Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince
Chapter 158 One step too late
Jingyou jumped off the carriage and asked the guards to untie a horse that was pulling the carriage. Regardless of whether there was a saddle or not, he immediately jumped on the horse and galloped away.
The guards looked at him in astonishment as he disappeared in front of them like an arrow shot from a bow, and could not help but look at each other in bewilderment.
"Fools, hurry up and catch up!" Fu Qing shouted angrily, "If anything happens to the prince, you will all die!"
The guard quickly jumped on another horse and took Fuqing with him, chasing after him.
Fuqing was not in a hurry. Doctor Wu was in the courtyard. He would definitely inform them if there was any news. Why was the prince so anxious?
But he didn't know that after Doctor Wu learned that Chan Yi was taken away by Manager Qian, he quickly packed his luggage, said goodbye and left.
He finally realized that this was a fight between the emperor, dukes, generals and ministers for a woman, and he didn't want to get involved in it. The best option was to run away quickly.
In the small courtyard, although Pei Jin was weak all over, he stood steadily. Xuan Bai wanted to help him, but he raised his hand to stop him.
"Madam, is Madam Li here?" He glanced at Madam Wang and his eyes moved around the room. He came so early today, but the room was very quiet. Perhaps Chan Yi and her son had not gotten up yet.
"This..." When Nanny Wang saw this young man who looked sick but still handsome, she wondered who he was and what was going on today. Why were the young men who came to see Madam Li so handsome?
"Excuse me, sir, who are you?" Nanny Wang asked cautiously. She really couldn't guess why this person came.
"My young master is an old acquaintance of Madam Li. Please ask Madam Li to come out and meet him." Xuan Bai said with a bow.
"Old acquaintance?" Nanny Wang was startled and stared at the young man. He was dressed in a dark robe, standing upright, with a pair of deep eyes on his thin face.
"Could it be you?" Nanny Wang exclaimed in surprise, but suddenly covered her mouth. Oh my God, could it be that my wife is... Oh, this gentleman's eyes are exactly the same as the young lady's!
"What is it?" Pei Jin smiled faintly.
My god, when she smiled, there was a faint dimple on her left cheek, instantly sweeping away her cold look. She looked exactly like the young lady.
"No... no no..." Nanny Wang stammered, unable to speak. She pointed outside and said incoherently, "My wife is out. The customer in the shop just asked her to leave."
"What? She went out. Which shop? Who took her away?" Pei Jin's face immediately darkened and he looked at Xuan Bai.
"Well, please wait a moment, sir. She should be back soon." Nanny Wang said quickly, "Why don't you sit in the yard for a while?"
"Where did she go?" Pei Jin asked relentlessly.
"He should have gone to the carriage at the entrance of the alley." Nanny Wang muttered softly, guessing in her heart that this young man must also be noble and extraordinary.
She didn't know what had happened. She vaguely felt that Madam Li had a quarrel with her husband, so she ran away with the child and said that her husband was dead. This, this, this, is really embarrassing!
"What carriage?" Xuan Bai asked with a frown.
"It's right at the entrance of the alley. Didn't you see it when you came over? My lady has been out for about a quarter of an hour. She should be back soon." Nanny Wang asked in surprise. Could it be that they didn't come in from the entrance of the alley?
Before Nanny Wang finished her words, Pei Jin's heart skipped a beat. He immediately turned around, walked out of the courtyard, and ran towards the alley entrance.
"Master." Xuan Bai disappeared into the yard like an arrow shot from a bow, leaving only Nanny Wang at a loss.
"Oh no, maybe Chan Yi was kidnapped! I looked carefully just now, and there should be no one else in the room, even Mother Zhou is gone. They must have come prepared." Pei Jin was dragged by Xuan Bai to the entrance of the alley.
"Who could that be? Could it be Prince Shun?" Xuan Bai said in a low voice.
"No, the Fourth Prince definitely doesn't act like that. He could have just taken Chan Yi and the others away directly. How could he do it so secretly?" Pei Jin shook his head and said.
There were no carriages at the entrance of the alley, and even on the streets far away, there were no carriages passing by.
"What should we do then, Young Master?" Xuan Bai asked anxiously.
Pei Jin's face had already turned pale, and he was sure that someone had gotten there first.
"Chase! I'll go east and you go west. Since the nanny said they've only been gone for a quarter of an hour, maybe we can still catch up with them." Pei Jin whispered, "The rest of you stay here, maybe Chan Yi will come back."
"My Lord, please be patient and let the others chase her first. We should stay here. I think maybe the young lady really just went to the store, and we missed her if we chased her like this." Xuan Bai said in a deep voice, "How about I go and ask that maid what kind of person tricked the young lady out?"
Pei Jin nodded. He was indeed a little confused because of his concern. Xuan Bai was right. He first needed to find out who took Chan Yi and her son away.
Xuan Bai immediately arranged for people to investigate everywhere, and then he and Pei Jin prepared to return to the courtyard. As soon as they reached the gate of the courtyard, they saw a little girl with a middle-aged man, who was talking with a sad face and aggrieved, with tears all over his face.
"It was the people brought by Manager Qian. Nanny Wang saw it clearly." The little girl said with sobs.
"Did Manager Qian come in person?" Manager Zhang asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it is said..." Nanny Wang interrupted and told Manager Zhang in detail what had just happened.
"What happened?" She looked up and saw Pei Jin and the others following in, and immediately asked, "Master, have you seen the carriage at the entrance of the alley?"
Pei Jin shook his head.
"Madam Wang, my wife and the others were taken away by a carriage. They wouldn't let me get on. I was afraid for my wife and the others..." Chunyue said crying.
"Don't cry, since Shopkeeper Qian came with you, don't be afraid. He is the shopkeeper of Tongxi Silk Shop, what can he do to Madam Li?" Shopkeeper Zhang smiled and comforted Chunyue, "They may have taken Madam Li and the others to Jiangyin. Didn't you say that the two gentlemen wanted to customize wedding clothes for my sister?"
"But, but...how could this be possible? You just take people away without saying anything?" Chunyue said, wiping her face.
"Did you see clearly where they went?" Pei Jin asked with a clenched fist.
"No, who are you, sir?" Chunyue raised her tearful eyes and asked puzzledly.
"This young man is an old acquaintance of Madam Li, and he has come specially to visit her." Nanny Wang was afraid that the little girl Chunyue would speak carelessly and offend others, so she quickly took over the conversation.
"Today is really strange. Why do so many people come to see my wife so early in the morning?" Chunyue muttered, and then said to Shopkeeper Zhang, "Shopkeeper Zhang, what do you say we should do?"
"No rush, I'll go to Tongxi Silk Shop right away to find Manager Qian." Manager Zhang nodded.
"Tongxi Silk Shop, who owns this shop? Why does it sound familiar?" Pei Jin asked in a low voice.
"This... is the property of the Jiangyin Lin family." Shopkeeper Zhang bowed to the noble young man and said, but when he saw his appearance clearly, his expression suddenly froze.
"Sir, where are you from?" he asked cautiously.
