"Your Highness, I came to Xuanzhao because I am originally from Xuanzhao. I was originally a maid of the general's wife. After being framed by Chu Wantang, I was afraid of being blamed by His Majesty the Emperor, so I thought of a way to get away and came to Xuanzhao." Lu Jinan hesitated and half-spit out.
The man raised his eyelids, slowly turned the jade ring on his thumb, and glanced at Lu Jinan with a cold gaze, "You want to find a way to get away, why let others think that your "death" is related to me?"
Lu Jinan couldn't help but grab his sleeve, "Your Highness, this is a misunderstanding."
Xuan Yanyu sneered, his voice lowered, "I heard that you have a daughter. Where is your daughter now?"
Lu Jinan closed his eyes and shook his body while kneeling on the ground. "Your Highness, you know everything, don't you?"
The fact that he asked this question meant that he had guessed everything that happened back then.
It was no use for her to lie any more.
"Why did you disguise Ningning as your daughter and send her to Qi Lan?" Xuan Yanyu twisted the teacup with a cold and tired look on his face.
So the emperor also guessed that Lu Jinan’s “daughter” was not Lu Jinan’s daughter, but General Yu’s daughter.
It's just that the emperor was looking for Yan Shiyao, who had the royal jade pendant, instead of Ning Ning from his maternal grandparents' family.
Ye Chen had a look of surprise on his face, his mind was confused, and he didn't understand what they were saying at all.
"Your Highness, there is no general, your wife is ill, and the concubine from the past is of no avail. If Little Lemon marries you and goes to the Xuan Palace, your wife is afraid that she will be bullied because she has no support from her family." Lu Jinan expressed her guess.
Apart from this, she couldn't think of anything else.
"Your Highness, you also know what will happen to a woman in the Xuan Palace who is not favored by the Xuan King and has no support from her family. Madam is doing this for Little Lemon's good."
The man suddenly smiled and said, "So, you used fake death to make me and Ning Ning quarrel?"
"Yes." When meeting those dark and obscure eyes, Lu Jinan's scalp tingled and a chill ran up his back.
"Get up." Xuan Yanyu brushed his sleeves and stood up.
Yu Zhi supported Lu Jinan and stood up nervously.
Xuan Yanyu glanced at Xiao Cheng, whose lips were purple on the bed, and kindly suggested, "Should we find a doctor for the general?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My husband has been like this often these days. He will wake up soon." Yu Zhi smiled.
The man raised his eyebrows and walked out.
"Your Highness, when can you...when can you bring the Crown Princess to the Grand Marshal's Mansion, or can I go to the Crown Prince's Mansion?" Yu Zhi nervously held Lu Jinan's hand.
"It depends on the Crown Princess's opinion. I'll ask her first and then let Ye Chen inform you." The man walked out of the room without even turning his head.
It depends on Yan Yuning's opinion. Lu Jinan was completely relieved that no one would take over Yan Yuning's position.
——
Outside the mansion.
Yan Shiyao stood in front of Xuan Yanyu and said with misty eyes, "Your Highness, I want to see Ningning."
When she met Ningning, she talked to Ningning about her marriage with Qi Qingchen. As for agreeing to Qi Qingchen's request to Ningning to let Xuan Yanyu release him and Qi Lan, she would talk about it later.
"Miss Yan, the Crown Princess has been kept in the palace by Queen Xuan. Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't see her, let alone you." Ye An said to Yan Shiyao with a smile before Xuan Yanyu got angry.
Yan Shiyao ignored his words, looked up at Xuan Yanyu, and begged softly, "Your Highness, please."
Xuan Yanyu frowned and said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Yan Shiyao shuddered. What kind of attitude was that? She had begged him so humbly, and it was not enough for him to see his own sister? ?
Seeing Xuan Yanyu's obvious impatience, Ye An smiled and said, "Miss Yan, you will meet the Crown Princess in two days."
