Since entering Xiangfan City, Yu Jinlan has been deeply shocked by the warm and simple folk customs, bustling streets, and orderly shops.
He did not expect that the county town under the management of the Twelve Palaces would be such a peaceful and prosperous scene. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, produced and sold their own goods, and lived comfortably. He did not even see the county government's police officers.
Patrolling the streets.
After marveling, he began to feel a little uneasy. What should he do if the Zodiac wants to overthrow his regime one day?
In Nanshan Village, they had long received the news that Yu Jinlan had appeared incognito. Everyone was gearing up and eager to avenge the second prince, but Lin Leer comforted him.
"It's easy to kill someone. But how can we repay the pain he caused us so easily? I want Yu Jinlan to taste the pain." She stood on the steps of the cottage, overlooking the distance.
The mountains and rivers, with a smile, "It must be very interesting to fall from the highest authority to the bottomless abyss."
Yu Jinlan took dozens of internal masters and booked the best inn in the city. He was waiting for the master of the Twelve Palaces to show up. But after waiting for three days in a row, not to mention the master, he and even the ordinary palace guests
Never before. No matter how good his demeanor was, it would all be gone now.
"It's really disgusting. Who does she think I am? Not to mention the provocations several times, I came in person and she still turned a blind eye?!"
Yu Jinlan was furious in the room, pacing back and forth. Sooner or later, he would have to eradicate this twelve palaces! If they were left alone, he would not be able to live a steady life as an emperor!
"Your Majesty, the people from the Twelve Palaces are here."
Outside the door, the guard whispered.
He suddenly stopped his feet, and his phoenix eyes that were somewhat similar to Yu Jinchen closed, a bright light flashed, and then he immediately regained the image of the gentle emperor in front of him, and slowly opened the door.
On the first floor of the inn, people lined up on both sides, all staring at each other eagerly. The shopkeeper and the waiter had already been invited into the kitchen.
Lin Leer was dressed very simply, sitting leisurely at the table and eating melon seeds. Ah Ke and Basang were standing behind each other. Guards in gray shirts were guarding the door majestically. They heard someone coming from the stairwell.
There was a noise, and she raised her eyes and stared at Yu Jinlan who was slowly walking down.
Yu Jinlan was also sizing up this rumored omnipotent woman. Suddenly, he frowned as if he remembered something.
is her?
The woman he saw in the Villa that day, based on the way Yu Jinchen cared for her at that time, he thought she was just an ordinary concubine. Unexpectedly, she would take over Yu Jinchen's position, and she would also grow the Twelve Palaces to the point where they were close to the imperial court.
The point!
Lin Leer spat out the melon seed skin, clapped her hands, sat lazily on the chair, without moving her buttocks, and smiled, "Haha, it seems that the emperor has thought of me."
Yu Jinlan walked over with a smile, sat opposite her, and looked like she suddenly realized, "Oh, it turns out it's you. I'm really surprised."
Lin Leer opened her wide eyes innocently and blinked a few times, "Your Majesty, don't be surprised, because something that will make you even more 'surprised' is yet to come."
Yu Jinlan's expression changed slightly, but he still had a friendly smile on his cheeks, "No matter how powerful the Twelve Palaces are, they are just a martial arts sect. Do you think I will be afraid of you?"
Lin Leer smiled and raised an eyebrow, "How about this, let's make a bet? Let's see how long you can sit on the throne? Haha, I bet you can only take one year at most. What about you? Make a bet for yourself
What note?"
Yu Jinlan's smile gradually froze, "What do you want? Jinchen's matter has nothing to do with me at all——"
Lin Leer waved her hand, "Why does the Emperor bring up those old things? Let's talk about business. I heard that the Emperor came all the way here. I was really shocked. I didn't know that the Emperor
Why would you be so condescending for something so important?"
Yu Jinlan took a deep breath, and even though her teeth were itching with hatred, she still smiled and said, "I am here this time to ask you, the Zodiac, for a favor."
Then, he acted as if the other party had no idea at all, and gave a general explanation of the matter. Then he said, "I hope you can help Haoyuechao this time, and I... will remember your favor." At the end,
Lin Leer seemed to hear the sound of him grinding his teeth.
"Help..." Lin Leer held her chin in one hand and said a little embarrassedly, "That is someone else's country's business, why should I help?"
Yu Jinlan could no longer force the smile on his face. He turned cold, glared at Lin Leer and lowered his voice and said, "What on earth do you want? You asked me to beg you. I'm here, what else do you want?"
?”
"Haha," Lin Le'er laughed, "Now that the emperor has spoken out, we don't have to hide and act here anymore." She looked at him with a stern look and said word by word, "I want to
Kneel down and kowtow to Yu Jinchen to apologize!"
"What did you say?!" Yu Jinlan stood up with a slap on the table, his face turned livid with anger. The Ouchi masters behind him also drew their swords and glared fiercely at this side.
