Zhao Yunzhu pretended to be confused and looked around at the Wang family's servants, but did not see any familiar maid.
Frowning in confusion, she asked, "Could it be that those two maids didn't come with us? This is truly strange. Are they too guilty to confront this concubine?"
These few words left Mrs. Wang at a loss for words.
Lord Wang's face was livid, and he slammed his hand hard on the armrest of the chair. "Concubine Yun, my daughter's two maids have disappeared. The last letter my daughter sent home mentioned to my husband and me that because she had offended Concubine Yun, she had encountered many obstacles in Chang'an."
"We wrote to ask our daughter to come back with us, but we didn't receive a reply. We hurried over to look for her, only to hear that our little girl was gone!"
Lord Wang's face was heavy.
"Then Lord Wang should ask the officials, or go to the Liu family and ask someone."
Zhao Yunzhu shrugged, looking helpless. "After all, I don't have the heart to waste time with someone irrelevant!"
After she finished speaking, she stood up and looked at Lord Wang and his wife. "I will tell you everything I know. I wonder if Lord Wang and Madam Wang have anything else to ask me?"
"Concubine Yun, you make it sound so easy, but my daughter has lost her life. Don't think you can get rid of us with just a few words. If Concubine Yun can't give me and my master a satisfactory answer today, then we will file a complaint with the emperor and seek justice for my daughter!"
Mrs. Wang suddenly stood up, her skirt swaying.
Zhao Yunzhu glanced coldly at Madam Wang, a hint of sneer on her lips, "Then I will not disturb Master Wang and Madam Wang. I won't see you off."
Zhao Yunzhu stood up quickly and turned to leave.
Mrs. Wang did not expect Zhao Yunzhu to have such a reaction. She was stunned and didn't know what to say.
"Concubine Yun, my wife and I just want a result!"
Lord Wang spoke up to stop Zhao Yunzhu.
"My Lord, I have already told you everything I have said. If you do not believe me, you can follow Madam Wang's wishes and go to the palace to ask for an explanation."
"There's nothing for this concubine to stop. After all, Miss Wang also lost her life in the Liu family."
"Lord Wang and Madam Wang, you absolutely shouldn't be asking this concubine for an explanation."
Zhao Yunzhu lowered her eyes, straightened the wrinkles on her sleeves, and said indifferently, "This concubine will not accompany you."
The crowd gathered in front of Prince An's mansion, originally intending to watch the excitement.
After hearing all this, I recalled the things that had been reported in Chang'an before.
After whispering a few words, he left.
Mrs. Wang wanted to catch up and ask Zhao Yunzhu for an explanation, but she was stopped by the guards of Prince An's Mansion before she took two steps.
"Walk."
Lord Wang frowned, flicked his sleeves, and strode away.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly chased after him.
They came to Chang'an this time to seek justice for their daughter.
For this reason, Lord Wang resigned for one month.
Now the two of them must first find a place to stay in Chang'an, and then investigate bit by bit to find out why their daughter is gone.
"Young General Liu!"
Mrs. Wang had just caught up with Lord Wang when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking out of the restaurant.
He held a woman's hand with a serious expression, and there was a hint of caution in his eyes.
Mrs. Wang's expression froze, and there was a hint of disgust in her eyes.
He had previously expressed his deep love for his daughter, saying that he would not marry anyone else in his life and would never treat her unfairly.
But ever since his daughter's accident, he has never seen General Liu again.
How many days has it been?
Did he change the person around him?
Madam Wang ignored Lord Wang and rushed forward, her anger radiating into a sharp question, "Young General Liu seems to be living a carefree life, with his beautiful wife by his side. I wonder if he thinks of my Min'er in his dreams at night?"
Mrs. Wang sneered, with a hint of disdain in her words.
General Liu froze and was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.
Aunt Liu, who was standing by, had already guessed the identities of the two.
The mockery in her eyes flashed away, and then she said gently, "How about inviting the two of you to sit down and have some tea?"
As Aunt Liu spoke, she secretly tugged at General Liu's sleeve.
General Liu finally came to his senses, turned sideways, and said, "Uncle, Aunt, please come in and sit down."
In the private room on the second floor.
Lord Wang and General Liu were talking in the private room next door.
Mrs. Wang lived next door with Aunt Liu.
"Madam Wang, have some tea."
Aunt Liu picked up the tea and handed it over. Mrs. Wang narrowed her eyes, glanced at Aunt Liu, snorted lightly, and did not take it.
"May I know your name, Madam?"
"Liu Ruxu."
"Young lady, how long have you known General Liu?" Before Madam Wang and Lord Wang could inquire, they ran into General Liu and Concubine Liu.
Aunt Liu told Madam Wang that she was an orphan, and also said that after the death of Madam Liu and Miss Wang, General Liu was devastated and almost lost his life in the mountains, and was finally rescued by her.
Now she has been taken over by Empress Dowager Liu and has become the concubine of General Liu.
"Madam Liu is so lucky."
Mrs. Wang's tone was a little frivolous.
Aunt Liu smiled indifferently, lowered her eyes, picked up the teacup and drank tea, not taking Mrs. Wang's words and attitude to heart.
"Come to think of it, if my Min'er were still alive, she would still call Aunt Liu "cousin-in-law", and we would be considered to have some kinship."
Seeing that Mrs. Wang suddenly changed the subject and started talking about their friendship, Aunt Liu became more or less wary.
She put down the teacup and continued to smile without saying a word.
But this time, Mrs. Wang did not continue speaking, but instead looked away.
Looking to the side, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After an unknown amount of time, a servant came to announce that Lord Wang had gone to the carriage to wait for Madam Wang.
General Liu sat in the private room in a daze.
Madam Wang took a quick look and was about to leave when Aunt Liu spoke up, "Madam Wang, let me see you off on your husband's behalf."
Mrs. Wang glanced at Aunt Liu and felt a little dissatisfied when she heard her address.
"Thank you very much."
But she did not reject Aunt Liu's kindness in the end, because she still wanted to get some information out of Aunt Liu.
The two walked to the stairs and met a woman in a pink gauze dress with a red velvet flower in her hair. Her face was rosy with rouge. The woman raised the corners of her lips and smiled seductively. She held a middle-aged, fat man with her fair hands.
The man put one hand around the woman's waist, and the woman's entire body was almost clinging to the man.
Mrs. Wang saw this scene and frowned secretly.
Mrs. Wang moved aside to make way, with a look of contempt in her eyes.
She naturally recognized the woman in front of her at a glance. She was not a woman.
I'm afraid he came from Qinlou and Chuguan.
She took a handkerchief from her bosom and covered her mouth and nose.
He didn't notice at all that Aunt Liu's expression beside him suddenly turned cold.
His hands, hidden in his sleeves, were clenched into fists.
Because she knew the woman in front of her.
