A rare opportunity

Chapter 324: Meet Lu Junlan Again

Not long after, the eunuch Wei came back and whispered something in the ear of Eunuch Liu. Eunuch Liu immediately stood up and said to Li Yu:

"Doctor Li, please follow me!"

Qi Biao and the others also stood up, but were stopped by the eunuch Wei who stretched out his hand and said:

"The Second Prince wants to see the Imperial Physician alone. Please wait here for a moment!"

Qi Biao and Liu Hai were fine, but Hu Qian felt a little regretful! He was even more jealous of Li Yu.

That eunuch Liu seemed to be very interested in Li Yu, and asked a lot of questions along the way, including Li Yu's origin and family. Of course, the most asked question was about the trip to Tianxing City some time ago.

Li Yu was a little puzzled. As an imperial physician, shouldn't he be more concerned about his medical skills? Why was he so concerned about the affairs of Tianxing City? But then he thought, his title of imperial physician was not earned by his medical skills, but by his trip to Tianxing City! Maybe in the eyes of this eunuch Liu, his title of imperial physician was not worthy of his status?

Therefore, he did not care. But when asked, he answered truthfully without hiding anything. Besides, apart from the two demon kings, Mo Qiang and Cha Kang, there was nothing to hide.

The two walked and talked and soon arrived at Yao Lin's residence. The eunuch guarding the gate saw Eunuch Liu and Li Yu and hurried forward to greet them. He said to Eunuch Liu:

"Please come in, eunuch! The Second Prince is waiting for you!"

Eunuch Liu nodded immediately and walked in first.

Li Yu entered the hall and saw Yao Lin staring at him. He immediately knelt down and shouted:

"I, Li Yu, pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Second Prince!"

Yao Lin glanced at Li Yu again and said:

"Get up!"

Li Yu kowtowed and said:

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Fang stood up and stood aside with his head down. Yao Lin did not speak, but just stood aside quietly. Li Yu could not help but wonder, what did he mean by calling him over without saying anything?

After a long while, Yao Lin said softly:

"Li Yu, do you know? Jin Youguang has confessed!"

Li Yu bowed and said:

"Congratulations, Second Prince!"

But he was thinking in his heart: Since Jin Youguang confessed, it means the mastermind behind the poisoning has been uncovered. Why doesn't the Second Prince seem excited?

"Haha! Congratulations? What is there to congratulate? Jin Youguang claims to be the mastermind. Do you believe him?"

Yao Lin sneered.

"This……"

Li Yu was stunned for a moment and speechless.

"Jin Youguang admitted that he coveted Hua Qianyu's position as deputy city lord, so he bribed the servants of the Hua Mansion to assassinate Hua Yu. In order to prevent the Hua family from marrying into the royal family, he was able to bring down Hua Qianyu and take the position himself!"

Yao Lin said in a deep voice.

"This……"

"Humph! Even you don't believe it, but they do! To secretly harm a royal relative is a heinous crime that will punish the entire clan! I don't believe that a mere elder of the Tianxing Sect would be so courageous!"

"This……"

He didn't know whether he was brave or not, but according to his investigation, the mastermind behind the scenes was someone else!

"Li Yu, you are the one who investigated this case. Don't you have anything to tell me?"

Yao Lin suddenly changed the subject and asked.

Yao Lin's sudden questioning made Li Yu not know how to answer for a moment! You know, the reason why he didn't interrogate Jin Youguang immediately after catching him was that he didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs. He didn't want to know who that person was, because once he knew, it would be detrimental to himself and the people around him. According to his judgment, that person must be a person with all-powerful hands and eyes! For such people, the less you know about their secrets, the better, it is best to know nothing at all!

"This... Your Highness! After Jin Youguang was arrested, I didn't have the chance to interrogate him, then..."

"I know that! You don't need to explain! Alas! The reason I asked you is just that I am unwilling to give up!"

Yao Lin shook his hand and sighed.

"Ah! It doesn't matter whether you know it or not! It's better this way, so that we don't have to quarrel with each other! All right, you go down first!"

Yao Lin seemed a little uninterested and waved his hand.

Just as Li Yu was about to bow, he heard someone outside the door shouting:

"The princess is here!"

Panicked, Li Yu hurried to the door! But he was grabbed by Eunuch Liu, who whispered:

"Don't offend the princess! Lower your head and stand beside me!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu hurried over, lowered his head, and stood beside him respectfully.

Yao Lin seemed to be in a good mood when he heard this, and immediately stood up with a smile.

Li Yu heard a series of footsteps, followed by a crisp voice:

"Jun Lan has met the second brother!"

Li Yu was shocked when he heard the voice! He froze on the spot! Just because the voice was extremely familiar! A beautiful face that revealed inviolability instantly appeared in his mind! He was a little confused, why did the princess' voice sound so similar to hers? Could it be her? But he knew that it was impossible! Because the person's surname was not Yao! He wanted to look up, but he didn't dare!

"Hahaha! No need to be so polite, little sister! Why are you back? When did you come back? Why didn't you let someone notify me?"

Yao Lin laughed.

"My second brother is getting married, how can I not come back to congratulate him? I just arrived today, and after meeting mother, I came to visit my second brother!"

The princess laughed.

The more Li Yu listened, the more he felt that this person's voice was so similar to that person's! He was so absorbed in listening that he forgot to leave.

When Eunuch Liu, who had quietly walked towards the door, saw him, he hurried back to his side and pulled him up! Li Yu was caught off guard and couldn't help but whispered "Ah!"

Li Yu suddenly woke up and realized that something bad had happened! He was so frightened that he didn't know what to do!

Li Yu felt his arm tighten, and someone had grabbed him. Then he heard a cry of surprise:

"Li Yu! You're still alive? That's great! That's great!"

Li Yu looked up suddenly and saw a beautiful face looking at him with surprise, and there seemed to be tears in the eyes!

Li Yu was even more shocked! He couldn't help but shout:

"Ms. Lu! Why is it you?"

That princess was none other than Lu Junlan from the Qiyun Sect!

"It's me! It's me! I thought you..."

Lu Junlan said excitedly, and finally couldn't help but let the tears flow down her eyes!

Yao Lin was surprised to see his usually reserved sister so excited. He immediately asked in confusion:

"Why? You...you know each other?"

In fact, this is almost nonsense! Judging from their expressions, they not only know each other, but also seem to have a special relationship! You know, his sister has always been cold to other men. But she is particularly affectionate to Li Yu, which makes him doubt their relationship!
