"..." Bei Mingxuan was speechless after being confronted by the ghost doctor. He was indeed just talking and forgot that he was still in the yard. The key point was that he didn't feel cold.
At this time, Chang'an was always in his arms, and he didn't feel that Chang'an was cold, especially her hands, which were warmer than his own, but her cheeks were a little cold.
"Let's go back to the room." Bei Mingxuan was trying to get Chang'an's opinion. She knew that she was worried about Dongxue.
"I'll stay with you for a while, Dongxue," Chang'an said. "You can go back. We'll send her back to her mother and bury her with her. Dongxue also has a younger brother who got lost, but we don't know how to find him. I think he's worried about her."
"You know his appearance and characteristics."
Changan thought carefully, "There is a portrait, it should be placed in the general's mansion, but the person has never been found."
"I'll send someone to help you find it."
Where can you find a needle in a haystack?
Chang An did not answer Bei Mingxuan's words, but turned to look at the ghost doctor, "How is Gu Shijia?"
The ghost doctor curled his lips in disdain. "She lives alone in the Prince's mansion. No one dares to approach her. If anyone does, she immediately feels uncomfortable breathing. It seems that she is having a good time now. No one disturbs her, and she is peacefully nurturing her pregnancy."
"That's good."
"Why did you agree to let her keep the baby?" the ghost doctor asked. "Don't you hate Gu Shijia? She's bullied you since you were little. If it were me, I would make her watch the baby die in her belly."
Bei Mingxuan glanced at the ghost doctor calmly.
"The child is innocent." Chang'an glanced at him, "let alone the fetus in the womb."
"Besides, there's no fetus in her belly yet. It's just a piece of meat at best."
"How do you know that Chang'an was always bullied by Gu Shijia when he was a child?" Bei Mingxuan's question seemed casual, but only he knew that since the last time Fu Cheng told him that the ghost doctor called Chang'an the leader of the sect, he had doubts in his heart.
He just never found the opportunity to confirm it, and it seemed that he didn't want to know more.
The ghost doctor's eyes dodged a little, and he passed across Chang'an's face and muttered softly, "If you want to know, do I have to tell you?"
Chang'an was secretly sweating.
Bei Mingxuan saw that Chang'an had no intention of asking again, so he stopped asking and said, "Let's go back."
"Okay." Chang'an seemed to have forgotten what he had just said, that he would stay with Dongxue until she left.
The next day, before dawn, Bei Mingxuan had already returned to the palace prison.
Chang'an was still sleeping soundly.
With Bei Mingxuan by her side, she seemed to sleep more peacefully.
"Miss." It was Bai Lu's voice.
Changan was woken up, "Come in."
"News came from the palace," Bai Lu said, "The emperor is missing."
"..." Chang'an raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who discovered it?"
"It's the Queen Mother. Eunuch Cheng said that the Fourth Prince and the First Prince wanted to see the Emperor, but Eunuch Cheng stopped them, which alarmed the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother went inside, she found that the Emperor was gone."
"Fourth Prince, First Prince, Queen Mother?" Chang An got up. "Let me dress up. Let's go and take a look."
"Yes." Bai Lu served Chang'an and continued, "The left and right prime ministers also learned about the emperor's disappearance."
"When did the prince leave?"
"Before the sun rose again." Bai Lu thought for a moment, "Before the prince left, Fu Lin found Fu Xue'er, and the prince punished her by ordering her to be executed."
"..." Very surprised, "What did you say?"
"Nothing was said." Bai Lu added, "The prince didn't say a word to Xue'er, but gave Fu Lin a cup of tea to talk to Xue'er. Then, he slapped Xue'er on the head."
Chang'an remained silent, thinking to himself that no matter who it was, no one could tolerate betrayal. "A life is gone just like that. I often think that if I hadn't appeared before your prince and hadn't come to Prince Zhexuan's mansion, perhaps Xue'er wouldn't have come to this point."
Bai Lu looked at Chang'an in the bronze mirror and said, "Miss, are you satisfied with this?"
"Okay." Chang'an was very satisfied.
"As long as the young lady is satisfied." Bai Lu looked at the woman in the bronze mirror, "I believe that knowing oneself is the most important thing for a person. Miss Xue'er is now in this situation because she did not put herself in the right position and had thoughts that she should not have.
It has nothing to do with you, young lady. Even if you didn't marry into Prince Xuan's palace, there would still be other women, but it couldn't be Fu Xue'er's anyway."
"You're quite insightful." Chang An took a deep breath. "If she could take a step back and think about it, at least the man she loves will always appear before her eyes and she will always take care of him. For her, isn't this a kind of happiness?"
"Miss Xue'er's character dictates that she absolutely won't think that way," Bai Lu said. "She's too proud and doesn't know how to be tactful. She's destined to suffer losses."
"Alright." Chang'an stood up. "Let's go into the palace and watch a good show. We can also rescue the prince."
"Miss, you are so interesting to talk to."
In the imperial palace, in the emperor's study.
The Queen Mother sat on the throne with an angry look on her face. Kneeling on the ground was Eunuch Cheng, and standing were the left and right prime ministers, the eldest prince, and the fourth prince.
"Chang'an greets the Empress Dowager." Chang'an looked calm.
"Why are you here?" The Queen Mother said coldly, "You are well-informed. How many eyes and spies do you have in the palace, huh?"
“…” Chang’an was stunned and looked at everyone.
Obviously didn't know what was going on.
However, everyone in the room was obviously confused by the Queen Mother's sudden change in attitude towards Chang'an.
Bei Mingye explained, "Father, he is missing. Chang'an, you came to the palace now, did you hear the news?
Just now, the Empress Dowager ordered that this news must not be spread outside. Now, only my elder brother, the left and right prime ministers know about it. Even the Empress Dowager doesn't know. How did you know about it?"
"Gone?" Chang'an was surprised. "How could it be gone?"
Changan's eyes were filled with worry. "I didn't know about this news. I came here to see if my father has woken up. I want to ask for your permission to see Prince Xuan."
"I see." The Grand Prince continued, "The Emperor is in this room right now. How could he disappear for no reason? Grandmother."
The eldest prince looked up at the Empress Dowager and said, "Grandmother, Father has indeed been acting a bit strangely these past few days. The worst thing he did was to ask my ninth brother to give up his concubine. That's ridiculous. And he even imprisoned my ninth brother."
"Yes." Bei Mingye agreed, "I suspect that Father has been bewitched by some evil spell, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."
