Nearing evening, Leng Yu came to Huichun Hall for the first time. Luo Lan happened to have just finished packing and was about to go home.
Seeing him come in, she asked in surprise:
"Husband, why are you here?"
Leng Yu looked at her, gently plucked the loose hair from her forehead, and replied with a light smile:
"I'll wait for you and go home with you."
Hearing him say this, Luo Lan blinked cunningly, pinched his chin with one hand, and said mischievously:
"Oh? If you're being too attentive for no reason, you're either a thief or a robber. Tell me, have you done anything wrong?"
Leng Ming's hands pinched her waist a few times and whispered in her ear,
"My wife's upbringing is so strict, how could I dare to do anything wrong? I just heard from Xiao Lingzi that the man in white has been waiting at Prince Yu's mansion all day, so I thought it would be better for me to go back with my wife to take a look..."
When the man in white was mentioned, Luo Lan nodded as if he had suddenly realized something.
"Yes, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about him. Let's go back now. It would seem impolite of us to keep him waiting for so long."
Just as Luo Lan was about to move forward, Leng Yu pulled her back.
"But my lady, don't you think it's a little strange that this person suddenly appeared? We should still be more vigilant."
Luo Lan pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Well, whether it's a teacher or a martial arts teacher, we need to understand the details in detail. Let's go back and take a look!"
"good."
After saying that, Leng Yu took her hand and walked out of Huichun Hall.
When they returned to Prince Yu's Mansion, they were stunned by the scene before them. They saw the four children sitting around the young man in white clothes beside the stone bench in the front yard, seemingly listening to what he was saying seriously.
Seeing the two of them come in, the man in white stood up and saluted respectfully.
"Prince Yu, Princess Yu..."
Leng Yu nodded in return and said:
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long, sir. Please come in."
The man in white nodded and followed Leng Yu towards the main hall.
After they sat down in the main hall, the four children hid at the door and peeked inside secretly. Although Luo Lan and Leng Yu noticed them, they did not expose them. Children are very curious, so this was nothing.
Leng Yu spoke first:
"Excuse me, sir, what is your name?"
The man in white clasped his fists and replied without hesitation:
"My surname is Huang, and my given name is Yun. I come from Liaodong. I've been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since I was a child. I've already taken the academy exam, the provincial exam, and the metropolitan exam, and have successfully advanced with first place. This time, I'm going to the capital to take part in the palace exam in March next year. The reason I want to serve in Prince Yu's mansion is also a coincidence. First, I want to find a place to live in the capital, and second, I want to earn some money to send to my family so that they can live a better life."
Huang Yun's eloquent introduction gave people a very refreshing feeling. Leng Yu nodded directly.
"It seems Mr. Huang is a scholar. Princess Yu said during the day that she wants to serve in our Yu Palace. She has many requirements. Please leave your household registration information first. I will discuss it with the princess later. You can find an inn to stay in first. We will make a decision after the martial arts teacher here is settled."
Huang Yun nodded slightly, stood up and clasped his fists, saying:
"Okay, but I have another request."
"Mr. Huang, please speak..."
"I have no place to stay in the capital. If you two hire me to work in Prince Yu's Mansion, please provide me with a place to stay..."
The request he made was not excessive. There were many vacant rooms in Prince Yu's Mansion, and he didn't need a room as a teacher.
However, Luo Lan and Leng Yu were still unsure of his identity and background, so they naturally couldn't easily agree to let him stay.
"Well, if you are qualified for the position, it's a small matter."
"Thank you, Prince Yu, and thank you, Princess Yu. Huang will take his leave."
Leaving these words behind, Huang Yun waved the folding fan in his hand and walked towards the door with big strides.
The three children who were waiting there saw him come out and surrounded him again, asking him questions non-stop.
"Mr. Huang, when can we see you again?"
"Mr. Huang, we will ask my father and my mother to let you stay."
"Mr. Huang, please tell me another story. Your story is really interesting."
"Mr. Huang..."
These four little kids followed Huang Yun like four little followers, talking about this and that non-stop.
Looking at his leaving back, Luo Lan frowned and said:
"He really does look like a scholar. His voice is so soft, like a girl's..."
Leng Yu took a sip of the tea beside her, put it down, and nodded gently.
"That's great. Don't you dislike rough guys? I think the kids seem to like him too. I'll have Xiao Lingzi look into his background. If there's nothing wrong with him, I think he's a good fit."
Luo Lan also nodded in agreement.
"Well, based on the household registration information he left behind, it's still necessary to check his background. It's always better to be cautious."
For those who are about to enter Prince Yu's Mansion, especially those who will be spending every day with several children, there must not be any mistakes. Leng Yu and Luo Lan have basically the same advice on this point.
Mingwang Mansion
Luo Xue looked at Leng Ming lying on the bed, regretting her reckless behavior and hoping that he would wake up soon.
According to Luo Lan, Leng Ming would probably wake up at night, but it was already dark, why hadn't he woken up yet?
Looking at Leng Ming, who was still pale as he lay on the bed, Luo Xue muttered to herself:
"Leng Ming, you big fool, you knew my sword was coming towards you, why didn't you dodge? If it had pierced your heart, I would have regretted it to death."
"Ever since we met, it seems like we've become enemies. The first time you took me out of town, you said you were taking me to watch fireworks, but in the end, you took me to see dead people. You didn't scare me, but you scared yourself to death. Haha... Do you remember? Later, on the way back to the city, I was injured, and you carried me on your back. At that time, I thought you were a pretty good little brother. In fact, I still had some feelings for you at that time, but later, I felt that your style of doing things was becoming more and more childish, which made me feel that we were not from the same world at all, and we were not suitable to be together at all."
Having said this, she sighed to herself, thinking of the past, and continued to mutter to herself:
"But you're such a stubborn person, so stubborn and insane. You've already said we're not suitable for each other, so why did you still use all sorts of tricks to marry me? This is what you get for marrying me. If you've had enough, just tell me. I... can divorce you."
"No...no, I don't want a divorce."
Leng Ming, who had been in a coma, suddenly uttered these words weakly. Luo Xue rushed to the bedside and asked anxiously:
"Leng Ming, are you awake? You finally woke up..."
Leng Ming's face was very pale. He opened his lips slightly and spoke slowly:
"I won't divorce you. Even if you kill me, I won't let you leave me..."
"Don't talk, you're very weak now. I'll ask someone to bring you some porridge..."
"Luo Xue..."
