"My queen, something happened. Ayu and Ahou have returned with Huaiyu."
"What?"
Hearing this, Luo Lan didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.
She asked hurriedly,
"Where is he?"
"The Emperor has ordered him to be imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. Ayu and the Empress are currently reporting to the Emperor in the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
Luo Lan's heart rose to his throat at this moment.
Huaiyu was imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment as soon as she entered the palace. This was not a good thing. It seemed that the emperor was still very angry with Huaiyu.
Luo Lan also understood that it was not the emperor's fault that he was angry. If it were her, she would also be angry.
However, she couldn't let Huaiyu get into trouble. Even if she had to sacrifice her own life, she had to protect Huaiyu's life.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to go out, but Ah Cai hurried over to stop her.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has just issued an edict. No one is allowed to see Huaiyu without his imperial decree. You'd better...you'd better not go for now."
"But...but I haven't seen Huaiyu for a long time. He's been imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. He must be scared."
"Your Majesty, please don't be anxious. After the Emperor finishes his questioning, I'll go call Ayu and the Empress. We'll find out after we ask them. The Emperor is furious right now, so he won't show mercy if you go and plead now!"
"Yes, my lady, I heard that the emperor hasn't summoned Huaiyu yet. He must be very angry with Huaiyu now. Let's wait for Ayu and Ah Hou to come and ask about the situation first!"
Ah Hong and Ah Cai's words calmed Luo Lan's mood a little.
They were right. Huaiyu was wrong after all. If she pleaded for mercy without asking any questions, the emperor would definitely be angry.
It would be better for her to wait for Ayu and Ahou to tell her about Huaiyu's situation before making any plans.
Time passed little by little, and Luo Lan paced back and forth in Fengyi Palace throughout the afternoon.
A Cai and A Hong have tried to persuade her several times to take a break, but she refused. She felt as anxious as a cat scratching or a dog biting her.
At this moment, Ah Cai ran in quickly.
"Your Majesty, Ayu and the Empress have come out of the Yangxin Palace. Ahong called them here."
Hearing this, Luo Lan waved his hands impatiently.
"Quick, let them in."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ahong came in with Ayu and Ahou.
They came to Luo Lan, clasped their fists and saluted.
"Hail, Your Majesty."
She didn't have time to tell them to excuse themselves, and she couldn't wait to ask,
"Quick, tell me, how is Huaiyu?"
Seeing that she was asking anxiously, Ayu replied directly:
"Huaiyu is in good condition, and this time he took the initiative to find us and wanted to come back with us."
"What does the Emperor say?"
Ah Hou Hui,
"The Emperor said to lock him up for a few days so he can think carefully about how to deal with him."
"What else did the Emperor say?"
"This is all the Emperor said about Huaiyu."
"Then you stayed in the Yangxin Palace for so long, what did you say? What exactly does he want to do with Huaiyu?"
Ayu and Ahou shook their heads together,
"The Emperor really only said to lock him up first, and nothing else."
"What about Huaiyu? Where did you find him?"
"At Xiangshan Temple."
"Did he really come back with you on his own initiative?"
"Yes, we heard that he was in Xiangshan Temple, so we looked for him along the way, and we actually found him there. He had heard about his high school top scorer and An An taking the blame for him, so he followed us back without hesitation."
Luo Lan was a little confused by what Ayu and Ahou said. She was not sure why Huaiyu had come to his senses.
At this moment, she couldn't get any new information out of them, so she simply waved her hand at them.
"You are tired too, go back and rest!"
Seeing this, the two of them looked at each other, saluted her, and then retreated.
Ah Hong saw Luo Lan pressing her forehead, so she came over and gently massaged her while comforting her.
"Your Majesty, please don't worry. If the Emperor cares for Yu for a few days, he might calm down."
Ah Cai also followed and echoed,
"Yes, if the emperor really wanted to punish Huaiyu, he would have thrown him directly into the Heavenly Prison. Why would he keep him in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Luo Lan knew that Ahong and Acai were trying to comfort her because they were afraid that she would get angry.
She sighed softly and waved to the two of them.
"You guys go down first! I want to be alone for a while."
"Yes, my lady."
Ah Hong and Ah Cai both knew that when the Empress was in a bad mood, she did not like being disturbed, nor did she need anyone to persuade her.
She has the ability to comfort herself, and maybe after tonight, she will be able to figure it out.
After the two of them retreated, Luo Lan staggered to his feet and walked towards the bed.
She was really tired and she wanted to sleep.
Every time she encountered something that made her irritated, she wanted to sleep, as if everything would be fine after a good night's sleep...
…
Prince Ning's Mansion
As night fell, Xingnan waited anxiously in the bedroom, waiting for Xiao Ningzi to come back.
Xiao Ningzi also knew about Huaiyu's affairs. When he came back, he shook his head and sighed, and seemed to be in a bad mood.
However, the aroma of incense in the room instantly lifted his spirits.
He sniffed hard and looked at Xingnan, who was squinting at him, in confusion.
"Where did you get this incense? It smells different from the previous ones."
Xingnan thought of Luo Lan's words and pounced on him. Without saying anything, he started to touch him all over and take off his clothes.
Xiao Ningzi was confused by her, "What are you doing?"
"Brother Ning, let's go to bed early!"
