Lele pondered for a while and still felt that he should talk to his mother about this matter.
At this time, Luo Lan was discussing Huichuntang's affairs with Luo Xue. Seeing Lele coming in, she asked in surprise:
"Lele, is there something wrong?"
Lele nodded and then shook her head.
Seeing that he was a little strange, Luo Lan glanced at Luo Xue, turned around and asked:
"Just say whatever you want to say. Auntie is not an outsider."
Lele pinched her fingers and said cautiously:
"Mom, Xiaobao was here just now."
Hearing this, Luo Lan stood up with a start.
"What did Xiaobao say to you? Is there any news about An An?"
Lele quickly shook his head,
"No, he didn't find An An. He just came to tell me that his father was eating in his study, and he saw the girl bring two food boxes into the study. He felt that the secret room must be in the study."
Seeing this, Luo Xue hurriedly replied:
"How can one person eat two lunch boxes? And why would Leng Xi eat in the study? So, what Lele said makes sense. There must be something wrong with this study."
Luo Lan also nodded in agreement.
"Well, there is indeed a problem, but we don't have solid evidence, so we can't go to the Xiwang Mansion to search."
"What should we do then?"
"Let's wait for Leng Yu to come back and discuss it!"
After that, she nodded to Lele and said, "Lele, you did a great job."
"Mom, can you reward me by letting me go see Huaiyu? I haven't seen him for a few days. I want to know how he is doing now."
When Huaiyu was mentioned, Luo Lan's heart sank. There had been a lot going on these days, and Leng Yu hadn't figured out how to deal with him yet, so she didn't dare to go see him.
She was afraid that she would be soft-hearted when she saw Huaiyu and do something wrong, so she simply resisted the urge to look at him.
"Well, go ahead. Don't stay there too long. Tell him that if a person does something wrong, he must take responsibility for it. I hope he can recognize his mistakes and not make the same mistake again in the future."
"Mom, I understand. I will persuade him well."
After saying that, Lele turned around impatiently and ran out quickly.
Looking at his back, Luo Lan sighed, "Back then, what I feared most was that these children would grow up and cause chaos. But they haven't even grown up yet, and they've become like this. I even feel that I, as a mother, have failed miserably."
"Sister, don't say that. These things are beyond your control. Besides, my brother-in-law's status is different, so it's normal for others to be jealous. I think Leng Xi must be trying to use An An to threaten my brother-in-law. You guys better make plans early."
"I see. You go back first. I'll be alone for a while."
Luo Lan suddenly felt a little tired, not physically tired, but mentally tired.
Luo Xue nodded, then got up and left. She returned to her room alone and lay directly on the bed, thinking about the past years and feeling melancholy.
…
In the afternoon, Leng Xi really brought back two people from the North Sea Kingdom from outside the city. They were just two insignificant people.
Leng Yu nodded in satisfaction at this, and he immediately praised Leng Xi:
"Prince Xi has made great contributions this time. I will keep this in mind and reward you in the future."
Leng Xi clasped his fists calmly.
"Thank you, Fourth Brother. It is my honor to share the country's worries."
Leng Yu suddenly patted his forehead as if he had thought of something.
"By the way, Lele told me that he wanted to read the book called 'Six Strategies'. I asked the library, and they said you lent it to Xiaobao a while ago. Has he finished it?"
Leng Xi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Leng Yu would still be willing to lend a book to Lele during this time.
But he nodded in response immediately.
"I've finished reading it and was just about to send it back to the library. If Lele wants to read it, I'll ask Xiaobao to bring it to him tomorrow."
Seeing this, Leng Yu's eyes darkened for a moment, then he waved his hand.
"No need to send it. I'll ask someone to go with you to pick it up. Lele has nothing to do these days, and I'm worried that he'll be bored."
So urgent?
Leng Xi frowned and nodded.
"Okay, I'll go back and look for it now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Yu shouted to the people outside:
"Ayu, Empress, go get the book from Prince Hexi. Come back quickly."
Ayu and Ahou both clasped their fists in acceptance of the order, then followed Leng Xi out the door.
Along the way, Leng Xi was muttering to himself, Leng Yu sent two people to follow him to Prince Xi's Mansion, was it really to get the book?
After returning to Prince Xi's Mansion, he took Ayu and Ahou and went straight to the study.
The two of them followed Leng Xi with serious expressions. Their purpose of coming here today was not to get the book, but to carry out a very important mission.
Therefore, they all need to be extremely alert.
Seeing Leng Xi coming back, the servant guarding outside the study hurriedly opened the door, and A Yu and A Hou followed Leng Xi in without hesitation.
"Please wait a moment, I'll go find it now."
A Yu nodded quickly. Seeing Leng Xi going to look for a book, he winked at A Hou, and A Hou went out.
He came to the door and deliberately stepped on the foot of the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper hissed in anger. The queen turned around and glared at him.
"Are you blind? You stepped on my foot. Can't you say something to apologize?"
Hearing this, no matter how good-tempered the servant was, he was so angry that he rolled his eyes.
Seeing this, Ah Hou stepped forward and questioned with glaring eyes,
"Why are you glaring at me, you little slave? If you glare again, I'll dig out your dog eyes."
"How can you be so unreasonable? You stepped on my foot first, and it hurt. I haven't even come to settle the score with you yet, but you're the first to cause trouble?"
