Although Leng Xi hadn't finished speaking, he also knew that he was a little unfounded. Since the fourth brother had brought them here, he must have already made arrangements. It was true that he was too impatient just now. Thinking of this, he secretly pursed his lips and felt a little. He followed awkwardly.
Arriving at the quiet and elegant room above the teahouse, the four of them sat down one after another, with A Cai and A Hong standing guard outside the door.
The four of them drank tea and chatted. Leng Xi talked the most. Leng Ming talked less and often sat there in a daze. Leng Yu's eyes drifted to Luo Lan from time to time, and then he smiled gently at her.
After a while, Ah Hong pushed open the door of the private room, leaned forward and said:
"Your Majesty, someone is looking for you outside."
Hearing this, Leng Yu seemed to have known it for a long time. He stood up and walked towards the door.
The person waiting outside the door was Xiao Lingzi. When he saw him coming out, he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
"Your Majesty."
Leng Yu looked around and saw no one around, then said in a cold voice with a solemn expression:
"Have you found it?"
Xiao Lingzi looked up at Leng Yu and nodded seriously,
"We found out, they are indeed taking action."
Hearing this, a contemptuous smile appeared at the corner of Leng Yu's mouth. He tightened his expression and asked again,
"Has everything been arranged?"
Xiao Lingzi hurriedly cupped his fists and replied:
"The arrangements have been made, and my subordinates will definitely protect the safety of you and the princess. By the way, Your Majesty, it is said that there will be a martial arts conference in Quan City in mid-February, and there will be a lot of inside information. I think this is a good opportunity to win people's hearts. "
The corners of Leng Yu's eyes were slightly raised, his eyebrows were cold, and he said secretly:
"Go find out more about the martial arts conference. Our Rebirth Hall must grow stronger in a short time."
There was hope in Xiao Lingzi's eyes, as if she was excited at the thought that Rebirth Hall was about to grow, and she hurriedly clasped her fists and said:
"I understand, I will go now."
After saying that, he turned around quickly and disappeared around the corner of the stairs in an instant.
Leng Yu pondered for a while, and just as he was about to turn around, Luo Lan came out to greet him.
"Ms. sir, what happened?"
Seeing the worried look on her face, Leng Yu hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay. Xiao Lingzi came to see me and talked about some gossip. I'll talk to you in detail when I have time."
Although he didn't want to hide anything from her, he couldn't let her know about tonight's Lantern Festival, lest it spoil her interest.
Prince's Mansion
Leng Yun sat at the head of the main hall, his face darkened, and his fists clenched tightly.
Wu Hong glanced at him, then sighed:
"Yun'er, uncle said he would help you, and he will definitely help. Don't worry, tonight is the day they die."
Leng Yun gritted his teeth and raised his eyebrows:
"No, Leng Yu can be killed, but Shui Luolan is kept. I will torture her to death myself."
Thinking of Shui Luolan's pretty face, a lustful look appeared in Leng Yun's eyes.
Shui Luolan was a woman he couldn't touch but could only dream of getting.
Especially when he heard that she stole the show at the New Year's Eve banquet, he wanted to press her down, rub her hard, and make her surrender to him. It was best to let her betray Leng Yu, so that he could relieve his lovesickness. Bitterness took away the hatred in my heart.
Wu Yuanzhang slapped the table inappropriately and shouted at him:
"You are really stubborn. That woman almost killed you. Are you still thinking about her?"
Leng Yun twitched the corners of his mouth and replied with cold eyes:
"I, Leng Yun, have the ultimate goal of keeping Shui Luolan under me in this life. Otherwise, what's the use of fighting over it? I won't be able to close my eyes until I die."
After hearing what he said, Wu Hong winked at Wu Yuanzhang, and then said with a chuckle:
"Yun'er has been a romantic all his life. It's not easy to get a woman. It's just that Shui Luolan is a little special. She is Leng Yu's woman. If Yoon'er wants to get it, he can only seize the world first and secure the throne. Then, the world will It's all yours, why doesn't that woman kneel down and beg you?"
Wu Hong's words made Leng Yun immediately raise his head with hope. He looked at Wu Hong and asked eagerly:
"Uncle, what do you think I should do? What should I do to sit on the throne? Otherwise, you will kill my father now, and I can succeed as the prince."
"Confused."
Wu Yuanzhang was so angry that he raised his beard. When Wu Hong saw this, he raised his hand to stop him from continuing. Instead, he comforted Leng Yun:
"Now is not the time. Not to mention that Leng Yu has become a thorn in our side again. We can't deal with Liu Dechang alone. But I plan to get rid of Leng Yu first tonight. As for that woman, I can catch her. Your uncle will definitely catch you. Now you have to take good care of your feet. When the confinement period is over, perform well in front of the emperor and then find an opportunity to get rid of Liu Dechang. If there is no future trouble, then the inheritance will be logical. The throne is over."
Wu Hong's words seemed to give Leng Yun some blood. He immediately stood up from the chair, but his feet weakened, forcing him to sit down again.
He waved his arms and gritted his teeth bitterly:
"Okay, according to what uncle said, that damn Leng Yu, I had already guessed that he was the one who hurt me that night. He hurt my feet that day, and now let him pay for it with his life. That's right, uncle , can I capture Leng Yu alive? I want him to see with his own eyes how the woman he holds in his hand is tortured by me."
Hearing Leng Yun's unsatisfactory words and looking at his eyes that had no fighting spirit but were full of obscenity, Wu Hong sighed helplessly, frowned and said:
"Leng Yu can't live for a moment longer. The emperor has made him the general of the country. What an important position is this? You have been sitting on the throne of the prince for many years, but you only have a false name. How can you have any real power? It can be seen from this incident , the emperor will definitely use Leng Yu again."
Mentioning this matter, Leng Yun was so angry that the veins on his face jumped out, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.
Wu Yuanzhang waved his hand directly and frowned with narrow eyes:
"Hong'er, tonight, we must make sure everything is flawless."
A sinister and proud look suddenly appeared in the corner of Wu Hong's eyes, the corner of his mouth twitched contemptuously, and he narrowed his eyes and said:
"Father, don't worry, there will be many people accompanying Leng Yu to death tonight."
Leng Yu always had guards around him, and no matter how skilled he was, it was not easy to assassinate him directly, so he had to take advantage of the crowd and let him die quietly.
…
The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival was held on the most prosperous street in the city. This lantern festival was hosted by the Ministry of Rites and organized by local officials in the capital in collaboration with some private businessmen. Therefore, there were particularly many people coming to see the lanterns. Just after midnight, the place was bustling with people. Extremely lively.
There was nothing unusual about the few people walking in the crowd, but the appearance of the man and woman easily attracted others' attention because they were so handsome.
"Ms. sir, look at that lantern. This year is the Year of the Rabbit, and the lanterns are all in the shape of a rabbit."
"Boss, I want that rabbit lantern, the pink one."
Hearing this, A Cai and A Hong looked at each other helplessly again, then looked at their master with a wry smile.
Along the way, whatever she pointed at, Leng Yu bought her something, which was very painful for the two girls following them.
Luo Lan picked up the rabbit-shaped lantern Leng Yu handed her, winked at him with a smile, and shouted loudly:
"My husband is so kind."
But Leng Yu didn't reply to her, but looked around for something. Luo Lan hurriedly pulled his hand and asked, "What's wrong with my husband?"
