188 Unknown, all parties move together
Regardless of whether Zhai Dongming believed what Prince Su said or not, he had to go find Feng Qingchen, because Prince Su had given a death order that he must not come back if he could not find Feng Qingchen before dark.
Zhai Dongming was extremely unhappy, but he did not dare to refute his grandfather's words. After hesitating for a long time, he finally reached the city gate.
"Your Highness." The soldiers guarding the city immediately stepped forward and saluted him.
"No need to be so polite." Zhai Dongming said in a very gentlemanly manner.
"Young Master, which Young Master?" The carriage that had just driven out of the city gate stopped when it heard these three words. A shrewd and capable guard stepped forward and asked.
"Zhai Dongming, the son of Prince Su, which master of Prince Luo's Mansion is in the carriage?" Zhai Dongming saw the sign of the carriage in front and dismounted.
Prince Luo has not yet married. Logically, only Dongling Ziluo is qualified to use the carriage built by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. However, Prince Luo's injury has not healed yet, and Zhai Dongming is very surprised.
"My name is Wu Chen, greeting Prince Su. Inside the carriage is His Royal Highness Prince Luo." Wu Chen is one of Dong Ling Zi Luo's personal guards.
"Prince Luo? Isn't Prince Luo injured? Why did this group leave the city?" Zhai Dongming strode towards the carriage, accompanied by Wu Chen.
"Prince Luo's injuries are almost healed. The imperial physician told him to just not exert himself." Otherwise, how could Prince Luo ride in a carriage?
Zhai Dongming nodded and saluted to Dongling Ziluo outside the carriage. He was the crown prince and did not need to kneel and kowtow to King Luo.
"Dongming, where is Feng Qingchen?" Dongling Ziluo opened the carriage door and asked directly.
Actually, he was more anxious than anyone else.
If Feng Qingchen stayed out all night again, even if the emperor agreed, the royal family would not agree to give her the position of concubine.
The concubine also had a jade plate to enter the ancestral temple, and was considered a master in the palace. She did not need to kneel when meeting the main wife. If he ascended the throne, she would be one of the four concubines.
Zhai Dongming looked up in surprise, then quickly lowered his head, saying self-reproachfully, "Your Highness Prince Luo, please rest assured that Feng Qingchen will be fine. Dongming will go out and pick her up right away."
What grandpa said was indeed correct. The people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion had caused trouble for Feng Qingchen before because the matter was too small and these people were not in a position to intervene and were too lazy to care.
However, grandpa did not say that Prince Luo and Feng Qingchen had such a good relationship, and he actually went to see her with injuries. This is really hard to believe.
Before, the relationship between Prince Luo and Feng Qingchen was extremely tense. Although those rumors were exaggerated, some of them were true. Prince Luo wanted to kill Feng Qingchen before.
But what does this guy mean?
If you say that Prince Luo has no interest in Feng Qingchen, Zhai Dongming would not believe it even if he were beaten to death.
"Well, I will go with you." Dong Ling Zi Luo sat back and signaled the guards to continue walking out of the city.
This is Zhai Dongming, the son of Prince Su. If it were anyone else, Dongling Ziluo would have kicked him out long ago. Anyone who dared to plot against the woman he liked must be fed up with life.
How could he not know the blame in Dong Ling Ziluo's words? He could only play dumb at this time. But just as Zhai Dongming was about to leave, Wang Qi's voice came from behind him:
"My Lord, wait a minute."
Zhai Dongming didn't want to pay attention, but Dong Ling Ziluo said, "It doesn't matter this moment, wait and see what he has to say."
"Young Master, where is Feng Qingchen?" Because Wang Jinling and Zhai Dongming had a good relationship, Wang Qi and Zhai Dongming were also very familiar with each other. In addition, as the seventh son of the Wang family, his status and position would not be bad, so Wang Qi was not polite to Zhai Dongming at all.
"Outside the city." Zhai Dongming gritted his teeth, knowing that he was the consultant.
He wasn't hiding anything from anyone. He was leaving and entering the city so ostentatiously. Was it really necessary to ask him another question? Really.
“Hehe…” Wang Qi sneered twice. He was the kind of noble young man who was as pure and proud as an orchid. This sneer made people feel an unreasonable sense of distance.
