The palace's secret passage leads to the outside of the city, and if traces of walking out of the secret passage can be found, it means that the person has been taken out of the city.
But it's not guaranteed to be a cover-up, or a deliberate bluff, after all, the people behind it are first-class both in terms of skills and schemes. Therefore, Yun Chi still didn't dare to relax even the slightest bit of search of the palace and the imperial city.
After Yun Ying left, Yun Chi stood up and said to An Shuli, "Come with me to the Spring Festival."
An Shuli nodded, now besides investigating Wu Weihou's mansion, naturally he also needs to investigate the people around Su Zizhan, as well as the property and power under Su Zizhan's name.
When the two left the palace, the snow kept falling outside, turning the night into a silvery white.
Inside Chunhongguan, Fengniang and Chunzhi were sitting opposite each other, Dongzhi was also in the room, but he didn't sit quietly like the two of them, but walked back and forth on the ground, round and round, very impatient.
Dongzhi walked back and forth, causing Fengniang a lot of headaches, "Dongzhi, it's okay, you be quiet for a while, I'm blinded by walking."
Dong Zhi stopped in his tracks, "Feng Niang, the son is not the son, the princess is missing, how can you make me calm down?"
"If you can't be quiet, you have to be quiet." Chun Zhi raised his head and looked at him. "This happened suddenly. We don't know the specific situation. Now there is no other way but to wait quietly."
"I've been waiting for everyone for a day, but there is no news from the young master. His Highness has searched the whole city, and the princess is nowhere to be seen." Dong Zhi was very irritable, "Shouldn't our people go to find the young master?"
Feng Niang shook her head, "Someone dares to masquerade as a young master to attend a palace banquet, what a terrible thing is that? Just ask, we have been with the young master for many years, and we can do some disguises. Maybe we can't do it, then Who can do it? Is it someone who followed the son since childhood?"
Dongzhi stopped talking, but he was not reconciled, "But we can't just do nothing."
Feng Niang glanced at the sky and hesitated for a while, "We'll wait for dawn. His Highness the Crown Prince has invited Lord Hou into the East Palace. The capital is being searched within a radius of five hundred miles. Our people are dispatched at this time, for fear of disrupting His Highness the Crown Prince's plan." The search plan. If His Royal Highness does not come tonight, we will send out people tomorrow, but instead of looking for people, we will vigorously investigate all of us."
Chun Zhi agreed, and knew Dong Dong, "Listen to Feng Niang, since the young master has entrusted her with everything and everything, what he values is her determination. For so many years, she has never had anything wrong. At this time, the more you can’t panic.”
After all, Dong Zhi was young, and he was an orphan since he was a child. He respected Su Zizhan very much, and he also liked Huayan. I don't have that qualification in my whole life, but it doesn't prevent him from keeping things in his heart.
Now that he heard that someone was pretending to be Su Zizhan and taking Huayan away, but the real Su Zizhan was nowhere to be found, he was naturally in a hurry and wanted to go out to find him, but with Feng Niang suppressing him, he naturally had to listen to Feng Niang. Damn.
So, he quieted down, looking forward to the dawn.
Chunhongguan was brightly lit that day, but he didn't make a living, so it was very quiet.
When Yun Chi and An Shuli arrived and stepped into the threshold of Chunhonghou, Feng Niang ordered the people who were waiting for Yun Chi to notify her as soon as they saw Yun Chi, and quickly knelt down to salute Yun Chi, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Yun Chi waved his hand, "Get up, where is Feng Niang?"
"Fengniang is waiting for His Highness the Crown Prince to come, please His Highness the Crown Prince." The man got up quickly and led the way.
Upstairs, Feng Niang was already waiting at the door with Chun Zhi Dong Zhi, and when she saw Yun Chi, she also knelt down and saluted.
Yun Chi glanced at the three of them, and said calmly, "Get up."
The three stood up, Feng Niang looked at Yun Chi, invited him and An Shuli to sit down, and waited for him to speak.
Yun Chi sat down and asked Feng Niang, "When was the last time you saw Su Zizhan?"
Feng Niang immediately said, "Three days ago, the young master took the little white fox to the drunken feast for dinner in the evening."
"When you met him, what did you say?" Yun Chi asked.
Feng Niang shook her head, "Young master didn't say anything, just had dinner with the little white fox quietly, and then went back home."
Yun Chi raised his eyebrows, "He has been helping me to secretly investigate the people behind the scenes and pay attention to the capital's movements. When I met you, he didn't even say this."
Feng Niang shook her head, "Central Beijing has been too quiet recently, there is no movement, Young Master has ordered people to keep watching all over the capital, but my subordinates really have nothing to report."
"You often sit in the town of Chun Hong Guan, how did you go to Zui Qing Zhai that day?" Yun Chi asked.
&nb
sp;Feng Niang said, "I heard that the young master went to Zui Qing Zhai for dinner suddenly. When I got the news, I went over to have a look. The young master only said a few words to me and let me go on as usual."
