I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

Chuntao yelled at her angrily:

"What's the point of blaming yourself now? I'll go back and inform the princess. Hong Yan, you go to the government office and tell the government to help find him. Bai Lan, you look around here again. Maybe Si Jin will be back soon."

Chun Tao was still calm at this time. After Hong Yan handed Jin Jie to her, he quickly ran to the government office. She held a child in one hand and instructed Bai Lan:

'Just look for it nearby, don't go too far, we'll be there soon.'

Leaving these words behind, she took her two children and walked impatiently towards Prince Yan's Mansion.

At this time, Luo Nianxi was still sitting on the bed, her face as pale as paper, completely bloodless.

"Princess...something happened."

Chuntao's voice came, and her expression became tense again.

They took the children to the Lantern Festival. Could something have happened to the children?

She hurried to the door, and at the same time, Chuntao pushed the door open and walked in.

When she saw Chuntao, whose eyes were red from crying, and the two children in her arms, she seemed to understand something. She walked up to her, pressed her shoulders, and asked impatiently,

"Where's Si Jin? Where's Si Jin?"

Chuntao cried and shook her head.

"Princess, four pounds are lost..."

When she heard the word "lost" again, Luo Nianxi felt like her world had fallen.

Within a day, her husband and son were lost.

What happened to her? What did she do wrong in her previous life that God wanted to punish her like this?

She shook Chuntao's shoulders like crazy and kept asking,

"How did he lose it? How did he lose it? Where did he lose it?"

"Bai Lan took him with her at the time. She said there was a group of people practicing juggling and they went to watch the fun, and then...then they were separated by the crowd. Bai Lan looked everywhere for Si Jin but couldn't find him."

God!

Luo Nianxi only felt her body go limp and she almost fell to the ground.

Jinyu and Jinjie went forward together, holding her hands and comforting her.

"Mom, my brother won't get lost. He must have gone out to play and will be back soon."

"Yes, let's go find Big Brother together, don't worry."

Luo Nianxi raised her hand, gently stroked the two children's faces, and said to them:

"My eldest brother is already lost, you can't let anything happen to you. Go back to your room now and don't come out. Mother will go find Si Jin."

"Mom, we have to go find big brother too."

"Jie'er and Yu'er, be good and go back to your room."

Seeing that their mother was a little angry, the two children pursed their lips, turned around and walked towards the backyard together.

She regained her sanity at this moment, she looked up and called out,

"Shunzi."

Shunzi trotted over to her.

"princess."

"Gather everyone in the front yard. I have instructions. Send someone to inform the Eighth Prince and the palace that the eldest son Leng Jinyan is missing. Ask them to send someone to look for him."

"Yes."

As soon as Shunzi left, she looked at Chuntao again.

"Go and inform the government office to close the four city gates immediately."

Chuntao was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yes, slave, go right away."

She then turned around, pulled a cloak around her body, strode solemnly to the front yard, and instructed all the servants in the mansion:

"The eldest young master is missing. Whether it was an accident or someone did it on purpose, it is hard to determine now. Now, all the maids stay in the mansion to take good care of the second young lady and the young master. The rest of you, follow me to the street to look for him."

Everyone nodded when they heard this.

"Yes."

Luo Nianxi turned to look at Chuntao again.

"You stay in the mansion. Once Si Jin comes back, send someone to notify me."

Chuntao nodded hurriedly.

"Yes."

After explaining all this, she led the men from Prince Yan's mansion out.

At the same time, the emperor, upon learning the news, also sent the palace guards to the streets to search for people.

There were also Shuntian Prefecture Governor Xu Mingjun and the Eighth Prince, who brought people to the place where Sijin had just been lost and began to search for him.

Although it was already midnight, because tonight was the Lantern Festival, the moon in the sky illuminated the entire Chang'an city as bright as day.

Luo Nianxi stood on the street, shouting helplessly,

"Si Jin, where are you? Don't scare me, come out quickly."

But the only response she got was the sound of the wind.

The Eighth Uncle came to her side and comforted her softly:

"Otherwise, you can go back to the mansion and wait for news. I'll keep an eye on it here and send someone to tell you as soon as there is news."

She just shook her head and refused.

"No, I want to wait for Si Jin here. It's so late, what if something happens to him? I want to wait for him to come back."

"Si Jin will be fine. You should take care of yourself too. Yan Er's matter has not yet come to a conclusion, and Si Jin has had another accident. You can't let anything happen to you again."

"Nothing will happen to me. I will wait for them to come back. I will wait for them at home."

At this point, her tears began to fall down her cheeks again like beads that had broken off the string.

At this time, Xu Mingjun came over with a serious look on his face. Seeing this, the Eighth Prince hurried forward to ask,

"How about it?"

Xu Mingjun shook his head directly.

"I've looked everywhere, but no one has ever seen Si Jin."

"How is that possible? How could a child that big just disappear? Keep looking."

"Well, I ordered people to close the city gates, but it was too late. I guess if someone did it on purpose, there is little hope for the child to be in the city..."

"What did you say?"

Luo Nianxi looked back at her with horror in her eyes, "Why do you say that? What did you find out?"

Seeing her anxious look, Xu Mingjun sighed.

"I just found out through some investigation that some strangers came to the capital tonight to watch the Lantern Festival. They all wore masks, and... they left the city before the Lantern Festival was over."

"what?"

Xu Mingjun's words made Luo Nianxi's heart rise to her throat, and her whole body began to tremble.

She already had a very bad premonition in her heart.

That night, the palace guards, the officials from Shuntian Prefecture, the people from the Eighth Prince's Palace, and the people from Prince Yan's Palace turned the entire capital upside down, but they were unable to find Si Jin.

Like Leng Yiyan, Si Jin seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth. There was no news of them and they could not be found anywhere.

After a sleepless night, Luo Nianxi sat blankly in the main hall of Prince Yan's Mansion, looking towards the door with lifeless eyes.

People came in one after another to report the news, but none of them made her happy.

Bai Lan walked in from outside in a daze and knelt down in front of her.

"Princess, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Si Jin. You can either hit me or kill me!"

Luo Nianxi looked down at Bai Lan. Although she was angry, what was the point of being angry now that things had come to this?

"It's not your fault, get up!"

"Princess, it's my fault. If I had held Si Jin in my arms at that time, or, or we hadn't gone to a crowded place to join in the fun, or..."

"Stop talking."

She was powerless to interrupt her.

"Is it still useful to say all this? Besides, if someone did it on purpose, he would still fall even if you held him in your arms."

"Princess, it's my fault that I lost the four pounds."
