The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Chapter 117: Mother and Son Separation

In the wealthy palace, Zixuan was chatting with Boyuan: "Husband, why don't you stay in the hospital for a few more days? Why are you returning to the palace so soon?"

"Xuan'er, my husband doesn't want to smell the medicine. Besides, my injuries can be treated with Jiang's care. There's no need for me to stay in the hospital."

"When Bo Yuan can't see Xuan'er for a while, he loses his appetite and can't sleep at night, hehe."

Zixuan thought about it and realized that who would want to stay in the hospital for a long time?

Smelling alcohol every day and seeing the painful expressions of patients will make their illness more serious even if they are not sick.

The two were chatting when Zixuan's phone rang. She saw that it was Jiyi calling and quickly answered it.

As soon as the call was connected, Ji Yi's voice came over: "Your Majesty, the northwest gate guard Ji Ershi just reported in."

"Young Master Ri is leading Peng Qi's daughter Peng Ruo out of the city gate to the State of Yan."

"He doesn't know the situation, so he's asking if you're sending them to Yan State on some business?"

Zixuan was stunned. What was Ri'er doing in Yan State? He even brought Peng Ruo with him.

She immediately replied, "Ji Yi, tell Ji Er Shi not to let Zi Ri and the others leave the city. I'll be there soon!"

"Yes!" Ji Yi agreed, hung up the phone, and called Ji Ershi again.

After Ji Ershi answered the phone, he said to Zi Ri with a playful smile: "Sir, it's not that I don't want you to leave the city, it's really the king's order that cannot be disobeyed."

"The Prime Minister just called and said the Queen will be here soon. You should wait until the Queen arrives and speak to her in person."

When they heard Zixuan was coming, they immediately turned pale with fear. How did his mother know? What should they do?

Just when everyone was panicking, Zixuan walked up to them.

Several people were startled and knelt down hurriedly to pay their respects: "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, my mother."

Zixuan looked at everyone and didn't let them stand. "Ziri, I heard you're taking Ruo'er to Yan State?"

"Why don't you tell your mother and ask her to send soldiers to escort you there?"

Zi Ri thought to himself: I must not tell the truth to my mother, otherwise I will be dead.

"Ah, mother, well, this is what happened. Ri'er and Ru'er have been in love since they were young, so they secretly decided to spend their lives together."

"But Ruo'er's father disagreed and insisted on separating us."

"After much deliberation, we two had no other choice but to elope together and go live in the State of Yan."

"Please, mother, have mercy on me and let Ruo'er leave the city!"

When Zixuan heard that it was because of this, he put his worries aside.

She looked at Peng Ruo. This kid was good. He had been following Ri'er to play in the palace since he was a child. She liked him very much.

"Ruo'er, did you elope with Zi Ri willingly, or did Zi Ri force you to do so?"

"Your Majesty, Ruoer did it willingly, and Ziri did not force me."

Zixuan nodded. It would be a good idea for the two of them to go to Yan State. First, they could broaden their horizons, and second, it could hone their characters.

"Is there a place to go in Yan State? Do you have enough silver?" Zixuan asked with concern.

When Zi Ri saw that his mother did not blame him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mother, Ri'er has a good friend in the State of Yan. He plans to go there and has brought some gold and silver with him."

Well, Zixuan turned on his mind reading ability and stared at his son for a while.

Commander Twenty: "Go to the reserve force and select one hundred strong soldiers."

"Have them dress up as merchants and follow you around to protect your safety."

"Also, find a few more carriages for them to ride in. Cars are not allowed to leave the city when you go to Yan State."

"Also, mobile phones and all other prohibited items are not allowed to be taken out of the city."

Zi Ri nodded helplessly: "Okay, mother, I will be leaving soon, please take care of yourself."

"Well, you too. Be careful on your way to Yan State, and remember to write to your mother often."

As the mother and son were giving each other instructions, a hundred soldiers and a dozen carriages arrived at the city gate.

Zixuan asked Boss Ji to move several boxes of knife coins and horseshoe gold from the gold and silver vault and put them in the carriage.

After watching them get into the car and leave, she said to herself, "Damn, mother knows you didn't tell the truth."

Although I don’t know what you have done, as long as you behave yourself and live a good life from now on, I won’t care about the past.

After Zi Ri and Peng Ruo had walked a few miles, a soldier came and reported that there were several large boxes in the carriage. He didn't know what they were and asked Zi Ri to come over and take a look.

Zi Ri and Peng Ruo were also very curious, and immediately got out of the car and came closer to the box.

When Zi Ri opened the box and saw it was full of horseshoe gold and knife coins, tears flowed down his face.

He fell to his knees with a thud and kowtowed several times in the direction of Fugui City.

After lunch, Mrs. Peng immediately led several maids and guards into a sedan and hurried to Peng Qi's villa.

At this time, the Peng family was in chaos. Mrs. Peng came to Peng Qi crying and said that her daughter had not come back all night.

Let Peng Qi send someone to look for him immediately. If he is not found, she will not live anymore.

Peng Qi was also frightened when he heard this. How could Ruoer disappear?

My daughter is the ladder I climbed up, so nothing must happen to her.

So he quickly ordered people to search everywhere, to find the person alive or the body dead.

Just as everyone was looking for Peng Ruo, a servant came to report that the aunt had returned.

Peng Qi was delighted. Did her aunt know Ruo'er's whereabouts? She quickly ordered someone to invite her aunt in.

Peng Qi saw his aunt walk in with a dark face and asked hurriedly, "Aunt, what happened?"

Peng ordered everyone to retreat, looked at him with angry eyes and said coldly: "Peng Qi! You did a great job!"

Peng Qi was stunned and asked in confusion, "Aunt, I didn't do anything to Ruo'er. It's not my nephew's fault that she disappeared!"

"I didn't say anything about Ruo'er! I was talking about Zixu!"

Peng Qi was shocked. "Zi, Zixu? What happened to Zixu? What does he have to do with me?"

"Don't play dumb with me! I'm asking you! Did you send someone to assassinate Zixu?"

"Zixu was assassinated? What does his assassination have to do with me? Who said I was the one who assassinated Zixu?"

"Are you still quibbling? I heard the conversation between Ziri and Ruoer clearly."

"You're clearly using Ruo'er's marriage as leverage, hoping to force Ri'er to agree to kill Zixu and let him take his place, thus fulfilling your dream of becoming Prime Minister?"

"Now the two children have run away from home because of you, and their whereabouts are still unknown! How dare you say that you didn't do this!"

"Ah! Ri'er and Ru'er ran away from home? How is that possible?"

"Haha! Are you waiting for the king to find out and exterminate your entire clan if you don't run away from home?"

"Peng Qi! You are such an audacious traitor! Today I must teach you a lesson!

Just as Mrs. Peng rolled up her sleeves and was about to take action, Mrs. Peng, who was eavesdropping outside, pushed open the door and rushed towards Peng Qi like a madman.

"You bastard! Damn you! Give me back my daughter! Give me back my daughter!"

While shouting, he grabbed Peng Qi's face with his sharp claws.

When Mrs. Peng saw Ruo'er's mother grabbing Peng Qi, she also stretched out her hands and scratched him hard.
