Lin Zhiyao was undoubtedly the one who knew best what the Lin family had done after Lu Zhixing became blind.
But she did not dissuade him, but just watched coldly. Now she came to Lu Zhixing for help on behalf of Prince Yu, which was really a bit strange.
Song Yushu glanced at her up and down and found that her hair style had changed, making her look like a woman.
It seems something happened between her and King Yu.
"Cousin, what do you mean by this? Prince Yu's current situation is completely different from yours back then. Your title is still there, and all the benefits are still there, but he doesn't even have the title of prince!" Lin Zhiyao burst into tears and looked at Lu Zhixing pitifully.
But she forgot that Lu Zhixing was a "blind man", and this pitiful appearance could only be seen by Song Yushu, whom she disliked.
Lu Zhixing saw Lin Zhiyao's expression through the silk ribbon, but he became suspicious. She was not a nostalgic person. Her goal was very clear, and she would never waste too much time on one person.
Just like before, when Lu Zhixing's eyesight was damaged, she immediately asked Lin Zong to withdraw the engagement with her. Although the Lin family did not withdraw this decision and Lu Zhixing would definitely not marry her in the future, this proved Lin Zhiyao's temper.
"Why are you so excited?" Lu Zhixing slowly picked up a cup of tea and asked calmly.
Lin Zhiyao's face froze. "I, I, Prince Yu is my fiancé, so of course I'm nervous. He's also my cousin, so how can I not be excited?!"
"Really?" Lu Zhixing nodded without any further comment.
"Cousin, I know that the Lin family has done something wrong to you before, but we are all family. You have been angry for so long and that is enough. You can't just stand by and watch someone die!" Lin Zhiyao wanted to push away Liu Bai's sword handle, but she couldn't move it. She could only glare at him fiercely.
Song Yushu took over the conversation, genuinely a bit curious. "Prince Yu was only demoted to a prince, but he still has plenty of food and clothing. Why is Miss Lin making it sound so serious?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, eunuch?" Lin Zhiyao glared at him fiercely. "For a prince to lose his princely status is more painful than death! Don't try to sow discord in front of my cousin!"
Originally, Lu Zhixing wanted to find out why Lin Zhiyao came to him for help, but her attitude towards Song Yushu made his face darken. He raised his chin towards Liu Bai and said, "Throw her back to the Lin Mansion."
"Cousin! Cousin! Don't touch me!" Lin Zhiyao was carried away by Liu Bai like a chicken. She struggled and shouted at Lu Zhixing.
It was not until Lin Zhiyao was dragged out of the yard that Song Yushu shook his head. Judging from the bun on her head, Lin Zhiyao must have been touched by Prince Yu, and she was unwilling to be just a princess, so she came to him.
"Lin Zhiyao has never been so crazy and shameless before." Lu Zhixing was a little confused. In the past, Lin Zhiyao was the eldest daughter of the Lin family. Not to mention her character, she was still arrogant.
This time, both of them asked him for help, probably for the first time.
Song Yushu turned around and asked him seriously, "You really don't understand?"
"Why should I understand?" Song Yushu's tone was quite strange. Lu Zhixing thought it was because Lin Zhiyao had come to him unexpectedly, which made him feel strange and uncomfortable. He quickly explained, "She and I are not familiar with each other."
Since Lu Zhixing was acting like this, Song Yushu wanted to tease him a little. She poured him a cup of tea, sat across from him, and asked seriously, "Are you really not familiar with each other? You two are childhood sweethearts, after all."
Although the two are cousins, in this era, such marriages between cousins are common, as this is the only way to consolidate the family's glory.
"What childhood sweetheart? I didn't have time to pay attention to her when I was a child." Seeing Song Yushu's serious expression, Lu Zhixing thought she was angry and wanted to move to Song Yushu's position.
Song Yushu raised his hand and said, "Sit down, I haven't finished what I'm saying yet."
Lu Zhixing sat down obediently, then glanced at Liu Bai and Liu An. After they left, he smiled and said, "I'm really not familiar with her. She used to come to me, but I didn't have time to pay attention to her."
When Lu Zhixing was young, he had a lot to learn and often stayed in the old man's study until late at night, a place that Lin Zhiyao forbad him to visit.
Although Lin Zong regarded Lin Zhiyao as the same as her brother, reading, writing, and even practicing martial arts, it was just that Lin Zhiyao thought martial arts were vulgar and did not learn them.
But Old Master Lin was a very traditional person. He didn't like girls to show up in public, and he didn't even like girls to study. He believed that girls from the Lin family could only be used as bargaining chips for marriages and should not have their own thoughts.
Therefore, the arrogant and domineering Lin Zhiyao was not liked by Old Master Lin.
Seeing Lu Zhixing's expression trying to please her, Song Yushu felt very happy. Who would have thought that Prince Jing, who had not cared about her before, would value her so much now?
Feeling relieved for a moment, Song Yushu couldn't keep feeling this way. Moreover, she had never considered Lin Zhiyao a love rival. She chuckled, "I, I believe you."
Seeing Song Yushu laughing like this, Lu Zhixing knew that Song Yushu was just teasing him, and he felt relieved. As long as he was not really angry, he was glad. He did not say anything to Song Yushu, but just smiled helplessly.
"But you really didn't see it?" Song Yushu restrained the smile on his face to prevent Lu Zhixing from getting angry.
"What did you see?" Lu Zhixing was confused.
Seeing that Lu Zhixing really didn't know, Song Yushu revealed the answer, "Lin Zhiyao and Prince Yu must be married."
Lu Zhixing frowned, "Why do you say that?"
He always believed that if a couple had sex before getting married, it would be disrespectful to the woman. He frowned because he disdained King Yu.
After all, these two people are interested in their own interests, but they still became husband and wife before getting married!
"One is that the arrogant Lin Zhiyao came to you without any respect, and the other is that her hair bun has changed. Although it is not obvious, it is indeed a woman's hair bun." Song Yushu was very sure, because women in ancient times were very particular about their hair buns, and there were requirements for combing their hair.
As a servant serving her master, she had studied these things very clearly.
Lu Zhixing didn't know much about this and had never paid attention to how Lin Zhiyao combed her hair.
Song Yushu was very attentive and had a good understanding of all this. Lu Zhixing nodded and said, "In this case, I can take this opportunity to do the Lin family a favor."
"What do you mean?" Song Yushu was confused.
"Father's attitude towards the Crown Prince shows that he has a grudge against him." Lu Zhixing patiently explained to Song Yushu, "So he must be trying to balance the court situation."
Song Yushu gradually understood, "The most useful people to balance the court are the Lin family and Prince Yu!"
