Chapter 1109 As the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong
That's right......
The news brought back by the housekeeper is the truth about the fact that Mrs. Chu Ao's daughter, the mother and daughter, was "kidnapped".
Early this morning, when the old general went to Zuo Xiang to bring back Chu Ao, the housekeeper had already returned to the general's mansion.
It's just that the old general, Chu Qianli and others were not in the mansion at that time.
And the people don't know what is wrong with the housekeeper, and it is common for the housekeeper to go in and out of the general's mansion on weekdays, and others will not tell the old general whether the housekeeper has come back at all, so they all subconsciously think that the housekeeper has never returned to the general's mansion.
But in fact, the butler and the old general and others just missed one after the other.
Originally, because he couldn't find his son anywhere, the housekeeper always felt uneasy, and after returning to the general's mansion, he found that the old general and others were not in the mansion, so he had to fidget at the door of the general's mansion.
Because the housekeeper has always subconsciously felt that something might happen to the General's Mansion recently, and now the old general has not returned, so he does not dare to leave without permission.
And he was full of worries about where his son had gone, so he had to stand outside the gate of the general's mansion and wait for the old general and them to come back.
Originally, he thought that as long as the old general came back safe and sound, he and the old general would take a few days off to concentrate on finding his son's whereabouts.
But if something happens to the General's Mansion, as a member of the General's Mansion, he must not be left alone.
During this time, because of his son, he has been ashamed of the old general too much, if the old general needs him now, he should go to the soup and go to the fire!
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't worry about his son, he wouldn't blink an eye even if he was asked to die for the old general......
Although his son's health has improved a lot in recent days, the housekeeper feels that it is even more terrible when he was sick when he faced his son recently.
Therefore, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and the butler waited at the gate of the general's mansion in a desperate way, hoping that the old general could come back sooner.
Unexpectedly, the old general couldn't wait to come back, but he saw the second old lady and his two daughters who were about to leave the general's mansion with a big bag and a small bag.
Coincidentally, the butler stood at the door and waited anxiously, and when the three of them walked to the door of the General's Mansion, it happened that the heavy package in their hands fell to the ground and made a movement for the butler to notice their situation here.
On weekdays, the second old lady and his two daughters are very squeamish, they never bring so many things when they go out, and even if they do, they will definitely send several people to help carry things.
But today, the three of them are really abnormal.
It was this anomaly that caught the butler's attention.
It just so happened that the mother and daughter, who were busy picking up things, did not notice the housekeeper.
Taking advantage of this, the housekeeper quietly hid behind the door without alerting the mother and daughter, wanting to see what they were going to do.
Unexpectedly, the three of them left like this, sneakily leaving the General's Mansion without looking back.
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons!
The butler, who felt that something was wrong, followed the three of them all the way, and the mother and daughter walked for a long time, and the butler followed them to an extremely remote and inconspicuous courtyard on the outskirts of the city.
There were two soldiers guarding the gate of this courtyard, and the housekeeper recognized these two people at a glance as the soldiers who had often followed the prince and were the closest and most trusted by the prince.
I think that more than a year ago, when the prince had nothing to do, he came to the general's mansion and Miss Li'er pretended to show goodwill, and at that time, the housekeeper saw these soldiers following the prince several times.
The prince's personal soldiers are here, which can only mean that the prince is very likely to be in this courtyard at this time.
But why did the second lady and the two young ladies come here?
It was too strange and strange for the prince and them to appear at the same time in a place where they should not have been.
However, the door was guarded by the prince's own soldiers, and the housekeeper could not follow him.
So after the three of them walked into the courtyard, the housekeeper sneaked around to the back of the courtyard and climbed the wall to secretly see what was going on inside.
Coincidentally, just after the housekeeper didn't alarm anyone and secretly climbed up the wall, he saw the prince, the second old lady and the two young ladies talking secretly in the courtyard.
Probably because the prince didn't expect that someone would find out their whereabouts in such a secret place, or maybe the content of their conversation didn't want to be heard by anyone other than the three of them.
All in all, although the gate of the courtyard was guarded by the prince's people, the courtyard was empty with only the three of them.
Although the housekeeper's cultivation is very ordinary, he is also a person around the old general, and it is still easy to eavesdrop and not be discovered by the prince, a fool.
Therefore, in this way, the housekeeper overheard all the conversations between the prince and the second old lady and others on the wall.
After listening to their conversation, the butler was shocked and angry......
The butler, who was trying to calm himself down and reduce his presence as much as possible, heard the three of them conspire against their plot when he heard the prince say that it was not safe to be here, and that the three of them should be moved to another place to hide.
Originally, the housekeeper wanted to follow the prince and others all the way to see where he wanted to hide the mother and daughter.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he followed the prince out of that courtyard, he saw many officers and soldiers appear on the originally calm street.
After secretly inquiring about him, he learned that Zuo Xiang imprisoned and abused the second master, causing him to be seriously injured, and the old general directly took Zuo Xiang back to the general's mansion and imprisoned him.
Although all the people around him were secretly applauding for the old general's anger.
But the sudden appearance of one officer after another on the street made the housekeeper have to give up the idea of following the prince and others......
After much consideration, the butler decided to avoid the limelight for the time being.
After all, as the steward of the General's Mansion, he is also known to almost everyone in the White Tiger Country.
If he now swaggers up on the streets, is spotted by the officers and soldiers, and then arrested, and uses him to threaten the old general, and take the opportunity to make him hand over the left minister, it will be troublesome.
The old general must have been anxious at this time, and he must not add half a bit of trouble to the old general.
Fortunately, the people of the White Tiger Country were all very polite to him because of his identity as the housekeeper of the General's Mansion.
Under the cover of many civilians, he secretly hid in the house of one of the civilians, and it was not until late at night that the butler dared to leave and return to the general's palace to report to the old general what he had overheard today.
