Planning to marry the third master

Prince Hui came to see the situation and asked as soon as he entered the study: "How is it? Is there any progress?"

Xie Yunxiao held the child and shook his head, feeling depressed. He stood up and walked out of the study, walked outside, looked around, and saw the anxious Old Zhou, so he put the child in Old Zhou's hands and said, "Take him to bed."

Old Zhou felt sad for a moment. Third Master didn't trust the people around his wife. He took the child in his arms, nodded, and comforted him, "Don't worry, Third Master. Madam will be blessed by heaven."

Xie Yunxiao was silent.

The first person to enter the study to be interrogated was Xiangyu.

Xiang Yu entered the study and saw King Hui. Her heart trembled for a moment, but then she calmed down immediately. She knelt down and said, "Your servant Xiang Yu."

Hu Cong asked, "Is there anything suspicious in your residence today?"

Xiang Yu shook her head and said, "No."

"When did the lady disappear?"

Xiang Yu paused deliberately, pretending to think, and then said, "It was already dusk when I found out."

"You didn't notice anything wrong?"

Xiang Yu said, "There are many things to do today, and Xiang Yu is still in charge, so I have not been able to rest."

Hu Cong was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, you can go out and call the next one."

"Yes."

Next came Xiangyun, Xiangyue, and Xiangcao. They were asked the same questions and gave similar answers. Xiangyun and Xiangyue were a little nervous, not as calm as Xiangyu, while Xiangcao was too calm, as if the loss of the general's wife was not a big deal. It is understandable that everyone has a different attitude when dealing with things.

Hu Cong was puzzled. These people were all Feng Zhuohua's capable men. It was impossible that none of them had noticed anything. The maid Ruyi before could tell when someone disappeared, but these people were obviously too vague.

Hu Cong pondered. He knew the origins of these people. He remembered Xie Yunxiao saying that they were uninvited people. There seemed to be an answer behind it, but he was not sure. After all, the two of them talked about almost everything. He said to Xie Yunxiao: "Let's stop here today. I will go back and think about what to do. You should rest well today and come back tomorrow to deal with it."

Xie Yunxiao frowned deeply. It was already this time, how could he still be in the mood to sleep? Thinking about how Hu Cong was not the kind of person who would do things halfway, he said, "You guys go back first and tell me to be quiet."

Instead, Prince Hui said, "How can it be left like this? The matter has not been clarified yet."

Hu Cong said, "It's not that we don't know it clearly. We have to have some clues before we start. I don't have any clues yet."

This made Prince Hui helpless. He asked, "Could it be someone sent by Prince Yu?"

Xie Yunxiao didn't think Prince Yu could get his hands on the General's Mansion, but Hu Cong said, "It's possible. I'll check the records of leaving the city later. There must be some clues to find."

King Hui said, "I'll go."

Hu Cong nodded and said, "Please trouble Prince Hui."

Prince Hui glanced at Xie Yunxiao. He was not in the right state at the moment. This was not what he wanted. He said, "I will go and come back soon."

Hu Cong nodded, saw Prince Hui off, and then left the general's mansion together.

Xie Yunxiao asked everyone to disperse, hid in the study and turned off the lights.

Not long after, Hu Cong came to the study again.

Xie Yunxiao sat quietly without saying a word.

Hu Cong relit the lights in the academy and said to the people outside: "Give orders that whoever finds anything unusual in the mansion will be rewarded."

Chao Yi went to do the work immediately.

It was already dark when Feng Zhuohua woke up. Her hands and feet were tied. What came into view was a tent. She turned her head and saw the person she feared the most. She immediately closed her eyes, but Prince Yu had already heard the noise.

Prince Yu just happened to see Feng Zhuohua closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, and he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are really funny."

Feng Zhuohua opened her eyes, knowing that she had to stay calm at this moment. She couldn't understand why Prince Yu's people were connected with Prince Hui's people. Before she could think about it, Prince Yu was already approaching.

Feng Zhuohua looked around, and then saw that Prince Yu was wearing armor, and couldn't help but ask: "Why did you arrest me? Where is this place?"

Prince Yu smiled and said, "You are quite capable. You approached me just for the sake of that Xie."

Feng Zhuohua widened his eyes and asked, "How did you know?"

