Concubine Chang's words silenced the emperor. Since ancient times, emperors have always been suspicious. This Shui Luolan is really a suspicious person. There are indeed too many things about her that are puzzling.

Even if she is the daughter of a rich family in the city, she shouldn't know so much. She is the first woman in Daning who understands medicine, she is also the first person who can dance while playing the pipa, and she can write poems People, she is the first again, and according to the reports of servants, the poems she sang out of her mouth have been well known by the common people and have been recited by others.

Her tone of voice and way of doing things didn't look like a country woman at all. As the emperor, he had doubts about this for a long time, but he never doubted her identity, and even had several times of personal contact with her.

Thinking of this, the emperor suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. If she was a spy sent by the enemy country, then he might have been assassinated by her many times.

He couldn't help thinking that the reason why the woman didn't do anything to him before was because she didn't find a way out. It seemed that this time, he had to investigate this woman carefully.

Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh, and said slowly:

"Then give her three days to see what she will do, but I want you to go and see Yu'er, I have to know whether he is dead or alive, he is my son after all, even if I ban him foot, but I don’t want him to die unexpectedly.”

After saying this, a gloomy and lonely look flashed in the emperor's eyes.

Concubine Chang Gui slightly bowed her body and replied:

"The concubine understands that the concubine will definitely find a chance to see Yu'er, but the concubine thinks that since that Shui Luolan approached Yu Wang's mansion for other purposes, she will not harm Yu'er. Yu'er is just her approaching the emperor. She will take good care of Yu'er, so please rest assured, Your Majesty."

What she said inside and outside the words reminded the emperor that Shui Luolan's entry into Prince Yu's mansion was just to get close to the emperor, so as to achieve the purpose of assassinating the emperor.

The emperor stood on the spot, although his hands were behind his back, he had already clenched his fists.

He should have thought a long time ago that Shui Luolan married Yu'er for another purpose. Which beautiful woman would marry a half-dead man?Which yellow flower girl is willing to stay a widow for the rest of her life?More importantly, she has abilities that ordinary people don't have. Such a woman is by no means a woman with a simple background. How can she be willing to stay by the side of the grounded Leng Yu?

Thinking of this, the emperor was a little annoyed. He admitted in his heart that he had been deceiving himself a little before. He was once happy that Leng Yu could marry a woman like her, but he forgot that she had other purposes.

Lengxi broke into the imperial study room, Concubine Chang's lips flickered with disdain for his reckless behavior.

The emperor frowned unhappily when he saw Lengxi's furious look,

"It doesn't look like that, how did Concubine Li discipline you?"

Lengxi glanced at Concubine Chang Gui who was standing there, cupped her fists and bowed to the emperor:

"Father, my son is in a hurry, so...that's why I didn't pay attention to my words and deeds, please punish me."

The emperor covered his mouth and coughed lightly, returned to the dragon case and sat down, waved to Concubine Chang Gui and said:

"You go down first!"

Concubine Chang Gui frowned lightly, bowed her body and saluted, "The concubine will leave."

Seeing her leave the door of the imperial study, Leng Xi couldn't wait to say:

"Father, I heard that someone has doubts about Princess Yu's identity? My son expresses dissatisfaction with this."

Hearing his unreasonable words, the emperor looked him up and down with stern eyes, and then asked,

"Haven't you always claimed that you don't ask about royal affairs? Why do you suddenly care about this matter?"

Lengxi pursed her lips, clasped her fists and said righteously:

"Father, I want to say something on behalf of Princess Yu. I feel that no matter whether she is that country girl or not, at least for now, she has not done anything unfavorable to Fourth Brother, nor has she done anything out of line. It's just that if she knows more things, it will make people suspicious, and my son thinks this is unfair to her, and I hope my father will see it clearly."

The emperor patiently listened to him finish, and then said indifferently:

"That woman is really good at tricks. Even you, a prodigal prince, was sold by her. It seems that I really have to investigate her origin and purpose."

Hearing the emperor's words, Lengxi's heart suddenly skipped a beat. It seemed that Concubine Chang Gui had already informed her father of this matter just now, and her father believed her words.

His eyes rolled vigorously, and just as he was about to continue speaking, the emperor stopped him with a wave of his hand.

"Don't talk about it anymore. I will investigate this matter, so don't meddle in it. If you have the time, do something serious and don't just idle around all day."

After saying this, he waved his hands impatiently, "Back off!"

Lengxi, among the many princes, he was most disappointed in him.

He has always been rebellious, but he doesn't care about the affairs of the royal family. To put it mildly, he has a free and easy personality. To put it harshly, he just doesn't make progress.

Therefore, he doesn't like this son, and naturally he won't listen to his words.

Seeing that her father's face was a bit ugly, Leng Xi consciously clasped her fists in salute, then took a few steps back, then turned around and left the imperial study.

He didn't understand why the emperor didn't like him?He pretends not to ask about royal affairs, isn't it because he wants to avoid creating rifts with the royal brothers?He is not interested in the throne, he just wants to have an ordinary brotherhood, is this also wrong?

When he came to Liyuan, the maids were rubbing Concubine Li's shoulders and back, seeing him coming in, Concubine Li waved her hand, and these maids retreated knowingly.

Lengxi sat across from Concubine Li, picked up the pastry on the table and took a bite, then threw it down angrily.

"what happened?"

Concubine Li looked at him like this, and asked unhurriedly:

"Who messed with my Xi'er?"

After Lengxi swallowed the pastry in his mouth, he let out a long sigh,

"Mother, tell me, did Concubine Chang deliberately target Shui Luolan? Fortunately, she still gave her such an expensive gift at her birthday banquet, why didn't she appreciate it at all?"

Hearing what he said, Concubine Li looked at her in confusion, "Where did you come from?"

Only then did Lengxi sit upright, and said to Concubine Li, shaking her arms:

"I don't know who falsely accused Shui Luolan of being a fake in front of Concubine Chang Gui. Concubine Chang stabbed this matter in front of Emperor Father. I wanted to plead for her. Unexpectedly, Emperor Father was a The impatient look knocked me out, you said..."

"and many more……"

Concubine Li interrupted him without listening to him, frowning and questioning, "You said someone doubted Princess Yu's identity? Then you go to your father to intercede for her?"

Lengxi blinked a few times, nodded,

"Yes, but Royal Father..."

"You are confused..."

Before Lengxi finished speaking, Concubine Li raised her finger and pointed at him angrily:

"This matter has nothing to do with you, why do you want to get involved?"

"Why is it irrelevant? She is my Fourth Emperor's Wife, she is not a bad person, and after she came, Prince Yu's Mansion was considered popular. Why does someone doubt her identity when she has more skills?"
