Chapter 495 What to do?
Concubine Li's words made the emperor stop the pace that he was about to leave the house.
He looked back at her, and asked with a calm expression:
"What were you just talking about?"
Seeing that the emperor was very concerned about this matter, Concubine Li was happy and hurriedly took two steps forward, bowed and replied:
"I said that there are two Chu people living in the Yu palace, and they may also be people from the Chu palace."
"How do you know?"
The emperor looked at Concubine Li with suspicious eyes, frowned and continued to ask:
"What evidence do you have? How do you know that they are from the Chu Palace?"
Seeing the emperor's eyes with suspicion, Concubine Li hurriedly explained:
"When you go back to the emperor, when Madam Lu left the palace a few days ago, she met several officials from the military camp at the tea stall. They said privately that when Yu'er and Lan'er returned to the capital, they brought two people from Chu back.
The identity is extraordinary. One of them is a woman who looks very similar to Princess Yu, and outsiders can't tell the difference, and they stayed in Princes Yu's mansion..."
Concubine Li's words made the emperor look alert and calm. He paced back, sat back on the chair, and asked in a stern manner:
"Is there any evidence you said?"
"Yes, Madam Lu just saw the two Chu people in the backyard. One of them looked exactly the same as Princess Yu, and... And according to Madam Lu's inquiry, their relationship with Duke Guard Liu Dechang is also
Very unusual.”
Hearing this, the emperor's pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyebrows were covered with cold colors.
The Chu people are the filthy people in the country of Daning, and he will not allow a Chu people to stay in Daning.
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and shouted loudly:
"Come on, call Prince Yu."
After Liu Xi received the order, he quickly went to call Leng Yu, while Concubine Li winked at the girl standing not far away. The girl nodded in understanding and quietly retreated.
At this time, Leng Yu and Luo Lan were lying on the bed together, looking at the top of the bed, whispering,
Leng Yu gently stroked Luo Lan's hair and said softly:
"If the emperor hadn't come, I would have had such a leisure time. I could hold my beloved Lan'er and lie on the bed to take a nap, but I always feel a little uneasy and can't sleep?"
"Are you worried about my mother and Xina? Don't worry, I have ordered A Cai and A Hong to take turns to guard the backyard. If there is any movement, we'll make plans early."
"I'm afraid they won't give us time to make plans! No, I'll go and have a look."
As he spoke, he was about to sit up, and Luo Lan hurriedly grabbed him.
"My husband, you said too. It's rare to have a chance to lie down for a while. Don't worry about this matter. I'll go and see it later."
"But……"
"It's nothing, but Mom and Xina don't leave the house, and everyone in our mansion will shut up. There will be no problem, so don't worry."
Of course Leng Yu didn't want any problems. He nodded and lay down again, "Okay, the emperor will take Concubine Li and Concubine Li out of the city to appreciate the lotus flowers. Then you can find a way to place them in a safe place and wait.
It’s okay if the emperor and the others leave. I’m really worried that Concubine Li will come this time, so she has other intentions…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a knock on the door came from him.
"Prince, the emperor uploads you to the past."
This was A Gang's voice. Leng Yu's brows tightened instantly, and Luo Lan also sat up with him alertly.
"My husband, we just came back from the emperor, and now he tells you that you are here again. If you don't sleep at noon, something must be wrong."
Leng Yu was putting on his shoes while instructing:
"Hurry to the backyard and place your mother and Xana. Never be discovered at this time, otherwise you will be implicated, including your father."
After Leng Yu said this, Luo Lan also felt that this was a little bad. She hurriedly got out of bed. After Leng Yu left, she pulled out a coat and headed straight to the backyard.
As soon as she arrived at the backyard, the girl Caidie came over.
"Princess, I just heard in the front yard that Concubine Li and the emperor said, "There are two Chu people living in our mansion. What should you do if you think about this?"
Caidie's words made Luo Lan's expression nervous instantly. She frowned and waved her hand.
"I understand. Now go to the corridor and see if the emperor and the others are coming here. Remember to inform us at any time."
After Caidie received the order, she quickly walked towards the corridor, and Luo Lan rushed to the room of Xina and Xiaoling.
As soon as she entered the backyard, A Cai and A Hong came over together. A Hong blinked her eyes a few times and whispered:
"Princess, over there... is the people in the palace. It seems to be the people around Concubine Li. They are staring at the room of the wife and the second lady. What should I do?"
Luo Lan looked along Ah Hong's gaze and saw two people standing under the eaves not far away, and her eyes swept towards the room where Xina and her mother were from time to time.
Her eyes, like a waterfall, had a sharp eagle-like gaze, and then she whispered to A Cai and A Hong:
"You guys are staring here, I'll go see my mother and Xana..."
After saying this, she raised her foot and walked towards the room where Xana and her mother were.
Although they were in two rooms, they only walked through one main entrance. To be more precise, they lived in the same suite so that they could talk to each other in their spare time and avoid boredom.
When Leng Yu hurried to the main hall, he saw the emperor sitting there with an ugly expression on his face, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed:
"Father, what's the point of asking your son to come?"
The emperor's face turned pale, his mouth trembled, and he asked angrily:
"I heard that there are two Chu people living in your Prince Yu's mansion? Is there such a thing?"
As soon as he said this, Leng Yu's heart twitched.
It seems that he guessed right, and his father knew about Xina and Xina's mother.
He hurriedly bowed and held his fists, denying:
"My father's words, I don't understand. How could there be Chu people in the Yu palace? Who are you listening to? Is it that you arranged by Erchen behind your back?"
Seeing that he didn't want to admit this, Concubine Li shone with sinister eyes and snorted gently on the corner of her mouth.
"Arrangement? Yu'er, how could you say this? I told the emperor that I did this for your own good. You are also the general of the country protection of the Daning Kingdom, with only one person and above ten thousand people.
Prince Yu, although the emperor took your position as prince because you made a big mistake, but he did not punish you. Why are you not grateful? You still have to keep Chu people in Prince Yu's Mansion? I just advised the emperor
Don’t be too careful. If you keep the Chu people in the palace, you will definitely not want to join forces with the Chu people. You are just confused for a moment.”
Her pronouncements that seemed kind-hearted were undoubtedly adding insult to injury, and the emperor's face became even colder.
He looked at Leng Yu, clenched his fists, and questioned word by word:
"Are there any Chu people in your Prince Yu's mansion?"
Leng Yu raised his voice without thinking:
"No, there are no Chu people in the Yu palace. Please tell me the truth."
Seeing that he didn't admit it, Concubine Li snorted coldly and bowed to her body and said:
"Your Majesty, since Yu'er refuses to admit it, he must be kept in the dark. He doesn't know about this. Why not do this? I will take you to see it yourself and the truth will be revealed."
After thinking about Concubine Li's proposal, the emperor nodded.
