Yue Lao could only rush to the Huailin Pavilion again. The rain was too heavy, and the umbrella was as if it had never been there before. Her clothes were mostly wet, and the rain stuck to her body made her shiver. But, she couldn't care less about anything. The one who was missing was the wangfei, not a chicken, and she couldn't wait for even a moment. When she reached the second door, she saw that Xiao Kuzi wanted to stop her.
Yue Lao glared at him. "This matter concerns the safety of the wangfei, why don't you try and stop one of them?"
Her face was gloomy, her gaze was sharp, actually scaring Xiao Kuzi, who stood there watching as she barged in.
Yue Gui told Qi Hong about what happened and the two of them started to get anxious. Lv He pointed at Yue Gui's nose and cursed, "You're really good, you lost your master, why didn't you lose yourself?
I was careless. The princess is going out, and I should have followed her." It's all useless for me, wuu …
Qi Hong shouted, "Is this the time to talk about this? Hurry up and go look again! If we can't find the wangfei, everyone can't live anymore! "
Yue Gui wiped away her tears. "This servant went to ask the Lateral Princess previously and asked her to bring out everyone in the mansion. But since the palace is so large, how are we supposed to find them with just the few of us …"
Lv He said angrily, "I will go look for her. When the Prince asked her to control the inner chamber, she really thought she was the true master. Now that the wangfei has disappeared, who knows how happy she will be!" Then he plunged into the rain and left in a rage.
Yue Gui hurriedly chased after her with an umbrella. Qi Hong gathered all the people from Huailin Pavilion together and sent them to the backyard to look for the princess. Regardless if the Lateral Princess sent people or not, she would have to look for him first.
When Lv He arrived at Fallen Star Pavilion, she directly rushed in, and Qiu Wen came out, and just cried out: "Scram!"
Qiu Wen got scolded for no reason. She was unhappy and stopped her in her tracks, "No matter how much more prestige Miss Lv He has, she is still a servant, and not a master. Don't lose your sense of propriety."
Lv He was burning with anxiety. She raised her hand and slapped him with her palm, her eyebrows raised up and her almond eyes opened wide, "Can you afford to waste my time?"
Qiu Wen covered his face with a hand. His face was filled with shock and she was unable to recover from her shock for a moment.
Xiu Yuanshuang came out after hearing the news, his face was gloomy, "Miss Lv He has such a good temper, coming to my place to beat people up." She was initially courteous to Lv He, but when Lv He attacked the most capable servant girl by her side, even if he does not give her face, there is no need for her to pretend to be courteous.
Qiu Wen's eyes were bloodshot, she threw herself at Xiu Yuanshuang's feet, "Master, please make the decision for this servant, she barged in without saying a word, raised her hand and beat her, she did not place master in her eyes at all …"
Lv He laughed coldly, "Don't talk about this with me. But now that the princess was missing, why did the Lateral Princess not send anyone to look for her? It's already so late and the rain is still pouring down. If something were to happen to the princess, would the Lateral Princess be able to handle it? "
Xiu Yuanshuang said, "What can happen in the palace? It's just that it's not as heavy as you said it would be because of the rain. Where did the princess go to avoid the rain? "
"Lateral Princess probably doesn't understand our wangfei. If wangfei doesn't carry hunger, even if knives fall from the sky, she will still rush back at meal time. It's already so late and the rain is tight, wouldn't Lateral Princess be worried? "Before His Highness left, he handed over this house to you. If something happened, how would you explain yourself to His Highness?"
She did not care what happened to Bai Qianfan, but Morong Gan trusted her, and handed over the authority of the inner chamber to her. If something went wrong, she would not be in a good position to act.
"You don't need to use the prince to pressure me. If the wangfei really does disappear, I'll naturally send people to look for her," she said as she called for the little girl. "Go to the front courtyard and call the stewards over."
The little girl agreed and turned around to leave.
When Lv He saw that she had called for the steward, she thought of finding the wangfei and relaxed his expression. She then squatted down and said blissfully: "This servant was quite rude before, so don't take the Lateral Princess to heart. When the prince returns, this servant will go up to him and take his punishment."
Xiu Yuanshuang didn't want to break off all decorum with Lv He, since Lv He gave her a way out, she had to go down the slope as well, "Young lady is too serious, young lady is also in a rush, at the moment she is looking for an imperial concubine, young lady should complain about her, you shouldn't go home when it's dark, let your little temper act recklessly, I don't know how worried everyone is."
As Xiu Yuanshuang's words left Bai Qianfan's mouth, Lv He and Yue Gui could only bear it and remain silent. Right now, they were begging her to find someone else to do it.
Lv He and Yue Gui were extremely anxious. Seeing that the Lateral Princess had promised to look for the culprit, they did not stay for long, so they bowed and took their leave.
Once they had left, Qiu Wen asked, "Master, do you really want to help me find the wangfei?"
Xiu Yuanshuang picked up her tea cup and drank some water, "What else can I do if I don't look for him? It looks like the prince is about to return. Bai Qianfan is purposely giving this concubine a stumbling block so that this concubine will lose face in front of the prince. "
Qiu Wen said sinisterly: "What the hell, she was originally unlikeable at the Prime Minister Bai's Mansion, but now, she is in the Prince Chu Palace, causing trouble. A few days ago she lost her chicken and caused a complete mess, and today she lost herself again.
Xiu Yuanshuang sighed, "No matter what, it's still an imperial concubine. We still have to do something for face, after all, we have done our best, and just don't let others talk about it."
Xiu Yuanshuang said slowly: "It's too late to call everyone here, everyone is troubled, but there's no helping it, the wangfei has disappeared to some place to hide, it's raining at night, and when the people in her courtyard ask for me here, I can't ignore them either. I'll have to trouble everyone and send my servants to look around."
Several stewards immediately replied, "Serving Lateral Princess is part of our duty. We will call everyone over immediately, even if we have to search through the whole palace, we have to find an imperial concubine."
"We don't need to cause too much trouble. We just need to do our best and search for them."
The stewards obediently bowed and left.
Soon, torches filled with turpentine lit up in the dark night, like dragons of fire swimming in all directions.
The rain gradually stopped, but the wind was even stronger. It caused the fallen leaves to flutter about, adding a sense of desolation to the gloomy and gloomy rainy night.
Xiu Yuanshuang stood on the pavilion, looking at the fire dragon in the distance, her eyes cold and her expression gloomy.
Qiu Wen quietly walked over and said, "Master, it is late in the night, you should sleep. You've already done your best, whether or not the princess is fortunate or not has nothing to do with you. Even if the prince comes back, he won't blame you. "
Xiu Yuanshuang smiled indifferently, "Whether she is dead or alive, of course it has nothing to do with this concubine.
