Chapter 1,452
Xiao Lintian was shaken by what Ling Yu said. Ling Yu seized the opportunity and hugged his arm intimately.
"Xiao Lintian, just let me go! I hope we can respect each other. I don't want to be imprisoned in the palace for the rest of my life. I hope I can do what I want to do!"
"My uncle's family is very kind to us brothers and sisters. If anything happens to Ling Wan, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!"
After much hard work, Xiao Lintian was finally convinced by Ling Yu.
He said helplessly: "I let you go, but you have to promise me that you must take good care of yourself!"
"I will!"
Ling Yu explained Xiao Lintian and breathed a sigh of relief.
This time she insisted on going to Zhengzhou to look for Ling Wan. In addition to worrying about Ling Wan's safety, she also wanted to test Xiao Lintian.
Ling Yu was worried that Xiao Lintian would be as domineering as before after becoming emperor, clinging to the mentality of a big man and confining herself to the harem to be a good wife and mother.
Thinking about this kind of life made Ling Yu shudder, so she found this opportunity and used it to test Xiao Lintian.
First domain name
Ling Yu was very satisfied with Xiao Lintian's attitude. At least he could listen to what she said and began to learn to respect herself.
Ling Yu met with the Empress Dowager in private and asked the Empress Dowager to help him manage the harem when she was not in the palace.
The Empress Dowager did not approve of Ling Yu's risking his own life at first, but after all, she had also fought on horseback in the north and south, and knew that it would be good for Ling Yu to go out and see things, so she graciously agreed.
Ling Yu ordered some of Tao Zi's maids who were skilled in martial arts and left Ling Xuan to assist the Empress Dowager.
The group of people quietly left the palace and headed for Zhengzhou.
In a hurry, Ling Yu and the others rode horses. Ling Yu pretended to be a merchant, and the other maids pretended to be her servants.
After driving for two consecutive days, Tao Zi met at an inn and went to inquire about Ling Wan's whereabouts, but no one had seen Ling Wan.
Ling Yu thought that Ling Wan was very smart and must have been disguised when she came out, so she asked Tao Zi to ask a young man of the same age who spoke with a Beijing accent.
On the third day, I finally asked someone similar to Ling Wan in an inn and learned that Ling Wan's destination was Xingyang.
Ling Yu, Tao Zi and the others ran towards Xingyang quickly without taking a rest.
Along the way, they encountered some defeated soldiers who were robbing nearby villages of food.
Ling Yu and Tao Zi did not confront each other head-on. When they saw a lone soldier, Ling Yu winked.
Tao Zi and Han Yu quietly stepped forward, stabbed the soldier unconscious with his sword and dragged him to an abandoned farmhouse for interrogation.
The soldier woke up and saw several young men standing in front of him. He immediately begged for mercy: "Heroes, please don't kill me. I also come from a poor family. I have no choice but to become a soldier!"
Ling Yu saw that this soldier was only about fifteen years old, with a thin figure and a sloppy military uniform.
She said calmly: "If you answer my questions well and satisfy me, I will let you go!"
"Yes...you must answer well!" the soldier said honestly.
"Are you Lord Zhang's garrison? Have you captured Xingyang? What is the situation in Xingyang now?"
Ling Yu asked the question she was most concerned about.
When she left the imperial capital, An Zhe was in Xingyang and was besieged by Master Zhang's garrison.
Ling Yu was worried that An Zhe would not be able to defend Xingyang and would be killed by Lord Zhang.
"The small one is indeed a garrison, but we didn't capture Xingyang!"
The soldier smiled bitterly: "The leader of Xingyang is very powerful. He beat us to a pulp. You should have seen our people running around along the way. They were scattered by them!"
"Our commander, General Yang, has been killed, and Xingyang is still guarded by County Lord Cao!"
Ling Yu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What about Mr. An? Is he still in Xingyang?"
