Chapter 407 People who look alike
Xiao Lingzi and Zhang Yuan stayed outside Prince Xi's Mansion for three days and finally found some clues. However, there was one thing they couldn't decide on, so they rushed to Prince Yu's Mansion.
When he saw Luo Lan, Zhang Yuan scratched his head and asked in surprise:
"Princess, did you go to Prince Xi's Mansion last night?"
This question made some monks like Luo Lan confused. He looked at Zhang Yuan in confusion.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Yuan and Xiao Lingzi looked at each other and said with a smile:
"I just said that person is not the princess. Ling Ge did not say it was you. I have never seen you wearing clothes like that. Besides, it is impossible for you to go to Prince Xi's Mansion in the middle of the night."
Xiao Lingzi blinked a few times with erratic eyes, then frowned and murmured:
"But the back of that person looks like the princess!"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
Seeing these two people in a fog, Luo Lan waved his hands to interrupt them impatiently.
Xiao Lingzi hurriedly explained:
"Last night, Zhang Yuan and I saw a woman with the same figure as you outside Prince Xi's Mansion. She also said she was going to the Western Regions to do something. I thought it was you. I was going to say hello. Zhang Yuanfeila
He looked at me and said I had the wrong person."
Hearing this, Luo Lan's expression suddenly became tense, and she asked again:
"What exactly did they say?"
Xiao Lingzi shook his head,
"I didn't quite hear it clearly. The lower half of that woman's face was covered with a black gauze, but they must have mentioned the word "Western Regions" and told another person to wait for good news about her."
A trace of fear flashed in Luo Lan's eyes, and then he asked:
"That woman only looks like me from the back. Does she look like me in other places?"
Zhang Yuan raised his hand as if he thought of something and said:
"Yes, her eyes are quite similar to yours, but I can see them through the moonlight. There is hatred in her eyes, otherwise I would have thought they were you."
"Was Lengxi there at that time?"
Xiao Lingzi and Zhang Yuan shook their heads together, "He's not here. By the way, one of those people seems to be the stupid son of the owner of the Li family village."
What?
Their words made Luo Lan increasingly suspicious...
Her eyebrows flashed a few times, and then she murmured:
"Could it be that the son of Master Li is pretending to be stupid? But why did he go to Prince Xi's Mansion? How did he get involved with people from the Western Regions? What's going on with that woman who looks like me?"
A lot of questions were lingering in her mind. After pondering for a while, she said with sharp eyes:
"What else have you heard?"
Zhang Yuan and Xiao Lingzi began to tell Luo Lan one by one what they had discovered in the past few days.
It turns out that the strangers who come in and out of Xiwang Mansion will put on the clothes of the servants of Xiwang Mansion during the day and only come out at night. Moreover, more and more strangers have entered Xiwang Mansion in the past few days. Xiwang Mansion
However, his servants turned a deaf ear to these people and allowed them to enter and leave Prince Xi's Mansion as they pleased.
Among these people, there were both men and women, and judging from their accents, they were not from the capital. They were probably from the Western Regions who had sneaked into the capital.
After hearing this, Luo Lan ordered with a dark expression:
"Zhang Yuan, go to Changliu Village and call Shui Chunhua. Xiao Lingzi, go to the military camp and call my father and tell him that I have something urgent to see him."
"Yes, Princess."
Xiao Lingzi and Zhang Yuan took the order together and retreated.
Ah Hong saw that Luo Lan's face was not very good-looking and asked in a low voice:
"Princess, what are you worried about?"
Luo Lan's eyes darkened and she shook her head secretly.
"I don't know. I always feel that this matter is not that simple. These people from the Western Regions must be plotting something big, or in other words, they are plotting to harm Leng Yu."
"Then does this matter have something to do with Prince Xi?"
