The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

Chapter 217 4 Princesses Missing

The three young ladies from the Duke of England's mansion have now arrived at the Cining Palace.

Xie Yuzhen and Chen Guipin got up early in the morning and went to the Shanggong Bureau to get their account books and other things. When she came back, she passed by Yanzhang Palace and saw a familiar maid suddenly jumped out from the doorway, blocked Xie Yuzhen's sedan chair, and knelt straight down: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty Zhao Guipin!"

The sedan chair stopped immediately, Xia Zhi stepped forward and forcibly helped the old maid up. Xie Yuzhen finally saw her face clearly: "Isn't this Aunt Jia? Why didn't you go to take care of the Fourth Princess today?"

Although Liu Shuyi's Yanzhang Palace was not guarded like Changrui Palace, it was also strictly forbidden to enter and leave at will. Liu Shuyi herself was confined in the palace because of the crime of deliberately pushing Concubine Xu and causing her miscarriage, and her seal was taken away.

Although her biological mother was guilty, the Fourth Princess would not be implicated. She was just temporarily moved out of the main hall of Yanzhang Palace and put in the care of the maids and palace servants. She was not allowed to meet Liu Shuyi again.

Jia Ma said in a mournful tone, "Your Highness is not feeling well and had a slight fever this morning. Unfortunately, most of the doctors in the Imperial Hospital have gone to Changrui Palace. The two doctors invited by the palace servants could not diagnose the cause of Your Highness' illness. So I want to go to Kunning Palace and ask the Queen to send a doctor from the Consort Xian."

"Who would have thought that the Empress was not in Kunning Palace. I went to the Shanggong Bureau and found that Concubine Li was not there either!" Nanny Jia started crying as she spoke. As a wet nurse, she had no way to ask the Emperor for help. The most she could do was to ask the guards guarding the palace gate to help pass on the message.

Although the emperor pretended to suspend court for three days for Concubine Huaijing, he could not really just ignore everything. He only suspended the grand court meetings, and all government affairs to be handled every day were sent directly to the Lizheng Hall, and several senior officials also had to go to the Lizheng Hall to discuss matters.

He couldn't spare the energy to deal with the affairs of the harem for the time being, and Changrui Palace was under martial law. Although everything seemed normal on the surface, in fact, except for the emperor's trusted palace maids, no one was allowed to enter but to leave. If Nanny Jia rashly went there, not only would she not be able to invite the imperial physician, but she would also be stuck there.

"Xiazhi, you and Aunt Jia go to Changrui Palace together, and I will go in to see the Fourth Princess." Xie Yuzhen thought about it and made a decision.

Since the emperor can speak sweet words so fluently, he should at least give himself some privileges. Don't just have a mouth that can only say nice things!

After realizing that the emperor had known about the existence of the system for a long time, and was even once its owner, and had used the system to do many things, Xie Yuzhen was terrified at first, but she soon realized that even if the emperor had already known about the future, from his various behaviors, he was not like those pedantic people who were anxious to nip in the bud about women taking power. Instead, he was indulgent towards her, and even... fanned the flames and added fuel to the fire.

Xie Yuzhen couldn't figure out what the emperor was going to do, so she decided to give up and continue to guess the emperor's inner thoughts. No matter what he was going to do - as long as he dared to give, Xie Yuzhen would dare to accept it. However, once something was in her hands, it would not be so easy for others to take it away.

especially.

Now Xie Ruizhen has at most exposed his ambition and a silly dream-making system.

The emperor couldn't possibly know about the save game - Xie Yuzhen had slapped him in the face without any hesitation. If he could still endure it and continue to let Xie Yuzhen do whatever he wanted, then Xie Yuzhen could only guess that the emperor might be a masochist at heart...

Not to mention.

There is also a world consciousness that is modifying the immortal laws.

After counting his own cards, Xie Yuzhen felt more confident, and then, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Angry at the emperor.

Of course the emperor knew that she was angry, so last night in Shouning Palace, Xie Yuzhen slept on a low couch in the corridor partition of her bedroom. The true love in his eyes did not even earn her a chance to go to bed, but he was not angry. Instead, he got up early in the morning and continued to speak a bunch of sticky and crazy nonsense to Xie Yuzhen, as if he would accomplish his mission as long as he could make Xie Yuzhen angry with him.

