Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

……

Early the next morning, Leng Xi took Yu Qiaoqiao to the gate of Qianqing Palace and paid three obeisances to the emperor.

The emperor served him three glasses of wine as if he were a soldier on an expedition. When he picked up the wine glass, he looked at him seriously.

"Fifth brother, you have worked hard on this trip. I hope you will make a triumphant return soon. When the time comes, I will take care of you."

Leng Xi raised the wine glass high, then lowered it slowly, looking at him firmly,

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that my brother's trip will help the people of Mianzhou escape from the sea of ​​misery as soon as possible. I have issued a military order here. If I can't make the people of Mianzhou have enough food and clothing, I am willing to die in Mianzhou."

His words moved Leng Yu. This brother he once hated took the initiative to put on his armor and go to war to lighten his burden when he was worried about the disaster in Mianzhou. At this time, no matter how many mistakes he had made before Everything seems trivial now.

After Leng Yu nodded solemnly, he raised his head together with him, drank the wine in his hand, then took two steps forward, patted him on the shoulder, goΠb.oγg

"Fifth brother, have a pleasant trip. Leave early and come back early."

Leng Xi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a relaxed expression.

"Fourth brother, there are some things I have wanted to tell you for a long time. I am leaving today. No matter what I say is right or not, you must not blame me."

Leng Yu nodded,

"Just say what you have to say. At this time, Fourth Brother feels that you are still the same Xi'er who liked to play behind Fourth Brother's back."

Hearing this, a trace of tears flashed in Leng Xi's eyes.

He pursed his lips tightly and nodded, smiling bitterly:

"Fourth brother, now I realize that it is good to be a good person. I feel relaxed and stress-free. Fifth brother, I really appreciate you and the emperor's sister-in-law for raising up my Xiaomin's daughter regardless of past grudges and allowing me to step back from the cliff in time. From now on , I hope you can continue to take good care of An An, I have already thought about it, no matter whether she recognizes me as her father or not, the blood flowing in her body is my blood..."

Leng Yu looked at him and patted his shoulder again. Yu Qiaoqiao glanced into the distance and hurriedly stepped forward to remind him,

"Lengxi, look over there..."

Leng Xi and Leng Yu looked together in the direction where Yu Qiaoqiao's eyes were looking, and saw An An standing there uneasily, looking at Leng Xi with clear eyes.

The moment he saw An An, Leng Xi's eyes turned red again. At this moment, An An raised his hand, waved to him, and said goodbye to him.

Although An An didn't say a word, Leng Xi was already very satisfied to see her come to see him off.

He raised his hand and waved in her direction, then looked at Yu Qiaoqiao beside him,

"It's getting late, let's hit the road."

Yu Qiaoqiao nodded and chuckled at him, then looked in the direction of An An and smiled.

Leng Xi shook his clothes heavily, turned around, and walked towards the palace gate, followed closely by Yu Qiaoqiao.

Looking at their leaving figures, An An had a faint smile on her lips.

After thinking about it all night, she decided to come and see Leng Xi off. Just like her mother said, even if she didn't say a word, she just wanted him to see her coming.

After Leng Xi walked far away, he looked back again. When he saw An An still standing there looking at him, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, and made a gesture to her to go back. He didn't pull her back until he saw An An turning around. Living in skillful hands, it is difficult to suppress the joy in my heart,

"Qiaoqiao, did you see it? An An came to see me off? She smiled at me..."

"I see, she is happy for your change. When she returns from this trip, it will be the time when she calls you daddy. You must not let her down."

"Don't worry. No matter how difficult it is, I will persevere. For the fourth brother's entrustment, and for An An's father..."

A lively breeze blew on his face, blowing up a few strands of hair scattered on his forehead, but he was not annoyed at all, with a faint smile on his face...

……

Qixia Palace

Xingnan has been locking himself in his room since he sneaked out of the palace and returned. Yongping was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.

The girl had just returned from a visit. After entering the house, she shook her head.

"My servant just knocked on the door. Princess Xingnan said that she saw no one except the one named Ning. She also said..."

"What else can you say?"

Yongping felt that her heart was about to be broken by this girl. Originally, Yongning's matter was enough to make her anxious and angry, but now Xingnan is here crying and making trouble, which really makes her don't know what to do.

Seeing that the girl was blushing and afraid to speak out, she became furious instantly.

"Say it."

"Yes, Princess Xingnan said that if she never sees Master Ning again, she will... she will not live."

"what?"

This sentence frightened Yong Ping to stand up from her chair. She walked around the room several times and kept muttering,

"What can we do? What can we do?"

At this time, Daji came back from outside dejectedly. After entering the house, he said directly:

"Sister-in-law, what should we do about Xingnan? We can't watch her starve to death!"

"How do I know what to do? I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup that Ning poured into her. She actually said... She also said that she wouldn't live if she couldn't see Ning. You said... you didn't mean to say that. Force me to death."

Daji sat down on the chair and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"If I had known that coming to Daning would cause so many troubles, it would be better to stay peacefully in Nanping. In the worst case, I would agree to make peace with Beihai. What should I do now? If anything bad happens to her, not to mention you, the emperor's sister-in-law, it's me. It must be inseparable."

"Then what should we do? How about you go and persuade her that we should go back to Nanping Country tomorrow?"

"Go back to Nanping Country? What should I do with the little emperor's wife? Leave her here and ignore her?"

Daji's question made Yongping frown. Yes, she couldn't ignore Yongning's affairs. Leng Yu hadn't interrogated her yet. She had visited her in the prison in the past two days. She was a little excited and in a very bad state. not good.

She was really afraid that by then, she would confess her. In that case, according to the laws of Daning Kingdom, she could be beheaded, even if Leng Yunian sent her back to Nanping Kingdom because she was a Nanping citizen. , then according to the laws of Nanping Kingdom, she still wouldn't survive.

What should we do to prevent Yongning from telling her that she was the mastermind behind it?

Thinking of these, she began to have troubles, while Daji sat there thinking about Xingnan.

"The Emperor is here!"

Qin Shun's voice sounded, and Yongping's expression suddenly became tense.

Why is the emperor here?

Her heart also beat a small drum at this time.

After Yongping and Daji saluted, Leng Yu sat in the main hall of Qixia Palace and motioned for them to sit on both sides.

He looked at the two of them with keen eyes. Yongping swallowed nervously, while Daji's expression was relatively calm.

There was silence for a while before he spoke,

"I heard that Princess Xingnan hasn't eaten all day and night? What's going on?"

Yongping sighed there,

"This girl sneaked out yesterday morning and came back like this. I don't know what that little Ningzi said to her. Oh, how can this be a good thing?"

Daji, on the other hand, threw his hands away angrily.

"She is like a man possessed. She insists on liking that person named Ning. Tomorrow morning, I will forcefully take her back to Nanping Country to see what she can do."
