The next morning
The maid brought water for washing her face, and she couldn't help but ask in surprise:
"Where is Master Ling?"
"The young master has gone out. He told us to serve you well. If you have any requests, just tell us. By the way, breakfast is porridge and boiled eggs. Can you get used to it?"
Going out so early?
She frowned and pondered for a while, then nodded.
"I'll wash my face myself. Just put the food on the table. I'll eat it later."
She was worried about what Ling Feng was doing out so early in the morning. She still had to go back and deal with An An's affairs. She didn't have much time to waste here. She had to find out their details as soon as possible.
Just as she was thinking about this, she heard someone talking outside:
"Sir, you're back so early?"
"Is Miss Lan Meng awake?"
"She's awake. Have you brought her breakfast?"
"She's not used to the breakfast you made, so I bought her some freshly-baked buns."
As he spoke, he walked happily towards her room.
When she saw Lan Meng sitting at the table ready to eat, she hurried forward to stop him.
"Miss Lan Meng, these are freshly baked buns. Have some!"
Seeing his flattering look, a young girl with her arms folded came out from the doorway. She rolled her eyes at the two people in the room and ridiculed them with disdain.
"Hey, where did you invite a young lady here? And you have to trouble me to serve her personally?"
This woman looked unfamiliar. Luo Lan didn't see her when he came last night. Seeing her sleepy look, she must have just woken up.
Ling Feng turned around and looked at her coldly, and replied unhappily:
"Miss Lan Meng is my guest, please be polite."
"Guest? How can you be polite? She's wearing a veil in broad daylight, trying to be mysterious. Have you ever seen what she looks like? I'm afraid you're treating her like a guest, and she's treating you like an outsider."
"Don't talk nonsense..."
Ling Feng yelled at the woman awkwardly, then spread the buns in his hand in front of Luo Lan.
"Miss Lan Meng, ignore her. Come and eat the buns."
Seeing this, the woman ridiculed:
"How can you eat buns with a veil on? Ling Feng, you'd better get out. I guess this girl from Lan Meng is afraid of having her veil removed. You probably have no interest in her at all!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll take action."
Ling Feng's tone became sharp. The woman snorted coldly, stamped her feet angrily, and turned away.
He then turned back to look at Luo Lan.
"Miss Lan Meng, don't be angry. Eat slowly. I'm going out first."
Seeing him about to leave, Luo Lan frowned and then tried to stop him:
"Master Ling, close the door and sit down to eat together!"
Ling Feng, who was about to turn around, heard this and went to the door and closed it. When he turned around, Luo Lan was slowly taking off the veil on her face.
Seeing this face, Ling Feng blinked hard a few times, then pointed at her in astonishment.
"You...was it you I saw when I came to deliver the letter that day?"
Luo Lan chuckled and shook his head.
"She is my sister. We are twin sisters."
"Your sister? I see she's not dressed like a servant..."
"She is not a servant, she is Princess Ming, Liu Dechang's youngest daughter Liu Luoxue."
Hearing this, Ling Feng looked at her as if he hadn't reacted.
"and you?"
His face turned pale at this moment.
"Are you Liu Dechang's eldest daughter? The current Empress of Daning Kingdom, Liu Luolan, who was crowned the number one female physician of Daning Kingdom by the late Emperor?"
Seeing that he knew her well, Luo Lan nodded casually.
The reason why she revealed her identity truthfully was that she wanted to tell Ling Feng as soon as possible that the fact that she could follow him here proved that it was impossible for them to do anything illegal on the territory of Daning Kingdom.
Ling Feng stood up from the chair in a flash, his face turning from pale to blue, and then he slapped his forehead with one hand, mocking him non-stop:
"I, Ling Feng, have always been known for my cautious approach. But this time, I actually... actually summoned the Queen of Daning Kingdom to my home. This is truly... truly a huge joke."
At this point, he suddenly turned to look at her.
"Are you the one playing the piano in Yilan County?"
"It's me."
"Then why are you in Xiangyue Tower?"
"To find out the truth about the mine in Yilan County."
Ling Feng frowned and nodded again.
"You're truly a couple, you and the Emperor, trying to get to the bottom of what happened in Yilan County. He actually had you singing in a brothel while he went to work as a miner. You two are truly...really adaptable!"
He seemed very angry that Luo Lan had lied to him, and seemed disappointed when he learned Luo Lan's identity.
Luo Lan looked at him seriously.
"The reason I came here with you was all arranged in advance by the Emperor and I..."
"Humph! Are your people already in ambush?"
"No, we don't want to arrest you, otherwise we wouldn't let you out of Prince Yu's Mansion."
"Then what are you going to do? Isn't the damage Leng Yu has caused to my Dongyang Kingdom small? If I knew he was in Yilan County, I would never let him return to the capital alive."
"presumptuous!"
Luo Lan suddenly shouted, then looked at Ling Feng,
"Leng Yu is the emperor of Daning. You can't just call him by his name. I'm telling you the truth today because I don't want to have to deal with you anymore. Now tell me, what is your purpose in coming to Daning? I don't want Daning and Dongyang to start an unnecessary war. In the end, the people will suffer."
Ling Feng looked at Luo Lan's sincere eyes, gritted his teeth and sat down in front of her, then smiled bitterly.
