The few of them spent nearly half a cup of tea explaining things, and they even arranged for Leng Yan where to stay on the way.
Finally, the meal was served and the few people stopped talking. After the meal, the princes and princesses wanted to continue to pester Leng Yan, but they took a step before they were stopped by the Ming Emperor. The Ming Emperor said to them, "Come and play chess with me. Let Yan'er stay with your mother for a while."
After hearing this, although they were reluctant, they still followed the Emperor to the study. When they passed by Qin Du, the Emperor also called Qin Du to go with them.
Seeing this, Leng Yan said, "Junior brother..." Qin Du looked at Leng Yan with some confusion and said, "What's wrong, Senior Sister?" The others also looked at Leng Yan.
Leng Yan glanced at Qin Du and finally shook her head and said, "It's okay, go ahead!" Although Qin Du was a little confused after hearing this, he nodded and followed.
After Qin Du left, Leng Yan was also dragged by the Queen to the Queen's bedroom. The Queen kept telling Leng Yan about what had happened in the past few years since she left the capital, and Leng Yan listened carefully.
At this time, Qin Du on the other side was a little confused after being hit by the chessboard by the third prince. Although he was not injured, he was still a little confused after being hit for no reason.
The third prince put the chessboard back to its original place, glanced at Qin Du, and said indifferently: "Sorry, I'm just not very skilled." There was no apology in his tone.
Qin Du shook his head hesitantly and said, "Nothing." He finally understood why his senior sister had hesitated to speak just now.
He looked around again and saw that the second princess wanted to lift the chessboard but was held down by the eldest princess. The second princess blushed but still did not lift the chessboard. At this moment, the eldest princess asked again: "Second sister, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?"
The second princess glanced at the eldest princess Leng Qingyan, whose eyes were filled with undisguised murderous intent. Then Leng Pianran picked up the chessboard on Qin Du's table and threw it at Leng Qingyan, but was stopped by her.
Then the two men started fighting. Qin Du, who was innocently implicated, was a little confused, but the third prince Leng Qingjue, who was sitting opposite him, looked indifferent, obviously he had seen this kind of scene many times.
In the end, the chess game in the study turned into a fight between several people. The palace servants outside the study immediately walked away from the study after hearing the noise inside.
At this time, the queen was sitting on the couch holding Leng Yan's hand. She was talking to Leng Yan while arranging for someone to serve tea.
The palace maid who served tea walked into the hall with her head lowered. She heard another pleasant voice inside. Then she remembered that the palace maids in Lengyan Palace said that Lengyan was more beautiful than a fairy. She couldn't help but feel curious about what Lengyan looked like. So she quietly raised her head to look at Lengyan.
At the same time, I reminded myself to just take a look and then look away after that.
Thinking of this, she looked up at Leng Yan. She was stunned at first sight, and her cheeks quickly flushed.
But the next second she fell to the ground because she was not careful, and the sound of porcelain breaking was extremely obvious in the hall.
The maid's face turned pale as she came to her senses. She immediately knelt on the ground and banged her head heavily on the floor. Her body trembled uncontrollably as she said, "Please spare me, Queen. I didn't mean to do that."
There was a flash of annoyance in the queen's eyes, but because Leng Yan was there, she couldn't say anything, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, you can go out." As soon as these words came out, the palace maid kowtowed several times on the ground as if she had been pardoned, and then quickly got up and left.
As soon as she left, another palace maid came in and cleaned up the broken porcelain pieces on the floor, and then another palace maid brought in tea.
After chatting with the queen for a while, Leng Yan left the queen's Juhua Palace and returned to her own bedroom.
The next day, Leng Yan was busy with what he was going to do next, so he didn't know what the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the others were doing.
It was not until the evening when the Queen brought palace maids to deliver clothes and accessories to Leng Yan that Leng Yan learned that a palace banquet would be held in the palace the next day. Ministers of higher ranks could bring their families to this banquet.
As soon as these words were spoken, the officials could more or less see the intentions of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Leng Yan felt it was a little sudden but didn't say anything. After having someone put the things away, she chatted with the queen for a while before leaving.
After the Queen left, Leng Yan called out Cen He and said in a calm tone without any emotion, "Send someone to leak some information to the Prime Minister's Mansion to make this fire burn even more fiercely."
Cen He took the order and left. Not long after Cen He left, another palace maid came in. The palace maid lowered her head and did not dare to look at Leng Yan's overly beautiful face.
She handed an envelope in her hand to Leng Yan and said, "Princess, here is your letter." Leng Yan took it and put it aside and said lightly, "I understand, you can go down." The palace maid bowed and walked out of the bedroom.
Leng Yan rubbed her brows after finishing the book in her hand, picked up the envelope beside her and opened it. As soon as she opened the envelope, Leng Yan smelled a faint scent of peach blossoms. This smell was so familiar that Leng Yan instantly knew who wrote the letter.
In just a moment, Leng Yan lost interest in reading the contents. In the five years since she left the sect, as long as she had a stable place to stay, she would receive a letter from Wen Shi on the same day. Leng Yan would read it at first, but after she found that Wen Shi's letters were all about insignificant things, she stopped reading them.
In addition, later on, Wen Shi wrote a love poem to her, but Leng Yan burned it without even looking at it.
But later on, Wen Shi seemed to know about it, and the stationery he used to write letters was made of his spiritual energy. This made Leng Yan completely helpless against him.
Finally, Leng Yan took out the letter and unfolded it. Written in red cinnabar, she saw the following words: "Exquisite dice with red beans, my deep longing for you, do you know?"
After reading it, Leng Yan crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it aside. His expression remained calm from beginning to end without a single fluctuation.
In the evening, when Qin Du came to look for Leng Yan, he accidentally saw a piece of paper beside him. Leng Yan saw that he had been looking at the paper ball and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
Qin Du withdrew his gaze and shook his head, saying, "Nothing." But he clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves.
Wen Shi, it's Wen Shi and the others again, why don't they just die? Although he thought so in his heart, his face remained calm.
Seeing this, Leng Yan said no more. The two were silent for a long time before Leng Yan finally spoke: "You will stay in the capital for a while and then return to the sect." It was time to understand the matter between her and Wen Shi.
After hearing this, Qin Du looked at Leng Yan and opened his mouth to say something, but seeing Leng Yan's indifferent expression, he still responded with "Okay." He no longer remembered when Qin Du left. He just felt that he had been thinking about returning to the sect and was a little absent-minded.
Why do you want to return to the sect?
After Qin Du left, Leng Yan put down the brush in her hand, stood up and left the bedroom, then disappeared into the night.
A piece of paper on the desk in her bedroom was blown to the ground by the wind.
