Wang Meng's forehead began to sweat. The composure he usually practiced was no longer effective at this time.

"This...I...I can't say it, please kill me."

"Kill you?"

Leng Xi suddenly stood up straight and snorted, "Kill you? Who will take care of your brother? Who will take care of your sick old mother at home?"

Wang Meng could hear that there was a threat in Leng Xi's words, and he suddenly raised his voice and begged:

"Prince Xi, I have no choice. Please don't tell Empress Li about this, otherwise she will kill me."

"Well, tell the truth. After all, she is my mother-in-law. Even if she asks you to do that, it must be for my own good. I will not go to settle accounts with her."

Hearing what Leng Xi said, Wang Meng finally let down his guard. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded,

"Yes, Empress Li is doing this for your own good. She doesn't want you to lose your bright future because of a woman."

Wang Meng's words were like a bolt from the blue, making Leng Xi's body sway. He hurriedly held on to the table next to him and nodded to himself.

"Okay, I understand. I will not question my mother-in-law about this matter, but if my mother-in-law asks you to hurt Long Xiaomin again in the future, you must tell me. Otherwise, not only my mother-in-law will kill you.

I will kill you too."

With these words behind him, he strode out of Wang Meng's room and galloped away angrily.

He really guessed that the person who wanted to kill Xiao Min was indeed his mother-in-law.

He didn't expect that his own mother would even kill the woman he loved. How could she be so cruel?

As he walked on the way out of the palace, his heart ached like a knife, but he laughed out loud. It was a mocking smile, a self-deprecating smile.

As the prince of a country, he couldn't even protect a woman. What was even more annoying was that the person who wanted to kill his beloved woman turned out to be his own mother.

This was a fact that he didn't want to accept and didn't dare to accept.

His mood was extremely bad, and a nameless feeling of heat overflowed throughout his body. He felt that he was going crazy. In order to let him compete for his father's throne, his mother-in-law did not hesitate to let him marry a woman he did not like at all. The power

Is it really that important?

After leaving the palace, Leng Xi did not return to Prince Xi's Mansion, but went directly to the Prince's Mansion. He wanted to see the eldest brother who was despised by everyone.

He knew that his eldest brother had done many wrong things, and he also knew that he was full of bad things, but he was his eldest brother and they were brothers. No matter what, he hoped that he could live.

When he arrived at the Prince's Mansion, Leng Yun was sitting on a rocking chair in the courtyard basking in the sun. He didn't look very decadent. This made Leng Xi feel relieved.

"Brother..."

Leng Xi, who was very good at disguising his emotions, looked at Leng Yun with a smile and walked towards him.

"Fifth brother is here!"

Leng Yun spoke, sat up straight, and then pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down! I haven't seen you for a long time."

Leng Xi sat down on the chair opposite him, nodded and said:

"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you?"

"Of course."

Leng Yun raised his eyebrows proudly, "I'm going to have a son soon, and I'm in a very good mood."

Hearing this, Leng Xi looked at him slightly excitedly, "That's great. Seeing you happy makes me feel relieved."

Leng Yun's somewhat pale face had an elusive smile, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said calmly:

"How could I be unhappy? No matter what, I am the crown prince now. My son will be the crown prince when he is born. He is my father's first grandson. I don't believe that my father will not like it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came out,

"Damn girl, you are looking for death. I told you that I want to eat sour food, but you have to give me spicy food. You are such a desperate little girl."

Leng Xi looked around and saw Wu Linlin walking out of the backyard with one hand on her back, belly held out, and a cheerful expression on her face. There was no trace of sadness on her face. Perhaps, her uncle and her grandfather's

It didn't have much impact on her.

Seeing her coming out, Leng Yun suddenly shouted angrily with a cold face:

"I told you to stay in the house, why did you come out? Go back inside."

Wu Linlin was stunned at first. When she saw Leng Xi, she pushed out her belly and said proudly:

"Fifth brother is here!"

Leng Xi stood up, bowed and saluted, "Hello, Mrs. Huang."

The corners of Wu Linlin's mouth raised slightly, and she raised her eyebrows and replied:

"Fifth brother, please sit down quickly! Ouch, this kid is so naughty, he's kicking me again."

Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, Leng Yun suddenly shouted sharply:

"Can't you hear me telling you to go back to your room? Do you have to be invited to go back?"

Seeing that Leng Yun's tone was a bit harsh, she was stunned for a moment, then blushed, turned around angrily, and walked towards the backyard.

Looking at her leaving figure, Leng Yun pointed at her and said angrily:

"I'm a month old and I'm still walking outside all the time. What should I do if my son is in danger and hurts me?"

Leng Xi shrugged, pursed his lips and chuckled:

"The imperial sister-in-law is very energetic and her voice is loud. She doesn't look like she has been pregnant for several months. Brother, please don't worry too much."

Leng Yun leaned his whole body on the rocking chair again, squinted at the sky, and asked in a cold voice:

"I heard that my father was ill? He was quite serious? He was cured by Liu Luolan again?"

Leng Xi did not expect that Leng Yun, who had been confined at home, was quite well informed.

He smiled wryly and nodded, "Brother knows quite a lot, and that is indeed the case."

A contemptuous smile appeared on Leng Yun's lips, and he said disdainfully:

"Don't look at me sitting at home. I know everything that happens outside, especially in the palace. Does the emperor intend to let Leng Yu become the emperor? Is there such a thing?"

This question made Leng Xi speechless for a moment. He shook his head, "I don't know about that, but it's true that my father asked him to temporarily handle the government affairs."

"Humph! He won't be beautiful for long. Sooner or later, I'm going to make him collapse on the bed again so that he can never stand up."

"Brother..."

Leng Xi looked at Leng Yun dumbly. When he was in the palace just now, the fourth brother said that he would not let the eldest brother go, and now the eldest brother said that he would embarrass the fourth brother.

He suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Is it true that fratricide is unavoidable?

At this moment, someone ran out from the backyard,

"Prince, Prince, Miss Yu keeps complaining that she has a stomachache, please go and have a look!"

After hearing this, Leng Yun stood up and said to the girl who came to report:

"Quickly, go find the imperial doctor."

After saying this, he was about to run to the backyard, but Leng Xi stopped him without knowing why.

"Brother, who is Miss Jade? Is it possible that you are hiding a beauty in the golden room of your prince's residence?"

Hearing this, Leng Yun was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh, it's your emperor's sister-in-law, I like to call her that, fifth brother, I won't accompany you anymore, you go back first!"

Leng Xi didn't have any doubts. When Leng Yun hurried to the backyard, he also left the Prince's Mansion.

…

After seven days of treatment, the emperor's condition finally eased, and Luo Lan decided not to give him intravenous drips anymore, but to switch to oral medicine.

In the Imperial Study Room,

The emperor looked energetically at Luo Lan and Leng Yu who were standing in front of him, and said with a smile on his face:
Chapter completed!
