Chapter 1061 He and she are both gone?
The two guards fell to their knees with a thud, and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, we are waiting for..."
"I told you to keep an eye on her, how could she disappear?!"
“This, this—”
The two were completely speechless.
They were just guarding the door. Even though the imperial concubine had been demoted to the cold palace and became a criminal, she was still an imperial concubine after all. They certainly didn't dare to go in to monitor her, let alone offend her easily.
In addition, she was injured and could not speak. Except for the time when His Majesty the Emperor entered her room, the two of them would make some noise. Otherwise, she stayed in that room very quietly, without any sound at all.
But I didn't expect that the quietness of this night would be——
They knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhu Feng repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I deserve to die!"
"You guys deserve to die!"
“…”
"If she falls into the hands of Prince Ning, if she is in danger—"
Zhu Feng was so angry that his eyes turned red and his blood rushed to his head. The familiar murderous intent immediately surged from the bottom of his heart, causing him to clench his fists.
He wanted to kill them.
However, the cold wind blowing in from the empty room suddenly made him regain a bit of calmness and rationality.
Killing people will not help.
Most importantly, he wanted to get her back.
At this moment, all he wanted in his mind was to get her back.
No matter what that woman had done or how she had contradicted him, now all he wanted was to get her back.
More importantly, we must keep her safe.
As long as she is safe, I will wait for her to come back and deal with her!
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and looked at the empty room. If someone came to take her away, there would definitely be noise. Even if she was powerless, she was not a woman who would surrender obediently. He was very clear about this after spending these days together.
The two men guarding her door were elite soldiers from the imperial camp.
No matter how slow they were, it was impossible for someone to enter the room and snatch someone away, as they couldn't hear any sound.
The only possibility is——
Thinking of this, Zhu Feng walked in quickly and immediately found that the sheets and quilt on the bed were torn into pieces. He frowned and walked to the window to take a look.
A rope made of twisted rags hung from the window frame.
Apparently, that's how she left.
Qin Ruolan also came in with her companions. Seeing this, her expression suddenly became complicated. She said softly, "So, she left on her own, and wasn't abducted by someone else."
Zhu Feng's eyes were as gloomy as the sky at that moment.
He said solemnly: "But why did she leave?!"
“…”
As soon as he said this, everyone around him fell silent.
Why did she leave suddenly?
Before, even though the situation had become so tense, she had no intention of leaving. He understood this very well. But, after what happened yesterday, she suddenly left?
Could it be that——
His eyes suddenly darkened and he turned to look at the people standing in front of him. At this moment, Wen Ye also walked up from downstairs. When he saw that they were all standing in the imperial concubine's room and the imperial concubine was gone, he was immediately shocked.
"this--"
"Wen Ye, what's wrong?"
Wen Ye couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He reached out and wiped his forehead, then stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I'm here to report to you that everything is ready."
"Then why are you so alarmed?"
"No, nothing."
As Wen Ye spoke, more sweat appeared on his forehead. But he was, after all, a straightforward general who only knew how to wield swords on the battlefield. He wanted to hide something, but before he could, the panic in his eyes was already revealed.
Zhu Feng stared at him and said solemnly, "Do you know that the crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by death?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Ye’s face turned pale.
Zhu Feng said again: "Speak!"
Wen Ye was helpless and could only whisper, "This humble servant didn't find Li Bushang early this morning."
“……?!”
Zhu Feng's eyes suddenly widened.
Li is not hurt?
He is gone.
Could it be that——
Suddenly, the scene from a few days ago appeared before him again. Li Bushang did not hide his concern for this woman even in front of him.
He and she are both gone?
This time, even Qin Ruolan was a little surprised.
Li Bushang is missing too?
Could it be that he really disappeared with Si Nanyan?
But why would Si Nanyan do this?
She was a little bewildered, but Lian'er, who was standing behind her, couldn't help showing a hint of joy in her eyes when she heard the news. If this was the case, then Si Nanyan's guilt would be completely confirmed, and - this crime was not framed by me, but it was you who behaved improperly and got entangled with other men, so you deserved it.
Thinking of this, she felt a little proud.
He whispered, "How could she do this?"
Qin Ruolan hurriedly scolded in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, she is not that kind of person."
“…”
"She must have her reasons for doing this."
Having said this, she took a step forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, she—"
Zhu Feng suddenly raised his hand to stop her from continuing, but the anger on his face disappeared at this moment, leaving only an indescribable coldness.
This feeling suddenly made Qin Ruolan feel a little uneasy.
Zhu Feng walked to the door, looked at the two guards kneeling outside, and suddenly said, "You guys are guarding here, has anyone gone in?"
"No, we are following the Emperor's orders and dare not let anyone in."
"That--"
Zhu Feng's eyes were as fast as lightning as he looked at the people around him. When his eyes swept over Lian'er and Xiyu, the two of them trembled suddenly, as if something was seen through them, and they lowered their heads involuntarily.
Zhu Feng continued: "Has anyone told her anything?"
Cold sweat rolled down Lian'er's forehead.
The guard thought for a moment and said, "No one came to talk to her. It's just that—"
"Just what?"
"It's just that," the guard hesitated for a moment, but seeing Zhu Feng's gloomy face, he said, "The two maids accompanying Madam Qin came to us and said that something big had happened outside and that Prince Ning wanted to take Ran Xiaoyu as a concubine, so we should be careful."
When Qin Ruolan heard them say this, his expression suddenly changed.
"this--"
Zhu Feng's eyes turned cold and he turned to look at them.
His eyes, originally sharp as a knife, were filled with murderous intent at this moment. Just one glance was as if he could shatter a person's blood and bones.
Lian'er and Xiyu were so frightened that their legs went limp. They quickly knelt on the ground and said repeatedly, "Your Majesty, please forgive us. We were just worried about the situation outside and came to say hello to these two brothers. However, we didn't say a word about the princess."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please understand clearly."
