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

Her guess was correct. At this time, the people from Prince Duan's Mansion had already forced Leng Yiyan and others to the gate.

The leading housekeeper Deng looked at Leng Yiyan with a smug look on his face and snorted with disdain.

"Prince Yan, even if you are going to become the Crown Prince soon, you cannot come to Prince Duan's Mansion and cause trouble at will! I advise you to ask the Emperor for an imperial decree before searching. Otherwise, we will have to take action. If we hurt you, don't blame us for not having eyes."

Leng Yiyan stared at him with dark eyes.

"You are just a small housekeeper, you dare to speak to me like this, you really don't know your own limitations."

After saying that, his brows flashed slightly, and Su Yi rushed forward in one step, and directly kicked Butler Deng with a sweeping kick. Butler Deng fell to his knees without any defense.

This scene frightened the people in Prince Duan's Mansion so much that they took two steps back. Leng Yifei, who had been observing the situation in the main hall, saw this scene, walked out of the main hall quickly, came to Butler Deng, and kicked him to the ground.

"You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. You are so rude when talking to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Aren't you afraid of losing your head?"

Butler Deng lay on the ground feeling aggrieved, and there was murderous intent in his eyes as he looked at Leng Yiyan.

Leng Yifei then clasped his fists towards Leng Yiyan and said:

"Your Highness, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog. You beat someone for no reason at the gate of Prince Duan's mansion. Can I understand that you are deliberately provoking me?"

Looking at Leng Yifei's disgusting face, Leng Yiyan snorted.

"Leng Yifei, be smart and let us in to search. The imperial edict will be here soon."

"Humph, my Prince Duan's Mansion is not a vegetable market. You can't search it whenever you want. Come on, show the guests away and close the door."

After saying this, he turned around with disdain. After receiving his order, the servants of Prince Duan's Mansion slowly stepped forward, pressing forward step by step until Leng Yiyan and others were forced outside the gate, and then they stepped forward to prepare to close the door.

At this moment, Luo Nianxi came on horseback, and before he got close, he shouted,

"The imperial edict has arrived."

Hearing these three words, Leng Yiyan and others couldn't wait to look towards her. Leng Yifei, who was about to enter the house, frowned and stopped.

She quickly arrived at the gate of Prince Duan's mansion, holding high the imperial edict in her hand.

"Prince Yan, please follow my order to search Prince Duan's mansion."

When he saw this imperial edict, Leng Yifei's brows were suddenly filled with gloom.

The emperor was so partial to Leng Yiyan that he even ordered him to search the home of this prince.

However, the other party was holding the imperial edict, so even if he was unwilling, he did not dare to stop it.

He had no choice but to wave his hand and order the servants of Prince Duan's Mansion to make way.

Leng Yiyan led everyone and immediately surrounded Prince Duan's mansion and began a carpet search.

In order to prevent any of these guards from being missed, Luo Nianxi and Leng Yiyan personally participated.

However, they searched the backyard of Prince Duan's mansion and could not find any trace of Jinyu.

When he was about to search Jing'er's room, he was stopped by the maid at the door.

"This is Concubine Jing's room. It's not appropriate for grown men like you to go in."

Hearing this, Luo Nianxi took two steps forward and said coldly:

"In that case, I'll go in and search."

Seeing this, the girl didn't dare to stop him and quickly made way to the door.

When she arrived at the room, she saw Jing'er embroidering. She heard the door open and stood up in surprise.

"you are?"

"I'm Princess Yan, come and search your room."

Jing Er stood up in a panic, then nodded.

"You can search as you like, but don't touch my embroidery. It's my hard work."

Looking at the direction of her finger, there was a small box, and in the box, the finished embroidered products were neatly arranged.

After she nodded, she searched her room one by one, but found nothing suspicious.

Before leaving, she looked at her,

"Your name is Jing'er?"

Jing'er nodded, "Yeah."

"Leng Yifei is unreliable, you'd better take care of yourself!"

Leaving this sentence, she pushed the door open and walked out.

Jing'er stood there in a daze.

Leng Yifei is unreliable?

But he was very good to her. He came to her room every night and stayed overnight. The food, clothes and things she used were the best in the mansion.

How could he not rely on it?

She laughed at herself, perhaps others were jealous of her!

The people from Prince Yan's Mansion searched Prince Duan's Mansion inside and out, but could not find anything suspicious.

They could only return home in disappointment.

Before leaving, Leng Yiyan called out behind them,

"A little girl alone outside, there are all kinds of possibilities. You have to be prepared. If not, I will send the men in the mansion to help you look for her tomorrow. Make sure nothing happens!"

His words seemed like a reminder, but in fact they were full of sarcasm.

Leng Yiyan turned around and looked at him with gloomy eyes, which scared him so much that he quickly raised his hand to scratch his eyes to hide his inner panic.

After watching Leng Yiyan and others leave, he ordered people to close the door, then walked towards the study room impatiently, closed the door and bolted it.

He took a black gauze mask from a drawer and put it on, then picked up a dagger and put it into his sleeve.

Then he came to the wall and stomped his feet three times. Seeing a crack appear in the wall, he quickly walked in and the wall instantly returned to calm.

At this time, Jinyu had just finished eating and was walking back and forth in the room, trying to find an exit.

When she heard a sound at the door, she hurried back to the bed and lay down, giving the illusion that she was asleep.

Leng Yifei passed through a door and came to her side. Seeing that she was sleeping, he called out softly,

"Little girl..."

Jinyu slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Leng Yifei, she grinned and smiled at him.

"Uncle, are you back?"

This was the solution she came up with after thinking about it for a whole day.

Since this bad guy locked her up here, he must want to harm her.

Then she would have to please the bad guy first so that he wouldn't want to attack her, and then she would find a chance to escape.

Her sudden show of goodwill surprised Leng Yifei.

He frowned and looked at her.

"Little girl, aren't you afraid?"

Jinyu nodded with her eyes wide open.

"I'm scared, but I know you're a good person, uncle, and you won't hurt me."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you have beautiful eyes and you don't look like a bad person. You were forced by others to bring me here, right?"

Jinyu's words made Leng Yifei a little at a loss.

Originally, he planned to get rid of this little girl today, and then throw her body out of the city at night. Tomorrow, Leng Yiyan and Luo Nianxi would go crazy when they found their daughter's body. He would then take advantage of the chaos in Prince Yan's Mansion to get rid of his other two children one by one.

By then, even if he became the crown prince, what would that matter? He would just be a failed crown prince.

But when the little girl said that he was a good man and that he had beautiful eyes, his heart suddenly softened.

But he still made up his mind, gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"Yes, I was forced, but I must kill you today."
