Chapter 37: Searching for Her
He only saw the person in front of him opening and closing his mouth, but heard nothing.
Just staring at her without blinking.
Li Yueyao was very puzzled when she saw Feng Shenyu staring at her stupidly. She turned to look at Chen Shize and the other two.
Chen Shize had no choice but to reach out and pull the Fengshen Jade.
"Right Prime Minister, Right Prime Minister, why don't you show some courtesy?"
Fengshenyu was pulled by Chen Shize, and finally came to his senses and looked at Chen Shize.
Chen Shize whispered, "Right Prime Minister, please pay your respects."
Feng Shenyu didn't know what to do for a moment, so he just bowed casually.
Li Yueyao looked at the sky and saw that it was already past noon, so she said, "If the Right Prime Minister is alright, I will leave first."
After saying that, he walked away without caring about Feng Shenyu's situation.
After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "You three, follow me."
After hearing this, Chen Shize and the other two followed dejectedly from behind.
Seeing Li Yueyao's figure walking away, Feng Shenyu gradually came to his senses, quickly stepped forward and grabbed Chen Shize.
"What did you call her just now?"
"My great-aunt. She is my mother's aunt, the Grand Princess of Jinyang."
After Chen Shize finished speaking, Feng Shenyu let go of his hand.
Watching the carriage in front of him going farther and farther away, Feng Shenyu began to laugh. The more he laughed, the happier he became, and finally he laughed out loud.
Yan Tai was confused standing by. When did this cold-faced man of hers laugh like this on the street?
Could it be that he has gone crazy due to the stimulation?
Feng Shenyu smiled for a while and said, "So it's her, it's actually her, no wonder I couldn't find her all these years..."
After a while, Feng Shenyu came back to his senses, and changed his irritability and decadence when he came. He said with renewed energy: "Yantai, let's go back to the mansion."
After returning to the mansion, the doorman felt happy when he saw the master coming back happily after going out. The atmosphere in the mansion had been too low in the past two days.
Along the way, everyone in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion could feel the joy from Feng Shenyu.
"Inkstone, prepare water, my lord, I need to take a bath."
Feng Shenyu entered the hall and called out to Yantai loudly.
Yan Tai was puzzled. Shouldn't they be eating at noon? Why did they have to take a bath?
But he still said respectfully, "Yes, my lord."
After Feng Shenyu finished taking a bath, he asked Yantai to turn out all his clothes and look at them one by one.
Finally I found that most of my clothes were black.
"I don't have a nice dress?"
Feng Shenyu frowned and turned to ask Yantai.
Yantai was confused: "My dear, this is your favorite color. You thought the other colors were too bright, so you put them away."
Feng Shenyu heard this and smiled, "Go and get all those brightly colored clothes out for me to see."
When Yan Tai saw Feng Shenyu smiling again, he felt very nervous. What happened to his husband today?
Feng Shenyu looked at the several large boxes of brightly colored clothes in front of him and rummaged through them, picking them up.
Finally, he asked Yantai, "Which color would suit me best, your husband?"
"Red. My dear, the year you won the top spot in the imperial examination, you rode a horse in a red robe and paraded through the streets. All the girls on the street were captivated by you."
Feng Shenyu took out a red dress from the box, compared it with others, looked at herself in the mirror, and shook her head.
"No, red is too bright and not solemn."
Then he asked Xiang Yantai, "Is there any color that's not too bright, but not too pale?"
After hearing this, Yan Tai rummaged through the box again and took out a royal blue round-necked robe made of flowing brocade, embroidered with bamboo leaf patterns.
"My dear, this one.
The blue color of this piece is more stable, and the surface made of flowing brocade reflects light, making the blue look much brighter.
The bamboo leaves embroidered on the hem are subtle and can only be seen from a close distance."
Feng Shenyu took the royal blue dress, compared it to his body, and then nodded:
"Yes, you have good taste."
After saying that, he put on his clothes, paused halfway, and then took them off again.
"Take it and fumigate it with incense."
Yantai was stunned: "Lang... Langjun... what are you going to do?"
