Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

Luo Lan took the bowl in his hand, glanced at it and nodded,

"Okay, Eunuch Liu is waiting here, I will come as soon as I go."

"Will the results come out in a while?"

"Okay, it's not complicated to check this thing, Eunuch Liu just wait for me for a while."

"That's great."

Liu Xi nodded happily, and after Luo Lan left, he turned around and complained to Leng Yu:

"Originally, this old slave didn't want to bother Princess Yu, so as to save you from worrying about it, but the imperial doctor in the palace is not allowed to do it, and I'm afraid that there will be too many people in the palace who will spread this matter to Concubine Li's ears. Shock the grass and scare the snake."

Leng Yu hurriedly motioned him to sit down, poured him a cup of tea,

"For Lan'er, this little matter is easy to grasp. In the future, Eunuch Liu can just come if he has something to do."

"Well, the people I trust the most now are you guys. By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be three days later. I don't know how the discussion between Prince Yu and officials from the Ministry of Rites is going. The emperor asked the old slave to ask you, the old slave these days Never had a chance to see you."

"It's almost the same. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, my father ordered it to be more grand. I ordered people to bring in high-quality flowers from Hainan to decorate the imperial garden. There are also some rare fruits. The ministers with their families prepare their own talents..."

Liu Xi shook his head while waving his hands,

"That's not what I said..."

Seeing Liu Xi's expression, Leng Yu looked at him understandingly, nodded and replied:

"Eunuch Liu, don't worry, I have ordered the guards in the palace to make all the preparations. In addition, Xiao Lingzi and others will also enter the palace to escort them. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, those who do not have an invitation post will not be allowed to enter. I believe it will not Let those who are interested get in."

Eunuch Liu still exhorted with some worries:

"Last time when the second lady was lost, I felt that someone must be targeting you. This Mid-Autumn Festival, if someone wants to make trouble and trouble you, it is a good opportunity. You have to be more careful."

Leng Yu knew that Eunuch Liu was kindly reminding him, so he nodded gratefully,

"Well, your worry is exactly what I'm thinking about. I have sent someone to investigate the matter of An'an's loss, but there is no result yet, but don't worry, this matter will come to light sooner or later. When the time comes, evil people will naturally have evil rewards."

"This is the best way, the old slave can't help you with anything else, just take care of yourself."

"Don't say that, you are helping me a lot by taking care of my father. My father's temperament is ups and downs. If you weren't always by my side and reminded him all the time, maybe I wouldn't There is today."

"Your Majesty Yu, please don't say that. If you say this, you will disgrace the old slave. The old slave has been with the emperor since he was a child. The emperor's character is the most accurate for the old slave. The old slave is here today. There is another sentence To say."

"Eunuch Liu, please tell me, you watched me grow up, I believe what you say."

Liu Xi nodded, and continued with a serious face:

"If Prince Yu believes in the words of this old slave, please feel at ease to be your regent, and report to the emperor on time, big and small matters in the court, ask him to make decisions on major matters, and let him take the lead in everything. In this way, you can be stable in Daning Kingdom. Sitting under one person and over ten thousand people, the position of regent, remember, even if the emperor asks you to take over the throne, you should not agree to it. You didn’t take this position when the emperor was in poor health. Now his health is getting worse. It's better, you can't pick it up anymore, the emperor is a suspicious person..."

Speaking of this, Liu Xi paused for a moment, and continued to speak seriously:

"Does Prince Yu understand what this old slave means?"

Leng Yu didn't expect that Liu Xi would say these things to him when he came today.

He nodded approvingly,

"I understand what you mean. You are afraid that the emperor will test me, right?"

Liu Xi nodded with a serious face,

"Now in Daning Kingdom, you are the only one who can cause a big storm. Since ancient times, no emperor has sat on the throne and stepped down voluntarily. The emperor is also the same. The old slave has recently understood his current state. He just I don't want to spend too much time dealing with government affairs, but I also want to enjoy his status as emperor. If you can satisfy him, he will naturally be willing to give you the right. However, there are some things that you can't do alone. You should discuss with him more. Let him feel the importance of him in your heart, that's all."

Liu Xi's words gave Leng Yu a sense of enlightenment. In the past, he always felt that there were some trivial matters that he didn't need to tell his father to save him from worrying about them. Now it seems that he thought things too simply.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said:

"Thank you, Eunuch Liu, for your reminder. If Lan'er hadn't stopped me, I would have planned to resign from the post of regent with my father. Now that you have said this, I don't think it should be done."

"At the beginning, the emperor had this idea, and it was a decision made after a long time of consideration. There are not many people he can trust in Daning Kingdom. Even the existing princes, he doesn't trust him. Fortunately, you are not here. The emperor has just recovered. Haoshi mentioned this matter to the emperor, otherwise, he will be even more annoyed, don't you know the emperor? He is a person who puts the emperor's power above all else. Before he wanted to do this, he had thought about it for a long time. Time, fortunately you managed the court in an orderly manner, and you did not forget to report to him from time to time. He is quite satisfied with you, so he has already tacitly agreed in his heart that you are the candidate for the future emperor, but it will wait until a hundred years from now..."

Leng Yu listened to Liu Xi's words with a serious face, it seems that his previous decision to refuse to accept the throne was correct.

He cupped his fists to thank Liu Xi and said:

"Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books. After you say this, I know what to do."

"Hahaha……"

Liu Xi suddenly raised his head and smiled, "Prince Yu, this old slave didn't say anything, just gossiping."

Leng Yu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled and said:

"You're right, it's just gossip..."

Speaking of this, he looked out and said softly:

"Lan'er is back..."

Liu Xi followed his gaze, and when he saw Luo Lan walking towards them from the door, he hurriedly got up, and together with Leng Yu, greeted them. Before he could get close, he couldn't wait to ask:

"Princess Yu, is the soup poisonous?"

Leng Yu also looked at her anxiously. Liu Xi's suspicion must not have come out of thin air. Like Eunuch Liu, he also suspected that Concubine Li had poisoned the soup made by his father.

Luo Lan walked in front of the two of them unhurriedly, stood still, shook her head,

"It's not very toxic. If you take it in a small amount, there will be no danger other than addiction to this soup. However, long-term use is also prohibited."

"The old slave has long suspected that Concubine Li Gui's cooking skills are not so good, she must have used some special method, it seems that I guessed it right."

Obviously, Liu Xi had already expected this result.

Leng Yu asked in surprise:

"Lan'er, what exactly was added to that soup? Why is it addictive? Did it also add the poison from the pill last time?"
