Chapter 881 Afraid She'd Run Away

Of course, Concubine Lan was being polite when she said this.

If a child as young as Wanwan lived alone in Qingyun Palace, she would probably be frightened awake in the middle of the night.

"Nowadays, only Empress Lan lives in Yanhe Palace, and your second brother is not here. Why don't you live with Empress Lan first?"

When Lu Xingwan raised her head and looked at Concubine Lan Guifei, she saw that her eyes were shining and full of expectation. In the end, she couldn't bear to reject her and nodded casually.

Anyway, she didn't want to go back to Qingyun Palace.

Firstly, although the people serving in Qingyun Palace are still the same people as before, without her two elder sisters Jinxin and Jinyu, she always feels a little uncomfortable.

Secondly, if she slept alone in that dark room at night, even if she was a cultivator, she would still be a little scared, right?

Anyway, I have always been timid, and my fellow brothers and sisters all know this.

Seeing Concubine Lan like this, Concubine Wen shook her head helplessly.

Now, perhaps because she is no longer bound by the complicated affairs of the harem, Concubine Lan is living more and more freely and carefree, and now she is like a child.

Even if Wanwan wants to live in her own Hanguang Palace today, she would still have to think about it.

Given my status, it would be inappropriate for me to live with the princess.

Concubine Wen has always been like this, always worrying.

As for Concubine Lan, she was naturally delighted to see that Lu Xingwan had agreed to her request. She quickly picked up Lu Xingwan, turned around, held her in her arms, and prepared to walk towards Yanhe Palace.

But after taking two steps, he was stopped by Lu Xingwan.

"Lady Lan, I haven't paid my respects to the Empress Dowager yet!"

Wanwan's words made Concubine Lan freeze in place instantly.

She was so focused on being happy that she forgot about these important matters. Now that His Majesty is seriously ill, she is afraid that she will have to go to see him every night.

Thinking of this, she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, you must pay your respects to the Empress Dowager first."

"Your father is not in good health now, you should go and see him first."

"I guess you came to Qingyun Palace in such a hurry that you didn't even know your father's health."

After saying this, Concubine Lan suddenly realized that she might have said something wrong.

Now that Han Xiyue is following Wanwan, if she wanted Wanwan to know about her father's physical condition, she should have told her long ago.

But if Wanwan doesn't know about it now, it means that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess must have planned this matter together and wanted to hide it from Wanwan.

She quickly covered her mouth.

Lu Xingwan looked at Empress Lan and understood what she was thinking. He smiled at her gently and shook his head.

"Don't be nervous, Queen Lan. The Crown Prince has already informed me, and I have already been to Longsheng Palace."

"Perhaps Empress Lan and Empress Wen should go and see the emperor. I think the emperor will wake up today."

"Really?" Upon hearing Wanwan say this, Concubine Lan widened her eyes, full of disbelief.

To be honest, the Emperor of Great Chu has been in a coma for nearly a month, and even the imperial physician is helpless.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been filial and obedient. He has even sought help from all the miraculous doctors in and outside the capital, but none of them could help.

So during this period of time, she has already accepted the fact that the Crown Prince is in charge of the country. She is even considering whether to let Jin Yu return to the capital as soon as possible to prevent His Majesty from having any accidents.

But of course, this was just her own thought and she didn't dare tell anyone.

If word gets out that she is cursing His Majesty, even if the Crown Prince wants to spare her, others will not miss the opportunity.

But now, Wanwan actually said that His Majesty was about to recover, how could she not be excited!

Concubine Lan still has some feelings for Your Majesty.

But Concubine Lan still seemed to not believe her ears. She once again looked at Wanwan in front of her and asked solemnly, "Wanwan, have you lied to Concubine Lan?"

Although she knew that Lu Xingwan would not lie to her given her personality, this incident was truly too shocking.

Lu Xingwan also knew how Concubine Lan felt, so she smiled and said, "Instead of interrogating me here, Madam Lan, why don't you go to Longsheng Palace and visit my father?"

Then she turned to look in the direction of Concubine Wen and said, "Concubine Wen, please come with us. If the emperor wakes up, he will probably want to see you."

Concubine Lan nodded quickly. What Wanwan said made sense. Instead of interrogating Wanwan here, it would be better for her to go and take a look herself.

"Madam Lan and Madam Wen, please go first. I need to go and pay my respects to the Empress Dowager first."

Now that she was back, she naturally wanted to see the Royal Grandmother. Secondly, she also wanted to know from the Royal Grandmother whether Fourth Senior Brother had asked the questions she wanted to ask.

And, where did the fourth brother go next?

These are naturally what she wants to know.

Only if I know my senior brother's route will I have the chance to find him.

But to be honest, that small fishing village is very suspicious.

Concubine Lan was silent for a moment, and finally decided to leave Wanwan behind and go to Longsheng Palace to visit His Majesty.

"Then you should go to the Queen Mother's Palace first. Be careful on the way."

"When you are done, I will ask the people around me to take you to Yanhe Palace. Empress Lan will be waiting for you in the palace."

When she said this, she was naturally afraid that Lu Xingwan would run away.

Seeing Wanwan nodded, she finally felt relieved. She took Concubine Wen's hand and hurried towards Longsheng Palace.

Before they left, Lu Xingwan took a step forward and held Han Xiyue's hand.

"Sister Han..." Having said this, Lu Xingwan shook his head violently, "No, I should call her sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law, let's go to Longsheng Palace with Queen Lan and the others first!"

"Just leave two maids by my side."

After hearing what Wanwan said, Han Xiyue was about to refuse, but before she could open her mouth, she was interrupted by Wanwan again.

"Sister-in-law, I told you that my father will wake up soon. I think the prince will need help once he wakes up. If I go back, I can help him a little."

"You don't have to worry about me. Although I am younger, I am familiar with this palace. Besides, I am going to the Royal Grandmother's palace, so there won't be any problems."

Han Xiyue didn't say anything, but she was still a little worried.

Although Wanwan looks mature, she is only a three-year-old child after all. How can she feel at ease if she is allowed to walk around the palace by herself with only a few maids around her?

But Lu Xingwan held her hand tightly, his eyes full of determination: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, since I can treat father now, what are you worried about?"

Han Xiyue just looked at Lu Xingwan in front of her like this, but it was not until she saw her like this that she was completely relieved. For some reason, she suddenly felt that she didn't need to worry about Wanwan anymore.
