Chapter 330 The person blocking the road

On the eighth day of the fourth month, the emperor left the palace and went to Taimiao to pray for the people. This was a convention formed by the Daning Kingdom, and the route was also arranged in advance by Leng Yu according to previous years' rules.

As the royal daughter-in-law, Luo Lan naturally had to travel with her. In addition to Leng Yu, there were Leng Xi, Leng Ming, and ministers with some status in the court.

Among the princes, only Crown Prince Leng Yun and Crown Princess Wu Linlin were not listed, and no one dared to mention it before the emperor.

After the emperor's dragon chariot left the palace, he followed Longsheng Street and headed straight to Taimiao.

At this time, the people who had already heard the news were surrounding the streets, waiting for the emperor to arrive. This is a rare opportunity to see the emperor's face in a year, so the people naturally don't want to miss it.

After a while, the bustling crowd calmed down. A row of soldiers holding long swords hurried over and built a wall of people, blocking these people behind.

At the same time, the general of the country protection of the Daning Kingdom, Leng Yu, who is the highest-ranking regent in the court today, wore a dark green gown and a serious expression, riding on a tall horse slowly from the intersection of the street. Behind him, a team of people wearing gorgeous clothes, walked slowly around the emperor's dragon chariot. Later, there were several carriages, one of which was riding in Luo Lan.

Luo Lan, wearing a blue and white long skirt, sat in the carriage with a serious look on her face. Sometimes she lifted the curtain door and looked out, sometimes she frowned and closed her eyes and thought about something.

After a while, she opened the curtain door and asked softly.

"Ah Hong, where have you been?"

Ah Hong looked forward and replied in a low voice:

"It's almost time to the gate of Wangxiang Tower."

Luo Lan frowned and said slowly with a solemn expression:

"Let's go ahead and take a look! Come back and tell me any time if there is any movement."

"Yes, the princess." Ah Hong took the order and walked forward.

The people secretly looked up and looked at Leng Yu, who was riding on the horse with a serious face, Leng Xi, who was calm and Leng Ming, who was a little excited, looked around from time to time.

At this moment, the crowd was restless in front of him. Suddenly, a woman with disheveled hair emerged from somewhere. She broke through the soldiers' blockade and fell directly in front of everyone, crying loudly:

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for the people's women, the people's women are wronged."

Seeing this scene, Leng Yu waved his hand with a cold face. After seeing his gesture, the moving team stopped directly. He rode a horse to the woman and let the horse circle in the same place. He asked with a stern face:

"Since you know that the person in the dragon chariot is the emperor, you still dare to clamor here. It's so bold."

The unkempt woman kneeling in front of the person was Xiaoyu who had previously lived in Prince Yu's mansion.

She looked at Leng Yu with a pale face and looked at him in horror, and cried loudly:

"The civilian woman wants to see the emperor, but the civilian woman is wronged. I ask the emperor to take charge of the civilian woman."

"Hmph! The emperor is busy with all kinds of troubles. If you have any wickedness, go to Shuntian Mansion to beat the drum, Lord Yu..."

As soon as Leng Yu's voice fell, Yu Shiming, who was wearing official uniform, quickly walked to the person and said sternly to Xiaoyu who was kneeling on the ground:

"A bold private woman dares to stop the emperor in the street. If you have any injustice, you can go to Shuntian Prefecture to beat the drum and make injustice. I will naturally make the decision for you."

Xiaoyu looked at Yu Shiming and shook her head vigorously, "I can't control my affairs, Shuntian Mansion, only the emperor can control it. Please let me meet the emperor!"

"Hmph! There is no matter in the capital that I can't control. You, a civilian woman, really don't know how high the world is."

Hearing this, Xiaoyu looked up at Yu Shiming, gritted her teeth word by word:

"What I want to say is related to the prince. Can Shuntian Mansion manage it?"

Hearing this, Yu Shiming was stunned for a moment. He looked up at Leng Yu and asked angrily with a pale face.

"Crown Prince? Do you recognize the crown prince?"

"I not only recognize the prince, but also know very well, so I beg you all to let me meet the emperor. Only the emperor can make the decision for the people's women!"

Although the emperor, who was sitting in the dragon chariot, was a little unhappy when he heard this, he could only say to Liu Xi outside in front of the people:

"Call people here."

Liu Xi responded and jogged over and said softly to Leng Yu:

"Prince Yu, the emperor asked her to come over and ask."

Leng Yu's eyes flashed for a moment, and then he whispered to Xiaoyu:

"The emperor asked you to come over and beside the emperor, don't talk nonsense, be careful to hit the emperor."

Xiaoyu nodded, and hurriedly got up from the ground, followed Liu Xi directly to the emperor's dragon chariot, without saying anything, fell to the ground again and began to cry.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for the people's wife and let the prince return my child to me."

Xiaoyu's words made the emperor's originally calm face suddenly covered with clouds. He directly lifted the curtain of the dragon chariot, looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, and shouted loudly:

"What did you say?"

Xiaoyu gritted her teeth and said word by word:

"The civilian woman said... Please save my son. My son is in the prince's mansion and was rejected by the prince as if he had already."

Her words were like a bolt from the blue, which made the emperor stunned.

His eyes blinked a few times, and then said to Liu Xi:

"Take this woman back to the palace, I have something to ask."

Since this matter was related to Leng Yun, he could not say it in front of so many people, so as not to say anything inappropriate and hurt the royal face.

At this time, Leng Yu came to the emperor and whispered:

"Father, my son-in-law thinks that since this matter is related to the prince, it is better to go directly to the prince's house to confront him, so as not to make a fuss about this woman and falsely accusing the prince."

Listening to Leng Yu's words, the emperor pondered for a while, then nodded.

"Okay, take this woman to Taimiao first, let me ask you what's going on, and then make a decision."

After saying this, he put down the dragon chariot's curtain again. Although he tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest, he still clenched his fists tightly at the moment of putting down the curtain, and gritted his teeth in anger.

He is a father who knows Leng Yun's temperament better than anyone else. He is not a generous person, and he is also extremely desolate. He did not abolish his position as a prince in the past because of the status of the Wu father and son. Now the Wu father and son have disappeared. He is preparing to find a reason to abolish the prince for the future of the Daning Kingdom.

However, this woman's words gave him a bad premonition. A few days ago, the prince's mansion had just given birth to a baby boy. Although he didn't show anything, he was still a little happy. After all, he was a grandson.

But who would have thought that a woman who identified the child would appear now, and she didn’t know if this woman’s child had anything to do with the child born to Wu Linlin.

Thinking of this, the emperor closed his eyes slightly and sighed helplessly.

The team of men started the road again under Leng Yu's leadership, and Xiaoyu was led together on the road.

Ah Hong came to Luo Lan's horse again and replied softly:

"Princess, everything is under control."

Luo Lan nodded, and a little worried became more apart from her eyebrows.

Although the Taimiao is a distance from the imperial palace, it is also in the capital, so in less than half an hour, the group arrived at the Taimiao.

According to the rules of the palace, the emperor took Leng Yu and others to sing incense in the temple before calling Xiaoyu to the backyard of Taimiao, where there was a yard specially prepared for the emperor.

The emperor sat upright, and Leng Yu, Leng Xi, Leng Ming, Luo Lan, Liu Dechang and Yu Shiming in turn. The rest were all waiting outside.

Looking at Xiaoyu kneeling on the ground, the emperor asked coldly,
Chapter completed!
