Luo Lan directly rejected her kindness, and then said:
"It was your Majesty who allowed me to enter Prince Yu's Mansion, and it was also your Majesty who allowed me to be Princess Yu. She also rewarded me many times. Your Majesty treats me well. Therefore, my identity is now suspicious. If the Emperor really pursues it, It will definitely bring trouble to your Majesty, in order not to bring unnecessary trouble to Your Majesty, I came here to tell you today, and I will personally explain this to the Emperor tomorrow, and I hope Your Majesty will give you permission."
After listening to her words, Concubine Chang's eyes darkened, and a look of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes. She knew that Shui Luolan was a difficult person to manipulate. Since she wanted to explain this matter clearly in front of the emperor, she was afraid that even if she did, She wouldn't make it clear to her even though she was so talkative.
In this deep palace, in Dening Palace, she wanted to force her to explain the matter, but she couldn't do it. However, since she was the first one to come to Dening Palace after entering the palace, she felt that she should not do it either. He would say something unfavorable to her.
Thinking of this, Concubine Chang nodded magnanimously, with a bit of false tenderness in her brows, and said softly to Luo Lan:
"Well, you came a little late today. Tomorrow morning, I will take you to see the emperor again. Tonight, you can rest in Dening Palace for now!"
Luo Lan bowed and saluted unceremoniously, "Thank you for your consideration. Luo Lan will leave first."
Concubine Chang winked at Nanny, and then said to her:
"Let's arrange for Princess Yu to stay in the guest room of Dening Palace! Prepare dinner for Princess Yu."
Aunt Yu bowed, bowed, accepted the order and stepped back. Luo Lan also nodded to Concubine Chang and followed her out of the main hall of Dening Palace.
When Ah Cai and Ah Hong saw her coming out, they rushed over to greet her and asked in a low voice:
"Princess, are you okay?"
Luo Lan shook his head and said softly:
"It's okay, stay here first."
Aunt Yu turned around, looked at the three people who had stopped, and said coldly:
"Princess Yu, please go and rest with me."
Luo Lan nodded slightly and followed Aunt Yu.
Aunt Yu arranged for them to stay in the west wing of Dening Palace, arranged for two maids to wait on them, and then left.
It was still early, so Luo Lan was sitting at the table drinking tea. The two maids guarding the door seemed to be waiting for orders at any time, but in fact they were monitoring Luo Lan.
Ah Cai stepped forward and closed the door angrily. Then she came to stand next to Luo Lan with a pout and muttered,
"It's obvious that two people are watching us here. We are not prisoners, so why should we be guarded by them like prisoners?"
Ah Hong frowned and glared at her, "You talk a lot. People have been watching us since we left the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion. Now that we're in Dening Palace, it's strange that no one is watching. What's the fuss?"
Ah Cai muttered reluctantly, "They are guarding here, how can we get out? We can't stay here forever, right?"
Listening to this little girl nagging, Luo Lan took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"Concubine Chang did not ask them to watch us, so we are free to come and go. We will go out for a walk after a while. Although it will be winter soon, the scenery in the back garden of the palace should still be good."
Ah Hong nodded understandingly, "The princess is right, after leaving this room, it's hard to get rid of those two little girls!"
Luo Lan blinked her eyes slyly. Looking at the sky, it was still an hour before Mao time. She said to A Cai and A Hong:
"Come on, let's go out for a walk."
After saying this, she came to the door and opened the door.
When the two maids at the door saw her coming out, they hurriedly bowed and saluted, "What are your orders, Princess Yu?"
Luo Lan cleared her throat and said softly:
"It's okay. It's too depressing here. Let's go out for a walk."
One of the palace ladies hurriedly replied:
"Your Majesty, if you have something to say, please ask Princess Yu to have a good rest here."
Luo Lan's face turned cold, she raised her eyebrows and said sternly:
"I'm not tired, Princess. I want to go out for a walk."
With these words, she strode out of the threshold, followed closely by A Cai and A Hong. The two palace maids wanted to stop them, but looking at the postures of these three people, they did not dare to say more and could only follow quietly. Go up.
The three of them came to the back garden for a leisurely stroll. They wandered in the rockery for a while, and went to the river to watch fish. When they were tired from walking, they sat in the pavilion to rest. The two palace ladies followed them not far or near.
At this moment, Leng Xi came to the back garden while kicking the pebbles on the ground. When he saw Luo Lan sitting in the pavilion, he was surprised at first, and then quickly came to her side. Among the two palace ladies, One of them hurriedly ran back to report the news, while the other one was still standing there, staring at Luo Lan's position.
Luo Lan was a little surprised to see Leng Xi here. Before she could speak, Leng Xi asked her:
"Why did the emperor's sister-in-law enter the palace?"
Luo Lan tilted her head and looked at him, while fiddling with the handkerchief in her hand, she replied:
"Why can't I enter the palace?"
Leng Xi sat on the stone bench opposite her and looked at her nervously.
"What I mean is that now my father and Concubine Chang are doubting your identity. Why did you fall into the trap?"
Throw yourself into a trap...
Luo Lan felt that the word he used was very appropriate.
She looked at him with a sunny smile, and then whispered:
"Everything has to be solved. Instead of waiting for the emperor to issue an order to hand me over to the Department of Punishment for punishment, why not take the initiative to come and plead guilty."
"You are open-minded."
Leng Xi held his chin with one hand, looked at the creek not far away, and murmured:
"The royal family is so ruthless. You said that although you wouldn't let us see my fourth brother, you never did anything to harm my fourth brother. Moreover, you also kept Prince Yu's palace in order. Why do you have to have someone doubt your identity? You just know a little more, what's wrong with that? It's so rare to find a woman with many skills! Alas!"
Listening to his emotion, Luo Lan suddenly felt that he was a bit cute. His words really hit the mark. Royal people are so ruthless.
She lowered her eyebrows and smiled bitterly. Following his gaze, she exhaled and complained:
"That's right! People say that if you have many talents, you will not be able to keep your body down. How come it becomes a crime when you come to your royal family? Are women who marry into the royal family supposed to be stupid?"
"But you are a peasant girl. How can you not make people suspicious if you have so many abilities? But I don't doubt you. I think that although you were born in the countryside, you must have had extraordinary experiences. For example, you have met a certain person. The guidance of an expert from outside the world, or you encountered the enlightenment of a god when you went up the mountain to hunt pigweed, or..."
"Kekeke..."
Listening to his words, Luo Lan couldn't help but want to laugh. A Hong and A Cai, who were standing outside the pavilion, also covered their mouths and snickered.
Seeing Luo Lan laughing at him, Leng Xi pursed his lips angrily and muttered,
"I think this is the best explanation. Otherwise, how can you explain that a country girl like you is full of skills? I am giving you advice, and you still laugh at me. You are really ignorant."
