Lingxi glanced at Mrs. Wei and said, "Everyone except the princess and the girls in the mansion are going."
They all want to go, but in fact it’s just a few people.
Wei Shicheng kidnapped the prince and disappeared. He had no concubines and his son was already in prison at the Ministry of Punishment.
The second lady is dead. The second master's concubine Song Qian was used by the Guo family to kill the old lady's favorite third son. She was placed under house arrest afterwards. Now she is terminally ill and has only a few days to live. Aunt Huang, who had helped Li Qingyi, had already entered the nunnery and went to the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha.
The third master has become a living dead, and his aunts have long been sold by the third wife, Guo.
The only ones who can go are the old lady, the second master and the third lady.
Mrs. Wei suddenly looked at Princess Yuanheng, "Why don't you go! You are his wife!"
Princess Yuanheng looked at her sarcastically, "This is the blessing of dragging the old lady. If you hadn't asked Yao'er to kill me, how could I have drawn a clear line with you so quickly?"
Mrs. Wei's throat suddenly choked.
Lingxi urged: "Old madam, please hurry up. Master Liu said that they are waiting outside the second door. If everyone in the house is too lazy, they won't be able to care so much."
When Mrs. Wei heard this, she gave Princess Yuan Heng a sharp look and said, "When my son comes back, you will look good on him!"
Princess Yuanheng didn't bother to say another word to her and picked up the tea cup.
Mrs. Wei's face turned purple with anger, and she tossed her sleeves and left.
Lingxi said: "Princess, please go and take a closer look."
Princess Yuanheng nodded, "Yes."
A group of people from the Wei Mansion were taken away, and everyone else in the mansion was also in panic.
When Wei Laner saw his mother Guo being taken away, he ran to Jinhuayuan and made a fuss.
Princess Yuanheng looked at Wei Laner's lame leg and said, "Yi'er has already settled the accounts with you for those shameful things you did in the past, so I won't bring them up again. Now if you are honest, I will I won’t embarrass you, but if you want to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being cruel.”
Wei Lan'er was arrogant because his maternal grandfather belonged to the Guo family, "You think I'm afraid of you! My maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother will not ignore my mother! I am their favorite granddaughter!"
Princess Yuanheng looked at her coldly, "A child cannot be taught. Someone, please send her to Shuiyue Nunnery to think about her past."
Wei Laner couldn't believe it, "Why! Why did you send me to the nunnery!"
"Why? Just because you are not a good person!"
Two women came in from outside and without hesitation, they blocked Wei Laner's mouth and dragged him out.
"Third Miss is really ignorant. Since she doesn't want to stay in the mansion, she might as well go to the nunnery and suffer a little!" Cuiwei snorted and took out a letter from her arms, "Princess, this is a letter from Aunt Li. Already!"
*****
After the first lunar month, the weather became warmer day by day. However, the climate this year was not normal. In March, it started to rain continuously.
On the third day after the prince disappeared, a heavy rain made the entire city wet and cold, and the entire capital was suddenly shrouded in a shadow.
Someone found a body in a mud pit washed away by heavy rain.
The matter was reported to the Yamen, and someone from the Yamen found a token from the body, which belonged to the guards around the prince.
The guard was killed, and something obviously happened to the prince.
At the place where the guard's body was found, people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment searched carefully several times, but found no other clues.
In a situation like this, no news is good news.
If the body cannot be found, there is still a possibility that the prince is alive.
Moreover, if he simply killed the prince, he would not bury the body of the guard. This was obviously because he was afraid of being discovered. When the time came, the city gate would be sealed and he would not be able to take the prince away.
To capture the prince but not kill him, Wei Shicheng most likely wanted to use the prince as a hostage.
The Minister of Dali Temple and the Minister of Punishment thought of this possibility almost at the same time.
In the palace.
The emperor's face was so gloomy that it was more terrifying than the violent storm outside.
The prince is the crown prince, and he is loved by the emperor and empress. His succession to the throne is almost a matter of course.
It’s up to DingTalk.
Wei Shicheng had been staying in the palace, probably staring at the prince.
After the fall of the fourth princes of the Mu family and Concubine Mu, the palace relaxed a lot. The emperor and Qin Zeng once focused on cleaning up the remnants of the Xi clan.
Although the prince has a wild temper, he has become very prudent in his behavior in recent years and will think twice before doing anything.
It was an oversight after all.
Wei Shicheng was determined to be a traitor and was lost under the eyes of the emperor!
The Mu family has fallen, and the remnants of the Xi clan are gone. What else does Wei Shicheng want to do? !
Not only can he escape from various forbidden palaces, but he can also kidnap the prince!
It really caught the emperor off guard.
Fan Su, the minister of Dali Temple who found the body of the prince's guard, was called over by the emperor for questioning.
After Fan Su finished speaking, he advised the Emperor and Prince Jiren to have their own destiny and everything would be fine.
The emperor told him to get lost expressionlessly.
The Minister of Dali Temple returned to Dali Temple in despair. As soon as he entered the door, Cui Chun, the Young Minister of Dali Temple, came over and muttered to him, "Wei Shicheng's mother has been in jail for a few days and she can't stand it anymore. It seems she can't stand it for two days." , do you want to report it to the superiors, after all, she is Wei Shicheng’s biological mother, what if she comes into use in the future?”
Fan Su frowned and said, "That old woman is evil-minded. She should just die if she dies. Isn't Wei Shicheng's biological son still there?"
When Cui Chun heard this, he knew something in his mind: "Then... should you at least tell Princess Yuanheng?"
Fan Su thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, I really need to let someone know."
If the old woman died silently, there is a high probability that the Li family and Princess Yuanheng would not forgive her. Just a reminder, it counts as a favor.
In a dark prison.
Madam Wei rolled off the bed.
It's said to be a bed, but it's actually just a wooden board with straw on it and a shabby quilt.
That quilt had been covered by several death row inmates before, and was contaminated with some unclean germs. There was darkness and dampness in the dark cell, so germs were not easy to dissipate. After Mrs. Wei covered it, the disease entered her body, and it only took a few days. , the body couldn't bear it anymore and felt so lifeless.
When she saw her eldest daughter-in-law, Princess Yuanheng, her eyes lit up.
She didn't have the strength to stand up, so she crawled over and grabbed the iron fence, "Yao'er, where's Yao'er..."
Mrs. Wei thought she could hold on until her eldest son came to save her.
But she overestimated her position in her son's heart.
The son kidnapped the prince and ran away.
He didn't even care about her mother who was thrown into prison.
She wanted to ask Wei Yao.
After all, Wei Yao is the biological son of the eldest son and the biological son of Princess Yuanheng. If Wei Yao is fine, he must at least consider it for his old grandmother.
Princess Yuanheng looked at Mrs. Wei with no expression.
In order to make her less suspicious, Wei Yao personally staged the scene of being kidnapped. If she hadn't been wearing the soft gold armor given by her son-in-law, she would have been pierced through the vest by her own son and died.
Although she did not die, the mother-son relationship between her and Wei Yao ended at that moment.
It was cut off by Wei Yao himself.
She said calmly: "Wei Yao is imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. He will never see the sun outside for the rest of his life."
Mrs. Wei's eyes widened suddenly, and the red blood in her eyes looked like ferocious insects. "She is your biological son! How can you bear it!"
Princess Yuanheng looked at her coldly, "When Yi'er's father was injured by bandits, was it you?"
