Seeing that the emperor ignored him, Leng Chaozong, who was standing to the side, was somewhat dissatisfied.
Then, the Imperial Guards holding him didn't give him a chance to speak and took him away directly.
Zhu Jingchen looked at the ministers below, but did not announce the end of the court session, and no one dared to say anything.
After all, the Prime Minister, who was perfectly fine just moments ago, suddenly found himself in jail.
This made everyone feel that it was somewhat unreal. Could it be that the Prime Minister did not agree to Li Tianyou entering the court as an official?
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes unconsciously drifted towards Li Tianyou.
"Have someone investigate how Leng Qi met Miss Li and why he kidnapped her in the street," Zhu Jingchen said to Eunuch Liu beside him, his face dark.
"Yes!" Eunuch Liu secretly groaned. That young master of the Leng family was also blind. How could he have even kidnapped Miss Li? Was she someone he could afford to offend?
Leng Family
The butler deliberately led Liu Ming to Leng Qi's chess academy.
There were only a few maids and servants sweeping inside; no one else was there.
"Where is the young master?" the Leng family butler asked deliberately.
"Young Master hasn't returned to the manor yet," the maid replied rudely.
In fact, they rarely saw the young master return to the chess academy.
"See, I told you my young master wasn't in the manor," the steward said, trying to sound clever.
"Steward Liu, we've had someone investigate, and someone personally witnessed the young master of the Leng family bringing our princess back to the Leng family." Soon, a servant stepped forward and said.
"Search!" Liu Ming said coldly. He hadn't expected the Leng family to play tricks on him. He would deal with the old man after he found their princess.
Seeing Liu Ming being searched directly in the Leng family home, Du Cheng, the Leng family's butler, smiled sarcastically.
Search all they want, they can search the Leng family from top to bottom and still not find their young master.
Because Leng Qi is not at the Leng family's house at all, but in the yard next door.
Each time, Leng Qi deliberately entered through the Leng family's main gate in order to mislead outsiders.
However, Du Cheng knew that his young master had indeed brought back a woman today.
But didn't that woman say she was a merchant's daughter?
Why would the Prince An's mansion still attract people to come looking for them?
In the palace
Xiuzhen Palace
"Your Highness, something terrible has happened!" The little eunuch stumbled in, shouting as he went.
"What are you shouting for? You've disturbed the Imperial Concubine, you'll be in big trouble!" A maidservant quickly stopped the eunuch and said with displeasure.
"Oh dear, Sister Xiuzhu, it's extremely urgent! The Prime Minister is in trouble!" the little eunuch said anxiously.
"Hey, wait here." Xiuzhu quickly went into the inner room and gently called out to the woman who was still sleeping on the bed.
"master."
Xiuzhu was also a little scared. If her master didn't get enough rest, he would get angry.
"Your Highness, something has happened." Seeing that the Imperial Concubine did not react, Xiuzhu carefully repeated herself.
"What is it? Can't we wait until I've had a good night's sleep before we talk about it?" Leng Zhen glared at her coldly, clearly displeased.
"Master, Xiao Anzi is outside. He said that something happened to the Prime Minister," Xiuzhu said quickly.
It wasn't that she was tactless; it was just that the Prime Minister was the Consort's father. If they knew that the Prime Minister was in trouble and didn't inform the Consort, they would be in even worse shape.
"What?" Leng Zhen quickly sat up upon hearing this, wondering what had happened to her father.
