Leng Yu asked Xiao Lingzi to take the letter he wrote to Luo Lan, along with Xiao Tanzi, Xiao Shuangzi and Xiao Ningzi to follow the royal carriage to Ningluo City to pick up someone. Originally, the four of them were worried and wanted to leave two of them behind. But thinking of the assassins along the way, he decided to let the four of them go.
At night, he put on a set of night clothes and left Prince Yu's Mansion alone.
Facing the cool evening breeze, his brows knitted together, and the hatred in his eyes was clearly visible.
If the emperor hadn't forced him to stay, he wouldn't have acted as he did tonight.
Since you want to stay, you have to do something.
Prince's Mansion
Since being grounded, Leng Yun has lived a life of eating, drinking and having fun. A few days ago, Taishi Wu took Xiaozhu and two servants away. The reason was that the two of them wanted to take credit for sending a woman named Xiaoyu to the prince. , killed Xiaoyu’s husband and children, so they were sent to the Criminal Department for trial.
As for Xiaoyu, she fell in love with the prince and was adopted as his concubine. No one knows whether this is true or not. Presumably Taishi Wu’s contribution is not small. The emperor also nodded in approval of Taishi Wu’s arrangement. This matter, It came to an end, and Leng Yun felt even more proud.
So, at this time, Leng Yun was holding the graceful woman who had just been sent to the house yesterday in his arms. While drinking tea, he was rubbing the woman's body with one hand, and making witty remarks from time to time. In the center, several maiko are dancing.
It was already dark outside, but it was like daylight in the Prince's Mansion. To describe it as peaceful singing and dancing is not an exaggeration.
Looking at the dancing postures of these women, Leng Yun suddenly thought of Shui Luolan. It was said that that woman's dancing postures were astonishing to heaven, and he didn't know if he would ever have the chance to see it in this life.
Thinking of this, he waved his hands in annoyance, "Everyone, go down! A bunch of vulgar fans."
The music stopped immediately, and the dancers did not dare to dance anymore. Just as they left, the oil lamps on both sides of the main hall suddenly began to flicker, and then all the lights went out.
"ah!"
Suddenly the screams of the woman in his arms were heard. It was so weird that the lights went out. Leng Yun suddenly shouted:
"Here comes someone!"
But no one responded. He shouted loudly, but still no one responded. He and the woman in his arms were at a loss.
"Prince, I'm scared to death. What's going on? Is there a ghost?"
The woman in his arms did not forget to act coquettishly at this time. He pushed her to the ground angrily, and while saying "get out", he shouted again:
"Here comes someone, hold the lamp, where are the people? Where are all the people dead?"
"Hahaha……"
The moment he finished speaking, a burst of laughter that seemed as empty as the horizon resounded through the entire main hall. Through the flickering window lattice, it reached Leng Yun's ears, making him panic and bewildered. I kept waving in this dark night, but I only caught nothing.
"Who? Who are you?"
His voice was trembling, and there was fear in his eyes.
A sound as loud as a bell seemed to pierce Leng Yun's eardrums and pierce the bottom of his ears.
"Leng Yun, you have harmed countless people, but you still have the heart to enjoy yourself. Even the King of Hell can't stand it and wants me to take you back."
After saying that, just when Leng Yunchang was about to touch the sword and fight back, a long sword shining with silver light was caught off guard and hit his throat. At this time, eight parts of his soul were frightened away, leaving only two parts behind. That shivered.
"You...who are you? You...what do you want? I...I can give it to you."
"I want your life."
The voice of the man holding the long sword was as cold as ice, which made people shudder.
Leng Yun suddenly went limp and fell directly to the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"My hero, no matter you are a human or a ghost, please let me go! I haven't even seen my son yet. Please don't kill me. Whatever you want, money? House? Beauty? Official position. Whatever you want is fine.”
snort!
Through the dark night, Leng Yu's crystal clear and serious eyes were particularly cold at this time. He did not come here today to kill him. Now the kings of various lands are coming, and Wu Hong will also arrive in ten days. If he kills him at this time, it will definitely cause a big chaos. By then, the country of Da Ning may be in danger.
But he wouldn't be easy on him, so he twitched the corners of his mouth, and a cold look overflowed from the corners of his eyes.
At this time, there was movement outside, and it seemed that someone had discovered him, so he quickly turned the long sword in his hand, and when Leng Yun was unprepared, he pierced the sharp long sword directly into his calf. In the middle, I could only hear him scream "Ah", and his face turned pale.
Hearing the footsteps, the people outside were getting closer and closer. Leng Yu put away the long sword, pointed it at the lower abdomen of his other leg again, stabbed it hard, and coldly snorted:
"This will help you truly stay grounded."
As his scream of "Ah" came again, Leng Yun had collapsed to the ground in pain. His face was as pale as paper, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he was breathing heavily.
Leng Yu's eyes were cold and stern, and he pulled out the sword amidst his wails. The coldness and domineering in his eyes were clearly visible. He looked down at him and said contemptuously:
"The evil you have done will have to be repaid sooner or later. This time it is just a small punishment but a big punishment. Next time, you will only die."
At this time, a voice came from outside, "Prince, Prince, are you okay?"
Following the questioning, the door was pushed open. At the same time, he dodged and jumped out of the window. Like a gust of wind, he disappeared into the vast night without a trace.
The prince was stabbed, and the stabbing was serious. This was not a trivial matter. Early the next morning, the capital exploded, and people from Shuntian Mansion and the Ministry of Punishment began to investigate the matter.
Sitting in the main hall of Prince Yu's Mansion, Leng Yu's face showed no sadness or joy. This was not the most cruel thing. He should have broken his hamstrings, but he couldn't do that. The Wu family has more power in Daning than anyone else. It is clear that although he hates Leng Yun and his father, he cannot let Daning Jiangshan change his surname to another.
This Leng Yun can't kill him yet, this time he just gives him a warning.
…
Xiao Lingzi and others arrived at Ningluo City five days later. According to the emperor's instructions, they hurried day and night without stopping for a moment, because the emperor had issued a death order to bring Princess Yu back before the New Year. Otherwise, she might die. It affects Prince Yu’s mood during the New Year.
When Luo Lan learned the purpose of Xiao Lingzi's visit, he locked himself in the room alone and carefully read the letter written by Leng Yu to her.
"Lan'er, words are like words, my husband misses you so much. I have no choice but not to pick you up in person this time. The emperor doesn't allow me to leave the capital, and also gives you back the status of Princess Yu, although I know this is not what you and I want in our hearts. I think, but I can only do this as a temporary measure. Therefore, I hope you will return to the capital as soon as possible to reunite with your husband. We will discuss all matters in detail when you come back.
Leng Yu's own handwriting. "
Looking at the familiar font, Luo Lan stretched it out and lit it on the candle, burning him bit by bit. Deep in his eyes, the look became unfathomable.
