Chapter 295 A big disaster has come
As soon as there was any movement from Emperor Jingde's side, Concubine Jiang got the news.
The person who came to deliver the message was a palace maid. She was of ordinary appearance, the kind that you would not be able to find in a crowd. She was a newly promoted tea-serving palace maid, filling Lu Shiyuan's position.
However, no one knew that she was actually a spy planted by Concubine Jiang next to Emperor Jingde.
"Your Majesty, a team of imperial guards has received an imperial decree and set off south. The Emperor is very angry and keeps muttering that everyone is lying to him." The palace maid reported everything in detail.
"Your Majesty, will the Emperor do anything bad to General Pei's family?" The nanny beside her was a little anxious.
Princess Jiang waved her hand, asking them all to calm down.
"Tell me what happened before this."
After listening to the palace maid, Concubine Jiang said:
"It seems that we are not the only ones who have spies around the emperor. Go back and keep a close eye on that beautiful lady."
"Yes."
As soon as the palace maid left, Concubine Jiang called her subordinates.
"Hurry up and disguise yourself and leave the palace. Make sure you get to Lin'an Prefecture before the imperial guards do. Tell Su Li and the others to be ready."
Since taking over the affairs of the harem, Concubine Jiang has not been idle.
Now her position in the harem was as solid as a rock, and all the officials in charge were replaced by her own people. News came quickly, and the people working under her were reliable.
Just after finishing this matter, the palace maid came in hurriedly:
"My dear, my dear, something bad has happened."
"what happened again?"
Ever since I took charge of the harem, there has been no moment of peace every day.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li heard that Prince Jing was still alive and colluding with the Beimang people in rebellion in the northern border, so she angrily led a group of people to the cold palace."
"Is anyone dead?"
"Huh? Not yet..."
"Then leave it alone."
Concubine Jiang rubbed her brows. "This anger has been pent up in Concubine Li's heart for more than ten years. It won't dissipate in a day or two. She's been careful about the severity of her actions."
Concubine Wen had committed many evil deeds, and it was her own fault that she had suffered such an end. Concubine Jiang had always turned a blind eye to Concubine Li's torture of Concubine Wen.
In the cold palace, Concubine Wen was no longer the elegant and high-ranking Concubine she once was. Now she was like an old dog, lying on the ground, covered in blood, gasping for breath.
Concubine Li threw away the whip covered in blood and flesh, panting and saying:
"Bitch, your good son ran away to live a good life, but left you here to suffer. He didn't want his wife, children, and even his own mother. He didn't want them all."
"Hahahaha, you prevented me from giving birth to a son, but what if you did? Right now, your life and death still have the final say in my opinion!"
"He's not dead. He will definitely come back and take me away. He definitely will!"
Concubine Wen was lying on the mud, with the mud and blood in her hair mixed together and inseparable, and the clothes on her body were worse than those of the beggars on the street.
"Really? Then you must live well and wait for him to come and take you to enjoy happiness!"
Concubine Li snorted coldly.
"I've had a good stretch today and I feel refreshed. Let's go. It's been a while since I last visited the Emperor. I'm in a good mood today, so let's go and keep him company."
She would come to the cold palace to "relax" every now and then, and she was in a particularly good mood today.
The emperor could no longer bring her much happiness and satisfaction, but considering that he was the emperor who could bring her supreme respect and status, Concubine Li still fulfilled her duty and took time out every month to accompany him several times.
She walked into the imperial study in a graceful manner and heard loud crying inside.
Princess Heng knelt on the ground with her plump body, crying:
"Father, please make a decision for your daughter-in-law! Xun'er and Shou'er went out to play the other day and never came back. We've searched everywhere in and out of the city, but there's no trace of them. Father, if anything happens to them, your daughter-in-law will die!"
On the side, Prince Heng was leaning on a cane with a sad face.
"Okay, it might not be as serious as you say. Those two brats might have just run away for fun. I heard that bastard from the Xie family is also missing..."
"Fuck your motherfucker!"
Princess Heng cursed loudly, and then seemed to realize that what she said was really inappropriate. Even Emperor Jingde frowned deeply and simply slapped his thigh and howled.
"Father, Xun'er and Shou'er may be absurd, but they know their limits. Someone must have captured them and is planning something bad. Father, please send the Imperial Guards to find them!"
Emperor Jingde was troubled by her crying and looked at Prince Heng.
Prince Heng was also very worried about his son.
"Father, I and the Xie family have sent people to search the city several times, but we haven't found them. I heard that they disappeared after leaving the Pei Mansion the day before yesterday. I found traces of a fight in a small alley. Could it be..."
He hesitated for a moment, and Emperor Jingde waved his hand, "You can say whatever you want."
Prince Heng swallowed his saliva. "Could it be that my fourth brother has returned? I heard that he is still alive. He has hatred in his heart, so he attacked the children first, and then..."
"absurd!"
Emperor Jingde slammed the table heavily.
What a mess. They believe everything they hear and link everything to that.
"Father..."
Princess Heng wanted to howl again, but Emperor Jingde quickly stopped her.
"Alright, alright, I'll have someone look for it."
Concubine Li hurried forward and helped Princess Heng up.
The palace was in chaos, and the city was full of fear.
I heard that the missing people were the young master of Duke Xie's family and the two young princes of Prince Heng's Mansion.
The families currently searching for someone in the city included Duke Xie's Mansion, Prince Heng's Mansion, and the Pei Mansion. The person had gone missing after leaving the Pei Mansion, and since the Pei Mansion had good relationships with these two families, they naturally joined the search.
At this moment, even the imperial guards were alarmed.
For a moment, all the streets and alleys in Shengjing City were filled with soldiers.
In the dark room.
Tan Taiting angrily kicked his subordinate and cursed:
"Idiots! I let you become pariahs, and yet you caused me so much trouble! Do you think we won't die quickly enough?"
Each of his men had bruised faces and noses, still bearing the scars of the beating Liao Zhiyi had inflicted the day before. One of them, with red and swollen eyes, slowly poked his head out.
"Sir, that lowly fellow is no ordinary person. His attack was a lethal one. We are no match for him. That's why we had to come up with this underhanded trick."
"I don't know where those three brats came from. It was an emergency, so we had to tie them up together."
Tan Tai Ting was filled with anger.
After Prince Jing fled north, he carefully hid in Shengjing City and helped him rebuild the dark web that had almost collapsed. He should have been living a low profile, but he didn't expect to get into such a big trouble now.
If someone were to trace him and expose the dark web, all the plans Prince Jing had made in Shengjing City would be wasted.
"Sir, that man is not only incredibly skilled, but his clothes were torn during the fight, and I even saw an eagle on his chest!"
"eagle?"
"That's right! Sir, that's the tattoo of the Zhenbei Army!"
"Zhenbei Army! He is actually from Zhenbei Army!"
Tan Tai Ting never imagined that Liao Zhiyi was actually a remnant of the Zhenbei Army! He absolutely couldn't let him live and ruin Prince Jing's plan!
"Sir, let's go all out. Why don't we just give them all to..." Donglai made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Do it cleanly."
"Don't worry, sir. I will do it cleanly."
The men covered their faces and walked to the next room with knives in hand.
