Chapter 138: Walking into a Trap



Ah Hong hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted her teeth and said:

"She...she went to Qingyu Garden."

Hearing these three words, Concubine Chang's face suddenly turned pale. She opened her eyes, swallowed her saliva, and asked in a stern voice:

"What was she doing there?"

Seeing that Concubine Chang was asking anxiously, Ah Hong deliberately delayed, then lowered her voice and said timidly:

"The princess said that someone was suspicious of her identity and she had to find someone to help her, otherwise... otherwise she couldn't explain herself clearly. So, she made an appointment to meet someone at Qingyu Garden."

"Who are you meeting?"

Concubine Chang narrowed her eyes and stared at Ahong impatiently. She couldn't think of who Shui Luolan would meet in this palace, so she bit her lip and waited for her to speak.

Ah Hong raised her sleeves and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She mumbled and dared not speak, then shook her head vigorously.

"This servant...this servant dares not to say, and cannot say."

Seeing that she seemed very scared, Concubine Chang's interest was instantly piqued. She sat up straight as if she was about to hear some huge secret, looked at Ah Hong, and shouted in a stern voice, word by word:

"What you dare not say must be no small matter. Now that you have said it, I may be able to help her. If you don't say it, it will only hurt her. As her personal servant, you must know the importance of it!"

Seeing Ah Hong hesitating, Ah Cai nudged her with her elbow and said anxiously:

"Don't hide it, just tell me now, or else if something happens to the princess, you'll be in big trouble."

Ah Cai's words seemed to move Ah Hong. She swallowed her saliva, closed her eyes tightly, and then opened them with all her strength as if she had made a big decision. She lowered her head and said to Concubine Chang:

"She...she met with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Qingyu Pavilion. She told me not to tell anyone. Your Majesty, please don't say it was me who told you. Otherwise...otherwise, the Princess will punish me."

Hearing this, Concubine Chang's mouth curled up slightly. This news made her more excited than getting any treasure, but she was still trying her best to suppress her excitement.

This news was like a huge bombshell: Princess Yu was meeting with the Crown Prince, and when a woman met with a man, something was bound to happen. If these two were caught in the act in the palace, it would be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. At the same time, she could get rid of the two people she hated the most, saving her a lot of trouble!

Thinking of this, she frowned slightly and asked in a worried tone:

"Did she tell His Royal Highness what she wanted to do? This is no small matter. You need to think it through before you speak."

Ah Hong pursed her lips and whispered:

"I don't know what she did specifically, but...but Princess Yu dressed up carefully before coming. She also said...she said that the Crown Prince has always had feelings for her, and she couldn't...couldn't reject the Crown Prince's kindness."

Listening to her words, Concubine Chang frowned slowly. This was a great thing for her, and she couldn't miss this good opportunity.

Thinking of this, she waved to the palace maids guarding the door.

"Take them down!"

Hearing this, Ah Hong asked hurriedly:

"Your Majesty, you must help the princess!"

Concubine Chang raised her eyebrows with a smug look on her face as she twitched the corner of her mouth.

"Of course I will help, and I will do my best to help."

After saying this, she winked at Nanny Yu, who nodded in understanding and followed her out the door.

Concubine Chang was a little excited. As soon as she walked out of the main hall of Dening Palace, she couldn't wait to wave her hands and said:

"God is really helping me. It seems that God wants to help me."

Yu Ma Ma hurriedly echoed:

"Your Majesty is right. If you could really catch these two people doing something indecent, the Emperor would definitely be furious."

This sentence instantly cleared Concubine Chang's mind. She suddenly stood still, frowned and whispered:

"You are right. This is no small matter. I cannot go alone, or I will be criticized. It is better for the Emperor to go in person."

Yu Mama asked in confusion:

"What does the Queen mean?"

"Go find the Emperor..."

Leaving these words behind, she strode towards the Yangxin Palace.

Qingyu Pavilion

In the dim light, Luo Lan fiddled with the handkerchief in her hand, which had the words "Luo Lan" embroidered on it. She always carried this handkerchief with her, but rarely took it out to use. She felt that this handkerchief must be related to her life experience, so she had to keep it well. However, when she was helpless, she always wanted to take it out and look at it. This handkerchief made her feel safe.

At this moment, a burst of light footsteps sounded. She hurriedly put the handkerchief into her arms, straightened her expression, sat down at the round table, and looked quietly at the door with her handsome eyes.

After a while, the door creaked open. Through the dim light, Luo Lan knew that it must be the Dog Prince who came.

Sure enough, the moment the door was closed, the voice of the dog prince came.

"Luo Lan, I'm here, are you there?"

Luo Lan's mouth twitched, she stood up and walked outside the hall, folded her arms and looked at Leng Yun who was bending over to enter, pursed her lips and said disdainfully:

"Why is Your Highness so cautious? Are you scared?"

Leng Yun saw the woman he had been thinking about day and night standing in front of him. He rubbed his hands vigorously and shook his head.

"No, I have nothing to fear. The only person in this world that scares me is you, Luo Lan. I'm both afraid of and in love with you."

After saying this, he actually rushed towards her. Luo Lan pricked up her ears and listened quietly to the movement outside. Seeing that it was quiet outside, she pursed her lips and said leisurely:
