Although she didn't want to go back at all, she also knew that Leng Yu must be involuntarily. The emperor didn't want to let him out of the palace, so he couldn't leave the palace. In order to be with Leng Yu, she had no choice...
Early the next morning, she ordered Ah Cai and Ah Hong to pack their bags, and asked Zhang Yuan to post a notice at the door of Huichun Hall that Huichun Hall was closed and the opening date was far away, and then she took everyone out.
Sitting on the royal carriage prepared for her, watching the door of Huichun Hall being locked, she felt a bit of reluctance on her brows.
Before leaving, she asked Zhang Yuan to notify the local government. If they did not come back when the rent was due in one year, the house would change hands.
Although she knew that they would not come back, she still wanted to leave a message for herself to let herself know that her heart was free.
Here, she thought she could live a quiet life forever, but in the end, she still had to leave and return to the prosperous place that did not belong to her.
Then she thought about it, as long as she could be with Leng Yu, she would feel much more relaxed.
With her eyes gleaming, she took her head back, closed the sedan curtain door, and the carriage slowly drove away.
Their carriage arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion in the capital three days before the New Year. Because they didn't know when they would return, Leng Yu was not there when she came back. According to A Gang, she went to see a certain general. , As for who it was, A Gang didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask too much.
After Luo Lan came back, Xiao Zhi was the most excited, asking questions around her, causing Liu Mei to keep blaming him for saying too much, but Luo Lan was not annoyed, and instead brought her back from Ningluo City. Give him the goodies one by one.
Liu Meier was busy preparing lunch for her, but she waved her hand and refused.
"I'm really tired and want to take a nap. I want to tell everyone who came back from Ningluo City that they don't have to do anything today and just go to sleep!"
Seeing this, Liu Meier hurriedly pulled Xiao Zhi, "Let's go, let the princess sleep for a while, you are too noisy."
Xiaozhi then looked at Luo Lan with pitiful eyes, pursed his lips and nodded, "Sister, then go to sleep. Xiaozhi will talk to you when you wake up. Xiaozhi has a lot to say to you."
After Luo Lan yawned and nodded with a smile, Liu Mei forcibly dragged Xiao Zhi out and closed the door.
Lying on this familiar bed, Luo Lan had a heavy smile on her lips, her eyelids began to fight, and after a while, she fell into a deep sleep.
In the imperial study room
Leng Yu had just been summoned into the palace. As soon as he finished his salute, the emperor said seriously:
"Yu'er, although Shui Luolan is your princess, she has not officially married her yet. Moreover, she is a peasant girl. I had no choice but to marry her at that time. After all, her status is humble. Don't let this be the royal reception for the annual banquet. She participated."
Hearing this, Leng Yu's eyes flashed with displeasure, even a little anger. Is it possible that his Leng Yu woman should be hidden?
But he was not annoyed, but replied calmly:
"What the father said is absolutely true, and my son also has this intention. Lan'er doesn't like the excitement, so I just want to accompany her to celebrate the New Year at Prince Yu's Mansion."
Hearing this, the emperor's face changed slightly. It was not that he couldn't tell that Leng Yu was threatening him again.
Liu Xi, who was standing aside, saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Your Majesty, although Princess Yu is not the most noble, she performed an amazing dance at Concubine Chang Guifei's birthday party. It is still a good story among the people, and she Her behavior is not like that of a farm girl at all, but she is very ladylike, so the old slave thinks that she should be dressed up to attend."
Hearing this, the emperor's brows were deeply furrowed. Liu Xi quickly gave him a wink, hoping that he would not anger Prince Yu at this time. After all, Prince Yu had already personally received several Tibetan kings who had come to Beijing. If three days later, At the annual banquet, Prince Yu did not appear, which would inevitably arouse a lot of speculation.
Although the emperor still looked down upon Luo Lan's status, thinking of Leng Yu's suffering in the past three years, he could only lower his eyebrows and reluctantly said:
"What Liu Xi said makes sense, so let her do it, but we have agreed beforehand that she can't force herself to be in the limelight."
The emperor's words made Leng Yu uncomfortable to listen to. The underlying meaning behind his words seemed as if his Lan'er loved to be in the limelight. She would have been too lazy to attend such a boring annual banquet. If it wasn't for everyone to know that Shui was As Princess Luo Lanyu, he would really rather spend their first New Year with her in Prince Yu's Mansion.
So, he frowned, leaned forward and cupped his fists:
"My father may have misunderstood Erchen's intention. Erchen doesn't want her to show up in public, and she doesn't like to participate in such occasions. As for being in the limelight, that's not her style, and she doesn't need to rely on being in the limelight to please her. Others, if my father is afraid that she will push for the limelight and lose the royal family's face, then it is better not to let her come. I will just watch her in Prince Yu's Mansion."
His words were like needles, which made the emperor very angry. His son actually spoke for this country woman everywhere, which really disappointed him.
But what can he do as the emperor? If he talks too much about that woman, his son will become a commoner and accompany that woman.
If those Tibetan kings heard this, wouldn't they laugh out loud at the Leng family? Especially King Zhennan, his men and horses will arrive in the capital soon. He has not seen him for so many years, and he cannot let him see the joke.
Thinking of this, he tightened his expression, exhaled slowly, suppressed his anger and said softly:
"Neither Xi'er nor Ming'er are married, and there are many female relatives at the annual banquet, so let her attend and accompany them. I will order someone to send a good brocade dress."
Although the emperor's words were somewhat reluctant, the corners of Leng Yu's lips were secretly rising.
It's time for him to let everyone know his Princess Yu.
…
Luo Lan slept for a long time, so long that she felt like she had fallen asleep.
When she opened her eyes while dozing off, she suddenly looked into a pair of beautiful eyes that captivated her soul.
Those eyes were looking straight at her, as if they were admiring a work of art, intently.
"Lan'er, are you awake?"
The moment she opened her eyes, his gentle voice reached her ears.
She nodded with a smile, a hint of tenderness on her shy face, "How long have I been sleeping?"
"You were asleep when I came back, and you slept all day."
It turned out that it had only been a whole day, and she thought she had slept for a whole year.
After leaving these words, he put his hand on her forehead and said softly:
"You lie down for a while, and I'll order someone to get you something to eat. Are you hungry?"
As soon as he finished speaking, her stomach really growled. She blushed with embarrassment, but Leng Yu raised his hand to rub her belly and said softly:
"I knew you'd be hungry, so just wait."
After saying that, like a happy rabbit, he dragged his tall and slender body and walked quickly towards the door with brisk steps.
