Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 400 Escape? (1)
But at this moment, the carriage had already galloped by.

People from the White Lotus Sect have also arrived, and there are quite a few of them, men, women, young and old, who wear everything. The White Lotus Sect has penetrated into almost every industry and class.

As soon as they came, without saying a word, they started fighting with Jin Yiwei and the people from Zuojun Dudu's Mansion.

Both Fu Li and Huo Yuan wanted to go forward to chase the carriage, but they were blocked by someone, and they couldn't get rid of it for a while. Seeing that the carriage was running farther and farther, the two were extremely anxious.

Fortunately, at this time, reinforcements finally arrived.

They just got rid of the people who entangled them, Huo Yuan hurriedly led a group of people to chase after them on horseback, while Fu Li stayed behind and concentrated on dealing with the Bailian disciples.

And on the carriage where Su Wan was, at some point, there were two more people.

A man and a woman, an old woman in plain clothes, and a strong man in his early 30s, looked like a mother and child.

The strong man drove the carriage all the way out of the city gate. Although the gate guards saw the galloping carriage, they were killed by poison darts before they could stop it. Outside Zhengyang Gate, there were already a lot of people. Coupled with the influx of refugees from various counties in Northern Zhili, the population is larger and mixed with fish and dragons, it is too easy to hide.

Huo Yuan chased the carriage in front of him closely all the way. However, when he chased more than ten miles away, the injured horse finally couldn't support it and fell down. When he finally caught up, he found that the carriage was already empty. up.

Mrs. Chu was taken away.

This news quickly spread throughout the entire capital, and it could not be suppressed.

The Holy One was furious, and sent Fu Li, the commander of Jinyiwei, to go out of Beijing to search immediately. The Jinyiweis all over the country took action quickly.

Not only the Jinyiwei, but also all the government offices and guards across the country. Except for those who must stay behind and are not allowed to leave their posts, everyone else must do their best to assist the Jinyiwei in searching for people. They even sent local troops to destroy several White Lotus Sect lairs and The White Lotus Sect nunneries all over the country tried their best to arrest all the traitors of the White Lotus Sect, and the White Lotus Sect suffered heavy losses.

No one expected that His Majesty would make such a big move. One can imagine the status of Mrs. Chu in His Majesty's heart.Some people even speculated that if there were not many affairs and floods in the court, there must be an emperor sitting in the court, otherwise, His Majesty would have left Beijing long ago to find someone.

However, most people doubted whether Mrs. Chu could be rescued safely. Not to mention, Mrs. Chu was still pregnant, so even if she was rescued, the child might not be saved.Maybe her reputation will be damaged, and she will be disgusted by His Majesty. It can be said that everyone is not optimistic about Mrs. Chu's future.

Regarding Mrs. Chu's captivity, the women in the harem were the happiest. They were almost rejoicing and wished to celebrate immediately.

They even thought that God had a good eye to remove such a scourge for them.

Originally, they thought that they would live in the shadow of Mrs. Chu for the rest of their lives, and there would be no future for them, but they didn't expect that she would be kidnapped. At this moment, they were even a little grateful to the White Lotus Sect.

Even Empress Ning was so happy that she ate half a bowl of rice that night.

Nanny Gao was also very happy, and said to Empress Ning: "Your Majesty, you are the mother of a country, and God is still on your side."

Empress Ning nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I know that not everyone is so lucky to be favored by God."

She didn't believe that Mrs. Chu could escape the danger smoothly under such circumstances.

However, thinking that Emperor Xiande would go to great lengths to save Mrs. Chu, he still couldn't help but frowned and cursed secretly.

She pondered for a while, and said: "Your Majesty must be extremely worried about Mrs. Chu at this moment. I still have to restrain the concubines in the harem and pay attention to their behavior, lest they get carried away and be angered by His Majesty."

Empress Ning was right to worry, even though the day after Su Wan was taken away, when the concubines came to pay their respects, she sternly warned the concubines to be patient for now and not to provoke His Majesty.But there are still a few young concubines who, relying on their beauty, refuse to listen to advice, and coupled with the instigation of caring people, still can't help but seduce His Majesty, trying to seize the opportunity and become a favorite concubine in one fell swoop.

Originally, everyone thought that even if His Majesty vented his anger, he would just ground them, and the most serious thing would be to put them in limbo. Who knew, the Emperor actually ordered them to be killed on the spot without mercy.This move finally calmed down the concubines who were about to move around, and they no longer dared to provoke His Majesty rashly.

It doesn't matter if you don't have pets, if you lose your life, then you really have nothing.

Qinzheng Hall, the apse bedroom palace.

It was already very late, but Emperor Xian De still did not fall asleep, he stared at the roll of paper in his hand in a daze, and did not move for a while.

Seeing this, Yang Yong finally couldn't help but stepped forward and reminded softly: "Your Majesty, it's getting dark, it's time to go to sleep, and you have to go to court tomorrow."

Emperor Xian De's eyes moved slightly, but his figure did not move, he just asked: "Is there any news about Madam?"

Yang Yong could not help lowering his head slightly, and replied softly: "Your Majesty, there is no news about Mrs. Chu yet, but I believe that Mrs. Madam is auspicious and has her own aura, and with the blessing of Your Majesty's dragon power, she will definitely save the day."

At this time, it had been two days since Mrs. Chu was taken away, but Mrs. Chu seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no news was found at all.

In fact, Yang Yong didn't believe what he said, and he also thought that Mrs. Chu might be in danger, but at this moment, he absolutely couldn't say such a thing.

"I hope so." Emperor Xian De also knew that Yang Yong was only comforting himself, but the worry and anxiety in his heart had not been reduced by half, as long as he thought of the danger Wan'er might encounter, his heart would twitch The throbbing hurts, and a bloodthirsty desire arises in my heart, which I can't control no matter what.

Those concubines who came up to him simply ran into the knife's edge by themselves.

Emperor Xiande took a deep breath, suppressed the hostility rising in his heart, and asked, "Have all the epidemic prevention manuals been printed?"

Yang Yong also breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Many have been published and distributed to all prefectures and counties in Beizhili. Besides, they have been copied into bulletins, printed many, and posted everywhere. Order literate people to read every day."

Without waiting for Emperor Xiande to ask again, Yang Yong continued: "Even the three anti-epidemic prescriptions brought out by Madam have been urgently prepared by the Pharmacy Bureau. The imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital also said that Madam did not exaggerate. It is indeed a good first aid remedy, I praised Madam very much, I highly respect Madam in words!"

His Majesty personally ordered, and even paid close attention to the progress, who would dare to be lazy?

"Very good." Hearing this, Emperor Xian De was a little relieved, his brows slightly relaxed, he would not let Wan'er's hard work go to waste.
