As soon as Caiwei's words came out, everyone was shocked.
Emperor Wu Shun looked at her steadily: "Seriously?"
Caiwei lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip.
Although she doesn't understand court.
But the fourth prince must have lived an extremely difficult life after pretending to be crazy and acting stupid in the palace for more than ten years.
If she becomes Emperor Wu Shun's concubine, she can help him...
Besides, this is also her parents' wish.
When her father took her to Feng Mansion, he showed her the suicide note written by her father before his death.
Daddy hopes that she will enter the palace and become famous.
Thinking of this, Caiwei raised her head, her eyes full of determination, "Yes, everything I said is true."
"Okay, then I will follow you." Emperor Wu Shun looked at Gao Hai and said, "According to my decree, make Miss Caiwei my concubine."
Concubine, second only to the fourth concubine.
The legitimate daughter of an official of the second rank or above may not be directly granted concubine status even if she enters the palace.
What's more, she's just an adopted daughter.
After Feng Jian and Feng Lilan were stunned, their eyes burst into ecstasy.
Mo Ronyan's hand on the table clenched suddenly.
He subconsciously looked at Liu Wanyue.
Liu Wanyue quickly lowered her head.
But the pain in her eyes did not escape Mo Ronyan's eyes.
Su Ruotang held Mo Ronyan's hand worriedly: "Ayan..."
Mo Ronyan closed his eyes and patted the back of her hand gently, "If you are free during this period, please go to the palace to spend more time with your mother and concubine."
Su Ruotang hummed softly.
At this moment, a young palace maid hurriedly came over and said, "Xian Fei, princess, she said she is not feeling well and is going back to the palace first."
With a worried look on her face, Concubine Xian stood up and saluted Emperor Wu Shun, "Your Majesty, sister, I am going to see Zhaohe first?"
Emperor Wu Shun nodded: "Go."
Liu Wanyue also stood up: "Your Majesty, today's winner has been chosen. I am feeling a little unwell, so please leave first."
Emperor Wu Shun's mind was mostly focused on Caiwei. Hearing this, he looked at her worriedly and said, "I'll ask Dr. Wang to take a look at it for you."
"No need, I just didn't sleep well last night. Grandma Qin will wait for a while..."
Before Liu Wanyue finished speaking, she suddenly paused.
She looked sideways behind her.
Aunt Qin accompanied Tan Zhixi to change clothes, but she hasn't come back yet.
Tan Ming and his wife, who had been worried about Tan Zhixi, immediately stood up: "Your Majesty, the concubine, my little daughter..."
Emperor Wu Shun's face darkened, and he raised his hand to interrupt them, "Gao Hai, take someone to find Miss Tan."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Hai's apprentice Xiao Dengzi ran over with a pale face, "Your Majesty, Madam, Miss Tan is missing!"
"What?" Su Ruotang turned over the tea cup in his sleeve.
Wang's body swayed, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Emperor Wu Shun asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
Little Dengzi plopped down and knelt down in front of Emperor Wu Shun, resting his forehead on the ground, "I don't know. I saw that Miss Tan and Nanny Qin went to change clothes and didn't return for a long time."
"This servant is the chief eunuch of the Xianqing Palace, so he wanted to find them."
"But I don't want to see the unconscious Nanny Qin in the back hall, but Miss Tan is missing."
Mo Jinming stood up suddenly: "Father, I request a thorough investigation!"
Emperor Wu Shun also looked a little ugly.
Liu Wanyue is his beloved concubine.
Someone actually dared to take action in Xianqing Hall.
Doesn't that mean that his harem has been planted with spies!
How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
"Mu Feng, take someone to investigate! You must investigate clearly for me!"
Su Ruotang bit her lower lip and stood up: "Father, I and my wife want to find my cousin together."
Emperor Wu Shun nodded: "Go."
Su Ruotang nodded lightly to Wang and Tan Ming, signaling them to feel at ease, and hurried to the back hall with Mu Feng and others.
The corners of Mo Chenyi's lips curled up, and he pulled Mo Jinming's sleeves pretending to be afraid, "Brother, Chen Yi is afraid."
Mo Jinming suppressed the panic in his heart and patted Mo Chenyi's hand, "Chen Yi is not afraid, it's okay."
There was an uproar among the people around:
"Tan Zhixi disappeared in the Xianqing Palace. Who is so brave and dares to do something in the Xianqing Palace?"
"The Tan family tree attracts the wind, so it's not surprising that it is being targeted."
"But if you dare to take action in Xianqing Palace, the person behind it is definitely a high-ranking person."
"You arrested Tan Zhixi. Do you want money?"
"It could also be Jie Se!"
The backyard of Xianqing Palace.
Su Ruotang secretly released the Gu butterfly and followed the Gu butterfly to the lake.
The Gu butterfly hovered on the lake for a while, then quietly returned to Su Ruotang's sleeve.
The tentacles touched the back of Su Ruotang's hand.
Su Ruoxi's heart dropped in her throat.
My cousin is still alive.
Mu Feng led people to search the backyard, but found no trace of Tan Zhixi.
"Third Princess, we did not find Miss Tan."
Su Ruotang stared at the lake steadily, her beautiful face expressionless, "Isn't Nanny Qin awake yet?"
"No, the drug the other party used was very heavy." Mu Feng felt a little helpless.
If Nanny Qin wakes up, she might be able to provide some useful information.
Su Ruotang bit her lip: "My cousin's life is not in danger."
But that doesn't mean you weren't hurt.
When Mu Feng heard this, he felt slightly relieved and said, "The subordinate will go back and resume his duties first to expand the search area."
"good."
An hour later, Nanny Qin woke up.
But she only remembered opening the door and losing consciousness.
Everyone had already dispersed, leaving only Wang and Tan Ming in the front hall.
Seeing that it was getting dark, I searched every corner of the palace, but there was still no news about Tan Zhixi.
Wang was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Mo Chenyi sat obediently next to Mo Jinming.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Mo Jinming's anxious look, and the color in his eyes became darker.
He looked at Xiao Dengzi calmly.
Xiao Dengzi shook his head gently at him.
Mo Chenyi's eyes darkened, and he subconsciously tapped the table with his fingertips, then paused.
Tanzhixi was thrown into the lake, but her body disappeared.
Maybe she's not dead.
So who saved her?
"Chen Yi, you go back home first." Mo Jinming looked deeply at Mo Chenyi.
He really couldn't believe that Mo Chenyi was pretending to be stupid.
Mo Chenyi heard the faint meaning in Mo Jinming's tone, and his heart sank slightly.
Yang Ming and Dai Yunmu must have told their brother about him pretending to be stupid.
But because of the influence of seduction, although his brother had doubts in his heart, he still couldn't be cruel to him.
Soon, my brother will only trust him.
Mo Chenyi bit the corner of his mouth and said in a somewhat aggrieved tone, "Will my brother come to see Chen Yi tomorrow?"
