Lele's shrewd eyes flickered a few times, and then he said solemnly:
"Grandpa Emperor, Lele wants an imperial decree of pardon. Please, considering the truce between Daning and Chu, lift the ban on the Chu people and restore the status of Madam Liu Dechang and his second daughter."
"this……"
Upon hearing this request, the emperor's face suddenly turned cold. Seeing this, Lele said loudly again:
"Grandpa Emperor, Lele knows you're angry at the Chu people's brutality, but the Chu people have been beaten to a pulp by my father, and they've fled back to Chu from Daning with their tails between their legs. It's time for you to vent your anger. As far as Lele knows, Madam Liu and the second Miss Liu are members of the Chu royal family. If you can agree to restore their Daning status, it means you've successfully won over two members of the Chu royal family. If foreigners knew about this, wouldn't even these members of the Chu royal family be willing to be your subjects? They wouldn't be a little afraid of you."
Lele's words made the emperor's eyes flicker a few times. Seeing that the emperor was somewhat moved, Lele continued to persuade him:
"When you gave Lele this jade pendant, you said that you would agree to whatever Lele asked for. Lele believes that you are a good emperor who keeps his word. You will definitely agree to Lele's request. Lele will go back and tell her brothers and sisters that our emperor is the best emperor in the world. Not only do you keep your word, you are also a wise ruler."
"Hahaha……"
Lele's little mouth finally made the emperor wave his hands with a smile.
"Your little mouth is really not like your father's, but more like your mother's. You are setting a trap for me and asking me to fall into it."
"Le Le dare not. Le Le is just telling the truth. You are indeed a good official who cares about his subjects. I believe that General Liu will be more loyal to you because of this."
Lele's words made the emperor fall into deep thought. He was right. If he did not agree to Liu Dechang this time, he would definitely be dissatisfied. His position in the hearts of the soldiers of Daning State could not be underestimated.
Even a child understands this truth, so what is there for an adult like him to be obsessed with?
Thinking of this, he waved to Liu Xi,
"Liu Xi, draft an imperial decree and announce it to the world, restoring the status of Madam Liu Dechang and his second daughter as citizens of Daning, and lifting the ban on the people of Chu."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xi blinked at Lele and bowed and replied:
"I will draft the decree right away."
Lele kowtowed repeatedly with joy,
"Thank you, Grandpa Emperor, for your kindness. You are truly the best Grandpa Emperor in the world."
"Hahaha! Then you have to repay me, so play a few more games with me!"
"Le Le obeys your order. When you are free in the future, Le Le will come to accompany Grandpa Huang often."
As he spoke, he got up from the ground, sat down opposite the emperor again, and continued to play chess with him.
It was not until dark that Lele came out of the Yangxin Palace. At this time, Luo Lan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing around outside the Yangxin Palace.
Seeing him come out, Luo Lan hurried over to greet him.
"Le Le, come home with mom quickly. It's getting late. Your dad and the others must be waiting anxiously."
Lele looked back at Eunuch Liu, crossed his arms, and asked in a haughty manner:
"Why are you in such a hurry to go home? Don't you want to ask me if I succeeded?"
Luo Lan looked at Lele who was trying to hold back her laughter, and looked at Liu Xi in disbelief.
"Eunuch Liu, this..."
Liu Xi held up the imperial edict in his hand, smiled and nodded,
"Let's go back to Prince Yu's Mansion to receive the order."
Hearing this, Luo Lan couldn't believe her ears. She looked at Lele again and asked in surprise:
"Lele, did you really do it?"
Lele half-closed his eyes and nodded excitedly.
"Mother, the Emperor has issued an edict to restore the status of Grandma and my aunt."
Oh my god!
Luo Lan couldn't believe it, she felt like she must be dreaming.
She bent down, held Lele in her arms, and happily spun around three times. "Lele, you are such a good son to me. You are such a lucky star to me."
"Mom, please stop spinning. Lele is dizzy."
Liu Xi also smiled and said:
"Yes, please don't turn around. After I announce the decree, I have to come back to serve the emperor."
After being reminded by the two of them, Luo Lan put Lele on the ground and hurriedly said to Ah Cai and Ah Hong:
"Quick, go back to Prince Yu's Mansion."
Acai and Ahong nodded excitedly, took big strides, and followed Luo Lan and Lele out of the palace.
At this time, the atmosphere in Prince Yu's Mansion was a bit depressing. Everyone sat in the main hall, not saying a word. Sighs came out of Liu Dechang's mouth from time to time.
Sina's face looked a little ugly. Leng Ming sat beside her, looking at her from time to time, but his heart was so anxious that it was about to burst.
Originally, he wanted to go to the palace to ask his father for help, but was stopped by Luo Lan. Everyone knew that Leng Ming's words had no effect in front of the emperor. It would be in vain for him to go, and it might even make the situation worse.
Leng Yu's dark face turned somewhat gloomy. He was angry at the Emperor's inflexibility and ruthlessness.
Xiaoling was secretly wiping her tears. If Luo Lan couldn't convince the emperor, then they would really have to leave here. Although Liu Dechang had said that he would be with them through life and death, she didn't want that kind of ending.
Liu Dechang was breathing heavily and clenching his fists in his sleeves, as if he would rebel if the emperor did not respond.
Just when everyone was worried, Agang's voice came in.
"My Lord, my Lord, the princess is back."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions became nervous, and Leng Yu even asked directly:
