Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

Lengxi returned directly to the capital in the early morning of the next day, and it took five days to go back and forth. During these five days, Concubine Li sent people everywhere to look for him like crazy. She sent people to assassinate Long Xiaomin , arrived in the capital one step ahead of Lengxi.

Dressed in eunuch clothes, he came to Concubine Li, clasped his fists and saluted:

"Your Majesty, the slave is guilty, the mission failed..."

"waste."

Concubine Li was suddenly furious, "Wang Meng, you can't do such a small thing well, how can you achieve great things in the future?"

"Princess, please calm down. When we were about to succeed, Lord Xi arrived. In order to avoid being discovered by Lord Xi, and to avoid hurting him by mistake, we decided to retreat temporarily."

"Xi'er went to Quancheng?"

Concubine Li looked at Wang Meng with disbelief, "Can you see clearly? Is it Xi'er?"

Wang Meng clasped his fists and bowed in salute, "It's true, it's Lord Xi, and he even blocked an arrow for Long Xiaomin, otherwise we would have succeeded."

"He blocked the arrow for Long Xiaomin? Was he injured?"

"That's not..."

Only then did Concubine Li let out a long sigh of relief, "It's okay, I said why I couldn't find him for a few days, so he ran to Quancheng."

Speaking of this, her eyes flickered a few times, and she continued:

"Did Xi'er come back? Did he find out it was you?"

Wang Meng hurriedly shook his head vigorously, "We were all masked at the time, Lord Xi didn't recognize me, after we came out of Longwu Villa, we didn't dare to stay longer, but he didn't seem to come back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Madam Lu walked in quickly, "Your Majesty, Lord Xi is here."

Hearing this, Concubine Li frowned, and said coldly:

"Let him in."

Then she said to Wang Meng:

"You go down first, and I will tell you how to do it later."

After Wang Meng nodded and saluted, he turned and walked towards the door.

When meeting Leng Xi head-on, he cupped his fists and bowed in salute, "Lord Xi..."

Lengxi didn't bother to look at him, but stopped him when he raised his foot and was about to leave.

"Wang Meng?"

Wang Meng hurriedly stood still, lowered his head and replied:

"Is something wrong with Lord Xi?"

Lengxi turned around and walked slowly to his side, frowned and sized him up, then suddenly raised her hand, and patted him on the right shoulder, this unexpected move startled Wang Meng, he clenched his teeth and straightened his mouth Li whispered:

"My lord, what is this doing?"

Lengxi sized him up, then nodded, "It's okay, let's go down."

With Lengxi's permission, Wang Meng walked quickly to the door as if he was receiving an amnesty. Lengxi looked at his back with narrowed eyes.

Although he felt that the man in black at Longwu Villa was somewhat similar to Wang Meng, his shoulder was not injured, so he should be able to queue up for him.

But what he didn't know was that Wang Meng walked out of Li Yuan gritted his teeth, the wound on his body was slapped by Lengxi, and the pain was piercing.

Wang Meng knew that Lengxi was trying to test him on purpose, so he could only grit his teeth and stand upright until he walked out of Liyuan's door, then he covered his shoulders and left quickly.

Leng Xi came in front of Concubine Li, before he could speak, Concubine Li yelled at him directly:

"Your Majesty!"

Although Lengxi didn't know why, he knelt down in front of Concubine Li, clasped his fists and asked:

"Mother and concubine, what's wrong with my son?"

Concubine Li stood up from the soft couch, walked slowly to him, frowned and asked,

"Xi'er, you really disappointed my mother and concubine. I asked you to take advantage of your father's serious illness to stay with him for a few more days. You are fine. You ran away without a trace. Where did you go?"

Leng Xi hesitated for a moment, straightened his neck and replied:

"I'm going to find Long Xiaomin."

He specially emphasized the words Long Xiaomin, because he wanted to see the reaction of the concubine mother.

Sure enough, seeing him speak the woman's name without hesitation, Concubine Li immediately pointed at him angrily and shouted:

"Long Xiaomin, Long Xiaomin, does she have magical powers? Hooked your soul away? Do you know that now is a very critical time. Didn't you see that Leng Yu and Liu Luolan are raising her all day long?" Are you staying in Xindian? They just want to take this opportunity to win the trust of the emperor, if you don't work hard now, what chance do you have?"

Lengxi lowered her head, her mind was full of the scene of Long Xiaomin's assassination, she didn't care to listen to Li Fei's reprimand.

"Did you hear me at all?"

Li Fei suddenly raised her voice and asked loudly.

Lengxi raised her sad eyes to look at her, and questioned her word by word,

"Mother and Concubine, is this the Longwu Villa you sent someone to?"

His words made Concubine Li stunned for a moment, then she frowned and replied:

"Where is Longwu Villa?"

The corners of Lengxi's mouth curled slightly, and he lowered his eyebrows and said coldly:

"Someone wants to kill Long Xiaomin, I only told you her name, concubine mother, I can't think of anyone else."

"presumptuous."

Concubine Li's face suddenly turned pale, she kept panting heavily, and said sternly while pacing back and forth:

"Are you suspicious of your concubine mother?"

"I dare not..."

"Then what are you doing? Although my concubine does not want you to marry that folk woman, she will not be reduced to the point of killing people. Someone must be obstructing you and trying to hit you, so you are the only one who climbed to the top Position, so that no one will try to harm you, and you will be able to protect the people you want to protect."

Concubine Li's words stunned Leng Xi for a moment, he looked up at Concubine Li, and asked in a disturbed voice:

"If I really become the emperor, can I make Long Xiaomin my queen?"

Concubine Li's eyes darkened for a moment, then she shook her head, "No, but you can let her be your imperial concubine."

Concubine Li is smart, just now, she suddenly changed her mind, since other things can't arouse Lengxi's confidence in seizing the throne, then use this Long Xiaomin to stimulate him.

Lengxi stood up from the ground, facing Concubine Li, said in a sense of loss:

"Then can I make her my side concubine now?"

The corner of Li Fei's mouth tugged slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, then sighed and shook her head:

"Once your father dies and Leng Yu becomes the emperor, you will be stuck in his throat like a thorn. Do you think he will let you threaten him and let you go? He will think you are in the way, directly removed you."

Li Fei's words hit Leng Xi's heart like a heavy hammer. He clenched his fists and said sadly:

"Could it be that the final result between our brothers and sisters can only be torn apart? Kill each other?"

Seeing that he was a little depressed, Concubine Li raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder, softly comforting him:

"Xi'er, the weak eat the strong, this is an unchanging truth. Since ancient times, brothers have killed each other for the throne. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your mother and concubine. You don't want your Mother and concubine go to be buried with your father after his death?"

Funeral?What a terrible thing this is!

Lengxi lowered her head and replied with a cold expression:

"My son knows. If the mother and concubine are fine, my son will leave first."

After leaving these words, he took big steps and walked outside Liyuan.

He didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, his mood was very complicated, he wanted Long Xiaomin, he wanted to protect her, he wanted to marry her home, but as a prince, he didn't even have the ability to do this.

After leaving Liyuan, he went straight to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Maybe what the concubine mother said was right, he should go to his father's side to fulfill his filial piety, at least let him know that his son is alive.

When he came outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he saw Leng Yu talking to Liu Xi, and he suddenly changed his face and appeared in front of Leng Yu.

"Fourth brother..."

When Leng Yu saw him, he frowned and asked,

"Where have you been these few days? How come you haven't even seen anyone?"
