When she talked about this dirty trap, her tone was calm, as if it was extremely normal.
Su Yangyang's eyes widened. She wanted to reach out to help someone, but was held back by Zhongxiao beside her.
Zhongxiao's mind turned a few times and he already had a plan.
Although Princess Ninh Binh is not a prince, she still has a certain influence in the court.
Judging from the situation, she was so indifferent. It was obvious that she was destined to win this person, but there was no need to step in.
Su Yangyang struggled for a few seconds. Although she felt sympathetic, she didn't say anything.
Her own affairs are in a mess right now, and her senior brother is nowhere to be seen, so she'd better not get into trouble. Maybe things are not that bad after all.
Lu Yan scanned the room and finally settled on Lin Xi.
His voice was hoarse: "Last time at the racecourse, you helped me avoid them."
People who have helped once are more likely to help again.
Lin Xi: "..."
This is a clear threat! Little bastard, do you know what you're talking about?
Lu Yan looked at her, his eyes burning brighter and brighter.
His mother-in-law was a beauty who paid tribute to the tribe. The tribe was destroyed soon after, and the mother-in-law was in a dilemma in the palace. She died not long after giving birth to him.
He was helpless since he was a child. When he was six years old, he was accidentally discovered to have a photographic memory. The palace officials took away all his papers, pens and books.
He was worried that he, a prince with foreign blood, would suffer from cholera.
But even so, he still found books secretly and learned to read.
When the two countries were at war, he gained the trust of the eunuch supervising the war and quietly went to the front line.
He preferred the steaming death to the lifeless cold palace.
The eunuch who oversaw the war listened to his advice and captured six cities in one month.
He thought it was a good start, but when the enemy sent someone to assassinate him, he failed to dodge and was seriously injured.
Later, the king became seriously ill, and several princes tried to seize power. Hastily withdrew the troops and signed an alliance.
He was also found out from the cold palace and sent to the Zhou Dynasty as a hostage to show his sincerity.
He didn't want to be a hostage, so he found a way to escape halfway.
Taking over the identity of the youngest son of the Lu family living outside the capital, he still arrived in the capital of the Zhou Dynasty.
He grew up in the cold palace since he was a child, never appeared in court, and didn't even have a name.
Except for a few palace members of Zheng State, almost no one has seen his face and is not afraid of being exposed.
Originally I thought it would be nice to live under a different identity, but instead I was favored by the second princess of the Zhou Dynasty.
Lu Yan had been careful until his "brother" called him out today. While talking, I kept trying to drink from him.
He refused to drink the wine, but he didn't expect that the drug was in the incense.
It was a secret medicine in the Zhou Dynasty's palace. It was colorless and odorless, and was expensive. However, just one stick of incense would make one's limbs weak.
Lu Yan tried his best to escape from the wine shop. Seeing that his physical strength was gradually declining, he hid in the Qionglou Tower where there were many guests and acted according to the opportunity.
Lin Xi met the other party's gaze: "You... are quite capable."
It's been half a month, and the princess hasn't succeeded yet and is still thinking about it.
He can be considered a talent after all.
No wonder it attracts bees and butterflies, this face is not only good-looking, but also has sharp eyes, and is a bit charming.
Aloof and sharp, like a sharp sword, even if your fingers are cut, you still have to hold it.
Ordinary people might be daunted by this kind of prickly beauty, but when they meet someone like the princess who holds power and is unscrupulous.
Instead, I want to conquer.
Zhong Xiao saw Lin Xi looking at the person and reminded him, "You'd better not get involved."
Lin Xi didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, but since Zhong Xiaoxiao said so...
She smiled slightly: "Our restaurant is looking for a dancer. Can you dance?"
Lu Yan's throat rolled: "I can't, but I can play the piano."
Lin Xi clapped her hands together: "Okay, our restaurant is short of a cashier, and it's you."
Everyone: "..."
The author has something to say:
All the subordinates: Damn, the cup will be burned sooner or later!
Xiao Lu wanted to hold back and do bad things in the early stage. Very good in the mid-term.
In the later stage... he thinks bad things and is clingy.

Chapter 9
◎Poverty is the most murderous◎
Lin Xi: "What are you watching me do? Plucking the strings of a piano is almost like plucking an abacus."
"How can this compare?" Su Yangyang said, and like everyone else, looked at King Xin, who was famous for his superb piano skills in the capital.
