Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 210
The snowy night was cold, and the fireworks gradually became lonely. Suddenly, there was a sound of trampling horseshoes from the other side of the long street.

Looking at the imperial guard guarding the palace gate, he saw a figure thicker than the night walking on the snow, accompanied by a clear voice: "This king has something to ask for His Majesty, step aside."

The imperial guards were shocked when they heard the words, and hurriedly retreated to the sides: "My subordinates will see the prince! You are finally back!"

Fu Mingjue's face was stern, and the brows seemed to be frozen with frost. After staying for a while, he rode his horse straight into the palace.

"My lord, you can't enter on horseback." Halfway through the words, I felt a gust of cold wind blowing in front of my eyes, and by the time I realized it, the people had already gone away.

Jiang Zhou who was following behind tore off the token from his waist and threw it to him, saying: "If Your Majesty asks the question, the prince will explain himself!" After finishing speaking, he rode away without giving the other party a chance to answer.

The man held the token, looked at the two people going away, frowned, and then ordered: "Quickly report to Your Majesty, King Jing has returned to Beijing."

"Yes!"

At that time, in Zhaoyang Palace.

After watching the fireworks, everyone returned to their seats.

The palace banquet is drawing to a close, and everyone should pay respects to Her Majesty the Queen Mother and leave.But at this moment, someone suddenly said, "Hey, why didn't you see Princess Jing?"

The voice was not loud, but it was enough to make everyone look at Ling Youyao's position at the same time - as expected, there was no one, even the maid who was accompanying her was gone.

The Empress Dowager looked a little displeased, and asked, "Has anyone seen Princess Jing?"

The palace people bowed their heads and remained silent, only a young maid standing in the corner stood up and said, "I seem to have seen Princess Jing and the maid walking away together. As for where I went, I don't know."

Fu Yunchuo frowned, vaguely feeling something was wrong.

The queen mother was dissatisfied, but because so many people were watching, she swallowed the breath back and said coldly, "Go and find Princess Jing."

"Yes."

Nanny Gui responded, and just as she took two steps, she suddenly heard another suspicious voice from the side of the hall: "Speaking of which, it seems that Shizi Shen has disappeared."

This sentence seemed to be like a stone falling into a calm lake, causing ripples in circles in an instant.

Concubine Jing and Shizi Shen disappeared at the same time, and everyone seemed to smell a bit of gossip.After all, before Ling Youyao got married, she had a close relationship with Shen Xuhuai.Back then when Shen Xuhuai knelt down at the palace gate for Ling Youyao, the city was full of uproar, now the two did not see each other, maybe they had a private meeting somewhere in the palace, not to mention that Fu Mingjue has not returned yet, maybe the two of them will rekindle their old relationship.

Everyone looked different, but they were thinking the same thing.

The queen mother is not stupid, so she naturally thought of it, and her complexion immediately sank: "Let people also look for Shen Shizi."

Nanny Gui didn't dare to delay, she complied and hurriedly led her down.

Fu Xiuyun on the side looked solemn, not because he felt that there was something between Ling Youyao and Shen Xuhuai.Instead, he was thinking, if Fu Mingjue came back and knew that something happened to Ling Youyao in the palace, Bao Buqi would do something out of the ordinary.

Thinking of this, he winked at Mr. Li beside him.

Mr. Li understood, and quietly retreated out.

Fu Yunchuo accompanied the Queen Mother, and said in a deep voice: "Queen Mother, it's getting late, why don't you let everyone go back first? We have to watch the New Year's Eve tonight, and the night is still long."

Everyone knew the deep meaning in her words.Isn't this just driving people away?If Ling Youyao really had an affair with Shen Xuhuai, wouldn't it be a good show to go back now?
Everyone was reluctant to leave, and Su Lingxi didn't want them to leave. If everyone left, who would show the play she planned so hard?
When Su Lingxi was about to speak, Director Li, who had just left Zhaoyang Palace, went back and forth, stepped into the palace in a hurry, and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Jing is back—"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and stretched their necks to look outside the hall.

I saw a man in black robes striding forward in the cold night, with a tall figure and a thin layer of frost between his brows and eyes, which made people feel daunted.When he reached in front of Fu Xiuyun, he stopped and knelt down to worship.

Fu Xiuyun was overjoyed, and said repeatedly: "Get up, Zilin, you are finally back!"

"I made His Majesty worry." Fu Mingjue said in a calm voice, and turned to greet the Empress Dowager: "My son is late, I hope the empress will forgive me."

Seeing Fu Mingjue, the queen mother had an indescribably strange expression on her face, and in the end she just said: "It will be good when you come back."

Fu Mingjue came back suddenly and killed everyone by surprise.Surprise is surprise, but more is excitement.Now that Ling Youyao and Shen Xuhuai have not been found yet, judging from the situation just now, the two of them are probably already together. Fu Mingjue may come back at this time, and maybe he will meet them privately.

The nobles in the capital never let go of any opportunity to watch the excitement, let alone the secrets of the royal family.

At this time, Su Lingxi also gradually calmed down from the panic when she saw Fu Mingjue for the first time. Instead of learning about it from others, she might as well see it with her own eyes, so that Fu Mingjue can see for herself what Ling Youyao is.

She suppressed the excitement in her eyes and turned her head to look for Xiaotang's figure, but she hadn't returned yet.Suddenly feeling uneasy, since Fu Mingjue was able to exceed her expectations and rush back to the capital on New Year's Eve, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents on Ling Youyao's side?
Just as Fang was about to leave, a young eunuch hurriedly walked in from outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager——no, it's not good!"

Fu Xiuyun said solemnly: "Why are you so flustered?"

The little eunuch knelt on the ground with a thump, his face was flushed, and he said with difficulty: "Young Master Liu from Uncle Zhongyi's residence was resting in Huayang Hall, but I went to see it just now, but found that Young Master Liu is gone!"

"What?!" Wu stood up with a "bang", as if she had been greatly frightened, "You said that Hong'er disappeared?"

The little eunuch trembled: "Yes, yes."

"My son—" Wu wailed, and without caring about anything else, she rushed out of the hall, leaving aside the nurse beside her.

This sudden outburst took everyone to their senses for a long time, but the Queen Mother was the first to react, and ordered: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and catch up!"

The palace people moved after hearing the sound, and hurriedly chased it out.

Fu Mingjue stood quietly at the side, looked around, then turned to Manager Li and asked, "Is the princess entering the palace today?"

Mr. Li was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and even his voice trembled: "Go back to the lord, the princess has been in the palace today, but..." He said, looking at Fu Xiuyun for help.

Fu Xiuyun's eyelids twitched, and he explained: "Just now I brought all the ministers to enjoy the fireworks outside the palace. I didn't pay attention for a while, and I don't know where the princess has gone. But don't worry, I have already sent someone to look for it, and I should be there later. There are results."

Fu Mingjue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he strode out of the hall without saying a word.

The Empress Dowager was already upset about Wu's matter, but seeing Fu Mingjue like this, she couldn't restrain her inner anger any longer, she stood up and walked down the steps, "I want to see where these inexplicable people have gone today." where!"

With the Empress Dowager taking the lead, the others also followed out of Zhaoyang Palace.But they didn't realize that there was no one in Su Lingxi's position at this time.
