Chapter 516: Finally Seeing Huo Bao
Since Aunt Sun was Mrs. Xianzhou's companion, Xu Wu's courage increased.
It didn't take much to say anything, Xu Wu learned from Aunt Sun that the little son of the Wang family was lost!
The day before the Shangyuan Festival, the eldest prince Wang Xian was called home by his father for a reunion dinner.
Wang Xian didn't want to come back, but he was pressed down by his father's big hat with the word "filial piety", and he had no choice but to come back.
After the meal, perhaps in order to ease the atmosphere at home, Lord Wang asked the new lady to bring the little son over, and Lord Wang hoped that the eldest son could hug his younger brother.
Wang Xian originally refused, but in the end, he couldn't refuse, and reached out to hug the little boy.
But as soon as his hand touched the little boy, the little boy began to cry, crying bitterly, as if he was frightened.
It is conceivable that the scene at that time was very embarrassing, Wang Xian was young and vigorous, and he left immediately.
He went back to his room, but the little boy was still crying, and the new lady said that the little boy must have been frightened.
Because the next day was the Shangyuan Festival Lantern Festival, Lord Wang, who was the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, did not dare to relax, for fear that something would go wrong, and seeing that his youngest son had been crying, Lord Wang was very irritable, so he simply called two staff members to go to the study to discuss matters.
Even the new lady could not enter the study of Lord Wang, and no one could disturb him unless a holy decree had arrived when he was deliberating.
And that night, Wang Xian didn't go back to the academy, but lived in the mansion.
On the same night, the little boy cried non-stop, and the new lady's dowry came up with an idea, saying that the child was frightened, lost his soul, and wanted to collect his soul.
There are many ways for people to collect souls for children, and the methods used by the mother-in-law are the methods of their hometowns.
Use a bowl with half a bowl of water in it, take a fast child and stand in the water with your hands, and read the name of the person in your mouth, this name is generally the name of the dead relative in the family, and whose name is pronounced, if the fast child stands, he begins to bow down, ask the relative not to embarrass the child, and then pour the water and the fast child outside.
The new lady hugged the little son, followed the mother-in-law all the way to the garden, put a water bowl in the gazebo, and began to collect the soul.
The name of the person in the mother-in-law's mouth is not someone else, but Mrs. Xianzhou, that is, Wang Nian's biological mother!
And that fast son also stood at that time.
The mother-in-law and the new lady begged the first lady together, don't embarrass the children.
This scene happened to be bumped into by Wang Xian, who couldn't sleep at night and came to the garden to hang out!
Wang Xian was furious, kicked the water bowl away, the new lady was still holding the little boy at the time, and I don't know if she was frightened, or was affected by Wang Xian's kick, the new lady fell to the ground with the little boy in her arms.
Wang Xian brushed his sleeves away, and the new lady cried for a while, and after thinking about it, the little boy was still crying, and it seemed that he could only regain his soul.
When she went back to the house, she called the nurse and asked the nurse to come and pick up the child, she put the little boy on the big kang near the window, and then returned to the garden to collect his soul again.
When she and her mother-in-law finished the ritual of collecting souls and returned to the house, they found that the nurse had fainted on the ground, and the little boy was gone.
The nurse was kicked in the head and fainted on the spot.
Although he was rescued later and woke up, his mind was full of lakes and lakes, and he didn't remember anything.
And that night, Wang Xian had a conflict with the new lady, and once kicked the water bowl used to collect the soul.
After Lord Wang finished his deliberations, it was already the third watch, and then he realized that his youngest son was lost.
Like Mrs. Xin, Lord Wang also suspected that Wang Xian did it, and Wang Xian must have hidden his younger brother.
Therefore, Lord Wang did not realize the seriousness of this matter at that time.
He even thought that this was Wang Xian's child who was angry, and he persuaded the new lady that as long as Wang Xian's anger was gone, he would hand over his younger brother.
Until dawn, Wang Xian did not hand over the little son, the new lady cried to death, and Lord Wang was also angry, and let people forcibly search Wang Xian's yard.
I didn't find the little boy, but I found the tiger head hat of the little boy.
That night, when the new lady carried the little boy to the garden, she was worried that he would catch a cold, so she put on a tiger head hat in the small cotton canopy.
This hat is evidence, which is enough to prove that the little boy once stayed in Wang Xian's courtyard.
No matter how Wang Xian explained, Lord Wang just decided that the little boy was taken away by Wang Xian.
and decided that Wang Xian still had accomplices, and took the little boy out of the house.
Lord Wang scolded a lot of ugly words, and even slapped Wang Xian.
Wang Xian was already sulking, and he was wronged by his father for no reason, so he went back to the academy and never came back.
After Wang Xian left, Lord Wang asked people to check Wang Xian's little maid and the maid in his yard, and there was nothing abnormal.
Lord Wang even checked Wang Xian's classmates in the academy, found three suspicious ones, and secretly asked people to investigate, but in the end they found nothing.
Because he suspected that it was Wang Xian who stole the child, Lord Wang thought that this was a family scandal of the brothers' wall, and it was not enough for outsiders to be inhumane, so he ordered the matter not to be spread outside.
Therefore, Wang Xiaogongzi has obviously been lost for several days, but no one in Baifeng City knows about it.
Xu Wu got the first-hand news, and it was done, and promised Aunt Sun that after going home and asking his parents, he would consider whether to see Aunt Sun's niece or not, and left the Wang family.
Xu Wu turned into Wang An, and he immediately told Minghui the news he heard today.
Minghui did not delay, and disguised herself as Huo Yu's former little follower, Peanut, and set off to Zhenfu Yamen.
Along the way, Minghui was also worried that Huo Yu was not in the yamen, but in the palace.
If it was in the palace, she really had no choice.
Fortunately, her luck is good, Huo Yu is really in the yamen.
It's just that he was deliberating, and Cabbage heard that Peanut was outside, so he hurriedly came out, Minghui originally wanted Cabbage to tell him on her behalf, but she hadn't seen Huo Yu for a long time, and she missed him a little, so she decided to tell Huo Yu about it herself.
Minghui waited for a full hour before Huo Yu came out of the yamen, saw the familiar and unfamiliar little face in front of him, the corners of Huo Yu's mouth hooked, and walked in front of her: "Hungry, go eat steamed buns!" ”
Minghui had a headache when she heard the word "bun".
What Huo Yu took her to was the small restaurant near Feiyuwei, which was opened by Feiyuwei, who retired because of his disability.
The buns are as unpalatable as they are.
Ming Hui didn't eat any of them, but Huo Yu ate several in one go.
Seeing Huo Yu gobbling up, Minghui felt distressed.
"Huo Baozhu, you haven't eaten for a few days?"
"No, I just didn't eat dinner yesterday." Huo Yu said with a smile.
His time was precious, and Ming Hui didn't dare to delay, so he told Huo Yu the news that Wang An had inquired about from the palace Yin's mansion.
