While she was thinking about this question, the palace maid had already brought her to Shulan Courtyard.
"Princess Yu, my name is Xiaoyu and hers is Xiaohong. Eunuch Liu has instructed us to serve you well. If you have any questions, please feel free to tell us."
Luo Lan glanced at the two little girls and nodded, "No need to serve, just prepare a pot of tea for me."
She didn't have any requests now. She just wanted to be alone and quiet for a while, thinking about how to deal with the emperor's interrogation tomorrow, and also thinking about the relationship between Leng Yu and Concubine Chang.
The two maids bowed and retreated. After a while, tea and cakes were brought to her.
She waved to the two maids, and they retreated. Sitting in the quiet room, in this unfamiliar environment, looking at the clear yet slightly yellowish tea in the cup, she suddenly felt a little worried. If she couldn't go back tonight, would Leng Yu worry about him? Would he eat properly? Would he sleep?
This is the first time she has spent the night outside since she came to Prince Yu's Mansion, and it is unknown what will happen tomorrow.
She was not afraid of anything, but she was afraid that Leng Yu would give up on himself like before because of worrying about her.
"princess……"
In this room where you could hear a pin drop, the girl's voice was heard.
She raised her eyes and asked softly, "What's the matter?"
"Princess, Ruyi, the maidservant beside Concubine Chang, is here. She said Concubine Chang wants you to come over."
As one wishes?
Thinking of this girl, a hint of disgust appeared in her eyes.
Since Concubine Chang had given the message, there was no reason for her to hide. However, she really didn't want to see Concubine Chang.
So she stood up and walked slowly to the door.
There were two little girls standing behind Ruyi. Judging from her clothes, she should be the personal maid next to Concubine Chang. When she saw Luo Lan, she looked disdainful and bowed reluctantly.
"Good luck to Princess Yu. Concubine Chang invites you over for tea."
Luo Lan changed his gloomy expression, raised his proud head and looked at her, whispering:
"This princess came to the palace on the emperor's order. I have something to do tomorrow. It's getting late now, so it's really inconvenient for me to go see Concubine Chang."
Ruyi looked at her with disdain on her face, "Princess Yu, don't you want to give Concubine Chang face? Concubine Chang summoned you, and you dare not meet her? Not to mention you, Princess Yu, even the people in the harem would not dare to not give Concubine Chang face, so I advise you to know yourself better."
"Oh!"
She raised her eyebrows slightly and snorted coldly, "You are just a girl, and you dare to frame me. Do you know your crime?"
Hearing this, Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then looked at her with a sullen face.
"Princess Yu, your words are too harsh. How dare I frame you? I am only reminding you. If you don't listen, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Leaving these words, she asked again frivolously:
"Princess Yu is really not going to see Concubine Chang?"
Luo Lan nodded without hesitation, "I'm tired today. I'll go pay my respects to Concubine Chang when I have time tomorrow."
She knew that there was no good reason for Concubine Chang to ask her to go. She just wanted to symbolically ask about Leng Yu's situation and then give her some warnings.
In the past, she was Leng Yu's mother, so she would be more polite to her. But now, from the emperor's words, she vaguely heard that there was another reason. Thinking about what she had done to Leng Yu, she didn't want to be polite to her anymore.
Ruyi turned around and left with a few maids. Xiaohong and Xiaoyu did not say much to the unfamiliar Princess Yu and they all retreated.
She looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky. It was still early and there was nothing to do. She suddenly wanted to go out for a walk. Eunuch Liu had told her not to walk around in the palace. This Shulan Courtyard was far away from the emperor's bedroom. When she came here, she passed by a small garden. Although it was late autumn and the flowers had already withered, the scenery there was still nice. Going there to get some fresh air could not be considered as walking around!
Thinking of this, she wrapped her clothes around her and walked towards the door.
The location of Shulanyuan is not remote. The small garden is just an ordinary garden with a lotus lake. The lotus flowers have withered and the lotus leaves have dried up. Fortunately, the lake water is still relatively clear, and several small fish swimming around at the bottom of the lake can be clearly seen.
She sat on a smooth stone by the lake, looking at the quiet water, feeling an indescribable sense of loss in her heart.
After spending some time with Leng Yu, she has fallen deeply in love with him. Not only does Leng Yu not want to leave her, she also does not want to be separated from him.
She couldn't figure out what had gone wrong. Who had died after taking her medicine? She had kept records of all the patients she had seen in recent days. According to the emperor, the person who had sued her was called Xu Tianhu, and it was said that the person who died was his mother.
Thinking of this, she took out the medical records from the operating room, sat by the river, and looked through them carefully.
Her clinic was only prosperous for a few days, so there were not many records. She had only had older patients in her records for a dozen years, and there were three or four elderly women among them.
She picked out the medical records of these three or four people and recalled them one by one.
Suddenly, she thought of something. Four days ago, a bearded man came to her with a sick woman and claimed that the woman was his mother. However, he did not seem to be nice to his mother and seemed very impatient.
Luo Lan couldn't help but frown and think carefully. After this man left, Ahong and Liu Mei were still sighing, saying that it was really a tragedy for this old lady to have such a son.
Thinking of this, she held her chin up and thought carefully. Although the old lady was dressed very gorgeously, her hair was messy and her face was a little dirty. Especially her hands, they were as dry as dry firewood...
Thinking of this, Luo Lan seemed to be lost in thought. She breathed a long sigh, put away the medical record, picked up a stone, and threw it at the fish in the lake.
At this time, a voice that Luo Lan hated sounded,
"Shui Langzhong, why are you here?"
Luo Lan frowned. She recognized the voice of the Dog Prince. He was really haunting her.
She didn't look back, nor did she pay any attention to him.
Leng Yun half-knelt beside her, looking at her with squinting eyes.
"Doctor Shui, are you here to be interrogated by the Emperor? Do you want me to plead with the Emperor on your behalf? Or, I can help you..."
Luo Lan looked at him from the side. This sinister villain's face was really disgusting. She twitched the corner of her mouth and raised her eyebrows and said:
"How can the prince help me?"
Leng Yun saw that her words had softened somewhat, and he immediately smiled. "To be honest, I came to the palace today just to find you. Tomorrow is the Emperor's trial, and this matter is a foregone conclusion. Even if you were Princess Yu, if someone died from taking your medicine, you can't escape responsibility. But there's still time tonight. As long as you agree to my promise, I promise you will be fine."
