Chapter 123 What happened in the palace

Her words shocked Luo Lan. She didn't expect that Li Fei actually said something fair to Leng Yu.

However, every time before entering the palace, Leng Yu would remind her to be wary of everyone in the palace, so she could guess that Concubine Li's words were definitely not a kind reminder, she must have her own purpose!

So, she shook her head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know what happened back then, and Prince Yu didn't mention it to me, so I can't make a judgment."

Seeing her saying this, Concubine Li grinned and chuckled, "You have only been married into Prince Yu's palace for a short time, so it is normal for you not to understand these things. But since you are married to Yu'er, I think it is Yu'er's blessing.

, maybe you can help him clear his name."

When she said this, Li Fei's eyes stared at her like a falcon, as if she wanted to see some clues from her face.

Luo Lan pretended not to understand and shook his head and sighed,

"Thank you for reminding me, but Prince Yu has never mentioned this matter to me, and I don't know the details at all, so how can I help him clear his name?"

Her expression was indeed one of ignorance.

Li Fei smiled slightly, raised her tea cup and took a sip of tea.

It was the first time I met Princess Yu, and she couldn't talk too much, so we started chatting about skin care.

After Ah Hong finished inquiring about Grandma Lu, she came back and winked at her, and she moved her body and said with some embarrassment:

"Your Majesty, you are tired today, so you should rest first. It is getting late and I should go back."

"Don't worry..."

Li Fei stood up, looked at her reluctantly, walked a few steps forward to her, took her hand, and said kindly:

"Then when will you enter the palace? Don't forget to come to Liyuan to chat with me. I don't have many friends in this palace. The women in the palace only compare with each other and flatter me. I really don't like it, Linlin.

You have also seen her character. She doesn't like to talk to others, and I can't chat with her. I hope you can visit the palace more in the future."

Luo Lan smiled slightly, and she could tell from her words that she was trying to get closer, but what would be the benefit of getting closer to herself?

Luo Lan pretended not to know and nodded, "Okay, when I enter the palace again, Luo Lan will definitely come to Liyuan to pay my respects to the empress."

With these words, she lifted her skirt and walked out of the main hall of Liyuan, followed closely by Ah Cai and Ah Hong.

Looking at her back, Concubine Li's eyes flashed with a profound look.

The girl next to her stepped forward and asked:

"Your Majesty, why are you willing to give her such expensive jewelry?"

Li Fei twitched the corners of her mouth, half-squinted her eyes, and said slowly:

"Nothing is given away for free. The more weight you give, the more useful it will be."

This Princess Yu was not as weak and boneless as she imagined, nor was she as ordinary as she imagined. On the contrary, she exuded an unusual aura.

Therefore, Concubine Li was sure that Princess Yu would be useful to her.

After leaving Liyuan, Li Fei stood still and said to A Hong:

"Where is Grandma Lu?"

"It is said that it is in the Huanyi Bureau. I wanted to find it, but I was afraid of scaring her, so I came to see you, Princess."

Luo Lan's eyes tightened, then nodded and said:

"Okay, find someone to inquire about the route to the Clothing Bureau. Let's go and have a look. We'll find out the results as soon as possible and go back early. I don't want to stay in the palace either."

Ah Hong said with some pride:

"My slave has already inquired about it. Just come with me."

Luo Lan blinked at her and complimented playfully, "Ahong is reliable in doing things. I will reward you later. Let's go!"

After saying that, the group of three people headed in the direction of the Huanyi Bureau.

The laundry bureau in the palace is where most chores are done. Most of the maids and nuns who come here have made some mistakes and were sent here in anger by their masters.

The management of the Clothing Bureau is relatively loose, and there are no guards at the door. After passing through a long corridor, you can see a group of people doing their own work in the yard not far away.

At this time, an old and weak voice sounded,

"I was wrong, mama, please forgive me!"

"Do you still know that you were wrong? You have ruined three pieces of clothing this month. If you continue like this, the entire laundry department will be punished with you."

After saying this, a whip was struck on the woman lying on the ground. She hugged her knees tightly with both hands, curled up together, and a low moan came from her mouth.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in a cold and heartless place like the harem. Although Luo Lan felt that she couldn't bear it, there was nothing she could do. She could only sigh and said to Ah Hong:

"Go and ask someone who is Grandma Lu."

After Ah Hong nodded, he walked towards a palace maid who was playing tricks not far away.

After a while, she hurriedly ran back. She pointed at the person who was curled up on the ground and was being whipped from time to time and said:

"Princess, that... is Grandma Lu."

Hearing this, Luo Lan was a little startled. She took two quick steps and grabbed the whipman's wrist just as the whip was about to fall on her body.

The other party raised his head and saw that she had an unfamiliar face. He immediately frowned and asked,

"Who are you?"

Ah Hong snorted coldly and yelled at her:

"Bind your eyes, this is Princess Yu."

Although Princess Yu was not from the palace, she was still considered a master. The man who raised the whip stopped his whip, raised his face, and asked disdainfully:

"Why did Princess Yu come to the Clothing Bureau? I am here to teach this servant a lesson, what happened to Princess Yu?"

Luo Lan looked at her arrogant face and asked coldly

"What mistake did she make? Why do you keep hitting her?"

"She ruined the ladies' clothes, and her monthly salary for three years is not even enough. Do you think she should be beaten?"

Luo Lan frowned. She lowered her eyebrows and looked at Nanny Lu who was leaning on the ground. She gritted her teeth and said sternly:

"Ah Cai, get her some money. I'll pay for the clothes."

Hearing this, the woman in front of her was stunned for a moment, then she took the money from A Cai's hand with a flattering smile, and said coldly to Nanny Lu who was lying on the ground:

"You met a noble person today. If you do something wrong in the future, you won't be so lucky."

After leaving these words, she turned and left. A Cai and A Hong hurriedly helped Nanny Lu who was lying on the ground.

"How are you? Are you okay?"

Aunt Lu glanced at Luo Lan, her eyes suddenly turned red. She bit her lips and got up from the ground. Luo Lan hurriedly motioned for A Cai to help her sit down in a pavilion not far away.

After sitting down, she took a few deep breaths, then looked at Luo Lan and asked:

"Are you really Princess Yu?"

Luo Lan nodded, "It's me."

"That's great. Someone is taking care of Yu'er, and Grandma Sun can feel at ease."

After saying this, she raised her sleeves and wiped the dry corners of her eyes.

Luo Lan asked hurriedly:

"Mother Lu, I'll tell you the truth. We came here today just to find out about Grandma Sun."

Upon hearing the words "Mother Sun", Grandma Lu's body twitched, and then she began to sob and murmured:
Chapter completed!
