When she returned to Yuwang's Mansion, Liu Dechang was teaching three children kung fu, and when she came back, the three children greeted her together, calling one after another,

"Mother, you're back."

"Mother, I'll take a step."

"Mother, I'll also be able to take a horse step."

After Luo Lan touched their heads one by one, he whispered to them:

"You go play for a while, my mother and grandfather have something to say."

The children nodded in agreement, and then ran hand in hand to play games.

Liu Dechang walked over and saw that her face was not good-looking, and asked with concern:

"Lan'er, what's wrong?"

Luo Lan motioned for him to sit down at the stone table in front of him, and looked at him with a solemn face, "Dad, I met the people of Chu just now, I feel that a large number of people from Chu must have poured into the capital and want to do bad things, you should investigate this matter carefully." ”

Hearing this, Liu Dechang's forehead instantly twisted into a knot, and he asked in disbelief,

"You read that right?"

"I've already fought with them, they came to assassinate me, and then I took them over, so it's likely that the adults have brought them back."

Hearing this, Liu Dechang slapped one hand on the stone table and shouted,

"No wonder there are always people coming back recently, there are many people in the city, it turns out that these Chu people are making trouble, I'll go to Shuntianfu now."

He was about to get up, but he sat down again as if he had thought of something.

"You said that the people of Chu were going to assassinate you just now?"

Luo Lan nodded without thinking, "Yes." ”

Liu Dechang's face suddenly became nervous, he held his cheek with one hand and groaned for a while, and then said:

"During this time, don't go out at will, and don't go to Bai'an Hall, since the people of Chu didn't succeed this time, they won't give up, in order to let Leng Yu face the enemy at ease on the front line, you can't let him be distracted in the rear."

Luo Lan glanced at the child who was bouncing over there, and nodded heavily,

"Dad, I know, I'll be more careful."

At this moment, Ah Cai hurriedly ran back, she gasped and replied:

"Princess, those two...... The woman ran away. ”

Hearing this, Luo Lan's face suddenly became gloomy, and Ah Cai continued:

"When Lord Yu and I arrived, they were no longer there, but fortunately we left in time, otherwise there would have been danger."

Luo Lan felt that Ah Cai's words made sense, if there were really a few people with good kung fu at that time, she might not be able to cope with this silver needle.

Liu Dechang sighed angrily, and then stood up from the chair,

"It seems that I have to check the details of these Chu people."

Leaving these words, he walked quickly towards the gate with his hands behind his back.

"Ah Cai, make me a cup of chrysanthemum water and put some rock sugar."

She suddenly felt a bitterness in her mouth for no apparent reason.

"Yes, Princess."

Ah Cai retreated in response, and Luo Lan sat on the stone bench, holding her chin with one hand, in a daze.

After a while, a crisp and familiar voice came,

"Fourth sister-in-law, what are you thinking?"

Leng Ming's voice suddenly sounded, Luo Lan looked up, and saw that Leng Ming, who had grown into a handsome man, was squinting and tilting his head to look at her.

Luo Lan chuckled softly when she saw him, she could already see the children sharing the snacks he had brought.

He would come to Yuwangfu every few days, because every time he came, he would bring some novel gadgets or novel snacks, so those children were very sticky to him.

"Ming'er, did you bring them food again?"

Leng Ming sat opposite her, looked at the children, and replied with a chuckle:

"I'm their uncle, and the whole joy of my life is them, and I'm happier than anything else to see them happy."

Luo Lan couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckled, "You can get used to them, by the way, how are you doing?" ”

Hearing this, Leng Ming sighed directly,

"Alas, there are too many complicated errands in the Ministry of Rites, but they don't let me do it, I am tired of staying to death, and I will go back and tell my father that I will not go to the Ministry of Rites to be an errand, even if I go to be a gatekeeper,"

Looking at Leng Ming'er's embarrassed look, Luo Lan smiled helplessly, in the past few years, he has almost been to the household department, the criminal department, the ritual department, and the official department, but because he is relatively weak, and he took poison back then, which made the ministers afraid, and the emperor did not specifically explain the important task entrusted to him, he just let him go to mess around, naturally no one dared to arrange heavy work for him to do, he would be bored when he was idle.

Luo Lan's eyes were dyed with a look that seemed to be smiling, and then he said lightly:

"You are idle on these errands, why don't you go to serve in the army!"

She meant to be joking with him, but Leng Ming suddenly looked at her excitedly and nodded,

"I came this time, I want to ask the fourth sister-in-law to talk to General Liu for me, let me also go to the army to do a half-job, I can also do some kung fu, although it is not very good, but it is not bad."

Seeing that he was serious, Luo Lan looked at him in surprise,

"Do you really want to go to the army? Then you don't have the comfortable life you have now, and you can't just come to Yuwangfu, you have to act according to the rules of the army. ”

Hearing this, Leng Ming glanced at the children, but still nodded with determination,

"I'll go, but I want to wait a few days, tomorrow is my birthday, can I invite them to Mingwang's Mansion as a guest?"

Birthday?

Luo Lan's eyes rolled, yes, tomorrow is September 13, Ming'er's birthday, if he doesn't say it, she will forget.

So, she nodded without hesitation and said:

"Why don't you come to Yuwang's Mansion like every year, and I will ask someone to prepare your favorite meal for you?"

Leng Ming shook his head and refused without thinking, "No, I want to spend this year in my own Mingwang Mansion, and I only want to invite the three of them, I know that the fourth sister-in-law is busy, so I won't invite you, don't worry, I will definitely be optimistic about them." ”

Although Luo Lan felt that the three children were a little lonely to accompany Leng Ming for his birthday, seeing his resolute attitude, he did not object too much, but directly agreed:

"Okay, then it's up to you, I'll order someone to send them to King Ming's Mansion tomorrow morning."

"No, I'll pick them up, I promised to buy them gyokuro cake and hemp halva."

Hearing this, Luo Lan frowned and asked,

"So you've already discussed it, haven't you?"

Leng Ming scratched his head with his hand, and smiled a little embarrassedly:

"You guessed it again, but don't worry, fourth sister-in-law, I will definitely send them back before dark, and they also promised me that they will be obedient."

Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled helplessly, and then waved her hand to the three children, and they each came to Luo Lan with their little short legs.

Huaiyu was the first to say:

"Mother, did you promise us to go to my uncle's house tomorrow?"

An An also pouted and asked:

"Mother, we promise to be obedient and will not make Uncle angry."

Lele shook Luo Lan's arm while staring at it with big eyes and discussing,

"Mother, we promise to come back early, promise not to run around, you just let us go."

Looking at the cute little faces and expectant eyes of the three children, Luo Lan touched their heads separately, and then nodded,

"Okay, go ahead! But you must listen to Uncle, you can't be angry with him, you know? ”

The three cuties nodded heavily together, raised their hands and swore an oath,

"Don't worry, mother, we won't make Uncle Xiao angry."

After replying to her words, Luo Lan obviously saw that they were squeezing their eyes at Leng Ming, it seemed that this was what they had planned a long time ago.
