Old Madam Lu, who was in the carriage in front, heard the commotion and immediately asked someone to stop the carriage. "What happened?"
"Old madam, Master Hou's poison suddenly broke out and he wanted to kill Third Miss." The servant looked back and said.
"Quick, help me get off the carriage." Old Madam Lu was shocked and hurriedly asked the maid to help her get off the carriage.
Ye Zhen took advantage of Lu Lingzhi's stupor and ran down. As soon as she saw Old Madam Lu, she immediately choked and burst into tears. "Grandma!"
Old Madam Lu hugged her and asked anxiously, "Yao Yao, what happened? Where is your eldest brother?"
"Eldest brother and I were talking well, but suddenly he grabbed my hand and said he was going to kill me …" Ye Zhen cried, "Grandma, I'm scared."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! Grandma is here. "Old Madam Lu said," How is Master Hou? "
Two bodyguards helped Lu Lingzhi out of the carriage. Lu Lingzhi looked tired. His eyes fell on Ye Zhen, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
"Yan Zhi, are you all right?" Old Madam Lu asked hurriedly.
Lu Lingzhi nodded gently, "Grandma, I'm fine, I just … scared Yao Yao."
Ye Zhen bowed her head and buried it in Old Madam Lu's arms, not even looking at Lu Lingzhi. In the eyes of everyone, she looked frightened.
"Yan Zhi, you'd better go home and rest. Yao Yao and I will go to Hu Guo Temple." Old Madam Lu said. What if the poison broke out again?
Seeing that Ye Zhen didn't want to talk to him at all, Lu Lingzhi understood that she was really frightened by him today. Even if he wanted to explain clearly, she would not listen. "Grandma, I'll go home first."
"You escort Master Hou back carefully." Old Madam Lu said immediately, but her heart was very uncomfortable. She didn't know when she could cure the poison in Yan Zhi's body. This always tortured him, no matter who saw it, they would feel uncomfortable.
"Yao Yao, eldest brother scared you today. It won't happen again." Lu Lingzhi said softly to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen simply hid behind Old Madam Lu.
"Yao Yao …" Lu Lingzhi called out to her and wanted to come over to see her.
"Don't come any closer!" Ye Zhen shouted, clutching Old Madam Lu's clothes tightly with both hands.
Old Madam Lu's heart ached for both Yanzhi and Yaoyao. "Yanzhi, Yaoyao hasn't calmed down yet. You can talk to her when we get home."
"Alright." Lu Lingzhi nodded gently and boarded the carriage again. He sighed and leaned tiredly against the wall. He didn't understand why he suddenly thought of Yao Yao as Ye Zhen. He also couldn't figure out why he still couldn't forget her.
Ye Zhen … When did she take root in his heart that he couldn't get rid of?
For the sake of the Lu Family, for the sake of Shuang 'er, he had truly let Ye Zhen down. But, he had never known … He had thought that he only felt a little pity for Ye Zhen, but it seemed like it was more than that.
"Marquis, are you alright?" Lu Lingzhi's servant asked in a low voice.
"Let's go to Marquis Jingning fu." Maybe it's because Lu Yaoyao looks so much like Ye Zhen that he can't forget her so much.
If Yaoyao was no longer in the Lu family, perhaps everything would be better.
Lu Lingzhi came to find Tang Zhen and happened to meet him as he was about to go out.
"Yanzhi, why are you here?" Tang Zhen was surprised. "I was going to see you. I heard that you were poisoned again. Does Mr. Chen have a way to cure you?"
Listening to his friend's words of concern, Lu Lingzhi smiled faintly. "Let's go in and talk."
Tang Zhen and Lu Lingzhi returned to the study. After drinking tea, he asked in a low voice, "Why did you come to see me today? Is there something wrong?"
"Is the palace not very stable recently?" Lu Lingzhi took the teacup and stirred the tea, looking at Tang Zhen with a smile.
"Yanzhi, you know, I can't tell you too much before the emperor gives an order." Tang Zhen was a bit embarrassed. He and Lu Lingzhi were once friends who went through fire and water, but in the face of the imperial power, he was helpless.
Lu Lingzhi nodded. "I understand. I just asked casually. Now that I am not in the court, I shouldn't ask so much, but … the capital is unpredictable. You have to be careful."
Tang Zhen saw that his friend didn't blame him, so he said with a smile, "With the emperor here, how unpredictable can the capital be? Don't believe the rumors outside."
So, the emperor's injury was not a big deal at all? Lu Lingzhi's eyes flashed. The emperor obviously didn't trust the Lu family as much as before. Shuang 'er had now become a Taoist nun. Before his second uncle left, he talked to him, hoping to send Lu Jing to the palace to help Shuang' er. At that time, he didn't agree, but these days, he was a little shaken.
If there was a girl of the Lu family in the palace, when she was favored, he could mention Shuang 'er in front of the emperor. In the future, Shuang' er might have a chance to return to the palace.
This matter had to be discussed with the Old Lady when he went back. Today, he came to Tang Zhen for another matter. "You mentioned it to me last time. I've tested Third Aunt's tone."
Tang Zhen was stunned when he heard the words. The thing he talked to Lu Lingzhi last time? Wasn't it about him wanting to marry Yao Yao?
Lu Lingzhi looked at him and said with a smile, "Third Aunt also has a very good impression of you. She was very happy to hear your intention. If you really have feelings for Yao Yao, you can go to Third Aunt to propose marriage."
"Yanzhi …" Tang Zhen's heart was really sour, sweet, bitter and spicy.
"What's with your expression? Do you regret it? "Lu Lingzhi's face changed.
Tang Zhen immediately said, "How can my feelings for Yao Yao change? It's just that Yao Yao is now a princess. Even if Third Madam Lu agrees, then … will the emperor agree? "
He didn't dare to say what the emperor did to Lu Yaoyao. After all, they were still brother and sister. He couldn't bear to hurt Yao Yao.
"As long as you propose marriage, the Old Lady will naturally go to the palace to ask the Empress Dowager to marry you. You can also talk to the emperor yourself." Lu Lingzhi said, "I will talk to Third Uncle."
Could he really marry Yao Yao? Between her and the emperor … Tang Zhen thought of the scene in the hunting forest and suddenly felt heartache. "Yanzhi, I really want to marry Yao Yao, but will Yao Yao be willing?"
"Why wouldn't she be willing? Don't worry, just go ahead and propose marriage. " If he wanted to get rid of the demon in his heart, then he had to marry Yao Yao. Otherwise, he would think about her day and night and hurt her sooner or later.
Tang Zhen made up his mind, "Then I will go to Third Madam Lu to propose marriage."
Lu Lingzhi said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
"Yanzhi, I don't think Yao Yao's marriage … will be so easy to settle. She is a princess." Tang Zhen was more worried that she would not marry him because she had the emperor in her heart.
"Yao Yao is a princess, but she is also a daughter of the Lu family." Lu Lingzhi said with a smile.
