Except for the captain of the Praetorian Guard, the emperor did not bring many people, after all, it was inconvenient to publicize this matter.

If it was daytime, he only needed to pass an order down and let the national teacher release him, but it was late at night, and the national teacher had already left the palace and returned to the national teacher's mansion, and the palace gate was closed.

The place of detention is not far from the Dragon Palace where the emperor lives, and he was a little upset by Concubine Zhang Defei's crying, and he was unhappy thinking about being put on by the national teacher like this, so the emperor went out in person.

Of course, Concubine Zhang De, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Feng followed.

Not for anything else, just because the emperor was afraid that he would not recognize his emperor among a bunch of children.

The dungeon mechanism was opened, and the Emperor was accompanied by the Praetorian Guard Captain and three women to the place where the children were kept. In the tunnel winding downward, the children's cries were miserable, some of them were hoarse, some were tired of crying and fell asleep, and when they saw someone coming, those children did not dare to cry.

However, Concubine Zhang, Concubine Yu, and Concubine Feng looked at the four cells and did not find their children.

The emperor groaned slightly, and immediately became furious, and ordered the captain next to him: "Send someone to block the palace immediately and investigate it strictly and thoroughly!"

The bearded lieutenant said, "Yes!"

The Emperor strode out of the dungeon and restored the mechanism to its original state, it was a meadow, and there was no trace at all, and it would have been difficult to find this place if the Emperor had not led the way himself.

The prince disappeared in the palace, this is not a trivial matter, maybe an outsider sneaked into the palace, maybe someone is not good for the little prince, the emperor's sleepiness has long been gone, and he strode in the direction of the Dragon Control Palace, frowning.

The Dragon Control Hall was in front, and a child suddenly jumped out of the grass next to it, and said with a smile: "Father, father!"

Concubine Zhang Defei was stunned and said in disbelief: "Hong'er?"

The emperor stopped, his eyes swept to Concubine Zhang De, and said to Huangfu Jinghong: "Why are you here?"

Huangfu Jinghong saluted the emperor in a dignified manner, and said, "I've seen my father!" raised his face again, and said proudly: "Hong'er wants to find her mother's concubine, but Mama Zhou insists that Hong'er sleep, Hong'er pretends to be asleep, and runs out to find her mother while Mama Zhou is not paying attention!"

Concubine Zhang Defei threw herself over and hugged Huangfu Jinghong in her arms, and this feeling of loss and recovery made her cry with joy.

Huangfu Jinghong didn't say that it was a sister who took him out to find his mother, and his sister told him to hide here, and said that his father and mother would pass from here.

Then, the fifteenth prince and the seventeenth princess also appeared in other parts of the palace unexpectedly and reasonably.

The disappearance of the prince turned out to be just the naughty nature of these blessed little ancestors, and there was a false alarm, and a thorough investigation in the palace was naturally unnecessary. However, the grandmothers and palace maids who served the princess and princess in close service were unlucky, and their butts were broken by the court staff.

However, no one cares about the life and death of these people.

The next day is the first day of worship.

The emperor's national teacher and a cadre of ministers will arrive at the sacrificial platform at the time of the morning, and the person responsible for transporting the child to the sacrificial platform is Lang Ying, the commander of the forbidden army's left capital, who replaced Shangguan Qianyu's position and became a popular person around the emperor, who was recommended by the national teacher.

Therefore, this kind of escort of children, of course, is entrusted to him.

The national teacher also arrived at the palace, and he will set out from the palace with the emperor and a number of ministers.

Before the national teacher approached the main hall, he saw Lang Ying running over with a pale face, and said in a low voice: "National teacher, something is wrong!"
