Chapter 320 The person is missing
Zheng Kuan looked at the servant with murderous eyes. He knew that his master was injured and could not travel, but as a servant he did not try to dissuade him and instead allowed him to go out. He deserved to die.
Perhaps because of Zheng Kuan's sharp eyes, the servant was terrified. The next moment, his eyes turned black and he fainted.
Zheng Kuan didn't say anything, and the servants from the Princess's Mansion immediately stepped forward and dragged the boy away.
The few people who had come to Ningxiang Tower with Zheng Wenwu to have fun today were now kneeling at Zheng Kuan's feet, trembling, feeling that their lives were over.
"Did you instigate the civil and military officials to come here?" Zheng Kuan put his hands behind his back and stared coldly at the tops of their heads.
Several people shuddered immediately, Zhou Huaian said hurriedly: "Prince consort, please understand, we received a message from Young Master Zheng and were waiting outside at 9:00 pm today. It was really... We advised him a few days ago."
Zheng Kuan was extremely angry, but he couldn't yell at and scold these officials' sons like he did to them as slaves.
These followers have always followed their son's lead. You say they instigated the matter, but this matter has nothing to do with them. It was their son's idea.
I've advised him, but Zheng Wenwu won't listen.
But his son died in Ningxiang Tower in such a humiliating way. Zheng Kuan could not get rid of the anger in his heart, which grew more and more intense.
"Where is Wen Liang? Call him out to me." Zheng Kuan took a few deep breaths and said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Marquis Wu'an felt bitter in his mouth and said with gritted teeth, "My Lord, I have searched the entire Ningxiang Tower, but I have not found the woman named Wen Liang."
As he said this, he winked at the yamen runner.
The runner understood what was meant, brought the madam of Ningxiang Tower over and kicked her on the leg.
The madam cried out in pain and knelt in front of Zheng Kuan. She was so scared that she was sweating coldly. Her rouge and powdered face was smudged and looked very eye-catching.
"Greetings...Greetings to the Prince Consort..."
"How is it possible that we can't find him? Tell me, where did he go?" Zheng Kuan said with a gloomy face and gritted his teeth.
The madam was so frightened by his powerful aura that she trembled and wailed, "I don't know either. After Young Master Zheng came, Wen Liang went back to the room with him. It was not until someone screamed that I learned that Young Master Zheng was dead. Woo woo woo woo, I didn't know either. Please have mercy on me, Prince Consort."
That little bitch Wen Liang really killed me.
Originally thought to be a cash cow, but who would have thought it turned out to be a disaster.
It turns out that what comes to your door is not a good thing.
The madam was regretting so much that her intestines turned green.
"Humph, you are unaware. This is clearly a premeditated murder. Lord He, Lord Wang, even if you have to search the entire capital, you must find this woman."
Zheng Kuan said bitterly.
Marquis Wu'an and Lord Wang bowed together and said, "Yes."
After they finished speaking, they looked at each other, and both showed a hint of embarrassment.
If this was really a premeditated murder, this woman named Wen Liang was able to kill Zheng Wenwu under the eyes of so many people and escape in the shortest time. It is obvious that she is not a good person and it would not be so easy for them to find her.
But since the prince consort had spoken, they had no choice but to respond.
Zheng Wenwu is the emperor's nephew. It's possible that the emperor will be furious when he receives the news tomorrow.
Zheng Kuan glanced around with a cold gaze and said angrily, "Ningxiang Tower hid the murderer who plotted to murder the eldest princess' son. This is an unforgivable crime. Confiscate Ningxiang Tower and bring all the people involved back to the Dali Temple for strict investigation."
Someone has to be held accountable for his son's death. It doesn't make sense to let these people get away with it while civil and military officials died in vain.
It would be better for these people to tell us where Wen Liang is hiding, otherwise they will suffer.
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Ningxiang Tower was filled with cries and shouts.
Dozens of women burst into tears, and even the beauties found it hard to bear.
Moreover, Zheng Kuan's action was obviously to vent his anger, but facing the powerful, no one would pay attention to them even if they cried out for injustice.
Lord Wang, the Minister of the Dali Temple, immediately ordered the runners to take away all the people in Ningxiang Tower.
In an instant, the once bustling Ningxiang Tower became deserted and extremely lonely.
Zheng Wenwu was carried away by the servants in the princess's mansion, and several of them were almost killed by the stench.
Lord Wang hurriedly said something to Marquis Wu'an and rushed to the Dali Temple.
He won't have a peaceful night tonight.
The news of Zheng Wenwu's death in Ningxiang Tower spread throughout the capital like a gust of wind. By the next morning, almost everyone knew about it.
At the morning court session, Emperor Chengde was indeed furious. He ordered the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court to investigate the matter together, and restored Zheng Wenwu's title of Prince.
Chu Huining woke up the next morning. At this moment, the entire Princess Mansion was in ruins, and Zheng Wenwu's funeral hall had been set up. Chu Huining got angry and smashed the funeral hall: "How dare you! Who allowed you to arrange these things? My son is not dead. He is not dead."
She cried heartbreakingly and tore at the ground, her eyes were bloodshot and she looked like she wanted to eat someone, so no one dared to approach her. Finally, her daughter Zheng Wenshuang came forward and hugged her, crying, "Mom, mom, calm down. I'm scared if you do this."
Chu Huining was unwilling to admit the fact that his son was dead. He looked at everyone as the enemy who killed his son. He pushed Zheng Wenshuang hard and glared at her viciously: "Get out, you are not good people, all of you, get out of here."
"ah……"
Zheng Wenshuang was caught off guard when he was pushed, and fell backwards, with his forehead hitting the coffin, leaving a bloody hole.
The maids were frightened and panicked, and hurriedly took handkerchiefs to stop the bleeding. Zheng Wenshuang was dizzy and her face turned pale. The pain from her forehead made her angry. She covered her forehead with a handkerchief, stood up suddenly, and looked at Chu Huining angrily.
"Mother only has my eldest brother in her heart. Am I just someone picked up by Lu Bian? You feel bad about my eldest brother's death, and how can your daughter feel good too? Do you want your daughter to die too?"
Since childhood, her mother has always favored the eldest brother, but she never treated her badly, at least she loved her.
But just now, when she pushed him, she didn't consider her own safety at all. Zheng Wenshuang was angry and sad.
Chu Huining stared at his daughter in a daze for a moment, then fell to the ground and cried breathlessly.
As he cried, he ran out of breath and fainted.
The mourning hall suddenly became chaotic again, but at the same time it also made people feel relieved.
If the princess keeps making such a fuss, she might as well just stay unconscious. At least they have to get the funeral done.
Zheng Kuan rushed over after receiving the news. As soon as he came in, he saw his daughter's face covered in blood. Then he looked at the unconscious Chu Huining and his face was full of disgust.
"Help the princess back to her room. She is too sad. Make her some calming tea. She should rest well in the room for the next few days." He ordered with a cold expression.
Chuntao and the others were frightened and hurriedly took Chu Huining away.
The prince consort's intention was to prevent the princess from having the strength to step out of the room before the prince's funeral.
