I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

The one lying on the ground was Princess Heshuo.

Cui Shuyan hurried over to help her up, pressed her philtrum, and called out, "Sister-in-law, I'm Shuyan."

When Princess Heshuo saw Cui Shuyan, she burst into tears.

She suddenly hugged Cui Shuyan very tightly.

When she finally calmed down, Princess Heshuo's eyes were still red: "Lan Xin was gone to protect me. Three swords stabbed into her stomach at the same time..."

Lan Xin has been with Princess Heshuo for many years. Although they are master and servant, they are no different from real sisters.

But this time, they were separated forever.

"Sister-in-law, please accept my condolences and take care of yourself." Cui Shuyan said as she checked the pulse of Princess Heshuo. At first, her expression was very calm, but after a moment, her eyes widened, "Sister-in-law, you..."

"What's wrong?" Princess Heshuo looked confused.

Cui Shuyan didn't say anything. She pressed her pulse-checking hand down again and confirmed, "Sister-in-law, you are pregnant, probably about two months."

For a moment, Princess Heshuo was somewhat dazed. She placed her hand on her belly and was absent-minded for a moment: "I am pregnant?"

"Yes." Cui Shuyan affirmed.

She knew that Princess Heshuo had always hoped to have a child.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the child came.

It's just that so much has happened recently that she has ignored it.

Cui Shuyan held her hands tightly and said in a strong voice: "Sister-in-law, His Majesty has regained consciousness and the situation will gradually stabilize. Don't be too sad."

"Yes!" Princess Heshuo nodded heavily and said nothing else.

At this time, the palace was still in chaos, and Xie Xingyuan was leading people to search everywhere.

It was not until dusk that the palace finally calmed down.

Taking advantage of this time, Cui Shuyan and Princess Heshuo worked together to refine some pills to prevent Emperor Zhaowu from losing consciousness again.

When she finished all this, Xie Xingyuan came over and said that he had half an hour free and wanted to take her back home.

It was not until she returned home, holding Ze'er and Xi'er in her arms, that Cui Shuyan felt relieved.

It’s great that their family is still together.

Cui Shuyan became free, but Xie Xingyuan was still busy.

Two days passed, and even though a large number of people were sent out, the queen was still not found.

At the same time, Concubine Xian and the Sixth Prince seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and no trace of them could be found.

After searching the Duke Dingguo's mansion, they only found a few illegitimate sons and daughters and concubines from the side branches, and the rest of the direct lineage was nowhere to be found.

Logically speaking, it should be easy to find so many people missing at the same time.

But what is strange is that in the past two days, Xie Xingyuan and his men have searched almost every corner of the capital, but still have not found any clues.

Feeling that the matter was unusual, Cui Shuyan sent all her men out, hoping to find some clues and locate Concubine Xian's whereabouts as soon as possible.

No matter what, as long as Concubine Xian is not captured, there will be a risk.

No one knows what she can do now.

Just after giving the order, Mr. Wen came: "Princess, the Fifth Prince is here and wants to see you."

"Please ask him to go to the main hall. I will be there soon."

After they met, Gao Mingche didn't even have time to sit down. He walked over and asked, "Princess, you are always smart. I want to ask you, where do you think the queen is now? I am a little worried about her."

"Thank you, Fifth Prince, for trusting me. I don't know where the Queen is now. I just think that since we haven't found her after two days of searching, it means that the Queen is now in some place we can't think of for the time being. Can we apply to His Majesty to search the residences of important officials next?"

Normally, the residence of an important official cannot be searched unless he has committed a serious crime.

After all, important officials have the dignity of being important officials. If they lead troops to barge in, it would seem too abrupt.

Next, it depends on whether Emperor Zhaowu has the determination.

Probably, there will be some obstacles.

Gao Mingche looked bitter: "I once mentioned this to my father, but he had his own concerns and did not agree. In fact, I can understand my father. Such a big thing just happened. He hopes that the situation can return to calm as soon as possible and does not want any more waves."

"To a certain extent, your majesty's considerations are not wrong. He is the emperor, and he will consider the issue from a more comprehensive perspective."

"I know. But I can't just ignore the Queen."

This surprised Cui Shuyan.

Could it be that during these few months of getting along, they developed a relationship between mother and son?

"I originally thought that I didn't care whether she lived or died. But for some reason, when she disappeared, I felt extremely panicked, as if... as if I was about to lose something extremely important..."

Cui Shuyan could understand this feeling.

Perhaps, this is the connection between close relatives.

It’s hard to explain, but it really exists.

Cui Shuyan said truthfully: "The Queen has not been found yet, and I am also very worried. I have some people under my command, all of whom are relatively low-level people. I have already ordered them to pay attention to whether the various mansions have increased their purchases recently. If a particular mansion has increased its purchases, we can follow this clue to investigate. However, this will take some time."

After listening to Cui Shuyan, Gao Mingche suddenly realized: "Yes! We have been tracking for so long, and we have searched almost every place in the capital, but we still can't find the whereabouts of Consort Xian. From this, it seems that she may be hiding in the mansion of an important official. There are so many more people in the mansion, and the food and drink are not a small amount, so we must increase the purchases."

"At the same time, we must also keep an eye on the families who have farms in the mansion. They eat the food produced on their own farms and do not need to buy anything."

"That's the truth." Gao Mingche agreed.

At this time, Cui Shuyan took out a page of paper and showed it to Gao Mingche: "This is the list of important officials that I compiled in the past two days based on Mr. Wen's suggestions. Take a look at the list to see if there are any missing ones or those that have already been searched?"

Gao Mingche has been leading a team to search for the whereabouts of the queen these days and is very familiar with these things.

He read it carefully, and then looked at Cui Shuyan with admiration: "Nothing is missing. Thank you, Princess. If you were a man, you would definitely be a prime minister."

"Your Highness, you are too kind. I am also worried about the safety of the Empress, and I cannot do nothing. Moreover, over the years, Concubine Xian has bribed countless people to use her. Now the Empress is of no use to her, and the longer she stays with her, the more danger she will face. I do have a plan to lure Concubine Xian into action. I wonder if Your Highness is willing to give it a try?"

"I do." Gao Mingche gave the answer without any hesitation.

At this time, Cui Shuyan added: "What if this plan is not carried out with care, and it endangers your life?"
