My Funny Consort

Chapter 74

After the group returned to the Duke Palaces, Mu Yexiao had only sent people out to look for the Senior Servant Wan, but he did not say a single word to Qian Jiujiu.

Wasn"t this prince held by the imperial concubine in the heart of a beast? Why isn"t the prince going to comfort the princess when she"s so upset?

Qian Jiujiu pretended not to mind and continued to anxiously wait for news. With Wan Yin being so weak, what would happen if she fell into the hands of those bad people?

She would definitely be afraid and worried right now, but Qian Jiujiu felt that she couldn"t do anything. She was simply fidgety and couldn"t sleep well.

It was not good to eat, what"s more the others, they didn"t care at all. They just looked at Hong Ling: "Hong Ling, as soon as there is a trace of the Senior Servant Wan, come and inform me immediately."

The scene that happened in the decimetine today made Qian Jiujiu deeply realize how weak she was right now. Even if she had recovered to her prime, she was still up against someone with inner strength.

In the past, she had felt that some of the poisons were too venomous, but now, in order to protect herself, she had no choice but to do so.

Especially the Dissolving Bone Water, with just a little bit, it could turn a whole person into nothingness. However, when carrying it on one"s back, one needed to be careful, otherwise it would harm oneself.

Qian Jiujiu went into the pharmacy this time to concoct the Bone Dissolving Water. This way, as long as the water she spilled was the Bone Dissolving Water, she wouldn"t be in any danger.

When Hong Ling saw Qian Jiujiu enter the pharmacy, she became a little worried and came to Mu Yexiao"s side. "Your Highness, is there still no news from Senior Servant Wan?"

Mu Yexiao acknowledged: "No, right, what is the w.a.n.gfei doing?"

From the day before, when he returned to the Duke Palaces, Qian Jiujiu couldn"t help but eat in the kitchen. This made Mu Yexiao, who had been used to eating Qian Jiujiu"s food for the past few months, feel a little uncomfortable.

Furthermore, after a night of this kind of cold war, Mu Yexiao had a deep impression of just how childish this behavior was, so he prepared to look for Qian Jiujiu.

Although it was a little embarra.s.sing, but after thinking about it, Qian Jiujiu was not in a good mood right now. Even if she was angry, she shouldn"t choose to do it at this time, which was why he took the initiative to care about what Qian Jiujiu was doing.

Hong Ling lowered her head. "Princess has been locking herself in the pharmacy ever since morning. She hasn"t come out yet and has only asked me to inform her once she has news of Senior Servant Wan."

Mu Yexiao frowned, he did not know what Qian Jiujiu meant by that. After locking himself in the pharmacy and shaking his wheelchair, Mu Yexiao went inside the pharmacy.

"Jiu Er, what are you doing inside?"

When Qian Jiujiu heard Mu Yexiao"s voice, her movements paused for a moment. Then, she pretended to reply as if nothing had happened: "In reply to Your Highness, I"m concocting a medicine."

"If Your Highness has anything to say, you can wait for me to come out."

Mu Yexiao frowned deeply. Why did Mu Yexiao feel that Qian Jiujiu was miles away from his heart at this moment?

He still wanted to say something, but he couldn"t say a single word. On the other hand, Qian Jiujiu who was inside didn"t make a single sound, as if she didn"t know that Mu Yexiao was standing outside of this favor.

Dong Chen and Hong Ling who followed along looked at each other. Why couldn"t they understand it?

Mu Yexiao also did not leave and only waited outside the door. This time, Qian Jiujiu stayed in the pharmacy for two days and two nights, and when she opened the door, she was the first one to see.

Mu Yexiao, who had been waiting outside for her for so long, could not help but look up. "Your highness was waiting for me here early in the morning, is there something you need? Or did something happen in Senior Servant Wan? "

Mu Yexiao looked at Qian Jiujiu: "Can"t you speak properly?"

Qian Jiujiu was puzzled: "May I ask Your Highness, when have I not spoken properly? If the Duke didn"t come to find me about the Senior Servant Wan. "

"Then please step aside, I am very busy, and since Your Highness cannot find the Senior Servant Wan, I can only look for it myself."

In these two days, in order to find the Senior Servant Wan, Mu Yexiao had practically flipped through the entire capital. He had almost dispatched all of his men, yet he was still listening to Qian Jiujiu"s words.

A wave of anger rose in his heart, and he pulled Qian Jiujiu"s hand: "Are you blaming me?"

Qian Jiujiu finally looked at Mu Yexiao formally. "Your Highness, you have misunderstood! "I have no relationship with you, so it"s normal that you don"t want to help me. If you were to help me, I would be very grateful."

"If you cannot help me, I will not hate you. After all, I have already said it. This is very normal."

Mu Yexiao was simply unable to speak due to Qian Jiujiu"s words, she could only let go of Qian Jiujiu right away, "Do whatever you want."

After saying that, Mu Yexiao immediately left in his wheelchair. Qian Jiujiu looked at Mu Yexiao"s wheelchair, lowered her eyes, blinked a few times, and then raised her head to look at Hong Ling.

He saw Hong Ling look at him with disapproval: "Hong Ling, you have something to say to me?"

