As soon as she said this, everyone suddenly felt that it made sense!

It turned out that being an emperor wasn’t a blissful thing!

Luo Cheng had already experienced several a.s.sa.s.sination attempts in the imperial mausoleum.

There were all kinds of schemes and traps. If he wasn’t careful, he would be in grave danger.

It could be said that there was nothing that Luo Cheng didn’t expect and nothing that Prince Fu didn’t expect.

In short, Prince Fu wanted to kill Luo Cheng at all costs.

However, Luo Cheng wouldn’t die no matter what. He was still living a good life.

Li Xiaoran also received news from Luo Cheng. Li Xiaoran wanted to help him, but she couldn’t run to the imperial mausoleum to look for Luo Cheng rashly.

Coincidentally, there was news from the capital about the Eldest Princess’s subordinates.

Li Xiaoran sent some people to persuade the people under the Eldest Princess not to submit to Prince Fu.

The progress wasn’t smooth, but it wasn’t bad either.

After Li Xiaoran received the news, she pondered carefully and had some guesses.

“Zi Cheng, we can’t stay in the cave anymore! We have to go out! The Eldest

Princess’s subordinates are still watching. Once my husband and the Third

Prince are defeated, those people won’t help them. Therefore, we have to hurry.

We have to pull these people to our side! If we delay, there will be trouble!”

Zi Cheng knew that once Li Xiaoran made up her mind, even Mr. Luo couldn’t stop her.

However, Li Xiaoran’s safety was also very important, so he had to consider how to protect Li Xiaoran.

“Madam, why don’t you let me try? You don’t have to take the risk!”

As Li Xiaoran looked at the green land outside the cave, she smiled.

“No, it’s useless if you go. I’m the only one who can convince them!”

Zi Cheng still didn’t understand and felt that Li Xiaoran was underestimating him.

Before he could say anything, Li Xiaoran turned around and smiled.

“I’m not belittling you, but I have abilities you don’t! For example, right now, I can see through your thoughts through your subtle change in expression!” When Zi Cheng heard this, he felt that this was impossible.

“You don’t believe me!” Li Xiaoran stared at Zi Cheng and voiced his doubts.

“No, Madam, you don’t have to look to know that I don’t believe you!” Zi Cheng said with a bitter smile.

What was going on?!

In order to go out and meet those people, Madam actually made up such a lie.

“I’m not lying. I can tell what a person is thinking based on a person’s subtle change in expression, so I have to meet those people in person and see their concerns before I can persuade them! Zi Cheng, we have to do something. We shouldn’t stay here and let our husband fight outside all alone! We’re family!”

When Zi Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, his eyes widened.

Did Madam really see through his thoughts?

This ability was too shocking!

“How is it? Do you want to go out there with me?” Li Xiaoran raised her eyebrows and asked Zi Cheng.

Zi Cheng nodded and said, “Madam, you can go, but I have to arrange everything before going! We can’t see those people. We can only create an opportunity to see them on the way! Moreover, we only have half an hour. After half an hour, we’ll retreat immediately!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and agreed.

There were specialties, so it was better to leave what she wasn’t good at to someone who was good at it.

She just had to meet the Eldest Princess’s subordinates!

Zi Cheng thought of something and asked, “If we leave, what will happen to the

Eldest Princess and Wei Li?”

Li Xiaoran said, “Wei Li’s internal energy is already crippled and she has been drugged. Just keep her under guard. As for the Eldest Princess, let’s keep her! She harmed the Old Master and betrayed him, so let Third Brother and my husband deal with her! After all, they’re the ones who have the final right to deal with the Eldest Princess!”

“Alright, I’ll go and arrange the Eldest Princess and Wei Li’s matters first. Then, I’ll arrange the matters outside. When the time is right, we’ll leave together!” Zi Cheng said.

Li Xiaoran nodded and let Zi Cheng get busy.

On the other side, after Ma Chongshan and Meng Yan were saved, they quickly went to a quiet farmstead.

After the doctor’s treatment, Ma Chongshan finally survived.

When Meng Yan learned that Ma Chongshan was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she fainted.

When she woke up again, it was already two days later.

After she regained consciousness, Meng Yan thought of Li Xiaoran and asked a man by the bed, “Where’s the consort? Did anything happen to the consort that

“Don’t worry! When we went to save you, the consort was no longer in danger!

To be honest, it’s all thanks to the consort that we saved you this time. Otherwise, you might have been dead by the time we rushed over!” The man lamented, “Sister, you made a good friend. She’s a loyal person!”

Meng Yan thought of something and said, “Brother, what are you doubting?! Luo Cheng and the consort have indeed encountered trouble this time. If you have the ability, help them!”

“Look at you. The reason you and Ma Chongshan suffered such a calamity is all because of the consort. Yet you don’t hate her and even speak up for her!” The man looked at Meng Yan as he teased.

Meng Yan said, “Why should I hate her? Xiaoran is also very innocent! She didn’t want this to happen! Besides, she risked her life to save me even though she knew that there was danger! Just because of this, I, Meng Yan, have decided that she is a good friend!”

The man said, “Alright, don’t worry! I’ll keep an eye on their situation! When they’re in danger, I’ll help!”

“Thank you, Brother! With our watercourse transportation buddies, we can definitely help them!” Meng Yan said happily.

It turned out that the man in front of him was the leader of the entire country’s watercourse transportation.

The people working for watercourse transportation wasn’t to be underestimated. Wherever there was a river, there was watercourse transportation people.

The watercourse transportation people kept a low profile and rarely interfered in other people’s matters, so it had been developing steadily all these years.

The reason Meng Yan could establish herself in the capital was because she had the support of the watercourse transportation people.

However, very few people knew about these things. Most of them only thought that Meng Yan was a bully, so many people were unwilling to provoke her.

Because of Meng Yan’s unique way of doing things, most daughters of wealthy families in the capital didn’t interact with Meng Yan.

Li Xiaoran was the first person to take the initiative to befriend Meng Yan.

“You like this friend that much?” the man asked with a smile.

“Of course!” Meng Yan replied with a smile..
