Chapter 457 Lock Matter



But her shouting had no effect at all; instead, the two fought even more fiercely.

Xiaoling hurried to Luo Lan, stamping her feet and shouting:

"Lan'er, make them stop quickly. What if they hurt Nana?"

Luo Lan looked at the two people helplessly, frowning and shaking his head.

"Looking at her posture, it seems like she is determined to kill Leng Ming. How could she be injured?"

The three little kids were watching the film with great interest, Lele kept shouting,

"Come on, little uncle. Come on, little uncle."

Seeing this, An An put his hands on his hips and shouted:

"Come on, auntie. Come on, auntie."

The two children looked at Huaiyu, and An An asked first:

"Brother, who are you cheering for?"

Seeing this, Lele hurriedly said:

"Brother, little uncle is always so good to us, often bringing us delicious food. Aunt has only been here for two days, and we are not familiar with her yet. You can't be so naive as to tell right from wrong."

Seeing that his younger brothers and sisters left the right to speak to him, Huaiyu frowned, then shook his head and muttered softly,

"I don't want to cheer them on, and I don't want them to fight."

As soon as Huaiyu finished speaking, Leng Ming took a few steps back, raised his finger and wiped the corner of his mouth, then looked at Xina with gritted teeth and said hatefully:

"You little bitch, your kung fu is not bad, but you can't beat me. I don't want to fight you today."

Xina looked at Leng Ming with a red face and snorted disdainfully.

"You clearly can't beat me, so why are you talking so nicely? If you have the guts, come back someday and I'll beat you to a pulp."

"you……"

Just as Leng Ming was about to refute angrily, Luo Lan said in a cold voice with a cold face:

"Stop arguing, now is not the time for you to fight."

Her words made Leng Ming stand still instantly. Xina also quietly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the corner of her mouth. She glared at Leng Ming with narrowed eyes, and then turned her gaze to Luo Lan.

Luo Lan glanced at Leng Ming and said calmly:

"Ming'er, remember what I just told you. Don't tell anyone about my mother and my sister."

After that, she said to Ah Cai:

"Give orders to everyone in the mansion to keep their mouths shut and not to tell anyone about anything that happens in the mansion."

After saying these words, she said to Sina:

"Come with me for a moment. I have a few words to ask you."

Sina turned around, stuck out her nose at Leng Ming, and raised her eyebrows. Leng Ming also raised his fist at her without showing any weakness, making a fighting stance.

Xiaoling looked at Leng Ming and asked:

"Are you Prince Ming?"

Leng Ming watched Luo Lan and Xina leave, then nodded and said:

“That’s right…”

"Since you are Prince Ming, you are also a person of status. How could you lay hands on a girl like Nana? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others if you do this?"

joke?

Leng Ming frowned and glanced at Xiaoling. He wanted to argue with her, but considering that she was his elder after all, he couldn't confront her like he did with Sina.

He had no choice but to change the subject and waved his hands at the three children:

"Huaiyu, An'an, Lele, come on, uncle will take you fishing."

The three children were doing nothing, but when they heard his words, they immediately came forward and pulled him up, and walked happily together towards the backyard of the palace.

Luo Lan brought Xina to the main hall. As soon as they entered the room, Xina couldn't wait to ask,

"Sister, what happened?"

Luo Lan stood still, looked back at her, and said cautiously:

"Leng Yu angered the Emperor by letting Le Tu and others out of the city without permission, and he was thrown into the Heavenly Prison. During this time, to avoid complications, you and mother must conceal your identities. Otherwise, if someone reports this to the Emperor, we won't be able to explain ourselves."

She had heard from the eunuch who came to deliver the oral order that Leng Yu was thrown into the Sky Prison, but now looking at Luo Lan's expression, she guessed that this might not be a good thing.

After thinking for a while, Sina said worriedly:

"What should we do? My brother-in-law was thrown into the Heavenly Prison by the Emperor because of Letu. We have to save him. Otherwise, I will go and bring Letu and the others back and let him lead people to rescue him from the Heavenly Prison."

"Nonsense."

Luo Lan frowned and looked at Xina. "You seem to be quite smart usually, so why are you so panicked when you encounter problems? I'm here, why are you so anxious? Just do as I tell you. I'll find a way to deal with everything."

Although Xina was very worried about Leng Yu, she pursed her lips and nodded, "Oh, I see."

Luo Lan looked at Sina again and asked suspiciously:

"You've been to Prince Xi's Mansion before. I want to know what the relationship is between Concubine Li, Li Tianyang, and Leng Xi?"

Seeing her mention this, Sina frowned and thought for a while, then said with a serious face:

"I'm not quite sure about their relationship. They usually speak in a tone that's hard to understand. Li Tianyang and Concubine Li always meet privately, behind everyone's back. But I'm sure that the Chu people moved into Prince Xi's mansion with the consent of Leng Xi and Concubine Li, and Concubine Li wanted to use the Chu people to help Leng Xi ascend to the throne..."

"Is Concubine Li a Chu?"

Sina shook her head and replied sadly:

"I don't know. She has neither admitted nor denied it. She and Li Tianyang seem to have known each other for a long time. She is very cautious and prudent. I have only met her once. I was wearing a veil at the time, so she didn't see my face."

Sina's words made Luo Lan feel more and more that there was something wrong with Concubine Li's identity, but she still had to slowly investigate what the problem was.

On the third day after Leng Yu was imprisoned in the Sky Prison, the Twins and the others came to Luo Lan and clasped their fists in unison, saying:

"Princess, when the prince was brutally murdered a few years ago, we didn't intervene, causing him to be bedridden for years. We deeply regret this. Now, we can no longer bear to watch him suffer in the prison. We have decided to collectively go before the emperor to plead for him. If that doesn't work, we brothers will risk our lives to rescue him. At worst, we can leave the capital and you brothers can find somewhere else to live. Wouldn't that be more carefree?"

Hearing this, Luo Lan frowned, then raised his voice and said seriously:

"Back then, the prince was confined to his house because you knelt for a long time at the gate of the Qianqing Palace and refused to get up. Someone with ulterior motives gossiped about you in front of the emperor, which led to your exile to the frontier. Don't you know this lesson? Do you still want to go down the same path again? Do you think you are saving the prince by doing this? You are harming him..."

After hearing her say this, the twins and others who were just filled with indignation lowered their heads.

Zhang Yuan muttered in a low voice:

"We are at our wit's end. The Emperor is so foolish that he locked the prince up without asking any questions. It's been three days now, and he hasn't been released, nor has he been given an explanation. We simply can't stand it any longer."
