Luo Lan smiled and glanced behind him, then opened the door and raised his eyebrows at Sina.
"A woman's brain will indeed become less effective in front of a man, and she may even become like a three-year-old child."
Her words puzzled Sina. Seeing that she was lost in thought, Luo Lan took her hand and pulled her out the door, closing it while shushing her:
"They haven't seen each other for twenty years. They must have a lot to talk about. Let's not disturb them."
After saying this, she whispered to the two soldiers guarding the door:
"Stay here and don't let anyone disturb them."
After the two soldiers nodded in agreement, she said to Sina:
"Mom just woke up and hasn't recovered yet. I'll go find your brother-in-law and see if we can set off later."
Sina had a faint smile on her lips, then nodded heavily.
"Okay, go ahead! I'll take a look around here too."
After greeting each other, the two sisters walked in two different directions.
As expected, Leng Yu agreed to Luo Lan's idea of staying here for a day and setting off the next day.
After all, she was his mother-in-law, so how could he not be flexible? Besides, he also understood the feeling of not seeing each other for twenty years. He simply took Luo Lan's hand and whispered softly, "I'm your mother-in-law."
"My lady, let's take this opportunity to rest. It's a rare day to have some free time. Let's take a walk around here! It will be difficult to get out once we return to the capital."
What he said was not without reason. He was the crown prince of Daning Kingdom and the future heir to the throne. After he returned this time, the emperor would not allow him to leave the capital at will.
Luo Lan placed her hand in his palm and nodded with a smile on her face.
"No matter where I am, I will never feel bored as long as I am with you and the children."
Leng Yu took her hand. Although there was a smile on his face, there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
The current situation in the capital is still unknown. Although he had already asked Xiao Lingzi, Zhang Yuan, A Yu and A Hou to take a small group of people back to the capital, he was still worried.
He had roughly known it the last time Zhang Yuan came. This time, the Chu people were able to sneak into the capital and turn the capital upside down, which had a lot to do with Leng Xi, so when he returned this time, he wanted to investigate the matter carefully.
Thinking of Leng Xi, he felt somewhat sad. After all, he was his brother, and they had had a good relationship since childhood. He didn't know when he had changed and became unrecognizable to him.
Thinking of this, he sighed deeply. Feeling that he was a little disappointed, Luo Lan hurriedly asked softly:
"My husband, what are you thinking about?"
While they were talking, they had already reached the edge of the woods. Looking at the new buds emerging from the branches, Leng Yu slowly said:
“I was wondering, if this incident is really related to Lengxi, what should I do?”
When this question was mentioned, Luo Lan stopped and looked at him seriously, reminding him carefully,
"My husband, this matter is definitely related to Leng Xi, but I think we should go back and see what the Chu people have done in the capital during this period, or what Leng Xi has done in this matter, and then make a decision. He is your brother after all, and he is not a bad person. He may have been blinded by power and certain external factors. We should be more tolerant of him!"
When mentioning Leng Xi, the first person she thought of was An An. After all, he was An An's biological father. Although Long Xiaomin asked her not to tell Leng Xi about An An's life experience before her death, she still didn't want Leng Xi to get into trouble, even though he had done many excessive things in recent years.
Listening to her words, Leng Yu's heart burned with irritable anger. He sighed and complained with hatred and anger:
"It's all because of this supreme throne, but what can we do? I'm already riding a tiger and can't let it go. If Leng Xi insists on fighting for the throne, turning against each other may be the inevitable path for us brothers."
Luo Lan held his hand tightly, looked at the tall pine tree in front of him, and murmured to himself,
"People are born with many frustrations. If that day really comes, turning against each other is inevitable. I just hope it doesn't end in death or injury."
She knew that Leng Yu must have suffered a lot during the five years he was away. The reason why the emperor asked him to lead the battle personally was to test his resilience.
Before the current emperor ascended the throne, the previous emperor also asked him to lead troops to fight. This seems to be something that must be done before the new emperor ascends the throne.
She could only pray silently in her heart, hoping that when Leng Yuzhen ascended the throne, his personality would not change drastically, and he would not hurt his brothers for fear that the throne would be threatened.
Leng Yu held her hand and walked in the dense pine forest. He felt a lot of emotions in his heart, but he felt he had no way to express them.
They walked hand in hand for a long, long time, so long that they didn't know how far they were from the tent.
"Husband, let's go back. It's almost noon. The twins will be worried if they can't find us."
After she reminded him, Leng Yu finally looked back. After realizing that they had walked a long way, he frowned and nodded.
"Let's go back. I've walked so far without realizing it."
At this moment, there was a rustling sound, and he suddenly saw a black shadow flash before his eyes. He hurriedly held Luo Lan in his arms and looked around vigilantly.
Feeling something strange, Luo Lan frowned and looked behind a tree, then raised his hand and shushed.
"Husband, over there..."
As she spoke, she was about to step forward, but Leng Yu hurriedly held her back, shook his head at her, and signaled her not to move.
Luo Lan took out the silver needle in his hand, blinked at him cunningly, then aimed at the big tree and threw the silver needle out.
Perhaps because there were too many obstacles around, her silver needle did not hit the dark shadow hiding behind the tree. Just as she was about to take a few steps forward, suddenly, there was a sound of breaking branches, and then a huge wild boar appeared in front of her.
"ah!"
The moment she saw the wild boar, she screamed unconsciously. The two fangs on the pig's mouth made her scalp tingle and her hair stand on end.
She retreated in fear, and was almost tripped by the branches behind her because she was too scared. Fortunately, Leng Yu supported her in time.
"My lady, be careful."
As he said this, he stared at the wild boar with a pair of sharp eyes, and promptly pulled Luo Lan behind him, then drew a short knife from his waist.
"Lean back, I'll handle it."
Luo Lan shuddered and whispered in his ear:
"My dear husband, be careful. Wild boars are very aggressive. It will be difficult for you to get close to them with your short knife."
"It's okay. We've seen all kinds of wild animals while marching outside. Don't worry!"
After saying this, he half bent down and stared at the wild boar with his eyes.
