[Chapter 264 Chapter 264 Madam also... wore it? ]

It wasn't long before her family discovered that Mrs. Shen was missing.

Because of the secret of the white jade plate, Madam Shen does not allow anyone to stay in her inner room now.

Apart from Prime Minister Shen who could come and go freely, even her closest maidservant was not allowed to enter without permission.

Therefore, the old lady did not leave the house this morning, and the maids thought that she was sleepy and overslept, so no one dared to go in and call her.

Even when the eldest and second sons' families came to pay their respects, the maids just brushed them off by saying that the old lady had not woken up yet.

It was not until the sun was almost overhead that the maids felt something was really wrong and started knocking on the door.

Then he knocked for a long time but no one answered, so he got panicked!

Because the old lady had given a death order at the beginning, even if the maids panicked, they did not dare to enter the house. They just went to the outer courtyard and sent people to find Prime Minister Shen.

At the same time, he went to look for the second son, Shen Junshan, who was not on duty today and was resting at home.

Chen Junshan usually couldn't enter his mother's inner room.

But that's normal.

After all, he is his mother's biological son. When he heard that his mother was in trouble, he naturally rushed in first!

As soon as I entered, I found that there was no one in my mother's room.

Shen Junshan was also confused.

But he didn't think elsewhere.

The main thing is that he would never have thought that his own mother also wore it!

Shen Junshan’s first reaction was that there was a thief in the house.

But I checked all the windows and doors inside and outside the house, but found nothing.

Later he thought that maybe his mother was out for something and didn't want to make it public.

But the carriages and horses were all there at home, and there was no missing servants or maids, so this idea was obviously impossible.

Just when Shen Junshan racked his brains to figure out why his mother disappeared for no reason, Prime Minister Shen and Shen family's eldest son Shen Junyuan also received the news and hurried back.

The father and his two sons stood in the inner room, and for a moment no one could tell what was going on.

As the first person to break into the house, Shen Junshan naturally had to tell about his discoveries.

He said to Prime Minister Shen: "My son checked the house inside and outside and found nothing suspicious. He also ruled out the possibility of an outsider intrusion.

When my son came in before, the room was tidy and there were no signs of a fight.

I also asked the maids and servants who were guarding outside, and they said that they saw candles lit in the room in the morning and heard the sound of my mother getting up.

But……"

He looked towards the bed with the curtains drawn.

But, my mother just disappeared for no apparent reason.

The eldest son, Shen Junyuan, followed his second brother's gaze and looked towards the bed.

The quilt on the bed had not been made yet, and it was obvious that the mother had not called the maid in yet this morning.

Then his eyes fell on the white jade plate placed on the spread quilt, and he couldn't help but frowned.

Chen Junyuan knew that the jade plate was A'niang's lifeblood, so it would be kept well and no outsiders were allowed to touch it.

If the situation wasn't special, he didn't think his mother would just leave the plate on the bed without even putting it away.

What Shen Junyuan could think of, Prime Minister Shen naturally thought of as well.

He pointed at the jade plate and asked, "Have you told A Yao about this?"

Shen Junshan hesitated for a moment and said, "No. A Yao should be about to give birth, and I'm afraid she will be too worried if she knows."

His words made Prime Minister Shen hesitate.

He walked over and touched the white jade plate with his hand, and for a moment he was a little undecided.

Although an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, he quickly suppressed it.

After all, even Prime Minister Shen himself couldn’t believe it.

He didn't want to believe it either.

But what else could it be?

Prime Minister Shen wanted to write a letter to ask his daughter.

In the final analysis, apart from this, Prime Minister Shen could not think of a second possibility for his old wife's disappearance.

But as the second son said, he was afraid that if it was not what he thought, he would disturb his daughter again.

Another point is——

Prime Minister Shen himself could not accept this possibility.

His daughter was gone just like that, and it’s impossible that his wife, who had been with him for decades, would also disappear!

Just as Prime Minister Shen was touching the white jade plate, his emotions surging and his heart in turmoil, a note suddenly appeared in the jade plate.
