The old lady really did what she said. As soon as Zi'an left, she ordered people to prepare a carriage to go to the Marquis' Mansion.
The courage of activists can sometimes be frightening, especially those who have been on the battlefield.
Zi'an returned to the princess's mansion, and recently she has treated it as her home.
As soon as he entered the palace, he asked the imperial physician, "Did the girl bring a blood antelope horn?"
The royal doctor said, "Replying to the princess, she didn't bring it. She just said that her mother had a blood antelope horn. Later, when she was shown the picture, she said that the color didn't match, so it must not be one."
"The color doesn't match? What color did she say?" Zi'an asked.
"She said yellow, with streaks of blood," the imperial physician replied.
Zi'an thought about it for a moment. The blood antelope horn might change color due to storage problems, so it would be better to verify it. "Did she leave an address? Why don't we go and see it in person?"
The imperial physician said, "No, but I know her name. It seems to be Wang Yier."
Wang Yier? This name sounds familiar.
Xiao Tuo just walked in. After hearing what the imperial physician said, he hurriedly asked, "Wang Yier? You said someone named Wang Yier came here today?"
"Yes, it's the girl who came today and said that she had a blood antelope horn at home." said the imperial physician.
Xiao Tuo looked at King Liang and said angrily, "I told you today that I seemed to see Yi'er, why didn't you say anything? You didn't tell me that Yi'er was here."
King Liang sat on the chair with an indifferent look, "So what if I came here?"
"She got on the prince's carriage!" Xiao Tuo was so anxious that he jumped up and down.
King Liang stood up suddenly, "What did you say?"
"I saw her get into the prince's carriage with my own eyes."
King Liang was so angry that his veins popped out. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Xiao Tuo said: "I told you right after I came in that I seemed to see Yi'er, but you didn't say anything. I thought I was seeing things, and wondered how Yi'er could be here?"
King Liang gritted his teeth and said, "You will die of stupidity!"
After saying that, he went out like a whirlwind.
Xiao Tuo was stunned for a moment, then he ran out as well, "You are the stupid one, you bastard."
Zi'an looked a little solemn. This Yi'er should be the sweetheart of Prince Liang, but why did she get on the prince's carriage
The two of them came back after about an hour.
King Liang said angrily: "Did you see it clearly?"
"I just think they look a bit similar. Who knows if it's true?" Xiao Tuo was also a little unsure.
Zi'an asked hurriedly, "Have you found the prince? Did he take Yi'er away?"
Prince Liang said, "He was listening to music in Lanfang, and he was hugging a woman. The woman was wearing the same color clothes as Yi'er. He said that the woman was the one Xiao Tuo saw at the gate of the princess's mansion."
"What a coincidence?" Zi'an couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Xiao Tuo said: "The prince is a lecherous person by nature. He always brings singing girls with him wherever he goes. It's not surprising that he brought a woman to the princess's mansion this time. Besides, he has no reason to take Yi'er away. He doesn't even know Yi'er."
Zi'an suddenly remembered that Xiao Tuo had said before that he had never seen Yi'er, so he asked, "I remember you said before that you had never seen Yi'er, why do you recognize her?"
Xiao Tuo scratched his head, "Did I say that? But it wouldn't be strange if I did. I only saw it once, when they met."
Zi'an said, "You've only seen her once, wouldn't you have made a mistake? After all, you only saw her back as she got on the carriage."
Xiao Tuo was not quite sure in the first place, and now after Zi'an's words, he was even less sure whether that person was Yi'er. But for some reason, when he looked at her at first glance, he thought it was Yi'er.
Prince Liang said angrily, "I don't want to provoke that person, but you are wrong. I am so angry today that I might go to the palace to inform my mother tomorrow."
Zi'an said calmly, "Why are you afraid of him? You don't owe him anything."
She still felt resentful about King Liang's unwillingness to treat her, and felt that he was not strong enough.
King Liang knew that she was angry and did not say anything.
Seeing his expression, Zi'an was too lazy to say anything to him. "Okay, send someone to Yi'er's house to ask if she has returned. Also, check if her mother's antelope horns are bloody."
King Liang was stunned for a moment, "I don't know where she lives."
"You don't know where she lives?" Zi'an looked at him as if he were a monster. "You like her so much, how could you not know where she lives? Where did you look for her before?"
"She used to sell her own hairpins at the market in Xinanfang, but she stopped going there later, and I don't know where she set up her stall. I walked past there several times but never saw her." King Liang said embarrassedly.
Zian couldn't help but write "admiration" in capital letters, this love story is really...
She asked Xiao Tuo, "Is the prince not back yet?"
"No!" Xiao Tuo was a little absent-minded, as if he was still thinking about Yi'er.
"Has any news come out?"
"No, but the Prince of Yuedong is back and should have entered the palace by now," said Xiao Tuo.
Zi'an knew that King Yuedong was Zhuangzhuang's elder brother and loved him very much.
I heard that he has a very bad temper. I wonder if he will cause any trouble if he enters the palace now.
You know, the guy in her family also has a bad temper.
As the sky darkened and Murong Jie had not yet left the palace, Zi'an became restless and wanted to ask Xiao Tuo to go into the palace to find out some news.
Before Xiao Tuo went out, he saw Qionghua leading a woman in. She looked to be about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old, wearing a green dress, with no decoration on her head, a neat bun, and the only thing she was wearing on her body was probably a huge string of Buddhist beads on her wrist.
She was not very pretty, but her facial features were clear, the kind that people could remember at first sight. Her eyebrows were thick and dark, making her look very heroic.
But her movements were very graceful, and she walked in with gentle steps like a lotus. Qinzhi brought her in, and she smiled when she saw people, very gently.
"Princess, this lady said she came to look for her daughter. Her daughter is Wang Yier who came today." Qin Zhi said.
Prince Liang jumped up and looked at the woman. "Are you Yi'er's mother? She didn't go back?"
The woman looked at King Liang, took off her Buddhist beads and turned them in her hands, and replied softly, "Yes, I am Yi'er's mother. She went out today and never came back. Before she went out, she told the neighbors that she was coming to the princess's mansion. I wanted to ask if she came today?"
Xiao Tuo was dumbfounded, "Oh my god, the person who got on the prince's carriage today was really Yi'er."
The woman turned her head and looked at Xiao Tuo, raising her eyes slightly, "You said Yi'er got on the prince's carriage? What's going on? How did she get on the prince's carriage?"
She turned the Buddhist beads faster and faster.
"Madam, don't worry. We will go find the prince and bring Yi'er back." Xiao Tuo said hurriedly.
Over there, King Liang had already clenched his fists, veins showing, "Xiao Tuo, go!"
Zi'an was afraid that they would be impulsive and fail to find Yi'er, so he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go with you."
But the woman stopped everyone and said, "Since the prince has taken her away, I will go directly to find the prince and will not bother you."
