who got my reward

Chapter 155 The Empress and Jasmine! (Part 3)
This is a rather luxurious palace.

In the hall, sandalwood is used as beams, crystal jade is used as lamps, and a huge moon bead hangs on the top, shining like a bright moon, and filled with a faint fragrance.

Prince Lian, Zhang Houcheng, waited respectfully in the hall, not daring to take a breath.

After a long time, there was a sound of bead curtains being pulled in the inner room. At the same time, the hall became a bit more oppressive, as if even the flowing air was stagnant.

Zhang Houcheng's already bent back became a little lower, and a few drops of sweat rolled down his forehead.

"My minister sees Her Majesty the Empress!"

Zhang Houcheng knelt on the ground.

"Say."

A cool and pleasant voice came from the inner room, like pearls falling on a jade plate, with a majesty that was irresistible.

Zhang Houcheng didn't dare to raise his head, and said in a deep voice, "His Majesty the Empress, I just learned that Princess Luoxiang of Yunze Kingdom disappeared suddenly on the way, and her whereabouts are still unknown."

"How did it disappear?"

The Queen's voice remained indifferent.

Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Houcheng's head: "According to Governor Zhang, when they escorted Princess Luo Xiang to Tianzi Peak, the princess suddenly felt unwell, so Governor Zhang camped to rest.

But later, when the princess went to do something convenient, she knocked out her maidservant and jumped directly into the "One Heart River" next to Tianzi Peak.

When Zhang Dushi and others noticed it, Princess Luo Xiang had long since disappeared.

Governor Zhang hurriedly sent people to search along the way, fearing that the princess would commit suicide, but they searched half of the river basin, but still did not find the princess.

Later, after asking the maidservant, I learned that Princess Luoxiang's water quality is very good, maybe... Maybe it was a premeditated escape. "

After Zhang Houcheng finished speaking, the hall fell into silence.

His heart was uneasy.

After all, Dushi Zhang is his man, and he strongly recommended him to escort the princess back then, but now that this situation happened, if the queen got angry, the consequences would be disastrous.

"This girl is quite interesting."

The queen said lightly.

Hearing that the Queen's tone was not angry, Zhang Houcheng breathed a sigh of relief, and said quickly:
"Weichen has already dispatched the Xuanjia Camp to conduct a careful search, and asked the prefectures and counties to conduct strict inspections on the foreign population. I believe that Princess Luoxiang will be found soon, and the scheduled wedding date will also be caught up!"

The queen was silent for a moment, and said, "Did Prince Gong know the news?"

"I already know."

"What's the reaction?"

"Ah...very angry, but the prince seems to be very happy." Zhang Houcheng hesitated, and said softly.

The queen snorted softly, and said with a little sarcasm: "The prince likes Moli, and has always expected me to marry Moli to him, but now I let him marry Princess Luo Xiang, so he is naturally unhappy."

"Princess Moli is peerless. All the princes of the empire love her and hope to marry such a perfect woman."

Zhang Houcheng said with a smile.

"Including your son?" the queen said lightly.

The smile on Zhang Houcheng's face froze, knowing that he was a bit carried away, he quickly said: "The dog is incompetent, not worthy of Princess Moli."

"Let's get down to business."

The queen's voice became a bit tired, "The reason why I agreed to the marriage request of the emperor of Yunze Kingdom is to make up for that incident back then. It's a pity."

Hearing this, Zhang Houcheng's expression was a little complicated.

When the Fenglei Kingdom invaded the Yunze Kingdom back then, the momentum was like a rainbow. When the country was in danger, Queen Yunze went to the Middle Earth Empire for help.

At that time, the empress was in retreat, and when she had nowhere to ask for help, Queen Yunze chose to sacrifice herself and slept with several ministers before she pulled Yunze Kingdom out of the deep mudflat.

After returning to the country, the queen, unable to bear the accusations of the ministers, left Princess Luoxiang who was only five years old and chose to commit suicide.

After the Queen Leng Qingyan found out about this, she was somewhat embarrassed and angry.

As a woman, Leng Qingyan sympathized with what happened to Queen Yunze, not only dismissed those ministers, but also allocated a large amount of resources to Yunze Kingdom to help them rebuild.

Marrying Princess Luo Xiang to Prince Gong's son now is to show an attitude.

In the future, the Middle Earth Empire will be the backing of Yunze Country.

Who would have thought that Princess Luo Xiang would run away halfway, making people dumbfounded.

Zhang Houcheng pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, if you can't find Princess Luo Xiang, how about..."

"Okay, I already know about this matter, you go down first, I will make my own decision."

The queen's tone became a little more impatient.

Zhang Houcheng's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly saluted: "The minister will retire first."

After Zhang Houcheng left, the empress said lightly: "Call Moli."

"Yes."

The head guard nodded and left in a hurry.

Soon, Moli, dressed in palace attire, entered the hall.

Moli wore a light blue brocade dress, a silk skirt with pleats and flowers, and a pair of small leather boots with carved patterns, making her look heroic.

Matched with her peerless face, it is quite eye-catching.

"You know everything?"

The queen's voice was not as indifferent as before, it was much softer.

Moli nodded her head: "Understood, it seems that Princess Luo Xiang is not willing to marry Prince Gong's son."

"Whether she will marry or not is not up to her to decide."

the queen said softly. "I called you here because I want you to do one thing. You help Prince Lian and the others find Princess Luoxiang. You don't need to help too much, just assist."

Moli raised her eyebrows: "Your Majesty, what you mean is that Princess Luo Xiang was deliberately let go by Prince Lian and the others?"

"Whether he was let go on purpose, I still can't draw a conclusion, but...lost someone at this juncture, it's hard not to make people suspect that there is something tricky in it."

The queen said lightly, "It doesn't matter if you cooperate with them in finding someone or not."

Moli frowned: "But the wedding date is two months away."

"I know, you just have to do what I tell you. Princess Luo Xiang can go missing forever, but this engagement must be postponed."

The queen said slowly.

Moli nodded lightly: "Yes, Moli will go get ready now."

Just when she was about to step away, the queen's voice suddenly came from the inner room: "Moli, is there a man you like?"

Moli was startled, obviously a little surprised that the other party asked this question suddenly.

The queen's voice was lonely: "If you like someone, just tell me, I treat you like a daughter, and I have always been reluctant to marry you off, but... I am not a selfish person.

If you have someone you like, I will set you free. "

Moli was silent for a while, a charming smile bloomed on her pretty face: "Your Majesty is worrying too much, Moli hasn't been tempted by any man yet."

While speaking, the figure of Qin Muchen could not help appearing in her mind.

Shaking his head slightly, he dispelled the figure from his mind.

The empress sighed: "I have been having the same dream for the past few years, in which there is a three-year-old child who has been chasing me.

I wanted to hug him, but found that I couldn't get close.

After waking up, tears were all over the pillow cover, as if a piece of flesh in my heart had been dug out. "

Moli quietly listened to the Queen's confession without saying a word.

"Moli, the reason why I have always favored you is because I feel a kind of closeness from you."

The queen said softly, "This kind of intimacy cannot be given by others. If possible, I hope you can stay with me until... I die."

Moli bit her lips lightly, and asked in a low voice: "Is His Majesty's condition getting worse?"

After hearing the empress's silence for a long time, she said softly, "I will always be with you."
