What is Lengxi doing here?
She frowned and said to Xiao Lingzi and Fang Qiu:
"You guys go down first!"
Fang Qiu was eager to slip away. She bowed to Luo Lan, turned around, and walked away with big strides.
Xiao Lingzi stood where he was and said directly:
"Princess, I'd better stay here."
Luo Lan knew that he was worried that Leng Xi would harm him, but she still smiled and shook her head.
"No need. This is Prince Yu's mansion. No one dares to do anything wrong. Go and get busy first."
After saying this, she turned to An An and Huai Yu:
"Go find Lele. Your grandfather has found a new teacher for you. You must learn from him."
Huaiyu nodded somewhat self-consciously and asked timidly:
"But that teacher was found by Grandpa Huang for Lele. Will he be able to teach us?"
Hearing him ask this, Luo Lan raised her hand and pinched the tip of his nose, then chuckled and said:
"He's the teacher your grandfather found for all of you, not just Lele. Besides, Minister Wu is a very good teacher. He will teach you well, so go ahead and rest assured!"
Huaiyu then took An An's hand doubtfully and walked out of the main hall together.
After a while, Leng Xi brought Xiaobao to Luo Lan. Luo Lan didn't have much good feelings for this child, but she was such a grown-up, how could she argue with a child?
So, she looked at Xiaobao and asked in confusion:
"What does Prince Xi mean?"
Leng Xi replied with a cold face and a fist:
"This is the emperor's order. He wants Xiaobao and the three children from Prince Yu's mansion to become students of Minister Wu, so that they can study together in the future."
this……
She didn't seem to have received this order.
By the way, before Minister Wu came, he said that the emperor’s oral order would arrive later. Is that possible?
While she was thinking about this, Liu Xi came to her in small steps. He swung the whisk in his hand and shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Princess Yu received the Emperor's instructions."
Although Luo Lan was a little slow to react, he still stood up from his seat, knelt down, and waited quietly for Liu Xi to speak.
"The Emperor has ordained that, in order for the royal children to be well-educated and talented, and to bring honor to their ancestors in the future, he has specially ordered the last top scholar, Wu Shangshu of the Shangshu Mansion, to give lectures to the children. From now on, Leng Tengfei, Leng Tengyue, Leng Tengda, and Leng Anping will all become Wu's disciples."
After saying this, Liu Xi looked at Luo Lan again and continued:
"The Emperor also said that he would find a martial arts master for the young masters and young ladies in a few days. He is still considering the specific candidate, and I will come to convey his order when the time comes."
After saying this, he bowed and said, "I, the old servant, will take my leave."
He took two steps back like a gust of wind, and then walked out of the main hall of Prince Yu's Mansion with a group of eunuchs.
Seeing him walk away, Luo Lan stood up from the ground. Leng Xi came to her again and said softly:
"Xiaobao has a stomachache, so he only studies in Prince Yu's Mansion and won't eat a single bite of food there. I'll ask the servant to accompany him, and it won't cause you much trouble."
Just this morning, when Leng Xi was thinking about how to approach An An, the emperor's oral order came. He suddenly had an idea. Why not take this opportunity to get close to the little girl and find out what she had said to Luo Lan?
So he accepted the emperor's order that Xiaobao come to Prince Yu's mansion to study, and personally sent him there.
In response to his words, Luo Lan replied with a cold expression:
"Since this is the Emperor's order, Prince Xi, please do as you please. But you'd better tell your child to mind his own mouth. Otherwise, if there are other children of the same age together, I can't guarantee that anyone will give in to him if he speaks like that."
It was obvious that Luo Lan was warning him that the three children of Prince Yu's Mansion were not easy to mess with, and he should not accuse them of bullying the weak with their numbers.
Xiaobao raised his head and replied without fear:
"Xiaobao is just a child who can't lie. Why should he keep his mouth shut? Princess Yu, please don't scare the child."
His words made Luo Lan feel both amused and helpless. She shook her head helplessly and then said to A Cai:
"Take them to the backyard."
Leng Xi let go of Xiao Bao's hand, straightened his collar, patted his shoulder, and comforted him:
"Xiaobao, Ah Fu will be your follower from now on. If you have any problems, just let him help you solve them. Remember what your father just said to you on the road. Don't provoke others, and don't say things that are irrelevant and hurtful to others. Understand?"
Xiaobao pursed his lips, nodded, and followed Ah Fu away.
Seeing him leave, Leng Xi turned back to Luo Lan and said:
"By the way, have you found any clues about Huaiyu and An'an's disappearance?"
"Not yet, but I'll definitely find out."
Luo Lan replied straightforwardly, but Leng Xi felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
But he immediately calmed down and nodded with a serious face, "Well, I heard that Huaiyu and An'an were rescued that night. Perhaps it would be easier to investigate if we start with the person who rescued him?"
Yes, he was testing her on purpose. He wanted to know if An An had exposed him.
Leng Xi's sudden concern about this matter made Luo Lan even more curious.
A trace of emotion flashed across her eyes, and then she chuckled and replied:
"Well, I will check it out. Prince Xi, don't worry about it. Once I have some clues, I will report it to the emperor. I believe he will make the decision for the two children."
In fact, Luo Lan said it unintentionally. She just didn't want Leng Xi to be too involved in this matter, because she didn't think Leng Xi would care about things related to Prince Yu's Mansion now.