Ah Ke and Basang looked at them coldly. The guards in gray shirts remained motionless, but they were exuding a powerful aura. They looked like real masters who would definitely kill them if they dared to move.
"I don't have the habit of repeating what I said a second time." At this time, Lin Le'er was vaguely arrogant like Yu Jinchen, and also had an overwhelming force, "Well, do as I say, or
Well, just go back to the palace and wait to tell Ming Cangxiang."
"You——" Yu Jinlan's chest heaved violently. The image of an emperor he usually maintained had been completely destroyed by Lin Leer.
Lin Leer blinked her eyes and said kindly, "Your Majesty, let me remind you. With Yu Jinchen gone, no one will fight to protect the country for you anymore. If Ming Cangxiang is angered, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive for a year."
Even the emperor can't do it anymore. I'm only giving you this one chance, it's up to you." After saying that, he stood up and said, "Let's go back and have lunch."
"etc--"
Yu Jinlan's beautiful face was a little distorted, and cold sweat broke out. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"
****
Lin Leer walked out in a happy mood, "Basang, when the people from the Haoyue Dynasty come, give them the prescriptions to prevent and treat the epidemic. After all, the common people are the victims."
"Yes, miss."
After pushing open the door of the inn and seeing the two people, one big and one small, standing outside, Lin Leer was stunned for a moment, "Shao Feng?"
Ming Shaofeng was still wearing a white shirt that had not changed for thousands of years. It reflected dazzling halos under the sunlight. He was so handsome that he attracted the attention of everyone on the street. He held Yu Yu's hand and walked over, looking calm.
His gaze fell on her body and became softer, "I knew that the emperor of Xiaoyun Kingdom was coming. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I came to take a look."
Lin Leer raised her eyebrows suspiciously, lowered her head and stared at the little one standing next to Ming Shaofeng, "Boy, it's you."
Yuyu raised her cute little face, looked at her mother and smiled sweetly, "It's not me anymore, it's Ah Cai." Ah Cai is a snow-white young eagle given to Yuyu by Jiugong. Like him, he is only three years old.
, but I can already deliver letters to my little master.
"You are the only one who has many bad ideas." Lin Leer tapped his forehead, then asked Ah Ke to pick him up, while she and Ming Shaofeng walked slowly along the street.
"Have you found him?" Ming Shaofeng spoke first.
Lin Leer lowered her eyes, shook her head, and smiled a little forcedly, "I haven't stopped looking for him in the past four years, but there has been no news."
Turning his head and looking at her somewhat lonely expression, Ming Shaofeng patted her shoulder comfortingly, but said nothing. He knew that everyone knew the result, but she didn't want to admit it. However,
I can see her living so strongly, so what if she clings to a vain hope?
"Haha," Lin Leer deliberately changed the topic and said with a smile, "I really want to apologize to you on behalf of our boy, who always pesters you when there is nothing wrong."
Ming Shaofeng lowered his eyes and smiled elegantly, "I regard him as my son."
Lin Leer was startled, "Really?" She quickly replied, picked up Yu Yu, and stuffed it into him like a troublesome thing, "Hey, from now on he will be your son, you have to be responsible for it."
If he marries a wife and has children, then I can let him come to my place to take care of himself in his old age."
"Is what Mom said true?" Yu Yu happily hugged Ming Shaofeng's neck, "Does Yu Yu want to be Uncle Feng's son? Great!" No longer looking at Lin Leer, his little hands hurriedly
He grabbed Ming Shaofeng's clothes and said, "Uncle Feng, you have to wait for Yu Yu. Yu Yu goes back to pack his things, and then he will go back to Tianshan with you."
Ming Shaofeng hugged Yu Yu dumbfounded and glared at Lin Leer accusingly, "Yue'er, do you usually bully Yu Yu?"
"How can I?!"
"No?" Ming Shaofeng obviously couldn't believe her. Instead, he looked at the beautiful and lovely Yu Yu lovingly, "If not, why did Yu Yu want to follow me? It must be that you, a mother, didn't do a good job and let Yu Yu down.
Already."
Yu Yu nodded hurriedly and quickly took the opportunity to complain, "Uncle Feng, Mom is so bad. She often pinches Yu Yu's face. It hurts, but Mom is still laughing."
"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Ming Shaofeng frowned.
Lin Leer secretly screamed something bad, and quickly pointed at Yu Yu in his arms and started to accuse, "This kid always paints my face while I'm asleep."
"My mother is even worse. She dressed Yuyu in girl's clothes, which made everyone in the village laugh!"
"What about you? You threw the frog while my mother was in the hot spring!"
"What about mother? Just now, she wanted to give Yuyu away!"
"..."
Lin Leer was completely speechless.
Seeing the mother and son quarreling in the street, everyone in Nanshan village was not surprised and walked around on both sides. Ming Shaofeng laughed helplessly. This is the strange relationship between Lin Leer and Yu Yu. From the day Yu Yu could talk,
It was doomed from the beginning. As Yuyu grew up day by day, Lin Leer was defeated more and more often.
