Concubine Li's words made the emperor stop the steps that he was just about to walk out of the house.

He looked back at her, and asked back with a calm face:

"What were you talking about?"

Seeing that the emperor was very concerned about this matter, Concubine Li was overjoyed, took two steps forward, and replied:

"The concubine said that there are two people from the Chu State living in this Yu Wang's mansion, and it is possible that they are from the palace of the Chu State."

"How do you know?"

The emperor looked at Concubine Li with suspicious eyes, frowned and continued to ask:

"What evidence do you have? How do you know that they are from the Imperial Palace of the Chu State? ”

Seeing the suspicion in the emperor's eyes, Concubine Li hurriedly explained:

"If you go back to the emperor, a few days ago, when Mama Lu left the palace, she met several officials in the military camp at the tea stall, and they said privately that when Yu'er and Lan'er returned to the capital, they brought two Chu people back, and their identities were not ordinary, one of them had a woman who looked very similar to Princess Yu, outsiders couldn't tell the difference, and they stayed in Yuwang's mansion......"

Concubine Li's words made the emperor's face sink vigilantly, he paced back, sat back in his chair, and asked in a fierce voice:

"Is there any evidence for what you say?"

"Yes, just now Mama Lu saw those two Chu people in the backyard, and one of them really looks exactly like Princess Yu, and ...... And according to Mama Lu's inquiry, their relationship with Liu Dechang, the protector of the country, is also very unusual. ”

Hearing this, the emperor's pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyebrows were full of coldness.

The people of Chu are the dirt of Daning, and he will not allow a Chu person to stay in Daning.

Thinking of this, he suddenly waved his hand and scolded loudly:

"Someone, call Lord Yu."

After Liu Xi received the order, he hurriedly went to call Leng Yu, and Concubine Li glanced at the girl standing not far away, and the girl nodded knowingly and quietly withdrew.

At this time, Leng Yu and Luo Lan were lying on the bed together, looking at the top of the bed, and whispering,

Leng Yu stroked Luo Lan's hair and said softly:

"If it weren't for the emperor, it would be rare for me to have this leisure, I can hold my beloved Lan'er, lie on the bed and take a nap, but I always feel a little uneasy and can't sleep?"

"Is Xianggong worried about my mother and Xena? Don't worry, I've ordered Ah Cai and Ah Hong to take turns in the backyard, and if there is any movement, let's make plans as soon as possible. ”

"I'm afraid they won't give us time to make plans! No, I'd better check it out. ”

As he spoke, he was about to sit up, but Luo Lan hurriedly grabbed him,

"Xianggong, you also said, it's rare to have a chance to lie down for a while, don't worry about this matter first, I'll take a look later."

"But ......"

"It's nothing, my mother and Xena don't come out of the house, everyone in our house keeps their mouths shut, there will be no problem, you can rest assured."

Of course, Leng Yu didn't want to have a problem, he nodded and lay down again, "Okay, tomorrow the emperor will take Concubine Li and Concubine Li out of the city to enjoy the lotus, and then you will find a way to place them in a safe place, and when the emperor and they leave, it will be fine, I am really worried that Concubine Li came this time because she had other plans......"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock at the door,

"Lord Wang, the emperor sent you over."

This was Ah Gang's voice, Leng Yu's brows tightened instantly, and Luo Lan also sat up with him alertly,

"Xianggong, we just came back from the emperor, and now he has passed you over, don't sleep at noon? Something must be going on. ”

Leng Yu put on his shoes on the ground and instructed:

"You hurry up and go to the backyard, settle your mother and Xena, and don't be found at this time, otherwise you will be implicated along with your father."

After Leng Yu said this, Luo Lan also felt that something was wrong with this matter, she hurriedly got out of bed, and after Leng Yu left, she pulled off her coat and went straight to the backyard.

As soon as she arrived in the backyard, the girl Caidie greeted her.

"Princess, the slave maid just heard in the front yard, Concubine Li and the emperor said, there are two Chu people living in our house, what do you think about this?"

Caidie's words made Luo Lan's expression instantly nervous, and she wrinkled her brows and waved her hand,

"I know, you go to the Yongdao side now to see if the emperor is coming here, remember to notify me at any time."

After Caidie received the order, she quickly walked to the side of the corridor, and Luo Lan was also busy rushing to Xina and Xiaoling's room.

As soon as she entered the backyard, Ah Cai and Ah Hong greeted her together, Ah Hong blinked her eyes a few times not far away, and reminded in a low voice:

"Princess, over there...... It's the people in the palace, it seems to be the people around Concubine Li, they are staring at the room of Mrs. and Second Miss, what should I do? ”

Luo Lan followed Ah Hong's gaze, and sure enough, she saw two people standing with their hands hanging under the eaves not far away, and their eyes swept to the room where Xina and her mother were from time to time.

Her waterfall-like eyes flashed with a sharp gaze like an eagle, and then she whispered to Ah Cai and Ah Hong:

"You're staring here, I'll go see my mother and Xena......"

After saying this, she raised her feet and walked towards the room where Xena and her mother were.

Although the two of them were in two rooms, they only walked through one main entrance, or more precisely, they lived in one suite, so that they could talk to each other in their leisure time and avoid boredom.

When Leng Yu hurried to the main hall, he saw the emperor sitting there with an ugly face, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted:

"Father, what is the important matter for you to summon your sons?"

The emperor's face was pale, the corners of his mouth trembled, and he asked in an angry voice:

"I heard that there are two Chu people living in your Yuwang Mansion? Is there such a thing? ”

As soon as he said this, Leng Yu's heart suddenly twitched.

It seems that he guessed correctly, and his father knew about Xena and Xina's mother.

He hurriedly clenched his fists and denied:

"Father's words, Erchen doesn't understand, how can there be Chu people in the Yuwang Mansion Erchen? Who are you listening to behind the scenes? ”

Seeing that he didn't want to admit it, Concubine Li's sinister eyes flashed there, and the corners of her mouth snorted softly,

"Choreography? Yu'er, how can you talk like that? I told the emperor this, I did this for your own good, you are also the protector general of Daning Kingdom, the prince of Daning under one person and above ten thousand people, although because you made a big mistake, the emperor took your crown prince, but did not punish you, why don't you be grateful? Do you want to keep the people of Chu in Yuwangfu? I just advised the emperor not to be careful, if you leave the people of Chu in the palace, you will not want to join forces with the people of Chu, but you are just confused for a while. ”

Her seemingly well-intentioned remarks undoubtedly made matters worse, and the emperor's face became even more gloomy because of this.

He looked at Leng Yu, clenched his fists, and asked word by word:

"Are there any people from Chu in your Yuwang Mansion?"

Leng Yu raised his voice without thinking about it and replied:

"No, there are no people from Chu in the Yuwang Mansion of Erchen, please ask your father to learn from it."

Seeing that he still didn't admit it, Concubine Li snorted coldly, leaned over and said:

"Your Majesty, since Yu'er refuses to admit it, she must have been kept in the dark and didn't know about it, so it's better to take you to see it in person, and the truth will be revealed."

Regarding Concubine Li's proposal, the emperor thought for a while and nodded,

"Okay, I'm not the emperor of the clouds, Concubine Li, lead the way ahead, I want to see if there are any Chu people in your palace."