Yun Chi stared at Feng Niang, Feng Niang faced Yun Chi directly with a calm expression, Yun Chi nodded, and asked again, "Since Mrs. Wuwei Houji's accident, how many times have you seen him?"
Feng Niang was startled.
"Tell me the truth." Yun Chi looked at her.
Feng Niang thought for a while, and said, "Since Wuwei Hou's step-wife had an accident, my subordinates have seen the young master three times. Once, on the day of the step-wife's accident, the subordinates were worried about the young master, so they went to the young master's mansion." The words fell, She recalled, "On that day, the young master looked calm and said he was fine, so he dismissed his subordinates. The second time when Lu Shizi left the capital, the young master went to see Lu Shizi off. When he came back from outside the city, Laichun Hongguan had a drink Tea, and I didn't say anything."
Yun Chi looked at her, "That is to say, there is nothing wrong with him during this period of time."
Feng Niang lowered her hands and said, "The subordinates didn't find anything wrong with the young master, so today they suddenly heard that something happened in the palace, someone disguised the young master and took the crown princess away, the subordinates were also very surprised."
Yun Chi nodded. During this period of time, he didn't find anything wrong with Su Zizhan. He saw Su Zizhan more times than Feng Niang. He could see him every morning. Since Huayan suffered severe pregnancy and vomiting, he moved the meeting hall to the East Palace, and he also often entered and exited the East Palace, more times than any courtiers.
Since childhood, he and Su Zizhan had disliked each other in the past, but it wasn't that they didn't understand each other at all, and he couldn't think of anyone who could be familiar with Su Zizhan so far, and his appearance was perfect.
If an accident happened to Su Zizhan, but Muhe and the Thirteen Star Souls disappeared together with Su Zizhan, the courtyard of the Prince of Wuwei Houfu was very quiet, no movement was made. As for where he went, with his temperament, it should be properly arranged, and no one should have the opportunity to take his place in the palace banquet in a grandiose way.
Unless, everything is his arrangement.
but the reason
His heart for Huayan, since he accepted it and gave it up at the beginning, he has never done so many opportunities in the Northland, let alone now that Huayan is married to him and pregnant with his child, what is the reason for him to change? got an idea
He didn't believe in Su Zizhan's arrangement no matter what, and Huayan was so sick during pregnancy that he couldn't bear to torment him.
Seeing that Yunchi didn't speak, Fengniang didn't speak anymore.
An Shuli looked at Yun Chi, his face was calm, but his eyes were deep and filled with countless expressions, he knew that he was probably thinking about all kinds of possibilities now. He also thought of some possibilities at this time, but quickly rejected them.
In the whole world, even he counted, except for Yun Chi, the person who treats beauty the best is Su Zizhan.
Dongzhi couldn't bear such silent pressure and silence, he cautiously and tentatively said, "Your Highness, something must have happened to your son, you must find him as soon as possible."
Yun Chi raised his eyes and glanced at Dongzhi. He still had an impression of this young man, and he said in a deep voice, "I have sent people to look for it." Thing, what do you plan to do today, you are waiting for Bengong to come on a special trip today."
Feng Niang lowered her head, "This subordinate knows that His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely come here, and this subordinate is waiting for His Highness to make arrangements. Young Master once said a word, once he dies from a cold attack one day, all the property and power under his name will be handed over to you." To His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Yun Chi was taken aback, looked at Feng Niang, "When did he say that?"
Feng Niang said, "A year ago."
Yun Chi was silent for a moment, and asked, "Later he got rid of his cold, but he said something like this again?"
Feng Niang nodded, "Young master went to the Northland to serve His Highness after he got rid of the cold. After returning from the Northland, his subordinates asked him about his future plans. The young master said that he would enter the court. The subordinates took the opportunity to ask the young master a year ago. In other words, the young master said, he will protect the princess and concubine for a day and help His Royal Highness govern the country. If he is not around any day, it will be as he said before. The subordinate asked if His Highness does not accept it, or His Highness What if?" She paused, raised her head and glanced at Yun Chi, seeing that Yun Chi was listening, her expression unchanged, she continued, "Master, let me find Hua Zhuo, son of the Hua family in Lin'an, and everything will be arranged by him." , she will make the best arrangements for us people."
Yun Chi nodded. A year ago, it was the most severe stage of his cold syndrome, and he probably felt that his life was not long. Huayan hadn't come to Beijing at that time, she came to Beijing when the apricot blossoms were falling. At that time, every time Su Zizhan saw him, his face was not good, but he didn't expect to have such an arrangement for him.
He stood up and said to Feng Niang, "Investigate all the people under your command, and don't let anything wrong, but if there is something wrong, tell me immediately."
That's exactly what Feng Niang meant, what he was waiting for was Yun Chi's arrangement, upon hearing this, she knelt down on one knee, "Yes"
