Leng Xi suddenly looked up and said in a cold voice:
"I have nothing to be dissatisfied with. Father is doing this for my own good. Lord Yu is an important official in the court, and Yu Qiaoqiao is a rare and talented woman. It is my honor to marry such a woman."
Although he spoke casually, Luo Lan still felt that something was wrong. However, he did not say it explicitly, so they gave up their plan to comfort him before coming. After a few pleasantries, they left Prince Xi's Mansion.
Sitting in the carriage, Luo Lan said with her beautiful eyes flashing in confusion:
"What happened to Lengxi? He seems to have suddenly become a different person."
Leng Yu shook her head, not understanding. "I don't know. He doesn't want to tell us the truth, and we can't force him. I just hope he can live a good life with Yu Qiaoqiao."
"There should be no reason for him not to live a good life with Yu Qiaoqiao. Yu Qiaoqiao is beautiful, a virtuous and generous lady from a noble family. Any man who gets a woman like her will cherish her."
Leng Yu raised his handsome eyes to look at her, shaking his head in confusion. "I don't know. I always feel that Xi'er has become very different from before. It seems that he doesn't really want to marry Yu Qiaoqiao. As for where he has changed, I can't tell."
Luo Lan also had this feeling, but he couldn't explain why.
In the afternoon, Luo Lan took Acai and Ahong, got on his own carriage, and headed straight to the Prince's Mansion.
She needed to change Xiaoyu's dressing, give her an anti-inflammatory injection, and tell her some precautions.
But when they arrived at the back door of the Prince's Mansion, the door was closed, there was no sign of Nanny Fang, and no servants coming in or out.
Ah Cai went to the door to take a look, then came back and said:
"Princess, it's strange, there's no one here. Should I go knock on the door?"
"Go!"
The time agreed with Nanny Fang was almost up, why didn’t Nanny Fang come out to greet them?
After receiving the order, Ah Cai knocked on the door. After a while, the back door opened and a girl came out. She looked at Ah Cai and asked in a cold voice:
"What's up?"
"Excuse me, is Aunt Fang here?"
“No.”
"Where did she go?"
"Back home."
The girl's words made Ah Cai look puzzled. "She was here yesterday, why did she suddenly go back to her hometown today? And where is Miss Yu? We can look for her."
"Dead."
After the girl said this, she rolled her eyes at her and slammed the door shut.
Ah Cai was stunned for a moment, then trotted to the front of the carriage and said with a heavy breath:
"Princess, maybe... maybe something happened. That girl said Miss Yu died and that Nanny Fang went back to her hometown."
Hearing this, Luo Lan's brows tightened immediately, and she said to Ah Hong:
"Would you like to go and find out?"
Ah Hong nodded, jumped off the carriage and walked towards the door.
When she knocked on the door, the girl who had just come out said impatiently:
"What on earth do you want to do?"
Before she finished speaking, Ah Hong raised a silver ingot in front of her, her eyes flashing, and said disdainfully:
"Little sister, is it convenient for me to ask you something?"
When the little girl saw the silver ingot, she immediately walked out of the door in ecstasy, and then nodded continuously, "Convenient, convenient."
Ah Hong then stuffed the silver ingot into her hand and pulled her to the carriage. "The people are here. Do you have anything to ask?"
The little girl didn't know who was in the carriage, so she bowed and said:
"Please tell me what you want to ask. I don't have much time and can't stay outside for too long."
Through the curtain of the sedan chair, Luo Lan asked directly:
"Where are Miss Yu and Aunt Fang?"
"Madame Fang has returned to her hometown. Miss Yu died. She was carried out last night."
"Where did you carry it to?"
"have no idea."
"Where's the child?"
"The child is dead too."
impossible……
Luo Lan's brows were suddenly twisted into a knot. She clenched her fists and asked again:
"Did something happen in the Prince's Mansion?"
"There's good news in the Crown Prince's Mansion. Last night, the Crown Princess gave birth to a son. The good news has been passed to the palace, but there's been no reply yet."
Wu Linlin also gave birth? What a coincidence!
Luo Lan said to Ah Hong:
"let's go!"
Ah Hong nodded, pulled the little girl to her side, and reminded her with a cold face:
"If you dare to tell anyone about what I asked you today, your life will be in danger."
The little girl nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, young lady, I won't tell anyone. I'll go back first."
Leaving these words behind, the little girl ran into the back door like a flash. After Ah Hong got into the carriage, the carriage started slowly.
Luo Lan sat there pale, his back leaning against the car wall, not saying a word. The baby was born without any problems, so how could he die overnight? This didn't make sense!
Ah Hong asked in a low voice:
"Princess, is it true that something happened to Xiaoyu?"
Luo Lan's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she said coldly with complicated thoughts:
"To the mass grave."
"Princess, how could you go to a place like that? Besides, she wasn't necessarily thrown into a mass grave."
"Do as I say."
Luo Lan suddenly had a bad feeling. This Xiaoyu might be like that bundle of cloth. The valuable things inside were taken out, leaving only a skin bag, which was ruthlessly discarded.
After giving a few instructions to the coachman outside, Ah Hong returned to the carriage. Luo Lan was still sitting there with a pale face. Xiaoyu's pale face and the appearance of the little baby kept flashing before her eyes.
It took them about half an hour to reach the mass graves in the west of the city. Ah Cai shrank her neck and muttered softly,
