"Grandmother... disappeared?"
"Yes."
"How? How could she disappear?"
Nan Yan was in a hurry, but seeing her like this, Gu Tingchun was even more nervous than before, almost speechless.
Si Muyun, who was still on the side, was quite calm, stepped forward and said: "Reporting to the imperial concubine, my grandmother was still at home last night, and everything is normal. This morning, someone came from the palace early in the morning, knowing that the imperial concubine is going to go to Ning to save her relatives, so Weichen and others will start preparing immediately."
"..."
"At the third quarter of the hour, let people invite the old grandmother."
"..."
"As a result, it was discovered that the grandmother was missing."
Nan Yan said loudly: "Where are the people who serve her?"
A few servant girls hurried forward, kowtowed on the ground, kowtowed like garlic: "I beg your concubine to forgive me."
"Please tell me clearly, why did grandma disappear?"
"The servants really don't know."
"After serving the old lady to sleep last night, the servants all retreated. This morning, the servants went as usual - earlier than usual to ask the old lady to pick them up."
"It turned out that there was no one in the house."
They cried and begged for mercy: "I beg your concubine to forgive me, the servants really don't know what happened, and they don't know why the old lady disappeared."
"..."
Nanyan's breath became heavy.
Grandma is missing.
She actually disappeared!
Although in the past, she had been ill and wandered around the house when she was unconscious, but it would not be like this now.
Although the Si family is not as heavily guarded as the imperial palace, there are still guards.
It is impossible for an old man to disappear from such a large mansion out of thin air without alarming anyone.
This is obviously not normal!
Just when Nan Yan was in a panic, a big gentle hand touched her shoulder.
A low but steady voice sounded beside his ear.
"Don't worry."
Looking back, it was Zhu Feng.
He looked at Nan Yan calmly, with steady eyes, and said, "Go in first, find out what's going on, and then we'll talk."
As soon as his voice sounded, Nan Yan inexplicably felt relieved.
She nodded slightly to him.
At this moment, it seems that there is no need to be afraid of the sky falling.
There he is.
Just like the last canonization ceremony in front of Fengtian Temple, when the letter was made public and everyone was against her, Zhu Feng did the same, reaching out to support her.
The warm body temperature spread from his palm to her back, all the way to her limbs.
Being supported by him like this, she walked into the Si's house.
The inside also looked a little messy. Obviously, after getting up early in the morning and finding that Tong Yuhua was gone, everyone in the mansion started looking for it, and some even went to the street outside.
Nan Yan walked in with Zhu Feng and sat down in the lobby.
Ask about the situation.
Then, he sent everyone out, even Ye Zheng led people out to search for clues.
Someone offered refreshments, but Nanyan didn't have any thoughts at all, she at least anxiously looked forward to it, hoping that someone would find her grandmother back.
Or, it would be nice to find a little clue.
Time passed bit by bit.
Soon, it was afternoon.
The people who went out to search came back in batches. They searched inside the mansion and searched the bottom of the sky. There was also a large area outside, and there was no clue at all.
Nan Yan's heart sank more and more, as if sinking into a cold pool.
The hand she was holding on to the armrest of the chair kept shaking, and she felt like she was sitting in a world of ice and snow.
At this time, Zhu Feng's hand covered hers.
Nan Yan raised her head and looked at him, her eyes filled with tears.
Zhu Feng frowned.
"Nanyan..."
"Your Majesty," Nan Yan said tremblingly, "What should I do?"
"..."
"Grandma is missing, what should I do?"
"..."
"She, she has been sick all the time, and when she gets sick, she doesn't remember anything."
"..."
"Sometimes, she obviously just had a meal and doesn't remember it, so everyone must cook for her."
"..."
"It's done, it's in front of her eyes, and she won't eat it again."
"..."
"She can't remember the way, sometimes, even I don't know."
"..."
"What should I do? What if she gets lost and doesn't remember the way back?"
Hearing her crying and talking, the tears rolled down one by one like broken beads, Zhu Feng's heart was tugged.
He grabbed her hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "I'm here."
"..."
"do not be afraid."
"..."
"I will find a way to help you find her back."
Nan Yan almost couldn't help crying, but seeing his firm look, she seemed relieved.
She could only grit her teeth and hold back.
He nodded his head heavily.
But Zhu Feng raised his head and looked at the sky outside. As dusk fell, the whole world began to slowly become dark.
After a while, the last group of people sent by the Si family also came back.
Still no news.
At this moment, Nan Yan only felt that she was about to collapse.
However, the hand that had been holding her hand all this time exerted a slight force, gripping her even tighter.
Shen Sheng said: "I said, don't be afraid."
Nan Yan's eyes were full of tears, she twitched slightly, and turned to look at him.
Zhu Feng said calmly, "Wait a little longer."
"..."
He said wait, just wait.
Don't look at how intimidating the name of the imperial concubine is, in fact, it's just a bit of prestige in the harem.
When I really leave the palace, I can't do anything by myself.
Can only wait.
Nan Yan gritted her teeth and entangled his fingers.
In the end, even Gu Tingchun and Si Muyun came back, everyone was careful not to offend Si Nanyan.
Just as it was getting dark, there was a rush of footsteps outside.
Nan Yan looked up in panic, and saw Ye Zheng walking in with a group of people.
He seemed to have traveled a lot, and with a dusty face, he said to Zhu Feng, "Your Majesty!"
"how?"
"I just went to the Nine Gates to check. The guards said that when the gates were opened this morning, there was indeed a person who looked like Mrs. Si and left Jinling City."
"...!"
When Nan Yan heard this, her eyes widened immediately.
Quickly asked: "Is she alone?"
Ye Zheng turned to look at her, shook his head: "No."
"..."
"She was taken away."
"What?"
Nan Yan's heart sank.
Ye Zheng said: "The soldiers guarding the city said that there were a few men. It seems that there are quite a few of them. They took her out of Jinling City. It seems that they should be heading north."
"...!"
Nanyan took a deep breath.
Zhu Feng said: "Do you know who took her away?"
Ye Zheng shook his head: "Because it's not yet dawn, and the guards didn't pay attention."
"..."
"However, listening to their accents, they don't look like locals."
"..."
"Like, people from the country of Tan."
