Chapter 96 Good Luck

Gu Huaiyu knelt outside the Qinzheng Palace to admit his fault. The queen was heartbroken. Her little Jiu was only three years old!

The emperor said with a dark face: "I always thought you were steady and asked you to take care of Xiaoxiao. But you lost her!"

The emperor had never been so worried about a person. If only Huai'an was lost, it would be fine. But it was Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao, who was related to the fate of the Great Shuo Kingdom!

Emperor Xiaode felt that the coffin of his ancestors could not be closed. At any time, they would get up and find him to punish him.

Pei Yuan was severely beaten by Old Madam Pei: "It must be you who caused the trouble, right? The other children are so good, the prince, Tang Yongning, which one is not stable and serious? You must have scared them and let Xiaoxiao go to play, right!"

Pei Yuan felt so wronged: "I know Su Xiaoxiao is too young, I wanted to go for her, but people wouldn't let me. Su Xiaoxiao insisted on going by herself! Grandma, I was almost lost, can you please stop beating me!"

Old Madam Pei whipped a few more times: "I would rather it was you who was lost! Xiaoxiao is so pitiful, she was lost just after she recognized her great-grandmother. Old Madam Tang must be so sad!"

"No, grandma, wouldn't you be sad if I lost you?" Pei Yuan was also anxious, but it was not his fault. In the past, when he was beaten, grandma was the first to protect him. This was the first time that grandma did it herself.

Everyone looked at him coldly, and no one spoke up for him.

Li Yutang was not much better. He had been confused for so many years and finally recovered. The eldest princess and her husband wanted to hold him in their hands and pamper him, but this time, they were also angry.

"Yutang, you took Xiaoxiao away from our house, so you should be responsible for her. How could you let her get lost? Even if she had to get lost, you should have stayed with her. Why did you let Huai'an follow her? Look, how can I explain to Wanyue and the Queen now!" The

eldest princess was so anxious that she sent all the guards, servants and maids in the princess's house away, and she felt guilty.

The prince consort supported her and advised her: "Don't worry, the inspection at the city gate is very strict, Xiaoxiao will definitely not be able to leave the city! You just got pregnant, don't get angry!"

"If Xiaoxiao can't come back, how can I have the face to have another child!"

Tang Yongning was not punished. Everyone in the Tang family was busy looking for someone and no one cared about him.

But he felt guilty. He could see clearly that the troupe was not normal, but why did he let Xiaoxiao go because of her temper? He should have stopped her.

Zhao Wanyue was lucky at first, thinking that Xiaoxiao would be found sooner or later because she was protected by Xiaohong.

But time passed by without any clue. The troupe just disappeared out of thin air. She felt more and more that those people came for Su Xiaoxiao.

"Changhe, tell your mother again, why did Xiaoxiao insist on going at that time?" She was like a madman, pulling Su Changhe and asking again and again.

Su Changhe felt worse looking at her mother like this than being beaten or scolded.

Su Lingxi comforted her mother, but in fact, her eyes were swollen from crying.

The whole capital was looking for someone, but there was no clue.

Some people started to talk nonsense again: "I think it's not good that the emperor doted on that little girl Xiao so much. A baby can't stand such great favor. Things will turn against each other when they reach the extreme. I think this child will never come back!" "

That's right, when offering sacrifices to the heavens to pray for rain, she peed on the altar. Although she was small, she offended the gods after all!"

Su Xiaoxiao was so favored at the time, and now she is being trampled on so badly. People say all kinds of things about her. In a word, it's rare for Su Xiaoxiao to come back.

Just when everyone was at a loss, the capital shook three times.

The destined lady hasn't been found yet, is there going to be an earthquake in the capital?

The emperor immediately summoned Cheng Xingzuo, the chief of Qintianjian, and asked him to predict the fortune.

After the divination, Cheng Xingzuo didn't even dare to speak. Is this divination really accurate?

"My dear Cheng, what do you think?" The emperor couldn't wait.

Cheng Xingzuo shuddered: "Your Majesty, according to the hexagram, it is very auspicious. There is abundant purple energy in the southeast direction, which is a sign of great wealth and honor!"

The emperor was furious: "I asked you whether there is an earthquake and whether Xiaoxiao can come back safely. You told me that she will be rich and powerful. I think your job as a supervisor has ended!"

Cheng Xingzuo felt wronged. This is what the hexagram said.

He explained tremblingly: "From the astronomical phenomenon, the movement in the capital just now does not seem to be caused by a hole in the ground, but seems to be man-made. However, I can't figure out who has the ability to make the capital shake so much!"

Not long after, someone reported that Longmian Mountain in the southeast of the capital suddenly collapsed, and the entire mountain was razed to the ground. Fortunately, there were no residents around the mountain, and local officials had gone to check it out.

The emperor rubbed his temples. Xiaoxiao has not been found yet. Why did Longmian Mountain suddenly collapse?

Gu Huaiyu, who was kneeling beside him, muttered in his heart, southeast, good luck, is it possible that Su Xiaoxiao and Gu Huaian are in Longmian Mountain?

He told the emperor about his guess, and the emperor thought it was unlikely. The city gate was blocked, and how could the people who took Su Xiaoxiao away run so far?

Cheng Xingzuo, who had been hooking, mustered up the courage and said, "Your Majesty, there is indeed an unstoppable noble aura in the southeast direction. Your Majesty should send someone to investigate!"

The emperor was finally persuaded. He had long wanted to leave the palace to find Xiaoxiao, but due to his status, he could not act recklessly. Now it was a good excuse.

"Then let's go and take a look. This time I will go out of the palace in disguise and call Tang Yanjun and Pei Mingliang. After all, their sons are also involved."

After all, the emperor felt guilty. He lost someone else's treasure. A few more people would be braver.

Tang Yanjun and Pei Mingliang naturally did not delay at all and waited outside the city early.

Zhao Wanyue met the prince and asked anxiously: "Is there any news about Xiaoxiao?"

Gu Huaiyu had to tell the truth: "There is no definite news yet, but something unusual happened in Longmian Mountain, and Cheng Jianzheng said that there is a lot of noble people there. We think Xiaoxiao may be there!"

Zhao Wanyue's heart fell to the bottom again. Where is Xiaoxiao?

Zhao Wanyue said resolutely: "I will go with you. Even if it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, I will go and see it in person!"

Su Changhe stopped her and said, "Mother, you haven't slept all night. You should rest at home. Besides, it is not convenient for you, a woman. I will go with the prince. Don't worry, I will bring Xiaoxiao back to you even if it costs my life."

The group traveled light and headed towards Longmian Mountain without stopping.

The emperor had not left the palace for a long time, but this time he went to look for Xiaojiu and Xiaoxiao. He couldn't help but sigh that being an emperor was really a pit.

During the morning court session, five of the six ministers asked him for money. Did he have a mountain of gold or something? The more he thought about it, the angrier he got!
