The queen looked slightly nervous and asked quickly: "What happened?"
It can’t be...
Although I had already been mentally prepared for this, how could it happen so quickly? It was clear that I still drank half of the medicine when I drank it this morning.
"It's said that the person is missing..." Grandma Jiang said.
"Gone?!"
The queen couldn't help being surprised.
When Xu Mingyi heard this statement, his anxious heart slowly relaxed a lot.
At least it wasn't a major physical change...
When something like this happened, there was no reason to stand by, so the group hurriedly entered the eldest princess's mansion again.
In Princess Jingrong's residence, Princess Yufeng was pacing back and forth in the hall anxiously.
"Queen, Zhao Zhao——"
Seeing that she was about to salute, the queen stepped forward to support the person, "Don't be formal at this time - what happened? How could the person suddenly disappear?"
"I don't know what happened..."
Princess Yufeng's expression showed panic and uneasiness visible to the naked eye: "After I drank the medicine, I was guarding my mother in the room, but for some reason, I fell asleep on the couch, and slept very deeply.
!Never heard anything!"
Aoi tried her best not to show a guilty expression.
Why did the princess sleep so deeply? It was because of the prescription...
But why did the eldest princess disappear?
"I was woken up by my grandma!" Princess Yufeng's eyes were so anxious that her eyes were red: "As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that the bed was empty!"
"The servants and others were waiting outside and heard some faint noises, but they only thought it was the princess's voice, so they didn't come in in time to check..." The eldest maid kneeling on the ground blamed herself.
After a whole month, they have already become accustomed to the princess guarding the eldest princess alone. They thought that they would stay at home and be there at any time. How could they have imagined that such an accident would happen.
"The window at the back is wide open...my mother must have been kidnapped!"
Princess Yufeng was anxious and angry: "My mother is like this, but they still won't let her go!"
His Majesty said that everything that should be investigated has been investigated, and the small shop related to Lanzhu has also been sealed... But why did this happen again today?
Who wants to harm her mother?
"Jiaojiao, don't be anxious first."
Xu Mingyi held one of her hands and said, "Have you ever thought that maybe Her Royal Highness the Princess woke up and went out on her own?"
Princess Yufeng was stunned when she heard this.
Xuanji shook his head and said: "This is impossible... If mother really woke up, how could she not say a word, let alone climb out of the window!"
Besides——
She glanced at the direction of the inner room and said: "Mother has neither clothes nor shoes. She must have been kidnapped..."
Xu Mingyi frowned slightly for a moment.
It's really weird...
But based on these alone, nothing can be determined.
"How long has it been since the person disappeared? Have you found any other clues?" the queen asked from the side.
Intuitively, she didn't think this could be the fault of the emperor.
It's not that he has any unrealistic illusions about his non-existent humanity, but because of the current situation, there is no need for him to take action - even if he does, it will never be done in the daytime.
Use such means that will cause trouble in the future.
"It should only happen within half an hour." Princess Yufeng shook her head and said: "People are already looking for it, but nothing has been found yet..."
"If they are really taken captive, they may no longer be in the palace at this time." The queen said sternly: "I am afraid that these palace soldiers alone are not enough to protect the courtyard. Now we need to report this matter to Your Majesty as soon as possible.
Yamen all over the city are helping to find people——"
It would be great if the security guards could be dispatched.
Princess Yufeng nodded immediately: "Okay... I will let people enter the palace right now."
When Emperor Qingming heard about this, he immediately left the palace in person and rushed to the eldest princess's mansion.
Seeing the emperor coming in person, with anxious eyes, Xu Mingyi couldn't help but make assumptions.
Is the emperor so nervous about the disappearance of the eldest princess really just for the sake of appearance, or is there... something in the eldest princess that deserves his excessive taboo and concern?
Ever since she realized that the person who wanted to kill the eldest princess was the Emperor, this suspicion had taken root in her heart.
"Have you searched carefully everywhere in the mansion?" Emperor Qingming asked, looking at his niece.
"The search is almost over... There are still some remote yards, and we are currently asking people to search them."
In the eldest princess's mansion, she and her mother are the only two masters. The bosses occupy two other courtyards. In addition, most of the courtyards are empty and uninhabited for a long time. Some of them are locked. They are all needed now.
Search them one by one.
Emperor Qingming nodded, feeling anxious that the situation was out of control.
How could Jingrong suddenly disappear?
He is clearly a comatose person, what is the strangeness behind this?
Could it be that King Yan was the spy who stayed in Beijing?!
Just as he was making frequent guesses, a maid suddenly came quickly. She rushed into the hall panting and saluted, and then said hurriedly: "...find your highness!"
Princess Yufeng's expression perked up and she immediately asked: "Where is it!"
She knew that the guards at their house were quite tight now. If the other party kidnapped her unconscious mother, it would not be so easy to escape!
"In Xiyuan!" the maid said with a complicated expression: "But His Highness is on the roof... unwilling to come down! The servants did not dare to disturb them, so they hurriedly came to inform the princess."
"On the roof..."
Princess Yufeng was a little stunned for a moment, then stared at the maid: "You mean... mother is awake?!"
The maid nodded hurriedly.
I'm indeed awake, but something doesn't seem right...
"Take me over and have a look!" Emperor Qingming suppressed his suspicions and ordered seriously.
The maid immediately responded.
The queen and Emperor Qingming came out of the front hall together.
Princess Yufeng and Xu Mingyi quickly followed.
The Xiyuan of the eldest princess's mansion has been abandoned for many years. Because Jia Junzhi had lived there before, it was especially disliked by everyone in the mansion. The servants and women would spit when they happened to pass by. Therefore, it has not been used for other purposes over the years, that's all.
It is empty and no one visits to clean it on weekdays.
The courtyard is overgrown with dead grass and covered with snow.
At this time, there was a row of maids and guards guarding the front porch.
"Your Highness, please be careful and don't move any further... Could you please have someone rescue you?"
The steward in the eldest princess's courtyard looked in the direction of the roof and discussed nervously.
"I don't want to go down!...Ye Mo, why do you call me your highness?"
On the roof, Princess Jingrong, with her hair disheveled and bare feet, was full of doubts and uneasiness: "Who are they? Whose mansion is this? I want to see my father...where is my father?"
"Your Highness..."
Why does Your Highness keep talking nonsense?
The stewardess sighed anxiously.
Seeing Emperor Qingming and his entourage arriving, Grandma quickly saluted.
"Mother!"
Seeing that the person on the roof was indeed her mother, Princess Yufeng breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart that had been hanging for a whole month finally dropped.
Great...my mother is fine!
But she soon discovered that her mother was not really okay.
