?
Naturally, Lu Lingzhi would not say that he saw Mo Rongzhan come to her late at night. If he said this, he was afraid that she would ignore him for the rest of her life.
"Before the emperor did not agree to Tang Zhen's proposal, I could guess a little bit." Lu Lingzhi whispered.
"Then you don't have to worry about it now." Ye Zhen said faintly.
Lu Lingzhi used the moonlight to look at the cold expression on her face. He couldn't see what she felt about the Emperor. Today, the Emperor's decree must have hurt her heart. He could see that she had been stunned at that time, as if she hadn't expected it at all. She must have been very sad.
"Yao Yao …" Lu Lingzhi looked at her tenderly. "Don't call me a big brother in the future, okay?"
Ye Zhen looked at him suspiciously. Was he poisoned? It was inexplicable. She had never regarded him as a big brother. He was her enemy! "Have you not recovered from the poison yet? Go back and take your medicine. "
Lu Lingzhi laughed hoarsely. "I have recovered. I don't need to take any more medicine."
"I'll go first." Ye Zhen didn't want to be with him for a moment.
He wanted to tell her not to agree even if the emperor appointed her to marry him, but he couldn't say it. Once he said it, she would certainly reject him even more. "I'll take you back."
Ye Zhen looked at him vigilantly, not letting him get too close to her. She suddenly remembered Lu Wushuang, who had died. "Is Lu Wushuang really dead?"
Lu Lingzhi was slightly startled. "Why do you ask?"
"Because Lu Wushuang will not be so willing to die like that." Ye Zhen said. At first, she really thought that Lu Wushuang was dead, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was impossible. With Lu Wushuang's temperament and Lu Lingzhi's, she would never die so easily.
"You really don't like Wushuang." Lu Lingzhi sighed.
Ye Zhen sneered. Why did she like Lu Wushuang?
"No matter how Wushuang is now, you will never see her again. Just think of her as dead." Lu Lingzhi was now full of desire to gain Ye Zhen's trust. Naturally, he did not want to make her unhappy because of Lu Wushuang.
Just think of her as dead? It seemed that there was something fishy about Lu Wushuang's death. "Brother, you really can do anything for Lu Wushuang."
Lu Lingzhi thought that Ye Zhen was talking about him committing the crime of deceiving the emperor regardless of the danger of the Lu family. He sighed and said, "You also saw that the emperor's favor disappeared in an instant. Do you really want Shuang 'er to live a lonely life in the mountains?"
That was Lu Wushuang's retribution! Ye Zhen looked at Lu Lingzhi coldly. "For Lu Wushuang, will you do anything, including murder and arson?"
"Yaoyao?" Lu Lingzhi looked at her in amazement. He suddenly remembered that he had forced Ye Zhen to drink poisoned wine and set fire to Prince Qin's Mansion. No, Yao Yao could not know these things. He must have thought too much.
Ye Zhen didn't want to arouse Lu Lingzhi's suspicion of her life again. She lifted her foot and strode forward, unwilling to talk to him anymore.
Lu Lingzhi caught up with her and hugged her when she was unguarded. "What I can do for Shuang 'er, I can do the same for you, or even more. Yao Yao, I won't do anything you don't like in the future, okay?" Lu Lingzhi said.
"Lu Lingzhi, what are you doing? Let me go! " Ye Zhen was shocked. When she came back today, she already felt that something was wrong with him. Tonight, he suddenly brought her here. Her strange feeling was even more obvious. Was he crazy?
"Yaoyao, I don't want to scare you." Lu Lingzhi resisted the urge to kiss her. "I'm very happy that you are not my cousin, really."
Ye Zhen regretted not bringing her sleeve dart with her. She thought she wouldn't need it at home. If she had it in her hand, she would not hesitate to kill him. "Let me go, don't make me sick."
However, Lu Lingzhi thought that she only said that because she minded the fact that they were siblings. He told himself that he must not scare her or push her further away. He let go of her shoulder. "Yaoyao, I don't want to be your big brother."
"That's great. I never wanted to be your big brother either." Ye Zhen sneered.
Can I be the Marquis's wife? Lu Lingzhi asked in his heart, but he was afraid that this question would make her hate him more. He sighed. "I'll send you back."
Ye Zhen kept a distance of five steps from him and finally returned to her courtyard. When Lu Lingzhi opened his mouth to say something to her, she had already entered the courtyard and asked the maid to close the door.
Watching her slender back disappear behind the door, Lu Lingzhi couldn't help laughing.
Although this little girl was the same as Ye Zhen, she seemed to be somewhat different. But in order to look at her, he could not help but think of Ye Zhen.
Having known Ye Zhen for two years, he knew that she deliberately suppressed her true temperament. If she had not tried to please Mo Rongzhan at that time, would Ye Zhen be as willful as Yaoyao?
Lu Lingzhi stood outside for a long time before turning and disappearing into the night. A dark shadow followed him silently.
"Princess, you are back." Yu Ping, who had been guarding the door, hurriedly greeted Ye Zhen when he saw her return.
"Well, come in." Ye Zhen nodded to Yu Ping.
Yu Ping whispered to Ye Zhen, "This slave said that you stayed in the upper room …"
"That's right." Ye Zhen said.
The other maids had already brought in water to groom Ye Zhen.
When Ye Zhen tidied up and lay on the bed again, she carefully recalled Lu Lingzhi's strangeness today. What did he mean? It seemed that he really treated her differently. This difference made her feel very scared. She vaguely seemed to have guessed the answer, but the answer made her feel sick. She did not want to explore it at all.
She put Lu Lingzhi's strangeness to the back of her mind. In any case, she would not let Lu Lingzhi go this time.
As for Mo Rongzhan … Thinking of his inexplicable imperial edict, Ye Zhen's heart felt stifled. She increasingly did not understand what he wanted to do. It was absolutely impossible for her to believe that he wanted to betroth her. On the way back, if any man looked at her more than once, he would be unhappy for a long time. To say that he was willing to marry her to someone else, she absolutely did not believe it.
However, she still did not understand what he meant.
Forget it, she would not be able to enter the palace anyway.
Ye Zhen calmed down and no longer thought about those annoying things. Since she was back, she had to face it, no matter what it was.
She just did not know if her master had returned. She thought that her master could be with Mu Qing. She did not expect that … Mu Qing would be killed by Zhao Mingxiao.
Zhao Mingxiao should not have a good ending. Huangfu Chen would not let him go.
