The fact that King Qingping was looking for Long Chuxia had already reached Manager Li's ears. He was a little surprised, "Why is the prince looking for Miss Long?" He was muttering when the emperor unexpectedly pushed him away and walked out, seeing a trace of emotion in his eyes. In doubt, he asked: "What's the matter?"
Manager Li didn't hide anything, and said: "Just now Xiaoquanzi came over and said that Prince Qingping was going through the palace and was looking for Long Chuxia!"
"Why are you looking for her? Isn't she in the hospital?" Speaking of that woman, he seemed to have never seen her today.
"I came all the way from Taiyuan Hospital. I heard that they even searched for Shouning Palace," Mr. Li said.
"Afraid she has to go out of the palace to do business? I have given her permission to investigate old cases twenty years ago, but now I am afraid she will handle cases outside the palace!" There was a soft look on his face, remembering that she had such courage and ability, he actually He is very proud of her. In fact, he is not as domineering as she said. He will feel sweet when he sees that the woman he likes is capable and smart.
"Didn't the Emperor order her to handle the case with King Qingping? Logically speaking, if she goes to handle the case, she should work with King Qingping!" Manager Li said again
Feng Lingxiao was stunned for a moment, "To be honest, I am really busy and confused today. Did Tang Junlong come to the palace to see me today? Did he come alone?"
"Yes, he came alone!"
"That means Baozi is not with him!" Feng Lingxiao was surprised, "Ask the guard, when did she leave the palace today?"
Manager Li hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering, "This, I will ask immediately." Of course, Xiaoquanzi also told him just now that Long Chuxia did not return to the palace last night, but this matter cannot be known to the emperor, otherwise the emperor will know that she spent the night outside the palace. Wouldn’t it be outrageous?
"Wait a minute, Li Datong, what do you have to hide from me?" How could Feng Lingxiao be so easy to fool? When he saw the wrong look on his face, he knew that he must have something to hide.
Manager Li hesitated and said: "I don't dare, it's like this. Just now...just now Xiaoquanzi said that Doctor Long did not return to the palace last night!"
"What?" Feng Lingxiao frowned, "Didn't she return to the palace last night? Does that mean that no one has seen her from last night to today?" He was not angry, but worried that twenty years ago, this case was not a trivial matter, even though he knew that she Although she had some abilities, she still asked her to handle the case together with King Qingping in order to reduce her risk. She originally thought that after Ye Zhenlong was found, he would order someone else to take over the case to prevent her from being in danger. She didn't return to the palace last night, but she didn't. If people know her whereabouts, will she be in danger?
Manager Li immediately realized, yes, could something happen? Logically speaking, no matter how much she disobeys the rules, she shouldn't stay home all night. He quickly reassured the king and said: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, I'm in a hurry to order someone." Go find it!”
"Mobilize the Royal Guards immediately," he just gave the order, and then he remembered that when Prince Zhongyong entered the palace today, he said that a woman rescued him last night, so he temporarily averted the danger. Could this woman be Long Chuxia? Prince Zhongyong entered the palace today. At that time, the identity of Long Chuxia was not very clear. In addition, he entered the palace in a hurry, so he only described the urgent aspects of the matter. He never thought of the close relationship between Long Chuxia and the emperor, so he did not say much.
"Wait a minute!" Feng Ling said with a smile, "Where is King Qingping?"
"He is probably in the Queen's Palace now. I heard that he led a few soldiers into the palace!" Manager Li replied.
"Go and invite King Qingping to the imperial study!" Feng Lingxiao said after a while.
Manager Li did not dare to hesitate and immediately took the order and left.
After a while, King Qingping came to the imperial study with several soldiers. King Qingping opened the door and said, "Ling, do you have any news about Long Chuxia?" He immediately realized that someone was there and saluted quickly: "See you, Your Majesty! "
Feng Ling smiled and frowned: "No need to be too polite! Qingping, are you looking for Long Chuxia because of the emperor's uncle's affairs?"
"The emperor already knows?" King Qingping was slightly stunned, pointing to the soldiers behind him and said: "They are the soldiers accompanying the prince back to Beijing!"
Several soldiers knelt on the ground, "See the Emperor!"
"Get up, let me ask you, is it Long Chuxia who saved your prince last night?" Feng Lingxiao asked solemnly.
A soldier replied: "Reporting to the emperor, it is Miss Long. She stayed in the temple all night last night and left in the early morning. Before leaving, she told the prince to go to the palace to see the saint, so as not to cause any misunderstanding. She also said that before noon, she would ask the prince. She had to rush to Zhenguo Temple, and she would come back herself. However, the prince rushed back in time, but there was no sign of Miss Long. Previously, the prince was tortured by the wolf demon in the temple, and he was about to lose his support. The abbot master said that if God If we can't find Miss Long before the dark, the prince will be in great danger!"
Feng Lingxiao was shocked. When Prince Zhongyong entered the palace today, he didn't say it so seriously. Perhaps because when he entered the palace, he still believed that Long Chuxia could solve the problem, so he didn't want to say it too seriously to avoid worrying him.
"No wonder he kept looking at the clock when he entered the palace today. It turned out that he wanted to go back before noon. But why didn't she come to Zhenguo Temple after she agreed? According to her temperament, she would never be so unresponsive." Feng Ling Xiao Xiao was worried secretly and looked up at King Qingping, "Has she come to see you in the past two days? Has she analyzed and talked with you about the case?"
King Qingping said: "Since we met yesterday when she came back with the missing Young Master Bu, we have never seen her again about the case. She has never mentioned anything about the case to me. I remember when we broke up in the teahouse, She also said she wanted to go for a walk alone, so we went our separate ways."
"You were drinking tea in the teahouse?" Feng Lingxiao was a little surprised, "While drinking tea, you didn't even say a word about the case? Then what did you talk about?"
King Qingping didn't pay attention to Feng Lingxiao's weird expression. He just recalled it and said, "They were all talking about their own experiences and some daily interesting things. It was quite a pleasant conversation!"
Feng Lingxiao was silent for a moment, "In other words, she disappeared when she left Zhenguo Temple in the early morning. Now that it's not dark yet, she may have gone to investigate the case. Qingping, you take people to find her and try to find her as early as possible." Find her before it gets dark."
King Qingping shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, according to what I know about her, since she has promised to return to Zhenguo Temple at noon, there is no way she has not shown up until now. The only possibility is that something happened to her!"
Feng Lingxiao's eyebrows suddenly knitted and her lips curved slightly. Prince Qingping's words made sense. Since she agreed, knew the importance of the matter, and knew how to let Prince Zhongyong enter the palace to meet the saint, we can know that she actually has some concerns about the political situation. Understandably, in this situation, she would not know what the safety of Prince Zhongyong means, so although Prince Qingping's words "based on my understanding of her" were a bit unpleasant, he ignored it.
After the emperor gave an order, the Yulin Army immediately searched for Long Chuxia's whereabouts. Within an hour, almost all the streets in the capital were searched. Unexpectedly, Long Chuxia was now in the Tang Mansion, suffering from high fever.
Her physical condition is actually very bad. Once she is injured, she is prone to infection. Once infected, it means fever and various complications. (Thank you to Guagua’s distinguished guests, and thank you to Qianyu, Xiangxiang, Baby, and Yanyan for your PK votes.
