Chapter 184 Concealment

"Madame Wang, Madame Wang, where are you? I'm Chunhua!"

"Why do I hear Chunhua's voice?" Nanny Wang said to herself.

"Madame Wang, you heard it right, it's Sister Chunhua who's here." said a clever little maid who served Madame Wang.

"Go and welcome your sister Chunhua in. I want to ask her why she's running around at this hour instead of staying at home to serve the master!"

"And you're still yelling and making noises. Have you absorbed all the rules you learned?"

Nanny Wang sat there with a stern face, looking quite angry.

The little girl didn't dare to say anything and ran out.

"Did something happen in the mansion? That's impossible. The eldest prince and the eldest princess have always been in good health, and the young master is also in good health."

"Chunhua, how can you be so loud and noisy? You must learn the rules again when you return home."

Nanny Wang was anxious and angry. She stood up and looked outside. Chunhua usually ran very fast, so why hadn't she come over yet?

"How is Nanny Wang feeling? What did the doctor say? Does she still need to take medicine?"

"Sister Chunhua, Nanny Wang is almost recovered. She hasn't needed to take medicine since yesterday."

"Okay, that's good."

When Nanny Wang heard the conversation between Chunhua and the little maid, she quickly sat down on the chair.

"Madame Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Chunhua misses you so much." Chunhua walked into the room and bowed to Madame Wang first.

"Chunhua, why don't you stay at home and serve your master properly? Instead, you come to this farm and yell and make noise! ​​I will go back and teach you the rules again."

Chunhua, Xiahe, and the other maids had all been taught the proper manners by Nanny Wang. Hearing Nanny Wang's angry voice, Chunhua's heart skipped a beat. She'd forgotten that Nanny Wang was the one who paid the most attention to rules.

"Madam Wang, you have been away from the mansion for many days. The master and the rest of us miss you. So you arranged for me to pick you up and bring you back to the mansion." Chunhua looked at Madam Wang with a playful smile.

"You're already grown up, but you're still so unruly. Even if you don't come back, I plan to go back home tomorrow."

"Madam Wang, it's been a long time since we last met. I want to have a few private words with you. All of you go and watch at the gate of the yard and don't let anyone in." Chunhua turned around and looked sternly at the little maids serving in the room.

Nanny Wang nodded, and the maids quietly left the room.

"It's only been a short time since I left the house. And you've already told me something private." Nanny Wang pointed at Chunhua's forehead with her finger in a reproachful manner.

"Mammy, you should come back soon. If you don't go back, we girls really can't hold on any longer." Chunhua cried.

"What's going on? What happened in the mansion?" Nanny Wang stood up anxiously.

"Mammy, some time ago, only one of the guards who escorted the young master back returned. He said that the young master disappeared in the second prince's fiefdom."

"What! The young master is missing! Such a big thing, and you didn't send anyone to tell me. You are really nonsense." Nanny Wang frowned angrily.

"How is the eldest princess? Is she okay?" Nanny Wang asked hurriedly.

"Mammy, it's not that we don't want to send someone to talk to you. It's the Grand Empress who doesn't want us to send anyone to disturb you. She said that you are old and sick, and she can't worry about you anymore." Chunhua said crying.

"When the Grand Concubine first learned that the young master was missing, she was so angry that she vomited blood and fainted."

"What? The eldest imperial concubine vomited blood! My poor young lady." Nanny Wang covered her chest in pain.

"Later, the eldest prince returned home, and the eldest princess also woke up. The eldest prince suppressed the news of the young prince's disappearance."

"Well done, eldest prince. The news of the young prince's disappearance must not be spread."

"The place where the young prince disappeared has been experiencing drought for two consecutive years. It is said that the Second Prince did not provide relief to the refugees, but instead drove them to other states."

"So, now the place is full of refugees fleeing famine. According to the guards who returned, it was the young master's wet nurse who took her away."

"But, after so much time, and the eldest prince sending so many people out, there is still no news of the young prince."

"The young master's wet nurse, I know that person. Her family members all work in the mansion, and she is very loyal to the young master." Nanny Wang thought for a while before sighing.

"Mammy, the Grand Concubine hasn't been in good health since she vomited blood last time. She also doesn't eat on time and spends most of her time in the small study copying Buddhist scriptures. The Grand Concubine is so thin now that you can hardly recognize her."

"You, where has your usual cleverness gone? The Grand Concubine told you not to come and inform me, so you didn't come? My poor young lady, my poor little prince!"

"Forget it, let's not talk about tomorrow. Go and tell the servants to hitch up the carriage now and we'll go into the city right away."

"Mammy, it's getting late. We probably have to travel at night." Chunhua looked through the window at the darkening sky.

"Chunhua, tell me honestly, did the Grand Concubine know when you came?"

"Mammy, the Grand Concubine doesn't know. I ran away secretly."

"That's fine, let's go into the city overnight."

"Okay, Mammy, we'll have a backbone now that you're back. The Grand Concubine hasn't listened to anyone's advice lately. If this continues, the Grand Concubine will collapse before the young master is found."

Chunhua wiped the tears from her face and smiled for the first time in a while.

"Okay, you're not that stupid. You actually remembered to look for me. Okay, stop crying. You're an adult. Be careful that the little girls outside don't laugh at you." Nanny Wang gently poked Chunhua's head with her finger.

"Oh, Ma'am. No matter how old I am, I am still a little girl in front of you." Chunhua said, hugging Ma'am Wang's arm.

"Alright, enough talking. Go and have the servants harness the carriage. I won't feel at ease until I see the Grand Concubine."

"Okay, nanny, I'll let them go and harness the carriage now." Chunhua took a few quick steps and walked out of the house.

"Hurry up and get the carts, we're going into town now. It's too late to eat now, so go to the kitchen and fill up some water and snacks for the journey."

"Okay, Sister Chunhua." The maids and servants brought by Chunhua all went to make preparations separately.

After such a long journey, the horse needs some grass and water. It will also take some time for the girl to prepare food for the journey.

Chunhua returned to the house only after she finished making all the arrangements.

"Mammy, have you asked the maid to prepare your clothes and personal belongings?"

"There's no rush for those. Just ask them to pack them up tomorrow and send them to the mansion. Besides, there's everything in the mansion." Nanny Wang waved her hand and said indifferently.
