"Oh my God!"
"At the bottom of Bianjing City, at the feet of the Emperor."
"Some people actually kidnapped the second young lady of the Rong family at the Lantern Festival in front of you."
In the dimly lit main hall of Wei Ruixuan, the ladies of the Sheng family were all gathered together. The eldest lady and the old lady were sitting on the main seats, and the one who just exclaimed "God is the eldest lady, Wang Ruofu" .
The old lady couldn't sit still in Shou'an Hall.
She knew that Lu Ze was summoned to the palace by the housekeeper not long ago, and the old lady became very uneasy. She always felt that the undercurrent under Bianjing City was showing signs of rising.
This time the second young lady of the Rong family was kidnapped, which seemed to be a prelude to some kind of extreme uneasiness.
Minglan's face looked slightly downcast.
Although she did not like the arrogant Rong Feiyan, she still felt a little worried after hearing that something happened to her.
Ru Lan, who was sitting on the other side, was asking in a low voice at the moment: "Then Rong Feiyan was kidnapped...did she... be raped by that?"
As soon as these words came out, Wei Ruixuan became even quieter.
Hai Chaoyun sighed and said, "Even if it doesn't happen, the reputation of that girl from the Rong family has been completely ruined. Today she was thrown into the most prosperous and lively Ma Xing Street in Bianjing. In less than half a day, the news spread throughout the capital. The streets and alleys.”
Yu Yanran had a slightly panicked look on her face. She had a weak temperament, so she was a little panicked when she heard such a thing.
"Then...have those gangsters been caught now?"
"The patrol battalion searched Bianjing City thoroughly, but still couldn't find any trace of the criminals." Hai Chaoyun shook his head, with a somewhat reserved look in his eyes: "It stands to reason that Bianjing City can be used for personnel management. To describe it harshly, such a group of criminals could not catch even a single one..."
On the main seat, the old lady gave the order.
The Sheng family has to keep its doors closed these days, especially the girls in the family, who are not allowed to go out.
The old lady knew what Hai Chaoyun meant. This gang of gangsters didn't look like simple gangsters. There might be someone behind them.
Lu Ze didn't return home until late that night. No one knew what Lu Ze was doing in the palace that day. Even the old lady didn't tell her the next day. She only heard Lu Ze say that these days Children at home should be restrained.
Two days later, news came out in Rong Mansion that Rong Feiyan committed suicide by hanging from a beam at night.
Immediately afterwards, the news of getting married began to spread from the Duke's Palace of Qi and Prince Yong's Palace.
Two things combined.
There are many places worthy of people's careful consideration.
The smart Minglan locked herself in the room for a day. At this time, she had a little touch of the essence of the matter, and her face became extremely pale. What happened to Rong Feiyan... was because of her young father-in-law?
Minglan thought about Princess Yong and Princess Jiacheng whom she met at the Duke's Mansion of Qi that day.
She only felt the cold air coming from the soles of her feet and going straight to her head. Is this mother and daughter so vicious?
The groggy Minglan went to the old lady's house and told her grandmother what was on her mind. She put her head in her grandmother's arms, with a miserable face and tears in her eyes.
"grandmother."
"Is this really done by Prince Yong's Palace?"
"The official family has not officially issued a decree to establish a crown prince, but the Yong Wang family is so domineering?"
….
"And the young father-in-law..."
The old lady also frowned at this time.
"Princess Pingning should be keeping a close eye on the matter between you and Qi Heng, but Bianjing City has become so unstable right now, I'm afraid there will be an extremely cold downpour on this gloomy sky."
"Is your father's prophecy true..."
The old lady murmured: "My roommate is at war with me. Is our country really going to have civil strife?"
...
On February 2, the dragon raises its head.
On this day, Bianjing City was shrouded in rain all day long. The day that was originally slightly warm suddenly became a bit colder, as if it was back to normal.
It's almost winter in the twelfth lunar month.
Changbai went to the Hanlin Academy early. Before leaving, Lu Ze gave him a few instructions.
"The weather is bad today, don't go anywhere, just stay in the Hanlin Academy."
Today is the official wedding day between the Duke of Qi and the Prince of Yong. Boxes of dowries were carried into the Duke of Qi's residence. The red makeup in Shili looked very abrupt in the heavy rain, but Bianjing City still seemed very lively at this moment.
Because many people know that King Yong is the future prince.
Not to mention it was raining, even if he had to go under the knife to witness the happy event of Princess Jiacheng and the young father-in-law.
The eldest lady didn't go because the old lady at home and the master had told her that they were not allowed to go to any banquets during this period. The ladies in the house were not allowed to step out of the house. The eldest lady still complained slightly.
"You don't have to go to other banquets."
"But that's a banquet for Prince Yong's family, and my family has good relations with the Duke of Qi. The princess and his wife have sent invitations. If you don't go, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?"
[In view of the general environment,
The old lady's answer was very simple.
"Go ahead."
"If you go, don't come back."
On this day, many things happened in Bianjing.
Just after Shen hour in the afternoon, dusk drums sounded in the city. The deep sound of winter in the heavy rain hit people's hearts. The rain was full of soldiers patrolling the streets, and the distinguished guests attending the banquet at Prince Yong's Mansion, at this moment Their expressions became extremely strange.
In just a few hours, there was no more pedestrians on the streets of Bianjing City.
All the wealthy families closed their doors.
Until the evening, the Sheng family could not wait for Lu Ze and Chang Bai to return home, and the eldest lady was really panicked.
For several days, there was no news, no one alive or dead, no bodies.
The ladies of the Sheng family gathered around the old lady of Shou'antang. At this time, even Hai Chaoyun, who had always had a wealthy mind, had dull eyes. Mo Lan and Ru Lan were already crying softly, and Minglan held on tightly. Yu Yanran's hand had a vague expression.
At this time, Chang Feng was walking around the room anxiously, and little Chang Huai was held in the arms of the old lady.
Even the two concubines Wei Shuyi and Lin Sushuang no longer abided by the so-called rules at this time. When they came to the old lady's room, both of them looked extremely pale, Lin Sushuang even worse.
Because she had experienced the shadow of having her home ransacked, it was a pain that she never wanted to think about again in her life.
Lin Sushuang's voice was hoarse: "Hong Lang..."
The long-lost Sheng family all stayed together, except for the two most important men in the family.
Minglan was trembling all over at this moment, even colder than before when she learned the truth about Rong Feiyan's accident, with coldness oozing from her bones.
Only at this moment did she truly realize the importance of her father and brother to the family.
She didn't dare to think about what would happen if something happened to these two people...
The old lady became the backbone of the family and issued many orders. After a long time, she looked at the still raining sky outside and remembered what Lu Ze said to her in the Shou'an Hall.
"Such heavy rain..."
"Can we really catch fish..."
Bu Xiang is having fun