"Maybe, among these people are people from Lijiazhuang. It was Lengxi who saved the people from Lijiazhuang. In addition, Leng Yu is the prince now. If nothing else happens, he will be the heir to the throne in the future. In the past few years, Lengxi has continued to
To expand his own strength, there is no guarantee that he will not miss this throne. If he wants to sit on this throne, he can only let Leng Yu..."
At this point, she covered her mouth, unable to speak any more, and her heart suddenly felt as if something had hit her, causing a sharp pain.
After a while, Zhang Yuan hurried back, "Princess, Shui Chunhua's family no longer lives in Changliu Village."
Hearing this, Luo Lan looked at her in surprise, "Where have they gone?"
"According to the villagers, several people took them away a few days ago. Shui Chunhua's mother happily told the villagers that they were rich and were going to live a good life."
This is a bit strange. After what happened in Lijiazhuang, Shui Chunhua and Leng Xi seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, but now their family suddenly disappeared?
Just when she was doubting this, Liu Dechang hurriedly walked in with big steps.
Before anyone could come in, he shouted loudly:
"Daughter, I heard you called me, and you were quite anxious? What happened?"
Luo Lan stood up from the chair and motioned for Liu Dechang to sit down. Then he sat down again and said with a serious face:
"Dad, there is something that my daughter can't make up her mind about, so she wants to come to you to discuss it."
Liu Dechang waved his hand nonchalantly, "Just tell me, as long as dad is here, dad will take care of everything for you."
Luo Lan had no intention of joking with him. A dim light flashed in her eyes, and then she said sadly:
"Dad, I think something is going to happen to Leng Yu..."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Liu Dechang blushed and interrupted her, "When you are away from home, it is most taboo to say unlucky words. Yu'er is victorious in every battle, how could something happen?"
Luo Lan shook his head in fear,
"Dad, there is a woman who looks a lot like me going to the Western Regions. I think they want to set a trap for Leng Yu. If he falls for it, the consequences will be disastrous."
"What did you say?"
Liu Dechang suddenly stood up from his chair and looked at her in surprise, "You said someone wants to use despicable means to harm Yu'er?"
Luo Lan's brows tightened and she shook her head slightly.
"I can't say for sure, but I have this hunch. Xiao Lingzi and Zhang Yuan almost thought that woman was me. Do you think Leng Yu will also admit his mistake? If they use this to lure Leng Yu into the trap,
, I really can’t imagine what will happen next.”
Thinking of this, she suddenly pressed her forehead with her hand, and a burst of unfounded worry filled her heart.
"Hmph! I will go to the palace now to request the emperor's order and personally lead the troops to support Leng Yu."
"Dad, you can't leave the capital. There are countless Chu people stationed in the capital now. If you leave, the imperial city will be in danger."
"What should we do?" Liu Dechang stood up from his chair and paced around with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Lingzi was the first to say:
"General, Princess, why don't Zhang Yuan and I rush to the Western Regions..."
Luo Lan still shook his head, "It's useless for you to go. I have already decided that I will go there in person, so as to prevent Leng Yu from being fooled."
Hearing what she said, Liu Dechang was the first to wave his hand and refuse, "No, no, the capital is far away from Chu State. How can you, a woman, do it? Besides, there are three children at home. What will happen if you leave?"
At this time, Luo Lan was extremely calm. She looked at Liu Dechang and said seriously:
"Dad, no matter how far or how difficult it is, I must save Leng Yu. I don't ask him to make great achievements, I just ask him to come back safely. I will explain the affairs of Prince Yu's Mansion, Xiao Lingzi
You and Ah Hong will go with me, while Zhang Yuan and Ah Cai will stay in Prince Yu's Mansion and take good care of the three children and this family."
Seeing her firm attitude, Liu Dechang sighed and then said:
"Do you want to report it to the emperor?"
"don't want."
Luo Lan interrupted him directly, "Don't tell anyone about my departure from the capital. During my absence, none of the three children are allowed to leave the house. Dad, you just need to send more people to Prince Yu's Mansion.
