Dazhi shook his head hurriedly, "I can't stay here anymore. I came here this time because I want to ask you for help with something, sister?"
"Oh? If you have anything to say, just say it directly. There's no need to be so polite with my sister."
"I want to...I want to go to the Prince's Mansion."
Prince's Mansion?
Luo Lan frowned and looked at him, asking in confusion, "Do you want to go find your sister Xiaoyu?"
"right."
Dazhi's face was solemn, and he nodded firmly. "I wonder how Sister Xiaoyu is doing now. I have been thinking about visiting her for a while, but...but I can't get into the Prince's Mansion at all. I think..."
"You don't need to enter the Prince's Mansion."
Luo Lan interrupted him directly and chuckled at him:
"Your sister Xiaoyu is in Prince Yu's mansion."
"Sister Xiaoyu is in Prince Yu's mansion?"
Dazhi stood up from his seat in astonishment and asked excitedly,
"Where is she?"
Luo Lan waved at him, motioning him to sit down. "Don't worry. Since you're here for your sister Xiaoyu, I have to tell you something. I hope you can persuade her this time."
After saying this, she told Dazhi what happened to Xiaoyu. After hearing all this, Dazhi clenched his fists and roared with gritted teeth:
"This is really too much, Leng Yun, I will kill him sooner or later."
"Dazhi, don't be impulsive."
Luo Lan frowned and looked at him. "I mentioned this to you not because I want you to add fuel to the fire of your sister Xiaoyu, but because I want you to persuade her. Your sister Xiaoyu has been crying all day these past few days. I don't know how to persuade her. Besides, her wounds haven't healed yet. How can she cry all day?"
Dazhi pursed his lips, nodded heavily, clasped his fists and saluted:
"Sister, I understand. I'll go and persuade her right away."
Seeing that Dazhi's emotions had calmed down a little, Luo Lan asked Acai to accompany him to the east wing where Xiaoyu was.
Leng Yu returned to Prince Yu's Mansion near dusk. When he saw Luo Lan sitting in the main hall with his head down, he approached and asked with concern:
"Madam, I heard Dazhi is here? Where is he?"
Seeing him come back, Luo Lan shrugged at him and sighed helplessly.
"Dazhi went to see Xiaoyu. I hope he can persuade her!"
Leng Yu sat beside Luo Lan with a frown on his face. He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Then he said with a serious expression:
"On the eighth day of the fourth month, the Emperor will go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to pray for the people. I will arrange the route..."
"What does my husband mean?"
Leng Yu smiled and shook his head, then waved his hand, "I didn't mean anything, I just said it casually. By the way, my wife, do you have my favorite sweet and sour pork ribs tonight? I haven't eaten at home for a few days, and the food outside is really not to my taste."
Although Leng Yu didn't say it directly, Luo Lan already knew what she should do. She half-closed her eyes, tilted her head to look at Leng Yu, raised her eyebrows and said:
"Of course, there are more than that. There are also steamed lion's head and three-piece duck, which are all my husband's favorites."
Leng Yu's mouth corners slightly raised, his fingers slid across the table, holding Luo Lan's hand in his palm, and murmured distressedly:
"My dear, I'm sorry for neglecting you these past few days. Once I've sorted out the affairs of the court and prepared for Xier's wedding ceremony, I'll definitely spend more time with you."
Mentioning Lengxi, Luo Lan asked:
"I've been so busy with Xiaoyu's affairs these days that I forgot to ask if he has set a date for his wedding."
"It's decided. It's on the eighth day of the fifth month. Father will go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to pay homage in April, so we'll postpone their wedding date a little longer. This way, Xi'er will have time to prepare."
"I haven't seen him for several days. How is he doing recently?"
When this question was mentioned, Leng Yu's calm expression suddenly became a little complicated. He frowned and shook his head.
"I can't see anything unusual, but he asked the emperor for permission to participate in court affairs. After the emperor granted permission, he went to court on time every day and occasionally discussed court affairs with other ministers. But I always feel that his eyes are not as clear as before, and he doesn't like to call me Fourth Brother as much as before."
"Why is this happening?"
Luo Lan looked at him with puzzled eyes, "Why did he suddenly change?"
"I don't know either. I can't explain it. Oh, and Ming'er has also requested permission to attend court. I feel like he's suddenly grown up."
Hearing this, Luo Lanqingqian's eyes flickered a few times, and then he said in a deep voice:
"My husband, do you feel that Leng Xi and Leng Ming have changed since the Emperor allowed you to participate in government affairs and appointed you as the Regent?"
Luo Lan's words made Leng Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. He shook his head and sighed:
"It seems that the attraction of this position is too great. Now I am in a dilemma, so I have no choice but to move forward. I just hope that my father will remain in good health!"
Although Leng Yu knew that his ideal was impossible to achieve, he still had this fantasy, because he knew that if his father passed away, he and his brothers would become enemies. Even if he could indulge them, they might not appreciate it.
So, recently he has to worry about this matter and handle state affairs for his father, and he feels overwhelmed.
Dazhi was in a bad mood when he came out of Xiaoyu's room. Sitting at the dining table, Luo Lan couldn't help asking:
"Dazhi, is your sister Xiaoyu in a better mood?"
Dazhi nodded, then looked up at Luo Lan and asked expectantly:
"Sister Xiaoyu said you would help her get revenge? Is that true?"
"Yes."
Luo Lan answered directly and affirmatively, "I will find a way for her, and I will find a way soon, so you must not act impulsively or do anything stupid, otherwise you will not only hurt yourself, but also your sister Xiaoyu and her child."
