Shao Lecheng and Jing Yuchen immediately said: "No!"
Duan Gouqiong clenched his fists and said, "Otherwise, we'll just sit there and wait for the Queen Mother to be pleased and release the child voluntarily."
"If you write a letter, it's very likely that the Queen Mother's men will intercept it along the way. Then, the Queen Mother can charge you with treason! You must remember your identity. You are Princess Xianchang!"
Duan Gouqiong opened his mouth to say something, but finally closed it, with hatred filling his heart.
"Let me figure it out, but don't worry, since I'm using you, I definitely won't harm the child during this time."
After Jing Yuchen finished speaking, he turned and walked out. Shao Lecheng wanted to get out of bed, but Duan Gouqiong quickly held him down: "Why are you getting out of bed?"
"This injury on my body was inflicted by the old witch, and now she has kidnapped our child. Tell me, if we don't take revenge, wouldn't we be too cowardly?"
Duan Gouqiong still had tears on her face: "But, the prince just said that you can't write to Canglie."
"Yes, I can't write letters, but there are other ways!"
Duan Gouqiong looked at Shao Lecheng in confusion. Shao Lecheng clenched his fist and said, "I have villagers from one village to help me!"
He built a village to protect the people, and those were his rights.
Shao Lecheng dragged his scarred body and went out with Duan Gouqiong, because many women and children in the village were infected by the plague.
But now there is a good cure, and the price is not allowed to rise, so the people can afford it. When they heard that Shao Lecheng was coming, they all went to the village entrance to welcome him.
As soon as Shao Lecheng got off the carriage, he was surrounded: "Brother Lecheng, have you forgotten us? Why haven't you come to see us for so long?"
A little girl, holding a windmill in her hand, looked up at him with eyes full of admiration and love.
Duan Gouqiong's expression became increasingly complicated when he saw the children surrounding them.
She used to think Shao Lecheng was not serious, but now, she felt that Shao Lecheng was her pride.
"Brother Lecheng was too busy, so he didn't come. I will never forget you."
He squatted down and looked at the little girl at eye level. "You've grown so much, I can hardly recognize you."
After greeting the children, Shao Lecheng was taken to the village chief's house.
Shao Lecheng felt strange as he walked along the road: "Since when did we get a village chief?"
"Before, women and children lived in one village, and the men were separated into another. Even though we were close, it always felt strange. You haven't been here for so long, and many of them have formed families and become couples. Naturally, the village has become more and more organized, and a village chief has even been elected."
"Every month, the Gold and Silver House sends some money to subsidize us. Although it's not much, it keeps coming every month. Our village is so much better than other villages!"
Shao Lecheng didn't know that Ni Yueshan had been distributing the money from the Gold and Silver House to the villagers, and he hadn't stolen for too long, so naturally he had no money to give back to them...
After arriving at the village home, the village chief poured tea for Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong. There were still many women and children sitting alone at the door. Shao Lecheng felt helpless: "Go and have fun. Next time I come, I will bring you delicious food and fun things!"
After hearing this, the children naturally dispersed happily. The women also had work to do at home, so they went about their business.
The village chief looked at Duan Gouqiong and asked, "Is this the wife of Lord Shao En?"
"Yes, she and I have a daughter. This time, I came here for our daughter..."
The village chief looked at Shao Lecheng in confusion, not quite understanding for a moment.
"Qiong'er and I's child was kidnapped by thieves, and now I really want to rescue the child."
The village chief looked at Shao Lecheng in surprise. Shao Lecheng sighed and said, "But the other party is too powerful. I don't have the right to ask for the child directly. I can only find out where the child is raised and then wait for an opportunity to rescue him."
"Then how can we help our benefactor?"
Shao Lecheng's expression became serious: "Perhaps you all don't quite understand, but my true identity is a prince, and this is Canglie's princess, now my consort."
After Shao Lecheng explained his identity, he began to talk about the plan. The village chief was originally elected by the village.
Naturally, he was much braver than other villagers. After listening to Shao Lecheng's words, he was not panicked at all except for surprise and worry.
"My benefactor, it's not difficult to plant someone in the palace, but the palace is so large that it can accommodate tens of thousands of people. How can I ensure that I can serve the Empress Dowager and become your eyes and ears, constantly conveying information out of the palace..."
"Don't worry, I'll discuss this with you in detail. Of course, don't act rashly before you can ensure your own safety. Even if you can't rescue the child, keeping him by the Queen Mother's side will be useful in the future."
He lowered his gaze. In the past, he thought that whoever was the emperor, whoever was in power, had nothing to do with him. But now it was different. He felt powerless. He couldn't even protect his own daughter. He wanted to fight back, he wanted to rebel...
Ni Yueshan outside the city received the news that Jing Xueer had now returned to the palace, and Ni Yueshan breathed a sigh of relief.
But Jing Ke'er is still in the palace...
Ni Gaofei was standing by at the time. He sighed and said worriedly, "The Queen Mother's tactics of sowing discord are very effective!"
“I believe Le Cheng and Gou Qiong are not such narrow-minded people. They will not suspect that the palace has selfish motives!”
Ni Gaofei stroked his beard, "Have you ever considered that the Queen Mother would like to see you two separated? You might as well let her see it!"
Ni Yueshan looked at Ni Gaofei in surprise: "Dad, do you mean to turn the tables on me?"
