After nightfall, the palace was filled with silence. It had only been a few days since the turmoil initiated by Ni Chang.
Because of what happened a few days ago, the guards and patrols in the palace became more and more strict after dark during this period, 24 hours a day, and there was no slack even during the shift change.
The Ming'an Hall was solemn. The people sitting on the sofa in the main hall were silent. Yin Sa looked at the door with a gloomy expression.
It had been two full hours since Wen Li was taken away, and it was already dark.
The people sent out to investigate have not yet given a reply. Who took the person away and where he went.
Thinking of what might happen to Wen Li, Yin Sa was in a bad mood.
"When should we wait?" Yin Sa spoke first.
Su Jingjing slowly put down the milkshake in her hand, "Why are you panicking?"
I'm afraid Wen Li knew it long before she got in the car. If the other party didn't have what she wanted, she would have exploded.
"But there is still no news about Wen Li. I don't even know where he is now. Are you sure Wen Li is safe?" Yin Sa said in an impatient tone.
"Do you think she was tricked into growing up?" Su Jingjing chuckled, "If you can't see through such tricks, I'm afraid this person won't be alive today."
Yin Sa knew what she meant. Wen Li had been alone for so many years, and it must have been very difficult for him to get this child.
"Quietly wait for the news." Su Jingjing looked down at her phone.
Yin Sa looked anxious, but she still looked at Gu Ningxi, who was playing games with her head down next to Su Jingjing.
Where did this little girl come from
When did you come in
Dong Qing looked solemn when he came back with the people, and handed over all the video information in his hand.
"Your Highness, the motorcade that took Miss Wen Li away disappeared from the side of the palace. The destination of the motorcade is unknown."
"Unclear?!" Yin Sa reached out and touched his face, almost losing control of his emotions and going crazy.
He felt more and more regretful in his heart. If only he could react quickly after knowing Wen Li's identity.
After taking the person back to Ming'an Palace for protection, he would not be so passive now.
"With Xia Chen and Lu Min following you, you don't have to be so anxious. The person who took Wen Li away at this time must have known her identity. If he wasn't sure that Princess Lejia would leave an heir, he would definitely not dare Such a desperate risk."
Su Jingjing's words brought Yin Sa back to her senses. According to Wen Li, Lejia gave birth to her in G country, but it was a fact known to everyone in the royal family that Princess Lejia was sentenced to death.
If we want to talk about people who can know the existence of Wen Li, they must be related to the people who killed Wen Xuqian and his wife.
"What do you mean?"
Su Jingjing spread out the page on her phone, zoomed in and tapped the screen with her fingertips, "The location has been grasped, let's see if Wen Li has found the truth."
There is an old saying that is quite true, if you don’t enter the tiger’s den, you won’t get the tiger cubs.
Before they could figure out what was going on, there was a rush of footsteps at the door of the palace.
Everyone looked up and saw Hebrews coming in uniform.
Yin Sa raised his eyebrows slightly. He remembered that Hebrew had received the order and had to lead troops to leave the capital and go to the intercontinental border tonight.
Why is this person here now
The lights in the Ming'an Hall were brightly lit, and Hebrew happened to pass by with a group of people and saw soldiers entering and exiting in a hurry.
"what happened?"
The deputy general behind him took a look and then said, "I heard that the God of Medicine was missing. When His Highness Yin Sa sent someone to pick him up in the afternoon, he found out that someone had taken the God of Medicine away in the name of His Highness."
Regarding the disappearance of the God of Medicine, although Yin Sa did not search for it in a big way, he did not shy away from it either.
This is no longer a secret.
"Missing." Hebrews muttered these words.
With that girl's ability, how could she be deceived so easily? There must be something going on.
"Find out the whole story."
The deputy general told what he heard, "The convoy did not have a license plate number, and it took roads in the royal city without surveillance equipment. The last batch of shots captured the convoy passing near the side entrance of the palace."
It has disappeared since then.
"So, people disappeared near the palace?" Hebrews asked.
