Chapter 306: Giving help in times of need is the most precious thing, what’s the use of adding icing on the cake?
March 8th
After leaving for more than a month, Leng Yu and Luo Lan finally returned to Prince Yu's Mansion. A Yu, A Hou, A Gang and A Li came out to greet them with a group of servants.
Luo Lan helped Leng Yu out of the carriage. After everyone saluted them, Luo Lan helped him into the house.
After a long journey, his body was very weak and he needed to rest.
Finally arriving home, Leng Yu's mood improved. He walked around the peach tree in the yard, looking at the buds on the tree and softly said:
"Look, Lan'er, the peach tree has sprouted. I haven't seen it bloom for a long time. This year, I finally have the opportunity to see it bloom."
Having said this, he seemed a little excited. He raised his hand, lovingly caressed the small gray-brown buds on the peach branch, and murmured:
"Look at them, they have sprouted, but they are invisible and incomprehensible. One day, you will find that they suddenly bloom. If you look around, the branches are full of peach blossoms.
How beautiful it would be then."
No wonder he lamented that at this time last year, he was still paralyzed in bed, a useless person with no one to take care of him, half-dead all day long.
So when he saw these budding peach branches, he suddenly felt a lot of hope in his heart.
He flicked his fingers slowly on the peach branch, and a happy smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Lan'er, you are like this peach blossom tree, you bring me hope, bring me back to life, and give me the courage and strength to live."
When he said this, he suddenly looked down at her, stretched out his hands to hold her in his arms, and stood with her under the lush peach tree, looking up at the peach blossom tree that had just branched out, standing quietly, together
Looking forward to a better future.
…
Early the next morning, the emperor's imperial edict and rewards arrived. Liu Xi, carrying the edict, was waiting in the courtyard with a group of eunuchs.
Luo Lan tidied Leng Yu's clothes and chuckled at him:
"Ms. sir, go and receive the order."
Leng Yu nodded, reached out to hold her hand, and walked towards the door with her.
Sun Xi saw them coming out and rushed over to greet them.
"Prince Yu, the Emperor heard that you were seriously injured, so he allowed you to stand and receive the order."
After Leng Yu nodded, Luo Lan and everyone in the house knelt down in front of Sun Xi.
Sun Xi spread out the imperial edict and read in the voice of a male duck:
"It is sent by heaven. The emperor issued an edict saying that General Leng Yu, the general of the country, was traveling this time to bring the Wu family father and son, who were both tigers and wolves, to justice. He had made great contributions in quelling the chaos. He will be given a special reward of one thousand taels of silver, one hundred weapons, ten pieces of jade, and pieces of cloth.
One hundred horses, Prince Yu will go to the palace to see the driver after he recovers from his injury. I admire this!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!"
Sun Xi rolled up the imperial edict again and handed it to Leng Yu respectfully. His face was solemn and he said seriously:
"The Emperor is very satisfied with the fact that you were able to get rid of Wu Hong this time, but I don't know where the tiger talisman in his hand is, so the Emperor specially ordered your servant to inform you. I hope you can find time to ask your men to check this place.
It’s best to find traces of Wu Yuanzhang.”
Leng Yu raised his hand to receive the imperial edict, and nodded solemnly, "I accept the edict and thank you."
He handed the imperial edict to Xiao Lingzi beside him and asked:
"Eunuch Liu, what happened to the Wu family?"
Liu Xi frowned and shook his head,
"All of them were sent to the frontier as slaves. Only the Crown Princess Wu Linlin remained in the Prince's Mansion. Because she was pregnant, the Emperor could not bear to let the royal heirs wander outside."
Is Wu Linlin pregnant?
Luo Lan was a little surprised when she heard the news. The last time she saw her, she hadn't heard about it. When did she become pregnant?
However, because she was pregnant and avoided the fate of being sent away, Wu Linlin's child came at the right time.
After Eunuch Sun announced the decree, he left with his people. Looking at the rewards all over the yard, Leng Yu's eyes were neither surprised nor happy, and he murmured:
“It is the most valuable thing to provide help when it is timely. What is the use of adding icing on the cake?”
After saying this, he said to Luo Lan:
"Madam, you handle it!"
When it came to handling money, Luo Lan did her job. She directly ordered the men in the house to move all the gold and silver treasures into the house, and ordered someone to find a tailor. With so much cloth, she should make more clothes for everyone.
Her decision surprised Ah Hong.
"Princess, these are all good materials. Isn't it a waste to make clothes for servants like us?"
Luo Lan held his hand on the smooth jade material and chuckled:
"No matter how good something is, if it is left there, it will be useless. If it is bitten by a mouse after many years, it will be worthless. Why not make use of it? Go to a tailor and leave the silver and pink ones for me.
Prince, you do the rest, let the tailor make two sets of clothes for each of the Hulu brothers, you and A Cai, A Gang and A Li each have two clothes, and the rest of the servants, each make one set!"
When Ah Cai heard this, she nodded happily, "Okay, I'll call the tailor right now."
Looking at her cheerful back, Ah Hong smiled helplessly, "This girl doesn't look dignified."
But it's no wonder that a little girl can wear clothes made of fine materials sent by the palace. I'm afraid there won't be any girl in the entire capital who can have such treatment.
Liu Dechang arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion at noon, and Leng Yu and Luo Lan received him in the front hall.
As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but said:
"It's great to have you back. I've been very busy these days. The soldiers under Wu Hong were all arrogant and unruly. I ordered people to kill two of them who were making trouble in the army, and the rest calmed down a bit.
But I think they still don’t want to obey my discipline from the bottom of their hearts. I’m old, and when Yu’er’s injury heals, you can use your energy to kill these people.”
Luo Lan looked at his father's flushed face and couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled:
"Dad, you are such a scheming general and there are still people you can't handle? My husband has not led troops for many years. Will those people obey him but not you?"
Liu Dechang waved his hands with a serious look on his face, "Lan'er, you don't know something. Now it has been spread in the capital that Prince Yu is brave and good at fighting. He killed the traitor Wu Hong in less than three rounds. Princess Yu has great medical skills and can
These two people who can bring people back to life will definitely be the most important and rare talents in Daning Kingdom in the future, so without Yu'er taking action, his name can already overwhelm all living beings."
Listening to Liu Dechang's somewhat exaggerated words, Leng Yu put down the tea cup in his hand and said solemnly:
"People are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong. I don't think this is a good thing, Lan'er. You should be more careful when doing things in the future."
Liu Dechang waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's a shame that the emperor still made you the general of the country. You are so cowardly? Who dares to mess with you in this capital? Don't say that your identity is there. Even if you are an ordinary person, I, Liu Dechang,
