Chapter 540 What He Said Is True
In the princess's mansion.
After returning from Prince Yi's Mansion last night, Lu Wan had been guessing who the murderer of Zheng Qi was. He tossed and turned on the bed until the second half of the night before falling asleep.
Lancao knew that she slept late last night, so she didn't rush to wake her up in the morning and let her sleep for a while.
The servants in the yard were also led away by Lancao to avoid waking Lu Wan.
Inside the house, Lu Wan had already woken up, but probably because he was tired of doing things for the victims at the City God Temple yesterday. Lu Wan's whole body was a little sore, so he continued to stay in the bed and did not rush to get up...
During this period, Lancao quietly came into the house to see her. When she saw her lying inward with her eyes closed, she thought she was still sleeping, so she quietly left with her toes.
But after a while, Lu Wan heard the sound of opening the door again and walked towards her bed.
Lu Wan thought that Lancao had something to come in, and thought that during the period when she was locked in the palace, there were still many things in the mansion that had not been dealt with, and Menglou had something waiting for her to decide, so she couldn't sleep anymore and planned to get up.
She was about to sit up, but one side of the bed was sinking. The next moment, a pair of big hands hugged her from behind.
Lu Wan was shocked and was about to scream, but the familiar fragrance of pine wood came from her nose, and she was stunned for a moment.
It's Li Yi?!
How could he come at this time?
Just when she was shocked and suspicious, a dull sound came from behind her.
"Lu Wan..."
The man's voice was silent and called her softly.
Lu Wan was held by him, and his body could not move, and he could not look back and look at him.
Even so, she still heard something strange from his tone.
She guessed that it might be related to what happened at his house last night, so she didn't speak up and waited for his next sentence.
But Li Yi did not speak anymore, but just hugged her tightly and buried her head on the back of her neck.
The man sprayed on the back of her neck with a warm breath, making it numb.
Lu Wan's heartbeats faster. She turned her head to look at him and asked, "What's wrong with your highness?"
Li Yi did not answer her.
Lu Wan looked at the sky getting brighter and brighter outside, but couldn't guess what he was going to do.
But no matter what, he cannot appear here at this time.
In this way, Lu Wan went to pry open his hand that he placed on his waist and said, "Your Highness..."
"I am tired, let me lie down for a while, for a while..."
The man tightened his big hand on her waist for a moment, his voice was low and hoarse, unable to hide his fatigue.
When Lu Wan heard this, he felt inexplicably distressed and unconsciously let him hold it.
The room became quiet, and the sun came in from outside bit by bit, shining on the curtain of the sky-green embroidered flowers, leaving mottled light and shadows in the bed.
Lu Wan looked at the light and shadow in front of him for a moment, thinking that he was in a dream.
But the man's slightly heavy and long breathing sound came from his ears, telling her that everything was true.
Lu Wan lowered her head quietly and looked at the big hand tied around her waist.
The man's fingers are distinctive, slender and powerful, and she is so familiar with them.
The blood jade ring on it was also familiar to her. Even with the posture of his holding her, she was as tight and domineering as ever, and she could not resist.
Lu Wan's heart was sour and had an unspeakable bitter taste.
She didn't know what happened to him, and knew that he could not appear here like this, but her hand still covered the back of his hand involuntarily.
Her hands were small, with ten fingers slender and soft, like a light feather covering the back of his hand.
A simple move made the man behind him breathe absent.
Lu Wan thought he was asleep, but the next moment, her hands on the back of his hand were already held in his palm by him, and her body was also led by him to face him directly.
The moment when his eyes met, Lu Wan clearly saw the red bloodshots in his eyes, the gloom and even sadness that flashed by.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Wan suddenly became worried.
Li Yi concealed the emotions in his heart and curled his lips at her: "It's okay, I just miss you."
His voice was silence and hoarse, and his smile was very reluctant. How could he hide it from Lu Wan?
"Is something happened? Tell me quickly." Lu Wan asked in his eyes.
Her eyes were clear and bright, and she looked at him seriously.
Li Yi saw from her eyes that he was haggard and even a little embarrassed.
This look is so similar to the way he looked when he asked to see his mother in the back of Shangri Palace when he was thirteen years old but was rejected.
At that time, he could follow Mr. Fan and ride a higher than him to escape to the northwest.
And now, he could only escape from her...
"Lu Wan, Mother is going to go with Zhuying, and the family of three is going to reunite. I am the extra one. I have nothing, you are the only one..."
He raised his hand to stroke her cheek, looked at her with red eyes: "So, I will definitely not let you leave me, sure!"
When Lu Wan heard this, his eyes were shocked - Did the fallen shadow go to find Concubine Lan last night?
She was too surprised. After a while, she asked in a daze: "Your Highness... have they recognized each other?!"
Li Yi nodded and laughed sarcastically: "Fortunately, we are still worried that there will be conflicts between mother and son when they meet, but on the contrary, he said he wanted to take his mother away, and the mother agreed immediately..."
Li Yi spoke easily, but Lu Wan heard the cold sweat.
The claw openly entered the palace to meet Concubine Lan and wanted to take her away. It was supposed to be stimulated by his senior brother being killed.
As the most favored concubine of the dynasty, Concubine Kelan was even about to become the mother of the crown prince. She actually agreed to follow the Celestial Movie. If the emperor knew about it, it would be a disaster.
"Then... did you meet with the Pearl last night? What did you say?"
Lu Wan guessed that since Li Yi discovered that the fallen shadow appeared, it would be impossible for him not to show up in such a situation.
In this way, according to his temperament, I am afraid that the two of them will fight head-on.
If this is the case, Concubine Lan is sandwiched between the two brothers, what should she do?
Li Yi saw through her worry at first sight and laughed sarcastically: "Don't worry, my father was also Shangli Palace at that time, so I wouldn't disturb him, so I let him go."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but Li Yi said again: "However, I asked him to meet him at the mass grave tonight and return his senior brother's body to him."
Lu Wan was shocked again.
Based on her understanding of Li Yi, he would never be as simple as simply returning the body to the Pearl.
She looked up at him and asked hesitantly, "What does Your Highness want to do?"
Li Yi's eyes were slightly cold and he said, "He wants to take his mother away, just to kill her. I will not sit idly by and watch!"
After saying that, he let go of her and got up and prepared to leave.
But Lu Wan grabbed it.
Lu Wan said in a panic with a white face: "Your Highness, the Falling Sutra told me that as long as he rescues his senior brother, they will leave Beijing/city and never come back..."
"I think what he said he wanted to take the Empress away must be a momentary angry word, and it won't be true, so please think twice before you go back..."
Li Yi looked back at her, curled his lips and smiled coldly.
