048 Hideout

In Kant Palace, Empress Dowager Liu sat on the chair with a pale face, while Aunt Jinrong beside her was carefully pounding her legs.

"Empress, this matter is probably done by Chu Yu, and the purpose is to exchange it for the Chu family. I think she should not have the courage to hurt the Second Highness."

Empress Dowager Liu closed her eyes, only to feel her head buzzing.

It has been two days since they discovered that Lu Liunian was missing. Whether it was the guards or the secret guards, even the five cities of the military personnel were sent out to search and search, but there was no trace at all.

"What's the reaction from the emperor?" Empress Dowager Liu breathed a long sigh of relief and tried to calm her emotions.

She is old and if she is always angry, it is not conducive to health preservation.

Aunt Jinrong looked at Empress Dowager Liu carefully, then carefully said, "The emperor was furious when he heard that the second prince disappeared, and then anxious. It is said that the secret guards have sent out several groups."

Empress Dowager Liu finally nodded with satisfaction.

"Don't look at Your Majesty's love and indulgence for Liu Nian, but in his heart, what he cares most is the child born to Empress Chen. For us Liu Nian, we are not expecting him to become a talent. It is best not to fight with His Royal Highness the Prince."

Aunt Jinrong lowered her head and did not dare to talk to her.

As the two were talking, a girl in black walked in with her head down and looked carefully. It was the girl who came in to report the matter a few days ago.

"Empress, my subordinates have searched carefully in and outside the city, without the shadow of the Second Prince. Not only that, my subordinates also sneaked in the back house of the Chu family and the yard of the Rong Prince's Mansion, and did not find any clues."

The mood that Empress Dowager Liu had just calmed down was boiling again. She grabbed the teacup at her hand and threw it out, "How could such a big living person disappear if he didn't say he was gone? The Ai family believed that Chu Yu didn't have the courage to kill him. After all, he just hid him and waited to exchange with the Chu family."

"Empress, should we negotiate directly with Chu Yu?" The girl in black was a little anxious.

Empress Dowager Liu thought for a while, "No need, the Ai family needs to look for it again."

As soon as he finished speaking, a feather arrow shot in from outside and was inserted into the armrest of the chair without any bias. Empress Dowager Liu's face turned pale.

The girl in black chased her without saying a word. She was able to do such a thing in front of her, and her internal strength and lightness skills were quite impressive.

But after chasing her for a while, she couldn't even find the other party's traces. She had no choice but to return to Kant Palace quickly.

"Report to the Queen Mother, my subordinates did not catch anyone." The girl in black felt her face burning and wanted to poke her head into the ground.

Empress Dowager Liu ignored her, but looked at the sachet in her hand and her face turned blue with anger.

"Empress, this is the second prince's thing." Aunt Jinrong's face also became terrible.

When the girl in black heard this, she immediately raised her head and looked at the shaky sachet, feeling her face even warmer.

"Empress, Chu Yu is openly provoking. My subordinates will go to the Chu family to capture her."

Empress Dowager Liu looked at her coldly, "If you really have the ability to capture her, how could you let that assassin go away just now?"

The girl in black lowered her head again.

Empress Dowager Liu handed the sachet to Aunt Jinrong and ordered: "Look at the Chu family closely, don't do anything else for now."

She wanted to see how calm that girl could hold back.

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

In Feng'an Palace, Empress Chen had already known what had happened in the past few days. When she heard that the Second Prince disappeared for no reason, she guessed that it was Chu Yu's work.

Juxiang whispered from the side, "The Empress's body is important, don't worry about such trivial matters. The second prince is missing, not our prince."

Empress Chen couldn't say anything about her suffering, but she was worried about Chu Yu.

"The Emperor is here--" An Dehai's voice sounded outside the door, and Juxiang immediately greeted her.

As soon as Emperor Qinghe saw Empress Chen, he held her hand and asked quietly: "Do you know everything?"

Queen Chen nodded, then stepped away from all the eunuchs in the hall, then grabbed Emperor Qinghe's hand and asked, "Is it really Chu Yu done it?"

Emperor Qinghe nodded.

He had just confirmed with Gu Changqing that it was the girl who hid the person. Although he did not ask about the place of hiding, he realized that Lu Liunian was not injured and felt relieved.

Queen Chen not only knew about this, but she even knew about the arrest of the Chu family.

Seeing that she was a little excited, Emperor Qinghe hurriedly advised: "I have sent someone to find her in the Chu family, so don't worry, the queen."

Queen Chen was helped to sit down by the bed, thinking that life had never stopped since Chu Yu entered Beijing.

If something big happened, she didn't come to ask for help from her first time. Is this a kind of life?

Even if it is mother and daughter, there is still not much love.

"You have to take care of your belly now, and nothing else is the focus. I think Yu'er is a bold and careful girl, and she won't really make trouble."

"Your Majesty." A low voice came from outside the hall.

"Say." Emperor Qinghe did not avoid Empress Chen either.

"The subordinates found the trace of the Second Prince."

Emperor Qinghe and Empress Chen were stunned and asked in unison: "Where is it?"

"cemetery."

Queen Chen didn't breathe, and almost passed away.

Emperor Qinghe hurriedly supported her, and while helping her to carry her back, he ordered the secret guard outside the door: "Tell the Queen Mother the news."

"yes"

There was no sound outside the house, but Empress Chen looked puzzled, "If the Empress Dowager knew about this, Yu'er would have no bargaining chips."

Emperor Qinghe pondered: "Empress Dowager's business in the capital for decades, even if she doesn't tell her today, she will know tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. At that time, her anger accumulates to a certain extent, which is likely to really hurt Yu'er."

Empress Chen also understood this truth. If it weren't for her fear of Empress Liu's secret forces, they would have dealt with the old woman long ago.

"Now, I will tell the Empress Dowager about this matter. After Liunian returns, I will ask her for the whereabouts of the Chu family."

Queen Chen nodded in a clear way, "With that being said, do we need to send someone to inform Yu'er?"

Emperor Qinghe nodded and immediately ordered the secret guards to bring the news to the Chu family.

After a while of tossing, Queen Chen felt that her body was getting more and more uncomfortable. Seeing that she seemed to be dying, Emperor Qinghe hurriedly announced the imperial physician, while she was standing at the door and staring at the night outside the window in a daze.
