Chapter 252 Reluctance to say goodbye
His words were sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were hollow and deep. Looking at him, Li Fei was stunned for a moment.
She wanted to raise her hand to touch his face, but he avoided her.
Li Fei blinked her eyes a few times, sighed and said softly:
"Xi'er, since you moved out of the palace, my concubine feels that you have changed. In the past, you would tell my concubine about everything. Now, my concubine can't see you for several days..."
"People are going to change."
Leng Xi interrupted her, his expression became cold, and he added: "In this ruthless palace, if I don't change, I won't be as my mother and concubine want."
Although his words were spoken softly, they made Li Zhen's heart tremble. The look in her son's eyes when he spoke to her made her feel cold and frightened.
"If nothing happens, I will leave."
After leaving these words, Leng Xi turned around lonely and walked outside the main hall of Liyuan.
His expression was cold and his complexion was dark, without any trace of his daytime look.
Leng Xi was once an innocent and cheerful child. He liked to play and laugh, but every time he was disobedient and every time he laughed unbridled, his mother and concubine would make him kneel down as punishment, and she would warn him that if he wanted to succeed,
If it's a big deal, you can't giggle every day.
Over time, he felt that he couldn't laugh anymore, and his mind was filled only with power and status. Although he didn't like this kind of life, he could only do this.
There were many times when he didn't know what he wanted. Whenever he wanted to stay comfortably in his Prince Xi's Mansion for more than three days, his mother-in-law would send him into the palace and give him a whip, so he
I live in anxiety and embarrassment every day.
He knew that the mother-in-law wanted him to be the prince and the emperor in the future. The mother-in-law said that only in this way would he not be sent to a remote place by his own brother like the King of Zhennan.
When he told his mother and concubine that he felt that living like King Zhennan was a kind of relief, her mother and concubine made him continue to kneel down and even deprived him of a bite of food for three days...
Thinking of this, Leng Xi quickened his pace. He wanted to escape from this palace, which was like an abyss to him, to become the double-faced man he was unwilling to be, and to fight for those so-called positions of power.
All this is just to fulfill the mother's wish.
…
In the early morning, the carriage from the Duke's Mansion arrived at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion and was waiting.
Luo Lan was dressing up, while Leng Yu was sitting not far away looking at her, with a pitiful expression like a little woman about to be abandoned.
Stroking the long hair on her chest, looking through the bronze mirror and seeing Leng Yu sitting not far away, Luo Lan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, pursed her lips and smiled:
"Ms. sir, why are you looking so sad?"
Although Leng Yu was very reluctant to let Luo Lan leave, his face was very calm, because he knew that from now on, he would use the sixteen people he promised to carry a sedan to welcome his wife into the house.
He pursed his lips and muttered with a pitiful expression:
"The lady is leaving, and my husband is upset."
Ah Hong, who was doing Luo Lan's makeup, couldn't help but pursed her lips and chuckled. Ah Cai even laughed out loud. Seeing this, Leng Yu growled in displeasure,
"Why are you laughing? Is what I said wrong?"
A Cai stuck out her tongue and said first:
"The slaves don't dare to laugh at the prince. It's just that the prince and princess are only away for a few days. Why do they need to be so sad? The slaves don't understand."
Luo Lan raised his eyebrows and looked at A Cai in the bronze mirror, raised his eyebrows and said reprovingly:
"Little girl, you are still young now. You will understand when you find the person you love."
A Cai's face suddenly turned red when she mentioned her lover. She lowered her head and murmured in a low voice,
"What did the princess say? Ah Cai doesn't want to find the one she likes."
Seeing her being so coquettish, Luo Lan laughed as if he had discovered something:
"Ah Cai, is it possible that you have fallen in love with someone? Otherwise, why would your face be so red?"
"No way, the princess will make fun of the slave."
After saying this, she picked up the water basin on the stool, leaned forward and said:
"Slave, go get some water."
After saying this, she ran away as if running away.
Looking at her back, Luo Lan looked at Ah Hong, pursed her lips and asked:
"What's wrong with A Cai?"
Ah Hong pursed her lips and shook her head, "I don't know, I feel like she's a little weird lately, and she's always snickering."
Hearing this, Luo Lan raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise:
"Could she really have someone in mind?"
"No, she is a silly girl who only eats and sleeps all day long. How can she understand this?"
After saying this, Ah Hong handed the lipstick to Luo Lan and said softly:
"Princess, you can go out after applying lipstick."
Luo Lan took the lipstick, nodded to her and said:
"I understand. You should go out first. I have something to say to the prince."
Ah Hong knew that the princess would definitely have to whisper to the prince, so after accepting the order, she hurriedly retreated.
Seeing that Ah Hong had closed the door and they were the only two people left here, Leng Yu came behind her. He put his hands on her shoulders, looked at the pretty person in the bronze mirror, and said lovingly:
"Madam, wait for me to marry you and live in my house."
Luo Lan put her hand on his, smiled and nodded, "Okay, I've worked hard these days for you."
Hearing what she said, he possessed him and wanted to kiss her face, but she blocked it with her arm, "Don't mess up the makeup you just put on."
Leng Yu could only retract his extended mouth, then pulled her up, faced her face to face, and whispered lovingly:
"Madam, take care of yourself these days and have a good rest. I will miss you."
Luo Lan raised her hand and pressed lightly on the tip of his nose. With her eyes gleaming, she replied coquettishly:
"I will miss you too. Take good care of you at home these days, and behave well when we have our wedding night."
Hearing what she said, Leng Yu suddenly felt a rush of heat all over his body. He swallowed quickly, calmed down his emotions, and chuckled at her:
"Let's go. The carriage from the Duke's Mansion has been here for a long time. The Duke must be waiting impatiently."
After saying that, he took her hand and walked out the door.
The sunshine is so beautiful today. It shines on people's faces and makes their hearts warm.
After leaving the room, Ah Hou, Ah Hou, and Zhang Yuan came forward to greet them. The three of them directly stepped forward and clasped their fists:
"Your Majesty, we want to protect the princess, please allow your permission."
Hearing this, Leng Yu suddenly smiled, and Luo Lan also smiled and shook his head:
"The place I went to is the Duke's Mansion. My father is the Duke. General Liu is the current Protector of Daning Kingdom. His men are all highly skilled in martial arts. Do you think it is wrong for you to go to the Duke's Mansion to protect me?
Isn’t it a bit redundant?”
The others lowered their heads in embarrassment, while Ayu said directly:
"We... we were worried about the princess, so... we didn't think too much about it."
"It doesn't matter. I'm very happy that you have this heart. You can assist the prince in preparing for the wedding ceremony in the past few days!"
After Ayu and others nodded hurriedly, they took a few steps back to make way.
Leng Yu took Luo Lan's hand and continued to move forward. At this time, the servants in the palace were standing on both sides, waiting respectfully at the gate.
Outside the door, several generals in armor were standing at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion. When they saw the two of them coming out, they hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted. One of them came to the two of them and said directly:
Chapter completed!
