Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat
Chapter 770 The Weasel Greets the Chicken
Luo Lan sat aside and listened to their conversation quietly, her pretty eyebrows sometimes tightening and sometimes frowning slightly.
However, Ah Hou's words reminded her, and she nodded immediately,
"Ah Hou's words make sense. I also think that there must be secret passages or hidden compartments in Prince Xi's Mansion. Last time we went to search, we didn't find anything valuable in Prince Xi's Mansion. Leng Xi runs many businesses in Daning Country. , it is impossible not to keep the money you earn at home, so it is certain that there is a hidden compartment in Prince Xi's Mansion, but this place is difficult to find, and maybe no one knows where it is except Lengxi."
Xiaotanzi frowned with confusion on his face.
"Then why did he take An An away? Why did he take Huang Yun away?"
Leng Yu had been silent there. When this issue was mentioned, he finally spoke,
"The reason why An An was taken away was to threaten me, and Huang Yun was taken away to contain the people of Beihai Kingdom. Leng Xi wanted to kill two birds with one stone."
His words immediately made everyone feel that they made sense. Luo Lan clenched his fists and said, "It's neither the left nor the right. What should we do?"
Leng Yu looked at her and comforted her softly:
"Don't worry, at least we know that Leng Xi wants to threaten me with An An, so she will not be in danger for the time being. For An An's safety and to find out Leng Xi's purpose, we can't be anxious now, and we can't alert the snake. As for how to save her, let’s slowly figure it out!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Gang came to report in a hurry.
"My lord, Lord Xi is here."
Cold Creek?
Leng Yu's brows knitted together instantly, and Luo Lan looked at the door with a livid face.
After a while, Leng Xi walked in with a serious look on his face, followed by two servants holding trays in their hands.
He came closer, cupped his fists and saluted:
"Prince Yu, I came today to apologize to you. I heard that last night, some madmen from Prince Xi's Mansion came to Prince Yu's Mansion to commit murder and were killed by you on the spot. I deeply apologize for this... "
As he spoke, he suddenly turned around and pulled off the cover on the tray behind the servant, revealing a thick arm-thick bar inside.
He picked up the cane, raised his hands above his head, and said seriously:
"The people in Prince Xi's Mansion committed crimes because Leng Xi failed to discipline them properly. Today I bring a cane to you to apologize."
This trick of playing hard to get made Luo Lan look disgusted, while Leng Yu looked at him with a frown.
Leng Yu knew in his heart that the reason why he came here was just to clear up the relationship between him and Yuan Gang. This Leng Xi was really evil.
However, he did not expose him, but waved his hands calmly,
"The people under Prince Xi are ignorant. I have already taught you a lesson. Why do you come to apologize? Put away the cane!"
Leng Xi's eyes flashed proudly for a few times, then he bowed and saluted.
"Thank you, Lord Yu, for your forgiveness..."
Luo Lan glanced at Leng Xi, frowned slightly, and asked directly:
"Prince Xi, even if you don't come, I plan to go find you. I heard that someone saw you taking An An and Huang Yun away from Prince Yu's Mansion. I was just about to ask you, where did you take them? Why did you take them? Take them away?"
As soon as these words came out, Leng Xi's heart tightened instantly, but he soon pretended to be relaxed, shaking his sleeves and shaking his head.
"What did Princess Yu say? An An is my niece after all. How could I take her away without telling you? Besides, you went to Prince Xi's Mansion to search last time. If you still have doubts, you can go there at any time. Search, I, Leng Xi, will never stop you."
Seeing his confident look, Luo Lan was even more sure that he must have hidden An An in a place that was not easy to be discovered and only he knew.
But now, both she and Leng Yu knew that they must not be impatient about this matter, lest Leng Xi jump over the wall in a hurry.
So, Leng Yu nodded solemnly,
"What Prince Xi said makes sense, Lan'er. We can all understand your eagerness to find An An, but you can't be suspicious of everyone. Okay, you go and have a rest first. I have a few words with Prince Xi. Want to say."
Seeing this, Luo Lan glanced at Leng Xi, stood up, and walked towards the door.
Watching her leave, Leng Yu sighed helplessly,
"There are a lot of things going on in the palace recently, and she is always suspicious. Don't mind."
"What are you talking about, Fourth Brother? An An is missing, and I am also worried. In the past few days, I have been paying attention to the passers-by on the street. I also hope to find An An as soon as possible."
When Leng Xi lied, his face did not turn red and his heart did not beat. This made Leng Yu feel that he was even more terrifying.
However, he quickly changed the topic and tentatively said:
"By the way, Yang Feng said before he died that he was doing something for you. Some of the people who came to the night attack on Prince Yu's Mansion with Yuan Gang yesterday also admitted that they were assigned by you to exchange jade seals with Yang Feng..."
When he said this, he raised his eyebrows lightly and glanced at Leng Xi. He clearly felt that Leng Xi's face suddenly turned livid.
He continued hurriedly:
"But I think they are not telling the truth. You need to check whether this Yuan Gang and other people under him have been sold by the people of Beihai? Otherwise, stealing the jade seal is not a trivial matter. It is treason and rebellion. Once the matter is done, the whole family will be executed. As their master, if they make a mistake, even if it has nothing to do with you, you can't escape your involvement..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Xi shouted in surprise,
"What? Stealing the jade seal? He is too courageous. He must have been bribed by people from the Beihai Kingdom. I also heard that recently, people from the Beihai Kingdom often move outside the city..."
"Really? Since you have also heard about the people from the Beihai Kingdom, I will give you a task to clear your suspicions. Within three days, arrest a few people from the Beihai Kingdom and come back to question them. By the way, don't arrest them. Two soldiers, at least bring back an official, I believe you can do it."
Leng Xi pursed his lips and knitted his brows.
Let him arrest people from Beihai Kingdom?How can this be.
He had originally reached a consensus with the people from the Beihai Kingdom to seize Leng Yu's throne together. If he went to arrest the people from the Beihai Kingdom now, he would definitely anger Teng Gexiang...
But now, if he doesn't do it, Leng Yu will be suspicious...
Just when he was in a dilemma, Leng Yu asked:
"Is it difficult?"
Leng Xi shook his head hurriedly,
"No, Prince Yu will soon ascend the throne as emperor. How dare I disobey the task you gave me? I will do it now."
As he spoke, there was a hint of hatred in his brows.
"Okay, then there is Prince Laoxi. I will go to Shuntian Mansion in person to interrogate those people. I hope to hear something from their mouths that I want to know."
Hearing this, Leng Xi suddenly felt his scalp numb.
He was still not sure whether the housekeeper had silenced those people. If Leng Yu went to interrogate them and they couldn't hold back and told the truth, then even if he had ten thousand mouths, he wouldn't be able to explain clearly.
He immediately decided to rush ahead of Leng Yu and deal with those few people.
However, Ah Hou's words reminded her, and she nodded immediately,
"Ah Hou's words make sense. I also think that there must be secret passages or hidden compartments in Prince Xi's Mansion. Last time we went to search, we didn't find anything valuable in Prince Xi's Mansion.