"You are truly mighty, Prince. Throwing a weak woman outside the city, I guess only you, Prince, can do such a thing."
"Wang Jinhan, don't make me angry. Don't think I'm afraid of you just because the Wang family is here." Zhai Dongming had already regretted it, but Wang Qi was adding fuel to the fire.
“My lord, please try and do it. Don’t think that I will be afraid of you just because Prince Su’s mansion is here.” Wang Qi is not Feng Qingchen. The Wang family, as the head of the aristocratic families, will not be afraid of Prince Su. Even if they are afraid, they cannot show it. This is the pride of the aristocratic family, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives for this pride.
Zhai Dongming's temples were throbbing, his eyes were wide open, and he clenched his hands tightly, trying to restrain himself from punching.
If it had been any other time, if Grandpa had beaten Wang Qi today, he would definitely not have let him go, but Wang Qi was not afraid of death and challenged him with his eyes.
Although Dong Ling Zi Luo didn't see it, he understood it by hearing it. He was impatient but had to come out to smooth things over: "Okay, stop making trouble. It's important to find someone. The remnants of Prime Minister Zhu seem to be still active outside the imperial city. If it's too late, it will be bad if Feng Qingchen encounters the remnants of Prime Minister Zhu."
"I don't want to bother with you." Zhai Dongming went down.
"If you don't bother to argue with me, I won't bother to talk to you either, my Lord. Let's wait until we find Feng Qingchen. If she's fine, that's fine. But if something happens, I don't know what you can say to my brother." Wang Qi turned his face away, ignored Zhai Dongming, got on his horse, whipped it forward, and passed by Dong Lingzi Luo's carriage road and said, "Your Highness Prince Luo, I'm worried about Feng Qingchen's safety, so I'll go first."
Behind him were twenty guards sent by the Wang family. The last time he encountered danger in the woods, the Wang family was shocked. Therefore, Wang Qi always brought guards with him when he left the city.
The Wang family guards, Prince Luo's personal guards, but also Zhai Dongming's personal guards, such a large group running out of the city, how could it not attract attention.
When the Ninth Prince received the news, he just smiled and said nothing. The eunuchs around him were so curious that they had no idea what the Ninth Prince meant.
When the people in the Zhenguo Mansion heard the news, they were somewhat glad that they had only been testing Feng Qingchen before and had not taken action against him. If they had angered Feng Qingchen, it would probably not be a good thing. However, even if the open knife wouldn't work, the hidden knife might be able to work. They had to quickly invite Feng Qingchen to their home for treatment.
After the emperor knew about this, he stared at the two words "Luo Wu" for a long time.
"Are you sure it's King Luo?"
"I am definitely His Royal Highness Prince Luo." The spy knelt on the ground with his head lowered.
"Go away." The emperor read the secret report again and put it in a wooden box.
Dong Ling Zi Luo's actions were beyond his expectations, and the Ninth Prince's inaction was even more beyond his expectations.
The Emperor doesn't need to be anxious if he doesn't believe the Ninth Uncle. They all know very well what the situation is outside the city. Those people are not just the remnants of Prime Minister Zhu.
Those people were actually Nanling's secret agents in Dongling, a group of experts led by the third prince of Nanling.
These people are beyond the reach of even the Emperor. If Feng Qingchen were to fall into their hands outside the city, there is a high probability that he would not survive.
A step later, the queen also received the same news. She was not as magnanimous as the emperor, and she was so angry that she almost fainted.
Her son, the son she was so proud of, actually left the city injured for a little bitch.
"Feng Qingchen, you'd better die outside, otherwise I will never let you go. I will not allow it, I will never allow my son to be involved with you."
Snap...The queen broke the armor alive.
She would not allow, absolutely not allow her son to marry Feng Qingchenchen, let alone a concubine, even an unnamed concubine was not allowed...
To the readers: You BS me, you said that there would be 100 chapters in June, but there are only 96 chapters. I am so ashamed that I face the wall. Okay, let's keep it at 3 chapters in July, and add more chapters occasionally. (I'm just asking for a guaranteed monthly ticket! All the monthly tickets should be given to the new book. Phoenix is wrong to not want it. I really don't want it.)
