't talk to Liu Yiyu about it again, but asked: "Then how did you enter the palace of the Qing Netherworld and meet the emperor of the Qing Netherworld?" ”
Liu Yiyu listened to Lin Yixiang's slightly cold voice, she was not right first, and she was not qualified to complain about anything.
"It seems that the women who have been sold from the Charlais country will be sold to the same person in the last place. I don't know the specifics, but they asked a lot of questions at the time, and in order to save my life, they really didn't treat me well after I returned, and after a while, I met the people around the emperor. ”
Liu Yiyu said as she spoke, remembering the scene when she first saw Xuanyuan Haotian. She still felt a little scared, glanced at Lin Yixiang uneasily, and said, "They seem to be very interested in the Xia family, and they keep asking me everything about the Xia family." After learning about my relationship with Xia Yao, it was not bad for me. ”
"The Xia family?" Lin Yixiang was a little puzzled when he heard Liu Yiyu say this. Shouldn't the Qing Ying Kingdom hate the Nangong family and the Xia family the most? Without these two families, they would have already conquered the Xia Lai Kingdom, how could they be kind to those who have a relationship with the Xia family?
"That's right, it's the Xia family." Liu Yiyu was a little disgusted when she thought that she would have to rely on Xia Yao's blessing to save her life at the last moment. "The man who came back with me this time is by the emperor's side. I don't know why Emperor Lu Dao sent him here, maybe there is something important to do. ”
Lin Yixiang lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and the silence in the room made Liu Yiyu feel a little uncomfortable. When Lin Yixiang got up and wanted to leave, she raised her hand and grabbed Lin Yixiang's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "This is leaving?" ”
Lin Yixiang smiled evilly and held Liu Yiyu's fingers in his hand, then let go, and asked rhetorically: "Otherwise?" Do you want to keep me here for the night? ”
Liu Yiyu frowned tightly, didn't say anything anymore, sighed heavily, turned over and lay on the bed and didn't care about Lin Yixiang anymore.
Lin Yixiang slowly bent down, in the dark, he bowed to Liu Yiyu's ear, and said leisurely: "The coming day is long, what are you anxious about?" ”
Lin Yixiang's warm breath blew into Liu Yiyu's ears, making Liu Yiyu's body tremble. Tightening the quilt on her body, Liu Yiyu bit her lower lip, but she couldn't wait for Lin Yixiang to stand up straight and leave.
With nothing to do, Liu Yiyu had no choice but to sit up again. The moment the corners of her mouth passed by Lin Yixiang, Liu Yiyu felt that her face was hot.
"I'll help you get back."
Liu Yiyu put on her robe and walked straight towards the door. Pushing open the door, he drew the attention of several guards at the door to himself. whispered a few words to them and explained some things, and only after Liu Yiyu was sure that Lin Yixiang had come out of the open door and left, she turned around and returned to the room.
On the way back from Liufu, Lin Yixiang kept thinking about what the reason for the Qing Netherworld to investigate the Xia family was. Xia family, is there any secret that no one knows? Now that all the people of the Xia family are dead, even if they want to check again, I'm afraid they won't be able to find anything.
Lin Yichen has always kept a distance from the people of the Qing Netherworld since they entered Beijing, and even some things that should be done by himself have been handed over to Lin Yixiang. But he didn't want to, the people of the Qing Netherworld would take the initiative to approach him.
Looking at Baili Chen in front of him, Lin Yichen was a little surprised. If he remembered correctly, this man should have been the highest-ranking of those people. What purpose did he come to himself?
Bai Lichen noticed Lin Yichen's eyes, smiled slightly, and said straight to the point: "I came to ask the prince, what was the reason for the failure of our previous cooperation with the Nangong family, and why did the two Jun Qianluo brothers die." ”
Bai Lichen's attitude when he spoke to Lin Yichen was not at all like what a slave should have for the prince. Lin Yichen was a little angry in his heart, but he didn't show it. He had always known that the Qing Netherworld would not ignore that matter, but he didn't expect them to say it in this situation. It seems that the purpose of sending people to the Xia Lai Kingdom this time is really not just to ease the situation between the two countries.
"Jun Qianluo." Lin Yichen muttered and repeated the name, searching for this person in his mind. "Oh, General Nangong mentioned it to me, are the two who are very good at poisoning?"
"That's right, it's them."
Although Jun Qianluo and Jun Qianyan are not the best soldiers around the emperor, based on their calculations before, it is more than enough to send these two people to Xia Lai Kingdom to make peace. It's a bit of a surprise that they're going to die here. Including Baili Chen, but also including Xuanyuan Haotian.
Lin Yichen leaned on the back of the chair and looked at Bai Lichen for a long time before he slowly spoke: "I can tell you who killed them, but you also have to tell me, what are you going to do?" ”
"This is the matter of my Qing Ying Kingdom, and I hope the prince will not interfere."
