391. Episode 391

Murong Zhan looked down at Lu Lingzhi who was kneeling in front of him. If he hadn't picked up the torn purse in the grove, he still couldn't remember that the little girl who rescued him was named Yaoyao. He would never doubt Lu Shuang'er, Lu Shuang'er is not a smart person, she has no ability to make arrangements, let alone make him have no doubts before, he has always suspected that behind Lu Shuanger, there is a more shrewd person.

He suspected that that person was Lu Lingzhi.

How many years has Lu Lingzhi been by his side? Ever since he was canonized as the King of Qin, he has released goodwill to himself and helped him intentionally or unintentionally. If it wasn't for the Lu family's all-in-one help back then, he wouldn't have won the battle so easily, and he wouldn't have been subdued so easily. For the soldiers on the border, the Lu family has contributed to him.

However, after the incident with Lu Shuang'er, the merits and demerits have been balanced, and he doesn't want to doubt Lu Lingzhi.

"Marquis of Anyang, where have you been these two days?" Mo Rongzhan looked at him with low eyes. He ordered Lu Lingzhi to enter the palace two days ago. Even if he was in Chengde Villa at that time, he should have returned to the capital yesterday. .

Lu Lingzhi lowered his head, "The minister is recuperating in the hot spring villa, and when he heard that the emperor had summoned him, he rushed back immediately."

Mo Rongzhan turned around and entered the imperial study room, "I thought you had recovered."

"Yes, the toxins on my body have indeed been cured, but because the poisoning time is too long, most of my internal strength has been lost, and I need to be recuperated slowly to recover." Lu Lingzhi entered behind Mo Rongzhan.

"Yanzhi, how many years have you been with me?" Mo Rongzhan sat down behind the desk and looked at Lu Lingzhi calmly. Today he realized that Lu Lingzhi seemed to have remained unchanged for so many years, always the same. With a gentle appearance like water, such a person has the deepest scheming.

Lu Lingzhi replied in a low voice, "It should be ten years since I returned to the emperor."

It has been ten years! But Murong Zhan has only now discovered that he has never understood this courtier who has been with him for ten years.

"Have you seen Ye Yaoyao before?" Mo Rongzhan tapped his fingers on the table lightly. Doctor Qi was treating Ye Yaoyao for so long but failed to restore her memory. On the contrary, many people around her were praising her. These people Why do you think he will definitely bring Ye Yaoyao into the palace? If it wasn't for those people, Ye Yaoyao wouldn't have any illusions.

How could Ye Yaoyao be mentioned? Lu Lingzhi immediately became vigilant. In order not to arouse the emperor's suspicion, he never went to see Ye Yaoyao when he handed over the letter. He did so to avoid suspicion and also to prevent the emperor from seeing any clues.

"Back to the emperor, I have never seen Miss Ye." Lu Lingzhi said in a low voice.

Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly, he would not believe this, "Yanzhi, in the correspondence between your father and Lu Shuang'er, it seems that Ye Yaoyao has no nickname."

"I didn't see a nickname in the letter..." Lu Lingzhi was beating his heart. He didn't know what Ye Zhen's nickname was, but he knew very well that this nickname was the key to the emperor's suspicion of Shuang'er. The emperor thought of that nickname, and Shuang'er will not be suspected until now.

"I remember..." Mo Rongzhan looked at Lu Lingzhi with cold eyes, "The girl who saved me is named Yaoyao, the same name as your cousin."

Lu Lingzhi suddenly raised his head, looking at Murong Zhan with a pale face, Yaoyao? Ye Zhen's nickname is Yaoyao?

impossible! How could there be such a coincidence in this world? Ye Zhen and Yaoyao not only look alike, but how could they even have the same name.

Tao Zhiyaoyao, its Ye Zhenzhen?

Tao Zhiyaoyao...his Ye Zhenzhen...

Lu Lingzhi suddenly wanted to laugh, so it turned out to be like this, so that's how Ye Zhen's nickname came from, but he didn't remember it at all.

"I used to think that the person who saved me was Yaoyao, but she was not in the capital at that time." Murong Zhan had a mocking smile on his lips, "There is a cousin named Yaoyao, and it is absolutely impossible for Lu Shuang'er to have a little girl." The name is Yaoyao, it is indeed very smart for you to find Ye Yaoyao as a substitute, because she is the most suitable candidate."

"Your Majesty, I don't know about Ye Yaoyao, and I don't know why she was imprisoned." Lu Lingzhi hurriedly said, he was already in a state of confusion, what is the relationship between Ye Zhen and Yaoyao? What is their relationship?

Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "It doesn't matter if you know or don't know, I don't care about this matter with you."

He has now lost his thoughts on looking for that little girl, it's not that he has forgotten what happened back then, it's just... for some reason, since Yaoyao said that the person might be Ye Zhen, he doesn't want to look for it anymore, so that's it. , if there is a real destiny, she will appear by herself.

As for Ye Yaoyao, let her continue to act as a substitute for now.

Sweat dripped from Lu Lingzhi's forehead. He no longer knew what the emperor wanted to do. Before entering the palace, he thought that the emperor only saw him because of Yaoyao's affairs. He had already thought of a way to say goodbye. Let Yaoyao enter the palace, but the emperor doesn't seem to want to talk about Yaoyao with him.

Mo Rongzhan's tone suddenly became severe, "But Lu Shuang'er's death, I can't spare you!"

"Your Majesty..." Lu Lingzhi's already pale face became even paler. Does the Emperor even know that Shuang'er is still alive?

"As a brother, you don't know Lu Shuang'er too well." Mo Rongzhan said coldly, "How could Lu Shuang'er go to a place like the kitchen? Even if she is deposed as an aunt, she will try her best to make her life better. You thought you could cover up all the truth by burning down the entire Nianci Temple, but unfortunately, the little nun who was with Lu Shuanger is still alive." Murongzhan stared at Lu Lingzhi sharply, and he could allow Lu Lingzhi to fight for power in any way , but he is absolutely not allowed to deceive and conceal himself like this.

Lu Lingzhi's back was covered with sweat. He thought that the matter with Shuang'er was flawless. He never thought that the emperor would have doubts, and even found the little nun, who was obviously burned to death...

"Your majesty, I don't understand what you're talking about. Shuang'er is indeed dead." Lu Lingzhi said hoarsely.

Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "As long as she doesn't appear in Jin Kingdom again, I can treat her as dead, but I can't forgive you for your crime of deceiving the king."

Lu Lingzhi pursed her thin lips and buried her head low.

"Designation." Mo Rongzhan looked at Lu Lingzhi and said with a cold voice, "Lu Lingzhi, the Marquis of Anyang, committed a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. Considering his great achievements, he will forgive his crimes and punish the nine clans. He will abolish his Marquis and remove the title of General. Go to the border towns to guard the border in person, without my will, you are not allowed to return to Beijing."

All the crimes he committed were borne by him alone.

Lu Lingzhi kowtowed heavily, "I... accept the order."
