Going out?
Luo Lan shook his head.
"I don't know. Maybe when I don't have classes, I can go out for a walk. The children are older now, and I don't want to control them too strictly. After they enter the palace, it won't be so easy for them to go out at will. It's good to go out for a walk now."
Luo Xue nodded with her pupils slightly drooping.
"Having said that, I still think it's best to keep the children out as much as possible. My brother-in-law will be entering the palace to be crowned emperor in two weeks. This is a well-known fact. During this period, there is no guarantee that there won't be jealous people who will do something outrageous. It's better to be careful."
"I know what you mean, but these kids are all skilled in martial arts. I'm afraid even three or two people wouldn't be able to get close to them. I'll tell them to be more careful and stay out of the house."
"Oh right..."
Luo Xue seemed to remember something and continued:
"After my brother-in-law ascends the throne, will he be able to resume trade with the State of Chu? A few days ago, Letu wrote me a letter. He said he hopes that after my brother-in-law ascends the throne, he can open up trade with the State of Daning so that the people can do business. He also wants to visit Daning frequently to consolidate the strength of both sides. That way, they won't be afraid of an invasion from the ambitious king of the Beihai Kingdom."
When the North Sea Kingdom was mentioned, Luo Lan's face suddenly darkened.
She knew better than anyone how much effort Leng Yu had put in over the years because of the affairs of the Beihai Kingdom.
Luo Lan felt relieved that Meng Letu had this idea.
Because, between Beihai State and Chu State, there is Daning State. As long as Daning State remains stable, Beihai State will never be able to attack Chu State.
Meng Letu proposed to sue for peace at this time, obviously wanting to lend a helping hand to Daning Kingdom. This made her feel that Meng Letu was indeed a man of great righteousness, completely different from his father.
He also knew that only when Leng Yu ascended the throne could normal exchanges between the two countries be restored. It seemed that he was quite familiar with the situation in Daning Kingdom.
Luo Lan said gently:
"Okay, I will mention this to Leng Yu, but if the emperor knew about this, I'm afraid he wouldn't agree. So, don't mention it to outsiders yet. Wait until your brother-in-law ascends the throne, and then make a decision."
"I know."
Luo Xue nodded with a smile on her face.
"That's why I'm bringing this up now. I know the Emperor hates the Chu Kingdom to the core, but I think my brother-in-law is a reasonable man. If he becomes the Emperor, he will definitely make the right choice."
“You!”
Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled helplessly.
"You are speaking without restraint. Your brother-in-law is reasonable, and the emperor is even more sensible. In the future, when you speak in front of others, don't always let people find fault with you."
Luo Xue snorted in anger, thinking of what happened during the meal at Prince Yu's Mansion, she couldn't help but complain.
"That Leng Xi is insidious and cunning. When my brother-in-law ascends the throne, he will be the first one to be dealt with. Otherwise, he might cause some trouble."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Luo Lan frowned and scolded in a low voice:
"If you say this at this time, you're going to cause trouble for your brother-in-law! Not to mention that he doesn't have such intentions, even if he does, you can't say it out loud."
Luo Xue curled her lips, shrugged her shoulders and replied:
"There's no one else here."
Luo Lan sat up straight and said in a firm tone:
"It's okay, go back! I'll ask A-Li to find you to sign a contract. Starting tomorrow, Huichun Hall will be under your management. Before you enter the palace, I will visit you often. You must remember what I told you..."
Luo Xue also stood up from her chair and nodded happily.
"I understand. I'll be leaving now."
As she spoke, she did not forget to pick up the water cup on the table, drank the water in the cup, and said with a mischievous laugh:
"Long live the Queen."
Luo Lan scolded her coldly.
"No rules."
Before she could finish her words, Luo Xue trotted away.
Looking at her back, Luo Lan shook his head helplessly.
"This girl is still like a child, she has no respect for her elders."
However, Luo Lan was still very relieved to hand over Huichuntang to her.
…
In the cloth shop in the city, Huaiyu sat in front of Wu Yuanzhang, looking at him coldly, without saying a word for a long time.
There was a faint smile on Wu Yuanzhang's lips, and he also looked back at Huaiyu, waiting for him to speak.
After a while, Huaiyu finally couldn't help but speak:
"Your name is Wu Yuanzhang? You were once the Grand Tutor of the Daning Kingdom. My grandfather, the Emperor, issued a warrant for your arrest, but you disappeared. It turns out you went to the Beihai Kingdom."
Huaiyu's words surprised Wu Yuanzhang, but he was sure that this child did not tell Leng Yu about his affairs, otherwise, he would not appear in front of him alone.
He frowned slightly and nodded calmly.
"You're right. I'm Wu Yuanzhang, the man Daning State is still looking for. Since you already know my identity, why didn't you tell Leng Yu to arrest me?"
Huaiyu looked at him. This unfriendly face made him feel a little scared.
Seeing that he remained silent, Wu Yuanzhang continued:
"Have all the things I said to you come true?"
Huaiyu tightened her fingers, neither admitting nor denying.
"Hahaha...it seems I guessed it right. Now you believe what I said, right? Leng Yu and Shui Luolan raised you just to show off to others. They never treated you as their own son, nor did they treat you as the eldest son of Prince Yu's mansion. Otherwise, the position of Crown Prince should be yours."
"I don't want to fight, nor do I want to be the crown prince."
