Leng Xi took a few steps forward with some embarrassment, looked into the Yangxin Hall, and then said:

"I have something to do and I have to go out. How is Father?"

Before Leng Yu could answer, Liu Xi replied excitedly:

"The emperor has been much better these days. Today is the sixth day that Princess Yu has been treating the emperor. After tomorrow, the emperor will be able to go to court and manage government affairs normally."

Hearing this, Leng Xi was stunned for a moment, then replied with a bright smile:

"Then the Fourth Emperor's sister-in-law has made a great contribution, and the father will definitely reward her well. Can I go in and see the emperor?"

"It's not possible now. Your sister-in-law, the Fourth Emperor, is giving medicine to your father. See you again tomorrow."

Leng Xi nodded with some disappointment, "Okay then! Fourth brother, I have something to tell you. Do you have time?"

Leng Yu nodded in agreement without hesitation,

"Okay, Xiao Lingzi, you guys stay here and I'll accompany Prince Xi to the Imperial Garden."

With these words behind him, he and Leng Xi walked side by side towards the Imperial Garden.

The two brothers were silent all the way until they entered the Royal Garden, and Leng Xi couldn't help but ask:

"Fourth brother, do you think my father was so cruel to my uncle back then? He was sent to a remote place. Why was he not allowed to return to the capital for twenty years?"

Leng Yu stood by the lake, looking at the clear water, and sighed:

"Perhaps my father feels that his uncle may pose a threat to his throne?"

"But they often played together when they were children, so their relationship should be very good? Why can't he tolerate his brother after he becomes the emperor?"

Leng Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, and replied sadly:

"Maybe I can't help myself, maybe my character has changed after sitting in that position!"

Leng Yu's words made Leng Xi shiver directly. It seems that what the mother-in-law said is right. Once a person ascends to the supreme position, he will start to be afraid of losing this position, so he will think about all the things that are wrong to him.

Eliminating those who pose a threat is a terrible cycle.

After a long silence, Leng Xi asked calmly:

"My father asked you to help him manage politics. Does he intend to pass the throne to you?"

"Maybe! But now that my father is in good health, the throne is still his."

Leng Xi sighed secretly and murmured:

"It seems that brother's good days are numbered."

Mentioning Leng Yun, Leng Xi felt a little sad. When he had backup power, he was the prince respected by thousands of people. Now that the backup power has been weakened, he has become a lonely man who no one cares about.

"it serves him right."

Leng Yu could forgive everyone, but he would not forgive Leng Yun. The reason why he did not kill him directly was because he wanted him to live to see that he was better than him. One day, he would definitely destroy his legs.

Let him also experience the feeling of life being worse than death.

Listening to Leng Yu's almost roaring words, Leng Xi suddenly felt a little sad. Maybe he should go see Leng Yun, otherwise, he might not be able to see him one day.

Thinking of this, he smiled at Leng Yu and said:

"Fourth brother, I'm leaving first."

Leng Yu didn't do much to persuade him to stay, "Okay, I guess Lan'er will be out soon, and I'll go back to the Yangxin Hall."

The two of them talked and walked side by side outside the imperial garden.

When the two were about to break up, Leng Xi looked at Leng Yu and suddenly asked:

"Fourth brother, Longwu Villa was attacked. Do you know about this?"

Leng Xi's unreasonable words made Leng Yu stunned for a moment, and then he asked curiously:

"How do you know? Did you go to Longwu Villa?"

Leng Xi pursed his lips and nodded, "Well, the assassin went to the capital."

Capital?

When Leng Yu heard this, he pondered for a while, then frowned and said:

"There is no grudge between Longwu Villa and the people in the capital. Who would attack them?"

Leng Xi's dark eyes flashed a few times, then he cupped his fists and said:

"Fourth brother, I'm leaving now, see you later."

Leaving these words behind, he strode away.

He just wanted to see from Leng Yu's eyes whether this matter had anything to do with him, but Leng Yu didn't look like he was pretending, maybe this matter really had nothing to do with him.

Thinking of this, he knitted his eyebrows together, changed his route out of the palace, turned around, and walked in another direction.

At this time, Wang Meng was sitting in the room bandaging his own wound. Although he couldn't care about the location of the wound, in order not to attract other people's attention, he could only do it by himself.

Wang Meng, who was summoned to the palace by Concubine Li three years ago, is the eunuch in charge of Liyuan. He has a separate living room.

But Leng Xi always felt that this Wang Meng was a little different. He didn't speak like a eunuch. He didn't often work in Liyuan, nor did he often move around the palace. In other words, he didn't live in the palace permanently at all. He just

Occasionally appears in Liyuan.

Therefore, when Long Changyun said that those assassins were from the capital, the first person he suspected was Wang Meng.

He came to the door of Wang Meng's room, took a deep breath, and prepared for a sudden attack, so as to catch him by surprise.

Thinking of this, he opened the door directly. Wang Meng, who had already noticed someone coming, had already put on his clothes. When he saw him coming in, he hurriedly greeted him and saluted.

"Prince Xi, why do you have time to come to this slave?"

Leng Xi glanced at him, pretending to be unintentional and said:

"It's okay, come and take a look around."

As he spoke, he sat down at the table in his room and looked around with alert eyes.

Wang Meng looked a little nervous. In order to divert Leng Xi's attention, he quickly poured him a glass of water and said respectfully:

"Prince Xi, please have tea."

After Leng Xi nodded, he picked up the tea cup and looked around with his peripheral vision while sipping the tea.

Suddenly, a bloody bandage beside the bed caught his attention. Only one head of the bandage was exposed, but he could see that it was stained with blood.

Leng Xi's eyes tightened, and he quickly moved his gaze, then put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and looked at Wang Meng, slowly moved in front of him, raised his hand and punched his injured shoulder, Wang Meng

He staggered and almost fell, but he still regained his composure and stood firm.

"Wang Meng, have you been out recently?"

"No."

There was no trace of emotion on Wang Meng's face, and he bowed and replied calmly:

"My servant has been in Liyuan these days and has not gone out."

Leng Xi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him. Suddenly, while he wasn't paying attention, he rushed to the bed with a dash, opened the curtain under the bed, pulled out the bloody bandage, and asked with a soft hum:

"What's this?"

Wang Meng's expression was a little flustered for a moment, but he quickly calmed down and said, "My slave accidentally knocked his leg while walking and got some blood. It's okay. Thank you, Lord Xi, for your concern."

Leng Xi threw the bloody bandage on the ground and walked towards him step by step. Wang Meng stood there with his head lowered and said nothing.

Leng Xi suddenly stood in front of him and raised his hand again to put on his injured shoulder. Wang Meng wanted to avoid it, but Leng Xi used a strong force and tore the clothes on his shoulders directly. The clothes inside were already soaked with water.

Blood stains.

Leng Xi raised his voice and roared loudly,

"What's going on?"

Wang Meng hurriedly backed away, "Prince Xi, this... I..."

"Tell me, did my mother-in-law ask you to kill Long Xiaomin? Is that right?"

"I don't know what Prince Xi is talking about."

Leng Xi snorted with his nose, stepped forward slowly, and continued to ask,

"Wang Meng, I have long suspected that you did it, and now you still dare not to admit it? Go and confront my mother and concubine."

Hearing this, Wang Meng suddenly knelt down and said, "Prince Xi, please spare my life. If Empress Li knows about this, she will definitely kill me."

Leng Xi bent down, looked at him condescendingly, and asked sternly,
