Chu Li clasped his fists and smiled: "Two princesses, are you so early?"
Song Liuying nodded slightly as a greeting.
Xue Ningyu said: "It's already late, but the chief manager, didn't you sleep last night?"
Chu Li shook his head and said, "I went back to sleep when it was almost dawn."
"Alas..." Xue Ningyu sighed: "I've been on guard all night, it's really difficult for you. It'll be fine today. I've asked Commander Zheng to come over. He will allocate the manpower well, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."
Chu Li smiled and said: "Where is Commander Zheng?"
"Come right over." Xue Ningyu said.
Just as he was talking, Zheng Lide strode in, clasped his fists and said loudly: "I've seen Princess Xiao, Princess Song, Princess Xue, and the Chief Manager!"
Chu Li waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite.
Zheng Lide was in high spirits and was obviously in a good mood.
Xue Ningyu said: "Commander Zheng, you came just in time. Have the guards come here?"
"Princess Xue." Zheng Lide said with a smile: "The guards will be here soon. There are six masters of Tianwaitian. Even if the assassin comes again, he will never disturb the three princesses chatting!"
"Six..." Xue Ningyu nodded lightly: "That's not too few. Where is the prince?"
"The eight on the prince's side," Zheng Lide said.
Xue Ningyu smiled and said: "Yes, I can finally feel at ease. If the six masters from Tianwaitian can't guard against it, then there is really nothing we can do."
Zheng Lide chuckled and said: "Don't worry, Princess Xue, you will definitely be on guard this time!"
"Hmph, I don't believe what you say now!" Xue Ningyu said angrily: "I said I could prevent it the last two times, but it turned out that if I really could prevent it, the chief manager wouldn't do it himself!"
Zheng Lide suddenly felt a little embarrassed, laughed twice, and lowered his head.
Song Liuying said: "Okay, Commander Zheng, go ahead. Our safety depends entirely on you. Don't be careless."
"Yes, don't worry, three princesses." Zheng Lide hurriedly said goodbye and left as if he had been granted amnesty.
Song Liuying glared at Xue Ningyu angrily: "Why are you embarrassing him? It's not like he is willing to let the assassin go."
"Incompetent people!" Xue Ningyu snorted angrily: "If we go to the battlefield like this, how many innocent soldiers will die from exhaustion!"
"It's better to put away the leadership thing!" Song Liuying said calmly.
Xue Ningyu said with a smile: "Sister Song, blind kindness is not enough. If people are not afraid, they will not work hard. Look at Lao Zheng, he is an old man with a face as thick as a city wall. Even if you scold him, he will never do it."
If you don’t take it seriously, you won’t take anything seriously!”
"I think he cares about it." Song Liuying said calmly: "It's just that he is unable to do what he can. After all, the mansion is short of manpower."
"Then why didn't you come up with this method earlier?" Xue Ningyu snorted: "I don't dare to go against the prince's wishes. I don't take any responsibility at all, and I still have the chief manager to propose it. It's really useless!"
"It's not that you don't know the prince's temper. Even if we mention it, the prince will fall out." Song Liuying shook his head and said: "Old Zheng, he doesn't dare to mention it, it's nothing."
Chu Li smiled and said: "The prince has fallen out with me, but because of the princess's face, he didn't say anything harsh. Being left out is inevitable."
"We will try to persuade the prince, and everything will be fine after a while." Song Liuying said with a smile: "The prince is kind and forgiving, and he can understand the great manager's painstaking efforts."
Chu Li clasped his fists: "Thank you two princesses."
Xue Ningyu smiled sweetly: "Sister Song, what are we asking for? As long as Sister Xiao is here, the chief manager will have nothing to do!"
Xiao Shi chuckled: "Sister Xue is wrong. My words are not as effective as the two sisters. I won't be able to see the prince all day long."
"Alas..., the prince is also very worried right now," Song Liuying sighed softly: "It was originally a happy day, but God has always been uneasy. There is a group of human traffickers running rampant, and many officials' children have been abducted, and they have not been seen yet.
To the shadow.”
"This has nothing to do with the prince, right?" Xiao Shi frowned.
Song Liuying said: "Your Majesty serves in the palace of Shendu. Although he is only a semi-official, he still has responsibilities!"
"Human trafficker?" Xiao Shi's face turned pale: "You are really inhumane and you deserve death!"
"These guys also know that they deserve to die, so they act extremely cautiously and elusively. So far, there are no clues." Song Liuying said lightly: "The ministers are complaining and the case cannot be solved anymore. I think the prince's position in the palace of Shendu is
I can’t keep it!”
According to the rules of the Daji Dynasty, even the prince cannot be aloof and ignore the affairs of the court, and the court does not raise waste.
A prince cannot suddenly reach a high position. He has to be promoted like a normal official. Unless he inherits the throne and rises to the top in one step, he can only rise up bit by bit. The title is given by the royal family, but the official position is earned by oneself.
King An is smart and capable, and has been promoted to the fourth rank at a young age. He serves in the palace of Shendu and is responsible for the security of Shendu.
However, King Jing, who had the highest claim to the throne, was younger than King An, but he was already a second-rank official and a capable minister in governing the world, far surpassing King An.
At this moment, suddenly a maid outside reported: "Princess, the eldest son has sent someone over."
Song Liuying frowned at his maid and asked, "What's the matter?"
The maid whispered: "It seems that the eldest young master's young master has gone missing."
Song Liuying's face changed drastically and he stood up suddenly: "Lost?!"
The maid nodded cautiously and reported softly: "Let him come over?"
"Hurry up and come in!" Song Liuying said hurriedly.
Xue Ningyu and Xiao Shi's faces became serious. Something happened to Song Liuying's family!
A middle-aged man came in with a sullen face, walked calmly and calmly, clasped his fists and saluted: "I've seen you, Miss!"
Song Liuying took a deep breath: "Uncle Sun, what's going on?"
The middle-aged man sighed: "The young master went shopping last night and brought two guards and two maids with him, but they were snatched away!"
Song Liuying hummed: "Where are the two guards?"
"They are fine and locked up. It is said that they were surrounded by four masters who tapped their mute acupoints and then left with the young master in their arms." The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "By the time they got rid of the acupuncture points, they would have disappeared!
"
"Didn't I send a message back? You're not allowed to go out at this time?!" Song Liuying's slender eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were filled with evil.
The middle-aged man said calmly: "The guards failed to hold the young master down. The young lady also knows the young master's temper. No one can control him except the eldest young master."
Song Liuying moved his steps lightly, pacing back and forth: "When did it happen?"
"Last night." The middle-aged man said, "Because it was late at night, I didn't bother the lady."
"What time is it? Don't bother me!" Song Liuying said bitterly: "Does the prince know?"
"The prince has been notified," the middle-aged man said.
Xue Ningyu hummed: "If the prince had a way, he would have caught them long ago!"
Song Liuying turned to glare at her.
Xue Ningyu showed a look of regret: "Sister Song, God will bless us now. It must be those guys again!"
Song Liuying said anxiously: "You don't have to say it!"
Xue Ningyu did not contradict her, shook her head and sighed, looking at Leng Qiu who was sitting elsewhere.
She could understand Song Liuying's anxiety. If Qiu'er was also abducted, she would really go crazy.
