Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 381 Interrogation
"I heard from Xiao Fei that you were assassinated last night. Are you injured?" the emperor asked with concern.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Yun Hao bowed.

"That's good. Did you find out anything during the interrogation?" asked the emperor.

Yun Hao shook his head solemnly and replied, "Your Majesty, the assassin is very tight-lipped and has not confessed yet."

"Jingyao, you are the commander of the Dragon Court Guard and the person I trust and rely on the most. You must always be vigilant and protect yourself. I don't want to hear any news of you being assassinated again." The emperor said solemnly.

"I will pay attention and strengthen the guards." Yun Hao replied respectfully.

"It was thanks to you that we were able to find out about Lin Da's robbery of grain and grass. As for Prince Bao, please do your best to find him as soon as possible." The emperor was a little disappointed with the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice. They could not find grain and grass, nor could they find anyone. They seemed extremely useless.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will do my best to find Prince Bao as soon as possible." Yun Hao stood up and said.

The emperor looked at Yun Hao, his eyes full of admiration and trust. "I have ordered all states and counties to conduct a strict investigation and report any news immediately. But I am afraid that they are not doing their best. You can send more people out to search and make sure to find him as soon as possible."

In fact, Yun Hao suspected that Prince Bao was not missing, but was murdered by Prince Xianli.

But without evidence, he couldn't say anything. After thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I will follow your instructions and send more people to look for Prince Bao. However, I think we need to start from another aspect."

The emperor looked at Yun Hao in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, I suspect that Prince Bao's disappearance is related to Prince Xianli." Yun Hao needs the emperor's consent if he wants to interrogate Prince Xianli.

The emperor hesitated for a moment and said, "You are right. Lin Da is in prison now. You go and interrogate him."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yun Hao left the imperial study.

Yun Hao went to the prison and escorted Prince Xianli into the prison. He did not rush to interrogate him. He ordered the jailer to keep a strict watch on him and went home. He promised to have dinner with Zhao Wangshu.

A gentleman keeps his promises, especially to his wife.

When Yun Hao returned home, he saw Zhao Wangshu sitting in the study, sipping tea and flipping through an ancient book, looking quiet and leisurely.

"Madam." Yun Hao stood outside the door and called softly.

"You're back." Zhao Wangshu looked up and saw Yun Hao, a smile flashed in his eyes. He put down the ancient book in his hand, stood up and greeted him.

"I will not break my promise to you." Yun Hao smiled and put his arm around Zhao Wangshu's waist. "Is your son asleep?"

"Well, he's about to wake up." Zhao Wangshu smiled gently.

Zhao Wangshu took care of Xiao Yunyu's daily routine.

He woke up at 3:15 a.m. every day. His wet nurse would feed him morning milk and then carry him around the yard. She would wait for Zhao Wangshu to get up, give him a bath, and apply milk powder on him.

At the beginning of the Si hour, have the second feeding and then take a nap for half an hour.

When he wakes up, he drinks the third feeding. He plays until noon, drinks the fourth feeding, and sleeps for half an hour. When he wakes up, he drinks the fifth feeding. He plays until 3 p.m., drinks the sixth feeding, and sleeps until the third quarter of the evening.

At night, Zhao Wangshu would play with him until the beginning of the night, and then let the wet nurse feed him once at night to put him to sleep.

The little guy can sleep until 3:15 am the next day.

Zhao Wangshu often hugged his son and sighed, "My dear, you are really an angel baby. You really care about your mother."

Hand in hand, the couple went to the east room for dinner. The steaming dishes on the table gave off an enticing aroma.

The two sat opposite each other. Zhao Wangshu served Yun Hao a bowl of soup and said softly, "Try this. I specially asked the kitchen to stew it for you."

Yun Hao took the bowl, blew away the hot steam, picked up the soup spoon and scooped some water, a satisfied smile on his face, "Mm, it's really delicious. What kind of soup is this?" "This is pigeon soup, good for your health." Zhao Wangshu explained with a smile, his eyes full of concern, "You have been busy with government affairs recently, please take care of yourself."

"As long as you are by my side, I will be fine." Yun Hao looked at her affectionately.

Zhao Wangshu picked up a piece of fresh fish and put it in his bowl. "This is the fish that was just caught from the river this morning. It's very fresh. Try it."

Yun Hao picked up the fish, put it in his mouth, and savored it carefully.

The fish meat is extremely delicious and melts in your mouth, leaving you with an endless aftertaste.

He also picked up a piece of fish and put it in Zhao Wangshu's bowl, "You eat too."

The couple finished their dinner affectionately and then strolled side by side in the garden behind the yard.

The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on the two of them and reflecting their happy figures.

Yun Hao gently held Zhao Wangshu's hand and said, "Madam, you have worked hard these days."

"Don't say that. Just focus on handling government affairs, and I will take care of the household affairs. This is what they call a husband and wife working together can accomplish anything." Zhao Wangshu responded playfully.

The couple took a walk in the garden for a while and then returned to the room, just as the little one woke up.

The little guy didn't want Yun Hao to hold him, Zhao Wangshu smiled, "This is daddy, our little Yun Yu's daddy. He came back this morning and held you to play, don't you remember?"

"Come here, son, let daddy hug you." Yun Hao clapped his hands.

The little guy was very sensitive to his father's voice. He seemed to recognize it and gave Yun Hao a toothless smile.

Yun Hao held the little guy over. The little guy immediately stretched out his two little hands and tightly grasped Yun Hao's collar. His big black eyes stared at Yun Hao curiously.

"Little Yunyu, I'm your daddy, come on and call me daddy." Yun Hao teased his son.

Zhao Wangshu sat on the couch and laughed, "He's only two months old. It's too difficult for him to ask him to call you daddy."

The little guy couldn't speak yet, he just opened his mouth and smiled, drooling. Yun Hao didn't mind, he just wiped it off with his sleeve.

Zhao Wangshu curled his lips, "Both father and son are filthy."

"What should we do, son? Does your mother dislike us?" Yun Hao asked with a smile.

Zhao Wangshu let Yunhao tease her son. She asked the maid to prepare hot water and went to take a bath.

That night, Yun Hao hugged his wife and had a good sleep.

The next day, he went to the prison in high spirits to interrogate Prince Xianli.

As soon as he left, Princess Cao of Xianli County came to visit.

Zhao Wangshu was helping his son take a bath. When she heard Lan Fen's report, her brows slightly frowned. Of course she knew that Prince Xianli was taken to prison by Yun Hao yesterday.

But I didn't expect that Princess Xianli would come to me so soon.

"Please ask her to have tea in the flower hall in front. I'll be there soon." Zhao Wangshu wiped the water off her hands with a handkerchief and asked Lvzhi and the others to help her change into clothes to meet guests before going to the front.

In the flower hall, Princess Xianli looked out the door anxiously, twisting the pendant under the round fan in her hand.

Zhao Wangshu went in and bowed, "Greetings, Princess of the County. Why did you come to see me so early in the morning?"

"Madam Yun, let's not beat around the bush. I think you know exactly why I came here today." Princess Xianli went straight to the point.