Zhong Xiao caught everyone's gaze and took a deep breath.
He didn't want to talk.
Lin Xi looked at the young man in front of him with a smile in his eyes: "Since you are the accountant of a restaurant, at least tonight in Qionglou, I won't let anything happen to you."
Lu Yan was quite surprised that she was actually willing to help.
But at the moment, he couldn't think too much. He covered his chest and hid sideways in the inner room of the box where diners could change their clothes.
He bit the tip of his tongue to stay awake. I just hope she can really help.
Lu Xiang stepped in and was stunned when he saw everyone in the box.
After a moment, he locked his eyes on Shen Chongxiao's face and quickly stepped forward to salute: "Greetings to His Highness King Xin."
But in my heart, I was very surprised, why are the third-bedroom girl and cousin girl who just returned from the Lin family here.
Su Yangyang wore a bright yellow embroidered long dress, which shone under the light. She was graceful and graceful, and her facial features were as beautiful as peach blossoms.
It goes without saying that she is the most beautiful woman in the capital but also extremely talented.
In comparison, this cousin is no less generous.
Wearing a white dress with dark patterns and a brocade skirt, her cheeks are as fragrant as snow, and her bun is tied loosely with a jade hairpin.
Those eyes were clean and cold, like the moon shining over a cold river.
It seems weak, but it makes people dare not be arrogant.
Lu Xiang secretly marveled that although Wang Xin's power was far inferior to that of the Crown Prince and Prince Duan, he could still have such two beauties as companions.
While he was amazed and envious, he then thought that if he could accomplish what he did today and please the princess, he would not have to worry about not having the opportunity to spend a lot of money on the beauty.
Lu Xiang and Li Lan are fair-weather friends, and they are both blessed by aristocratic families. Although they have no official positions, they have nothing to worry about in their lives.
Both of them have average reading and knowledge, and they are the best in playing roles and listening to plays. Just because Li Lan was tall and handsome, he became Princess Pingning's guest a few months ago.
Li Lan is a master of pleasure and knows how to please women. On weekdays, she often looks for beautiful men to present to the princess, and comes up with some ridiculous ways to enjoy herself.
Now he was the most favored among all the people. Princess Pingning not only hired errands for him, but also rewarded him with a lot of money in private.
Half a month ago, Princess Pingning fell in love with Lu Yan and wanted him to serve her.
After several hints that she had lost her patience, Li Lan took the initiative to ask Ying to relieve her worries.
Only then did Li Lan find his old fair-weather friend, Lu Xiang, the eldest son of the Lu family.
Lu Xiang is naturally willing to hook up with Princess Pingning.
Besides, the imperial court now has a principle of avoidance in appointing officials. Brothers of the same generation in a family will only re-appoint one person.
Lu Yan is very hardworking in his daily rolls. If he gets involved in the future, he will be blocking the way of the eldest brother and his brother.
If not, recommending Lu Yan to face the princess would not only please the princess, but also eliminate hidden dangers.
The princess has always liked the new and dislikes the old. Although her appearance is not short of gold and silver, Lu Yan's reputation has been ruined because of this, and it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the officialdom in the future.
Apart from anything else, his cousin was so handsome that he was stunned several times without realizing it.
Princess Pingning had always liked tall, masculine faces in the past, so it was understandable that she could fall in love with him this time and still miss him.
Lu Xiang and Li Lan hit it off immediately, and the two set a foolproof trap.
However, Lu Yan was ignorant and was able to escape despite being drugged.
The princess is waiting in the carriage downstairs.
He had promised that he would not make any mistakes and let Lu Yan escape, but he couldn't explain it.
After Lu Xiang paid his respects to His Highness King Xin, he said bravely, "Excuse me, have you seen a man in black? My cousin and I got into an argument over trivial matters, and in a daze... I saw him enter the box."
Lin Xi looked indifferent: "It's true that you were in a trance, and no one came in."
Just as Zhong Xiao was about to speak, Lin Xi spoke first again: "Still not leaving? Your Highness, King Xin, doesn't like to be disturbed when dining. Do you want to ask the restaurant waiter to invite you out?"
Although Lu Xiang was unwilling to give in, he was helpless.
He glanced at the box again before exiting. Although he knew that Lu Yan was most likely there, he couldn't rush in and search.