Lin Yichen smiled silently, "This plan will fail, and it's not just you who are annoyed, but I'm even more annoyed." Those two people died at the hands of my eighth brother, and he has been ruining my good deeds, and there are more than one or two things. ”
"The Eighth Prince?" Bai Lichen's eyes flashed with light, he did not doubt the truth of Lin Yichen's words, nor did he doubt whether Lin Yinan had the strength to do such a thing. "Then the Eighth Imperial Princess, can you participate?"
Bai Lichen mentioned Lu Zhiyao, which made Lin Yichen's body immediately stunned. They could notice the woman Lu Zhiyao, and they also realized that she was not simple. So how much do they know about themselves?
"There was indeed a involvement, and those two people can be said to have been killed by her own hands." Lin Yichen nodded, and pushed the matter to Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao. And he didn't think there was anything wrong with doing so, after all, he was telling the truth.
"Thank you, Prince." Bai Lichen got the news he wanted, bent slightly towards Lin Yichen, and turned away.
Lin Yichen watched him go out, thinking about how many days there were before the envoy of the Qing Netherworld left. can find something to do for Lin Yinan and Lu Zhiyao, and Lin Yichen's mood is unconsciously much better. He wanted to see if those two people dared to blatantly oppose the henchmen of the Emperor of the Qing Ming Kingdom.
Lu Zhiyao's mood has fluctuated a lot in the past two days, Liu Yiyu came back alive, and she also had to be busy with Jiang Wei's affairs, so she couldn't spare too much time to accompany Lin Ruoxue.
Lin Ruoxue looked innocent, and she didn't seem to have too many things in her mind, but in fact, she also thought a lot when she was alone. This time the matter of kissing involved her, and for Lin Ruoxue, it was as if the sky had fallen. But having Zi Ningshuang and others by her side to support her also made Lin Ruoxue's heart warm, and some things that she usually can't see can be seen very clearly at this time.
"Eighth sister-in-law, I miss my mother a little, can you accompany me back to the palace to see her?"
Lu Zhiyao looked sideways at the owner of the voice, thought for a moment, and responded, "Okay, when will you leave?" ”
"Now."
Lu Zhiyao accompanied Lin Ruoxue into the palace, and Lin Ruoxue was very quiet along the way, a little different from her usual.
The two walked on the gravel path, looking at the scenery on the side of the road, thinking about their own things.
Suddenly, Lin Ruoxue's footsteps paused, Lu Zhiyao raised his head, withdrew his gaze from his feet, looked in the direction that Lin Ruoxue was looking at, and was also stunned for a moment.
It was no one else standing in front of them, but Nangong Nuo'er and Liu Yiyu. The two seemed to be saying something, and they looked very harmonious, and the corners of their mouths were smiling, but I don't know how much of this smile is true.
Liu Yiyu was able to hide from Lu Zhiyao for so long, and the matter between her and Lin Yixiang was not that Lu Zhiyao was too stupid. How many cities she has, Lu Zhiyao couldn't be clearer now. So soon, the surprise in my heart disappeared.
Nangong Nuo'er and Liu Yiyu also saw them, and both of them walked slowly towards the front, then stopped and looked at each other.
Lin Ruoxue has always been in awe of the people of the Nangong family, and when facing Nangong Nuo'er, she didn't even dare to call her "seventh sister-in-law" like she did with Lu Zhiqing.
Lu Zhiyao saw the disdain in Nangong Nuo'er's eyes clearly, stretched out his hand and patted Lin Ruoxue's waist, and the frightened Lin Ruoxue suddenly trembled and stood up straight.
"You're a princess, this is your home, what are you afraid of." Lu Zhiyao's voice was soft, but for some reason, when Lin Ruoxue heard her words, the discomfort caused by Nangong Nuo'er and Liu Yiyu disappeared all of a sudden.
This was the first time Liu Yiyu had collided head-on with the Eighth Imperial Concubine, and she felt a little interesting when she heard Lu Zhiyao say such a sentence. Lin Yixiang and Lin Yinan are not in the same boat, which Liu Yiyu learned a long time ago. But how dare these eight princesses have the courage to talk to the princess like this? And the attitude is obvious, it is aimed at Nangong Nuo'er.
Nangong Nuo'er pursed her lips and smiled, as if she hadn't heard Lu Zhiyao's words, and asked Lin Ruoxue: "Are you still used to living in the Eight Emperors' Mansion?" ”
"Habit." Lin Ruoxue looked at Nangong Nuo'er, "Starlings and sisters-in-law are very good to me. ”
"It's really good, that's good." Nangong Nuo'er smiled meaningfully: "Whoever is really good to herself, the princess should remember." ”
"That's right." Lu Zhiyao took Nangong Nuo'er's words, looked at Nangong Nuo'er with a hint of frivolity, and glanced at Liu Yiyu over there by the way. "If you see what you are good for, you must also remember who bitten your own wounds."
