Lin Yinan's inquiring gaze slowly became sharp, making Lu Zhiyao feel like there was nowhere to escape. Comfortably withdrawing the hand held by Lin Yinan, Lu Zhiyao's breathing became a little cautious.

"It's strange that you have to marry me, it turned out to be this kind of calculation on me." Lin Yinan said a sentence with a smile, and although Lu Zhiyao was uncomfortable listening to it, he also knew in his heart that he couldn't say anything. She didn't have the position and qualifications to say anything, because from the beginning, what she wanted was to use Lin Yinan.

"If the eighth prince regrets it, he can go to the emperor to annul the marriage contract." Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes and whispered slowly.

"Scrapped?" Lin Yinan was a little dissatisfied with Lu Zhiyao's proposal, "I finally asked for it, how can I say that it will be scrapped?" ”

...... begging?

Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yinan with a slightly stunned expression, puzzled by what he meant.

Lin Yinan saw Lu Zhiyao's confused expression, his eyes moved slightly, and he didn't mention it anymore. The two stood face to face, and for Lu Zhiyao in front of her, Lin Yinan had a feeling that if she didn't restrain her, she would cause more trouble.

What Lu Zhiyao said, Lin Yinan couldn't be sure for a while whether it was true or false. But no matter whether she is Xia Yao or Lu Zhiyao, Lin Yinan can't deny that this girl is indeed a little smart, and she is bold enough. Otherwise, this would not be the case now. But......

Lin Yinan estimated the time and asked softly, "Do you know why the prince wants to get rid of the Xia family?" ”

Lu Zhiyao didn't expect Lin Yinan to suddenly ask this question, a touch of murderous intent crossed his eyes, and Lu Zhiyao replied coldly: "Because the Nangong family also wants that military power?" ”

"What about treason?" Lin Yinan shook his head and vetoed Lu Zhiyao's speculation. "Even if the Nangong family doesn't have the military power of the Xia family, it is strong enough. General Xia died only because he knew things that he shouldn't know. ”

"What's the matter?!" Lu Zhiyao couldn't help but ask.

Lin Yinan didn't answer Lu Zhiyao's question immediately, turned his head to look at the environment he was in, Lin Yinan hooked the corners of his mouth, and said to Lu Zhiyao: "Jiang Wei will definitely send someone here to investigate, let's go, let outsiders see you and me here, it's not easy to explain." ”

A stomach full of questions blocked in Lu Zhiyao's throat and couldn't ask, she looked at Lin Yinan's somewhat smug and deliberate expression, gritted her teeth, didn't say anything, and walked behind him. After the two saw Liu Xisheng who came to meet them and was taken to the secret room by Liu Xisheng, Lu Zhiyao looked around nervously, and after touching Lin Yinan's sight, Lu Zhiyao walked to the corner and sat down, bowing his head silently.

Even she hadn't been in this secret room for a while. was pestering Xia Zhenkun when she was a child, saying that she had too many "treasures" and didn't want to be snatched by her eldest brother and sister, so she asked him to build a treasure trove for herself, but she didn't expect that Xia Zhenkun really agreed. Thinking back to myself at that time, how unscrupulous I was.

"Your young lady, can you play the piano?" Lin Yinan asked with interest after scanning the things placed in the room.

"Our young lady is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is naturally good at playing the qin." Qingling answered Lin Yinan's question with a hint of pride, and was still a little uncomfortable with Lin Yinan and them hiding from Jiang Wei's pursuers here. Neither of them had the opportunity to get close to the Eighth Prince before, and they didn't want the first time to be in this situation.

"Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all proficient...... Lin Yinan muttered, and then glanced meaningfully, not long ago he said to himself, Xia Yao will also be Lu Zhiyao. By the way, since you have such a secret room in your Xia Mansion, why only a few of you survived? Lin Yinan abruptly changed the topic, and the few people who asked didn't react immediately.

"There's no chance." After the silence, Bai Lixuan replied in a heavy tone. No one had expected such a catastrophe in advance. Moreover, at that time, all the enemies concentrated their forces around Xia Zhenkun and Xia, and did not give the two of them a chance to escape at all. It was precisely because the other party was bent on putting these two people to death that he neglected Bai Lixuan and the others, allowing them to survive in secret. As for the lady and the second lady, they were directly caught from the capital, and they couldn't even get close to this room.

Lin Yinan listened to Bai Lixuan's answer, and asked again: "You failed to kill Jiang Wei this time and escaped this catastrophe." So next, I will follow Jiang Wei back to Beijing and continue to act, right? ”

Bai Lixuan and the others looked at each other, for someone like Lin Yinan who didn't know whether he was an enemy or a friend, they shouldn't reveal their next plan. So they said perfunctorily, and they didn't think about it yet, but they unexpectedly provoked Lin Yinan's chuckle.

"Don't you want to go back to Beijing to meet Xia Han?"

