Chapter 968: It turns out that we have been prepared



The three of them soon arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion.

When Aji saw the three characters "Yu Wangfu", he immediately raised his hand to cover his mouth.

"Brother Feng, didn't you say...didn't you say that you have a deep hatred with Prince Yu's Mansion? Why are we here?"

"Shut up."

After Ling Feng scolded Aji, he pulled her behind him and looked at Luo Lan.

"This girl is quick-witted. Don't bother with her."

Luo Lan smiled at him, made a gesture of invitation, and led the way.

Seeing her coming back, Ah Gang hurried over to greet her.

"My Lady, are you back?"

Empress?

Hearing this name, Aji was stunned for a moment, then he pulled the corner of Lingfeng's clothes.

"Brother Feng, who is she?"

"Shut up, talk less and listen more."

Aji stuck out his tongue, followed him quietly, and said nothing more.

After arriving at the yard, looking at the guards all over the yard, Aji tugged at Ling Feng's clothes in fear. Ling Feng turned around and looked at her.

"Wait for me outside and don't run around."

"Brother Feng, I'll go in with you."

"No, there are some things you don't need to know. Wait for me here."

After saying this, he glanced at the guards and followed Luo Lan into the main hall of Prince Yu's Mansion.

Leng Yu had heard from others that Luo Lan had brought a young man named Ling. He was beginning to doubt the identity of this young man Ling when Luo Lan and the others came in.

"Long live the emperor."

After she bowed, Ling Feng stood there with a cold expression on his face, not moving. Leng Yu already knew that he was from Dongyang Country, so she didn't think he was being rude.

"Madam, who is this?"

"This is the eldest prince of Dongyang State, Master Lingfeng."

The eldest prince?

Hearing this address, Leng Yu couldn't help but take a breath, then nodded to him.

"Mr. Ling, please take a seat. Someone, bring the tea."

Ling Feng started to look at Leng Yu when he came in. This majestic-looking face made him feel that he should not underestimate him.

However, as the eldest prince of Dongyang Kingdom, he has seen all kinds of people and all kinds of world, so he will not back down just because Leng Yu has a face that would make people feel daunted.

After he clasped his hands together in gesture, he sat down on the chair closest to him. Leng Yu also walked up from his seat and sat on the chair next to him as if he were a friend.

After Ah Hong served the tea, he poured it for him personally and pushed it in front of him, politely extending his hand to him.

"Mr. Ling, please have some tea."

Ling Feng didn't know what to do with this sudden courtesy. Luo Lan, who was sitting opposite him, smiled softly.

"Mr. Ling, my husband has always been a people-friendly emperor. You are a foreign friend from Dongyang. Since we meet here today, if you have anything to say, just ask him."

Ling Feng glanced at Luo Lan, then looked at Leng Yu and asked seriously,

"Eight years ago, have you ever been to Dongyang Kingdom?"

Leng Yu immediately shook his head.

"I have never set foot in Dongyang Country."

"Then did you send someone to my Dongyang Kingdom to abduct a four-year-old child?"

Leng Yu immediately gave a bitter smile.

"There's no shortage of children in Prince Yu's mansion. Why would I bother with someone else's? Besides, eight years ago, I was fighting the Chu people. I didn't even have time to look at my own child after it was born, so how could I have the heart to bother with someone else's?"

After saying this, he looked at Luo Lan in surprise.

"Madam, what is going on?"

Seeing him ask, Luo Lan simply said:

"My husband, Master Ling's younger brother went missing eight years ago. Over the past eight years, he has searched for him in various countries, but to no avail. A year ago, he met a man named Huang in the Kingdom of Beihai. Mr. Huang said that you brought back a child eight years ago and killed that child..."

At this point, she shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

Leng Yu looked at Luo Lan with a mixture of laughter and tears.

"Mr. Huang from Beihai Kingdom? Could it be Huang Yun? The Mr. Huang who disguised himself as a man and lurked in our Prince Yu's mansion for five years?"

Luo Lan nodded.

"I also guessed it was her. It seems that she has a great hatred for the Daning Kingdom and is not hesitant to fabricate you in front of others."

Seeing that the two of them mentioned Huang Yun at the same time without any private communication, Ling Feng knew that what Luo Lan said to him was true.

Leng Yu couldn't help laughing.

"She must have fabricated this to stir up trouble between the two countries. She wants the North Sea Kingdom to reap the benefits. She's really calculating. But someone actually believed this lame story. This... This is very surprising."

Ling Feng cleared his throat awkwardly, then looked at Leng Yu.

"I admit that it was my eagerness to find my brother that led me to believe Young Master Huang's words in a moment of desperation. However, my brother is indeed nowhere to be found in the surrounding countries. I now place all my hopes on the Daning Kingdom. I beg Your Majesty to help me find him. This will not only clear your name, but also reduce the hostility of my Dongyang Kingdom towards Daning."

Leng Yu glanced at Luo Lan, and suddenly smiled disdainfully. He raised his deep eyes and looked at Ling Feng.

"You want to find your brother, and I sympathize with you. I help you out of courtesy, and not helping you is my duty. If your Dongyang Kingdom becomes hostile to Daning Kingdom because of this, I am not afraid. My territory of Daning Kingdom is not something that people from your Dongyang Kingdom can come to just because they want to..."

After saying this, before Ling Feng could react, he looked at Luo Lan.

"Oh, Lan'er, Xiao Lingzi just reported that they've dismantled some gunpowder in various corners of the capital. I was wondering who is so audacious as to resort to such despicable tactics right under my nose?"
