Lu Wan Ning really didn't expect that the regent would be a good official in the hearts of the people.

"We ordinary people hope that the regent will always be in charge of the country and his majesty, and never let our majesty mess around."

Lu Wan Ning was just thinking about what the regent was doing when she heard the leisurely voice of the watchman next door.

She chuckled. It seemed that this era still had its merits. At least an ordinary citizen could openly discuss the faults of His Majesty.

She relaxed back and lay down in the weeds, watching the moonlight leaking in through the small window above.

If that's the case, then she can stay here with peace of mind.

The next day, at the Prince Regent's Mansion, Wuwei's voice shocked the entire Prince Regent's Mansion, "Ah..."

The sound was deafening, even Ye Canghao, who had not yet gone to court, was startled.

Yuncang Pavilion.

"What are you doing yelling and screaming in the palace so early in the morning?"

Wuwei came to Ye Canghao and said with a bitter look on his face: "Little Ye Zi, your princess is missing."

Woohoo, he clearly remembered that he had set up a formation that only allowed entry and no exit. How did Master Xiaolu escape?

"It's over," he held his forehead, forgetting that he was inferior to that little girl in magic.

Ye Canghao carefully checked the situation in the house. The quilts were folded neatly, indicating that the person ran away last night.

"Come on."

"My lord."

Manager Liang was also alerted by Wuwei and had been waiting outside for a long time.

"Go and bring over the guards who were patrolling near Yuncang Pavilion last night."

"Yes."

Manager Liang brought over all the guards who were on duty last night.

There were about seven or eight people, all kneeling in the courtyard.

Ye Canghao looked at them and scolded: "Where is the princess?"

Everyone lowered their heads, not knowing how to reply.

They were obviously keeping a close eye on Yuncang Pavilion and it was impossible for the princess to escape, but the fact was that the princess was missing.

Manager Liang anxiously asked them to explain, "Where did the princess go? Tell the prince the truth."

Otherwise, the prince would be really angry and even he wouldn't be able to protect them.

The guards kowtowed one after another, "My subordinates have never seen the princess."

Manager Liang was still trying to persuade Wuwei, who was standing next to Ye Canghao, to speak, "Little Ye Zi, don't embarrass them. If Master Xiaolu intends to escape, they alone cannot stop her."

"Ah."

Lu Wanning, who was far away in the prison cell in Kyoto, suddenly sneezed.

She and the watchman were being escorted by officials to see Jing Zhaoyin.

Hearing the sound, the watchman asked with concern: "Is the cell damp and infected with wind and cold?"

Lu Wan Ning rubbed her nose and said, "It's okay."

I thought, maybe someone was talking about her behind her back!

Regent House.

Lu Wan Ning ran away, and Ye Canghao no longer wanted to go to court. He sent someone to report, and then took people to Lu Mansion first to see if Lu Wan Ning had returned home.

At this time in Lu Mansion, Zhu Yunhan was happily celebrating with her daughter Lu Qimeng.

Three days have come, and Lu Wanning has already died in the Regent's Palace. From now on, Zhu Yunhan can suppress the eldest lady unscrupulously until she tortures her to death.

By then, even if Lu Wan came back, she would say that the eldest lady followed her because she missed her daughter too much.

Even if Lu Wan had doubts, there was no way to prove it.

The mother and daughter were feeling proud when they suddenly heard a report from the boy in the front yard that the regent was coming in person.

The mother and daughter, who were so frightened that they were so proud, began to hug each other to keep warm.

"Mom, didn't you say that Lu Wan Ning can't come back? Why...the regent is here?" Lu Qimeng had the dignity of a lady in ancient times.

But when he heard that the regent, who had killed eight princesses before and after, had arrived, he was still so frightened that his legs weakened.

Afraid of something happening.

Zhu Yunhan calmed down and comforted her daughter, "Don't be afraid. For my mother's sake, go and see why the regent is here."

The most important thing is, the whereabouts of Lu Wan Ning's dead girl. Is she dead or did she follow her standing?

Instructing the nanny to take good care of the young lady, Zhu Yunhan plucked up the courage and walked to the front yard.

Although he knew that the regent would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, where was his reputation? Especially when the late emperor was still alive, he followed the late emperor on his expeditions in the north and south. I heard that the regent had conquered all the lands and given them to the late emperor.

How can one not be afraid of such a person?

Before Zhu Yunhan even reached the front yard, she felt a chill, her legs were trembling, and she didn't dare to go any further.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you?"

Lan'er, the little girl next to Zhu Yunhan asked.

"Lan'er, hold on to me."

Unable to walk, Zhu Yunhan had to rely on the help of the maids around her.

Lan'er helped her walk to the front yard and said, "Madam, don't be afraid. I just took a peek and the eldest lady didn't follow. Although I don't know the specific situation, I think the eldest lady won't be much better."

Lan'er is Zhu Yunhan's rare right-hand assistant, so naturally she has to help Zhu Yunhan explore the road ahead of time.

Hearing this, Zhu Yunhan's face lit up with joy, "Are you serious? Didn't you see that dead girl Lu Wan Ning?"

"No, the regent came alone."

Not good, not good.

However, Zhu Yunhan became worried again. Since Lu Wanning did not follow the regent, what would the regent do?

He had never personally visited the eight princesses in front of him.

"What do you think the regent is doing at home today? Could it be..."

Thinking of other possibilities, Zhu Yunhan was frightened and said, "Quick, hurry up."

No matter what, she couldn't leave the Regent in the front hall for too long.

Arriving at the front hall, before entering, Zhu Yunhan felt the endless chill coming from inside and hesitated, not daring to enter.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, Second Madam, since you are here, why don't you come in quickly."

Zhu Yunhan looked pale and was supported by Lan'er as she walked in. When she passed by Wuwei, she gave him a weak salute.

Is this man a Taoist priest? Why is there a Taoist priest around the regent?

After all, Zhu Yunhan was a woman in the backyard, so naturally she didn't know that there was a profound Taoist priest in the Regent's palace.

The eight concubines of the regent were Wuwei's idea.

In the name of the princess, they welcome people into the house, take the virgin's blood, and relieve the pain of Ye Canghao's suppression. If they die, they will be buried with the ceremony of a princess. If they are not dead, then they cannot appear in the eyes of everyone.

"The people...the women of the people pay homage to the prince."

She shivered and knelt down to Ye Canghao.

Ye Canghao sat on a high seat, overlooking the people kneeling at his feet, thinking, is this Lu Wan Ning's biological mother?

Why are they not similar to Lu Wan Ning in appearance or temperament?

"Where's Lu Wan Ning?"

After sizing up Zhu Yunhan, he spoke.

However, this opening shocked Zhu Yunhan, "Your Majesty, what did you just say?"

Ye Canghao pursed his lips impatiently. The woman in front of him was not only weak, but also had bad ears.

Seeing that he had reached the limit of restraint, Wuwei hurriedly stepped forward to ask questions for him, "Lu Wan Ning is in the house. Call her out and follow us back to the house."
