Chapter 310: Missing
The Meng family’s grandchildren were annoyed with King Wen, but they couldn’t say much even though he had followed them to the inner courtyard to watch the “Catch the Week”.
Jiang Yishi glanced at King Wen, his eyelids were drooping and his back was not straight, he did not have the demeanor of a prince.
The more he pretends, the more problematic it is.
There was a table of things on the big square table, Xiao Cun Cun’s two little short arms scratched and pulled, and most of the table was pocketed by him, including the seal, paper and pen, abacus, rouge, snacks and other things.
The crowd was very happy.
King Ping laughed and said, “Not bad, the world’s joy, what should be asked for.”
The meal was followed by the theater. At the beginning of the Shen hour, the guests went home one after another.
Jiang Yixi was extremely tired and went straight back to the Floating Life Residence to lie down in bed and rest, while everyone else went to Fu An Hall.
When no one was in the house, Hua Hua burrowed into the Luo tent, stood on the footrest and meowed, “Mother, I can also see that King Wen is not right.”
Jiang Yishi had temporarily arranged an important task for Hua Hua today, which was to stand in the corner and spy on King Wen.
Jiang Yishi turned her head sideways, “Oh, what’s wrong?”
Hua Hua straightened up, both front paws resting on the edge of the bed, and meowed, “He’s all hitchhiking eyelids to look at people, sneaky, unlike others who look squarely at them. Other people can’t find out who he’s looking at, but I can. Hey, there are advantages to being short ……
“In the front yard, King Wen looks at Boss Meng the most. Even when he was far away, he was always looking for Boss Meng. When he was in the inner courtyard, he hitchhiked his eyelids around to look at women and looked at Aunt Moon the most.”
This information from Hua Hua didn’t have much value.
They had always known that King Wen paid special attention to Meng Zhimo and Jiang Yixi. They also knew that King Wen had thoughts about Meng Yue, they just didn’t know what he was trying to do.
Jiang Yishi coped, “Oh, Hua Hua is capable, got it.”
The next moment, she sank into sleep.
Not seeing her mother’s surprised expression or receiving praise, Hua Hua was frustrated and ran off in a huff to Fu An Ming to find comfort.
In Fu An Ming Hall, the old Duke of State and the old lady were both sullen, with no trace of the joy they had just seen.
The children and grandchildren sat in a formal manner, not knowing what had happened at home.
The old master glanced at his children and grandchildren, and said with a long sigh, “I don’t expect the people in this family to be completely united, it’s inevitable that they will have their own little thoughts and conflicts. But when it’s time to unite as one, absolutely do not allow anyone to tear down their own family.”
His eyes swept to the women’s side, and the second madam raised her head sheepishly.
The old master added, “To lose peace in front of outsiders, to have outsiders help make this banquet decent, this is no longer a small mindedness or a small conflict. This is pulling the rug out from underneath, helping the enemy to strike at their own people. I’ve always emphasized that only when everyone works together to run the entire State Duke’s Mansion well will everyone’s days be better.
“But there are just people who want to tear down …… Fu s life only last year when she hung herself, and her pair of children left the capital only two months ago, so this lesson is forgotten? Second daughter-in-law, you go back, grounded for a month, think about what you did.”
The old master was not polite, and sent the second madam off in public.
The second wife’s face turned red, kneeling on the ground at once, crying, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law is wrong, never dare again ……”
Several people in the second house knelt down.
The second master was ashamed to say, “The son is not good, did not teach the woman well, let father and mother angry.”
The old master said, “You guys get up. Resignation Yan, help your mother back.”
Over the past two years, he was very satisfied with his second son and several grandchildren. It was because of this satisfaction that he left his second daughter-in-law’s men behind. This family, could not withstand any more tossing and turning.
The second old master gave Meng Xuyan a wink, and Meng Xuyan helped the weeping second wife to leave.
The old lady also turned red, the family was all about the inner house and the daughter-in-law’s accidents, it was her as a mother-in-law who hadn’t done a good job. She sighed, “It’s also my fault, my body is not good, and I was negligent in teaching my juniors ……”
After the old master gave a long lecture, the people ate dinner hastily and went back to their respective houses.
The old couple first rewarded a few things to Floating Life Residence, and the second master had someone send half a catty of Official Bird’s Nest a ginseng.
Meng Zhimo saw that Jiang Yishi was just tired and her body was fine, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
At the end of April, an explosive news spread in the capital, Zhennanbo Zhao hu’s second daughter-in-law, that is, Zhao Yuancheng’s daughter-in-law Zhao second grandmother disappeared. The Zhennanbo residence quietly searched for five days and still could not find her, so they had no choice but to report it to the officials.
Second Grandma Zhao disappeared when she went to an embroidery shop to buy something and went to the clean room.
Once this incident was publicized, the missing persons cases that were not taken seriously before were also taken seriously again.
In the past two years, there have been eight cases of missing young women in the capital, and all of them are young women between the ages of twenty and twenty-eight years old, and all of them have good family backgrounds and are good-looking in person.
Zhao Er Granny was the highest born, her mother-in-law’s family was the Bofu, her own father was a third-ranking officer, and she was Zhao Shufei’s maiden nephew-in-law.
They do not see people alive or dead, as if the earth evaporated.
Immediately in the capital, people are on edge, and the youngest daughter-in-law is in danger.
While the capital government stepped up its efforts to solve the case, it also strengthened the security of the capital together with the five cities’ military and horse divisions.
After hearing the news, Jiang Yishi’s first thought was the Crown Prince, and then rejected it. The Crown Prince only likes old women, and wouldn’t be interested in a twenty year old daughter-in-law. Moreover, he was in the Eastern Palace, it wasn’t easy for him to leave the palace in person, and it was even more difficult to get women from the folk to enter the palace and dispose of the corpses.
Old Mrs. Meng also made a request to her own granddaughter-in-law that she was not allowed to go out on the streets or strings without anything. Even if she went out of the palace, she had to bring extra guards and grannies with her, and she could not act alone at any time, including going up to the purification room.
Li Zhenbao entered the capital hearing this rumor.
She lifted the curtain and said to Zheng Yu on the side of the carriage, “It must be the work of a perverted sex fiend, getting a handsome-looking constable to run around at night pretending to be a young woman to seduce him.”
Zheng Yu drooped his eyelids and looked at the little head sticking out of the carriage window, this little head did not know what was in it, what he thought was always different, and he also dared to say anything.
He coped, “That’s a good idea, I’ll tell him when I see the capital governor.” Seeing Li Zhenbao still smiling at him with his head tilted, he touched his face and asked, “Is my face flowery?”
Li Zhenbao pointed to the left side of his face and laughed, “Well, there’s a bit of black ash here.”
Zheng Yu wiped his clean face, his gaze inquiring, clean?
Having molested the ancient man, Li Zhenbao’s smile deepened, “Clean.”
The small head shrinks into the small window.
A short while later, the small window out of a hand, in the heart of the hand there is a piece of red and trembling crystal clear peach root powder jelly, the imperial kitchen production.
It was close to noon, breakfast and eaten early, Zheng Yu stomach timely called twice.
Zheng Yu reached out and took it, then quickly stuffed it into her mouth.
A little later, a small hand with a plum-shaped mung bean cake stretched out, Zheng Yu took it and ate it.
Then, a white glutinous rice coconut cake was placed in the small hand.
