The General's Honored Lady

Chen Siyuan was the legitimate daughter of a merchant family. After marrying a household slave, she poured all her efforts into helping him become a minister. In return, her husband and her paterna...

Chapter 406 Something Happened

"Cousin, Fifth Princess Consort, you'd better keep your distance a bit," Wen Tao said after his initial shock.

He pursued business, but compared to the safety of his family, it was far less important.

"I know." Chen Siyuan didn't want to doubt it. She felt that the Fifth Princess Consort wasn't that kind of person, but the Fifth Prince and the Fifth Princess Consort were husband and wife, and many things were hard to explain.

For their own good, they shouldn't have too much contact.

Suddenly I remembered that the Fifth Princess Consort had said yesterday that if I needed to find her, I should go to the hot pot restaurant.

At this moment, Chen Siyuan suddenly realized that the Fifth Princess was reminding her, but she had not noticed.

Qiao Zhen said that someone would target Qiao Yuchen, and the Fifth Princess Consort said that the Fifth Prince and the Third Prince had met.

On the surface, the only one in the capital who can rival the Seventh Prince is the Third Prince. Now that Qiao Yuchen has gone to suppress bandits and eliminate corrupt officials, his return will drastically change the situation in the capital.

Now that the Emperor is in poor health, if the Seventh Prince is implicated in something, then the Third Prince will have nothing to do with it.

All I know is that the Third Prince won in the end, but I don't know the specifics of what happened. As for the current situation, I can think of what the Third Prince can think of as well.

Suddenly, she remembered the letter she had seen the night before. She had always felt something was off about it, and now she finally understood exactly what was wrong with it.

She kicked Wentao off the carriage halfway there and rushed back to the General's Mansion in the carriage as fast as possible.

Upon arriving at Beiyuan, Chen Siyuan immediately took out all the letters.

After taking a closer look, I confirmed my thoughts.

My heart started pounding.

Qiao Yuchen is really in trouble.

The so-called letters were all written in advance, just waiting for one letter to arrive each day.

Looking at the letter in front of her, Chen Siyuan made a decision: she would go to Fuzhou immediately.

Chen Siyuan is a woman of action; if she has an idea, she will do it.

Before leaving, she had a few things to take care of.

She ignored food and drink and worked tirelessly to draw pattern designs for sample garments.

For no other reason than that this shake-up in Beijing is a money-burning activity for everyone involved.

Even if she leaves, the shops on Nanguan Street must continue to generate income for her.

She didn't want to be hampered by money issues when she returned, nor did she want to be on the losing side.

Furthermore, Qiao Yuchen clearly anticipated something when he left and had already made his own plans. If he were to act recklessly at this point, he might just fall into someone's trap.

Staying calm is also very important for me right now.

After drawing blueprints for a long time, Chen Siyuan was exhausted. The amount of love she wanted was far from what she had hoped for.

She decided to go outside for a walk, clear her mind, and draw more blueprints.

Chunlan and Chunping followed behind.

The General's Mansion has a unique charm at night.

As she watched, Chen Siyuan's uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

Qiao Yuchen is the only son of the General's Mansion, and he absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble.

Besides, is such a large general's mansion really useless?

General Qiao is clearly of one mind with the Emperor. Even if the sky were to fall, someone would hold it up. In the General's Mansion, Madam Qiao is not as weak as she seems.

She was quite certain that if something really happened, the General's Mansion wouldn't be so quiet.

One should not lose one's sense of proportion because of one's own judgment.

As I walked and thought, a familiar figure suddenly walked past me.

Chen Siyuan stood still.

With a head of white hair, and still such a tall and slender figure, there was no one else but that person.

How did Tao Yifan end up at the General's Mansion?

Judging from the direction Tao Yifan went, he should be looking for General Qiao.

What exactly happened?

Tao Yifan is the Third Prince's man, so how did he end up at the General's Mansion?

Unexpectedly, Tao Yifan left in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Not long after, they heard commotion coming from the central garden, and then from the western garden.

She stood there, watching as many people began to get busy.

Chen Siyuan's brow twitched.

“Young Madam, this…” Chunping also saw it and felt that something was amiss.

Chen Siyuan immediately raised her hand to stop her from saying what she was about to say.

Soon he returned to Beiyuan with Chunlan and Chunping.

Standing in Beiyuan, Chen Siyuan put her hands behind her back, looked up at the night sky, and muttered, "Black Hawk."

Black Hawk arrived quickly. "Where is he? Any news?"

Chen Siyuan was quite certain that Qiao Yuchen was in danger, but she didn't know exactly what had happened.

Black Hawk stood still, pretending to be confused and remaining silent.

"Yang Lei—" Black Hawk didn't speak, so Chen Siyuan turned around and called out again.

Yang Lei arrived soon after.

Judging from Yang Lei's appearance, he seemed to have been crying. "What happened to him?"

"They've gone missing," Yang Lei said, lowering his head.

'What's the matter with the letter?' Chen Siyuan asked, staring at Black Hawk.

He delivered all the letters; I'm sure he knew that.

"The master wrote it in advance." At this point, it was impossible to hide it anymore. Besides, Black Hawk couldn't stay still any longer. He wanted to fly over immediately, but because of the master's orders before he left, he could only stay here.

Does he know anything about me?

Black Hawk knelt down immediately. "Yes." Not wanting to hide it, he replied to his master almost every day.

"Okay, write a letter over there and tell them I'm dead."

Black Hawk was surprised. Yang Lei also knelt down. Chunlan and Chunping were so frightened that they shed tears. How could such words be said so carelessly?

Death, what a serious problem.

At this moment, Chen Siyuan was already planning to leave the next day, so naturally, it would be best for her to get into trouble and leave.
