Chapter 302 Missing.

…

The Zheng Mansion was quite lively today. Many officials, for the sake of Lord Zheng and Li Huaiyan, and of course more so Xiao Yuan behind Li Huaiyan, sent their daughters to join in the fun.

"I never thought that you would end up marrying Li Huaiyan. I was shocked when my mother told me that. I thought I had heard it wrong."

The one who spoke was the girl who had accompanied her at Duke Li's mansion that day. Of course, she was not the one who was slapped by Shen Anan, because that one did not come.

Zheng Yue'er was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which made her gentle face look even more gorgeous. When she smiled, her eyes were moving and she was full of charm.

"But I heard that he is not a man who is content with his daily life." She leaned over and whispered, "My eldest brother said that there is no courtesan in the brothels in the capital that he doesn't know. You must be careful when you marry him and never let those women in."

The girls in brothels are the best at seducing people. They have no sense of propriety or shame. When it comes to capturing men, ladies from wealthy families like them are no match for them.

"Don't worry." Zheng Yue'er adjusted the pearl flower on her head with a smile on her face, "He promised me that he would never go to that kind of place again."

"That's good."

The maid who was packing things nearby heard what her mistress said, glanced over, and shuddered for no reason.

"Where's the Madam? Hasn't she come yet?"

At this time, the bridal sedan from the Li Mansion should have arrived, but Lord Zheng and Madam Zheng had not shown up yet.

"Maybe he is trying to coax the young master. I will go and invite him now."

＊

"How is it, have you found the person?" Mrs. Zheng pulled Lord Zheng, stared with eyes wide open, and asked hopefully.

Lord Zheng shook his head, frowned tightly, and looked worried.

After hearing this, Madam Zheng rolled her eyes and fell backwards. The maid was so scared that she hurriedly supported her, dragged her to a stool, and pinched her philtrum hard.

Mrs. Zheng took a deep breath and said, "My son!"

She waved away the maid, rushed over and grabbed Mr. Zheng by the collar, "If anything happens to my son, I will die too."

"And those illegitimate sons and concubines in your backyard, don't even think about surviving."

He shook Lord Zheng and cried bitterly, "This is all your fault. You must have offended someone in the officialdom, otherwise how could my Ye'er be captured for no reason? Why are you still sitting here? Hurry up and find a way to save him. He is our legitimate son."

"Alright," Lord Zheng pulled away her hand that was grabbing his collar, angrily, "I have sent everyone out to look for her, what else do you want?"

"Look, look, look. We've been looking all night. Where's the person?" Madam Zheng screamed and collapsed on the ground. "Just give them what they want. Bring my Ye'er back first. He has been raised so delicately since he was a child. He must be scared."

"My son, why do you have such a hard life?"

Lord Zheng's eyelids twitched violently.

Looking at the entire Zheng Mansion, Zheng Ye is the one who lives the happiest life. I don’t know where she gets the nerve to cry.

"Today is Yue'er's wedding, and there are guests in the mansion. You should pack up first and go entertain the guests. Send Yue'er out first."

"Why are you going?" Mrs. Zheng yelled, "I can't find my son, so let's not get married."

"That's your own daughter too!"

Madam Zheng sneered, "Why are you pretending? Now that you know she is our daughter, before she hooked up with Duke Li, you were so cruel to send her to a nunnery!"

Lord Zheng was so angry that he almost fell over.

"Anyway, I don't care. Even if your entire Zheng family is put together, they can't compare to my Ye'er. You must mobilize all your power and connections to find her. If my Ye'er doesn't come back, you can forget about getting married today."

"Madman, you are a madman." Lord Zheng pointed at Madam Zheng, his face turning blue with anger. "That's Li Huaiyan, the favorite of the Fourth Prince. Do you want to kill the entire Zheng family?"

Madam Zheng's crying suddenly stopped, "Yes, my son-in-law is the Fourth Prince's man, so he must have a way to save Ye'er."

As she said that, she quickly got up from the ground and rushed out, scaring Master Zheng. "Where are you going?"

"You are a useless father and cannot save my son Ye'er. I will ask my son-in-law and the Fourth Prince for help. They will surely find a way."

"Idiot." Lord Zheng could no longer bear it and pushed Madam Zheng to the ground. Madam Zheng fell heavily to the ground, and her hair was messed up.

"You knew very well that the other party was most likely my enemy, but you went to find the Fourth Prince. Were you afraid that he didn't have enough leverage over me, so you delivered yourself to him!"

"I don't care, I can't care about so many things, I just want my Ye'er." She beat Lord Zheng's legs with her fists like a madman, her face full of tears.

"You are not allowed to go. If you dare to cause trouble for me, I will divorce you today and make Concubine Liu my wife. I have more than one son, Zheng Ye. Even without you and your son, my Zheng family will still have someone to carry on the family business."

Mrs. Zheng was startled and her tears flowed even harder, but she became much more obedient and did not dare to throw a tantrum anymore.

