Chapter 171 Their Disaster



How could Hei Yan let the other party succeed?

Before Concubine Liu could reach Xiao Lichen, she was kicked away by Hei Yan.

"How did you become so cruel and ruthless that you even didn't spare your family!"

Xiao Deyi helped Concubine Liu up with a grim face, his tone full of extreme disappointment in Xiao Lichen's performance.

"Keep your woman under control. If she dares to poison my mother again, next time it won't just be a matter of crippling her son's hand. Come, take that worthless person to the prison for questioning. All the stolen money he got from selling official positions will be confiscated!"

Xiao Lichen ignored his father's gloomy face and gave orders to his men.

Hearing this.

Concubine Liu ignored the hatred in her heart and ran to several guards who were holding her unconscious son, stopping them from passing.

"You can't take my son away. Otherwise, you can only pass over my dead body."

Concubine Liu roared madly.

Hei Yan pushed Xiao Lichen up, not even looking at Concubine Liu, and said in a cold voice, "A prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as the common people!"

The other guards standing nearby immediately took action, carried Concubine Liu aside and made way.

Just like that, in front of Prince Yong Xiao Deyi, Xiao Haoran was taken away by his eldest son.

Concubine Liu cried so hard that the earth shook. The guards let go of her hands and she collapsed to the ground.

Xiao Deyi put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, his face full of anger.

After all these people left, leaving only Xiao Deyi and Concubine Liu, Concubine Liu lay on the ground, hugged Xiao Deyi's thighs tightly and cried, "Your Highness, you must save Haoran! He is your son, you can't just ignore him."

Listening to Concubine Liu's crying, Xiao Deyi thought of his eldest son's usual behavior and kicked Concubine Liu away.

"How dare you mess with me? Who told you to provoke the princess? You actually ignored my warning and secretly poisoned her. Very good, come, imprison Concubine Liu in the Buddhist hall and hand over the housekeeping power to the princess."

After Xiao Deyi gave the order, two figures suddenly appeared, took Concubine Liu away and locked her up.

Xiao Deyi stood alone in Xiao Haoran's yard, silently for a long time.

His eldest son has become a big shot and cannot be provoked!

Tonight, I saw a familiar shadow in my eldest son.

Forget it, let’s just leave it at that for now!

Tao Yuwei was unaware of the commotion in Prince Yong's mansion. She just felt very unhappy that she was woken up after just a few hours of sleep.

"Let me sleep a little longer!" She hugged the summer quilt and fell back on the bed without opening her eyes.

Seeing her like this, the maid Yunxiao leaned over to her ear and said anxiously, "Princess, the two eagles have returned."

The two maids knew that she had placed a message on the legs of the two eagles. When they saw the two eagles flying back, they would of course inform the princess as soon as possible.

"What? It's back! That's great! I'll go to the backyard now. Yunxiao, go to the kitchen and bring back some mutton strips. Feed them to the two eagles!"

Tao Yuwei's bad mood when she woke up suddenly disappeared.

He opened his eyes, got up quickly, washed up quickly, and ran to the backyard.

Sure enough, two eagles were standing on the branches, waiting for her arrival.

Seeing her appear, two eagles flew onto her shoulders, causing Tao Yuwei to shake several times before she could stand firm.

First, she unpacked the message written on the eagle's foot. It was written to her by her eldest cousin Wu Hanmo. It said that he was fine and there was no need to worry about him. He would arrive in the capital at noon today.

When she untied the letter from the other eagle's leg and unfolded it, she found it was the same letter she had written.

Without asking, she knew that her elder brother Tao Zipeng must have been missing.

"Thank you for your hard work. When you were looking for the two brothers, did you notice anything unusual around you?"

Tao Yuwei put away the message and asked the two eagles on her shoulders.

When we came back, we saw a large group of people and horses, rushing all the way towards the capital.

After hearing this, Tao Yuwei thought about it and felt that these people were probably the ones her grandfather had sent to protect her two brothers, but they showed up for some unknown reason.

She will know when those people return to the capital.

[By the way, my eldest cousin returned to Beijing. Did he bring a woman with him?]

The eagle in charge of searching for Wu Hanmo flashed his eagle eyes and said, "Woman? I didn't see any other women around your cousin. He was surrounded by men."

[That's good. Perhaps the plot has changed. The fact that that woman hasn't appeared is a good thing for General Weiyuan's Mansion!]

Tao Yuwei chatted with the two eagles about some details of their search.

No one got any clue about Tao Zipeng.

Tao Yuwei felt a little depressed.

I don’t know where my brother is?

She decided to help the third princess and her eldest cousin avoid their disaster. If her eldest cousin had not returned yet, she would take people to look for him personally.

At this time, Yunxiao and his men had already brought the mutton strips.

Tao Yuwei treated the two eagles to some meat, and she went to find Wu slowly.

"Mom, is my cousin coming back today?"

In the mansion, Tao Zhihong had already gotten up early to attend court, while his second brother Tao Zixing lived in the Imperial College and usually did not go home.

As soon as Tao Yuwei entered the door, she sat down at the dining table.

Mrs. Wu knew her daughter's abilities and must have gotten the news. She nodded absentmindedly, "Yes, I'm planning to go to General Weiyuan's mansion soon. Do you want to come?"

Tao Yuwei took a bite of the crab meat bun and thought for a moment, "You go first, I'll go to the palace first."

My cousin came back a day earlier than what was said in the book, but there is still no news from the third princess.
