The fifth prince is missing.
After Chu Hong learned that his fifth son, whom he despised the most, had cheated on him, he ordered him to be beheaded on a chosen day.
Now, the people who should be in prison have disappeared from the prison.
Qin Songmo tightened his grip on his little daughter's hand. He looked up at Mingyue and said, "Go check on the Second Prince."
"By the way, the letter can be moved."
The letter referred to was the one that Li Shengyi used as an excuse to go to the palace to play with the twelfth prince, and ran to the Chengde Palace with the twelfth prince, and the letter was stuffed into the Chengde Palace by Shen Wangchen.
The most useful things come at the best time.
Now the fifth prince has defied the imperial authority and escaped from the Heavenly Prison without permission, which has already angered the current emperor.
But this is not enough, none of these are enough to kill the fifth prince.
Qin Songmo took his little daughter's hand and walked towards the study step by step without stopping. The instructions he said fell into the ears of Ming Yue behind him, and the latter answered yes.
The charcoal fire in the clay stove in the study had already been lit, the tea in the tea stove was boiling, and the room was filled with the fragrance of tea.
As soon as Li Shengyi stepped into the study, he saw Tangyuaner with a gold chain tied around her feet.
Unexpectedly, her father even brought Tangyuan over. She broke free from the slightly cold hand, lifted up the hem of her skirt and ran towards Tangyuan.
She ran so fast that as soon as Qin Songmo lowered his head, the little daughter beside him had disappeared.
Looking at his empty hands, he tightened his fingers and turned his head to look at Ming Yue beside him.
"His Royal Highness... uh, Master, how are you..."
Such a resentful look?
Mingyue didn't dare to say the rest of the words.
He just followed the direction his prime minister turned his gaze towards the study, and when he saw his young lady playing with a parrot, he raised his hand and scratched his head.
Some people are completely confused.
Isn't the little parrot the young lady's playmate? Today, when he returned to the mansion, he heard from the housekeeper that since the masters and mistresses were away from home, the parrot had not liked to eat and its temperament had become much duller.
So he took the initiative to bring the parrot over.
Why...I don't look very happy?
Qin Songmo raised his hand to signal him to shut up.
He stepped into the study, went to the desk, wrote a letter, put the paper into an envelope, and then handed it to Mingyue.
"Forward this letter to the prince. He knows what to do."
"There's nothing missing in the other courtyard, so there's no need to send everything here."
"Don't go to the other courtyard all the time unless it's necessary."
Qin Songmo rarely spoke much, and every word he said sounded like a thorn in Ming Yue's ears.
He wanted to raise his hand to clean his ears, but this behavior was really rude, so Mingyue had to bend down to take the envelope and turn away.
After Mingyue left, the courtyard was no longer as quiet as before.
Because there is another little ancestor in the study.
"Tangyuan'er, call me sister."
Li Shengyi held the pine nuts that Bao Mingyue had brought with her. She pinched a small one and put it to the parrot's mouth. When she saw it open its mouth, she immediately withdrew her hand.
The parrot was smart and became anxious when it saw the food in its mouth being taken away.
With a pair of white wings flapping, the parrot paced around the cage restlessly.
Li Shengyi noticed its actions and stopped forcing it, and put the pine nuts in front of it.
"elder sister!"
Just after Songzi entered, a voice that sounded like a human but not a human was heard in the study.
Li Shengyi's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the parrot in disbelief. "What did you just say? You called me sister?"
After she finished speaking, she turned her head excitedly to look at the man sitting at the desk, "Daddy, Tangyuan called me sister!"
The excited tone fell into Qin Songmo's ears.
Putting down the wolf-hair brush in his hand, he stood up and walked forward.
Picking up the birdcage on the low table, he casually picked up a pine nut and handed it to the cage. "Is he really that smart?"
"Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!"
The parrot quickly grabbed the pine nuts from his hand, swallowed them, and then opened its mouth and said "idiot".
The relaxed expression on Qin Songmo's face froze, and then he heard a burst of laughter in his ears.
He put down the birdcage in his hand and turned around to see his little daughter falling on the couch with laughter.
My tense mind of the past few days suddenly relaxed when I saw this scene.
He sat down beside the soft couch, called Lu Xing to get the chessboard, and handed the white piece in his hand to his little daughter before he slowly spoke.
"Shengyi, it's been a while since I played chess with Dad. Want to play two games?"
The days spent in the villa are always boring.
Li Shengyi usually loves to go out on the streets to watch the fun.
Winter is coming, and this year's winter is another cold one. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get through.
Li Shengyi glanced at the white chess piece in front of her. She smiled, raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and nodded in agreement, "Two games are fine. We've always played chess dryly, so how about adding some prizes this time?"
Qin Songmo stopped twisting the black piece. He looked at his cunning little daughter and asked, "What prize do you want?"
"If I win, I want Meng Jiuan to come back safely." Li Shengyi said crisply, "If I can't do that for the time being, I also want to go see him."
Shen Wangchen went south, and she had nothing to worry about for the time being.
But Meng Jiuan was in the capital, right under her nose, but she couldn't see him.
Thinking of the discouraging words the other party always said before, she always felt uneasy in her heart.
Unable to hear the person in front of her answer, she pulled her eyes back from the chess pieces, "Is it okay, Daddy?"
