The foolish girl returns, and the regent becomes a wife-loving madman

Early the next morning, Xie Zihan arrived outside Shen Jingxuan's door as early as he had done the day before, waiting to have breakfast with her.

What surprised him was that today was different from yesterday. There was no trace of the maid and Shen Xinglin in the yard.

Although Xie Zihan looked puzzled, he still went forward and knocked on the door.

He didn't know how many times he came yesterday, but except for meeting Shen Jingxuan early in the morning, he never saw her again.

And every time he came, the maid said that Shen Jingxuan was resting, and she had countless reasons to believe it.

Today he must stay with Shen Jingxuan all day.

Xie Zihan knocked on the door for a long time, but when he heard no sound from inside the room, he looked displeased.

He suppressed his impatience and continued knocking on the door, but still no one answered.

When he finally couldn't bear it anymore, he pushed the door open.

Looking at the empty room, Xie Zihan's expression instantly turned gloomy.

At the same time, the capital city was in an uproar because of an incident.

In teahouses, taverns, streets and alleys, everyone knew that the Regent Princess was missing, and the person who kidnapped her was the crown prince.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince surrounded the Regent's Palace last time, why did you capture the Regent's Consort this time?"

"Yes, the Regent is at the border to defend against the enemy. What does His Royal Highness want to do?"

"Who knows? How can ordinary people like us guess what the big shots are thinking?"

Several people were talking about Xie Zi Han and the Regent's Palace, but the person who had participated in beating Xie Zi Han was unhappy.

"What could he want to do? He just doesn't want the Regent to be at ease defending against the enemy."

"That's right. He has such evil intentions. If the Regent hadn't come to defend against the enemy, we would have had a hard time if Xiling Country attacked us."

"He doesn't care about the lives of the people, so he is not worthy of being the crown prince of Beiling Kingdom."

"..."

The discussions in the teahouse were getting louder and louder. Some people were angry about Xie Zihan's behavior, while others were indignant about the Regent's Palace.

In a short time, the news that Xie Zihan had captured Shen Jingxuan spread throughout Shangjing City.

For a whole day, discussions in the capital city continued one after another and could not be suppressed.

Lu Zhong and the Queen sat opposite each other, each looking uglier than the other.

"Now that Han'er has done something like this, everyone in Shangjing City, from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, knows about it. We must help him clean up the mess."

"How to deal with the aftermath? The people sent to the streets to investigate the news could not find out where the news came from all day. The people sent to stop them from discussing it came in waves. Not only did they fail to suppress the matter, but they also made the people talk about it even more. How do you say we should deal with the aftermath?"

Lu Zhong looked at the queen with a gloomy expression, showing all his dissatisfaction on his face.

The Queen was displeased and said, "We have to find a way. We can't let Han'er make the people in the city even more dissatisfied because of this. He is the crown prince. With such a stain, how can he inherit the throne in the future?"

Lu Zhong was so angry that he laughed: "The throne? Has he ever cared about it? You and I have carefully trained him for many years, and look at what he is like now?"

"As a crown prince, not only did he do nothing, he also ignored Beiling Country and was despised by the people. Have you ever seen an emperor of any country succeeded by such a crown prince?"

A prince who is hated by the people, Xie Zihan has no hope of keeping his position as prince, let alone inheriting the throne.

Seeing that Lu Zhong was furious, the queen did not dare to plead for Xie Zihan, but had to persuade him to find a way for Xie Zihan.

The queen softened her tone and said, "Brother, don't be angry. Now that we can't find Han'er, let's help him solve the problem first, and then we can discuss everything after we find him. How about that?"

Although Lu Zhong was angry, he could do nothing about the queen who softened her tone.

He sighed and said, "We are still just ordinary people in the city now. I am afraid it will be difficult to solve this matter for Han'er."

Xie Zihan is the crown prince, but he has aroused public anger. I wonder how he will make suggestions at the morning court tomorrow.

Lu Zhong couldn't think of a solution for a moment and became more and more annoyed.

He didn't know why Xie Zi Han had become what he was now, nor did he know if he had ever thought about the consequences of doing so.

From childhood to adulthood, he has done countless things for Xie Zihan, but what is the result?

But he doesn't recognize himself as his father.

Lu Zhong's discussions with the Queen were fruitless, so he had to leave the palace early and continue searching for Xie Zihan's whereabouts.

The moment the palace gate closed, Zhao Yiliang returned to the vicinity of the queen's bedroom.

In the corner, he looked at the person in front of him with a slight curl of his lips: "Did you bring the person?"

The secret sentry of Luofeng Temple wiped his hands with a handkerchief in disgust: "It's there. Can you catch them yourself next time?"

"We are all family members. It doesn't matter who we arrest. Why do you have to worry about these things?"

After he finished speaking, Zhao Yiliang followed his gaze and saw a man lying on the ground unconscious.

"Are you sure it was the princess's order?"

"If she hadn't told me to, would I have dared to do this?"

"Then hurry up so as not to be discovered."

Zhao Yiliang did not delay any longer. The two of them picked up the person on the ground and disappeared into the night together.

They had just left the queen's bedroom when Lu Zhong came back.

Zhao Yiliang looked at Lu Zhong who suddenly appeared and hit the wall beside him.

The two thought that Lu Zhong had left and would never come back.

But they didn't expect that he not only came back, but also ruined their plans.

"What to do now?"

Zhao Yiliang was annoyed: "What else can I do? It's all in vain."

After saying that, he flipped over to the top of the bedroom, lifted the tiles and stared at everything inside.

Lu Zhong came to the outer room of the bedroom, but did not see the queen, so he walked towards the inner room with familiarity.

The moment the door opened, the queen was seen hugging a man tightly.

His eyes were red, and he quickly stepped forward and kicked the man.

"Ah..." The man cried out in pain and looked at Lu Zhong in horror.

The two men looked at each other, and Lu Zhong raised his hand and hit him hard.

"Wang Chao, are you so bold? How dare you touch the queen?"

Wang Chao kept dodging Lu Zhong's fists: "Prime Minister Lu, please listen to my explanation."

Lu Zhong was very angry, so how could he listen? He just wanted to teach Wang Chao a lesson.

Fortunately, he remembered that there was something he forgot to tell the queen, so he went back.

If it weren't for this...

Lu Zhong couldn't imagine whether Wang Chao would kill the two men on the spot if he succeeded.

How could he accept that his beloved sister was possessed by someone else?

"Brother, please stop now."

Lu Zhong suddenly stopped and glared at the queen: "Do you want to speak for him?"

"How long have you been together? How many times has this happened?"

The Queen and Wang Chao looked at Lu Zhong in shock.

"Prime Minister Lu, I was knocked unconscious. I don't know why I am here. You have to believe me."

The queen stepped forward and took Lu Zhong's hand: "Brother, what he said is true. I have never met him privately."

One said he was knocked unconscious by himself, and the other said they did not meet in private.

Do you think he is stupid?

Lu Zhong glared at Wang Chao: "If you were knocked unconscious, why are you awake now?"

"Why are you hugging each other so tightly since you haven't met in private?"
