?
Ye Zhen sat opposite Lu Lingzhi, tilted her head slightly and looked at him doubtfully. "Big brother, I can go to the college by myself. Your injury is not healed yet. You don't have to see me off."
Lu Lingzhi was also sizing up this cousin of his who had changed so much in such a short period of time. Today, she was wearing a brocade green rose tight dress, which made her skin look as fair as porcelain. A pair of clear eyes shone like the stars in the night sky, and a faint smile hung on the corner of her mouth. She looked beautiful and beautiful, like the flowers of spring.
Such an unforgettable little girl, no wonder Shuang 'er felt uneasy.
"Big brother is going to the Xishan Barracks. It's just on the way." Lu Lingzhi said in a low voice, his gaze moving away from her face. "Yao Yao, did something happen in the palace yesterday?"
Sure enough, he wanted to ask about yesterday's matter! Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise. "Why does big brother ask this? Yesterday … nothing happened. "
Lu Lingzhi didn't miss the surprise and panic on her face. After all, she was a little girl. She didn't know how to hide her thoughts at all. She must be very worried that the concubines in the palace still misunderstood her.
"I know all about it." Lu Lingzhi said.
Ye Zhen opened her mouth and put on a calm expression. "Since you know, there is nothing to hide."
Lu Lingzhi asked in a low voice, "Yaoyao, can you tell me what exactly happened?"
"Doesn't big brother know all about it? Why do I have to say it again? " Ye Zhen said faintly. She wanted to get help from Lu Lingzhi, but she did not intend to change her previous rejection of him. Otherwise, it would surely arouse his suspicion.
This man … is as meticulous as dust. He can see the slightest clue.
Lu Lingzhi smiled faintly. "Grandmother told me something, but I'm still very curious. How did you meet the emperor? What happened between you and the Eldest Princess? "
It turned out that Lu Lingzhi suspected that she deliberately approached the emperor. She said coldly, "When I came out of the prince's residence, I met the eldest princess and her daughter. Liu Hua fell to the ground by herself and insisted that I pushed her down. She also wanted to knock me into the lotus pond next to her. The emperor happened to pass by and saw me, so I was spared. If you suspect that I deliberately met the emperor, then you don't have to think so. I don't have the ability to know the whereabouts of the emperor and coincidentally meet him next to the lotus pond."
Lu Lingzhi looked at her angry face and couldn't help but laugh, "Big Brother doesn't suspect you, don't think too much."
"No doubt?" Ye Zhen looked at him mockingly. "Am I thinking too much? Big Brother, aren't you just worried that I'll make the Imperial Consort unhappy? "
"Yao Yao, the Imperial Consort is the eldest daughter of the Lu family. She is your sister. Yesterday was just a misunderstanding. If it weren't for the eldest princess sowing discord, she would never … misunderstand you." Lu Lingzhi spoke for Lu Wushuang.
Ye Zhen laughed secretly in her heart. He was really a good brother who loved his sister. No wonder he deceived her and even poisoned her for Lu Wushuang. "So the Imperial Consort slapped me, I deserved it!"
Lu Lingzhi's heart skipped a beat. He felt inexplicably distressed by the unwillingness and indifference in her tone. "Big Brother doesn't mean that."
"Eldest brother, I know what you mean. I shouldn't have entered the palace yesterday. If I hadn't, there would not have been this misunderstanding, nor would I have been beaten, nor would I have angered the Imperial Concubine." Ye Zhen's eyes were slightly red, and her tone was a little more angry.
Lu Lingzhi's heart tightened. It was not easy for him to ease his relationship with Yao Yao. He didn't want her to hate him because of this matter. "This has nothing to do with you. I will go to the palace today to explain to the Imperial Consort."
What is there to explain? Ye Zhen had been wandering in the palace for two years. She was too familiar with Lu Wushuang's temperament. She must have been thinking of ways to deal with her. If Lu Lingzhi spoke for her in front of Lu Wushuang, he would not get a good result. It would only make Lu Wushuang hate her even more.
However, she wanted Lu Wushuang to hate her and deal with her. People were very strange. They all liked to sympathize with the weak. Between her and Lu Wushuang, she was the weak one.
She wanted Old Madam Lu and the Lu family to stand on her side. She wanted Lu Lingzhi to no longer do anything for Lu Wushuang. Although it was a little difficult, she had to try to know if she could do it.
"You explain … Will the Imperial Consort believe it?" Ye Zhen bit her lip, the grievance in her eyes could not be hidden. "I explained it yesterday, but she didn't believe what I said at all."
Lu Lingzhi smiled and said, "The Imperial Consort is not familiar with you, so she misunderstood you."
"The Imperial Consort is not familiar with me, but is big brother familiar with me?" Ye Zhen asked faintly. "Don't you also think that I met the Emperor on purpose?"
"Well, it's big brother who said the wrong thing just now. I didn't think so." Lu Lingzhi said helplessly.
Ye Zhen glanced at him, "It's right that you think so. The Emperor is young, handsome, and aloof. Who doesn't like him?"
Lu Lingzhi's face changed slightly, "Yao Yao?"
The corner of Ye Zhen's mouth curled up slightly, and a touch of slyness flashed in her eyes. "I have lived a carefree and carefree life in the Border Town since I was a child. I have long been accustomed to an unrestrained life. If I live in the palace, I would rather go back to the Border Town."
This was her heartfelt words. Three years of living in Prince Qin's Mansion, two years of being trapped in the palace, watching the concubines fight with each other, just to get Mo Rongzhan's attention. Was it worth it?
Mo Rongzhan was a cold man who never paid much attention to any woman. It was too tiring to fall in love with such a man. What's more, he was the Emperor.
Accompanying the Emperor was like accompanying a tiger. How could Ye Zhen repeat the same mistake and fall in love with Mo Rongzhan?
Lu Lingzhi smiled, "You don't have to go back to the Border Town in the future, and you will be free."
Ye Zhen raised her chin, "Of course, I am going to be a female medical officer in the future."
"Why do you want to be a female medical officer? Many women stay at home after getting married to take care of their husbands and children. "Lu Lingzhi raised his eyebrows and asked. It was the first time he heard that Ye Zhen had such an idea.
"Why must women stay at home to take care of their husbands and children? Can't they have their own ideals? I just want to be a female medical officer. "Ye Zhen said.
"Didn't you say you don't want to enter the palace? To be a female medical officer … you have to go to the palace often. "Lu Lingzhi asked with a smile.
Ye Zhen glared at him, "How is that the same?"
Lu Lingzhi was amused by her, "If someone bullies you in the college, remember to tell your elder brother."
"What's the use of telling you? Are you going to help me beat them?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and asked.
"I thought you would want to beat people yourself." Lu Lingzhi's handsome face showed a gentle smile.
Ye Zhen looked at his familiar smiling face and felt even more disgusted in her heart, but she returned him a sweet and proud smile. "Yes, I will do that."