The more he acted like this, the more Xie Yuzhen didn't want him to get his wish. Instead, he acted calm and indifferent. After getting dressed and kicking the bastard away, he immediately rushed to the Shanggong Bureau to grab the first benefit he would gain from this battle.

Aunt Jia thanked Xia Zhi profusely and hurried away with him.

Xie Yuzhen entered the Yanzhang Palace, explained his purpose to the palace servant guarding the gate, and was then led by the palace servant to the place where the fourth princess was temporarily staying.

But when she arrived, she didn't see any trace of the Fourth Princess. Instead, the palace maids were all searching around in fear. A palace maid in green saw Xie Yuzhen and immediately ran over and knelt down as if she had seen a savior: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, help me!"

Xie Yuzhen's eyebrows suddenly jumped: "What's going on?"

"The fourth princess has disappeared. We have looked for her everywhere but cannot find her!" The green-clad palace maid was almost crying.

"Where can the Fourth Princess go alone when she is so young? Was there anyone coming in or out of your place this morning?" Xie Ruizhen asked.

The maid in green nodded with trembling lips: "Grandma Jia has been out..."

"I came in to look after the princess because I met Aunt Jia at the door."

The green-clothed maid's eyes were blank for a moment, then suddenly widened, her voice filled with fear: "And... and the little eunuch beside Madam Shuyi... his name is, his name is Hangzi, he, he came to return the toys that the Fourth Princess left in the main hall, just after Nanny Jia left..."

"He left with a huge basket, and then the Fourth Princess disappeared!" The green-clad palace maid collapsed.

Seeing this, Xie Yuzhen had no choice but to order the palace servants to ask about the whereabouts of the young eunuch.

After a while, a palace maid came to report that Hangzi had entered the main hall carrying a basket.

......What does Liu Shuyi want to do now?

Could it be that she hoped that the emperor would forgive her again for the sake of his daughter?

Xie Wei really didn’t think it looked like that.

She called together all the palace maids who had come with her, as well as those who served the Fourth Princess, and charged towards the main hall of Yanzhang Palace aggressively but cautiously.

The door to the main hall was closed.

Several palace servants were guarding outside the door. When they saw Xie Yuzhen bringing people over, they all showed relieved expressions.

Xie Yuzhen ignored them and directly ordered the palace servants to break down the door of the main hall.

get inside.

But there was no sign of the Fourth Princess. Only Liu Shuyi was sitting alone on a chair with disheveled hair. When she found someone had broken open the door, she slowly raised her head and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Maybe it's because our guild has had bad luck recently and forgot to check the almanac before going out." Xie Yu really didn't waste any words, "Where's the fourth princess?"

Liu Shuyi did not answer this, but looked at Xie Yuzhen with a puzzled look: "You love your majesty terribly, just like Wang and Song, you love him so much that you can even tolerate other people's children?"

She sneered, "Oh, I don't believe it. It's not just the women in the palace. Every woman who serves the same man will fight for it. The way you two are acting so hypocritically really makes me sick!"

"Stop talking nonsense. The Fourth Princess is fine, but you are the only one who is going to die. If the Fourth Princess gets into an accident, your whole family will be ruined. I'm afraid even Hong's grave will have to be dug up and her corpse whipped."

Liu Shuyi's expression suddenly became angry: "How could I harm my own daughter! It's just... I can't go out, and these servants won't listen to me, a person who has fallen out of favor. I have no choice but to let Baohui go out quietly and send a message home..."

Although the incident of the Bewitching Incense has not yet happened, the Hong family will definitely be held accountable, and even the Shunyi Marquis' Mansion will be implicated again.

Marquis Shunyi has remarried now. Marquis Shunyi's wife had previously visited the palace when Liu Shuyi regained favor. Liu Shuyi hoped that the news could get out so that her parents' family could prepare early.

"Are you crazy? She's still having a fever?!" Xie Yu really couldn't understand Liu Shuyi. She had indeed put vying for favor before her daughter, but she still remembered her daughter's preferences and taboos. When she was punished, the first thing she thought about was her child.

After bringing her daughter back home, she doted on her and acted like a loving mother. But today, it seems that she still puts her family before her own daughter.

"What is a royal heir without the support of his mother's family in this great capital?"

"Wake up, idiot! Your mother's family in Dasheng Kyoto is nothing!"