"Enter the palace."
"Why do you need to burn incense when entering the palace? What kind of incense?" Yan Tai asked.
"Go to the palace to see the Grand Princess of Jinyang and burn a fragrance that she will like."
There was a smile in Feng Shenyu's voice when he answered.
Yan Tai almost cried after hearing this.
"My dear, how would I know what kind of fragrance the Grand Princess of Jinyang likes?"
"Alas... My dear, my dear, please don't go. You haven't told me what kind of incense you want to burn yet."
Yan Tai shouted as he looked at Feng Shenyu's back.
Yu Zhan, who had come to Feng Shenyu to report the news, walked out from the side, looked at the inkstone, and said thoughtfully:
"Tell me, is it possible that Princess Jinyang is the person the master is looking for?"
When Yan Tai heard this, he was stunned.
Just now, my husband went out to meet the Grand Princess of Jinyang.
After thinking about this, Yantai instantly understood why her husband was acting abnormally today.
What kind of incense does Princess Jinyang like?
Let’s choose ambergris. I don’t know whether Your Highness likes it or not, but you can’t go wrong with this one.
After thinking about the inkstone, she happily took her clothes to burn incense.
…
The virtuous concubine searched the Wanhua Tower last night and came to discuss with Li Yueyao.
Who knew that as soon as I came in, I saw three people kneeling under the corridor of the west side hall of Taiji Palace.
When I got closer, I found that one of them was Chen Shize, and I was surprised.
After entering the room, he looked at Li Yueyao and asked, "What's that song being sung outside?"
Li Yueyao heard the voice of Concubine Xian, raised her head from the memorial, cleared her throat and said:
"You may not believe it, but I was molested when I went out today."
Xian Fei was stunned for a moment, then turned to look outside and asked, "Who are these three outside?"
Li Yueyao nodded.
The virtuous concubine began to laugh, and finally laughed so hard that her body shook and she was gasping for breath.
"I believe it, I believe it... You have this charm..."
Li Yueyao looked at her unhappily and said, "What are you doing here? Let's talk business."
The virtuous concubine laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. She sat down, drank a sip of tea, and said:
"Nothing. I just wanted to tell you that Wanhua Tower was sealed off yesterday, and everyone inside was arrested."
"Oh, did you find anything out?"
Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian frowned and said, “That’s why I came to look for you because of the weirdness.
The madam of Wanhua Tower did say that the owner of Wanhua Tower was Jin Mantang, but Jin Mantang usually didn't go there.
In daily life, I listen to Bi Yue in everything.
But after Bi Yue was caught, she kept crying, as if she was frightened, a little mentally disturbed, and said nothing.
I suspected that she was pretending to be crazy, so I asked someone to see a doctor for her.
Guess what?"
Li Yueyao looked sideways and asked, "What's going on?"
"After examining her, the Imperial Medical Bureau said that Bi Yue had been fed a drug that caused her mental disorder."
Li Yueyao asked, "Does that mean there's someone else on Biyue?"
Xian Fei nodded and then asked, "Could it be Jin Mantang?"
Li Yueyao sighed and looked at Concubine Xian and said, "Gan Qing reported that Jin Mantang committed suicide after being arrested and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison yesterday. He hid poison in his teeth and committed suicide."
After hearing this, Concubine Xian said thoughtfully, "Isn't there Ji Cheng? Didn't the two of them set up a trap for Zhao Qing together? Let's put him on trial."
Li Yueyao nodded and said, "Yes. It's already under review."
At this time in the prison, after a day and a night of torture, Ji Cheng had been beaten to a bloody pulp.
Gan Qing sat calmly on the chair in front of him, holding a cup of tea in his hand and drinking it leisurely.
Someone from the Hundred Cavalry Division came in and reported, "General, the Marquis of Anyuan has arrived."
The Marquis of Anyuan is called Sheng Wenyao. He had a stroke some time ago and has not yet fully recovered. He has difficulty walking and uses a cane.
After entering the prison, I felt my stomach churn when I saw the man in front of me who was tied up with chains and was almost unrecognizable.
