Chapter 81: Brainless people just rush forward recklessly
After saying this, the subordinate continued, "When Min Xuan seized power, there was a huge uproar. Only a five or six-year-old young prince remained of the previous emperor's bloodline, living among the common people. It is said that the ministers of Min Xuan's previous dynasty have been searching for that young prince for years."
"Some say that the little prince was killed long ago, but others say that he was sent to our Ming Kingdom some time ago and should have grown up by now."
For some reason, Lu Wanning inexplicably thought of Qin Linche.
She asked, "How old is that young prince now?"
"About twenty-five or twenty-six."
Lu Wanning was silent for a moment and said nothing.
After saying everything she needed to say, the man retreated. Hu Yan stood beside her and was about to ask something when she caught a glimpse of Hong Ling peeking outside. Her eyes flashed and she quickly stepped forward to bring the person over.
Perhaps thinking of the tragic death of Luoluo, Hongling's face turned pale and she dared not say a word.
"What's wrong?"
Hu Yan shouted coldly, "Tell me, what are you doing sneakily?"
Hong Ling knelt on the ground and said, "Your servant, I have something to say to the Crown Prince's wife."
"What happened at the Chen Mansion?"
Hong Ling nodded quickly, "Yes, when I went out shopping yesterday, I ran into a maid who used to be on good terms with me at the Chen Mansion. She told me that Miss Luo from the Prime Minister's Mansion went to the Chen Mansion that day and talked to the Second Miss about a lot of things, which seemed to be related to Aunt An."
Frowning, Lu Wanning sat up straight and looked at Hu Yan, "Is there any news from Madam Liu?"
Hu Yan shook her head. "It should be nothing. Before the prince left, he asked me to pick out two smart ones from the shadow guards and send them to Aunt An. With Madam Liu and the two of them here, I'm sure nothing will go wrong."
Qi Muchao did think more carefully about this point than she did.
But for some reason, Lu Wanning still had a bad feeling in her heart.
In the afternoon, iced mung bean soup was made in the small kitchen. Sang Mingyue had been away for the past few days, and Lu Wanning thought Sang Zhiyu must be a little worried, so she went to Sang Zhiyu with pastries and mung bean soup.
Her guess turned out to be correct. When she arrived, Sang Zhiyu had just finished crying. When she heard that she was coming, she hurriedly wiped away her tears.
But how could one not see those eyes that were as red as a rabbit's?
Seeing him eating the cakes pretending to be nonchalant, Lu Wanning felt a little distressed. "Are you worried about your sister?"
It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but after asking this question, all the strength that Sang Zhiyu pretended to show collapsed in an instant.
His mouth drooped, and he suddenly couldn't hold it in anymore.
Tears fell into the bowl. She wiped them with the back of her hand for a while, but it was no use. She had no choice but to look up at Lu Wanning.
"Sister Lu, I'm a little scared."
After all, he is just a child. He has experienced a lot during this period of time. It is not an exaggeration to say that his family has been broken up.
But he knew that his sister had to bear much more than he did, so he didn't even dare to cry out loud.
Even if I can't help, I can't cause trouble for my sister.
But he couldn't control his fear, afraid that his sister would never come back.
Lu Wanning sighed softly, pulled the man to her side and patted his shoulder, "Knowing that you are still waiting here, nothing will happen to her."
Sang Zhiyu nodded, "But I'm still scared."
Lu Wanning sighed softly, stared at him for a few seconds, and her eyes lit up. "Sister will take you to see the kittens, do you want to go?"
“Yes!”
The kittens have been sent back and settled in Lu Wanning's yard.
The two little guys had just arrived in a strange environment, crawling around on the ground and groping around everywhere.
How could a child resist such temptation? Sang Zhiyu fell in love with her at first sight, "So cute."
He blinked and asked Lu Wanning impatiently, "Can I hug you?"
"Of course, but they are just a full moon and are still very fragile. You have to be careful not to use too much force and don't drop them."
After Sang Zhiyu responded, she carefully went to play with the kitten. Lu Wanning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought that this child was indeed as well-behaved as Princess Qi said. Of course, he was also much more sensitive than ordinary children.
The smile on her face suddenly froze, and Lu Wanning finally knew where her bad premonition came from.
Hu Yan looked at the Crown Princess, who had just smiled very gently, and saw her expression change in an instant. She was suddenly puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"Go to Chen's Mansion!"
How could she forget that the two girls in the Chen Mansion were both stupid. Others were good at scheming and killing people with borrowed knives, but these two were just other people's knives.
Those without brains will just rush forward recklessly.
My aunt is usually not on guard against others. Although Aunt Liu can block those conspiracies and plots for my aunt, no one would think that there is a way to harm others without any tricks and just do it openly.
The more Lu Wanning thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, so she immediately took Hu Yan to Chen's house.
I still have to go and see my aunt in person and arrange these things before I can feel at ease.
The master and servant rushed to Chen's house.
Aunt An is now pregnant and in power. She is also the Crown Prince's consort. When the doorman of the Chen Mansion saw her, he immediately welcomed her in respectfully.
She also kindly reminded him, "Madam An is now admiring the flowers in the garden."
The servant led her to the garden, and from a distance she saw a group of people gathered in a pavilion not far away.
Lu Wanning couldn't help but quicken her pace.
In the pavilion, Mother Liu moved the food box handed to her by the second girl to the side and looked at her with a forced smile.
"My aunt has had a poor appetite these days and can only eat soupy foods. If she eats this cake, she'll probably vomit again later."
The second young lady curled her lips, ignoring Madam Liu's thoughts. She turned to look at Aunt An and said, "I made this cake myself. Even though it may not taste delicious, I really want Aunt An to have a taste. After all, Aunt An is pregnant with our Chen family's child."
"As your elder sister, I have to pay attention to this, right?"
Aunt An's pregnancy wasn't yet apparent, but she subconsciously stroked her belly. Seeing this, she chuckled dryly, "Mother Liu is right. I appreciate Second Miss's kindness, but I really can't afford anything else right now. I hope Second Miss will forgive me."
"If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it," the second girl snorted coldly, the smile on her face instantly disappearing, and she didn't forget to glare at Mama Liu, "You took my kindness for granted."
If it weren't for the fact that this old guy was sent from Prince Qi's Mansion, she would have slapped him now.
Aunt An didn't want to stay with the second girl for too long, so she deliberately covered her chest and whispered, "Mother Liu, I feel a little uncomfortable in my chest. Please help me go back to sleep for a while."
Mother Liu said okay and reached out to help her.
"Auntie."
Aunt An turned around.
The second girl rushed towards her with a ferocious look on her face.
