The cause was that the neighbor Zhou Laoer found that the neighbors rarely went out, especially the hostess, so he wanted to pry into their privacy. One day, after Feng Mian went out, he secretly took a ladder and watched from the wall.
Then he was shocked by Yue Lingyin's appearance.
Zhou Laoer was in a tight spot and had a bad idea in his mind. He wanted to sell Yue Lingyin and the baby in her belly to a brothel.
"Look, that's her. She's so beautiful, and the baby in her belly will definitely be good. The older one will make money for more than ten years, and the younger one will grow up soon. It's a sure-win business."
The brothel madam looked down from the ladder and saw that what Zhou Laoer said was true, and then began to plan.
Those who could become brothels all had their own connections, so when Feng Mian went out to buy things again, he was surrounded by people who insisted that he had stolen their money.
Feng Mian certainly did not admit it, and the two parties went to court. In the end, the man said that the silver had been found and it was just a misunderstanding. The county magistrate fined him a symbolic amount and let him go.
When Feng Mian returned, the door was wide open and Yue Lingyin was no longer inside.
He searched everywhere like a madman, and finally had no choice but to go to the authorities, suspecting that the people who framed him had set up the trap.
The county magistrate sat calmly, his head held high. "In court, evidence is required. What evidence do you have to prove that your wife's disappearance is related to them?"
"There's no evidence, but..."
The county magistrate slammed the gavel and said, "How can I judge a case based on your speculations when you come to court without any evidence?"
Feng Mian argued: "I'm here to report a case, just to share my suspicions. If someone goes missing within your jurisdiction, shouldn't you investigate?"
The county magistrate said impatiently, "How can I handle the situation if you keep looking for me every time someone goes missing? You should go back and see if she's been away without telling you, or if she's had an accident, or if she's run off with someone else."
Feng Mian had never felt so powerless before. He clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves and stared directly at the county magistrate with his cold eyes.
"What if I tell you that the missing person is His Majesty's woman? She is pregnant with the dragon heir and is about to give birth. If something bad happens to her, can you bear the responsibility?"
The county magistrate's half-closed eyes suddenly widened and he sat up straight: "What's the name of the person you're looking for?"
Feng Mian: "Yue Lingyin."
The county magistrate could no longer sit still. A few months ago, his superiors sent a portrait of a beautiful woman to the yamen, and specifically instructed that this was the person the emperor was looking for, and that his whereabouts should be reported immediately.
The lawyer took out the portrait from the inner room and unfolded it: "Is she the one you are looking for?"
"Exactly."
The county magistrate's cheeks twitched. "What are you all standing there for? Seal off the entire city and search every house for me. We must find this woman named Yue Lingyin."
"yes!"
Walking out of the yamen, Feng Mian's heart was chilled. In the end, he still had to seek help in the name of His Majesty.
…………
Yue Lingyin was tied up in the woodshed of the brothel. She was the first to discover the break-in, but because she was pregnant and her body was heavy, she was eventually caught.
Her stomach was cramping with pain, something was seeping out from her lower T, and a huge panic took over her heart. She had never felt so helpless.
"Is anyone there? Come quickly, I'm about to give birth..."
Xiaobai was very anxious in the system space, so he first gave the host a painless delivery pill. The labor process could not be interrupted. If no one helped, he would have to use some special methods.
Yue Lingyin's stomach pain was gone, but she felt confused. However, the bleeding did not stop, and spots of red soaked her dress.
The door of the woodshed opened, and the brothel madam was delighted to see the red color on her body. She thought it would be great if she was going to give birth sooner so that she could go out and entertain customers sooner. It would be best if she gave birth to a daughter who would inherit her mother's beauty and become her cash cow when she grew up.
The madam became more and more excited as she thought about it: "Come, find a midwife."
The women in brothels are of low status. In this county, there are very few midwives willing to come to brothels to deliver babies. Usually, they have poor skills and no business. This is the kind of person the brothel madam found.
"Tsk tsk, you're so beautiful, didn't your lover redeem you?"
Yue Lingyin said weakly, "They kidnapped me."
The midwife was stunned and looked at the madam.
Madam: "Do what you should do, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"Yes, yes, yes." The midwife laughed dryly: "Is the hot water ready?"
"Why hot water? Just cold water will do. The girls in the brothel aren't that delicate." The madam walked out, handkerchief in hand. "Her belly is so big, she might be pregnant with twins. Hurry up and save the big one first if necessary."
You can make money by raising an older one, but you have to raise a younger one for more than ten years, and you still don’t know whether it’s a boy or a girl, or whether it’s good-looking. This woman is the most beautiful woman she has ever seen, so please don’t let her die.
Feng Mian did not join the government in the search. He kept recalling the series of people and things he saw after Ling Yin disappeared. He suddenly opened his eyes, kicked open Zhou Laoer's door, and put the sword to his neck.
"Tell me, where did you take my wife?"
"What, what wife? I didn't do anything. I'm a good citizen."
Zhou Laoer's momentary guilty conscience did not escape Feng Mian's eyes. He blamed himself for being too flustered at the time and not noticing that something was wrong with Zhou Laoer earlier.
Without giving any explanation, he chopped off his arm with a sword, ignoring Zhou Laoer's screams and said coldly, "I'll give you another chance. Where did you hide my wife?"
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Zhou Laoer lay on the ground with a ferocious face. "It was the madam of Chunfeng Tower who ordered her to be taken away. This has nothing to do with me!"
"Why did the people from Chunfeng Tower arrest my wife? Did you leak the information?"
Zhou Laoer gritted his teeth and looked away.
