Chapter 52

Yun Chi's words revealed more than just self-blame, as if he hated his own negligence and incompetence.

Xiao Zhongzi looked at Yun Chi, and couldn't find the words to comfort His Royal Highness the Prince, so he could only choke up and say, "The Crown Princess will definitely ...... well"

Yun Chi fell silent again.

The room was quiet, Xiao Zhongzi stood in front of the bed, and after a while, seeing that Yun Chi was still motionless, immersed in a dark mood, he gritted his teeth and spoke, "Your Highness, the water is cold for a while, after you take a bath, sleep well, and when you wake up, maybe your mind is clear, and you may be able to think of something negligent this night." ”

Yun Chi moved his hand when he heard this, lifted the quilt, sat up, and went behind the screen.

Xiao Zhongzi knew that his words had worked, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and prepared a change of clothes for Yun Chi.

Fortunately, the time was not too long, and the water temperature behind the screen was just right, neither hot nor cold.

Yun Chi immersed himself in the water, but in his mind, he thought about where the person who disguised himself as Su Zi would take Hua Yan to? The more I think about it, the more I panic, the more I think about it, the more I dare not think about it.

Xiao Zhongzi stood behind the screen, guarding the hour, and after staying for a long time, he estimated that the water was cold, and he was afraid that Yunchi would be infected with the wind cold, so he said tentatively, "Your Highness, the water is cold, come out quickly." ”

Yun Chi forcibly stopped the surging speculation in his mind, got out of the barrel, changed into clean clothes, returned to the room, waved his hand to Xiao Zhongzi, and said in a dumb voice, "You go!" Tell Fu Bo and Mama Fang to rest in the palace for a while. ”

Xiao Zhongzi nodded again and again, "Your Highness, you are resting, there is something to be watched, but if the news of the crown princess is found out, the slave will tell you as soon as possible." ”

Yun Chi let out an "um" and lay back on the bed. He should sleep, maybe as Xiao Zhongzi said, his mind is in a mess now, maybe when he wakes up, he will be clear, and he can think of neglected things.

So, he forced himself to close his eyes.

Seeing that Yun Chi was asleep, Xiao Zhongzi walked out of the room, quietly closed the door, and explained to the Fu housekeeper and Mama Fang outside the door, and the two of them were also secretly relieved, His Royal Highness can listen to the persuasion and rest, otherwise the iron man will not be able to stand it if he is tired like this. If His Royal Highness collapses, who will come to the crown princess?

Steward Fu came out of the outhouse painting hall, stood at the door, looked at the sky was already a lot, the snow had not stopped falling since yesterday, he said worriedly, "I don't know how many days this snow will fall, the crown princess is pregnant with His Royal Highness, and her body bones don't know if she can stand it?" ”

Mama Fang lowered her voice and said, "Don't say this, let Your Highness hear it carefully, I'm afraid it will hurt my heart." ”

Steward Fu immediately stopped his mouth and sighed deeply, "May the queen mother be blessed by the spirit of heaven, find the crown princess earlier, and let the crown princess suffer less." ”

Although he knew that he said this, it was just a relief, he was robbed by someone, since he was a bad person, how could he treat the princess well? But I still can't help but pray that the crown princess is well, as long as the crown princess is well, His Royal Highness will definitely be well.

The Queen Mother got the news that Yun was late and returned to the East Palace, but the crown princess didn't find it, and she also felt a lot of pain. For so many years, in addition to looking forward to Yun Chi marrying a concubine, she was looking forward to holding her grandson, but she was looking forward to it, and finally double happiness came, but something like this happened, which made her unbearable at her age.

It's been half a day and a night, and it's been such a snowy weather, and Hua Yan is such a delicate body, she almost doesn't dare to ask if the child can still be saved, only dare to ask Hua Yan not to have an accident, otherwise, her grandson is afraid that she can't keep it.

For half a day and a night, the emperor fell into a coma, and the news that the crown princess was kidnapped and disappeared not only spread throughout the streets of the capital, but also outside Beijing.

Countless people have speculated about what kind of person is so bold to openly disguise himself as Su Zi, participate in the palace banquet in a grand manner, and rob the crown princess under Yun Chi's nose.

Also, the real Su Zi is missing, did he encounter an accident, or where did he go? and Wu Weihou was invited by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the East Palace as a guest. said that it was a guest, but no one knew whether it was an interrogation or how.

In short, inside and outside the capital, at least a radius of 500 miles, in the intensive search and thorough investigation, although the people were panicked, they were very cooperative and did not cause chaos.

When An Shuli returned to the Anyang Palace, he was pulled by Princess Anyang, "Shuli, who robbed the crown princess?" Is the crown princess really not at all heard? ”

An Shuli nodded tiredly, "Mother, I haven't found out who it is so far." ”

Although Princess Anyang wanted to ask a few more questions, when she saw that he looked tired, she stopped talking and urged him to say, "Go and rest!" From yesterday noon to today, you haven't rested. ”

An Shuli nodded, didn't say anything more, and went to rest.

