Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

On the day Lin Changning returned home, Chen Xi arrived at Zhongyong Hou Mansion early in the morning.

There were naturally many guests in the Zhongyong Hou Mansion today, and Lin Changqing and Chen Xi were the focus of everyone's attention. Before Lin Changning and Tan Yuxuan came back, they had already started to chat with each other.

After Lin Changning and Tan Yuxuan returned, they visited Lin Guangxiao and Chai, and the homecoming ceremony was officially concluded.

Then Lin Changqing took Tan Yuxuan and Lin Changsheng around to toast, while Chen Xi and Lin Changning Ji Siyuan accompanied the ladies in the backyard.

Halfway through the banquet, Xiao Yaoyao soiled her clothes. Chen Xi asked someone to take her down to change clothes, but in fact, a carriage at the side entrance of Zhongyong Hou Mansion had already quietly left.

After a while, Chen Xi said he wanted to see his daughter, so he left the banquet without anyone noticing anything was wrong.

When someone among the guests noticed that Chen Xi had not shown up for a long time, they couldn't help but ask twice. Then Ji Siyuan comforted Lin Changning who was going to check, and went to check himself. Not long after, he came back and said that it was the young lady from the Lin Mansion who just I'm not happy to lose my temper, the princess is trying to coax her!

Then everyone couldn't help but talk about the children and tease Lin Changning, and the scene became lively again.

At this time, until the banquet was about to end, Chen Xi did not show up, and the guests realized that something might have happened.

But everyone didn't think too much about it. After all, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion was considered the home of Princess Huaishan. What big things could happen to her in her own home?

At this time, the guests began to leave one after another, the carriages left one after another, and the spies who were secretly watching began to become anxious.

Master Lin is still in the front yard, but Princess Huaishan and her daughter are missing!

Have you always stayed in Zhongyonghou Mansion?

Today, Tan Yuxuan was so drunk that he couldn't leave at all, so he had to be helped to sober up.

So there were only Lin Changqing and Lin Changsheng in the front yard, seeing off guests together with Marquis Zhongyong.

Although the secret whistle was worried, Lin Changqing was still there, and they couldn't really stop all today's guests and check one by one to see if the missing Princess Huaishan was in the carriage, so they could only keep a close eye on Lin Changqing, as long as If he doesn't leave, there is a high probability that County Lord Huaishan and his daughter will be in Zhongyonghou Mansion.

But seeing that all the guests in Zhongyonghou Mansion were almost gone, some drunken adults were left holding Lin Changqing's hand to express their loyalty to the emperor. They still did not hear the accurate news from Zhongyonghou Mansion, and secretly whistled Finally, he was really anxious and immediately sent the information to the forces behind it!

In the end, until the gate of Zhongyong Hou Mansion was closed and Lin Changqing did not leave the Hou Mansion, everyone realized that things were not simple!

You must know that General Lin and the Zhongyong Hou Mansion are not close. He has not stayed at the Zhongyong Hou Mansion for many years, but today he suddenly stayed at the Zhongyong Hou Mansion. This is abnormal in itself!

The imperial palace was the first to receive the decree, announcing that Lin Changqing would enter the palace. Naturally, Lin Changqing entered the palace smelling of alcohol.

Then someone left and came back to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, saying that he accidentally left something behind and came to look for it.

Lin Guangxiao and Chai were still a little confused. Naturally, they asked someone to look for the thing, and then they said somehow that the thing was temporarily kept by Princess Huaishan. If they can't find it now, they just need to ask Princess Huaishan. .

Naturally, Mrs. Chai asked someone to invite Chen Xi in the backyard, leaving the lady to drink tea.

Mrs. Chai's attitude made the lady feel a little more at ease. However, less than a quarter of an hour after she settled down, the little maid came back with a surprised look on her face, saying that the princess was not in the backyard at all.

The lady immediately stood up in shock, startling Mrs. Chai.

"Look elsewhere to see if the princess has taken the young lady to the garden."

Although she said that, Mrs. Chai also guessed that it was impossible, because she knew Chen Xi's disgust for Zhongyong Hou Mansion, so how could she visit the garden of Zhongyong Hou Mansion?

Then of course they sent people to look for him, but after half an hour of searching and almost searching the entire Hou Mansion, Chen Xi could not be found.

And he also brought another news, that is, not only Chen Xi is missing, but also his uncle and aunt are also missing!

Mrs. Chai was shocked: "What's going on? My uncle is not drunk, and my aunt is not taking care of him. What do you mean by missing?"

The little maid cried and said that she literally disappeared. Her uncle and aunt who were resting had left without knowing when, and there was no one in the backyard at all.

Mrs. Chai had a gut feeling that something was wrong, but thinking that her daughter was now married and might not want to stay in the house, she went back to the Shangshu Mansion with her uncle, so she was not too surprised.

On the contrary, Chen Xi disappeared, which surprised Chai.

Because Chen Xi didn't notify her when he left, Mrs. Chai was still quite unhappy.

But seeing the frightened look on the lady's face, Mrs. Chai suddenly realized that something was wrong. She quickly sent someone to call Lin Guangxiao and Lin Changsheng over, and then the Zhongyong Hou Mansion became busy.

Not long after, news came out that Princess Huaishan and her daughter were lost in the Zhongyong Hou Mansion!

Lin Changqing was naturally furious when he heard the news. He sent people to search the whole city to find the person!

Later, there was news that not only Huaishan County Lord was missing, but Tan Yuxuan and Lin Changning were also missing!

At this moment, everyone felt that the disappearance of the person this time may not be just a simple "lost person"!

At this time, everyone saw Lin Changqing sending people to search the whole city, and they couldn't help but wonder if he was pretending.

Although the current situation in Beijing is difficult to understand, everyone can guess the importance of Lin Changqing in it just by guessing.

Reminiscent of the fact that Princess Huaishan and her daughter were recalled to the capital from thousands of miles away from the northwest, just to restrain Lin Changqing. But now that his wife and daughter are missing in the capital, is the restraint on General Lin still effective?

In the palace, the emperor looked at Lin Changqing, who was kneeling on the ground with an indifferent expression, and slammed a cup.

"You really dare!"

Lin Changqing lowered his head and replied firmly: "Your Majesty, I am only loyal to the Emperor! Whatever the Emperor asks me to do, I will do it! But in order to prevent someone from threatening me with my wife and daughter and asking me to betray the Emperor, I can only send him away first." Let’s go, so that I no longer have any worries, I can be loyal to the emperor wholeheartedly, and go through fire and water for the emperor, no matter what!”

Today's emperor could barely even sit up straight. He just dropped a cup and was actually out of breath.

He stared at Lin Changqing with cold eyes, and finally just sighed, "Go down, I know!"

Lin Changqing took a bite respectfully and then withdrew.

"Telford!"

At this time, an old eunuch stepped forward softly and helped the emperor to lean half on the soft pillow.

"Do you believe what he said?"

The old eunuch lowered his eyebrows and sighed: "Your Majesty, Mr. Lin is loyal, but after all he is young and energetic. I am afraid that he has been forced hard by His Highness during this period, and he does not want to betray His Majesty's trust. I came up with this idea."

After hearing what the eunuch said, the emperor smiled coldly: "They are all a bunch of traitors! A bunch of beasts!"

The old eunuch lowered his body now and did not dare to say another word.

After a long while, the emperor spoke again: "Go and send the second prince over."

The old eunuch bowed and then exited the hall.

After giving the instructions, he watched the little eunuch quietly collect the broken pieces of the cup. He looked at the dark corner of the palace, thinking that even if the traitor was a beast, there would be no second choice at this time!
