Looking at Tai'an from the full moon

South Study Room——

After Yun Feng had searched for several days without any results, Concubine Yun angrily threw all the papers and pens on the desk to vent her anger.

"I'm so angry! This Yun Feng, who led so many people but failed to find the source of the rumor, is such a loser! Cough, cough!"

Concubine Yun was so angry that she started coughing. Seeing this, Xue, the manager beside her, hurried to comfort Concubine Yun.

"Your Highness, you must take care of yourself and don't be angry about this. General Yun is just not used to his current status and doesn't know how to act as a general. But your Highness knows that General Yun has always been loyal to you. As long as he is guided, he will definitely understand how to work for you one day."

After hearing this, Concubine Yun looked at Xue Wan with a playful smile on her face.

"I understand that you are attracted to General Yun~"

After hearing this, Xue Wan did not deny it, but admitted it generously.

"General Yun is the queen's man. He is a young and handsome man, and I am naturally attracted to him. But I am mediocre and cannot catch the eye of General Yun."

Concubine Yun curled her lips, calmed herself down and sat down.

"I think what you said makes sense. General Yun has always been loyal to me, but he is still not clear about some things, so it is inevitable that he does things that are not to my liking. General Yun is now old enough to get married and have children, and Manager Xue was also promoted by me, and he does things that are most to my liking. The two of you will definitely be a help to me!"

When Xue Wan heard this, he knelt down and kowtowed.

"I was promoted by the Majesty. Now that I am favored by the Majesty and can marry the one I love, I should do my best to repay the Majesty in the future. I will also guide General Haoyun on how to help the Majesty solve problems."

"Okay! Mu Dai, get some paper and pen again. I want to arrange a marriage between General Yun and Manager Xue!"

"Yes~"

Just as Mu Dai responded, another male voice was heard from outside the door.

"Is this a happy event? Who is the concubine going to marry?"

After leaving the court, Xiao Zuoqing went to visit Concubine Xian first, and then came to the Southern Study. Originally, he had nothing to report to Concubine Yun today, but when he went to the Buddhist temple just now, Concubine Xian seemed to have some hidden meaning when she spoke to him.

"

"How are you lately, Qing'er?"

"I am fine, mother. How is your health today?"

"Mother, everything is fine. But mother has been thinking recently that if mother had family power, or if she had strategy and brains, my son would have suffered less. In the end, it is because of mother's uselessness that my son has suffered."

Prince Qing was puzzled as to why his mother, who had devoted herself to Buddhism, would suddenly say such a thing.

"You are just worrying too much. Everything is fine now, and I have never felt that you are a burden to me. You gave birth to me and raised me with great difficulty. I will never be able to repay you for your kindness in giving birth to me, so how dare I despise you?"

What Prince Qing said was sincere. Concubine Xian stared into his sincere eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes unconsciously.

If Concubine Xian had not heard what he said with her own ears, she would have really believed that her son did not despise her.

"Mother, has Concubine Yun come to see you often recently? I heard from the eunuch who cleans the outer courtyard that Concubine Yun often comes back to this Buddhist temple. I wonder if she has caused you any trouble?"

The virtuous concubine shook her head.

"Noble Concubine Yun is just bored sometimes and wants to talk to me. After all, this Buddhist temple is the only place in the palace that can make her feel a little peaceful."

'

The virtuous concubine did not tell the whole reason at that time, but she also told half the truth.

Later, the mother and son chatted about some family matters, and then Prince Qing left. Although his mother still spoke to him normally, he always felt that something was strange, as if his mother was holding back something.

When Concubine Yun saw Xiao Zuoqing coming, she waved her hand and asked Xue Wan to go first. Xiao Zuoqing stared at Xue Wan who was retreating and couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected of someone trained by the Imperial Concubine, she has transformed to this level in just two months."

Concubine Yun ignored his words and asked him directly.

"What are you doing here today?"

Xiao Zuoqing smiled faintly.

"I heard that the Imperial Concubine has been going to the Buddhist temple to worship Buddha recently. I wonder if the Imperial Concubine has anything to worry about? Oh, that's right! I also heard that there seems to be some trouble in the cities and counties around Tai'an City recently. I'm sure the Imperial Concubine is also worried about this."

As Xiao Zuoqing spoke, he casually picked up the fruits on the table beside him and started eating them, not caring at all about the murderous look that Concubine Yun was giving him.

"So you are here to see me make fun of you?"

"Of course not. I am here to help the Imperial Concubine. As long as the Imperial Concubine tells me the truth about the matter, I will naturally find a way to help her solve it~"

Concubine Yun chuckled, and her eyes were full of mockery when she looked at Xiao Zuoqing. It was too funny that he was blatantly asking for her weakness.

"Does Prince Qing think I'm stupid? Those rumors outside the palace are not credible, and they will not affect my status. Don't have these crooked thoughts!"

When Concubine Yun was holding the pen in her right hand and was about to continue writing the imperial edict, a young eunuch suddenly ran in from outside the door to report.

"My Queen~My Queen, something bad has happened!"

"What are you so worried about?"

Concubine Yun frowned, looking unhappy. The young eunuch was frightened and began to stutter.

"Xiaohong, the maid in Tai'an Palace, said..."

"Just tell me what you said!"

"...It means that Emperor Ren is missing!"

"What!?"

"what?"

Concubine Yun was instantly struck by lightning, and even Xiao Zuoqing, who had been planning to watch the fun, was shocked by the news.

"How could such a big person disappear?"

"Go find it for me now!"

"Yes Yes Yes Yes!"

"Wait! I want that maid named Xiaohong to come in and see me!"

"Yes!"

After Xiaohong was called in, the young eunuch quickly slipped out to look for Emperor Mingren with others.

"My Queen~"

"Tell me, how did the person get lost?"

Xiaohong was so scared that she fell to her knees with a plop.

"Your Majesty, I just went out to fetch a basin of water, and when I came back Emperor Mingren was gone."

"Just went out to get a basin of water?"

Concubine Yun was puzzled, but Xiaohong bit herself to death and just fetched a basin of water.

"Yes, I was wiping the emperor's limbs in the palace. I was about to change the basin of water and come back to wipe them again, but when I came back, the emperor was no longer on the bed. I searched for the emperor in the palace for a while but couldn't find him..."

"It took only a few minutes to get some water and we lost the person. It seems that the person who took my father away is very familiar with this palace. Could it be that my father suddenly got better and left on his own?"

Xiao Zuoqing did not forget to test Concubine Yun at this time. Concubine Yun glanced at him and ignored him, but sent someone to tell Yun Feng to bring people into the palace to find the whereabouts of Emperor Mingren.
