The Queen Mother was not only happy, but also worried.
"this......"
She had not checked Concubine Li Shu's pulse and could not see her pulse, but since so many imperial doctors said she was fine, she must be healthy.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Concubine Li Shu will definitely give birth to the little prince safely."
The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "Ning'er, I know you are comforting the Ai family."
Chu Yunning's eyelids twitched, feeling that something was strange.
"No matter what others say, the Aijia always believe that Beibei is the biological grandson of the Aijia. From the first moment the Aijia saw Beibei,
Just know it.”
Chu Yunning was confused by the Queen Mother's words.
After parting, Chu Yunning looked back at the magnificent palace behind him, and suddenly stopped as if he thought of something.
Emperor Mingwen was very impatient with the Queen's attitude, as if she was scolding her for not getting things done.
Could it be that the Queen's talk to her today was under the instruction of Emperor Mingwen?
No, that shouldn't be the case. Chu Yunning's palms were suddenly sweaty.
If you think about it carefully, it is such a coincidence that Concubine He Lishu became pregnant at this juncture.
Chu Yunning only felt that there was a fog lingering in front of her eyes. She was being dragged into it. If she was not careful, she might make a wrong step.
Fall into the abyss.
She couldn't wait to leave the palace. Prince Xiao's carriage was waiting for her. Her first words were: "Beibei is missing."
"What did you say?" Chu Yunning suddenly lost her voice, and felt her eyes going black.
"Don't talk too much now. I'll talk to you in detail when you get in the carriage."
Without any time to think about it, Chu Yunning got on the carriage and held on to the frame of the carriage with one hand, trying his best to steady his body.
"What on earth is going on?"
"Bixiu went to Prince Xiao's Mansion an hour ago, and I learned that Beibei was missing. Don't worry yet..."
"How can I not worry if the child is lost?" Chu Yunning roared.
Why is she not in a hurry? Beibei is usually very well-behaved. He just stays in the house practicing Chinese calligraphy or studying herbal medicine, and will never go out and run around.
Moreover, the Chu family has ten secret guards. Who can kidnap Beibei from the Chu family?
When she returned to Chu's house, she anxiously searched around the yard.
"Miss, I have searched inside and outside, but Beibei is not here."
Beibei doesn't have the habit of hiding and trying to scare people, so this possibility is ruled out.
Moreover, there is an unfinished copybook on the table, and various signs indicate that Beibei was kidnapped.
"Have you inquired about the Chu Mansion next door?"
Bixiu shook her head: "I have checked, and Beibei has not gone."
Beibei rarely goes to the Chu Mansion, and the elders of the Chu Mansion don't want to see him, so he doesn't like the Chu Mansion. If he misses Mrs. Chu, he will fly a kite, and Mrs. Chu will come when she sees him.
Chu Yunning glanced at Prince Xiao and hesitated for a moment.
"Tianyi!"
After shouting for a long time, Tianyi fell down with his body covered in scars.
Tianyi knelt down and said: "This subordinate is incompetent and failed to see clearly the identity of the person coming."
"So, someone really kidnapped Beibei?"
"yes!"
Chu Yunning stood up and said, "Trash, you can't even look at someone!"
"Master, forgive me, this subordinate deserves to die!" Tianyi clutched her heart.
Seeing the purple-black blood on his heart, it looked like he was poisoned.
Due to the presence of King Xiao, Chu Yunning waved her hand and asked Bixiu to support Tianyi and retreat.
"The king has sent people to block the city gate and will not let anyone suspicious."
"If you want to run away, there are plenty of ways." Chu Yunning didn't quite believe in these people's ability to handle cases.
"Thank you, Prince Xiao, for worrying about Beibei. I have my own sense of discretion in this matter."
"Chu Yunning, after all this, you still want to shut me out?" Prince Xiao was angry and helpless.
Chu Yunning said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to search for Beibei with great fanfare. The more Beibei is lost, the more dangerous it is. There are only a few people who can try their best to attack Beibei. Your Majesty has many people, I
There is a way."
King Xiao's eyelids twitched, feeling uneasy.
An hour later, dozens of children were missing in the capital. These children were the darlings of wealthy families, and they were all between the ages of four and eight.
Suddenly the atmosphere in the city became strange.
Dozens of civil and military officials went to court to request the emperor to conduct a thorough investigation, and hundreds of officers and soldiers were sent to search all the streets. They all threatened that if they found this person, they would cut him into pieces!
