Tears dripped onto the back of Emperor Qing's hand. Although they were cold tears, they felt as hot as boiling water.
Emperor Qing felt even more distressed. He raised his hand and gently wiped away Concubine Dong's tears. "Jiaojiao, don't worry, I've already sent someone!"
"If the young man rescued by the Huo family is really Dong Lang, they will definitely bring him back!"
"Also, didn't the Huo family also say that the boy is in excellent condition? His broken right leg has healed."
"Although I've forgotten everything, I think I've returned to a familiar environment. In my dreams, I even said I was 'Dong Lang'."
Emperor Qing tried his best to comfort Concubine Dong and told her everything he knew.
Concubine Dong forced a weak laugh, "Really?"
"Of course it's true! Don't worry, Donglang has suffered a lot, and I feel sorry for him too."
Emperor Qing continued to comfort his favorite concubine.
However, even if it was just sweet talk to coax a woman, Emperor Qing did not give in easily.
He only said "heartache" but did not mention "forgiveness" at all.
Therefore, once there is evidence that the Ninth Prince deliberately deserted the battlefield, Emperor Qing will hold him accountable for "disobeying the emperor's order."
Concubine Dong showed an expression of gratitude, as if she was a little woman who trusted her husband wholeheartedly.
"Your Majesty, you are so kind to us mother and son!"
She snuggled softly in Emperor Qing's arms, but her hands hidden under the quilt were clenched into fists.
Your Majesty only said that Donglang "suffered", but His Majesty did not mention why Donglang suffered or who made him suffer.
Also, Concubine Dong remembered that before she fell unconscious, she heard the eunuch report:
His Majesty has sent an embroidered robe envoy!
The Embroidered Uniform Envoys are a secret agency that collects intelligence and monitors officials.
If His Majesty really just feels sorry for his son and wants to bring the child back as soon as possible, he should send out his Qianniu Guards or Jinwu Guards.
But, neither of them!
His Majesty sent out his henchmen.
Emperor Qing is suspicious of Dong Lang and thinks that Dong Lang is deliberately pretending to have amnesia!
What's more, Emperor Qing might even suspect that Dong Lang is colluding with the Huo family!
Concubine Dong pretended to be shy and lowered her head and drooped her eyelids.
She could hardly contain her anger.
She had been the "true love" of Emperor Qing for more than ten years, and endured humiliation and hardship for him.
She asked for nothing else but that her son have a good end.
As a result, she endured it and didn't show any arrogance of a favorite concubine, but she still couldn't protect Dong Lang.
The carriage "accidentally" fell off a cliff!
ha!
You're lying to a three-year-old.
Concubine Dong knew that she was not a very smart person.
She is a little woman with beauty and talent.
But she had no ambition. She didn't ask her son to become emperor, she just hoped that the mother and son could have a peaceful life. Such a humble wish could not be fulfilled!
That's it!
Then she doesn't need to endure it anymore!
Donglang had died once, but this time he was lucky enough to escape from the bottom of the cliff and meet a kind person.
What about next time!
Who can guarantee that her Donglang will not be plotted against again?
besides--
Concubine Dong knew that her health was failing and she could not survive for a few more years.
She must make plans for Dong Lang before she dies.
Otherwise, she would die with regrets.
"You little fool, always saying stupid things. If I don't love you, who else should I love?"
Emperor Qing was very satisfied with Concubine Dong's easy coaxing and said sweet words to her as if jokingly.
Concubine Dong raised her head, and there was no more resentment and determination in her eyes, but instead her signature purity and gentleness.
In her charming phoenix eyes, there seemed to be only the shadow of Emperor Qing.
"His Majesty!"
Concubine Dong called out coquettishly, all of her tenderness and affection were revealed in her unparalleled beauty and endless charm.
Emperor Qing became more and more proud.
Well, for the sake of Concubine Dong, if Ru Qingcheng is not acting, I will spare him this time.
…
"A-choo! A-choo!"
Gu Qingcheng sneezed several times in succession.
She rubbed her nose and thought to herself: Tsk, who is scolding me?
Huoshui: ...Ha! You are quite self-aware.
Gu Qingcheng ignored Huoshui's complaints and began to think. It seemed that the news that the Huo family had picked up the ninth prince had spread throughout the capital.
Emperor Qing should have sent people to investigate.
I just hope that Wu Yanniang has left.
Gu Qingcheng had no doubt about the ability of the Embroidered Robe Messenger.
They are omnipresent and they unravel the mystery.
With just one clue, they can get to the bottom of the matter.
The embroidered uniform envoys did not dare to touch Huo Wuniang, but if they found out that there was also Wu Yanniang involved, Wu Yanniang would be in trouble.
Subsequent facts proved that Gu Qingcheng was not worrying too much.
The embroidered envoy sent by Emperor Qing tracked down the trail and finally found the small county town.
Fortunately, Wu Yanniang had already left with the young man.
The embroidered messenger wanted to continue investigating, but he had no clues.
"Didn't the shop owner confess? He said that the woman just happened to be traveling with the Ninth Prince, and there was no connection between them."
The key point is that the young man was a wandering orphan. The shopkeeper just wanted to get some free labor and took the young man in without looking for a guarantor.
Now, the young man said he went back to his hometown, but the shopkeeper didn’t even know where his hometown was!
