At this point, he sighed. He really wanted to say that he would work hard to get them to leave here as soon as possible.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
Because he couldn't be sure at what year or month he would be able to do it.
After Chang swallowed the mooncake in his hand, he reminded him sadly:
"Ming'er, you can't stay here for a long time, go back!"
"Mom, my father is taking a lunch break now. I will stay with you for a while."
This... was of course what Chang wanted. The reason why she urged Leng Ming to leave was because she didn't want Ming'er's whereabouts to be discovered.
"Xiao Tao, go to the door and have a look. Prince Ming and I have a few words to say."
Xiao Tao originally wanted to follow Leng Ming, but she always remembered what Leng Ming said to her when he came last time.
She finally expected him to come this time, and she wanted to have a few words of kindness with Prince Ming, but to her surprise, this Chang family actually wanted to drive her away.
Although she was reluctant, she still pursed her lips, turned around and walked towards the door in displeasure.
When only mother and daughter were left here, Mrs. Chang couldn't wait to ask:
"How is your father's health?"
"Mom, he has relegated you to the cold palace. Do you still miss her?"
Mrs. Chang shook her head hastily.
"Mother is not thinking about him, mother just wants to know how long he can sit on this throne. Mother wants to know how much time you still have to fight for."
Leng Ming sat on the stone bench next to Chang, looking at his mother with a thin face, feeling indescribable in his heart.
After pondering for a long time, he said truthfully:
"My father is in good health and has handed over the affairs of the court to Leng Yu. He is happy to be quiet and hides in Furong Palace every day to be happy."
"Furong Palace?"
Chang repeated these three words and couldn't wait to ask:
"Is this the palace where the woman named Li lives?"
"Yes, with the help of Shui Luolan, she has won the favor of her father. He has been staying in Furong Palace for several days recently."
Mentioning Shui Luolan, Chang's teeth clenched loudly. The moment he clenched his fists, he cursed angrily:
"Was it Shui Luolan again? I will let this woman die sooner or later."
Seeing his mother say such hateful words to Shui Luolan, Leng Ming sighed and comforted softly:
"Mom, don't be excited. Some things are not all her fault. Besides...besides, I also plan to...plan to marry her sister Liu Luoxue."
"What?"
As if she had been stung by something, Ms. Chang stood up from her stool and stared at him in astonishment.
"Ming'er, what did you say? Do you want to marry Liu Dechang's daughter?"
Leng Ming glanced in the direction of Xiao Tao and saw her engrossed in eating the moon cake in her hand. He hurriedly pulled her sleeves.
"Mom, don't be so excited? Now I want to marry, but she doesn't want to marry yet. Besides, if you want to live a good life in the cold palace for a few days, you have to take advantage of Xiaotao temporarily. Don't let her hear about it."
Mrs. Chang sat back on the stool, her face darkened, and she asked with cold eyes:
"Ming'er, both Shui Luolan and Leng Yu are my mother's enemies. If you are thinking about how to avenge my mother, how can you marry Shui Luolan's sister? Besides, Liu Dechang is already used by Leng Yu, even if you marry him His daughter, you can’t get help from him! Mother doesn’t agree with this matter. You are the prince of Daning Kingdom. Even if you marry, you can marry a foreign princess, which will increase your strength. "
"But...but I like her."
"When it comes to getting married, you have to use your status to expand your own strength. What's the use of just liking it? Which woman in the harem really likes the emperor? None of them. They are not just trying to climb high. Do you want to realize your dream of prosperity and wealth?"
"Mom, I'm different from others. I just want to find the woman I like and spend the rest of my life with her."
"Confused..."
Chang was suddenly a little annoyed. She glared at Leng Ming, with a flash of anger in her eyes, and persuaded her again:
"If you want to save your mother, just listen to her and don't be emotional. Otherwise, you will never achieve anything great in your life."
"But……"
Mrs. Chang waved her hands impatiently.
"It's nothing, but you have been weak-tempered since you were born. It is simply unrealistic for you to live a life where you don't argue or speak out. Mom has taught you several times, but she still hasn't understood it. This is because she is incompetent. Now that you have grown up, Now that you can distinguish right from wrong, mother hopes that as the prince of Daning Kingdom, you will not give up such a good opportunity when you have the opportunity to fight for it. This is also the only way you can save mother, do you understand?"
"mother……"
Leng Ming looked at his mother, who had a few white hairs growing on her forehead, and felt heartbroken.
"Okay, let's go. If you don't listen to me, don't come to see me again. Just let me live alone here!"
After leaving these words, she turned her face to one side, deliberately not looking at Leng Ming.
"mother……"
Leng Ming hesitated several times. He could promise his mother about other things, but he didn't want to give up on marrying Luo Xue.
Besides, Fifth Brother has paved the way for him, and he doesn't want to miss this opportunity.
So he lowered his eyelids and whispered:
"Mom, I can promise you anything, but I can't promise you a wife."
When Mrs. Chang heard this sentence, a trace of pain appeared in her eyes. She sneered and waved her hand.
"Let's go! Don't come to see me again. You won't have me as a mother in the future."
"mother……"
"Do not call me."
Mrs. Chang suddenly raised her voice. Xiao Tao, who was sitting at the door, was frightened. She ran over in a hurry, looked at Leng Ming who was standing up, and asked in a low voice:
"What...what's going on?"
Leng Ming did not look at Xiao Tao, but took out a silver coin from his sleeve and said sadly:
"Take good care of my mother and keep this money."
He stuffed the silver into Xiaotao's arms, turned around, and walked toward the door with long strides.
"Your Majesty, I have something else to say to you, Your Majesty..."
Xiao Tao chased after him, but Leng Ming didn't look back. He opened the door directly, crossed the threshold, and left without any nostalgia.
Looking at his back, Xiao Tao stamped her feet angrily. After closing the door, she turned back and muttered to Mrs. Chang:
"Empress, why did you make Prince Ming angry? I still have something to say to her."
Mrs. Chang just glared at Xiao Tao and did not talk to her about the matter any further. At this time, no matter how angry she was, she would not dare to attack this girl Xiao Tao. All her living expenses in the cold palace were paid for by Xiao Tao. Even if she wanted to buy something or know something about the palace, she could only go through Xiao Tao. Therefore, she didn't want to anger Xiao Tao, and she didn't dare to anger her.
After Leng Ming walked out of the cold palace, his mood was extremely bad.
He couldn't understand why all the bad things happened to him?
His mother was imprisoned in the cold palace and lived like a living dead, but there was nothing he could do.
The woman he likes doesn't like him at all, or in other words, she liked him before but doesn't like him now.
Apart from his identity as Prince Ming, there is no one available to him except the few servant girls in Prince Ming's Mansion.
He was so different from Leng Yu and Leng Xi.
Thinking of this, he slapped himself bitterly, and at the same time, a contemptuous and cold voice reached his ears.
"What's wrong with my sixth brother? Do you feel uncomfortable seeing your mother suffering in the cold palace?"
