Princess Jiaojiao arrives, teasing the prince to blush and heartbeat

After saying this, she suddenly realized something, timidly raised her head and glanced at Luo Lan, and asked cautiously,

"Is this the Queen?"

Luo Lan saw a different look in her eyes, she frowned and nodded,

"Ah."

The old woman swallowed hard, and then tugged on Xiaoling's clothes.

Xiaoling seemed to realize something, waving her hands hurriedly, shaking her head in horror,

"Your Majesty, Queen, we will not sue, we will not sue, we will go back now, we will go back now."

Luo Lan was surprised by their sudden change, and Leng Yu was also confused.

Ah Hong reminded loudly,

"If you want to take back what you said? That's a false accusation. False accusations will cost you your head."

Ah Hong's words frightened the old woman and she fell to the ground with a pale face. Xiaoling wiped her tears and kept complaining.

"I told you, don't come, don't come. If you insist on coming, it's okay now. We can't go back. We're left with a blind father and two children. What will happen to this family?"

The old woman was wiping her tears and sobbing uncontrollably.

"I never knew it would be like this! Your Majesty, Queen, please spare us two illiterate women. We will not sue."

Leng Yu was a little surprised by the sudden change between mother and daughter. After he and Luo Lan looked at each other, he asked in confusion,

"Old man, do you have any concerns?"

The old woman bit her lip and shook her head vigorously. Xiaoling looked at Luo Lan timidly and shook her head silently.

This scene suddenly made Luo Lan realize something. She took two steps forward and asked softly:

"When you mentioned me just now, you stopped what you wanted to say. Could it be that this matter has something to do with me, the queen?"

Her question made Xiaoling and the old woman wave their hands in fear at the same time.

"No, no, no, who doesn't know that the Queen is kind-hearted, how could such evil things...how could they be related to the Queen?"

Although they shook their heads in denial, Luo Lan still felt that they changed their minds and did not want to redress their grievances until they knew she was a queen. This matter was most likely related to her.

She took a deep breath and spoke solemnly again,

"You only have this chance to redress your grievances. If you don't seize it, you will never have the chance. No matter who this matter is related to, I hope you can tell the truth. The emperor will not favor anyone."

Leng Yu also nodded seriously,

"The queen is right. No matter who it is related to, I will not condone anything that hurts people or kills people. If you have grievances, just say it. If you refuse to say it, no one can help you."

Just when Xiaoling was about to speak, the old woman pulled her, and then straightened her back as if she had made great determination.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, Xiaoling didn't know about this. It was the common woman who instigated her to come. No matter what the common woman said wrong, I beg the Emperor and the Queen to spare her. Do the common women still have two children at home? No one cares, nothing can happen to her."

Leng Yu looked at her with sharp eyes and nodded, then pulled Luo Lan and sat back on the chair, waiting for the old woman to speak.

The old woman hesitated there and clenched her fists as if she was heartbroken.

"The reason why the common woman said just now that the emperor must take care of this matter personally is because...it's because the person who supports Hu Tian and Boss Wang is the empress."

These words exploded above Luo Lan's head like a bolt from the blue.

When did she encourage others to do this? The most important thing is that she doesn't even know where Yilan County is. How could this matter be related to her?

Leng Yu also looked at Luo Lan confused, and then said coldly:

"The Queen has never left the capital, how dare you frame her? You are so audacious."

Hearing this, the old woman kowtowed hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life. How dare a common woman dare to frame the Queen? This is not what the common woman said. The people around Yilan County all said so. Because of this, the common people did not dare to go to Beijing to complain to the emperor, and no one If you dare to make things bigger, please ask the emperor to see clearly and make decisions for the people."

Looking at Leng Yu's slightly angry expression, Luo Lan reminded in a low voice,

"Your Majesty, you know that I am innocent, but the people do not. We should investigate this matter."

Leng Yu frowned and looked at her,

"In your opinion, who should be sent to investigate this matter more safely?"

Luo Lan pondered for a while and whispered in his ear:

"If this matter is really what this lady said, we must not mess around to prevent them from killing people and silence them. Not only will they not be found, but they will also scare the snake. This matter will become an unsolved case..."

"Then what do you mean?"

Luo Lan blinked cautiously,

"Didn't you just say that you wanted to leave the palace to observe the people's sentiments? Why not go and investigate the matter yourself? In this way, you can not only restore my innocence, but also eliminate the harm to the people..."

Leng Yu frowned, nodded slowly, and then looked at Xiaoling and her daughter,

"I know about this. Someone must have framed the Queen. I will go and investigate. You go home and wait!"

Xiaoling and the old woman looked at each other, and then looked at him expectantly.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to investigate? You won't lie to us."

Ayu stepped forward and scolded:

"Bold, what the Emperor said is true. How can you be allowed to question it?"

Xiaoling was frightened by Ayu's words. Leng Yu glared at him, then nodded slowly,

"Don't worry. Now that I know about this matter, I will definitely take care of it to the end. I will never allow anyone to tarnish the Queen's reputation."

The old woman couldn't help but asked tentatively:

"Your Majesty, this is far away from Yilan County. The money we borrowed when we came here was all spent on official errands down the mountain. Now we are penniless. Can you please give us some dry food and cakes to eat on the way?"

The old woman's words made Leng Yu's face turn pale.

He felt that he was incompetent as an emperor, and under his eyes, the people were still being squeezed by official officials.

He closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, waving to Ayu,

"Give them ten taels of silver, and get them some cakes to take with them."

Seeing this, the old woman waved her hands in panic.

"Your Majesty, we just want food. We don't want money. We don't want money. We just want my son back."

Seeing that she was a little excited, Leng Yu quickly comforted her softly,

"Don't worry, I am the emperor, the king of a country, and I will not use money to prevaricate you. I will take care of the affairs of Yilan County, but after you go back, you must not mention this matter to others, so as not to get into trouble. do you know?"

The old woman hesitated and nodded heavily.

"We know that we will go back and wait. We believe that the emperor will make the decision for us."

Xiaoling took ten taels of silver from Ayu, and Ahong handed her a bag of food. She kowtowed to the emperor with trembling hands and tears in her eyes.

"Your Majesty is wise. This is the blessing of the people of Daning Kingdom. May your Majesty be blessed."

Leng Yu sighed and waved his hands,

"As an emperor, I only know how to stay in the palace and listen to the memorials from these ministers. I don't know the sufferings of the people at all. I am not qualified at all. If I hadn't met your mother and daughter today, I really thought that the people of Daning Kingdom were living a prosperous life. There is no one suffering or starving!”
