Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

Leng Yu raised his hand and pressed lightly on the tip of her nose.

"You will always be a little girl in my heart. By the way, I will order someone to call Luo Xue later. Let's have dinner with your parents at the Duke's Mansion today. Before returning to the palace, let's go to Prince Yu's Mansion to have a look. Just them."

Luo Lan nodded in agreement with his suggestion, but she looked at him awkwardly.

"But you are not Prince Yu now, you are the Emperor. The Emperor is having dinner at the minister's house. Isn't this... not appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate about that? As the emperor, I'm also your father's son-in-law. Isn't it normal to have a meal at my father-in-law's house?"

Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled,

"You are right. Let's stay one night at the Duke's Mansion tonight. My mother is not in good health recently. I want to stay with her?"

Leng Yu nodded in agreement without thinking.

"Okay, if you feel that the accommodation is not enough, just stay there for a few more days and wait until Xiao Ningzi gets married before returning to the palace. This will avoid the hassle of going back and forth."

Luo Lan pondered for a while and looked at him with squinted eyes.

"If I'm not in the palace, will you find another woman to solve your urgent needs?"

Her question made Leng Yu stunned for a moment. He then raised his hand, lifted her chin, and looked at her evilly,

"Only Lan'er can arouse my interest. If you are really worried, I will handle official duties in the palace during the day and return to the Duke's mansion to accompany you at night. Is this okay?"

She nuzzled her nose at him, took her chin away from his hand, and shook her head.

"No, your body will definitely be unable to bear the stress of going back and forth like this. I'll just treat it as giving you a few days off and let you spend the night in the Yangxin Hall!"

While they were talking, the carriage stopped, and Qin Shun whispered back outside:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Duke's Mansion has arrived. The Duke and his wife have come out to greet you two."

Hearing this, Leng Yu hurriedly opened the sedan curtain door. Qin Shun stepped forward and helped him down. He turned around and helped Luo Lan down together with Ah Hong and A Cai.

Liu Dechang hurriedly brought his wife to welcome him, bowed and saluted,

"Greetings to the Emperor, and greetings to the Queen."

Luo Lan stepped forward and helped Xiaoling up.

"Mom, how are you and dad?"

Liu Dechang grinned happily and patted his chest,

"Dad, your bones are fine now. Your mother was ill a few days ago, and now I heard she's fine if you come. Come on, come in quickly."

After saying this, he looked at Leng Yu and extended his hand to indicate to him.

After Leng Yu nodded, he walked towards the Duke's Mansion surrounded by everyone.

Today, the Duke's Mansion is extremely lively. The eunuchs and maids from the palace are standing all over the courtyard. The servants of the Duke's Mansion are all cautious in doing things and walking with fear, for fear of saying something wrong and offending Long Yan.

Leng Yu and Liu Dechang walked directly to the main hall of the Duke's Mansion, while Luo Lan walked to the backyard with Xiaoling, who wanted to chat with her mother.

Back in the room, Xiaoling hurriedly pulled her to sit down on the soft couch and asked with concern:

"Where's Lele? Does he miss me? I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Lele also wants to come, but I didn't let him go. I want to take him to Wutai Mountain to stay for a while at the beginning of the month. I will definitely fall behind on some homework. Let him catch up on it these days, and then let him accompany you when we go to Wutai Mountain."

Xiaoling nodded happily,

"Okay, okay, by the way, will An'an go too? An'an, this kid, comes to see me every now and then, calling her "grandma" so cutely. It would be great if she was really born to you."

"Mom, don't say that. No matter who gave birth to her, I brought her up since she was a child. She calls you grandma. You must treat her like Lele and don't have any objections."

"Mother knows, An An is careful. If mother had any objection to her, she would have ignored her a long time ago. Mother just talked about it casually, but in her heart she still treated her as her granddaughter, just like Duoduo."

Mentioning Duoduo, Luo Lan thought of Luo Xue, and she immediately looked at Xiaoling,

"Mom, do you know why I want to go to Mount Wutai this time?"

Xiaoling replied directly without thinking:

“Pray for blessings for the people of Mianzhou!”

Luo Lan nodded seriously,

"This is one, and the other is that Leng Ming is in Mount Wutai."

"what?"

Xiaoling looked at her in astonishment and asked in confusion,

"What is he doing there?"

"He wants to become a monk."

Hearing this, Xiaoling gritted her teeth and cursed angrily,

"What a coward. He just knows how to escape when something happens, and he still wants to become a monk? He is really promising. Bai Xiaoxue has a crush on him."

"Mom, I also want to take this opportunity to let Luo Xue persuade him to see if there is any room for maneuver. If he insists on doing this, then we have done our best."

"Alas! Luo Xue's life is really miserable. She found such a man, and that Chang family. I heard that they had locked the door and left. Why didn't she die outside? What a good family she had, but she had torn it apart. At that time, I really wanted to strangle her to death."

Seeing that her mother was not angry at the mention of Chang's family, Luo Lan hurriedly persuaded her,

"Mom, don't be angry. The Chang family has done many evil things and will be punished sooner or later. Although Luo Lan and Leng Ming's incident happened because of her, the problem still lies with them. If their feelings are strong enough, don't say anything. The Chang family, even ten Chang families can't break it up, so I think I'll give them one last chance!"

Xiaoling sighed softly and nodded,

"That's fine. If he insists on being tonsured, then Xue will give up on him. Let Mr. Chang regret his death!"

At this moment, Luo Xue's voice came from outside. Luo Lan shook his head at Xiaoling,

"Mom, don't mention this to her yet."

"I know."

As soon as they finished speaking, Luo Xue pushed the door open and Duoduo rushed in directly from the door and threw herself into Xiaoling's arms,

"Grandma, I miss you so much."

Xiaoling picked up Duoduo, kissed her on the cheek, and looked at her with joy.

"Grandma misses you too, and your aunt misses you too. Give your aunt a kiss."

Luo Lan brought her face closer, stretched out her plump little mouth, and kissed her on the face. Luo Lan immediately pinched her little cheek with a smile on her face,

"Duoduo is so good..."

"Mom, sister, I originally wanted to ask An An and Yicheng to come together, but they said they have to do more homework these days and they want to go to Mount Wutai with us at the beginning of the month."

"Well, this is what I told them. You have also handed over your business in the past few days. I thought we would take my mother to Wutai Mountain to stay for a few days."

Luo Xue looked at her with some confusion,

"Sister, Mount Wutai is far away from the capital, and we have to walk a mountainous road. Why should we go to Mount Wutai?"

Seeing her asking this question, Xiaoling quickly looked at Luo Lan, and Luo Lan raised her handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth.

"Mount Wutai has a pleasant scenery, and the abbot has been an eminent monk for many years. I thought about going there and asking this eminent monk to remove my bad luck, and praying for the people of Mianzhou would be more accurate."

She didn't want to tell her that Leng Ming was there because she was afraid that her stubborn temper would come up and she would refuse to go together.