"You are such a heartless person. You actually gave up your son for your career and you want to divorce me?"

Lord Zheng looked at her coldly.

"Master, Madam, the time has come. The young lady asked me to come and see when the master and the madam will arrive?" The voice of the little maid came from outside the door.

Lord Zheng glared at Madam Zheng fiercely, full of warning, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and replied calmly, "We will be there soon, you go back and serve the young lady well first."

"Yes." After the maid left, Lord Zheng said to Madam Zheng, "Hurry up and pack up, and send the guests away."

"My Ye'er is missing. I don't have the time to take care of her."

"you--"

"Master, Master." The butler who was sent to find Zheng Ye shouted hurriedly outside.

"Come in quickly."

Mrs. Zheng's eyes lit up, and she stared at the housekeeper with hope, "Is there any news about my son?"

The butler pursed his lips and looked at Lord Zheng in embarrassment. Lord Zheng frowned and followed the butler out of the main house. He stood in the yard and made sure that there was no one around before speaking, "Who did it?"

"The fifth prince."

As soon as the butler finished speaking, Lord Zheng's expression suddenly changed and he froze in place.

After a while, he suddenly looked back at the room, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that Mrs. Zheng had not followed him out.

"The fifth prince sent someone to deliver this." The butler handed a small straw cricket to Lord Zheng to see.

Lord Zheng knew that the Fifth Prince would be dissatisfied with him because of this marriage, but he never thought it would come so soon and in this way.

"Don't say a word to my wife."

"I understand." If he had told the truth just now, his wife would probably have gone crazy by now and run to the Fifth Prince's Mansion to ask for someone.

Lord Zheng held the cricket in his hand, his eyes dark, "Let's finish the wedding first and send everyone away before we talk about this."

"I'm afraid that's not possible." The housekeeper frowned tightly, "The fifth prince... is waiting in the front hall."

"What?" Lord Zheng's head was buzzing.

He felt that he was standing between two boats, with one leg on each. If he was not careful, he would capsize into the turbulent river.

"The Fifth Prince, are you talking about the Fifth Prince?" A sharp voice suddenly sounded from the room. Madam Zheng stood up from the crack in the door and rushed out. She saw the cricket in Lord Zheng's hand at a glance.

"My Ye'er." She snatched it back, tears streaming down her face, "It was the Fifth Prince. He was the one who captured my Ye'er, right?"

"Shut up and keep your voice down." Lord Zheng scolded harshly, but how could Mrs. Zheng listen to him at this moment?

"It must be you. It was you who offended the Fifth Prince by eating here and sleeping there, pretending to obey him but actually disobeying him. That's why he captured my Ye'er. Go quickly, go and save Ye'er. If it really doesn't work, if he is really angry, just send Yue'er to him. Just don't hurt my Ye'er."

Lord Zheng wished he was deaf so he wouldn't hear her nonsense.

Send the moon to someone? Slap the Fourth Prince in the face, and then wait to be settled by him?

The fifth prince only captured Ye'er, but once the fourth prince took action, it would be the Yi clan! ! !

"I won't talk to you, crazy woman. Go back to your room. You don't have to go out to meet guests today."

"I'm not going. I'm going to save Ye'er. If you don't save my son, no one will be able to have a good life today, let alone get married."

Lord Zheng closed his eyes and said, "She is your daughter after all. You can send her away if you want. Are you going to treat her so badly?"

"Humph." Madam Zheng laughed coldly, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You're just a fence-sitter, you go with the flow. You're just afraid that it will hinder your career."

Zheng was pointed at by her, and his patience had reached its limit. "It's good for you to know that my official career carries the life and death of the entire Zheng family. If you continue to make trouble..."

Mrs. Zheng took a few steps back in fear because she saw a cold murderous intent in Lord Zheng's eyes.

After all, Zheng Ye is his only legitimate son. As long as he no longer affects the overall situation, he is still willing to pay the price to save him. Lord Zheng is afraid that Madam Zheng, the crazy woman, will really do something irreparable. After all, there are so many guests today.

Then he softened his voice and said, "The Fifth Prince is in our house. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to rescue Ye'er."

"I'll go with you." Mrs. Zheng said hurriedly, "Don't worry, I won't say anything. I just want to make sure how Ye'er is doing."

＊

The girl talked with Zheng Yue'er for a long time until the sedan chair from the Li Mansion arrived, but neither Lord Zheng nor Madam Zheng showed up.

Zheng Yue'er still had a smile on her face, but her eyes were slightly cold.

Today is her big day, but the two of them didn't even show up, embarrassing her like this?

The maid stamped her feet in anxiety, but she didn't dare to show it because there were guests around. "Young lady?"

I will go out later and say goodbye to my parents. If the master and the mistress are not around, what should I do? Will my future son-in-law be angry? Will he be dissatisfied with me? Now he hasn't even entered the house yet, and the master and the mistress are indirectly slapping the son-in-law in the face.
