Yan Xiaoliu spent all his savings to buy a pair of exquisite bracelets. He carefully put them in his arms. In fact, the jade color of this pair of bracelets was not the best. If it was in the past, he would not even look at it. Now, because it was to be given to Ming Yu, he felt it was precious.
"Your Highness, Zhong Yue is missing." Shen Yi whispered to Ming Xi.
"Where did uncle go?" Yan Xiaoliu asked hurriedly.
Shen Yi said, "It seems that someone is following him. He should have led those people away."
Yan Xiaoliu walked out and looked around with a frown.
"Go to the teahouse over there and sit down and wait." Ming Xi said.
If Zhong Yue wanted to lead away the people who were following him, then he should find a chance to see Yan Xiaoliu.
They walked to the opposite teahouse, not noticing that their every move was seen by the people in the room above the teahouse.
"Master, that seems to be Shen Yi. Who is the person he is protecting?"
Standing by the window of the room was none other than Lu Lingzhi and his servant.
"The prince of Jin Kingdom." This was the son of Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan. He looked so much like Mo Rongzhan and was protected by Shen Yi and Xue Lin. Who else could it be but Prince Ming Xi?
"Prince?" Luo Cheng's eyes flashed with killing intent. "Master, do you want to arrest him?"
Lu Lingzhi looked at him coldly. "Do you think Mo Rongzhan let his son go out of the palace with only a few people? You will be killed before you are caught. "
Luo Cheng didn't think so much. He just wanted to catch the child and vent his anger for his master.
"What about Zhong Yue?" Lu Lingzhi's eyes were fixed on Ming Xi. He heard that she gave birth to a pair of twins. If the son looked so much like Mo Rongzhan, then who did her daughter look like?
"Let's go. Our people will follow." Luo Cheng said.
Lu Lingzhi's fingers gently touched the edge of the window. "Zhong Yue followed our people to the capital. Don't let him investigate any further, or he will find out about the palace."
Keeping Zhong Yue alive was to find out the remnants of the Yan family. If he continued to investigate in the capital, sooner or later, Mo Rongzhan in the palace would be alarmed. At that time, he might find out about the spies he had arranged in the capital.
"Yes, master." Luo Cheng whispered.
Luo Cheng lowered his head and retreated. After a while, he returned.
"Master, that person in the palace wants to see Lu Yaoyao." Luo Cheng told Lu Lingzhi the news he had just received.
Mo Ronghui still didn't believe that Lu Yaoyao was Ye Zhen.
"Then let him see her," Lu Lingzhi said. "Tell him to wait for news. Let him see Lu Yaoyao when she appears."
Let Mo Ronghui see Lu Yaoyao. As long as he sees Lu Yaoyao who looks exactly like Ye Zhen, he will definitely be moved. Once Mo Ronghui believes that Lu Yaoyao is Ye Zhen, he will certainly not continue to stay in the palace waiting for death.
Such a good chess piece … would only be useful if it was moved.
"Go and find out who the young man beside the prince is." Lu Lingzhi looked at Yan Xiaoliu standing behind Ming Xi with a heavy gaze. This youth looked somewhat familiar to him.
"A child. He should be a servant." Luo Cheng took a look and felt that the young man was too beautiful. He must have been chosen from somewhere to serve the prince.
Lu Lingzhi looked at him coldly. "Find out."
Luo Cheng silently nodded. "Yes, master."
It was not until Ming Xi and the others entered the teahouse that Lu Lingzhi withdrew his gaze and picked up the secret letter from the table to read.
The Eldest Princess of Qi and Cheng Zheng were about to arrive in the capital …
"Zhao Yong probably won't live for long." Lu Lingzhi revealed a faint smile. He had countless chess pieces in his hands, but he was also a chess piece in Zhao Yong's hands to deal with the Jin Kingdom in the future. He was also a sharp blade that Zhao Yong had hidden.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yong did not know that he was indeed a double-edged blade. Dealing with the Jin Kingdom would also deal with him.
"He is the only person who knows your identity. It is a good thing that he is dead." Luo Cheng said.
"Lu Tingzhi … is back." Lu Lingzhi saw the last letter. He was startled for a moment and then frowned.
Luo Cheng lowered his head. "I entered the city yesterday and did not have time to tell you."
Did he not have time to tell him, or did he not dare to tell him?
"Madam came back with you?" Lu Lingzhi's voice became colder.
Luo Cheng sighed in his heart. What happened to Lu Lingzhi today was all caused by Madam Liu and her daughter. Now that Madam Liu was back, he hoped that the master would not be soft-hearted. "Madam came back with us. She is now living in Lu Shiming's house."
"Hmm." Lu Lingzhi responded faintly. Since he had decided to change his appearance and leave, he had never thought of recognizing anyone in the Lu family.
Even if Lu Wushuang was missing.
Others might not know how Lu Wushuang disappeared in Yuan Country, but he knew.
Lu Wushuang was in Ye Zhen's hands.
"Don't worry about them." His second brother was no longer the brother who needed his protection. He probably did not want to see him either.
Let him make a name for himself in the capital.
…
…
At this time, Lu Tingzhi was talking to Lu Shiming in the study of the Lu family.
"Third Uncle, are you looking for me?" Lu Tingzhi walked into the study and looked at Lu Shiming respectfully.
"Sit down, I have something to say to you." Lu Shiming said.
"Yes." Lu Tingzhi did not know what his Third Uncle wanted to say to him. Was it because he saw his mother's unreasonable behavior today that he finally couldn't stand them anymore?
Lu Shiming glanced at his nephew. "I heard that you are inquiring about the original Lu family's mansion. Do you want to buy it?"
"Third Uncle knows?" Lu Tingzhi looked up in surprise. He had asked someone to inquire about it before he returned to the capital. Moreover, it was done secretly. How did his Third Uncle know?
"I was the one who bought the mansion with your second uncle." Lu Shiming whispered. "You want to buy it from me. Of course, I know."
Lu Tingzhi was even more surprised. "Third Uncle …"
"That is the mansion left by grandfather. Naturally, I can't let your second uncle sell it. I am afraid that it will cause trouble. So, I asked someone to buy it. Your second uncle still does not know that the mansion is in my hands. Are you planning to move in?" Lu Shiming asked.
"Our first branch is sorry to the ancestors of the Lu family. I want to buy the mansion as compensation."
Lu Shiming nodded gently. This nephew was still filial. "What do you think of what your mother said in the upper room?"
"Third Uncle!" Lu Tingzhi hurriedly stood up. "Don't take Mother's words to heart. We have always owed you. You don't need to do anything else. I will work hard on my own."
"How do you want to work hard?" Lu Shiming asked in a low voice. "You are a study attendant in the Hanlin Academy in the Kingdom of Qi. Do you want to take the imperial examination again in the Kingdom of Jin?"
Lu Tingzhi was silent for a moment. "It would be good if I could take the imperial examination again and become an official … I'm just afraid …"
"Afraid that His Majesty and Her Highness won't trust you?" Lu Shiming asked in a low voice.
