The whole family travels with me

Chapter 299 Zhou Xuemei

King Chen was still waiting for news. He waited around and finally got Tang Cheng back, only to find him alone and in a very embarrassed state.

King Chen's face was very ugly, and he complained in front of all the civil and military officials, "Tang Cheng! I asked you to go to negotiate peace, why are you alone? Where is the peace envoy?"

Tang Cheng fell to the ground, trembling with fear, "Your Majesty, the ministers and the peace envoys arrived outside Yuncheng, but were stopped. The people in Yuncheng only allowed the peace envoys to pass, and the ministers and guards were not allowed to enter. city.

Wei Chen was worried that people from the Wei family would take the opportunity to detain the peace envoy, and was about to deal with the Wei family. Unexpectedly, a group of men in black suddenly came out and kidnapped the peace envoy.

Wei Qing just stood on the city wall and watched with indifference, and threatened to shoot Wei Chen if he didn't leave. Wei Chen went through a lot of hardships before he came back to report the news! "

"This is unreasonable!" King Chen slammed the table angrily, "The Wei family has gone too far to bully others! Are those men in black sent by the Wei family?"

Tang Cheng shook his head in fear, "Wei Chen didn't know that they hijacked the peace envoy and ran away from Yuncheng. Wei Chen thought they would enter Dragon City."

Gongsun Rong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, perhaps the Wei family is attacking in the east and west, so suspicion has been raised, and the peace envoy may already be in Yuncheng!"

King Chen thought the same way and was about to let people take over the Wen family.

Tian Huo, the commander of the Imperial Guard, brought Ruhua and Guixiang into the palace. "Your Majesty, the Imperial Guard found a carriage on the outskirts of the city. It has been confirmed that it was the carriage of the peace envoy. However, the peace envoy was nowhere to be found, and there were only these two people in the carriage. and a pool of blood.”

Guixiang and Ruhua were woken up. When they woke up, they looked frightened and shook their heads repeatedly, "Don't kill us, don't kill us!"

King Chen saw that something was wrong with Guixiang and asked the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat her. The result was that she was too frightened and went crazy.

Since the carriage was on the outskirts of the city, it meant that the other party was very likely to take Zhou Xuemei back to Dragon City. King Chen ordered a search, but the Wen family was turned upside down but not even a single figure was found.

The imperial guards went to the Zhou family again. Because they were brothers-in-law with the Wei family, everyone in the Zhou family was controlled by King Chen and locked up in the cold palace. The Zhou family had already been ransacked and sealed. The imperial guards made another trip. It's just to confirm whether any fish have slipped through the net.

Tian Huo and his men walked for a day without finding anything, and returned to Xiwuhou Mansion exhausted both physically and mentally.

Aunt Wen felt sorry for her son and came here specially, "But something happened in the court again?"

Tian Huo rubbed his brows tiredly, "It was the peace envoy Mrs. Wen who disappeared, and only two of her maids were found. Now the king suspects someone is in Longcheng. I have searched all the suspicious places and found nothing. If it happens again, If I can’t find anyone, I think the king will even suspect me.”

It is said that being with a king is like being with a tiger. He had never experienced this so deeply before, but now that he is with King Chen, he always feels like he will lose his head at any moment.

Aunt Wen's eyes darkened and she smiled gently, "No, just do your best. If you can't find it, then you don't have it."

"The king won't believe it! Forget it! You don't understand these things. Mother, please go back and rest."

Just as Tian Huo was halfway through speaking, there were bursts of sinister laughter in the distance. His brows instantly furrowed, "Ma'am, are you making trouble again?"

Aunt Wen looked calm and said, "It's not a matter of a day or two, so don't worry about it."

Ever since Tian Huai became seriously ill, Mrs. Wei has been crazy and suspicious. She doesn't allow anyone to approach Dongyuan, not even Marquis Xiwu. Occasionally she will go crazy and hurt people. Marquis Xiwu has no feelings for Wei, so he uses this as an excuse. Dongyuan was sealed off and no one was allowed to enter. If the Wei family's natal family was not still there and "Tian Huai" had not completely died, Marquis Xiwu would have already submitted a memorial to change the heir apparent.

After Aunt Wen left, Tian Huo tossed and turned, always feeling that he had missed something, but he couldn't think of a reason.

In the bleak Dongyuan, Mrs. Wei laughed until late at night. She laughed until she was exhausted before lying down. Aunt Xiping numbly helped Mrs. Wei to lie down, then hunched back to her room. In the secret room of Tian Huai’s study.

Zhou Xuemei didn't look at Tian Huai who was sitting opposite her until she couldn't hear the laughter. "Mrs. Xiwuhou seems to have been like this for a long time. Aren't you worried?"

Tian Huai looked indifferent and said seriously: "Sister-in-law, instead of being curious about my affairs, think about what to do next."

He and Wenjin are brothers, and Wenfu treats him and Wenjin equally, so he respects Wenfu as his elder brother. After knowing that Zhou Xuemei was pushed out by King Chen, he led his men to kidnap Zhou Xuemei without thinking. , just to get her out of the vortex, but this would make Zhou Xuemei's situation very embarrassing.

Zhou Xuemei smiled bitterly, "I don't know what to do. Does Prince Tian have any good ideas?"

Tian Huai glanced at her and took a deep breath: "My main purpose in entering the city is to save the Zhou family and the Wen family. I know that there is a secret passage in the cold palace leading to the suburbs of the city, but once the Zhou family escapes from the cold palace, the Wen family will I can't leave anymore, I wonder if my sister-in-law dares to take a risk for the Wen family?"

"What do you think we should do?" Zhou Xuemei clenched her fists, a flash of determination flashed in her eyes.

Tian Huai told everything about his strategy.

It's night, inside Ciyun Nunnery.

Gongsun Prajna had just finished washing a pile of nun's clothes with a dull face. Before she could take a breath when she returned to the room, she suddenly found a person lying on the floor. She was so frightened that she screamed loudly.

The nun who lived next door came over cursing, "Why are you making such a fuss! Don't you want to live anymore? You thought you were."

The nun who rushed over suddenly saw the person lying on the ground, and she was so frightened that she screamed, "Kill people, kill people!"

Gongsun Prajna's eyes widened instantly and he chased out angrily.

After a while, the abbot of Ciyun Temple rushed over. The two little nuns turned the man over on the ground and found that the other person turned out to be the peace envoy that King Chen was looking for when he mobilized the Imperial Guard. They were so shocked that they didn't know what to do. .

Someone ran to report to the official, and someone called Mrs. Wen over.

Mrs. Wen was so frightened by Zhou Xuemei's appearance that she rolled her eyes and fainted.

The nuns in Ciyun Nunnery only had basic medical skills and did not dare to treat the patient rashly. They waited until the officers and soldiers came to pick him up.

Because Zhou Xuemei was found in Gongsun Prajna's room, she was also taken away together.

In the main hall, King Chen looked at the imperial doctor coldly, "Is he still awake?"

The imperial doctor trembled like chaff and said, "Your Majesty, the peace negotiator was seriously injured. She has woken up, but she has been dizzy and vomiting. She can't answer any questions she asks."

"Where is Gongsun Prajna? What did she say?" King Chen looked at Gongsun Rong with a sinister look.

Gongsun Rong immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty! Prajna has been practicing hard in Ciyun Temple and working every day. She only goes back to the bedroom when she goes to bed. She doesn't even know how the peace envoy appeared in her room. There must be someone. If you are framed, please ask the king to order a thorough investigation by the imperial guards."

Tian Huo suddenly opened his eyes wide, scolding Gongsun Rong in his heart, and had no choice but to agree.
