"You don't really want us to swap places, so that I can stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion for you?"

"How could that be? How could I come up with such a bad idea?" Lan Mingyue chuckled.

"Hey, since there's someone pretending to be me here, why don't you take me out to play?" Lan Mingyue winked at An Qingqian mischievously.

"Not so good? There must be a lot of people watching the Prime Minister's Mansion right now. Once you are found to be not poisoned, the Emperor will definitely blame you."

An Qingqian shook her head. The emperor was currently keeping an eye on the Prime Minister's Mansion, so how could she dare to commit a crime against his will?

What if someone discovered that the person who was lying in bed and unable to get up from the poison appeared outside.

The Prime Minister will definitely be questioned by the Emperor, and Lan Mingyue will also be granted marriage by the Emperor.

"Well, just take me out secretly. I can disguise myself as your maid or servant, and no one will find out."

The more Lan Mingyue thought about it, the more she felt that this idea was feasible, and her tone became more excited.

"No." An Qingqian still shook her head and refused. This was not a trivial matter.

"Oh, just promise me. I swear, I will follow your instructions and do whatever you tell me to do. And, just one day and you can take me out."

Lan Mingyue no longer cared about her arrogance and face issues at this moment. As long as she could get out, she would do anything. She really wanted to be suffocated to death in the mansion.

"However, if we are not in the capital, we can go outside the city."

Lan Mingyue pulled a chair and sat directly in front of An Qingqian, holding her arm and starting to act coquettishly.

An Qingqian had never seen Lan Mingyue like this before, and was stunned for a moment.

Lan Mingyue actually hugged her arms and acted coquettishly towards her. This was simply unbelievable.

Seeing that An Qingqian did not refuse immediately, Lan Mingyue felt that there was a chance and worked harder.

"Really, I swear, I will never go rashly. I will follow you wherever you go, as long as I can get out of the house." Lan Mingyue blinked her eyes, like a kitten begging for food from its owner.

"This..." An Qingqian began to hesitate.

Lan Mingyue is a cheerful person. Even though there are rules, she still likes to go out and play and doesn't like to stay quietly in the house.

This matter really put her in a difficult position.

Fortunately, she was not lying in bed alone, but during this period of time, her activities were confined to this courtyard and she could not even go to other places in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Well, the person on the bed is Lan Mingyue. I'm just a little maid in this yard. What's the problem?"

Lan Mingyue raised her eyebrows and her voice softened.

"You can ask me to take you out, but you need to tell the Prime Minister or his wife about this."

Looking at Lan Mingyue who was constantly acting coquettishly, An Qingqian really couldn't bear to refuse.

"Ah? No, no." Hearing An Qingqian say this, Lan Mingyue immediately shook her head in denial.

"Dad will definitely not agree to let me go out. If I tell Dad about this, not only will he not allow me to go out, but he will also send someone to keep a close watch on me."

"If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do."

Seeing Lan Mingyue say this, An Qingqian could only give up.

After all, taking her out is indeed very risky.

Once discovered, not only the Prime Minister's Mansion but also the General's Mansion would be implicated.

"Wait, Xiaoshi." Lan Mingyue called out in a low voice.

Xiaoshi came in quickly. Lan Mingyue whispered a few words in her ear. Surprise flashed across Xiaoshi's face, and then she left with understanding.

"What's wrong? What new idea have you come up with?" An Qingqian looked at Lan Mingyue suspiciously.

"Didn't you say you would take me out as long as my family agrees? I'll ask Xiaoshi to invite my family over." Lan Mingyue said as a matter of course.

"But didn't you say that the Prime Minister would not agree to this?"

"Oh, don't worry about it. I have my own way." Lan Mingyue smiled mysteriously.

Xiaoshi came back quickly, and at the same time, another person followed.

An Qingqian looked closely and found that the person coming was Lan Mingyue's brother Lan Xiuting.

"Mr. Lan?"

An Qingqian looked at Lan Mingyue in surprise. Is this the family she found?

But if the prime minister disagrees, how could Lan Xiuting agree?

"Miss An?" Lan Xiuting was equally shocked when he saw An Qingqian.

He had just come back from outside, so he didn't know that An Qingqian came to the house to look for his sister.

When he saw Xiao Shi coming over just now, Lan Xiuting just thought that Lan Mingyue was bored again. Thinking that she had been locked in the yard all the time, he thought of coming over to talk to her and relieve her boredom.

Who knew that I would see An Qingqian when I came in here.

Seeing An Qingqian, Lan Xiuting couldn't suppress his joy.

"Brother." Lan Mingyue quickly jumped up from the chair, ran to Lan Xiuting in two steps, and grabbed his arms with both hands.

"Mingyue, Miss An is here, why are you so unruly?" Lan Xiuting looked at his sister helplessly.

"Oh, she is not a stranger." Lan Mingyue continued to act coquettishly.

"Miss An is here to talk to you, why did you ask me to come over?" Lan Xiuting pulled his sister's hand away.

An Qingqian was standing right in front of him, and Lan Xiuting didn't want her to see him being rude.

"Brother, Qingqian said that she wants to take me out to play, so she told you specially." Lan Mingyue giggled.

"Huh?" An Qingqian's eyes flashed with surprise. When did she say this?

It was Lan Mingyue who begged me, so how come I had to take her out now?

Before An Qingqian could say anything, she saw Lan Mingyue winking at her frantically, and it was clear in her eyes that she wanted him to help her.

An Qingqian looked at Lan Mingyue, then at Lan Xiuting, and meeting his puzzled eyes, she could only nod slightly.

"I saw Mingyue was a little depressed, so..."

An Qingqian didn't know what to say. She didn't have much contact with Lan Xiuting. She only knew that he was a polite man. She felt a little guilty about lying to him, so she hesitated.

"Since Miss An wants to take you out, then go ahead. Be careful and don't let outsiders notice anything unusual." Seeing that An Qingqian was speaking for his sister, Lan Xiuting immediately agreed.

"Brother, just..." Lan Mingyue thought Lan Xiuting would not agree, and was about to beg again, but the next second she suddenly realized that her brother agreed.

He agreed without even hesitating! ?

"Huh? You agree so soon?" Lan Mingyue stared at her brother in disbelief.

An Qingqian was also stunned. She had thought that Lan Xiuting would not agree to this matter, or that it would take a long time to agree. She did not expect him to agree so easily.

"Well, Miss An has always been steady and self-controlled, and she knows how to handle things in moderation. There won't be any problems with her taking you with her." Lan Xiuting smiled gently, and his words showed his trust in An Qingqian.
