If you keep making noise, I won’t stand it anymore!
Chapter 453: Final Question
When the two maids and Cui'er returned to the reception hall of Shenxingsi, they were seen by the eldest prince who was standing by the window.
Without much thought, he recognized Nanny Li's identity. When he saw the three people carrying cloth bags of different sizes, alarm bells sounded in his heart and his face changed drastically.
Over the years, many things concerning the eldest prince had been handled by these two people. Seeing that they were obviously heading towards the reception hall, he felt something was wrong.
If the two of them confessed, not only would he completely lose his advantage, but everything he had done in Haoyue would be destroyed, completely cutting off his retreat.
Thinking of this, the eldest prince grabbed the window frame and shouted with all his strength.
"Mammy, Cui'er, I'm here!"
"Come here quickly, I have something to tell you!"
"Mammy, Mammy..."
Hearing his shout, Nanny Zhang paused for a moment, and then continued to follow Nanny Li as if she had heard nothing, while Cui'er did not pause at all from beginning to end.
Seeing that the two remained indifferent, the eldest prince changed his shouting to cursing.
"You two damned filthy bastards, get over here right now! Do you hear me?"
"This prince is calling you, why don't you get over here right now? Be careful or I'll skin you alive!"
"Hey, hey..."
......
Soon, the three of them put his shouting behind them. Seeing this, Nanny Li, who was walking in front, finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, she became more and more certain that this Nanny Zhang must know what they wanted.
Seeing the three people gradually disappear, the eldest prince sat down on the ground dejectedly, no longer able to stand up. His face was as pale as paper, and he kept muttering: "It's over, it's over, everything is over."
The noise outside the courtyard was promptly heard by the three elders and the tiger leader sitting in the reception hall, and the four of them couldn't help showing joy on their faces.
"Did it work?" asked the tiger leader in disbelief.
The great elder nodded and said, "It seems that it has been done. Go and tell the others quickly. Once we get the answer here, we will start back to the tribe immediately."
"I have a feeling that things may be beyond our expectations. Everyone should be mentally prepared." The third elder, who had his eyes closed, suddenly interrupted mysteriously.
Just when they were about to ask further questions, they heard Nanny Li's voice reporting from outside the room.
The topic was interrupted at this point, so the Great Elder and the others had to put it aside for now and ask in detail later.
Without much effort, Nanny Zhang told them exactly what they wanted to know.
According to her recollection, the prince had given the bottle of medicine powder to a girl named Luo Li'er more than ten years ago.
"At that time, I seemed to have heard the master mention that she should find an opportunity to enter the palace, and it would be best if she could become the woman of Emperor Haoyue and try to have a place in the palace."
Looking at the three elders and the tiger leader sitting at the top, Aunt Zhang said so. Since the decision has been made, Aunt Zhang just wants to be straightforward and has no intention of hiding anything.
"She is in the capital?" The third elder suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a deep voice.
"If his plan had gone according to plan, Miss Luo Li'er and her servant would have most likely ended up in the capital." Nanny Zhang added, "Back then, the master left an extra team of sixteen in the capital.
"I once saw the team leader holding a jade pendant that was exactly the same as Miss Luo's. Because my son was in the team, I was extra cautious at the time."
The third elder nodded, and her words matched what Cui'er had said.
"Later, did you receive any news from Master Ling?"
Hearing this, the light in Zhang Ma's eyes dimmed and she shook her head stiffly, "Ever since we left the capital that time, we have been completely out of touch for more than ten years."
"Here, in consideration of the clues I provided, could you please help me find my son? This is my only wish. He is my only son in this life. I want to see him alive or dead..."
Aunt Zhang couldn't continue talking, tears were streaming down her face. Cui Er held her arm with one hand, and patted her back with the other hand, giving her silent comfort.
One of the cruelest things in the world is to lose contact with your loved ones and end up having to wait until the old to see them die.
"We may not be able to agree to your request." The Great Elder began to speak, but he was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"what?"
Hearing this, Nanny Zhang opened her mouth wide, forgetting her sadness for a moment, and shouted anxiously: "I have no other requests, only this one wish. As long as you can agree, what else do you want to know? As long as I know, I will tell you! Even if it means my own life!"
"Mammy, please don't talk nonsense." Cui'er interrupted Mammy Zhang with red eyes, and turned to look at the four people in power: "Cui'er is begging you on behalf of Mammy, please help her. If you have any news about Brother Zhang, just send someone to bring back a message."
Seeing the two people below them who were so anxious that they were at a loss, even the second elder, the third elder and the tiger leader looked over with suspicion.
The great elder shook his head speechlessly and hurriedly tried to make amends: "You misunderstood what I meant. I meant that you are returning to the tribe with us today, and you will be a free man in the future. It is natural for you to come and find your son yourself."
"what?!"
The surprise came so suddenly that it stunned Zhang Ma and Cui Er. They could only utter a single word with their mouths wide open.
"Yes, if it is convenient for you, Madam, can you come with us and Miss Cui'er to the capital? There are some people and things that require you two to be witnesses."
Looking at the two people who were still in a daze, Nanny Li smiled and pulled their collars, "The elder is asking you a question."
The two of them finally reacted here, and Cui'er even burst into tears, more excited than when she heard that she could return to the tribe.
"Mammy, did you hear that? You are free like Cui'er now. We can go back to the tribe together to see our father and find our brother!"
“Hmm,” Aunt Zhang nodded blankly. Finally, she couldn’t help but cover her face and cry: “Wuwuwu…”
Those who have never lost their freedom will never understand the value of freedom, just like those who have never experienced hunger will never truly understand the value of food.
At this moment, if Meixiang were here, she would definitely not be able to help but say: Life is precious, but love is more precious. If it is for freedom, both can be abandoned.
After Aunt Zhang calmed down, she suddenly said, "Although I don't have the formula for that bottle of medicine powder, I have collected several herbs and an important medicine."