The deputy general who heard what he meant reacted instantly, "Do you think it is?"
Hebrew raised his hand to stop his movements, "Let's go to see His Majesty first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Now Hatas has given an order for him to lead the team to the intercontinental border. After bidding farewell to Hatas, it is time for him to leave.
The group of people walked in uniform steps to the entrance of Teng Palace.
Before entering the main hall, I heard the sound of music playing from the backyard. Hatas loved traditional musical instruments very much.
When the palace receives foreign guests, music played on traditional instruments is used. In his spare time, Hatas himself will also play a piece.
Sure enough, when Hebrew entered the door, he saw Hatas playing the strings.
The sound of the piano is melodious and touching.
"Your Majesty, the Hebrew Prince has arrived." Niron reminded softly.
Hatas released his hand after pulling the last string, handed the instrument to Nilen, lowered his head and straightened the finger cots on his hands.
"Your Majesty, I will set off after bidding you farewell." Hebrew nodded lightly.
Hatas looked at the person in front of him calmly, "Take care of yourself."
"While I am away, I hope that Your Majesty can pay more attention to Gu Jiatong and Yingran."
Hatas understood that no matter how far a man travels, his wife and children are the most concerned about him.
"Do not worry."
Hatas took the box from the side and handed it over, "Put this seal away. We haven't fought for a long time. You represent the highest authority this time, so you can't be careless."
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
Hebrews took the brocade box with both hands and held it in his hands. The time to set off was about to come.
Country K, which had not fought a foreign war for a long time, sent Hebrews this time, both in terms of status and ability.
This is enough to prove Hatas’ attitude towards this intercontinental alliance.
"Your Highness, do we still need to help His Highness Yin Sa find someone?"
The deputy general on the side suddenly asked.
These words also successfully attracted Hatas' attention, "Who are you looking for?"
Hebrew said without hesitation, "The God of Medicine disappeared this afternoon. I heard that he was picked up by someone in the name of Yin Sa. There was no news after he left. Now he is looking for someone everywhere." Nilen There was some panic in his eyes, Miss Wen Li was missing.
How could he be missing when he was well within the royal city
When did this happen, how long has it been happening, and how come no one came to report it.
"Missing?" Hatas looked surprised for a while.
"Yes, I don't know who was held hostage. I heard that the person picked him up in the name of Yin Sa. The motorcade also took remote paths that are difficult to trace. The last time I saw him was at the side entrance of the palace. nearby."
Hebrew's words made Niron wonder for a while.
The person in the entire palace who could deceive Wen Li away would never be able to send him back to the palace again.
"I have sent additional manpower to Yin Sa to search, but the area is too large, and the other party is well prepared, so it may be difficult to find him. He has a bad temper and doesn't like to talk to others. I must count on His Majesty to help. .”
After Hebrews said this, the lieutenant reminded that the time was up.
Hatas waved for him to step back, and Nilen became uneasy after watching the people walk out of the main hall.
"His Majesty!"
If it was a kidnapping, the other party must have contacted the palace to negotiate terms, but no one has contacted him yet.
Hatas suddenly raised his hand to brush his face and stood up suddenly, "Yun Mu!"
The young man guarding the door strode in, waiting for the king's order.
"Lead two teams to surround the south side of the palace, including the guest palace!"
"yes!"
Yun Mu could tell that the king was in a bad mood, so he turned around and hurried out of the palace's main entrance with his men.
Steady and neat footsteps suddenly sounded in the palace. Such steady steps made people panic.
This was the sound of military dispatch. If something big had not happened, these guards would not have been able to move in the same direction so neatly.
"Your Highness, you mean that Miss Wen Li was taken away by the people at the altar."
Nilen thought of what Prince Pei said in front of Hatas a few days ago. If he was not completely sure, he would not have said that.
"Only he has the guts to do this." Hatas said with a sullen face.
In the palace, which had only been quiet for a few days, Yun Mu and his people surrounded the south side again, and people were panicked for a while.
