Leng Yu raised his hand quickly.
"Let them in!"
Seeing this, Ahong and Acai hurriedly retreated.
After a while, Leng Ming and Luo Xue came to them quickly, bowed and saluted.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Empress."
Leng Yu raised her hand to signal,
"Hurry up and get up. You came so early, is there something wrong?"
Leng Ming glanced at Luo Xue and kept silent in embarrassment.
Luo Lan looked at Luo Xue with some confusion.
"Xue, just say whatever you want to say! No need to be so hesitant."
Luo Xue bit her lip and urged Leng Ming,
"Leng Ming, tell me your story quickly. The emperor is busy with many things and has no time to waste with you."
Leng Ming cleared his throat and solemnly clasped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, when you ascended the throne, you issued a decree granting amnesty to the entire nation. Now, most of the prisoners have been released, and Concubine Li has returned to Prince Xi's mansion. I am concerned that my mother, Chang, is old and still confined to the cold palace. I would like to ask you to allow her to leave the cold palace and return to my Prince Ming's mansion so that I can fulfill my filial duty."
Leng Ming's words made Leng Yu frown. Chang was the person he least wanted to mention and the person he hated the most.
Seeing that the emperor did not agree, Luo Xue also pleaded for mercy.
"Your Majesty, the late emperor is dead. Even if Chang Shi has made a thousand mistakes, she is still Leng Ming's mother. Please, for Leng Ming's sake, release her from the cold palace and let us take her back to Prince Ming's mansion to spend her old age."
Leng Ming and Luo Xue's words made Leng Yu fall into deep thought. Seeing this, Luo Lan also took two steps forward and whispered to comfort him:
"Your Majesty, Chang has been imprisoned in the cold palace for many years. I believe she has realized her mistakes. You have already issued a general amnesty, and all prisoners except those on death row have been sent home. Why not let her leave the cold palace as well? This will not only show your magnanimity and righteousness, but also allow Leng Ming to fulfill his filial piety. Why not do it?"
"Does the Queen think so?"
"Well, she's in the cold palace, and someone has to take care of her food, clothing, and daily expenses every month. Why bother?"
Leng Yu's nose wrinkled slightly, hinting at his annoyance at the moment.
After pondering for a while, he nodded solemnly.
"Okay, since you have such filial piety, I will grant your wish."
Hearing this, Leng Ming and Luo Xue knelt down together to express their gratitude.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
"Get up! Qin Shun, draft an imperial decree to allow Chang to leave the cold palace and return to Prince Ming's mansion to live a peaceful life. You will go to the cold palace with my imperial decree later to pick her up!"
A bright smile suddenly appeared on Leng Ming's face, and Luo Xue also smiled with relief.
Seeing the two of them following Qin Shun and happily going to the cold palace to pick someone up, Luo Lan sighed secretly.
"No matter what I say, if it weren't for her, you and I wouldn't have had a chance to be together, so give her a chance! So many years have passed, and I don't know if Chang's personality has changed. If not, it would be very difficult for Luo Xue to live with her!"
Leng Yu shook his head with the corners of his mouth drooping slightly.
"It's easy to change a country, but hard to change one's character. Her personality can't be changed even if she's thrown into the cold palace, let alone the prison. But she will have ambition but no courage in the future. Do you think she's difficult to get along with? I think, based on Luo Xue's temper, even if she is gay, Luo Xue will straighten her out."
Leng Yu's words made Luo Lan want to laugh.
"You know Luo Xue better. This girl has softened a lot since she gave birth to Duoduo. Otherwise, she would be like a flower with thorns, hurting anyone who picked her."
"You're still talking about her? You're still the same."
Seeing him mocking her, Luo Lan pouted and glared at him.
"What's wrong with me? Am I not gentle enough to you?"
Leng Yu shook her head in grievance.
"Gentle? You are not gentle to me at all. Last night, you almost took my life."
"you……"
Luo Lan's face turned red with anger, and then she glared at him.
"I'm not going to chat with you any more. I'm going to go check on Lele. I found him a new husband these days, and I don't know if he's adapting well."
When Lele was mentioned, Leng Yu suddenly looked at her as if she had thought of something.
"By the way, Huaiyu...is there any news?"
He asked about Huaiyu, which surprised her a little.
She shook her head somewhat dejectedly.
"The person who went to Ducheng replied that Huaiyu sent a letter to Dazhi to let him know he was safe. He said he was going to live in a quiet place and would not let anyone look for him. He would take care of himself."
Hearing this, Leng Yu frowned anxiously.
"Where can he go? I'm most afraid he'll go astray!"
Luo Lan sighed, "Everyone has their own aspirations! He's already fourteen years old. Since he wants to have his own life, we should respect his ideas!"
Luo Lan said this out of helplessness.
She knew that Huaiyu had his reasons for leaving.
If he is forced to live in the capital, he will live in agony every day and feel that he has let everyone down. This will not be good for him in the long run.
Perhaps, letting him go out and be quiet for a while can make him a different person.
…
Chang, who was in the cold palace, would never have thought that she would be free when the new emperor ascended the throne.
When Leng Ming brought Luo Xue to her, she stared at Luo Xue in astonishment.
"Shui Luolan? Are you here to watch me have fun?"
Luo Xue was a little bit at a loss, Leng Ming hurriedly took two steps forward to explain,
"Mother, she is Liu Luoxue, your daughter-in-law, General Liu's second daughter, and a twin sister of Empress Liu Luolan."
Chang looked at her suspiciously, and suddenly she looked at Leng Ming.
