Chapter 161: The Storm in the Palace (29)

In an instant, Lin Wanwan's originally calm eyes were full of shock, and there was a faint hint of worry, "The Queen Mother is saying that Prince Lu was taken away?" ”

At the same time, Lin Wanwan couldn't help but secretly wonder in her heart, no wonder the Queen Mother was so angry, and no wonder the palace people she saw outside just now looked nervous, even the forbidden army guarding was suddenly mobilized and withdrawn, it seems that she should be looking for Luo Huaizhou.

However, what kind of person would have the courage to take a risk and kidnap the prince of the dynasty? What is the purpose of this?

Although Luo Huaizhou has no real power, he is the younger brother of Emperor Dehui and the most favored son of the Queen Mother after all, and if he wants to kidnap him, he must at least weigh it first, and what kind of consequences it will be if he offends the royal family.

Moreover, Luo Huaizhou has always been protected by guards when she travels, and she has observed that the martial arts of these guards are not low, and it is not easy to rob people under their noses, unless they are masters with extremely high martial arts, or a group of extremely vicious people. But these two types of people are not accessible to Luo Huaizhou on weekdays, so it can be seen that these people are very likely to be entrusted or hired by others.

The people behind the scenes let Luo Huaizhou be kidnapped, did they want to threaten the royal family, or did they have a grudge with Luo Huaizhou and wanted to retaliate?

Ke Luo Huaizhou has always been pure and open-minded, although he is a prince, he has never used his identity to oppress people, and he has never heard of a grudge with anyone......

Lin Wanwan's mind turned sharply, and her eyes suddenly froze.

Wait, grudge......

Lin Wanwan suddenly remembered that more than a month ago, they had met Hua Yanzhi, the son of Zuo Xiang, on the street, and finally broke up unhappily, before leaving, the person still had a touch of hatred in his eyes, it seemed that he wanted to wait for an opportunity to retaliate, could it be that Luo Huaizhou was taken away by Hua Yanzhi looking for someone?

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan's eyebrows frowned, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, and he asked a little anxiously, "When did this happen?" Can the Empress Dowager tell the people where Prince Lu was taken captive? ”

During this time, she rarely met Luo Huaizhou, and she really didn't know where he went, and the top priority was to rescue Luo Huaizhou as soon as possible, but now that she was in the palace, she could only find a way to learn from the Queen Mother about the time and place before Luo Huaizhou's disappearance, and maybe she could find some clues from it.

"You don't behave much, Zhou'er was kidnapped, it must have nothing to do with you, don't you explain it truthfully?!"

When the Queen Mother saw her concerned look, she immediately thought that she was a thief, and she was even more angry, and her eyes stared at Lin Wanwan deadly, as if she was going to skin her and dismantle her.

Lin Wanwan couldn't help but sigh in her heart, although the Queen Mother repeatedly embarrassed her, but after all, she was anxious for her son, after she heard the news, she was also worried about Luo Huaizhou's safety, and she really didn't want to worry about her.

I don't know if Su Jin is still staying in Zhuangzi at this time, she suddenly remembered that Su Jin had mentioned to her that he had left a secret guard by Luo Huaizhou's side and had been secretly protecting Luo Huaizhou, if this was the case, he should know about it soon, and he would definitely find a way to save Luo Huaizhou.

Lin Wanwan thought of this, only then did she settle down a little, and looked at the Queen Mother's gaze with a frank and upright look, and said unreservedly: "I don't know what the Queen Mother wants to hear from the mouth of the people's daughter?" The folk girl also just learned about it, but I am afraid that she will not be able to give the answer that the Queen Mother wants. ”

Luo Huaizhou's disappearance, whether it was Hua Yanzhi or not, without conclusive evidence, she could not just speculate on Hua Yanzhi. Not to mention whether the Queen Mother will believe it, even if the Queen Mother really has a guess in her heart, but the Hua family is powerful, and before there is real evidence, the Queen Mother will inevitably have some concerns, and in the end she will only scold herself for slandering Hua Yanzhi in order to get rid of her guilt, and put all the blame and anger on herself. At that time, she will be involved in the two major forces of the royal family and the Hua family, and it will be even more difficult to get out.

As Lin Wanwan's voice fell, the Queen Mother's face became more and more gloomy, and her eyes stared at her coldly, as if she wanted to see the flaws in her expression.

Suddenly, the momentum around the Queen Mother suddenly became fierce, and a powerful coercion poured down from her, only to hear her laugh angrily: "Just knew? The mourners see that you don't see the coffin and don't cry, come on-"

"Queen Mother, no." Before the Queen Mother's words fell, she was stopped by Pei Rong, who was standing aside.

She immediately stepped forward, bowed down and whispered in the ear of the Queen Mother: "If this matter is really related to her, moving her at this time is tantamount to moving the prince, and please think twice." ”

Hearing this, the Queen Mother's eyes moved, clenched the Buddha beads in her hand, and then waved back the palace people who had been summoned into the hall, and instead stared at Lin Wanwan with a glaring gaze, and there was a touch of hatred in her cold eyes.

Pei Rong finished speaking, turned to look at Lin Wanwan, her slightly anxious eyes contained a hint of worry, and there was a faint hint of temptation.

"The prince was originally praying for the queen mother in the temple outside the city for the past two days, but just last night, a group of mountain bandits suddenly broke into the temple, fought with the guards brought by the prince, and finally kidnapped the prince in the chaos."

Pei Rong said, she couldn't help frowning, the worry between her eyebrows gradually became stronger, and then she persuaded her: "Yuewan girl, the prince treats you well on weekdays, if you know something, tell the queen mother, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin." ”

Pei Rong's words, with deep temptation and exhortation, Lin Wanwan didn't feel a little funny, the two masters and servants, one singing red face and the other singing white face, had a good show.

Lin Wanwan shook her head in her heart, her thoughts turned, and she lowered her eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

Temple, mountain bandits, these two words are put together, and no matter how you look at it, it looks like a conspiracy. The royal temple outside Nanling City, she has heard a little, I heard that the security is heavy, only the royal family can go in to pray for blessings, but Luo Huaizhou was taken away by the mountain bandits here, it can be seen that this group of mountain bandits not only has a lot of people, but also the weapons should be very sophisticated, not only that, maybe even the temple has someone secretly colluding with it.

Mountain bandits have always been for the purpose of robbing money, no matter how magnificent the royal temple is, it is only a temple, if it is just for money, such a large-scale and well-armed mountain bandit is more than enough to rob the powerful and rich merchants, so why give up the easy and difficult, break into the well-guarded royal temple? Someone must have been orchestrated behind the scenes.

The people behind this curtain can not only command the mountain bandits, but also insert their own people in the imperial temple, there is such a force in Nanling City, and they are not afraid of offending the royal family, I am afraid that they don't need to guess to think of who is behind this force.

But looking at this method, it doesn't seem like Hua Yanzhi did it, Hua Yanzhi is just an arrogant and lascivious gentleman, it is impossible to carry out such a careful layout, there should be someone else behind it. It's just that why did the people behind this scene do this, and what was the real intention of kidnapping Luo Huaizhou?

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan gathered her thoughts, her eyes crossed Pei Rong, and fell directly on the Queen Mother, and asked without humility or arrogance: "Dare to ask the Queen Mother, why are you so sure that this matter is related to the people's daughter?" What is the evidence? ”