Emperor Mingwen ordered the city gates to be sealed for three days, and anyone with any suspicions must cooperate unconditionally. Within an hour, many children were recovered one after another inland, and all of them were safe and sound. The family members were angry because they had been frightened for nothing.
The water in the capital has been completely muddled. It is not known which family has lost its child and which family has not found the child. They are only determined to find the culprit!
Chu family
Chu Yunning checked Tianyi's injury and found that the wound was caused by a hidden weapon, and poison was smeared on the hidden weapon.
The poison can penetrate deep into the bone marrow and kill people in just a moment. Fortunately, Tianyi has an antidote on his body, which temporarily relieves the poison.
The remaining few people have lost their lives because they did not take the antidote in time.
There were only two people left among the nine, and Tian Er happened to be pointed out by her to go do some errands and escaped disaster.
"Don't you have anything to say?" Chu Yunning asked.
Tianyi said: "My subordinates have dealt with royal guards before, and their tactics are very similar."
"Royal?" Chu Yunning fell into deep thought. Was it Xia who agreed, or Emperor Mingwen and the Queen? It shouldn't be. Beibei's existence did not affect Emperor Mingwen. As for Xia's agreement, she could not protect herself.
As for the Queen, there is no need. Once this matter is discovered, the Queen will be criticized and she will not even be able to keep her position in the palace.
She was in the palace when something happened to Beibei. There is no way the queen would destroy her without getting it.
Beibei.
She doesn't dare and won't take risks.
Chu Yunning came to her senses and asked again: "How many people were there, and did they leave anything behind?"
Tianyi shook his head.
Chu Yunning suppressed her panic and treated Tianyi's wounds first, making sure that his life was not in danger before leaving.
All kinds of people kept flashing in her mind along the way.
All were rejected.
Chu Yunning stayed up all night, sitting quietly in front of the lamp, watching the candlelight gradually extinguish and the sky turn white.
"Miss, please eat something. You haven't eaten or drank all day and night." Bixiu came with a bowl of noodle soup.
Chu Yunning took a look. She really had no appetite. All she could think of were the people she thought were suspicious.
"I'm going for a walk, don't follow me!"
Chu Yunning felt really depressed staying in the house, so she went out for a walk and breathed fresh air.
This is the first time in five years that I have been separated from Beibei for so long, and I feel so empty, as if someone has dug out my heart.
"Miss Chu?"
There were shouts on the street. Chu Yunning turned around and saw that it was Mo Shizi.
Mo Shizi walked towards her step by step and said with concern: "I have heard about Beibei, and I have also sent people to look for it."
"Thank you, Master Mo."
Mo Shizi added: "I know there is a mysterious organization in Jianghu. As long as you can afford the money, you can thoroughly investigate everything, even the secrets of the palace."
Chu Yunning's eyes moved slightly, and their eyes became colored.
"Every mansion has secret guards, but there is no one in the world who can kidnap Beibei in front of Tianshi without anyone noticing."
"Where is that mysterious organization?"
"In Nanshan."
Chu Yunning hesitated for a moment, then looked up and suddenly saw the cold and distant eyes of Prince Xiao.
"Chu Yunning, you still have the heart to fall in love here after the child is lost, I am really disappointed!"
"Prince Xiao misunderstood. Miss Chu and I just met by chance." Mo Shizi explained.
Prince Xiao snorted coldly, not believing this statement at all. He had just seen Chu Yunning smiling brightly at Prince Mo.
"Prince Xiao..."
"Mo Shizi, there is no need to explain. It is useless to say more."
She was too lazy to tangle with Prince Xiao, so she went to Beibei. She didn't expect Prince Xiao at all, she just asked him not to cause trouble.
"Haha, are you too lazy to hide it now?"
King Xiao was so angry that he spent the whole night looking for someone without sleeping. He offended many people and was still not understood in the end.
"Chu Yunning, you are cruel enough!" Prince Xiao walked away with a puff of his sleeves.
"Miss Chu, I'm sorry." Mo Shizi apologized.
Chu Yunning raised her eyelids and said nonchalantly: "No need to apologize, Shizi Mo. I just want to know how to find the mysterious Nanshan organization that Shizi Mo mentioned?"
She doesn't trust anyone now, she only trusts herself.
"It just so happens that I have nothing to do and can go with you." Mo Shizi pointed to the carriage.
Chu Yunning shook her head and refused: "No need, you just need to tell me where it is and how to find it."
She didn't want to get entangled with Prince Xiao, and she also didn't want to get involved with Prince Mo.
