Chapter 3 Entering Prince Yu’s Mansion for the First Time

Come back? Can she come back? She doesn't want to come back either.

She smiled contemptuously, and she didn't take anything from this house except the handkerchief.

I didn't see my uncle in the morning. Maybe he couldn't see Luo Lan being sent away, so he hid somewhere and cried.

When she walked out of this house, Luo Lan looked back at the home she had lived in for seventeen years, and a relaxed smile came out of the corner of her mouth. She was about to escape from here today. Even if there were many difficulties and dangers ahead, she would be willing.

My aunt borrowed a donkey from somewhere. There was a wooden cart tied behind the donkey's butt that could only accommodate two people. My aunt greeted her with a smile.

"Lan'er, I'll send you to get married today. There's nothing decent in our family. I'll lend you the donkey cart from Aunt Wang's house to take you there, and my aunt will go there in person."

Luo Lan was full of contempt. She didn't want to send her, but she wanted to get the silver reward, but now that's it, she doesn't care.

Looking back, looking around here again, she whispered:

"Goodbye, uncle."

Leaving this sentence, she stepped onto the worn wooden cart, and her aunt raised her whip and left.

The uncle hiding behind the eaves was already in tears at this time. He kept beating his head. He hated that he was incompetent and could not give Lan'er a good home, but what could he do? Luo Lan had lived at home for seventeen years. It was not that he didn't know the hardships she endured and the crimes she suffered, but she refused to tell him anything. He didn't have the courage to really blow his wife and children out for Luo Lan, so he could only turn a blind eye for all these years. He felt sorry for her. Now he wanted to send her into the kang again. He didn't dare to send her to her, so he could only watch her leave secretly.

The village where Luo Lan's family lives is not far from the capital. Even though the small donkey cart is slow, it has arrived in half an hour. After entering the capital, my aunt rushed the car directly to the gate of the palace.

It was a very high-end lintel. On the lintel: Yuwang Mansion, a few golden characters are particularly eye-catching.

The aunt turned around and wanted to tidy up Luo Lan's hair that was blown by the wind. She turned her face coldly and refused.

At this time, the two guards came over to question him coldly.

"What are you doing?"

My aunt hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

"Two, we came from the imperial list."

While speaking, she raised the imperial list to the guards. The guard looked at her, then looked at Luo Lan, and then said coldly:

"Wait, I'll go in and report."

The aunt nodded and bowed her head and rubbed her hands hard, looking very impatient.

Luo Lan just looked at her coldly, and the disdain at the corner of her mouth was beyond words.

But my aunt came forward without caring and asked about her well-being, "Lan'er, it's winter coming soon. Look how good this palace is! You won't be cold this time. If you serve the prince here well, you will be able to enjoy one more day of blessing."

Luo Lan disdained to talk to her. She just stared at the door in a daze. Will this place be where she lives?

After a while, the guard came out.

"Hey, the butler said, you can wait in the backyard of the royal palace for a while, and then he will inform the concubine Chang that she must see it in person."

The aunt frowned and muttered:

"All of them are dying, what's there to be picky about? It's really troublesome."

"What are you talking about?"

The guard raised the big knife in his hand and asked, "Tell you, don't talk nonsense when you enter the palace, don't walk around, stop waiting, or don't blame me for not reminding you if you lose your head."

After hearing this, my aunt was so scared that her face turned pale. She nodded quickly.

So, Luo Lan and her aunt were sent into a secluded yard, and two people were left at the door, as if they were afraid that they would run away.

This is the backyard of the royal palace, but it looks uninhabited for a long time and is very deserted.

My aunt was anxious in the yard, but Luo Lan sat calmly in the room without saying a word. She didn't want to talk to her aunt or say a word.

It is fake to say that she doesn't hate her, but after all, she has raised herself for seventeen years, so she can use this thousand taels of silver to break up.

They waited here for a day, and no one cared about lunch, as if they were forgotten.

My aunt asked several times, and the reply she gave was to wait. She had no choice but to wait!

It was not until the evening that the gate of the courtyard slowly opened, and my aunt hurriedly greeted her.

The woman who led the lead looked around forty years old, dressed in elegant and luxuriously, had delicate headdresses, but her face was very deserted.

When the butler saw the aunt waiting at the door, he shouted coldly:

"This is Concubine Chang, why don't you kneel down?"

Hearing this, my aunt hurriedly knelt down and waved her hand to Luo Lan, who was standing aside in a daze.

"Lan'er, come and kneel down."

Concubine Chang looked at Luo Lan and waved her hand directly, "You all go out, I'll say a few words to this girl."

Although my aunt was a little hesitant, she left under the leadership of the guards.

Luo Lan came to Concubine Chang and bowed according to the plot he saw in the TV series.

"The concubine is lucky."

Concubine Chang nodded with satisfaction, "Well, get up, your name is Lan'er?"

"The little woman's surname is Shui and her name is Luo Lan."

"Shui Luolan..."

Concubine Chang repeated, "This name is very elegant."

After pausing, Concubine Chang came to the chair in the room to sit down. She pointed to the chair opposite, "Sit down, I have a few words to say to you."

Luo Lan knew that she had already made mental preparations when she wanted to talk about the prince, so she was not polite and sat directly opposite her.

After hesitating for a moment, Concubine Chang asked:

"How much do you know about Prince Yu's situation?"

"I don't understand, I just heard from the emperor's list that he is sick."

Concubine Chang sighed and frowned with some resentment, "He is very sick. I don't want to make things difficult for anyone, so I explained it well in advance so that you won't regret it. If you agree, you can't run away like those women before. You have thought about it."

When he finished his last sentence, Concubine Chang's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Luo Lan knew that Concubine Chang was threatening in her words, intending to tell her that it was easy for her to come in, but it was difficult for her to get out.

It was already here, and she had something to retreat, so she shook her head coldly.

"I have nothing to regret, nor will I run away. It is my blessing to be able to serve the prince."

"No one forced me?" Concubine Chang seemed to believe it.

Luo Lan shook her head and answered decisively, "No."

"Is the person who sent you your mother?"

"No, my aunt, but she didn't force me, I voluntarily."

Concubine Chang sighed, "It's all rumored that Yu'er is a dying person. It seems that you are also a miserable person, otherwise you wouldn't have been sent in. Actually, I know that he has not had much time, but it's not easy for him to fight on the battlefield for so many years. I don't want him to die alone, so..."

Speaking of this, Concubine Chang seemed to be unable to continue talking, but Luo Lan said freely and easily:

"I know that Prince Ruoyu died suddenly and his wife would be buried with her."

"You know?"

Concubine Chang looked at her in surprise, "Will you do it too?"
