Listening to Leng Xi's indiscriminate questioning, Yu Qiaoqiao secretly took a deep breath. It seemed that Chuntao was right. This girl, indeed, the villain complained first.

Just as she was about to explain, Xiaocui said first:

"Princess, I know that you hate me, but I have never thought of taking your place. I beg you, let me give birth to this child for the prince. I am really hungry now. Otherwise, you Just give me a steamed bun and a pot of water every time, please, please."

While saying this, Xiaocui broke away from Leng Xi and knelt directly on the bed, kowtowing.

This scene left Yu Qiaoqiao speechless, and she held back the words she just wanted to say.

She felt that she had no need to explain. Leng Xi called her to confront Xiao Cui, which was enough to show that he believed Xiao Cui's words.

Could it be that she, the dignified Princess Xi of Prince Xi's Mansion, couldn't argue with a girl?

Seeing her standing there silently, Leng Xi looked at her with cold eyes, gritted his teeth and asked:

"As the princess of Prince Xi's Mansion, if you can't even tolerate a girl in your eyes, then your belly is really too small. I can indulge you in everything, except that you are not allowed to neglect my flesh and blood. You go back , facing the wall for three days and not allowed to leave the house, this is your punishment."

Hearing this, Xiao Cui's mouth showed a smile of success. Yu Qiaoqiao didn't say anything. She just bowed and saluted him, then turned around and left.

Looking at her decisive back, Leng Xi frowned even more tightly. This woman was really stubborn. If she explained a few words, he would believe her, but why didn't she say a word?

Seeing that Leng Xi was angry for her, Xiaocui happily threw herself into Leng Xi's arms and kept telling,

"My lord, please stay here tonight, I'm afraid..."

Leng Xi wanted to refuse, but thinking of the child in her belly and Yu Qiaoqiao's cold eyes just now, he nodded, "Okay, I will accompany you tonight."

Hearing this, Xiaocui felt ecstatic. She pulled Leng Xi's hand over, put it on her belly, and said aggrievedly:

"Look, our son is hungry. Please ask the cook to prepare some food for me!"

Since he hadn't eaten for a day, Leng Xi also felt Xiao Cui's stomach growling. He hurriedly shouted to the people outside:

"Butler, please go down and cook some lighter side dishes for Xiao Cui."

The housekeeper responded, and the quiet outside returned. Xiao Cui climbed onto Leng Xi's neck like a baby, and Leng Xi also lay down on the bed.

Yu Qiaoqiao returned to her room dejected. It wasn't that she didn't want to explain, but she felt that scheming with a girl was too tiring. She was no longer young and didn't have the energy of that girl to please Leng Xi.

If he thinks that she is targeting Xiao Cui on purpose, then let him think so. She doesn't care, she just thinks that what he just said to her is a dream.

Yuwangfu

Just after Haishi, Huaiyu put on his clothes and quietly walked out of the door.

He was going to the backyard to see if what Wu Yuanzhang said was true or false.

There was no wind tonight, and even the sound of snowflakes falling on the roof could be clearly heard.

At this time, the palace of Prince Yu was extremely quiet. Huaiyu ducked and walked along the eaves to the backyard.

He didn't dare to make a sound, even the squeaking sound of his feet in the snow made him shrink his neck and squat down.

At this time, he felt as if he had done something wrong, and walked towards the backyard step by step.

When he came to the backyard, he looked at the ajar back door. Just as he was about to reach out to open it, he heard a conversation coming from outside. He was so frightened that he quickly hid behind the door, put his ear against the door, and listened quietly.

First, a voice that sounded very much like A Gang's voice came to his ears.

"The prince orders you to deal with the child within half a month, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

"I have watched him grow up since I was a child. How can I bear it if you ask me to kill him?"

Hearing this, Huaiyu couldn't help but take a breath. The person who said this seemed to be Uncle Ling.

Another voice came again,

"The prince said that Huaiyu is the child of the late Prince Leng Yun. If he is not dealt with now, when he grows up and knows the cause of his parents' death, he will definitely seek revenge on him. He will attack first."

"But...but I really can't bear to do it."

"Stop talking nonsense. Your Majesty's orders cannot be questioned. Just do as you are told."

It turned out that the two men were plotting to kill him.

His frightened heart was about to jump out of his throat, and his body was shaking non-stop.

Hearing the silence outside, Huaiyu hurriedly covered his mouth, turned around quickly, and ran towards the direction of his room.

When he went back, he was no longer as cautious as when he came. He just wanted to get back to the house as soon as possible, otherwise, he was really afraid that Uncle Ling would find him and kill him directly.

The conversation between these two people made him feel as if his life was being demanded.

For the first time, he felt that the dark night was terrifying, and he was trembling with fear.

The moment he returned to the house, his legs became weak and he collapsed directly to the ground.

His tears were already sliding down his cheeks.

His mother had told him that a man would not shed tears easily, but now, these words were so ironic.

It seemed that what Wu Yuanzhang said was true. It was really them who killed his own father and mother. No wonder they were unwilling to tell him many things.

He clenched his fists tightly and opened them again, crawling along the ground towards the bed.

It was so cold here that he felt like he was shivering all over.

He felt that he had become an orphan at this moment, a poor man who could be killed at any time.

The night suddenly became scary.

He huddled on the bed, shivering.

There were tears in the corners of my eyes until dawn.

……

The fourth day of the first lunar month

In the early morning, Leng Yu went to the military camp. In the past few days, there were a lot of things in the military camp. He also wanted to find someone from these capable lieutenants who could succeed him and take over the position of coach, so this For several days, he went out early and came back late.

While A Cai was washing Luo Lan, she pouted and muttered,

"Princess, I will serve you for another half month and then I will leave you. I am really reluctant to leave you."

Through the bronze mirror, Luo Lan looked at the aggrieved Ah Cai and softly persuaded:

"Acai, you are now a wife. After I enter the palace, you should have a child as soon as possible, and then you can stay at home and raise your children. You two have been married for many years. Although the little twins say they are not in a hurry, I can see that He was very anxious when he came out."

Ah Cai pursed her lips in disbelief and muttered,

"He promised me before we got married that I would always serve you. If you had not entered the palace, I would not have given birth to his child."

Luo Lan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said seriously:

"You and Ah Hong have followed me for many years and have become like sisters to me. Now you have found a home, and the little twins are very good to you. However, Ah Hong has not found her lover yet. I thought that after entering the palace, Find a suitable opportunity and ask the prince to marry her, so that I can feel more at ease."

Hearing this, A Cai said eagerly as if thinking of something:

"It's better to give her to Ayu or Ahou, or if it doesn't work out, give her Xiaotanzi or Xiaoningzi. The wealth will not go to outsiders, and since she knows the root cause, Ahong will not suffer."

Luo Lan neither agreed nor denied A Cai's proposal.

She had considered these people and asked A Hong, but A Hong expressed her unwillingness. She said that she only wanted to serve her in this life.

At this moment, Ah Hong walked in quickly and said anxiously:

"Princess, it's not good, Huaiyu has a fever."
