The night was silent, and the cold wind was filled with snowflakes, howling like ghosts crying and wolves howling.

There was a sudden "beep" sound, and an ignorant little boy set off a firecracker, breaking the silence of the night and adding some festive flavor to the New Year.

Tonight, many people have a sleepless night, and the lights in the study room stay on all night.

The orange candlelight reflected the prince's handsome and solemn face. His hands were groping the cuffs of Guangxiu, his eyes were peaceful and tranquil.

The Crown Princess's eyes were red, and her eyes seemed to be filled with murderous intent: "Your Highness, this is a slap in your face. Mother and others must be brought out safely! Then this matter must be thoroughly investigated, and the people behind it must be cut into pieces.

!”

The prince said solemnly: "A thorough investigation will definitely be carried out. The person must be redeemed first, right?"

A cold light flashed in the Crown Princess's eyes, "I feel that this matter is related to Shangguan Ruoli. She was ridiculed by Mrs. Xunyang Hou in the East Palace, so..."

"Feeling?" The prince interrupted her, "You can manage the back house by your feelings, but you rely on evidence to decide a case, not your feelings! From now on, you will also rely on your feelings when you are the master of the world?"

The Crown Princess choked and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, please forgive me. I was too anxious and lost my sense of proportion."

The prince said quietly: "From now on, don't be so smart that you are used as a gunman and enjoy it!"

"Your Highness!" The Crown Princess's face turned red and she was a little angry.

The prince pointed at the door with his chin, "Step back."

He knew that Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli were not ordinary. If they hadn't offered jade mines, he wouldn't have the money to raise troops and win over the courtiers. If they hadn't offered them the art of suturing wounds, his reputation in the army would not be so high.

If they hadn't asked Rong Chuan to bring good medicine to the emperor and save his life, the emperor would not have allowed him to ascend to the position of prince.

He still had to consider whether to reuse Dongming Ziyu. After all, he was too close to Rong Chuan, and he was afraid that Rong Qian would think too much.

But we can't offend him. The Shangguan family is a medical family, Shangguan Lin is the trusted physician of the prince, and Shangguan Ruoli has an unexpected encounter and learns more advanced medical skills. We can't offend the doctor, because he doesn't know when he will put it to use.

The Crown Princess bowed and left. As soon as she turned around, her gentle and kind face turned ferocious. When she saw the two brothers Rong Qian and Rong Chuan coming side by side, the malice in their eyes seemed to be real.

The children left behind have grown up and can run errands for the prince, but her children are still young and are at a disadvantage in terms of age.

Rong Qian is dressed in black soft armor, with a heroic appearance and a stern look. Rong Chuan is dressed in a black embroidered broad robe with red edges, and has a jade belt around his waist. He looks like a young man with a jade tree facing the wind.

When the two saw the queen, they greeted the queen respectfully and said, "Mother, concubine."

The Crown Princess smiled, "Did you just come back from outside?"

Rong Qian said: "We went to Huguo Temple to set up defenses, and the mountains around that area have been blocked by water. It is difficult to move at night, but we will be able to rescue the ladies tomorrow."

The Crown Princess nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You go ahead. His Highness is waiting for you in the study."

Rong Qian and Rong Chuan saluted and moved out of the way, "Mother and concubine, go well."

When the Crown Princess came with a group of maids and the mother-in-law, the two brothers looked at each other and walked towards the Crown Prince's study.

The icy night wind was covered with snowflakes, a bit cold, and you could smell the lingering fragrance of plum blossoms.

Rong Qian took off his cloak and put it on Rong Chuan, "Wear so little, don't catch a cold."

Rong Chuan raised his hand to refuse and said, "I'm not cold."

Rong Qian insisted on putting it on him, tied his belt with his slender hands, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't worry, I will take care of the aftermath for you."

Rong Chuan's lowered eyes suddenly widened, his eyes flickering with vigilance.

Rong Qian tied his belt for him, patted his shoulder, and said softly: "Brother, although my cloak is thin, it can still protect you from the wind and snow."

Rong Chuan squeezed the edge of his cloak and said with a smile, "Thank you, brother."

Rong Gan smiled and walked forward side by side with his younger brother. The wind and snow became stronger, causing the corners of their robes to fly.

Shangguan Ruoli couldn't sleep as the wind and snow covered the windows with snow foam. She always felt that the kidnapping incident was related to her. I'm afraid Rong Chuan is the only one with such ability and heart. He is so young, so it is inevitable for him to do things If you are not thorough, what will you do if the secret is revealed?

Dongming Ziyu was already asleep. He felt her tossing and turning while spreading the pancakes. He put his arms around her and said in a daze, "Go to sleep. Even if the sky falls, it won't be our turn to carry it."

In the past, they were royal family, emperors and empresses, carrying the burden of the world. Although they were unparalleled in dignity, their life was not easy. Now, although they are small people, they have nothing to do and are more comfortable.

Shangguan Ruoli leaned in his arms, listened to the sound of wind and snow, and fell asleep in a daze, but he had been dreaming all night.

I got up the next day and waited for news from Huguo Temple. The situation on the street was very tense, and neither of the children went to Shangguan's house to study.

At noon, Shangguan Ruolan sent someone to deliver the news that all the captive ladies had been rescued. However, they were very cold. All the jewelry on their bodies was taken away, and their outer clothes were also stripped off. The officers and soldiers When they rushed into the Earth Temple, they were all tied together in their middle clothes and shivering.

Shangguan Ruoli asked worriedly: "Has the murderer been caught?"

The woman said: "I didn't catch them. I heard from the ladies that the murderers said they didn't expect their status to be so valuable. They didn't want the ransom, so they took their jewelry and clothes and ran away. At that time, the officers and soldiers had not had time to The mountain is closed."

The officers and soldiers did not know that they had escaped, and they did not dare to attack rashly because they had hostages. When they went up the mountain with the ransom at dawn, they had already disappeared, and the traces were buried by a heavy snowfall.

Shangguan Ruoli rewarded the mother-in-law and asked her to go back.

Ling Yue worriedly said: "Several noble ladies were kidnapped by men for one night, and their clothes were also stripped. They won't commit suicide to save their names, right?"

Although she hated Mrs. Xunyang Hou and those gossips, she was still very kind and did not want their lives.

Wulang gnawed on a frozen persimmon and said, "Other people say, Mrs. Xunyanghou should have committed suicide, otherwise she would not look down on her mother like that."

Shangguan Ruoli also thought so, and even planned how much money she would send as a memorial ceremony for Mrs. Xunyang Hou after she passed away.

Dongming Ziyu found it funny when he heard this, "Don't worry, Mrs. Xunyang Hou will not commit suicide, and others will not let her die."

Ling Yue wondered: "Why?"

Dongming Ziyu said: "The law does not punish everyone! Moreover, if she commits suicide, what will happen to the other ladies who don't want to die?"

Wulang laughed happily, "Yes, you can't bear to die, but you can't die. It would be too unchaste for someone to die."

However, Shangguan Ruoli was still looking forward to sending out the memorial ceremony. He was looking forward to it, looking forward to it. Even after the New Year, there was no news of Mrs. Xunyang Hou's death. Several high-ranking ladies were sick and closed their doors to thank guests and recuperate.

For such a big matter, the public opinion circle in the capital was like a pool of stagnant water. No one talked about it, as if the incident had never happened. As for the fact that Shangguan Ruoli had been abducted and trafficked, he seemed to have lost his memory, and no one mentioned it.

Shangguan Ruoli said with a smile: "I think I should go visit my grandmother."
