However, it also stated: "This is something I have never heard of before, and I am truly shocked. I do not know if it can be accomplished" and "We will know the outcome after forty-nine days."
Even so, it was a great hope for these parents who had lost their children. For a moment, the wailing stopped, and they all looked forward to the forty-nine days to come.
But the story of the little boy being abducted was far from over, because the Imperial Guards searched the entire mountain inch by inch but could not find any trace of the 'God Lord' they spoke of.
Hua Xiao, who had previously met the so-called "God," suddenly hanged herself in the Inner Court's prison.
At the same time, Cheng Wenli, the Minister of Personnel, also suddenly hanged himself at home, leaving a suicide note. He said that he had committed a major case of cheating in the imperial examinations and knew that his sins were grave, so he would atone for his sins with his death.
However, Huo Chengche knew that this was absolutely related to that so-called "God Lord".
For a time, all leads ran dry, and the matter had to be put on hold.
However, the poor little boy who was kidnapped this time seemed to be almost unfazed.
Except for the first few days after he returned, he was always whining and wanted to stay in Zhuangyou's arms and refused to get down. After playing with his two girlfriends, Changyin and Wenlian, for two days, that crazy and mischievous little devil came back.
Xuandi seemed to have great faith in Luo Dangdang's success, and every few days he would take the little baby up the mountain, and no one could stop him.
At first, the Empress Dowager was worried, but after seeing the little boy go to play a few times, his face was rosy and his smile was bright and he was very happy, she gradually felt relieved.
Later, seeing how happy the little boy was every time he came back, and looking at the envious eyes of her granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law, she simply waved her hand and agreed to let Changyin and Wenlian go together.
Changyin has been in a bad mood these days. At such a young age, she has suddenly lost her parents and come to a completely unfamiliar environment. The Empress Dowager is really worried and can only let a certain carefree and happy little baby take her around to play.
As for Wenlian, she had been pampered by the Empress Dowager for four years but still hadn't recovered. However, after running around with a certain little cutie for a few days, her complexion visibly became rosy.
What could the Empress Dowager say? She could only let her continue running around with the little boy.
In just over a month, the three little bundles of joy became inseparable best friends, running around and playing wildly every day.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the forty-ninth day. The little baby and her two sisters went up the mountain to run around like crazy early in the morning.
Since they were going up the mountain, the little ones naturally brought their "friends" with them—the little one's chubby little dumpling, white egg, and the five snakes who were playing with her today: Banban, Qingqing, Diandian, Pangpang, and Juju.
That's right, these are five of the snakes that the little boy stayed with on the mountain that day. In the end, Huo Chengche gave these snakes to the unlucky Lord Liang, the Prefect of the Capital, who was "short of manpower".
These pythons were clearly not ordinary snakes; they were very intelligent and could understand human speech.
Seeing their potential, a certain prince had them trained alongside the tiger cubs so they could become the backbone of the capital's government in the future.
Meanwhile, the guards sent by the Empress Dowager kept complaining that they couldn't keep up with the little tyrant who ran wild as soon as he got to the mountain.
So Huo Chengche simply dismissed these useless and troublesome guards and ordered that every time the little boy went up the mountain, the Prefect of the Capital should send five snakes to accompany him and protect his safety.
And so, today it's the turn of these five unlucky snakes.
