Today's entry into the palace was more formal. The three children rode in a carriage, Luo Lan rode in another, Leng Yu rode a horse, and the rest of the servants followed behind.
When they arrived at the palace gate, they had to dismount and move forward according to the rules. Several children jumped off the carriage. Luo Lan yawned, lifted the curtain door, and got off the carriage with the help of Ahong.
At this time, the sun had risen from the east, and the palace gate was extremely lively.
Many officials and their families were waiting here early. Before Prince Yu entered the palace, these ministers could not enter the palace. They were just afraid of being late and impolite, so they came before dawn.
Seeing Leng Yu walking over holding Luo Lan's hand, all the ministers and their families hurried over to greet them and saluted them. Leng Yu nodded to each of them and prepared to enter the palace.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd, and someone murmured,
"Why is Prince Xi here? Isn't he under house arrest?"
"Yes, you see, Prince Xi is dressed very formally, and he brought Princess Xi and the young master with him. He doesn't look like he's under house arrest. It's obvious that he's here to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet."
"Did the Emperor release him from his confinement?"
"I don't know. I haven't heard that the emperor has issued an imperial decree."
“…”
Just as everyone was talking, Leng Xi dismounted, then walked to the carriage, opened the curtain, and Yu Qiaoqiao came out of the carriage. He hurriedly reached out to help her, and Yu Qiaoqiao did not refuse, but let him help her with an indifferent expression.
He turned around and picked up Xiaobao from the carriage. When strangers saw this heartwarming scene, they thought they had a very good relationship.
He brought Yu Qiaoqiao and Xiaobao, and under the astonished gaze of the crowd, he came directly in front of Leng Yu, clasped his hands together, bowed and said:
"Good morning, Fourth Brother, Good morning, Fourth Sister-in-law."
Leng Yu looked at him with puzzled eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Leng Xi's lips curled slightly, and then he took out an imperial edict from his sleeve and held it in front of Leng Yu.
"My father issued an imperial decree to me yesterday, asking me to bring my wife and children to the palace to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with him and everyone else. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion, and I should go to the palace to accompany him. This is the imperial decree, please review it, Fourth Brother."
Leng Yu frowned, took the imperial edict, spread it out and took a look. The content was basically the same as what Leng Xi said.
He didn't expect that his father would issue the imperial decree of pardon to Leng Xi two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, compared with before, Leng Xi had changed, and Concubine Li must have listened to his father's words. He was not surprised at all that his father could forgive him.
He rolled up the imperial edict, handed it to Leng Xi, and nodded slightly.
"It's good that you're here, please come in!"
"Fourth brother, please."
Just as the two of them were chatting and preparing to enter the palace, another commotion was heard. It turned out that Leng Ming came on horseback, with only two guards by his side. This scene was much worse than Leng Xi's.
Ever since An An's incident, Leng Yu was extremely disappointed with Leng Ming. He also tactfully did not go to Prince Yu's Mansion for a long time.
But he is his brother after all. No matter what, as his brother, he should not give him the cold shoulder.
So he nodded to Leng Ming who was walking towards him. Just as Leng Ming was about to step forward to greet him, Luo Xue's clear, flute-like voice came.
"Sister, you're here so early. Huaiyu, An'an, Lele, you're here too."
"Good morning, auntie."
Several children greeted Luo Xue in unison, and Luo Lan also looked at her with a smile.
"Silly girl, can't you be more steady?"
Luo Xue stuck out her tongue. Liu Dechang and Xiao Ling also came in front of them at this time. Xiao Ling couldn't help but accuse them:
"Girl, what did I tell you before you came? This is your first time in the palace. Even if you are excited, don't act like a wild person."
Luo Xue twitched her nose playfully. When she caught sight of Leng Ming, who was staring at her intently, she immediately turned her face away in embarrassment, took Luo Lan's hand, and said affectionately:
"Sister, let's go in! This is my first time in the palace, and I'm a little excited. I'm a little rude, please don't mind."
Luo Lan, who was standing beside her, also noticed the special look in Leng Ming's eyes when he looked at Luo Xue. On the way to the palace, she whispered, "What are you doing?"
"Xue, are you really not going to consider Leng Ming?"
"Sister, don't talk about this anymore."
"I'm asking you seriously. If you don't consider him, I'll ask the Emperor to find him a marriage. It's time to find a marriage for you, too. You're not young anymore, you can't stay single forever."
"Sister, I don't want to get married. My parents don't have a son, so it's great for me to be by their side and take care of them!"
"You're fine now, but Dad and Mom must be worried sick."
After saying this, she whispered again:
"I think Leng Ming still has feelings for you. Tell me the truth, do you have any feelings for him? If not, break up with him as soon as possible. Don't let him have any thoughts and delay his lifelong event."
"I've already made it clear to him, but he's the one who's been insisting on me. What can I do?"
"you……"
"Oh, sister, don't worry about this. I told him a long time ago that his current state does not meet my standards for looking for a man. What's more, after what happened with An An, he lied and said things that misled a few children. It shows that his character is not very good. I am a little disgusted with him now. I will make it clear to him later and ask him not to have any improper thoughts about me. Now you can rest assured!"
Luo Lan sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"He has feelings for you, but you don't. What a tragic story. I hope he can see things more clearly."
