After saying this, she looked down at Leng Ming and comforted him softly:

"But this is a traumatic injury. The wound is deep. You have to rest in bed for half a month and don't do strenuous exercise for three months."

Leng Ming pursed his lips, flashed his weak eyes, nodded and said softly:

"Sister-in-law, thank you for saving me. From now on you will not only be my master, but also my savior."

Hearing this, Luo Lan frowned in embarrassment, pulled a wry smile from the corner of his mouth, and muttered in a low voice,

"If you're joking, why take it seriously? I'm just your royal sister-in-law. If you have any questions, you can ask me at any time. As for the bet, it doesn't count."

"That won't work."

When Leng Ming heard this, he was obviously a little excited, maybe because he used too much force, and immediately made an "ouch" sound in his mouth, and then said with a grin:

"How can the words you said not count? As long as the emperor's sister-in-law doesn't dislike her, I, Leng Ming, will definitely recognize her as my teacher and learn from her such skills as chess, poetry, calligraphy and painting."

Leng Xi, who was standing aside, saw this and took the opportunity to step forward and comfort him:

"Ming'er, don't worry. What the Queen's Wife said will be true. When you recover from your injury, we will accept her as our teacher. She won't disagree, right?"

Leng Yu took two steps forward and lifted Leng Xi's collar, pulling him behind him. Then he lowered his eyebrows and said to Leng Ming:

"Don't worry, Ming'er. This matter can be discussed later. Now you have to take good care of yourself. Father was here yesterday."

"he came?"

Obviously, Ming'er was a little surprised when he heard this. He looked at Leng Yu with disbelief and asked again:

"You said, my father came to see me?"

"right."

Leng Yu frowned. He knew better than anyone else that in the eyes of his father, power was above all else. To him, his children were just dispensable accessories in life, just like how he treated his two daughters.

, it is the same as ruthlessly marrying to a foreign country without asking any questions.

But this time he was able to see Ming'er in person, which surprised him. He nodded heavily, "Here I am. I heard you were injured and I was very worried."

After receiving a positive answer, Leng Ming suddenly pulled his pale lips into a wry smile and murmured:

"This surprised me. He never seemed to care about me since I was a child."

After saying this, he suddenly changed the subject and asked:

"Where is my mother-in-law? Does she know that I am injured? Is she anxious?"

Leng Xi, who already knew everything about the situation in the palace, pursed his lips, sighed and nodded,

"I know, she was imprisoned by the emperor because she let you out of the palace without permission, causing you injury. Later, my mother-in-law went to the emperor to beg for mercy, and her confinement was lifted."

Hearing this, Leng Ming was obviously a little excited. He forced his body to think of it, but Luo Lan pressed him down.

"Don't move, your wound is very deep and needs to be taken care of."

"But...but I want to explain this to the emperor. In fact...it was not my mother and concubine who asked me to leave the palace. It was me...I left the palace on my own. My mother and concubine didn't know about it."

As soon as he said these words, Leng Yu was a little surprised, Luo Lan looked at him with confusion, Leng Xi opened his mouth directly, and asked a little excitedly,

"You...how can you lie? You...didn't you say that your mother-in-law agreed to your leaving the palace? You...you have violated the palace rules, do you know?"

"So what? I am already fourteen years old. In the past fourteen years, I have rarely stepped out of the palace. I am tired of the life in the palace. I always hope that I can reach the time of sealing the palace and leaving the palace as soon as possible.

, but that’s too slow.”

Seeing his sad look, Leng Yu's brows trembled slightly, a contemptuous laugh emerged from the corner of his mouth, and then he said in a cold voice:

"I never thought that your mother-in-law would bear this responsibility for you."

"Why does fourth brother speak so lively?"

Ming'er looked at him with puzzled eyes and said:

"She is also your mother-in-law."

"Ah!"

Leng Yu sneered from the bottom of his heart. How ironic was it for him to laugh at the mother-in-law?

Luo Lan saw that Leng Yu's face was not very good, so he interrupted them and said seriously:

"Don't think about this now. I think since Concubine Chang has already taken the punishment for Ming'er, it's better for Ming'er not to tell the truth, otherwise the emperor will definitely punish you."

"no."

Leng Ming's face was a little pale and ugly, perhaps because he stretched too hard and the wound hurt.

He bit his lip and said again:

"My mother and concubine cannot shoulder the responsibility for the mistakes I have made. I want to return to the palace and explain this matter to my father."

"You can't move."

Luo Lan stepped forward and held him down, and said angrily with a stern expression:

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, so why are you so anxious? Besides, your mother-in-law has already been punished because of you. If you admit it again, wouldn't it be a waste of all her hard work?"

Leng Xi pursed his lips and then echoed,

"The imperial sister-in-law is right, your mother-in-law's confinement has been lifted. Although the father has taken away her position as the head of the harem, it is still a light punishment. Don't admit it anymore, otherwise you will be blinded in vain.

The mother-in-law's heart is gone."

Although Leng Xi and Luo Lan tried their best to persuade, Leng Ming shook his head vigorously unmoved, gritted his teeth with firm eyes and said:

"It was my fault. Why should my mother-in-law take the responsibility for me? No matter whether she is punished for this matter or not, I will clarify this matter to my father. Please stop trying to persuade me."

Seeing Leng Ming's firm attitude, Leng Yu's eyes darkened, and he raised his hands to Leng Xi and Luo Lan:

"It's a good thing that Ming'er has this idea. It proves that he has grown up. Don't try to persuade him anymore, otherwise this matter will become a burden on his heart."

After saying that, he came to Leng Ming, looked at him condescendingly, and muttered:

"Ming'er, take good care of yourself. The emperor will come to pick you up in three days. It won't be too late to tell you then."

Ming'er looked at Leng Yu, nodded heavily, and replied with a serious expression:

"Fourth brother, I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"

Leng Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's not your fault, take care of yourself."

After saying that, he stood up straight, glanced at Luo Lan, and whispered to her:

"Madam, I have some things to deal with. Ming'er will leave it to you."

With these words behind him, he turned around and left here.

Ming'er did cause a lot of trouble for herself this time, but she didn't blame him. He was the one who took the arrow for her, and it was Leng Yu who the assassin wanted to kill.

…

The news that Leng Ming had woken up reached the palace. The emperor, who was drinking tea and chatting with Concubine Li in Liyuan, was surprised at first when he heard Liu Xilai calling the time, and then frowned and asked,

"Is this true?"

Liu Xi hurriedly bowed and replied:

"The letter from Prince Yu's Mansion is true."

The emperor's brows suddenly became a little more joyful. After he waved his hand, Liu Xi retreated. Then he took a sip of tea and said happily to Concubine Li who was smiling with a smile on her face:

"My beloved concubine, did you hear that? Ming'er is fine. This Princess Yu is really capable."

When he mentioned Princess Yu, he suddenly frowned and continued:
