There has been no news from Qingtian. Not only Qin Hexuan and Princess Rui are worried, but the Ye family has been as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
Old Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye had fainted from crying several times, and the children had cried until their voices were hoarse.
The eyes of Mrs. Ye Er and Mrs. Ye San were also red and swollen.
At this time, Shao became the calmest adult in the room.
She asked someone to call a doctor to come and keep watch, fearing that something might have happened to other people in the family before Qingtian was found.
Mrs. Ye woke up in a daze. Before her eyes were fully open, she started calling Qingtian's name.
Shao felt sad when she heard this and stepped forward to hold her hand.
"Sister-in-law, please cheer up, otherwise when the child is found, it will be so painful to see you like this!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Ye, who was originally weak, suddenly became much more energetic. She supported herself on the bed and sat up and said, "Yes, I can't do this. I still have to go find Qingtian!
"If Qingtian couldn't see me, he must have had a bad sleep last night."
Mrs. Ye said this and was about to get up and walk out.
But as soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and his legs went weak.
If Shao hadn't supported him, he would have fallen out.
"Sister-in-law, how long have you not eaten?"
Shao saw that Mrs. Ye was not in a good state and asked anxiously.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye frowned and recalled that the last time she ate seemed to be yesterday morning.
After breakfast yesterday morning, I started working on the restaurant opening and had no free time at all at noon.
After waiting for a long time for all the guests to leave, I thought I could have something to eat and rest, but then I found out that Qingtian was missing.
Now that her daughter was missing, Mrs. Ye had no mood to eat.
I calculated that I haven't eaten or drunk anything for more than ten hours.
Shao originally thought that Mrs. Ye’s weakness was due to excessive grief and lack of energy.
After hearing this, she realized that he was hungry. She couldn't help but say, "No one can endure such a long time without food or water!
"Sister-in-law is so heartbroken, I can't believe how could my brother not take care of her..."
When Shao said this, he suddenly looked around and found that Boss Ye was not in the room at all.
"Where is my eldest brother?" Mrs. Shao turned around and asked Mrs. Ye Ersao.
"He was called out just now. He was told that Prince Rui wanted to see him."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye immediately raised her head and asked, "What does Prince Rui want to see him for? Is there any news about Qingtian?"
This was what Boss Ye thought when he was brought before Prince Rui.
But Prince Rui kept asking about Qingtian's situation.
From birthdays and ages to habits and preferences, it can be said that no detail is left untouched.
At first, Boss Ye answered seriously, thinking that these were the information he needed to know in order to find Qingtian.
But the more I listened, the more something seemed wrong.
"I heard that your family fled from outside the Great Wall?"
"That's right." Boss Ye nodded.
"You two look quite old, is Qingtian your only child?"
Prince Rui was used to being in a high position, and he thought he had asked very tactfully, but in fact, to Boss Ye, it still sounded very offensive.
However, the identities of the two parties are completely different, so even though Boss Ye feels uncomfortable, he doesn't dare to get angry.
Thinking that the Qin family had long known that Qingtian was not their biological child, he did not hide anything from Prince Rui. "To be honest, my wife and I have been married for many years without having children. Qingtian was rescued from someone on the road while fleeing famine. Madam Qin and Young Master Qin both knew about this, so I will not hide it from you.
"Even though he is not our biological child, my husband and I have always treated him as our own and loved him as dearly as if he were our own.
“Since we came to the capital, we haven’t told anyone about Qingtian’s life story because we don’t want others to say anything they shouldn’t say to her.
"My family has never treated Qingtian as an outsider and they all love her very much..."
Boss Ye became a little angry as he spoke.
He didn't know what Prince Rui meant by asking these questions.
Just because Qingtian is not their biological child, does that mean they don’t have to rush to find someone?
Little did he know that Prince Rui's heart was also beating wildly at this moment.
He had already had some doubts before.
According to the investigation during this period, all the clues point to the fact that the daughter was most likely taken outside the Great Wall.
But the world outside the Great Wall is so vast that I don’t know where to look for it.
During this period, Prince Rui not only sent guards from the palace out of the country to look for clues, but also wrote a letter to his father-in-law, hoping to use General Wen's power outside the country to find his daughter.
It’s a pity that after such a long time, no reliable news has been sent back from either side.
Prince Rui, unable to contain his excitement, found several groups of civilians who were going out of the mountains to look for mountain products, and paid them to help inquire about his daughter's whereabouts in the villages deep in the mountains and forests.
So when he learned about Qingtian's age and that she came from outside the Great Wall, and thought about the fact that she looked 70% to 80% similar to his wife, Prince Rui couldn't help but think that even if it was a coincidence, there were too many coincidences.
Could Qingtian be the daughter he has been looking for for a long time?
But seeing the Ye family's worry about Qingtian, especially the unconcealable anxiety of Ye Lao Da and his wife, he became hesitant again for a moment.
Now that he had finally confirmed with Boss Ye that Qingtian was his adopted daughter, Prince Rui's heart began to beat wildly.
"Does Qingtian have..."
Just when Prince Rui was about to inquire further about whether Qingtian had any birthmarks or something like that, someone suddenly entered and said, "Your Highness, I request to see you. I have news about the Princess Consort."
