Chapter 449: Letters
Early the next morning, the rice cake rushed in in a hurry, and shook Wei Qingqing awake with an anxious face, "Princess, wake up quickly!" ”
Wei Qingqing hadn't slept very deeply, and as soon as the rice cake shook her, she quickly opened her eyes.
As soon as she opened her eyes and saw that the rice cake was in a hurry, she suddenly sobered up, and subconsciously asked, "But what happened to the little lady?" ”
Seeing the rice cake shaking her head, she immediately asked, "But the little master found it?" ”
The rice cake still shook his head, and then presented an envelope to Wei Qingqing, and said with a scared face: "The slave and maid woke up and found this letter at the bedside, but the slave and maid didn't know who put it, and I don't know when that person sneaked into the slave and maid's house and stood in front of the slave's bed!" ”
Wei Qingqing thought about the words of the rice cake, and at the same time fell on the envelope, only to see that the words "Princess Personally Enlightened" were written on it, and the handwriting was very unfamiliar, which showed that the other party was not a person that Wei Qingqing was familiar with.
In other words, someone sneaked into the house of the rice cake without knowing it and put this letter written by her and put it next to her pillow!
Wei Qingqing had a premonition in her heart for no reason, thinking that this letter must have something to do with her kidnapped son!
This instinct made her quickly open the envelope, take out the letter and unfold it eagerly, and her eyes fell on the content of the letter!
Wei Qingqing looked at it, and suddenly her face changed greatly, and she immediately got up and ordered the rice cake to change her clothes.
While dressing up Wei Qingqing, Rice Cake asked puzzledly, "Princess, are you going out?" But you're still in confinement! ”
Wei Qingqing said with a tired face, "My children are gone, what confinement am I still sitting on?" ”
Hearing this, Rice Cake asked worriedly, "Then where are you going?" ”
Wei Qingqing replied with a calm face: "Go and meet the person who wrote this letter for a while!" ”
Rice cake was always worried about Wei Qingqing's body, and felt that she shouldn't go out casually at the moment, so as not to hurt the root of her body.
She quickly took the initiative to ask, "Can the slave go on your behalf?" If you have anything to say, just tell the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid will bring it all to you! ”
Wei Qingqing shook his head and refused the proposal of the rice cake, "The person who wrote the letter said that he knew the whereabouts of the little young master, so I had to go and meet him in person for a while!" ”
Wei Qingqing said as she opened the envelope and poured out the contents of the letter, only to find that it was a small red cloth packed with the letter.
Wei Qingqing's hand holding the red cloth suddenly trembled uncontrollably, and her voice was also a little excited, "This red cloth was cut from the young master's quilt!" The person who wrote the letter did not lie to me, the child is really in his hands! ”
"But this kind of quilt is very common, but whenever someone adds a ding, they will give the child a big red quilt, so as to have an auspicious ......" The rice cake didn't dare to be gullible, and he didn't dare to let Wei Qingqing put himself in danger, "Princess, what if what the letter says is false?" ”
Wei Qingqing's attitude was very firm, "Even if it's fake, I'm going to go, I'm afraid that if it's true, ......"
Wei Qingqing has made up her mind, no matter how the rice cake persuades her, she is unmoved, and she also specially ordered the rice cake not to leak the matter, "The person who wrote the letter said that I can only go to see her alone, and I must not tell anyone about it, otherwise the little young master will lose his life!" ”
Wei Qingqing paused as she spoke, and glanced at the rice cake deeply, "Do you understand what I said?" ”
The rice cake looked like he wanted to talk and stopped, "Princess......"
Wei Qingqing couldn't help but interrupt the rice cake, and ordered her with a solemn face, "Don't tell others about this, even the prince, remember?" ”
Wei Qingqing felt that her son seemed to have been kidnapped, and the letter sent to her by the hand of the rice cake was a blackmail letter, but the other party did not say what she wanted her to exchange for her son!
Think about what the other person wants, and only bring it up when you see her!
For the sake of her son's safety, Wei Qingqing repeatedly told the rice cake to keep her mouth shut, until the rice cake reluctantly promised that she would never leak the matter, and then she wrapped her cloak and quietly left the palace from the corner gate.
The letter said that she should meet in Nanping Village, where she had stayed, and she went out to find a carriage and ran all the way to Nanping Village.
She naturally knew that she would encounter danger if she went alone, and she would also fall into a relatively passive situation, but she didn't dare to gamble with the life of a newborn child!
Just like the kidnappers in modern times who threaten their families not to report the crime, many family members choose not to report the crime and go alone to pay the ransom, knowing that they are not as strong as trained professionals.
However, Wei Qingqing was vaguely sure that she and her son were likely to be useful to the kidnappers, so the kidnappers' target was not their lives.
But what exactly do the kidnappers want?
Wei Qingqing's mind was tossing and turning, and the carriage had already traveled to Nanping Village.
She got out of the carriage at the entrance of the village, gave the coachman some money and let him go.
As she walked slowly into the village, she looked around vigilantly, and at the same time secretly wondered what the purpose of the writer had asked her to come to her hometown.
She subconsciously walked to the small courtyard where she had lived, stopped, and looked thoughtfully at the closed gate - the person who asked her to come to Nanping Village was obviously very familiar with her past, so would he wait for her in this small courtyard?
Wei Qingqing was guessing in his heart, when the closed wooden door suddenly opened with a "squeak", and a familiar figure appeared in front of Wei Qingqing, "Aqing, you are finally here." ”
"It's you!" Wei Qingqing's pupils shrank suddenly, and her eyes were full of anger when she looked at Zhao Qiye, "You kidnapped my child, right?!" ”
Zhao Qiye avoided Wei Qingqing's words, and only made a "please" gesture to her slightly, "This is where you lived, don't you come in and take a look?" At that time, I often came to play with Ji Li to play with you......"
"Do you remember that swallow's nest under the eaves?" Zhao Qiye raised his head slightly and pointed to the corner of the eaves, and said with a smile: "I remember that you said that the swallow's nest is the most appropriate to use to hide the silver, so you have to force me to climb up with a ladder and hide the silver we earned together!" ”
Wei Qingqing looked at Zhao Qiye expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Of course I remember - all that silver disappeared with you in the end!" ”
Zhao Qiye not only sold her to the fat squire as a concubine at that time, but also swept away all the money they had earned together after crossing over!
Wei Qingqing has been unable to understand what he is going to do when he suddenly wants so much money?
"Aqing, I have a hard time," Zhao Qiye looked at Wei Qingqing fixedly, and explained softly for himself: "You will soon know my troubles." ”
"I've said it a hundred times, I'm not interested in your wretchedness!" Wei Qingqing confronted Zhao Qiye with a calm face, and said to him word by word: "Zhao Qiye, if you still have half of our friendship before, return my son to me!" ”
