Emperor Jingxuan already had a grudge against Su Cheng and his daughter. Now Princess Hui'an was missing and Su Daya was suspected of committing a crime. Eunuch Quan's words touched the heart of Emperor Jingxuan.

He immediately summoned Qin Canglan into the palace.

"Daya would never do such a thing! Kidnapping a princess? My precious granddaughter would beat up anyone she disliked on the spot. Why would she have to do it secretly? This is like taking off your pants to fart. It's a waste of time!"

Qin Canglan absolutely believed in his granddaughter. Why kidnap her? Just beat her up! Emperor Jingxuan made him so angry that he fell backwards.

What does it mean to beat someone up on the spot just because you don't like him?

Hui'an is his daughter, a princess of a country. According to Qin Canglan's opinion, he can beat her whenever he wants? Emperor Jingxuan was so angry with Wei Ting that he was numbed by the dizziness. Qin Canglan choked again and was about to vomit blood.

Empress Xian also heard about Hui'an's disappearance and came to the imperial study crying.

Her tears were real this time.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you must quickly bring Hui'an back..."

"I will, my beloved concubine, please return to the palace first."

Concubine Xian fell into Emperor Jingxuan's arms, crying out of breath: "Your Majesty...I heard about it...was it Su Daya who did it?"

Emperor Jingxuan opened his mouth: "This matter..."

Qin Canglan said, "Hmph, your majesty, please be careful with your words! Princess Hui'an is missing, and I feel sad for you, but what does this have to do with my granddaughter?"

Concubine Xian said: "Huian had a quarrel with her and then disappeared!"

Qin Canglan chuckled and said, "I heard that the eunuch is also missing. Maybe he kidnapped the princess! Empress Xian, you have a traitor among you. Instead of reflecting on your own mistakes, you put the blame on others. Doing so will only make you miss the correct clues and harm Princess Hui'an!"

Empress Xian's expression changed: "You——"

For a mother who had lost her child, Qin Canglan's words were undoubtedly heartbreaking.

However, he was not just talking on purpose; he came to the conclusion after careful analysis.

"What do you mean?" asked Emperor Jingxuan.

Emperor Jingxuan did have some disagreement with Qin Canglan over the issue of military power, but there is no doubt that Emperor Jingxuan valued Qin Canglan's abilities.

Qin Canglan said sternly: "Your Majesty, there are two palace maids around Princess Hui'an, why is Taohong the only one who is not missing? If my target is the princess, I will only kidnap the princess, and there is no need to kidnap a eunuch."

Empress Xian was stunned and said, "Perhaps... they want to leave someone to serve Hui'an?"

Qin Canglan said calmly: "Empress Xian, the other party has already kidnapped people, do you still expect them to care whether there is anyone serving Princess Hui'an?"

Concubine Xian choked.

Qin Canglan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to guess that Princess Hui'an was abducted by that little eunuch!"

Emperor Jingxuan looked at Qin Canglan steadily: "Even so, it still cannot clear your granddaughter of suspicion. Find Hui'an, otherwise, I will punish her for the crime of harming a princess of a country!"

Emperor Jingxuan did not want to publicize the disappearance of Princess Hui'an, but the news still spread like wildfire.

It soon spread to the streets and teahouses.

"Have you heard? Something happened to Princess Hui'an! She was kidnapped by the eldest daughter of the Qin family!"

"Why did she kidnap Princess Hui'an?"

"Princess Hui'an was in love with Lord Wei and wanted to marry him to her husband. But His Majesty arranged a marriage between Lord Wei and Miss Qin. The princess was furious and went to pick a fight with Miss Qin. But Miss Qin was not a good person and she took the princess away on the spot!"

“Nonsense!”

A middle-aged man came over and stopped everyone talking in the teahouse.

The storyteller, who was speaking with great excitement, looked at him with dissatisfaction: "Who are you?"

Shopkeeper Sun waved the folding fan in his hand and said, "I am your uncle!"

Su Mo and Su Xiaoxiao went to the Dali Temple and handed over the broken pieces of the rolling pin and the poison needle inside to Xiao Chonghua and the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

Xiao Chonghua said solemnly, "The young eunuch is called Xiao Zhuozi. He came to Qixiang Palace two years ago. He is good at talking and smart, and is very popular with Hui'an."

Su Mo said: "A little eunuch doesn't have the courage to do something bad to the princess. There must be someone behind him."

Recently they have been investigating the White Lotus case, but since they found out that the dead people in the cellar were followers of the White Lotus, they have no new clues.

The Dali Temple Minister is almost numb. Now everyone he sees looks like a member of the White Lotus Sect.

Xiao Chonghua frowned. If it was really the White Lotus Sect that did it, then it meant that the White Lotus Sect had already expanded its influence into the palace.

Su Mo said sternly: "Hurry up and find Princess Hui'an and clear my sister's name."

Xiao Chonghua and the Dali Temple Minister hurriedly took people to look for him, and the Jingzhao Prefecture and the Imperial Guards were also dispatched.

Su Mo said to Su Xiaoxiao: "I'll take you back first."

The two got in the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Do you think it was the traitor who did it?"

Su Mo groaned and said, "It's not clear yet. I don't think the traitor would be so impatient as to attack you on the first day of your arranged marriage to Wei Ting. But——"

Su Xiaoxiao finished his words for him: "But if Princess Hui'an happens to come and cause trouble for me, this will be a godsend opportunity to deal with me."

To put it bluntly, the traitor may have wanted to take his time, but who can resist taking a bite of the fat meat that is delivered to the door? Princess Hui'an disrupted the traitor's rhythm and induced him to attack Su Xiaoxiao in advance.

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully: "It seems that his first target is me. That's right, I look easier to deal with."

Compared with Wei Ting, Qin Canglan and Old Lady Wei, she, who grew up among the common people, seems more like a soft persimmon that is easily bullied.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly.

In order to quickly wash away the dirty water thrown on Su Xiaoxiao, Su Mo also went to find Princess Hui'an.

As soon as he left, Su Xiaoxiao followed.

"Dad, let me ride your horse!"

"Slow down! This horse is very fast!"

Su Cheng was washing the three little ones' hair while yelling outside the house.

Su Xiaoxiao climbed onto the horse.

Phew, Master Wei teaches well.

She casually took out a map of the capital.

"Princess Hui'an took this road back to the palace. She disappeared here."

After noting down the route, Su Xiaoxiao put the map back into her arms.

She rode her horse to the scene where Princess Hui'an's incident happened.

This place has been investigated by the officials and there is nothing left.

Su Xiaoxiao was riding on the horse, and the moonlight made her shadow very long.

Her face was shrouded in darkness, but her eyes were as bright as icy blades.

"Come out."

She said lightly.

No one showed up.

She rode her horse a few steps into the alley.

Suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao raised her head.

A big net dropped from the sky——

Rolling around and acting cute to ask for monthly votes!
