It’s hard to tell whether they are stupid or dumb. Such a simple question has caused so much trouble for the entire Ubuntu.

At this time, in addition to Alianmi, there was another person who suddenly lived in rage.

When A Lianmi's subordinates were making a big fuss, the proprietress of the Ceci Courtyard interrogated the young ladies who had just returned from the performance.

Many of those young ladies came from other places, and they could not bear such hardship. As soon as the proprietress opened her mouth, they started crying non-stop.

The lady boss was furious. "I didn't hit you or scold you. I just made a loud noise and you are crying here. It seems that I am too nice to you. Otherwise, how dare you make such a fuss?"

The young ladies lowered their heads and dared not speak, looking extremely aggrieved.

Although she didn't say anything, the faint sound of crying still echoed throughout the restaurant.

Some people couldn't hold back their tears anymore and took a deep breath, while others even coughed while crying.

She really has the demeanor of a weak willow swaying in the wind, which makes the proprietress very angry.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the noise gradually died down.

"Have you cried enough? Have you said it now? What are you crying about?!"

One of the young ladies was timid and answered in a very small voice, "I...I...I don't know what's going on. The shopkeeper asked me, but I can't explain it clearly."

The young ladies who spoke at this time were the bravest ones, while the rest didn't even dare to open their mouths.

"Shopkeeper... cough cough cough... I really don't know... I... I... I am a nobody, and I haven't seen Princess Ceci for a long, long time, let alone talked to her."

The young lady was crying so hard that she was out of breath and coughing at the same time. It took a lot of effort to understand what she was saying.

The shopkeeper was almost rolling her eyes. These girls were bought by her from Dayan Dynasty and Li Kingdom. Although they were not very noble, they were not cheap either. It was not worth punishing them just for the whereabouts of a Princess Sissi.

After all, Princess Sissi was a title she gave herself. Even if a few more young ladies came, as long as she taught them some talents, it would only be a matter of time before they were given the title of Princess Sissi.

What she cares about most now is whether Princess Sissi has any relationship with Madam Rong in the Alianmi camp.

At that time, when Lady Rong entered Wubang, it was she who paved the way. Without her, it would not have been so easy.

But it was because of Madam Rong that she and A Lianmi became grasshoppers on the same rope.

Now Princess Sissi's escape was no big deal. After all, although she had spent a lot of effort teaching her talents, she had also earned a lot of money.

Apart from the fact that she was originally intended to be sent to the front line as a sacrifice, there was nothing else to regret about it.

After all, this is the combined bloodline of two countries, and using it to insult the enemy country is the best choice.

The Dayan Dynasty and the Wubang have been at odds for a long time. Who knows where to find a young lady of such pedigree? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The shopkeeper sighed. He no longer wanted to hear these young ladies crying, but there was nothing he could do.

If Princess Sissi's escape had nothing to do with Madam Rong, then it didn't matter. She could run away wherever she wanted. Right now, I really didn't have the time and energy to take care of her.

But if Madam Rong’s disappearance is related to Princess Sissi, then the problem would be huge.

A Lianmi is a pervert. If he knew that it was the young lady in his restaurant, and the Princess Sissi whom he could never get, who was kept as a mistress by him, and now wanted to poison Madam Rong to death, it would be related to her escape.

Then he will definitely go crazy, and it is not certain whether their alliance will be established by then.

The shopkeeper's face was full of worry, his brows were furrowed, and he was very upset.

She kept rubbing her temples with her hands, as if this could help her get rid of the depression in her heart.

In addition, the young ladies in front of her were still crying, and she finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily, "From now on, if you still cry, go to the backyard to find the nanny to receive punishment!!!"

She almost yelled, so everyone was stunned, unable to believe that such a roar came from the shopkeeper's mouth.

Although the shopkeeper did have his moments of extreme rage, generally speaking, as long as they could make money, he would never yell at them.

But now...

Everyone fell silent, not daring to cry, but tears of fear still rolled down their cheeks as they trembled.

The shopkeeper finally could no longer hear the annoying crying, and felt a lot better for a moment.

“Okay, now that you’re done crying, let’s talk… When was the last time you saw Princess Ceci?

You must remember everything. I am just asking you, not holding you responsible. You don't need to cry so much, after all, we still have to open tonight. It's okay if you can't see Princess Ceci, but if you open tonight with a swollen face and no customers are willing to order, you are done.

There has been war all over the place recently. You can see that there is another war going on in Wubang. The customer flow is already low. If you keep crying and whining and don’t serve the customers well, I... "

As he spoke, the shopkeeper had a weird smile on his face and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Everyone was so frightened that they dared not move, nor make any eye contact.

Finally someone brave enough stood up.

"Shopkeeper, the last time I saw Princess Ceci was this morning. She was dressed very simply and didn't take me seriously at all. She walked past me as if I were invisible.

I usually couldn't say anything to her, so I didn't ask her what she was going to do. She was accompanied by two maids, who were dressed the same as they usually were in the restaurant, so I didn't feel like she was going out."

The shopkeeper finally heard "human words" instead of the shy crying, and nodded with satisfaction. He waved his hand and let the man go down to rest.

After saying this, the little girl sighed with relief and hurried back to her room.

Another little girl also came up. She looked at the shopkeeper timidly. She envied the sister who could already rest.

"The last time I saw Princess Ceci was last night. I couldn't sleep last night, and as soon as the guests left, I thought of going out to get some water. I saw Princess Ceci still awake, sitting in front of her attic, and I didn't know what she was doing."

The shopkeeper looked at the little girl, then suddenly looked away and asked, "What time was it last night? Are you sure that person was Princess Ceci?"
