1370 Action, The Secret of Luowang Mansion
The spy did not find Feng Qingchen's whereabouts, but he found an important piece of information, which was related to Feng Qingchen's whereabouts.
With the reassuring look from the eldest son, the spy finally calmed down and began to report the information he had found out to Wang Jinling.
"To answer your question, sir, although I have not found the whereabouts of Miss Feng, I have found a carriage overturned on the road outside the city. The trace was too deep and the other party was not able to clear it up at once. In addition, I discovered that a large number of people were patrolling nearby. I suspect that the person who kidnapped Miss Feng had an accident at that bend, and Miss Feng may have escaped." The spy explained the matter in a clear and orderly manner.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tong Jue and Tong Yao shouted, "It must be the girl. The girl is definitely not someone who would surrender without a fight. She must have escaped. Master, now that you have found out where the girl is, take someone to rescue her."
Wang Jinling glanced at Tong Jue and Tong Yao calmly: "What we can find out, the other party must know."
"Ah? Then aren't you going to find a lady?" Tong Jue and Tong Yao looked at each other, unable to understand what Wang Jinling meant.
"Of course not. Now that we have found the overturned carriage, let's find out who did it." We must find it, but we need to plan in detail how to find it. What if the other party misled us?
Wang Jinling thought that there was no one available in Feng Mansion, so he went back to Wang's house in a hurry without saying anything. Tong Jue and Tong Yao looked at Wang Jinling's back as he left, with a puzzled look on their faces: "Sir, are you not going to look for the young lady?"
"Of course not." The butler came out from the dark: "Didn't the master say that the other party must have known what we can find out. They must have made all the preparations to find someone there. We should lead people there directly. What if we fall into their trap?"
"But, but..." Isn't the young lady's safety more important?
"No buts. If that's just a trick, we will not only lose manpower, but also be misled and miss the best time to search." The butler's old face showed a more solemn expression.
After all, he has experienced more than Tong Jue and Tong Yao, so of course he sees things more thoroughly.
"So you're not going to look for it anymore?" There was a flash of hurt in Tong Jue and Tong Yao's eyes. If that was the case, they would go look for it themselves.
The housekeeper shook his head: "Of course not. Even if we know it is a trap, we still have to look for it, but we can't look for it in a high-profile manner, which will give the other party or potential enemies an opportunity to take advantage. The eldest master has already returned to the Wang family. We have to trust the eldest master. He will definitely arrange people to search and rescue the young lady."
At this time, they had no choice but to believe it. The eldest master was their last hope. If he didn't care, they wouldn't know what to do.
"We understand." Tong Jue and Tong Yao nodded repeatedly: "Let's also contact the spies in each prefecture to find out the situation in each prefecture. Maybe we can get some useful information."
"Hurry up." The housekeeper said heavily. Tong Jue and Tong Yao realized that they were so busy worrying last night that they did nothing. They didn't care about being tired and ran out quickly.
Alas... The butler sighed heavily, fell into the chair, and looked out the door with his eyes ignoring everything.
Wang Jinling returned to the Wang family, gathered enough people, and made careful arrangements before letting his subordinates go to the valley to look for someone. As for himself, he stayed in the Wang family, dispatched the Wang family's resources at the first time, and used the Wang family's connections to the maximum extent to find Feng Qingchen's whereabouts.
As he said, even if he had to dig three feet deep, he would find Feng Qing.
The fall of dust.
Wang Jinling's move was very big, and although he was very careful, he could not hide it from the Wang family. Several elders of the Wang family were very dissatisfied with Wang Jinling for using the power of the Wang family in Beijing to find a woman at this time.
You know, the emperor's life or death is still unknown. The Wang family is making frequent moves at this time to show their strength. This is just handing the handle to the emperor, making him suspect them, the Wang family.
The elders of the Wang family came together and asked Wang Jinling to stop his crazy actions immediately and not put the Wang family in danger for a woman.
But... when they arrived at the door, they didn't even see Wang Jinling. Several elders were so angry that they vomited blood. They called Wang Jinling's father and sat together in the flower hall, as if they would not leave until Wang Jinling came.
At noon, spies in the city came to report that Prince Luo was suddenly ill. Prince Luo's Palace invited five doctors into the palace today. The specific condition of the disease could not be found out, and Prince Luo's Palace kept it very secret.
If it was normal, Wang Jinling would not pay attention to such news. After all, everyone gets sick sometimes, but King Luo's illness was really unfortunate.
Wang Jinling didn't say anything, but tapped the table lightly: "Do... Do... Do." Slowly and orderly, each tap seemed to be knocking on the heart, making people involuntarily nervous.
Just when the spy thought that this torture would continue, Wang Jinling suddenly stood up and said, "Prepare the horses. I want to leave the city."
"Young Master?" The spy looked up nervously.
It is not a wise move to leave the city at this time. The outside of the city is definitely not as safe as the inside. Even if the overturned carriage was not a trap set by the enemy, that place must be full of experts. If they rush over like this, they will be sending themselves to the enemy's door.
"Prepare the horses." Wang Jinling did not give any extra explanations and just repeated his words again.
His orders were unquestionable.
The spy didn't dare to say anything more. He just replied yes and began to arrange for Wang Jinling to leave the city.
"What? Jinling is going to leave the city? Is he crazy?" The elders of the Wang family and Wang Jinling's father could no longer sit still after hearing the news. A group of people ran out quickly and blocked Wang Jinling's way when he was about to go out.
"Jinling, you can't leave the city." Wang Jinling's father said on behalf of everyone in the Wang family.
Wang Jinling seemed to have guessed it long ago. He stopped calmly and saluted to his father and the others: "Father, elders."
"Hmph..." The elders turned their heads away arrogantly, looking as if they were very angry.
Wang Jinling was not panicked, and said calmly: "Father, elders, I know what I am doing. Please rest assured, father and elders, I will not put the Wang family in danger."
"Really? Are you sure what you said is true? If you really care about the Wang family, you would not mobilize the Wang family's spies in Beijing for a woman. Do you know how many years our Wang family has been operating these spies? How many people will be exposed by your move?" The elder of the Wang family said sarcastically.
It's no wonder that the elders of the Wang family spoke in a bad tone. It's just that these spies are too precious. In the past two years... the emperor has carried out bloodbaths one after another, and the Wang family has lost countless spies. They dare not move the remaining people at all, and let them lie in ambush to avoid being exposed. However, Wang Jinling mobilized all of them in one night.
This is going to reveal all of the Wang family's trump cards in Beijing. It's really not worth it just for a woman!
