He asked this question again. Leng Yu and others standing outside the door looked inside through the gap in the screen, but saw nothing.
Luo Lan smiled softly, she glanced back at everyone, then held her chin with one hand and said seriously:
"Since the truth is known to you all, I won't hide it anymore. I'm hungry. You two can decide who will let me eat first. I promise I won't hurt you."
Hearing this, the little twins who loved to laugh were stunned for a moment, then raised their hands to scratch their heads, laughing.
"Princess, you're such a jokester! Are you hungry? Tell Ah Cai to get you something to eat."
"Yeah, I'm hungry. I want to eat people."
Luo Lan raised her eyebrows proudly, her crystal eyes kept flashing, and her long eyelashes looked particularly slender under the sunlight. Thinking of Leng Zian's words, she suddenly wanted to laugh.
At this moment, a heart-wrenching howl came from the house.
"My son, is it really you? Are you really not dead? My son, my son."
Hearing this, everyone present looked at each other in surprise. Although Leng Yu knew that Lan'er had her reasons for doing so, he was still stunned when he heard Leng Zian's call.
He became more and more convinced that his wife Shui Luolan was the reincarnation of the immortal. She could make people disappear, bring them back to life, and even bring the dying back to life.
Leng Zian lay on Xiao Zhi, feeling his even breathing, and cried like a little child.
"Xiaozhi, are you really not dead? Can you please wake up and talk to Daddy? Dad thought you were murdered by them. I thought we would never have the chance to continue our father-son relationship in this life."
At this point, he suddenly grabbed Xiaozhi's hand and put it to his mouth, whispering softly with tears in his eyes,
"Xiaozhi, am I dreaming? Am I dead too? Speak up, call me dad, let me hear you, Xiaozhi, my son..."
Just when he was stunned and couldn't believe the facts before his eyes, a faint voice sounded in his ears.
"father……"
He suddenly stopped holding Xiaozhi's hand, and froze in place, looking up at Xiaozhi blankly. When he saw Xiaozhi's eyes were opening weakly, he suddenly shouted,
"Xiaozhi, are you awake? Are you really awake? Can you call me daddy?"
His crazy shout surprised Luo Lan who was standing outside. She first looked at Leng Yu in surprise, then quickly stepped over the threshold and ran towards the inner room.
When she came to the bedside, Xiao Zhi had already opened his eyes. The moment he saw Luo Lan, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and he said in a weak voice:
"Sister...sister, thank...thank you."
Hearing him speak, Luo Lan's eyes turned red. She nodded with a sob, then cried with joy in panic, shaking her head vigorously.
"No need to thank me, I'm glad that Xiaozhi is awake. I'll be relieved when he wakes up."
Leng Yu and others who followed her in saw this scene and finally showed a long-lost smile on their faces.
At this moment, Leng Zian, who was half-kneeling beside the bed, suddenly stood up. He looked at Luo Lan with serious eyes. Before anyone could react, his knees suddenly went weak and he fell to his knees with a plop.
His action really surprised Luo Lan. She hurriedly took a few steps back and asked in surprise:
"What are you doing?"
Leng Yu also stepped forward to help him at this time, "Uncle, you can't do this." But he raised his hand to block her.
After he pulled Leng Yu away, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself three times in the face. Luo Lan was so scared that he covered his mouth and took several steps back. Leng Yu looked at him in shock. Everyone present was stunned.
After three slaps, he choked and said:
"I, Leng Zi'an, was foolish enough to believe in slanderous words, which nearly led to a disaster. Although you are my niece-in-law, you deserve this kneeling from me. I, Leng Zi'an, owe you my life."
After leaving these words, he stood up again. When he turned to look at Xiaozhi, someone suddenly came to report from outside.
"My Lord, something happened."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhang Yuan running in with a serious expression. Leng Yu hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yuan swallowed hard, glanced at Leng Zian, and then said with a heavy breath:
"Tens of thousands of elite soldiers have arrived in Yunnan City and are now at the gates. They're clamoring to see... to see the Prince of Zhennan, and are about to attack."
Hearing this, Leng Yu frowned immediately. Leng Zian said to himself, "Not good!" and quickly turned around and said to Xiao Zhi:
"Son, take a good rest here. I'll come back to accompany you later."
After leaving these words, he rushed out of the door quickly. Leng Yu and others saw him and followed closely behind.
Here, only Luo Lan, A Cai, A Hong and a few other women were left. Although Luo Lan was a little worried about the King of Yunnan sending troops to the capital, she also knew that it was a man's business and she didn't need to worry too much.
So, she sat beside Xiaozhi's bed, looked at him tenderly, and said softly:
"Xiaozhi, you finally woke up. I'm so happy to hear you calling me sister."
Xiao Zhi's lips were a little pale. He chuckled weakly, then asked with a worried look on his face:
"I just heard that soldiers from Yunnan have arrived. What's going on?"
Hearing him ask this, Luo Lan sighed, pursed his lips, and said softly:
"You were going to know this sooner or later anyway, so I might as well tell you now. During the few days you were recuperating, your father, the Prince of Zhennan, suspected that the Emperor was deliberately trying to hurt you. So he went before the Emperor with a sword to avenge you and sent a distress signal to the Prince of Yunnan's Palace. Fortunately, you woke up, otherwise, this war would have been inevitable."
