Traveling through time and space to become a concubine: I just want to live a leisurely life

Shen Jingyi gently placed her hand on her slightly bulging belly, with a hint of kindness and compassion in her eyes.

She hates to see children suffer.

Her child is about to be born, which gives her a deeper understanding and experience of maternal love.

She couldn't bear the thought of losing her child.

Therefore, when she saw the child stealer in front of her, the anger in her heart instantly erupted.

She asked angrily, "Tell me, why did you steal the child? Do you have other accomplices? Where is your hideout?"

However, the man just lowered his head, tightly covered the wound on his body, and said nothing.

King Xuan glanced at Chuqi, who immediately understood and took the man behind the screen.

Afterwards, King Xuan gently took Shen Jingyi's hand, his tone full of concern: "Don't be angry, be careful not to affect our child."

Shen Jingyi nodded silently, with a trace of sadness in her eyes: "I really can't stand these hateful people.

Every child is a treasure in the family! If my child was stolen, I would go crazy. "

As she spoke, she gently stroked her belly with her warm hands, as if comforting the little life in her belly.

King Xuan glared at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If anyone dares to steal, I will chop him into pieces."

Shen Jingyi couldn't help laughing and said coquettishly: "I was just thinking about it just now."

At this time, Chuqi dragged the captured man and slowly walked out from behind the screen.

The man was dragged out in a miserable state, his face was haggard and his clothes were in tatters, it was obvious that he had suffered severe torture.

His expression was exactly the same as the one he had shown when Chunliu interrogated Aunt Hua before, and he was obviously treated the same way.

Shen Jingyi doesn't care about the means behind it, she only cares about the results. As long as it is effective, it is a good means.

The man was thrown heavily to the ground.

Chu Qi randomly tapped him twice, and he cried out in pain, "Ah, ah, ah"

Chu Qi looked down at him, his eyes as cold as a knife, and kicked him: "Don't shout, speak quickly."

The man grimaced in pain, but did not dare to resist. He could only gasp and said in a trembling voice: "We hid six children outside the city and agreed to pick them up at midnight tonight."

He paused and continued, "I only know that Brother Xiong asked us to do this. As for the rest, I really don't know."

King Xuan frowned slightly, "Brother Xiong, is this the son of Master?"

His voice was calm, but every word was filled with unquestionable authority.

The man nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, it's him."

"How many people were there to pick up the child?" King Xuan continued to ask.

"Usually there are three people coming," the man's voice was low and trembling. He was extremely scared at the moment.

"Where do they ship the children to?"

"I, I don't know," the man seemed a little flustered, "What I know is that the children will be sold."

After hearing this, Shen Jingyi realized that this was not the first time they had done something like this, and she was very angry. She asked loudly, "What do you mean you don't know? Don't you usually ask anything?"

"We are just small characters at the bottom. Brother Xiong will arrange everything."

The man tried desperately to explain himself, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, his eyes flashing with fear and pleading, "We were only responsible for stealing the children and then waiting for them to pick them up. No one ever told us the other specific details."

King Xuan was silent for a moment, then he stood up and looked at the man with a sharp gaze, "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise..."

He didn't continue, but the man already felt a chill.

"I've told you everything I know, seriously." The man answered in a trembling voice.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now. Now, you lead us to where the child is hidden. You must not use any tricks, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

King Xuan's voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for doubt.

The man nodded repeatedly to indicate that he didn't dare.

Then, King Xuan turned his gaze to Chuqi and ordered, "Chuqi, take a few people with him and bring the children back safely. As for the others, try to leave them alive."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chuqi responded, picked up the man on the ground without hesitation, and walked out quickly.

When the man on the ground heard the title "Prince", he was so frightened that he trembled all over, and endless fear surged in his heart.

He never expected that the seemingly ordinary-looking man in front of him was actually a distinguished prince.

However, Chu Qi didn't care about his thoughts and quickly took him out of the room.

After they left, Shen Jingyi looked at the child in Qiuju's arms with pity and asked, "What about this child?"

"Don't worry, we'll send someone out to look for the child later. If the child is lost, they will definitely look for him everywhere."

At this time, King Xuan had put away his previous majesty and coldness, and turned back into the gentle prince that Shen Jingyi was familiar with.

Qiu Ju also smiled and said, "I think this child is lucky to have met the prince and the concubine twice, otherwise he might really be in danger."

Shen Jingyi looked at the sleeping face of the child and chuckled, "Yes, he's a lucky little guy."

Suddenly, a woman's cry came from the street below: "Qiangqiang, where are you! Come back to your mother!"

When Shen Jingyi heard the voice, he stood up and leaned out to look outside.

King Xuan was worried that Shen Jingyi might bump into something or fall, so he had to walk over and hug her waist.

The woman's voice outside was on the verge of collapse, but she was still calling.

"Qiangqiang...my Qiangqiang...where are you...Qiangqiang..."

The cries were heartbreaking. Shen Jingyi frowned and looked at King Xuan.

At this moment, a man's voice came from a distance: "Wife, have you found it?"

"No, I looked everywhere but couldn't find any trace of Qiangqiang."

The man's voice became anxious: "How could this happen? Where did Qiangqiang go?"

"I don't know. The child was playing at home. I went to cook, but when I turned around, Qiangqiang was gone. Woo woo woo..."

"Don't worry, we'll look for it again, and we'll definitely find it."

The man's voice was firm, as if giving the woman a glimmer of hope.

The woman nodded and continued to call the child's name, hoping for a response.

The man turned and asked passers-by.

"Excuse me, have you seen a five-year-old boy, this tall, wearing blue clothes?"

There was a trace of pity in the man's eyes, "I didn't see it."

The man didn't give up and asked other people.

When they saw the woman, they knew that the child's parents had come.

Shen Jingyi is very conflicted now. She doesn't want to make the parents sad, but she is also afraid of disrupting King Xuan's plan and letting the person escape.

As if King Xuan knew Shen Jingyi's concerns, he patted her shoulder gently and comforted her: "It's okay, we can send her back quietly."

His tone was firm but gentle, as if everything was under control.

Shen Jingyi smiled, gave King Xuan a thumbs up, and praised sincerely: "Your Majesty, you are really amazing, it seems that there is nothing you can't do!"

King Xuan was very pleased with Shen Jingyi's praise.

So, he instructed Chunliu, "Go and tell them that the child is fine, ask them to leave their address, then symbolically look for him for a while, and then go back and wait."

After listening to this, Chunliu nodded and flew downstairs.
