Leng Ming said a little lonely, got out of the way, and watched them leave hand in hand.
Luo Lan felt that her entry into the palace went smoothly today. At least she did not encounter any difficulties from the two concubines who wanted to kill her, and she even received two gifts on the way back.
Three days later,
Today is the day to return to her parents' home. A Cai seems to be more excited than Luo Lan. She came early to wash and dress Luo Lan.
Looking at Ah Cai who was as happy as a cheerful little rabbit, Luo Lan felt a little worried. Ah Hong scolded Luo Lan while tidying up her clothes:
"Acai, did you have a sweet dream last night?"
A Cai pursed her lips and replied:
"I heard a magpie chirping in the tree this morning. I felt like something good was going on, so I was in a good mood. Is there anything wrong?"
Ah Hong frowned and blamed again:
"Can you be more calm in front of the princess?"
"Where am I not stable?"
A Cai pursed her lips somewhat reluctantly and said:
"Princess, tell me, where is A Cai losing his stability?"
Luo Lan could only helplessly smile and shake his head, "A Cai is fine, just a little too happy."
"Princess, you are making fun of A Cai..."
Ah Cai stamped her feet and blushed, looking embarrassed.
The carriage returning home stopped at the Duke's Mansion, and Liu Dechang and his servants came out to greet him in person.
When he saw Leng Yu and Luo Lan getting out of the car, he immediately greeted them with joy from ear to ear.
"My good daughter and son-in-law, dad has been waiting for you for a long time."
Luo Lan hurriedly walked forward, bowed and saluted, "My daughter salutes my father and wishes him good health."
"Okay, okay."
Leng Yu also cupped his fists and said:
"Son-in-law Leng Yu pays homage to Master Yue Zhan."
Liu Dechang waved his hands happily and said:
"Forget these polite words, come into the house quickly, the food is ready."
After saying this, Liu Dechang took Leng Yu and Luo Lan and entered the Duke's Mansion surrounded by a group of servants.
Today's lunch was particularly sumptuous. As usual, Liu Dechang still asked Leng Yu to accompany him for a few more drinks. Luo Lan couldn't help but stop him:
"Dad, you drank too much for my husband a few days ago. Please drink less this time."
"Then how?"
Liu Dechang raised his eyebrows and said:
"Daughter, you don't know that after Yu'er and I drank wine last time, I dreamed of your mother. She lay next to me and talked with me until dawn, and I could still feel the residual warmth around her. "
Speaking of this, Liu Dechang sighed sadly and said:
"I tried several times in the past few days and drank too much, but your mother never showed up again. I was thinking, is it because your mother is happy that you are back, so she came back to see me? So today, You must drink more, maybe your mother will come back to see me when she is happy."
Hearing this, Leng Yu frowned a little confused and Luo Lan looked directly at A Cai, only to see her hanging her head very low, as if she was afraid that others would see her blushing face, A Hong The two hands are also rubbing each other restlessly.
This shows that these two little girls must be hiding something from her.
Luo Lan turned to Liu Dechang and comforted him:
"Dad, didn't I tell you, don't always think about your mother, otherwise she will not be able to reincarnate in another world because she is worried about you."
Hearing what Luo Lan said, Liu Dechang's face instantly darkened, and he frowned and said displeasedly:
"Don't lie to me. Your mother will definitely not be able to worry about me. She also has to think about me. If I don't miss her, then I feel sorry for her."
"Dad, my mother will miss you, but my mother also hopes that you can let go of her and live happily. Don't you always live in memories?"
"So what if I live in memories?"
Liu Dechang rubbed his neck and hummed softly:
"Your mother is the only woman in my life, Liu Dechang. I didn't see her buried with my own eyes, but she is still alive in my heart. She may come back one day."
His words made Luo Lan stunned for a while. Could it be that there was something wrong with his father's brain? According to Leng Yu, although he was not able to see his wife buried with his own eyes, the emperor also ordered that his wife be buried richly, and the people in the city were watching.
Why! Luo Lan suddenly felt that her idea of letting her father marry another wife was a bit cruel. It was rare for a father to have such deep love for his mother, so let this love stay in his heart.
So, she nodded heavily, took the lead in raising the wine glass in front of her, and said seriously:
'In that case, let Leng Yu drink more with you today. We won't go home until we get drunk. '
Hearing what she said, Liu Dechang grinned and began to exchange cups with Leng Yu.
At night, after putting Leng Yu to sleep, Luo Lan called A Cai and A Hong to her eyes. She looked at the two girls who were standing in front of her with a solemn expression.
She had never been so serious in front of them.
Ah Cai knew that she was at fault, so she kept her head lowered and did not dare to look at Luo Lan.
Ah Hong was also a little nervous. She knew that the reason why the princess asked them to come must have something to do with Ah Cai.
After pondering for a long time, Luo Lan finally couldn't help but speak,
"Acai, last time my father and the prince were drunk, I asked you to deliver sobering soup. How long did you stay in my father's room?"
Hearing her ask this, Ah Hong squeaked nervously, "I didn't... I didn't stay long."
Luo Lan knew she was lying. She raised her eyebrows and asked again:
"Ah Cai, you have been with me for half a year. I have not treated you badly in these six months, right? If any of you has stayed by my side enough, you have other thoughts that you shouldn't have, or do something that you shouldn't. If you want to find another job or want to find another job, just bring it up and I will never force you to stay."
Hearing the displeasure in her words, Ah Cai's legs suddenly softened, she knelt on her knees and cried directly:
"Princess, I was wrong. I didn't have any ulterior motives. I went to deliver hangover soup to the Duke of Guo that day. It was only because the Duke of Guo mistook me for his wife, so...that's why I stayed there for the night."
Hearing this, Luo Lan was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and slapped Ah Cai hard on the face, roaring angrily,
"You are confused. If you do this, not only will my father be ruined, but you will also lose your virginity. You are really brave."
"Princess, I was wrong, I was wrong, please punish me, I really didn't do anything."
"What else do you want to do? Ah Cai, Ah Cai, I treat you as my sister in vain. I also told you not to have inappropriate thoughts. Why don't you listen? You have also seen my father's attitude. He It is impossible to remarry. If you do this, it will only bring shame to his face. You...you really disappoint me."
"Princess, I was wrong, please punish me!"
Ah Cai kept begging for mercy, and Ah Hong was also at a loss. In their impression, this was the first time that the princess had become angry.
Ah Hong was also there pleading:
"Princess, please spare A Cai, she knows she was wrong."
Luo Lan looked at Ah Hong and asked sharply:
"You also know about this, right?"
