Luo Lan also echoed there,

"Your Majesty is right. Your mother-in-law's illness is probably caused by too much resentment accumulated in her body. Maybe she will be cured after returning to the palace to rest for a while."

Yu'er stood there hesitantly. Seeing this, Lele also persuaded:

"Uncle, please come back with us. I am very bored in the palace. If you go back, we will have a companion together."

After pondering for a long time, Yu'er nodded,

"Then I will go back to the palace first, and then I will come back when my mother-in-law's health is better."

Seeing that he agreed, Lele immediately looked at Leng Yu and Luo Lan happily.

"Father, mother, let's go back to the palace early tomorrow morning!"

Seeing how excited he was, Leng Yu frowned and looked at him,

"Tomorrow morning, let's go burn incense to our ancestors and then return to the palace."

After Yu'er nodded, he saluted again and said:

"Then I will go and inform my mother's servants to pack up my things and leave first."

"I'll go with you and help you pack your things."

Lele followed Yu'er and went out together.

Leng Yu then looked at Luo Lan,

"How is Mrs. Li's illness? Is it serious?"

She just had a face-to-face meeting with Mrs. Li, and she had no chance to check her pulse. Therefore, she only saw her condition on the surface.

She nodded in response,

"It looks very heavy and crazy."

Leng Yu frowned and asked,

"Is it really caused by evil?"

"I don't know, it's possible. There's a lot of yin here in the imperial mausoleum. If you're weak and come here, it's possible that you might be contaminated with something weird."

Leng Yu sighed softly,

"It seems that we have come to the right place this time. If Mrs. Li becomes seriously ill in the imperial mausoleum, then I, the emperor, will feel ashamed of my father."

"What should we do about the imperial mausoleum? Check it or not?"

"As long as this matter has nothing to do with Yu'er, there is no need to investigate further. There are many such forces in the world. We can't destroy them without reason. Just ask people to keep an eye on them. As long as they don't harm the people, I can open the door. Close one eye."

"If they don't harm the people now, how can they guarantee that they will threaten the imperial court when their power becomes stronger in the future?"

"If tens of thousands of people can threaten the imperial court, then I don't want to take the throne."

After saying this, he stood up and said solemnly:

"This is my first time staying overnight in the imperial mausoleum. Come on, accompany me for a walk outside and enjoy the surrounding night scene..."

Although Luo Lan was a little wary of the mysterious force surrounding the imperial mausoleum, seeing that he was not worried about it, she also felt that her worries were unnecessary.

She stood up, took his hand, followed him, and walked outside...

……

Early the next morning, it was Mid-Autumn Festival.

Leng Yu took Yu'er and Lele to lay incense on the ancestor's tablet, and then went straight to the capital.

This morning, Mrs. Li was in good condition. Before setting off, she greeted Luo Lan as usual.

Sitting in the carriage, A Cai pursed her lips in confusion and muttered,

"I act like a good person during the day, but turn into another person at night. This is really strange. Could it be that I am possessed by a ghost?"

Luo Lan shook his head in confusion.

"There are some things that I can't explain. Maybe she is weak and got something dirty."

"Empress, please stay away from her at night after returning to the palace. She will hit anyone she sees, so as not to hurt you. No, I have to ask a few more people to guard Fengyi Palace, and a few more people to watch her..."

A Cai seemed a little anxious when it came to Mrs. Li.

But it's no wonder, the harem has always been peaceful and peaceful, and if a crazy person suddenly appears, anyone will feel uncomfortable.

It was already evening when the group of them arrived at the palace. Luo Lan arranged for Concubine Li to stay in Furong Palace, a place she was familiar with.

Yu'er's palace is adjacent to Lele's, in order to make it easier for the two children to be together.

Concubine Li did not attend the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner. Luo Lan ordered someone to bring her several delicious meals. It is said that her mood was quite good, at least much better than when she was at the imperial mausoleum.

In order to treat Concubine Li, Leng Yu ordered people to invite the eminent monk from Lingyin Temple to perform the treatment. The eminent monk showed Concubine Li and later stated that Concubine Li was possessed by the soul of a certain empress who died with resentment in the imperial mausoleum. If she was not removed from Mrs. Li's body as soon as possible, she would die soon.

In the end, the solution given by the eminent monk was to do the practice in the harem for seven, seven and forty-nine days to expel the evil spirits that had invaded her body.

In order to cure Mrs. Li's illness, Leng Yu made the right decision.

Therefore, since the Mid-Autumn Festival, the calming sound of wooden fish and the chanting of monks can be heard from the harem from time to time...

Two months later

Furong Rong

Concubine Li sat on the soft couch with a calm face. The girl squeezed her legs and whispered:

"The young prince and the prince have a great time playing together. They often practice martial arts together and learn to read together."

"That's good, how's it going over there?"

"all the best!"

"Well, I've put in so much effort, so I can't be negligent..."

"Don't worry, everything will be carried out according to your instructions. Master Nie sent a message to you to resolve the palace affairs as soon as possible. We will wait for your notification at any time..."

"I know……"

An evil look flashed in Mrs. Li's eyes.

At this moment, someone outside reported back:

"Taifei, the young prince is here."

Mrs. Li quickly sat upright and waved to the girl beside her.

"Go out and watch, don't let anyone in."

The girl nodded and walked out. At the same time, Yu'er came to Mrs. Li and bowed to her.

"Concubine, your name is Erchen?"

Concubine Li glanced at Yu'er and nodded,

"Yu'er, are you still adapting to life in the palace?"

"Well, it's good. I just feel like it's not as quiet as the Imperial Tomb. I want to come and discuss it with you. Once your health recovers, I'll go back to the Imperial Tomb..."

"Yu'er..."

Concubine Li interrupted him,

"You have guarded the imperial tomb for six years, that's enough."

"But I said at the beginning that I would guard it for ten years."

"What's the point of guarding the dead? If you have that skill, it's better to guard the living."

Yu'er looked up at her in confusion,

"Concubine, what do you mean?"

Mrs. Li looked at him solemnly with shrewd eyes,

"Yu'er, although you are only ten years old, your mind is far beyond that of your peers. Therefore, you should understand what the mother-in-law says. We returned to the palace early this time. The mother-in-law put a lot of thought into it. If you ask again If you go back, you will have wasted your mother and concubine pretending to be crazy and stupid for so long."

Yu'er's eyes widened and he looked at her as if he didn't understand.

"Concubine, you...what do you mean by this? Did you just say that you were pretending to be crazy? Could it be that...you weren't really sick before, were you just pretending?"

Concubine Li sneered lightly at the corner of her mouth,

"Yes, my concubine is doing this all for you. Don't go against my concubine's wishes."

Yu'er looked at her with disbelief, shook his head, and asked,

"Mother concubine, why is this? Why do you lie? Why do you want me to be a person who breaks my word? You know how much trouble the emperor and the empress have put into because you pretended to be sick. Why do you do this? "