Prince Yu came closer, but Feng Zhuohua didn't move. She was obviously very scared, but she pretended to be calm. Prince Yu smelled the scent of Feng Zhuohua. It smelled good, but it was hard to say what the smell was. It seemed that she smelled the best among all women. Then he moved his lips closer and touched her face lightly. Feng Zhuohua immediately dodged. This time she was really scared. She was like a fish on the chopping board, and she had no choice. He said, "You've gone to so much trouble, but you don't want a woman. Tell me, what is your purpose?"

As soon as the matter was brought up, Prince Yu spoke bluntly, "I want silver."

Feng Zhuohua looked at Prince Yu. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the conditions. He asked, "How much do you want?"

"All the money will come to you."

Feng Zhuohua frowned and said, "The money in the bank belongs to the people, not to me. If you let it go, I will give you my own money."

Prince Yu said in a deep voice: "Don't tell me that. Letting you go... Impossible! From now on, you are mine!"

As he said that, he pounced on Feng Zhuohua and attempted to do something indecent. Feng Zhuohua screamed wildly and kicked with her bound feet, crying out in fear: "Let go, let me go, ah...ow..." It was the first sharp scream in her life.

In the military camp, Prince Yu knew that it was not a good idea to do this. No one would be loyal to him if he came to the military camp to look for women. There were guards and patrols outside. He covered Feng Zhuohua's mouth and said, "Okay, I won't touch you, so don't scream."

Feng Zhuohua was so scared that tears came out of her eyes and nodded. Prince Yu felt like he had finally caught the rabbit.

Prince Yu let go and untied Feng Zhuohua, saying, "Don't even think about running away. Everyone outside is my people."

Feng Zhuohua nodded.

Her hands and feet loosened, Feng Zhuohua curled up in a corner. Inexplicably, she felt that she would not live long, and she wanted to die.

Being frightened just like this, Prince Yu couldn't help but say: "You are not very brave, but this is not like you before."

Feng Zhuohua was disappointed and said aggrievedly: "It is my bad luck to fall into your hands. If you do this to me again, I will die in front of you. I mean what I say."

"What's wrong with following me?"

"A good woman does not serve two husbands."

"Oh, you are also a person who is familiar with history books. Those women who are recorded in history stepped on men to get to the top. I don't despise you for not being innocent, but you despise me."

"Oh, Your Majesty doesn't mind people who are not innocent. I think there is already a woman like that in your family, and you have already lowered your bottom line. You don't care about these things, but I am different. I care. We are not the same kind of people."

Lower your bottom line easily? Prince Yu had never heard of this. He thought that he didn't care about women at all. He bent his lips and said, "It's just a woman. But the woman in front of him, for some reason, he didn't want to hurt her. He said, "Forget it. I can wait for you to figure it out and be willing."

She would not figure it out, nor would she be willing. She missed him and her children, and she didn't know how much time she had left. Thinking of being betrayed by those around her, she asked, "I know that Prince Yu and Prince Hui don't get along, but I don't know how Prince Yu could bribe Prince Hui's people."

Bringing Feng Zhuohua out was the task he gave to Fang Shilin, and he didn't know the process. Bribing the people of King Hui? He asked, "Do you have people of King Hui around you?"

Feng Zhuohua didn't know what to say, she just felt that she was unlucky. Don't let her go back alive, otherwise those people will make her pay the price.

Were Xiangyu and the others bribed, or was it Prince Hui's instruction?

Suddenly, thinking of something, Feng Zhuohua sat up and looked at Prince Yu with his eyes fixed on him, a myriad of thoughts running through his mind.

Prince Yu was still in a good mood and asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Zhuohua couldn't explain it. She felt that this time he was directed at Xie Yunxiao and also at Prince Yu. If Xie Yunxiao got angry, it could be fatal. He was the kind of person who loved to do things without regard for others. He would do something that even ten cows couldn't pull him back. He was the easiest to be taken advantage of.

Who is using you, Prince Hui?

What does he want to do?

I want Prince Yu to die...

Feng Zhuohua's eyes were fixed on something, and Prince Yu could see it, but did not disturb her.

To be honest, he felt that he understood the woman in front of him more and more. He didn't know what liking or admiring was before, but today, facing the woman in front of him, he felt a little bit of liking for her and was willing to indulge her without forcing her.
