Chapter 672 I’m attracted to you
"Ji Xuan was only the first step of my plan. It's a pity that I failed to poison him to death. The blue snake leaf is extremely poisonous, and there is no antidote. If it weren't for the people from the Divine Doctor Valley, Ji Xuan would have died for sure!"
When Ye Yuren mentioned that the people from the Divine Doctor Valley had saved Ji Xuan and ruined his plan, his tone was calm, but there was a cold chill in his eyes.
Ye Yuren thought of something, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Hanyang: "Do you know the origin of the Lantuo Snake Leaf?"
Lu Hanyang frowned slightly. Isn’t this a poisonous flower from the Western Regions?
"Lantuo Snake Leaf comes from the Western Regions. It is usually used for viewing and is non-toxic. However, it cannot be eaten, and it cannot be placed together with Seven Star Begonia. These two flowers together will produce a poisonous gas, and smelling it for a long time will cause poisoning."
"Back then, a small country in the Western Regions paid tribute to this flower, and the late emperor gave it to the most favored Ye Guijun at the time, who is also my uncle."
At this point, Ye Yuren glanced at Lu Hanyang, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Why do you think the empress ordered you to close the case?"
"Back then, my cousin was a man of great talent and military skills, and had made great military achievements. She was the favorite daughter of the late emperor. If she hadn't been framed, how could she have died tragically? And how could my Ye family be falsely accused of treason and have the entire family be executed!"
"And all this is thanks to the current empress. Back then, my cousin was deeply loved by the late emperor. Many ministers in the court supported my cousin, and the late emperor seemed to intend to make my cousin the crown prince. This naturally made the second princess at the time very angry. She was afraid that my cousin would sit on the throne, so she schemed against my cousin and falsely accused the Ye family of collaborating with the enemy."
Later, the previous emperor died suddenly. Some people suspected that it was the empress who was responsible, but there was no evidence.
The empress ascended the throne as she wished. In order to eliminate dissidents, she took action secretly and pinned some trumped-up charges on the ministers in the court. Those old party forces were killed or disabled, and many people who knew the truth were gone.
The court underwent a major reshuffle. The empress placed her confidants in the court, and those senior officials whom she could not move were forced to temporarily stay out of the spotlight.
"Lord Lu is a good official. The reason why he reminded you not to get to the bottom of it is because he is afraid of arousing the suspicion of the empress and bringing about a fatal disaster."
"You know, the Empress is very suspicious. If she knew you knew her secret, do you think you would still be able to survive?"
"So, you plotted against me?"
Lu Hanyang’s cold voice sounded.
It was obvious that he had realized the strange behavior of Jue Ge when he led him to the alley and took him away.
Ye Yuren tilted his head, looking innocent, and curled his lips: "Master Lu guessed it so quickly?"
“Yes, I did deliberately lure you here and told you some false things. I also learned that the Empress had planted spies around you. I knew that she was worried about you, so I used a trick to let the Empress’s people see you and me, who is suspected to be a remnant of the Ye family, together... What do you think the Empress would think?” Lu Hanyang’s face sank.
What would the Empress think?
He knows so many secrets of the empress, will the empress let him go?
From his demotion and his experiences along the way, it was enough to see the empress's plan.
I'm afraid that at this moment, he is just a dead man in the eyes of the world?
but……
Lu Hanyang glanced at Ye Yuren and asked, "Why did you save me?"
Shouldn't he be an enemy to him?
After all, he is the Empress's man, and he has been keeping an eye on him and hindering his plans.
Hearing this, Ye Yuren put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyes, stared straight at Lu Hanyang, with a smile on his face.
"I'm attracted to you."
An astonishing statement!
Lu Hanyang was stunned, as if a little surprised, and then his face turned dark.
"Why...are you surprised?"
Seeing Lu Hanyang like this, Ye Yuren's heart sank, but he quickly regained his usual calmness and said to Lu Hanyang with a smile.
"Just kidding, don't be so nervous."
"For the sake of revenge, I couldn't relax for even a moment these years. Now that the dust has settled, it's time for me to plan for myself."
"I want to travel around the world in my lifetime, but... I still need a companion. I like Lord Lu, so how about we travel around the world together?"
Hearing this, Lu Hanyang paused and frowned slightly: "Do I have the right to refuse?"
Ye Yuren raised the corner of his mouth but did not respond.
