In fact, the reason why Leng Yu said this before he left was because he knew in his heart that Leng Xi was definitely afraid that those people would turn him in, so he would definitely jump over the wall and find a way to get rid of those people. If he could It might be a good thing to come forward in person. Even if he doesn't come forward in person, there is nothing to be lost by scaring him.

Leng Xi didn't know that Zhang Yuan and others had been waiting there for a long time, but he didn't expect that as soon as Leng Xi left, Zhang Yuan came back.

"My lord, they did make some movement, but the people who came here were all new faces, and they didn't catch Leng Xi."

Leng Yu nodded solemnly,

"I have already guessed that Leng Xi will not show his fox tail at this critical moment. Let's lock him up first! We will try him again when we have time."

"Yes."

"By the way, there are still six days until the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. These days must be planned in advance to ensure that no matter how big the storm is in the palace, the people in the city will not be disturbed. Now the Daning Kingdom is in a state of internal and external troubles. Wait for me After ascending the throne, there will definitely be some big fluctuations..."

"Your Majesty, the foreign trouble refers to the people of Beihai Kingdom. We have no control over it. This internal trouble belongs to Leng Xi. It is better to find a reason to deal with him before you ascend the throne to avoid future troubles."

Although Zhang Yuan's words made sense, Leng Yu still shook his head helplessly.

"I promised my father before that I would not harm my brothers no matter what. If I take him down now, my father will be heartbroken. Besides, he ordered others to do everything. He can take him down. He picked it very cleanly, and we have no substantial evidence at all. If we arrest him now, it will inevitably make people think that I am a narrow-minded person who cannot tolerate my brothers."

Leng Yu's words made Zhang Yuan nod silently. He only thought about the present and did not think about these things. No wonder the prince has been unwilling to take Leng Xi down. It turned out that he had considered so much.

……

In order to successfully find out An An's whereabouts, Luo Lan thought about it and decided to put the breakthrough point on Xiaobao.

At noon, Xiaobao came to Prince Yu's Mansion. As soon as he came in, he couldn't wait to find Lele and kept asking,

"Is there any news about Sister An An?"

Lele looked at him puzzledly,

"Why are you so anxious? Are you sweating profusely?"

Xiaobao lowered his voice and explained:

"My father didn't let me go out, let alone come to Prince Yu's Mansion. I sneaked out while he was away."

"Oh, there is no news about Sister An An, but I heard something and I don't know if I should tell you. My mother won't let me tell you."

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly?"

Seeing Xiaobao's impatient look, Lele whispered in his ear,

"I heard that An'an is in your Prince Xi's Mansion."

"impossible……"

Xiaobao immediately raised his voice and shook his head vigorously.

"It's impossible. I've searched all over Prince Xi's Mansion and couldn't find it."

Lele waved to him hurriedly, turned around and ran to the door, closed the door, then came to him and said mysteriously:

"Does your Xiwang Mansion have a secret room?"

Xiaobao really didn't know this question, so he shook his head immediately.

"Maybe not."

"No or you don't know?"

Lele's question made Xiaobao mutter, "Maybe I don't know. I don't know if there is one. Anyway, I haven't seen it."

Lele suddenly stepped forward, put his hands on Xiaobao's shoulders, and looked at him seriously,

"Xiaobao, are you really willing to help us find Sister An An?"

Xiaobao nodded heavily without thinking,

"Of course, otherwise why would I sneak out and risk being beaten to death by my father?"

"Well, listen carefully now. Sister An'an is in your Prince Xi's Mansion. After you go back, don't mention this matter to others. Go and observe your father in secret. If he is the only one who knows about this secret room, he will definitely I will personally deliver food to Sister An An, do you understand what I mean?"

Xiaobao tilted his head and looked at him, nodding in understanding.

"I understand, you mean, wherever my father sneaks food, there will be problems, right?"

"Yes, Xiaobao, you are so smart."

Xiaobao grinned, scratched his head, and laughed, "You've rewarded me, then I'll go back now, and you wait for my good news."

An An directly patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, remember, don't let your father discover your abnormality, and don't mention it to others, otherwise, not only will we not be able to save An An, but we will also harm An An. Understand?"

"I understand, don't worry, Xiaobao is a man and can do this well."

"Okay, you will go out through the back door later, and when you come back, you will also come through the back door. I will tell the servant guarding the back door to open the door for you in time when he sees you coming."

Xiaobao instantly felt that he was going to do something great, and he nodded seriously,

"Okay, just wait for my good news."

After that, he trotted away from here. Lele stepped forward and watched him go away before returning to the house again.

At this time, Luo Lan walked out of the room, looked at the direction Xiaobao left with a solemn face, and murmured,

"I hope An An will not be in danger."

"Mom, was what I just said right?"

Luo Lan stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and nodded happily,

"You did a good job, Lele. When you grow up, you can take care of my mother's worries. My mother is very happy. Thank you."

"Mom, don't say that. We are also responsible for the loss of Sister An An. We were the ones who begged you to keep Mr. Huang in your house. If not, An An would not have been lost, and none of these things would have happened. .”

Lele's self-blame made Luo Lan feel sad.

Even she and Leng Yu didn't find anything wrong with Huang Yun, how could the children find out?

Children know how to blame themselves. As a mother, should she blame herself even more?

……

the twelfth day of the first month

Xiwang Mansion

Xiaobao began to observe Leng Xi's whereabouts, and his abnormal behavior aroused Yu Qiaoqiao's suspicion.

Just when Xiaobao was watching the two girls delivering the food to Lengxi's study, Yu Qiaoqiao patted him on the shoulder from behind, scaring Xiaobao so much that he suddenly turned around to look.

When he saw Yu Qiaoqiao, he breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest vigorously.

"Mom, you scared me to death."

Yu Qiaoqiao followed the direction he just looked and asked in surprise:

"What are you looking at?"

"No... nothing."

Xiaobao's panicked explanation made Yu Qiaoqiao even more convinced that something must be wrong with him.

"It's cold outside, let's go back inside and talk."

She wanted to pull him back into the house and ask him carefully. She was worried that Xiaobao was secretly watching Leng Xi.

After Yu Qiaoqiao brought Xiaobao into the house, she sat in front of him and asked seriously:

"Tell me, what were you looking at just now?"

Xiaobao pursed his lips and shook his head vigorously.

"No... I didn't see anything."

"you are lying?"

Yu Qiaoqiao's voice suddenly became sharp,

"You are not a child who knows how to lie. Tell me the truth. What were you watching just now?"

Xiaobao bit his lip and shook his head.

Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Yu Qiaoqiao pondered for a while and continued to ask,

"I know, you are looking at your father. Are you curious about his whereabouts, or are you looking for something?"
