Liu Zhong didn't notice it, took it, and then smiled with satisfaction: "Thank you, Lord Jiang, the slave will retire." ”

After Liu Zhong left, Jiang Feng was about to continue to ask to see Qin Lingxiao, but at this time, he saw Liu Zhong and Shen Ruohan's men sent to the palace to find Princess Shi Yao.

Seeing that they looked in a hurry, Jiang Feng originally didn't plan to deal with it, but after finding out that the direction they were going was where he lived, he immediately stopped one person and asked, "What are you guys ......?"

The person who was stopped by Jiang Feng was originally a little impatient, but after finding out that it was Jiang Feng, he immediately changed his expression and said truthfully: "Lord Shen and Chief Manager Liu suspect that Princess Shi Yao may be hiding in the palace, so they sent us over to look for it." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Feng chuckled in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a calm expression: "Then you guys go quickly, but I saw a woman wearing Beiqiang clothes on the side of the rockery yesterday, but she ran too fast, I didn't see her face clearly, I didn't know her ...... Is it the person you're looking for? ”

After hearing Jiang Feng's words, everyone was overjoyed, and after hurriedly thanking him, they hurried to the rockery.

After seeing that everyone was gone, Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurried back, and when he saw that Shi Yao was still staying in the room, his agitated mood calmed down.

Immediately, he immediately told Shi Yao what had just happened: "Princess, they already suspect that you are hiding in the palace, or ......."

"Nope! I can't leave the palace yet! ”

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Shi Yao's reaction was very intense, unwilling to leave the palace, and he didn't know why he had to stay in the palace.

However, no matter what Shi Yao had to hide, he couldn't let others find Princess Shi Yao in him, for his own sake, so he had to say: "In this case, then princess, you can hide in this secret passage during the day, and if you have any needs, you can order them to be prepared for you." ”

Jiang Feng took Shi Yao to the study, and then pulled the mechanism to open a secret passage for one person to enter, which he found after coming here, and Princess Shi Yao didn't know where to get the news, and also discovered this secret passage, so she was able to hide from everyone and hide in the palace.

Hearing this, Shi Yao was a little reluctant, although there was everything in that secret passage, it was no worse than the residence outside, but she was the only one inside, and there was no one to talk to, of course she didn't want to.

However, there are priorities, and now it is the most important thing to avoid the search of those who have escaped Shen Ruohan and Liu Zhong, otherwise they will find out their whereabouts, then her plan to force Qin Ling to take the initiative to show up to find her will be in vain.

The matter of Princess Yao was in full swing during the search, and he soon arrived at Jiang Feng, but because his position in the hearts of Qin Lingxiao and Empress Dowager Zhang Man was too special, Shen Ruohan and Liu Zhong's people did not dare to be too presumptuous, so they checked casually and left after finding that there was no problem.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng was completely relieved, and Shi Yao immediately strongly expressed that she wanted to come out after knowing that the search was over, so Jiang Feng had no choice but to release her from the secret passage.

On the other side, Shen Ruogu and Liu Yanran also returned to the palace from Wangyun Temple, and immediately heard about what happened in the palace during the time they left.

"It seems that Shen Ruohan is going to be unlucky." Liu Yanran gloated.

The entire palace has been rummaged through, and Princess Shi Yao has still not been found, Qin Lingxiao has never been a good-tempered person, if Shen Ruohan finds nothing after tomorrow, then the charge of causing Princess Shi Yao's disappearance will definitely be deducted from his head, and if he is unlucky, it is possible to die in the hands of the angry Beiqiang Emperor.

Shen Ruogu couldn't be happy, she originally planned to avenge her parents by herself, but now she can only use Beiqiang to weaken her enemies, especially Qin Lingjue is still Beiqiang's concubine, which suddenly gave her a feeling of owing the other party, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

……

Soon in the evening, the Empress Dowager Zhang Man suddenly had the idea of wanting to feast the children of the ministers.

After Liu Yanran received the news, she immediately understood that Zhang Man's move to set up a banquet was fake, and it was true that she took the opportunity to find a beauty for Qin Lingxiao, but she didn't care, with her ability, those daughters who had not experienced the wind and rain were not her opponents at all.

And Shen Ruogu saw that Liu Yanran didn't care, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

However, to everyone's surprise, this banquet caused an uproar.

said that Shen Ruohan was there, after he found that he couldn't find Princess Shi Yao in the entire palace, he couldn't help but wonder if his guess was wrong.

Time is urgent, in another day it will be the deadline for Qin Lingxiao to issue a customs clearance, Shen Ruohan couldn't help but be a little anxious and crazy, it just so happened that he received the news that the Empress Dowager Zhang Man was going to have a banquet for the children of the ministers, and his heart moved, maybe Princess Shi Yao would hide in the homes of those ministers?

Thinking of this, Shen Ruohan couldn't help but get excited, and he didn't care about what the consequences would be if he guessed wrong, so he hurriedly went to Liu Zhong and asked him to help him go to the banquet to help him see if Princess Shiyao's whereabouts were.

Because as a foreign minister, he was not invited by the Empress Dowager Zhang Man, but Liu Zhong was different, he could go to that banquet.

Knowing Shen Ruohan's request, Liu Zhong agreed without hesitation, anyway, for him, going to the banquet was just a gesture, and it was really worth it to be able to gain the favor of a prime minister because of this.

With Liu Zhong's help, Shen Ruohan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and he himself planned to visit all the officials in the capital and search them one by one along their mansions, and he didn't care if he would offend people at this moment.

Soon it was time for the banquet to begin, and after Liu Zhong changed his clothes, he immediately rushed over there, and met many ministers' children along the way.

He has always been a good person, even if his current status in the palace is only that of Emperor Qin Lingxiao and Empress Dowager Zhang Man, he is still the first to arrive at the banquet.

Zhang Man, on the other hand, waited until everyone had arrived, and then she was late.

As usual, it started with a lot of nonsense, Zhang Man showed a cordial attitude to communicate with all the daughters of everyone, and vaguely expressed to them the idea of hoping that they would enter the palace to accompany Qin Lingxiao.

After comprehending this hint, many ministers' daughters instantly blushed, obviously tempted, but there are also a very few people who disagree, they are all admirers of the former eldest prince Qin Lingjue, and it is rumored that it was the current emperor Qin Lingxiao who killed him, so many people are very unhappy with him.
