Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

"Cough cough~"

Lord Ma coughed twice, calmed down and said, "Everyone, my daughter is feeling a little unwell today, so the wedding ceremony will be temporarily cancelled.

However, the banquet will continue. If you would like to honor us, you can stay and have dinner before leaving. My wife and I have something else to do, so we will leave for now. I will arrange to return the gifts to everyone later. "With that, Lord Ma clasped his fists and bowed, and the couple walked back to the inner room.

"Hey, Lord Ma, what's going on?" Lord Hong shouted from behind.

"Yes, what's going on? Why is it cancelled just like that?" Many people looked at each other, hoping that Lord Ma would explain it to everyone.

But Ma Dong is in no mood at all. His daughter's whereabouts are unknown and he is at a loss.

The guests outside saw that the host had gone home, so how could they still be in the mood? They all clamored to leave. Liang Bo, the butler in charge of accounting, hurriedly returned the gifts to the adults according to the list of gifts on the account.

"My lord, what should we do? Nothing must happen to our Mei'er. If anything happens to her, I will die!" Mrs. Ma said as tears flowed down her face and she sobbed softly.

"Please stop crying, I'm all confused when you cry." Lord Ma frowned. He wanted to find his daughter as soon as possible, but where could he find her now?

Madam Ma's eyes suddenly lit up: "Master, why don't you go find the emperor? Ask the emperor to help you find a solution."

"General Feng said that he would report to the emperor." Lord Xia shook his head again.

At this time, Butler Liang knocked on the door and came in, saying that all the guests had left, and as for the gifts they had sent, they were all returned to them.

"Ah~"

Lord Ma nodded and sighed.

"Where is the young lady?" Butler Liang said nervously, "Master, why don't we go report to the police!"

Lord Ma smiled bitterly. General Dingyuan was already here, so why should he report to him?

What's more, General Dingyuan said that he would report the matter to the emperor personally. Besides, no official is as high-ranking as the emperor.

"My Lord, my Lord, my Lord."

Xia Cao's face was filled with fear. She crawled and rolled in, saying incoherently, "Outside~Outside~"

"What's going on outside?" Mrs. Ma stood up, her eyes wide open.

But Xia Cao was probably so frightened that she couldn't utter a coherent sentence.

"Let's go out and take a look." Lord Ma stood up and walked out quickly.

I saw that the servants outside were in a mess, gathered together, pointing at the pillar.

Seeing Lord Ma coming out, they all looked over and pointed at the pillar and said, "Lord, look~"

Lord Ma looked closely and saw a dagger stuck in a piece of cloth on a pillar more than two meters high, with some words written on it.

Lord Ma was also startled and looked around. Who was playing this prank?

"Master, please take a quick look at what is written on it?" Mrs. Ma urged.

"Yes, sir, take a look at what's written on it. Maybe there's news about the young lady." Butler Liang said.

Lord Ma reacted only then and tried to pull out the dagger, but found that he could not do it. The dagger was about three inches long, but it was nearly halfway embedded in the wall, which showed that this man had profound skills.

Lord Ma pulled out the dagger with both hands, using all his strength, and opened the cloth strip with trembling hands.

It was written solemnly: "If you want Miss Ma to be safe, please tell the emperor that Yunlai Inn will be waiting for you at noon tomorrow. Except for General Dingyuan and the Tenth Prince, no one else is allowed to approach. No one will be waiting after the time."

Lord Ma's heart was pounding. Judging from the meaning of the note, it probably meant that the other party wanted to see the Emperor, and no one else was allowed to get close except General Dingyuan and the Tenth Prince.

Madam Ma also gasped when she saw this. Who on earth was this person? He was so arrogant that he wanted to see the emperor. He had put so much thought into seeing the emperor.

He kidnapped his own daughter just to see the emperor. How could he know that the emperor would see him for his daughter?

"Master, what should we do?" Mrs. Ma was at a loss.

The person they wanted to see was the emperor, but they were just ministers, how could they possibly invite the emperor? How could the emperor condescend to see his daughter? !

"I'm going to find the emperor." Ma Dong stood up with a serious face.

He decided that he must go find the emperor. At this moment, only the emperor could save his daughter, so he had to give it a try, no matter if it worked or not.

It is said that General Dingyuan and the Tenth Prince returned to the capital for a pilgrimage. It was already noon when they told the emperor about this matter, and the emperor became interested.

Who is the other party? Why did he kidnap Miss Ma? Could it be that the other party came for the marriage of the tenth brother?

"Your Majesty, what should we do about this?" General Dingyuan looked at the emperor.

He had no clue at the moment and didn't know where to start.

The emperor looked at He Li and saw that he looked troubled. He was moved and asked, "Tenth brother, do you know who kidnapped Miss Ma?"

Thinking of what Shen Ping saw him just now, He Li was a little dazed. He didn't know whether it was his mother who kidnapped Miss Ma.

If it's true, then this matter will become a big deal. How will it end then?

He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't hear the emperor's question to him. The emperor looked at He Li carefully and saw that he was absent-minded, as if he was worried about something.

He couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. It seemed that his tenth brother probably knew who the other person was.

"Tenth Prince, Tenth Prince, the Emperor is asking you a question."

Seeing that He Li did not respond to the emperor, General Dingyuan nudged him with his elbow.

"Ah~"

He Li finally woke up from his dream and looked at General Dingyuan and asked, "What did General Feng say?"

"The emperor is asking you a question, asking if you know who the other party is!" Feng Shuo said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, I don't know." He Li clasped his hands together and said.

"Oh~"

The emperor stretched out his tone and said, "It seems that the other party doesn't want you to marry Miss Ma. Could it be that they are really targeting you?"

The emperor said this intentionally or unintentionally. His intuition told him that this matter was not that simple.

No matter what the emperor said, He Li denied it and said he didn't know.

At this moment, Su Desheng stepped forward to report that Lord Ma had an important matter to discuss with the emperor, and that it was extremely urgent as it was related to his own daughter.

"Please invite him in quickly." The emperor's eyes lit up. It seemed that the other party might have made some new moves. The show was getting more and more interesting.

"Your Highness~"

Ma Dong walked in and knelt on his knees.

"Lord Ma, please stand up quickly and tell me what's going on?" the emperor said.

"Your Majesty, this is what I found in my house, please take a look~" As he said this, Ma Dong raised the dagger and the note above his head and presented them to him.

Su Desheng hurried forward, took the thing in his hand, and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the note, then repeatedly looked at the dagger in his hand and handed it to Su Desheng: "Su Desheng, show it to General Dingyuan and the Tenth Prince."

Upon hearing this, Su Desheng hurried forward, took the things from the emperor's hand, and showed them to General Dingyuan and the Tenth Prince.
