Chapter 322 The Queen Mother Tells You Something

Chapter 322 The Queen Mother Tells You Something

The next day, Xia Hou took the title of the morning court, and went straight to Zhengyang Palace without even changing the court clothes.

He didn't finish what he said yesterday, and he still didn't know when the mother would take Li'er into the palace. After waiting day after day, he really couldn't wait any longer.

The empress was sitting in the hall with a headache, the matter of Rongli was really beyond her expectation, and she didn't sleep well last night.

Two big dark circles hung in the fundus of the eyes, and the queen's spirit was a little sluggish.

When Xiahou's title arrived, the queen was taking a nap on the imperial concubine's couch.

"See you, my lord," Qiuyan hurried over to pay his respects.

"What's wrong with the queen mother?" Xiahou was a little surprised to see the queen like this.

"Your Majesty didn't sleep well last night." Qiu Yan whispered, she was on duty yesterday.

"Then..." Xia Houxian was about to say, come back later, but the confused queen suddenly said, "Who's here?"

His voice was a little hoarse, because he had just woken up.

"Go back to your empress, Prince Duan is here to see you." Qiu Yan hurriedly walked to the side of the couch and helped the queen up.

"The sons and ministers see the queen mother." Xiahou saluted.

"Xiao'er?" The queen hurriedly beckoned, "How long have you been here? Sit down."

While calling Xia Hou to sit down, the queen ordered Qiu Yan to serve tea.

"Mother, don't be busy. My son is just here to see you, so I will leave after a while." Xia Houxian hurriedly said, he doesn't want to eat at all now, he just wants to finish his thoughts.

The queen smiled, she had just slept for a while, and her spirits recovered a bit. At this moment, when she thought about why Xia Houlian came, she probably had an idea in her mind, "Okay, the queen mother is very pleased when she knows that she came to see her."

After speaking, she looked at him lovingly and smiled.

Xiahou smiled on his face, in fact, if he hadn't asked for something, he rarely went in and out of Zhengyang Palace on weekdays.

The queen has always been a strong person, and she has been strict with Xiahou's title since she was a child. Although it has no effect, it depends on who she compares with. Compared with other princes, Xiahou's title is still outstanding.

Xia Houxian's life from childhood to adulthood has been arranged by the queen, and in the process of growing up, he basically has the shadow of the queen.

Therefore, when getting along with the queen, Xia Houxian felt an invisible pressure and silent resistance in his heart.

Ever since he grew up and built his own mansion, Xia Houxian tried to reduce the chances of meeting the queen as much as possible.

After all, who wants to be bound after experiencing the taste of freedom?
Hearing what the queen said at this time, Xiahou felt a little uncomfortable on the face, he held the teacup and drank tea to cover up his embarrassment.

After putting down the teacup, Xia Houlian adjusted his facial expression, "It is the son's duty to come and see the queen mother. Why is the queen mother not in a good spirit today? But what happened?"

Xia Houlian thought about quickly changing the topic, but it turned out that he just gave the queen a good topic.

"Hey," the queen sighed helplessly, and then looked at Xia Houxian with some embarrassment, "The queen mother has something to tell you, so don't worry."

Xia Houxian nodded slowly, feeling a 'thump' in his heart, for no reason, he felt that what the queen was about to say had something to do with Li'er.

As it turns out, he guessed right.

"Rongli...is gone." After finishing speaking, the queen looked closely at Xia Houlian, for fear that he would do something out of the ordinary.

The queen said the matter directly because she had her own plan.

She wanted Rongli's life before, in order to make Xia Houlian give up on Rongli, so that she could focus on fighting for the throne.

Now that Rongli is gone, although the process is different, the result is the same. She doesn't believe that Xia Houlian can still have thoughts when the person is gone, so she tells about Rongli's disappearance.

"What?!" Xia Houxian stood up in a 'bass', and said in disbelief, "How is it possible?"

"Don't be in a hurry," the queen pulled him to sit down, and said in a slow tone, "Didn't you ask the queen mother to pick Rongli into the palace yesterday? Then your father came, although you didn't say anything , but the queen mother knew that you were anxious, so as soon as you and your father left, the queen mother sent someone to the Rong Mansion to pass the decree."

"Later, the queen mother waited in the palace, but she didn't come when she waited left or right. The queen mother was really worried, so she sent Qiuyan over to have a look, but who knew that the housekeeper of Prince Zhan's mansion said that Rongli left early in the morning. I went out and haven't come back yet."

The queen paused, looked at Xia Houjian's frown, and continued, "Qiu Yan asked people to stay at Zhanwang's mansion, and came back to report by herself. The queen mother thought, maybe Rongli is bored at home alone, and went out for a stroll." There is also some shopping, so you can’t go shopping until dinner time?”

"So the person who passed the decree was not called back. As a result, not only did they not come back before dinner, Rongli still disappeared until the palace gate was about to close. Knowing that Rongli hasn't returned for a day, no one knows where she went?"

The empress had finished what she was supposed to say, and the rest depended on what Xiahoulian thought.

Xiahou heard that the whole person felt as if he was in an ice cellar, and Li'er disappeared...

If she hasn't returned for a day, where can she go?

Xia Houxian had a vague guess, but forcibly erased it from his mind, it must not be like that!

Li'er must have played too much and ran away.

Yes!

Xiahou's eyes lit up, "Did the queen mother send someone to look for it? The Rong family and the Zhan Wang's mansion both have a lot of property, presumably when Li'er married, the Rong mansion gave her a lot of Zhuangzi, will she live in the Zhuangzi?" gone?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely this was, and the smile on Xia Houxian's lips gradually grew wider, "I will send someone to look for it."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the queen to say anything else, she left Zhengyang Palace.

The queen subconsciously stretched out her hand, wanting to keep him, but Xia Houlian didn't give her this chance at all.

Sighing, what a crime, why are you still entangled?

He thought to himself: Let her disappear if Rongli disappears, why is Lier so stubborn? !

But what Xia Houxian said reminded her, the queen waved to Qiuyan, whispered a few words, and let Qiuyan do it.

She must find Rongli before Lier'er, otherwise there will be endless troubles!

After Xiahou returned to the mansion, he directly mobilized the capable people and strangers he had recruited in his mansion. At this special moment, it was necessary to use these talents, even if the truth was revealed, he would not hesitate.

Wanyue is eating bird's nest in the backyard, her skin has been a little rough recently, and she is always tired, how can she do without supplements.

At this moment, Xiahou returned to the mansion after hearing the report from his subordinates.

She felt nauseous for no reason, put the porcelain bowl in her hand on the table in disgust, and wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief.

He waved his hand and told the person who reported to back down.

Now the women in the backyard of Prince Duan's Mansion are almost wiped out by Aunt Chen, and Chen Lian's role is pretty much gone.

Wan Yue thought, in the past few days, when the last two or three women were raped, she would directly send Chen Lian away. It was the most merciful thing she could do if she didn't take action to rectify it.

In addition, Wanyue picked up the scroll at hand, and what was written in it was not ordinary content, but information about the princes of Tianqi.

Since she is an ally, she must be ambitious and resourceful, otherwise she might as well go on her own if she finds a softie!

The candidates were narrowed down to two, but she had to think again about who to choose.
