"Mother," Mammy had already heard the news from Xiao Yu, "we have many shops on the street, maybe someone will see where Princess Qin is going."
Ye Fuxun heard this: "Does our Ye Mansion have the manpower to investigate?"
"Okay." Grandma nodded.
"Then quickly send someone to investigate and find Princess Qin's whereabouts as soon as possible. Come back and report as soon as there is news."
After arranging the matter, Ye Fuxun went to the front hall to wait. According to the time, Ji Yannuo and the others should be back soon.
Sure enough, not long after arriving at the front hall, Ji Yannuo, King Chu and King Qin hurried back.
As soon as Ji Yannuo saw Ye Fuxun, he hurriedly took her aside and took a closer look at her. He was relieved to see that she was intact.
"I'm afraid that you are worried about Princess Qin going out to look for her." He couldn't help but tell Ye Fuxun about his intention to come back all the way.
It is naturally dangerous for Princess Qin to be kidnapped for no reason, but if Ah Xun runs out to save people without waiting for him, she may be more likely to fall into the trap of the thieves.
Ji Yannuo came back anxiously, but now he finally felt at ease.
Ye Fuxun raised his head: "In addition to being good at poisoning and escaping, I don't know kung fu. Even if I find Princess Qin, I won't be able to save people. I might just cause trouble for you, so I just wait in the house."
She arranged everything she could, including asking people from Ye Mansion to search for traces as soon as possible, including notifying Ji Yannuo as soon as possible.
When he heard it, his eyes were filled with admiration.
He glanced at the King of Qin and the King of Chu, took Ye Fulun's hand and said, "I have also sent people to look for him. You can just wait in the house with peace of mind. The three of us brothers will go out to look for him."
"Okay." Ye Fuxun nodded and returned to the inner courtyard to wait.
Xiaoyu supported her while walking and said in confusion: "Ms., this slave feels very strange."
"how?"
"That Shui'er was a gift from King Rui to King Qin. She deliberately tricked Princess Qin into kidnapping her. Isn't it obvious that this was instigated by King Rui?"
Xiaoyu tilted her head, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
Ye Fuxun slowly shook his head: "Xiaoyu, do you remember what Ah Si and Yi Ren said just now?"
"They said that Shui'er entered Prince Rui's Mansion later and was not familiar with them." Xiao Yu thought for a while, but she remembered this clearly.
"That's right." Ye Fuxun nodded, but he had a deeper suspicion in his heart.
"Are the other two girls under custody?"
Shui'er designed Princess Qin to disappear. Although Ah Si and Yi Ren claimed to be unfamiliar with her, they were both from Prince Rui's Mansion, so of course they couldn't avoid the relationship.
"My slave has sent people to lock them two in the firewood shed." Xiao Yu nodded, just in time to prevent the two of them from having to rest in the Ye Mansion.
Eunuch Xu followed His Highness out of the house, but Miss Asi bothered her and Qiaoer.
I have been thinking about going to the empress' house all day long. What are I thinking about? Ye Fuxun nodded, and suddenly heard a grunt.
She was suddenly embarrassed: "I'm hungry."
"The empress has not had lunch because of Princess Qin's affairs," Qiao'er said aside, "This is the protest of the little Highness in her belly."
Xiaoyu was now anxious: "How about we go to the dining hall to have a meal first, my dear?"
"Let's go have a meal first." Ji Yannuo and the others may not be able to come back in a short time. They will have the strength to wait until they are full.
After lunch, the nanny from the Ye Mansion came over to deliver the news: "Your Majesty, our shop assistant has seen where Princess Qin is going."
"A shop assistant on Enping Street saw Princess Qin getting off the carriage and entering Alley Thirteen." Mammy reported.
"Where is Alley Thirteen?" Ye Fuxun asked.
Grandma explained: "Alley Thirteen is a private residence."
"How many people have you informed about this matter?"
Mammy nodded and said: "According to your Majesty's instructions, we have notified the three masters as soon as possible."
Ji Yannuo, King Chu and King Qin received the news and arrived at the entrance of Thirteenth Alley almost at the same time.
"To avoid alerting the enemy," King Chu stopped King Qin and said, "We should not search the houses in a big way. Let's search carefully along the alleys first."
King Qin nodded and took the lead into Alley Thirteen.
The three of them searched carefully, and suddenly they saw King Qin stop.
He walked to the corner, bent down and picked up a pearl hairpin: "This is the princess's hairpin."
Since leaving home, the princess no longer wears all kinds of heavy red hairpins and rings every day as before, but has changed to a simple style.
"Then Princess Qin must have passed through here, and she was most likely kidnapped into a nearby house." King Chu thought while stroking his chin.
"Keep looking." Ji Yannuo nodded and suggested.
The three of them walked forward and looked around very carefully.
After walking through about a dozen houses, King Qin suddenly stopped again.
"What?" King Chu stepped forward and saw King Qin squatting down in front of a house and picking up the broken jade ring beside the door frame. "This also belongs to Princess Qin?"
King Qin nodded, picked up the ring and took a step back: "It should be right here."
King Chu's pupils shrank: "Could it be that Princess Qin grabbed the door frame when she was struggling and dropped the jade ring on her finger to the ground..."
"It's possible."
The three brothers looked at each other, and King Chu stepped forward and kicked the door open.
Three or four men in black suddenly rushed out and started fighting in a scuffle.
Ji Yannuo blew a whistle, and soon a secret guard came to challenge him.
King Qin nodded to the two of them and quickly ran to the inner room.
Going up the corridor, he saw Qiuyue lying on one side. His heart suddenly tightened and he kicked open the closed door.
The light in the room was dim, but at a glance you could see Princess Qin being tied up and sitting on a chair. Her eyes were filled with tears when she saw Prince Qin.
Princess Qin screamed "woo woo".
King Qin stepped forward and took off the rag from her mouth, and then untied the rope from her body.
"My lord, it was Shui'er who tricked me into coming here on the pretext that you were kidnapped. Then they knocked Qiu Yue unconscious at the door and dragged me in..."
"Shui'er and the thieves are together..."
"It's my fault. I was impulsive. I shouldn't have followed Shui'er without thinking as soon as I heard that you were kidnapped. She had ulterior motives, and I didn't even notice it!"
Princess Qin kept talking, tears streaming down her face. She really regretted it.
It would have been nice if Qiuyue had suggested that she consult with Concubine Ye first before going out.
It was all her fault that she was impulsive and thought she could save people with some effort, but instead she fell into the trap of the thief.
"My lord, are you okay? Shui'er said it was a lie that you were kidnapped, right?"
King Qin frowned, shook his head and said: "I am fine and have not been kidnapped. Let's leave here first."
"But, I made a mistake..." Princess Qin blamed herself.
"It's not your fault that you are just worried and confused." King Qin comforted him and stretched out his hand to pull up Princess Qin, "Let's get out of here as soon as possible."