Hong Ling looked at Qian Jiujiu, "Princess, you misunderstood my lord. The prince didn"t care about the Senior Servant Wan, nor did he care about your matters.

"It"s just that I really don"t know who took Senior Servant Wan away, there"s not the slightest bit of news. Oh right, this prince has something to tell you. "

"A strange thing happened in the Third Prince"s Estate. There was originally a dungeon in the Third Prince"s Estate, but on the day that the Senior Servant Wan went missing, all of the guards in the dungeon in the Third Prince"s Estate were killed by someone else."

When Qian Jiujiu heard this news, she immediately looked up at Hong Ling. "Then this is really strange. How did those people die?"

Hong Ling heard about Qian Jiujiu"s interest and immediately agreed: "Speaking of which, those people"s deaths were strange, to think that they were all decided by someone else."

"This matter has now become a hot topic throughout the capital!"

Qian Jiujiu became silent, but her mind was spinning quickly. Was it what she was thinking? She suddenly raised her head to look at Hong Ling. "Where"s that little beggar?"

Little beggar? Qian Jiujiu was talking about the little beggar who came to deliver the letter. It had been two days, but she did not know if Qian Jiujiu had been able to draw a picture of him with the help of the painter.

"That little beggar is still at the painter"s place. Is the princess going to take a look?"

Qian Jiujiu nodded: "Then let"s go take a look."

With Hong Ling leading the way, they brought Qian Jiujiu to where the painter was. The painter had been tortured greatly by the little beggar for the past two days, and had finally walked past the little beggar"s mouth.

He finished drawing the portrait of the person who asked him to deliver the letter. Just as he was about to take it to the prince, he heard the words" w.a.n.gfei is here ". The painter quickly knelt. "Greetings w.a.n.gfei."

Qian Jiujiu acknowledged, "Get up, how is it? Have you drawn a person yet? "

The painter hurriedly brought out his portrait. "Reporting to Princess, I"ve already drawn it. That little beggar said it"s him."

Qian Jiujiu looked at the person on the map and couldn"t help but narrow his eyes. Very good, it"s actually her! Hong Ling also looked at the person on the portrait in shock and looked at Qian Jiujiu.

"Princess, isn"t that the people from the thousand? Or …

What she did not say was that it was still Qian Yuge"s personal servant. Last time, Qian Yuge"s personal maid was killed, and there was only one left, she actually still had to come out to stir up trouble.

Qian Jiujiu also squinted her eyes, obviously recognizing her as well. She looked at Hong Ling, "I didn"t know about this matter, but she also partic.i.p.ated in it."

"Prepare a trip, let"s head back to Shang Shu Fu, and go visit my cousin."

Hong Ling felt that Qian Jiujiu"s words were very dark, but she still nodded her head. "Alright, this servant will go prepare the carriage now.

Qian Jiujiu immediately shook her head: "No need, where I go, what does it have to do with him?"

Hong Ling was immediately blocked and looked at Qian Jiujiu. "Then I"ll go get Qing Lian. This way, at least two of us will be able to protect you, Master."

This time Qian Jiujiu did not refuse. "Alright, then go."

"Then, mistress, please wait here for me. I will call Qing Lian to come pick you up, and I will go prepare the carriage."

Qian Jiujiu naturally knew that she wouldn"t be able to go back, and she couldn"t even walk to the main gate. At this moment, she hated the foolhardy nature of him, "I know, you can go."

Hong Ling ran very quickly towards Qian Jiujiu"s courtyard. Upon entering, she saw Qing Lian, "Qing Lian, go inside the Painter"s Hall to fetch the w.a.n.gfei."

"I"ll go prepare the carriage. The princess is leaving the mansion."

Qing Lian replied, "Alright, I"ll go now."

Only after seeing Qing Lian"s figure leave did Hong Ling heave a sigh of relief. After thinking about it, she still felt that it was a bit inappropriate for her to leave the palace alone, so she came to Mu Yexiao"s courtyard.

When Dong Chen saw Mu Yexiao return with a darkened face, he did not dare to say anything. He could only silently stand guard at the door, because he did not know what had happened.

Seeing Hong Ling come over, she really wanted to ask about it, but she didn"t have the time to speak with him right now. She looked at Dong Chen and said, "Dong Chen, I"m looking for Your Highness."

As she spoke, she came to Mu Yexiao"s door, "My lord, this servant is Hong Ling. I am leaving the house to look for Miss Biao in the Qian House.

"That person is actually Miss Biao"s personal maidservant. So when Princess HuYang wanted to ask, I came to inform you that I"m going to prepare the carriage."

After saying that in one breath, Hong Ling turned around and prepared the carriage. If she didn"t hurry, the w.a.n.gfei would have thought that he had come to the courtyard and told the prince.

She was afraid that the w.a.n.gfei was going to blame her. Although she didn"t know why the w.a.n.gfei suddenly became courteous to the prince, Hong Ling knew that the w.a.n.gfei was definitely angry with the prince.

Thinking of this, Hong Ling felt that she was in a bit of a predicament. The two masters were in an awkward situation or something like that, and the ones that were bullied were the servants in the middle.

Hong Ling quickly prepared a carriage and arrived at the door. "Princess, please board the carriage."
