Murong Yingluo heard that a maid came to report that the eldest lady had invited her to visit the nunnery. The eldest lady treated her very well. Since it was the eldest lady who invited her, she must go.
After a while, the group of people arrived at the nunnery. The maid knocked on the door lightly and called out: "Madam, Princess Zheng has arrived."
The old nanny walked out of the door, and Yingluo recognized her, "Mommy, how are you doing lately?"
The nanny was very kind and said, "Madam is waiting in the room."
The nunnery was full of female relatives, and the eldest lady had stipulated that men were not allowed to enter. On weekdays, except for Gongyichu, even Murong Xuan rarely went there.
Yingluo didn't want to break the rules, so she stayed outside the nunnery and waited. They went in and sat for a while before returning.
Zhen'er accompanied Yingluo to see the eldest lady, who was waiting in the bedroom.
The furnishings in the room are very simple. The lady is dressed in plain clothes and sitting on a futon with a rosary in her hand. Even when she is resting, she does not forget to recite the Buddha's name.
Seeing Yingluo walking in, she hurriedly stood up, looked at her with loving eyes, and saw Yingluo's unfocused eyes. The eldest lady grabbed Yingluo's slender wrist with her warm hands, her eyes were red and full of pity.
"My poor child, why do your eyes look like this?"
"Don't worry, ma'am. Luo'er has taken the antidote and will regain consciousness soon."
"That's good. It's really hard on you. How does Prince Zheng treat you well?"
Compared to her own mother, the aunt treats her more like her mother, "Auntie, don't worry, Prince Zheng treats Luo'er very well."
"That makes me feel relieved."
Zhen'er helped Yingluo find a seat and sat down. The eldest lady ordered someone to bring her some fragrant tea. She was very worried that she would get burned, "Be careful, it's very hot!"
Nowadays, these little things are not difficult for Yu Yingluo. Feeling the heat in the tea cup, she put the cup to her lips and drank. She immediately put down the tea cup, but she felt extremely dizzy and realized that something was wrong.
She had never been on guard against Madam, and she had no idea that someone had tampered with the tea.
Outside the nunnery, Yang Bupo had been waiting outside the door for a long time. The sun was shining brightly and it was about noon. The princess was not seen walking out of the nunnery. The princess only said to go in and sit down and then came out.
Even if this lady follows the monk's practice and does not eat after noon, she must have lunch at noon, which is not right.
Yang Bupo ignored the rules of the General's Mansion and went directly over the wall into the nunnery. He searched from room to room and saw the nanny and the maid lying on the ground at the door of the inner hall.
Realizing that something was wrong, he rushed in and saw Zhen'er and the first lady in the room with their acupoints sealed. Princess Zheng was nowhere to be found.
Yang Bupo did not panic and opened the acupuncture points on Zhen'er's body with his skills, "Zhen'er, where did the princess go?"
Zhen'er shook her head blankly, not sure what happened? "Just now a black shadow flashed past, and I don't know anything anymore. Miss, where did the miss go?"
"The princess must have been kidnapped."
Zhen'er hurriedly held Bupo's hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Guard Yang, please save Miss."
Seeing her appearance, Bupo finally agreed to hold his hand. However, in this situation, he had a heavy responsibility to lose the princess. However, he did not panic. He was able to accurately know the princess's movements and snatched the princess away from the general's palace.
, must be very familiar with the General's Mansion.
There are secret guards guarding the outside. It is not easy to transport people out in broad daylight without anyone noticing.
"Zhen'er, don't panic! You quickly go to the study to look for General Murong. The general's mansion will be surrounded and searched carefully. I will go back to the mansion to find the prince first and seal the city gate. I hope no one has been transported out of the city."
Zhen'er's eyes were red and she looked at the eldest lady and the others who were still sleeping. She didn't know how to relieve her acupuncture points, so she hurriedly called out: "What should they do?"
Bupo heard Zhen'er's soft call, "This is a nunnery, it's better not to disturb the tranquility here." Bupo rushed out directly.
Zhen'er suddenly felt that Yang Bupo was not that hateful, so she gently opened the door of the nunnery. She was very familiar with the route to the General's Mansion, and ran directly to the study of the General's Mansion.
On the other side, Si Wushang returned to Prince Zheng's Mansion from the palace and sat in the study, feeling inexplicably uneasy. The envoy from Gu Wuguo who had just been in the palace suggested that Chen Han follow Gu Wuguo's example and open the border.
At that time, it will not only be salt and jewelry, but also tobacco, soil and even war. Cheng Han does not want to attract wolves into the house. Although it hinders prosperity, he will also keep out those invasions under the guise of trade.
Si Wushang was in the study dealing with the papers sent from the palace. Cheng Feng said that there were strangers near Prince Zheng's Mansion, most likely from the ancient Wu Kingdom.
He was not worried about state affairs, he was worried about Yingluo's body. It was past noon and no one had returned home yet. He had secretly placed guards and there were Bupo and Zhen'er beside him to take care of her. It should be okay.
Si Wushang was handling official duties. Hearing the urgent footsteps outside the door, he realized that something must have happened. He hurriedly put down the book in his hand, and Bupo had already pushed the door open and entered.
"Your Majesty, Princess Zheng was taken away."
Si Wushang rushed over and grabbed the unbroken collar tightly and said, "If you weren't following me, why would you let someone snatch you away if you had secret guards?"
"Your Majesty, secret guards are guarding outside the general's residence. The princess was kidnapped in the nunnery of the general's residence."
"There are secret guards guarding outside the general's residence. It's not easy to transport them out of the general's residence. Can we order people to search everywhere?"
"General Murong should already know about this and will definitely order people to search. Your Majesty ordered the city gate to be guarded."
Cheng Feng also followed Bupo in and learned that the princess had been taken away. "My lord, getting angry now will not help. The only thing is to find a way to find the princess."
Si Wushang calmed down a little and thought about Cheng Feng's words, and roughly guessed in his mind, "Bu Po, hurry up and order someone to prepare a sedan, I am going to enter the palace!"
"yes!"
Seeing Yang Bupo leaving, he said to Cheng Feng: "Send the order and ask Xu Hu to lead troops to guard the four gates and conduct strict investigations. Don't let anyone take the princess out of the city. Just say that spies from other countries have sneaked into the capital and want to assassinate the ancient Wu envoy."
In Cheng Feng's heart, the prince is not such an arbitrary person, "Your Majesty, it seems inappropriate to do this! The prince has no evidence to prove that the arrest of the princess was done by people from the ancient Wu Kingdom, maybe the Queen Mother. You must discuss it with the emperor.
Only then can you issue such an order, otherwise the prince will have exceeded his rights."
"The Queen Mother will not choose this moment to take action to damage Cheng Han's face. There is nothing wrong with this matter. In this way, we can surround the Gu Wu Embassy openly and give them a shot. If they do it, they will definitely take action."
Cheng Feng went to notify Xu Hu and led people to block the city gate. Si Wushang entered the palace directly. In order to avoid arguments, he decided to kill first and then report.
He would not touch the token of the imperial army easily. He wanted to mobilize troops to the emperor and lead the troops to trap them in the embassy and monitor them in the name of protecting the safety of the ancient messengers.
The Queen Mother's people did not have this ability to get people out of the General's Mansion without anyone noticing. This matter is definitely related to Gu Wuguo.
If they dare to harm Yingluo rashly, there will be no return for them.
