Chapter 381: Third Prince, Can’t Wait Any Longer
Xu Yan's expression changed slightly: "Why didn't he disappear? Wasn't someone watching him the whole time?"
"In the blink of an eye, our subordinates, including the horses, more than ten people, all disappeared!" The subordinate shuddered, "Master, is this a ghost?"
Xu Yan scolded, "Don't scare yourself! Look around and see if you find anything else."
These people searched back and forth for an hour at the place where Liang Huanyu and others were, but they didn't find a single footprint. It was really weird.
"Sir, could it be the Luo family?"
Just from speculation, after all, Liang Huanyu captured the only young member of the Luo family, and I heard that his methods were quite vicious.
"Where's the evidence?" Xu Yan glanced sideways, his expression calm. "We've already left Youzhou. Do you think the Luo family, with their current strength, can take them away quietly?"
Shan Cong slowly shook his head, various people flashing through his mind: "Who could that be?"
Although Xu Yan also felt that the most likely family was the Luo family, even if he told others about it, he had to make others believe it.
"Dan Cong, prepare for martial law. The journey back to Beijing may not be safe!"
The facts were indeed as Xu Yan guessed. The news of Liang Huanyu's sudden disappearance reached the capital, and no one survived. To be able to kidnap people from the Liang family, he must be very powerful.
The current situation is that the Liang family's suspicions all fall on Xu Yan.
After all, Liang Huanyu's biggest target on this trip is him.
Now he is safe and sound, but Liang Huanyu is nowhere to be found.
"It's all your fault. I told you not to let Huanyu go so far away. Now that something has happened, you have to give the child back to me!"
Madam Feng shook Liang Zongwen like crazy, her eyes filled with hatred.
Liang Zongwen felt dizzy and pushed the person away. "Who are you asking me for? Is it my decision to let Huan Yu go to Guancheng? Since you don't agree, why don't you go to your father to plead for me?"
Liang Zhongling has always been the one who has the final say in the mansion, and now the Feng family is relying on the Liang family.
How dare Mrs. Feng go to him?
"Wow... my poor Huanyu..." Madam Feng covered her face and cried, "If anything really happens, I don't want to live anymore!"
Liang Zongwen frowned in disdain: "Shut up, can't you hope for something good?"
"What do you want me to think? Everyone in Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion is gone. Do you think those who kidnapped Huan Yu will be okay?"
Whenever she thought of Huan Yu suffering in a place where she couldn't see him, Mrs. Feng couldn't help crying even louder.
Liang Zongwen paused and said, "Wait, go to Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion and check the situation. What if someone comes back?"
Mrs. Feng stopped crying, tears welling up in her eyes: "Can you do it?"
"Whether it works or not, there's always a way..."
Before Liang Zongwen could finish, a servant's voice came from outside: "Master, something's wrong. The old man has fainted. Please go and see him!"
The Liang family has always relied on Liang Zhongling as its pillar. Now that Liang Zhongling heard the news that his grandson had also disappeared, he could not bear the blow and fell straight to the ground.
By the time the imperial physician arrived, everyone in the mansion was in a panic.
Liang Zongwen was busy dealing with people who came to inquire about the news. Madam Feng was also standing outside her father-in-law's room, looking into the room nervously.
After the imperial physician came out, Madam Feng hurried forward to ask.
"Madam, please rest assured. Liang Zhongling is simply overworked and angry. He'll be fine after a short rest!" the imperial physician instructed. "But be sure not to allow himself to be stimulated again, or he'll most likely suffer a stroke!"
The last two words shocked Liang Zongwen who had arrived.
"Imperial Physician, you must save my father. He must not have a stroke!"
The imperial physician still didn't know about Liang Huanyu's disappearance, and his face was serious: "I told you that as long as you take good care of yourself, you'll be fine. But if you don't follow the doctor's advice, even a god won't be able to save you if something really happens!"
Liang Zongwen's heart was beating so fast that he almost stopped breathing when he thought about the situation that the Liang family would face if something happened to his father.
No, the Liang family cannot fall like this!
After sending the imperial physician away, Liang Zongwen had not yet taken any action when the third prince suddenly showed up.
"Your humble servant greets the Third Prince!" Liang Zongwen saluted hurriedly.
The Third Prince was dressed in a moon-white robe, with a wisp of long hair hanging down from his temples, covering half of his face. His exposed eyes were smiling, and his expression was friendly: "Lord Liang, there is no need to be so polite. This prince heard that the Emperor was ill, so he came to visit!"
In the bedroom, Liang Zhongling lay drowsy on the bed, feeling dizzy and unable to open his eyes. He could still hear the conversation between his son and the third prince.
"Third Prince, after hearing what happened to my son, my father became like this. The imperial physician said that he must not be provoked again!"
Liang Zongwen's eyes were red as he looked at the Third Prince earnestly, "Third Prince, please help Huan Yu. It must be the Xu family who killed him!"
The Third Prince paused and glanced sideways: "Why do you think so?"
Liang Zongwen was about to speak when Liang Zhongling on the bed suddenly woke up with a cough.
"Father!"
Liang Zongwen hurried forward to check, and the imperial physician outside also came in.
The third prince sat nearby, watching people coming and going in the room. Liang Zhongling also gained strength under the imperial physician's acupuncture.
Half an hour later, the other people in the room left.
The Third Prince showed no impatience and slowly walked forward to sit in front of Liang Zhongling's bed.
"Let the Third Prince laugh at me!"
Liang Zhongling's voice was hoarse, and his old face could not hide his fatigue.
The Third Prince said, "Liang Zhongling is an important official of our dynasty. Your health is more important than mine. No matter what happens, I will help you in any way I can. Even if I am unable to do so, I still have my father here. Don't worry, Liang Zhongling!"
Liang Zhongling coughed deeply twice, quickly drank the water his son handed him, and then said, "Go see Dan Miao. She needs you to accompany her right now. Tell her that Huan Yu will definitely be found."
Liang Zongwen knew that his father and the third prince had something to discuss, so he wanted to stay. After all, the mansion was in such a state now. If he only relied on his father, how could his body withstand it?
But when Liang Zhongling looked at him, Liang Zongwen became speechless.
When only the Third Prince and Liang Zhongling were left in the room, the latter could no longer hold back and began to cough deeply.
The third prince's expression paused slightly. It seemed that Liang Zhongling's condition was not good!
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, but the topic returned to the previous one: "Mr. Liang just said that Huan Yu's matter was related to the Xu family. Is that true?"
He did send Tan Guangyi to keep an eye on it, but given the other party's personality, it would be good if he didn't cause any trouble.
A quarter of an hour later, Liang Zhongling felt his throat slightly better.
"Third Prince, my son and grandson have disappeared in the Northland one after another. If I say it was an accident, would you believe it?"
The Third Prince pursed his lips and asked, "Does Liang Zhongling know something?"
Liang Zhongling no longer concealed the truth at this time and directly stated the purpose of letting Liang Huanyu go to Youzhou.
He thought that even if he couldn't kill the kid from the Xu family, he would definitely not let him off easily. However, he didn't expect that in the end, the one who got hurt was his own grandson.
Liang Zhongling could not accept this result no matter what.