The two words Xia Han that came out of Lin Yinan's mouth made Bai Lixuan's eyes widen in surprise instantly, Lin Yinan looked at their unbelievable appearances, and then looked at Lu Zhiyao who had a tangled face over there, a little curious why she didn't say it. If these three people didn't know that Xia Han was still alive, then what method did Lu Zhiyao use to make them trust her and agree to her acting with them?

"It seems that Miss Lu hasn't told you yet, she saved Xia Han's matter."

Lu Zhiyao met the eyes of several people, and had no choice but to confess. "I'm afraid that Xia Han is in danger, and I'm afraid that they, who only want to take revenge now, will go to the Eight Emperors' Mansion to ruin your good deeds."

They only want revenge, but what about you?

Lin Yinan didn't ask what he wanted to ask. Looking at the different expressions on the faces of several people around him, Lin Yinan sighed leisurely and said something that shocked them.

"There are some things that I think I have to let you know today. Otherwise, you died in a daze, and I'm afraid that someone will blame me for not being able to stop you in the future. When Lin Yinan spoke, his eyes swept over Lu Zhiyao's face. General Xia's death was not accidental. Jiang Wei must also get rid of traitors, but it is by no means now. Bai Lixuan, Liu Xisheng, and Qing Leng are the three of you, I know that you are all the favorite generals by General Xia's side. General Xia is a hero of the Xia Lai Kingdom, which is a fact that no one can deny. His death, not only you, I think many people will not sit idly by. ”

"Does that also include the Eighth Prince?"

When Lin Yinan heard this, the smile on his lips deepened. Lu Zhiyao looked at the gaze projected by him, his heart sank, but he also stubbornly looked at him.

"What kind of answer would you like to hear from me?" Lin Yi Nanfeng asked lightly, and his soft tone made Lu Zhiyao feel a little chill in his back.

"I'm going back to the city this time because of a few of you." Lin Yinan didn't wait for Lu Zhiyao to speak, and continued: "I can't go back to the capital during this time, but I don't want you to do anything to Jiang Wei again. Now the masters around Jiang Wei, even if I don't say it, you can feel it, it's not so easy to deal with. You are all people who have been fighting on the battlefield with General Xia for many years, and revenge can be done overnight? If you're really in a hurry to die, pick a place where no one is around, or...... Don't let her know. I also have to rush back thousands of miles to prevent my lady who has not passed through the door from following you into any big trouble. ”

Lin Yinan's gaze fell steadily on Lu Zhiyao's body, so that Lu Zhiyao had nowhere to escape if he wanted to. Listening to his words, I don't know what to do, Lu Zhiyao always felt a little weird.

"Far away, Ming ** will take them back to Beijing and arrange them in my house."

Lin Yinan's decision made Lu Zhiyao and several people look at him in unison. What does he mean by that, does he know it?

"Eighth Prince, all three of us are outlaws now. If anyone finds out that we are in the Eight Emperors' Mansion, then you ......."

"Since you have such concerns, then stay in my mansion honestly, and don't let people find out what you are showing. Jiang Wei's matter, when I return to Beijing, I will help you. But in the meantime, you'd better not get me into any trouble. Especially you, Lu Zhiyao. You're the most troublesome of them all. ”

Lin Yinan's words by name made Lu Zhiyao immediately lower his head. Secretly scolded him in his heart, Lu Zhiyao listened to what Bai Lixuan and Lin Yinan said, and slowly began to wander.

Why does Lin Yinan want to help with this? He also wants to deal with the crown prince. The reason? Is it the throne?

Lin Yinan's actions made Lu Zhiyao once again suspect that he wanted to inherit the throne.

For one night, several people spent time in the secret room. After the sky was slightly bright, Bai Lixuan and the three of them went out to explore the wind, leaving Lu Zhiyao and Lin Yinan to stay here.

"The Eighth Prince."

Lin Yinan listened to Lu Yao's hoarse voice because he had not rested all night, and raised his eyes to look over. "Huh? What's wrong? ”

"This time, Xie Lu thanked you." If it weren't for Lin Yinan's move, Lu Zhiyao thought, it would really be difficult for them to get out.

"Is a word of thanks enough to repay me?" Lin Yinan asked slowly, and when Lu Zhiyao's brows were furrowed, he waved his hand and motioned for her to come to his side.

Lu Zhiyao walked slowly in front of Lin Yinan, looking at the bloodshot in Lin Yinan's eyes due to tiredness, Lu Zhiyao felt guilty in his heart.

"After you go back, I don't care how you want to toss the Ye family. But Lin Yixiang, you can't touch him. Although Lin Yinan had warned a few people before, there were some things that he still had to say to Lu Zhiyao clearly.

What Lu Zhiyao said to him last night, Lin Yinan is still between accepting and not accepting until now, contradicting himself. That kind of reason, anyone who is a little more normal, should not believe it. But in the same way, no one who is not stupid will not use that kind of absurd words as an excuse to perfunctory others.
