He really didn't want to take another look at this annoying woman, so he was showing mercy to her by not killing her to silence her.

He came alone to the back garden of Prince Xi's Mansion. He rarely came here because every time he came here, he would think of many sad past events.

Standing by the lake, looking at the trickling stream, he felt filled with emotion.

At this time, two Chu people were walking through the verandah of the garden, walking in a hurry, as if they had something urgent to do.

Although he had already agreed before agreeing to cooperate with the Chu people that he could not interfere no matter what the Chu people did in the capital or Prince Xi's Mansion, he still curiously followed the two people who were acting suspiciously.

.

He knew that Shui Luolan's two children were missing. He also suspected that people from Chu had done it, but he did not investigate. Shui Luolan did not take good care of her children. She asked for this.

, Besides, the Chu people must have their own reasons for doing this, so why should he meddle in other people's business?

He saw the two people entering a firewood shed not far from the back garden. No one would come here except the fireman. What were these two Chu people doing here?

He looked closer and saw four people standing guard outside the woodshed that no one cared about and even the servants were unwilling to come to.

This really surprised him. Could there be any secret hidden in it?

He raised his feet and walked forward. He wanted to go over and ask, but after taking two steps, he immediately stopped and shrank back. If he asked so rashly, the other party would definitely not let him in.

, even though it was in his own home.

Thinking of this, he turned and left.

This is his own home, and he knows better than anyone else that the woodshed actually has more than just this door. There is also an unknown back door on the other side, because no one has ever walked through there, and that door has long been blocked.

People have forgotten.

Now it seems that that door has come in handy.

He walked around the front yard and came to the most remote corner of Prince Xi's Mansion. The place was overgrown with weeds, and the grass had withered. It was obvious from the height of the weeds that no one had set foot here for a long time.

Standing there, he took a deep breath and suddenly laughed at himself.

It's really ridiculous that he would still use this method in his own home.

But for the sake of the future, I still have to endure it if I can.

Thinking of this, he pulled away the pile of weeds, opened the short foot door, and got in.

After entering the door, there was still a pile of weeds. Just as he was about to walk in, the conversation of two people came from inside. He squatted in the weeds, held his breath, and waited for the two people to leave.

After a while, it became quiet over there. He looked again and saw that there was no one there. Then he stood up and walked over quietly.

Although this yard is only for storing firewood, it is also a relatively spacious yard. There are four or five rooms in the yard, which are filled with firewood that will be burned by Prince Xi's Mansion throughout the winter.

He looked from room to room, but there didn't seem to be anything special except for firewood.

Just when he walked to the door of the woodshed in the middle, there was a rustling sound inside, and his expression suddenly became nervous.

Is there anyone here?

He squinted his eyes, poked a hole in the window paper, and looked inside.

But except for a pile of firewood, he saw nothing else.

It seemed that rats must have been infested. He was about to turn around when he suddenly heard a faint voice coming from inside.

"Brother, don't be afraid, An'an is with you."

"Don't be afraid, sister, mother will definitely find this place and she will definitely rescue us."

Is it a conversation between two children?

Leng Xi gasped in shock, and a look of panic suddenly flashed in his eyes.

These two children were indeed locked up here. It seemed that his guess was correct.

These Chu people are so insidious that they hid the children of Prince Yu in Prince Xi's mansion, so even gods would have a hard time finding them.

But what should he do? Let these two children go? Obviously not, the Chu people must have wanted to use these two children to threaten Leng Yu, or use them as bait to lure Leng Yu into being fooled, and then kill him.

Leng Yu's death is a great good thing for him, and it is also the key to his ability to successfully ascend the throne.

Those who want to do big things must be hateful and not stick to trivial matters.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and turned around. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the two young voices inside again.

"Brother, you have to hold on. Let An An sing a song for you. The sky is twinkling and shining, and the sky is full of little stars. They hang in the sky and shine brightly, like many little eyes..."

This song, for some reason, actually melted Leng Xi's heart.

He raised his hand and slapped himself on the face, gritting his teeth and thinking to himself,

In any case, they were also children of the Leng family. One was Leng Yun's orphan and the other was Leng Yu's child. They should call him uncle. How could he bear to see them suffer like this?

Besides, the Chu people used two children to win, but they couldn't win with force.

Thinking of this, he took off the belt from his waist and tied it on the lower half of his face, then quietly pushed the door open, then turned around and closed it.

He couldn't let the two children see his face, otherwise, even if the matter had nothing to do with him, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

When he passed through the firewood piles, he came to an open space in the innermost place. As expected, there were two children there. They had their hands and feet tied, huddled on the ground, but there was no fear on their faces.

Tenacity and strength.

When they saw Leng Xi, they immediately shut their mouths, and Huaiyu said directly and righteously:

"I told you already, if you come at me, don't hurt my sister."

Huaiyu's look made Leng Xi feel a little relieved. At least now he was not as selfish as his father. Perhaps Shui Luolan had educated him well.

After he glanced at Huaiyu, he squatted beside them and whispered:

"Don't make any noise. I'm not a bad person. I can let you out."

"Really?"

An An looked at him with wide eyes, "Will you really let us out?"

Leng Xi turned around and looked into An An's big eyes. His heart suddenly tightened. This look gave him a feeling of déjà vu.

"May I have your name?"

Although he knew that her name was given by his father, he still couldn't help but want to say a few more words to her.

An An pouted and timidly replied:

"My name is An An, little uncle, will you really save us? If so, I will definitely repay you one day."

Her words made Leng Xi stunned for a moment. He was really surprised that the little child's mouth was so sweet.

Although they were both members of the royal family, this was the first time for him to see these two children. What he didn't expect was that Leng Yu's child was so cute and smart, and he couldn't help but want to talk to her more.

A few sentences.

"Your name is An'an. It's such a nice name. Who gave it to you?"

"It's my mother. I also have a younger brother named Lele. My mother said that she hopes that we can live in peace and happiness every day."

After saying this, she looked at Huaiyu again and explained:

"My mother also said that Huaiyu's name is also very meaningful. She will tell my brother when he grows up."

Huaiyu?
