Chapter 484: Hui Darong
"Princess, what are we going to do now? Are we going to wait here, or are we going to leave for Darong now, as we had planned? If we wait here, maybe things will turn around, but if we stay here now, maybe something will happen...... His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is dead. ”
Seeing that the spirit in front of him was still in a trance, Leng Shisan couldn't help frowning, stepped forward, and said cautiously pursed his lips.
There are still several days to go back to Darong from here, and he is really afraid that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes back, he will be furious when he sees the haggard appearance of the princess.
"Who died? Would a man with a strong body like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disappear so simply? He must be doing what he has to do, I, as the princess, will help him manage the affairs in the house, you don't need to say more, let's go back to Darong soon. ”
Seeing Mu Xiwan's slightly sad look in his anger, Leng Shisan's heart sincerely gave birth to a feeling called pride and admiration, he hummed lightly, and immediately walked to the front of the carriage, and the group rode towards Darong.
And Mu Xiwan in the carriage rubbed her eyebrows tiredly, and heard the news that Leng Shisan said that Feng Chengyi was missing, although she was not shocked on the outside in the past two days, she was very calm, but she didn't know how many times she cried secretly at night, and she didn't eat a drop of water for a whole day, until she heard Leng Shisan say that Feng Chengyi was inexplicably missing.
As long as he didn't see the corpse, Mu Xiwan believed that Feng Chengyi must be going to do his own thing, and as for what he needed to do, it was to help him take care of the affairs in the mansion.
The group walked very quickly on the road, but it was only a day and a night, and they returned to Darong.
Mu Xiwan knew that if he rushed back in such a hurry now, and the people around him did not see Feng Chengyi, it would definitely cause a commotion, so he hurriedly called Leng Thirteen, who had been guarding in front:
"Leng Thirteen, in this way, we don't have to rush back to the prince's mansion first, let's wander around the capital a few times first, and then only leave a few excellent guards, and the rest of the people will quietly return to the mansion and send someone to send a letter to the emperor, don't let too many people know that we have returned to the capital, just say that the prince still has something to do, and it will take about half a month to come back."
Hearing Mu Xiwan say this, Leng Shisan immediately understood what Mu Xiwan meant, and there was a little more admiration for Mu Xiwan in his eyes, so he clenched his fists and said:
"Yes, the crown princess is wise, then let's go to the capital and walk around twice."
Mu Xiwan bowed slightly, got off the carriage alone, looked at the crowded scene in front of him, and realized that today is the temple fair to be held on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar every month, so many people, as a legitimate princess, naturally can't be too public, so Mu Xiwan put down the veil and walked slowly towards the prince's mansion.
Today is a temple fair, the small vendors next to them blow candy, make kites by themselves, and children pretend to chant poems, if it is usual, Mu Xiwan must be interested in taking a look, but when she thinks that she has not received a little message about Feng Chengyi, she can't wait to go back to the prince's mansion to sit down and rest her brain, so Mu Xiwan didn't look at the street at all, but suppressed the burning anxiety in her heart, and slowly walked towards the prince's mansion.
Today, the news that the crown prince and the crown princess are going back to the house has already been released, so early in the morning, some eunuchs and powerful families who want to take this opportunity to see the prince are waiting at the door, and other ministers of the court are also coming in the name of wanting to discuss things with the prince.
Obviously, the crown prince and the crown princess returned to the mansion together, why is the crown princess alone?
Mu Xiwan looked at the stunned and questioning eyes of a group of people, forcibly suppressed the sourness in his heart, frowned, and asked them to get up, then he heard a minister take a look at it, and asked loudly:
"The princess is so interested, today is a temple fair, compared to wanting to have a fun time after coming back, but now it's twilight, a few days ago the news was released that the prince is going back to the house, and the old man still has something to discuss with the prince," Looking at the calm face in front of him, there was no trace of abnormal Mu Xiwan, the minister pointed to a few friends next to him, and asked with Mu Xiwan's indifferent gaze: "Princess, I don't know where the prince went?" ”
"Yes, Crown Princess, where has the Crown Prince gone? A few of us still have things to discuss. ”
Mu Xiwan frowned, he had calculated everything, but he always forgot that there were so many Jiupin Sesame Officials in the court who wanted to climb up, and he had to refuse, but if he told them that the prince was missing, it would definitely cause an uproar in the court.
Leng Shisan next to him frowned slightly, if these people were asking, the crown princess was very likely to say something leaky, but the crown princess was careful and would definitely pass this level.
So Leng Thirteen just stood by silently and didn't say a word, thanks to those ministers who didn't know that Leng Thirteen usually followed Feng Chengyi every step of the way, otherwise he would definitely have to question again.
Mu Xiwan stiffened, there was still no flaw in her face, she generously took off her veil, made a gesture frankly, motioned for the ministers to go in and drink tea, and then said with a dignified smile:
"The prince still has some affairs to be busy with, I'm just a virtuous helper at best, things there are said to be very complicated, I'm not good at politics as a woman, the prince just told me to let me hurry back first to arrange things in the prince's mansion, he would rather work than accompany me more." Saying this, Mu Xiwan deliberately lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was really a delicate person who was left out in the cold, and then smiled apologetically at the ministers:
"In this way, the prince said, in less than a month he will come back after all the affairs are taken care of, and if there is anything that does not matter, such as some silver, you can tell me that it is okay."
Hearing Mu Xiwan's words, several ministers were skeptical, but it was not easy to show it, so they all nodded and went home, and some of the people who were secretly sent to investigate also decided not to move because they didn't understand Leng Shisan's whereabouts.
Until half a month has passed, even Mu Xiwan began to feel anxious, Mu Xiwan was already tired of that set of rhetoric, and he still hadn't received Feng Chengyi's letter for a long time, so he couldn't help but be a little anxious.
At this time, rumors gradually rose in the court, all saying that the prince was oppressed by the prince and fled, some said that the prince was killed by the princess outside, and some said that the prince fell off the cliff......