Mei Shuyu gritted her teeth and stared at it in person for most of the day, but there was still no result, and she went to the East Palace with a tired face.

When Steward Fu saw him coming, he hurriedly saluted and asked urgently, "Second Prince Yu, is there any news of the crown princess?" ”

Mei Shuyu shook her head and said cowardly, "No." ”

Steward Fu heard that his spirit suddenly dispersed, "Then you came to find Your Highness......

"I'm here to talk to the prince's cousin." Mei Shuyu asked, "What about the prince's cousin?" ”

Steward Fu said, "Your Highness took a break for an hour and is now in the study. ”

Mei Shuyu nodded and waved her hand, "I don't have to lead the way, I'll go see the prince's cousin by myself." ”

Fu Steward bowed his head.

Mei Shuyu walked towards Yun Chi's study.

Yun Chi slept for an hour and forced himself to fall asleep, but he still didn't sleep too much, and the smell of flowers in the brocade quilt between his noses made him panic even if he fell asleep, and endured it for an hour, he couldn't lie down anymore, so he went to the study.

When Mei Shuyu came, he was receiving a secret letter from Mei Shuyan from Zhaoyuan County, taking the dark line of Lin'an Hua's house. In that month, it was found that the weather was cold and cold, not many people cleared the customs, and even the dart bureau did not take the dart to pick up the work in that month, and there were few records of customs clearance from Zhaoyuan County, which was very different from the intensive customs clearance in previous years.

Later, he instructed Yun Ying to check the customs clearance caravan from Zhaoyuan County in previous years, but he didn't find out why, and later, because there were too many things, he instructed Yun Ying to withdraw his manpower and no longer investigate the matter, but he didn't let Mei Shuyan stop the thorough investigation.

Today, Mei Shuyan found out one thing, a secret letter with him.

He found out that there was a caravan selling smuggled salt, mixed with tea, although the weight of each dart was very small, but it could not bear the large caravan, and there was a lot of it. This caravan set out from Nanling, passed through Zhaoyuan County, went around to the north, and then changed to a caravan and transferred to southern Xinjiang, making a big circle, so that it was kept secret and not noticed.

He found out that it seemed to be involved with the Li Wangfu in Southern Xinjiang, but because King Li was dead, the Li Wangfu in Southern Xinjiang no longer existed. Therefore, when southern Xinjiang was found, the clue was broken.

The owner behind this caravan is the Lingnan Palace.

When he found out about the news, he didn't dare to delay, and he didn't dare to check it any further, so he immediately sent a secret letter to Beijing to inform Yun Chi.

After all, after the current emperor was born, due to premature birth, his body was weak, and he has been carefully raised with good medicine. He is the concubine of the current Queen Mother, although he is smart, but due to physical reasons, he is weaker. Although the emperor did not have many concubines, there were a few powerful ones, who could be civil and martial, and had a strong body.

The queen mother is a person with some skills, and the Cheng family in the north is the backer, and the current emperor is a descendant, and he is kind-hearted, and the succession is justified, so he has obtained the assistance of most of the courtiers, and will have a few royal concubines who have different hearts.

The king of Lingnan was born to a palace maid, the palace maid hemorrhaged after giving birth, and now the queen mother raised the king of Lingnan by her side in order to support the emperor in the future, but it was not recorded in her name, only gave him a shelter, which is also the emperor's weak body, afraid of raising the future heir, in short, although the king of Lingnan is not born to the queen mother, but was raised by the queen mother.

As the saying goes, the grace of birth is great, but the grace of nurturing is greater.

Therefore, although the king of Lingnan is not born to the Queen Mother, he is better than the Queen Mother's own birth. After supporting the emperor to ascend the throne, the queen mother made the decision and gave Zhao Zaifu's sister to marry him. After the wedding, the king of Lingnan automatically asked Yingzhen to guard Lingnan and guard a piece of land for the emperor, and the emperor named him the king of Lingnan.

In the 20 years since the emperor ascended the throne, Lingnan has been very peaceful, and the king of Lingnan rarely entered Beijing, and entered Beijing in seven or eight years to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother. The Queen Mother also often said to Yun Chi, "Your Uncle Wang is a filial child. ”

At the beginning, it was found out that Zhao Zaifu's sister Princess Lingnan was jealous of the eldest lady of Meifu who was cold and worm Gu, and was blocked by the second miss of Meifu, and later found out that Yun Chi and Su Zi were poisoned, which is also because of the fact that the king of Lingnan and Zhao Zaifu assisted the emperor to ascend the throne, the emperor and the queen mother suppressed the matter and let the king of Lingnan deal with the princess of Lingnan himself.

Therefore, now that it has been found that the Lingnan Royal Mansion and the King of Southern Xinjiang Li are involved in private salt, so, is there anything else involved?

Yun Chi didn't forget that Hua Yan once said that she "not only knows the princess of Lingnan, but also knows her pair of children, all of whom are very well-educated, such a woman will harm others for the sake of jealousy?" I don't believe it. He secretly wondered, did his father and grandmother feel too relieved about the Lingnan King?

Is the person behind it related to him? Is the person who robbed Huayan related to him?