What happened again
…
The story in the water mirror ends on the second night after the boy leaves. Everything is dark and the lights are dim.
Wen Yanxing, who was busy with experiments that night, did not go home. Wen Xuqian sat in the study with his head down and sorting notes.
The night breeze floated the flowers in the sunflower field, and the street lamps under the eaves illuminated the vicinity of the wooden house with bright and warm light.
The bright lights in the study and the lights under the eaves are the only sources of light in this ten-mile radius of darkness.
Everything looks so harmonious and beautiful.
The woman in light-colored home clothes lowered her head and covered the little girl on the bed with a quilt. There were three tickets on the desk beside her.
It shows departure at 4:30 in the morning.
After coaxing her daughter to sleep, Lejia stood up and closed the window. Even though the other party was cautious, she still saw the shallow shadows floating in the sunflower field.
She turned around and picked up her daughter in a hurry. The little girl who had just fallen asleep was woken up and snorted unhappily.
Lejia covered her daughter's lips and whispered, "Baby, no matter what you see, you can't make a sound for a while. You must not cry. Cover your eyes and don't look at anything."
Before she finished speaking, the confused little girl was stuffed into the closet.
The moment the cabinet door closed, there was a sound of bullets piercing flesh. Lejia fell to the ground. She looked down at the blood on her chest, and the strong smell of blood surged in her throat.
Wen Xuqian, who heard the noise, rushed over and was shot before he could reach his wife.
Bright red blood spurted out, and he fell next to Le Jia, twitching his body and trying to reach her hand, but he couldn't stretch out even an inch.
In a blur, the person who climbed in through the window on the second floor gently put back his gun, took two steps and gently moved the person on the ground.
After confirming that the person was dead, he took back the gun in his hand.
"It seems there is another child. We can't keep that child. Find it."
Following the man's order, the people who broke in from the first floor began to rummage around. Just before the closet door was about to open, the woman on the ground used all her strength to touch the mechanism that was pressed beneath her.
Amid the chaos, groups of people seemed to be arriving.
Wen Li saw Wen Xuqian grabbing their arms and using his last strength to beg them to save his wife, but his life was taken away by a shot.
"Ding… "
It seemed like the sound of something falling to the ground.
The person standing in front of Le Jia bent down, took off the ring she was wearing, put it into her arms, and then threw an emerald green ring casually to the ground.
The mirror disappeared with the passing of the person in the mirror, and Prince Pei breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing everything.
"Because it's from your mother's perspective, what's in the mirror is naturally something your mother has seen."
All the major events that affected Le Jia's life are reviewed one by one.
But I didn't expect that the execution for rebellion back then would be such a ridiculous thing.
Wen Li lowered her head and looked at the ring in her hand. She could clearly see the face her mother had seen before she died, but there was still only a vague shadow.
Most importantly, this ring was the last thing her mother saw.
"I originally guessed that this would be a game where your father allowed her to escape. I personally inspected Le Jia's body and was almost certain that she was dead. I saw her buried in a mass grave with my own eyes. , but it’s still one move away.”
No matter how suspicious he was of everything back then, it was just speculation in the end. Le Jia's body almost eliminated all their doubts.
More importantly, the ever-burning lamp in the hall was also extinguished all night, which made him believe that Le Jia was dead.
"Your Majesty is a good father, and he can plan for his daughter to this extent. It's a pity that your appearance has broken all the lies. The biggest flaw in his entire plan is you."
Prince Pei looked at Wen Li and continued talking to himself, "If he could be ruthless and do what he did back then when you entered the palace, he shouldn't have kept you just to look at you more."
The biggest flaw in all secret and well-planned plans is that people cannot control their emotions.
"My child, I was actually very impressed when I saw you. You are Le Jia's child. I watched such an outstanding Le Jia grow up. Her children must also be the best. It's a pity that you inherited Her bloodline will definitely follow the same path as hers, and this is your destiny... "
The fate that cannot be escaped even if it lasts for several generations is already destiny.
Now that Lejia is dead, only her children can continue on this path.
