Ni Gaofei, who was outside the city, felt extremely relieved as he watched the situation gradually stabilize.
He looked at Zou Yangyao standing beside him and said, "I believe that in a few days, the city gate will be open."
Zou Yangyao naturally relaxed, but it was just that Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen had to go through a lot of trouble to get a message out. Was their situation really okay in the city?
While he was still lost in thought, Xiao Chu'er came running over, her face extremely panicked: "Oh no, oh no, the child, the child is missing!"
"Xue'er?" Zou Yangyao and Ni Gaofei asked in confusion at the same time.
"Two, both children are missing!"
Xiao Chuer started crying anxiously, and her voice trembled slightly.
The situation outside the city was bad before, and the children were fine, but now that the situation has improved, why is it unsafe?
Zou Yangyao felt strange and turned to look at Ni Gaofei.
After the three of them arrived at the room, Xiao Chuer pointed to the two empty small rocking beds in the room.
"Originally, A-man and I were guarding the child. When I heard some noise outside the house, I went to check on the situation. But A-man had been guarding the room the whole time. When I came back, A-man had been knocked unconscious, and the child was gone!"
Zou Yangyao looked around: "Where are the Aman people now?"
"I'm frantically looking for my child!"
Ni Gaofei stroked his beard, a puzzled look on his face. "If the child was taken away by someone with ulterior motives, why didn't they use a drug to knock you both out before taking the child away? Why would they have to go through the trouble of luring you away?"
Xiao Chu'er pondered the question, tears in her eyes, and was spinning, "What does this mean?"
"This means that this person knows that you have extraordinary medical skills. They are afraid that you can identify the drug and expose them. So this person must be an acquaintance!"
Zou Yangyao frowned. "An acquaintance committed the crime and took the child away. Why? To threaten Yue Shan and Princess Gou Qiong?"
Ni Gaofei sighed: "Maybe!"
In the palace, Ni Yueshan and Duan Gouqiong had almost recovered. They planned that when the plague completely disappeared, they would hold Xue'er and Ke'er in their arms and go out to have fun and see the scenery.
Just at this moment, a servant came hurriedly and whispered something to Ni Yueshan.
Ni Yueshan looked at it in surprise, and then the servant handed over the note.
Ni Yueshan took a look, and the gentleness on his face just now disappeared without a trace.
Duan Gouqiong asked curiously, "What happened? Hasn't the plague been brought under control?"
Ni Yueshan's face was calm: "It's something else."
Duan Gouqiong felt strange. Ni Yueshan had always been calm and composed. How big a matter could it be that would make her look so ugly?
"Gou Qiong, go back and rest. I have to find a way to get out of the city."
Duan Gouqiong also had a bad feeling in his heart, "Then you have to be careful."
Since Ni Yueshan kept it from her, she wouldn't ask.
The servant watched Ni Yueshan walk out the door and followed her. He couldn't help but ask, "Princess, do you need to inform the prince about this?"
Ni Yueshan shook his head: "I just need to leave the city gate. He has a lot of things to do right now, so I won't add to his troubles."
When Ni Yueshan climbed up the city wall, Lin Yushan stood guard beside her and said, "Princess, the court hasn't issued an order to open the city gate yet. If you go outside the city, you may not be able to come back for several days."
"It's okay, let me go."
At this time, Ni Yueshan was wearing the clothes of an ordinary soldier in the court, and his face had a very determined expression.
He sighed helplessly: "Well, then Princess, please be careful."
Then he said loudly, "Let this man go. She will investigate the situation outside the city and report back! Let him go!"
A hemp rope was tied around Ni Yueshan's waist, and she was slowly lowered down. After landing, Ni Yueshan clasped her fists to Lin Yushan before turning around and leaving.
Ni Yueshan walked into the inn where Ni Gaofei, Zou Yangyao and others were staying.
At this time, Xiao Chuer and Aman were sitting in the room, one wiping tears and crying, while the other was wondering who had taken the child away.
The two of them sensed someone standing at the door and looked towards the person. Seeing that it was Ni Yueshan, Xiao Chuer immediately stood up and said, "Yueshan!"
She walked quickly to Ni Yueshan, looking a little excited, but soon lowered her head in shame: "I'm sorry, Yueshan, it's my fault. I didn't take good care of the two children and let them be taken away!"
Ni Yueshan said to comfort him, "Don't blame yourself. If someone wants to take the child away, even if there are heavy guards, they will still do everything they can to stop him."
Xiao Chuer already felt guilty, and now that Ni Yueshan understood her so well, she felt even more sad.
"The Prime Minister and my husband have gone out to search together, but there are no clues yet."
"Tell me what happened that day." Ni Yueshan began to look around.
Xiao Chuer followed beside him, sighed, and told the story again.
After listening to this, Ni Yueshan sat silently on the chair without saying a word. Xiao Chuer and Aman did not dare to disturb him and just watched Ni Yueshan quietly from the side.
Finally, Ni Yueshan said, "Call my father and Zou Yangyao back!"
Afterwards, Aman quickly turned around and went to do it. When he came back with them, they were very happy.
"Yueshan, you called us back. Did you see through something?"
Ni Yueshan looked up and shook her head. "I think it's pointless for you to search outside the city. In the eyes of others, the child is yours and Miss Xiao's. Why would someone take your child away? Is it because you have an enemy?"
Zou Yangyao immediately retorted: "Impossible. I, Zou Yangyao, cannot match my previous military exploits. I have never dealt with anyone or made enemies. How could there be any enemies coming to my door!"
Ni Gaofei also chimed in: "As you said, these two children, in the eyes of others, are just the children of General Zou and Miss Xiao. Why would they kidnap their children? This matter should have nothing to do with me!"
"You are both right. Since we have ruled out the possibility that they are targeting you two, then they must be targeting the child's parents!" Ni Yueshan said with certainty.
Ni Gaofei frowned slightly. "You mean, others are targeting you, the Regent, and Princess Gou Qiong?"
Ni Yueshan nodded: "This person knows who the child's biological parents are and took them away. I'm afraid this person is trying to threaten us. This person might be the Queen Mother!"
Ni Yueshan's analysis sounded very correct. Ni Gaofei was silent for a moment before he sighed, "I never thought the Queen Mother would do such a thing..."
Zou Yangyao frowned, full of anger: "I'm going to go to the palace to find out what the Queen Mother is planning!"
Ni Yueshan immediately scolded: "Don't be reckless! And it's just speculation at the moment!"
