Chapter 72 Xue Haoyu is missing
The next day, the Xue family still hadn't discovered anything had happened to Xue Haoyu. They lived in separate courtyards, and Xue Haoyu often drank and prostituted in brothels and often stayed out all night.
Mrs. Xue often concealed the truth for him, resulting in no one knowing that Xue Haoyu had died last night.
After Jiang Zongwei finished his work, he came to the place where he had agreed to meet with Brother Bin. Brother Bin smiled and asked, "Did you bring the seal of Lord Jiang?"
Jiang Zongwei now hates Brother Bin and Liu Dong who cheated him out of gambling money, but he dares not speak out.
After looking around to make sure there was no one he knew, he carefully took out Xue Zhong's seal and handed it to Brother Bin, "Hurry up and stamp it. I have to return it after you're done."
"Don't worry, no one wants your seal."
Brother Bin stamped the letter he had prepared in advance, and then returned the seal to Jiang Zongwei. He smiled slightly and said, "Master Jiang, don't forget me when you need money in the future."
Jiang Zongwei clutched the seal tightly and walked away without looking back, angrily saying, "I never want to see you again."
Brother Bin came to the pharmacy. Shen Rou was already waiting there. Seeing Brother Bin coming, she smiled and said, "Brother Bin, is it finished?"
"Miss Shen, take a look."
Shen Rou took the letter and looked at it carefully. It said that Xue Zhong had accepted 10,000 taels of silver from Yang Qinghua and promised to find him an official position. It also had Xue Zhong's seal on it.
Shen Rou smiled with satisfaction, took out a banknote from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Brother Bin, "Thank you for your help, Brother Bin."
"Miss Shen, you're welcome. If you need me, Li, in the future, just let me know."
"Thank you."
After seeing Brother Bin leave, Shen Rou instructed Liu Qi and the others, "Liu Qi, continue to monitor the Xue Mansion and Jiang Zongwei's every move. Wang Jian, monitor Huo Xi at the Huo Mansion. Tell me immediately if you have any news."
Wang Jian asked in confusion: "Miss Shen, what is the grudge between you and Huo Xi? Why are you monitoring her?"
Shen Rou looked at them and asked, "She sent people to my hometown to kill me, and she also said that I was blocking her happiness. Who do you think is her happiness?"
Several people were shocked. Did Huo Xi know that the master liked Miss Shen? So she sent someone to kill her. Did she know that the Huo family and the Queen Mother would know about Miss Shen's existence and whether this matter had to be told to the master?
None of them dared to answer Shen Rou's question. After all, the master had kept his identity a secret from Miss Shen until now. Even if he wanted to tell her, it would be the master himself.
Several people perfunctorily said: "We have been in the military camp for many years and don't know what is happening in the capital, let alone Miss Huo."
Shen Rou looked at them in silence, thinking, "Do you think I don't know that Huo Xi likes Prince Mu? Prince Mu is your master, and you still want to hide it from me? I want to see how long you can hide it."
Xue Mansion
The next day, Mrs. Xue still hadn't seen her youngest son, so she called the maids and servants who served him.
"Yingzi, is the young master back?"
"Madam, the young master hasn't been back for three days."
Madam Xue was immediately shocked and said, "Haoyu, why didn't you come to report to me after not coming back for three days?"
"The last time I came to report, the master heard me and punished me according to the family rules. The young master was beaten and lay in bed for half a month. Please order me not to report the young master's whereabouts in the future."
"When I told you not to report in front of the master, it wasn't that I didn't want to report the young master's whereabouts. You idiot, you can't even hear what I'm saying, what use are you to me?"
Yingzi quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, "Madam, I know I was wrong, please forgive me."
"If anything happens to the young master, I will skin you alive."
"Xiao Jiang, you are the young master's attendant. Where is the young master?"
"The day before yesterday, the young master went to the "Yuanyang Pavilion," to the room of the courtesan Dieyi. He ordered me to come back, saying he would come back naturally when he had enough fun."
"Now go to the Mandarin Duck Pavilion and quietly bring the young master back. Don't make any noise, or the master will get the cane and beat him again."
"Yes."
After more than an hour, Xiao Jiang came running to report in a panic, "Madam, the young master left Miss Dieyi's room the night before yesterday."
Mrs. Xue was immediately flustered. "What? He left. Why didn't he come back home?"
"Butler, hurry, hurry... send someone to look for him and bring the young master back safely."
"Yes."
"Xiao Jiang, go call the doorman."
Soon Xiao Jiang came over with a man in his twenties. "Madam, why did you ask me to come here?"
"Did the young master return home the night before yesterday?"
"No."
"Is there really no such thing, or you just don't know."
Seeing that Madam Xue's face was not in a good state, the doorman dared not tell the truth. That night he went to have a tryst with the maid Liu Zhi in the mansion, and left the corner door open to prevent the young master from returning home at night.
"To answer Madam, I really don't have any."
Mrs. Xue was immediately anxious and fidgeted. The nanny beside her hurriedly comforted her, "Madam, don't worry. It's not uncommon for the young master to spend the night away. He will be back soon."
"Mammy, I'm feeling very anxious. I have a feeling something bad is going to happen."
"Don't worry! Young master is a lucky man and will be fine."
When Liu Qi learned that the servants of the Xue Mansion were searching for Xue Haoyu everywhere, he immediately reported: "Miss Shen, the youngest son of the Minister of Revenue has disappeared, and the servants of the mansion are searching everywhere for him."
"Liu Qi, we will help search secretly. No matter whether he is dead or alive, he will be dead."
"Yes,"
Housekeeper Xue took the servants in the mansion to look for Xue Haoyu everywhere. After Xue Zhong left the court, he learned that his youngest son was missing. Although he was angry, he was also worried about his safety.
He yelled at Madam Xue: "It's all because of you, otherwise he wouldn't just eat, drink and have fun and never come home every day."
"Dad, what's the point of blaming Mom now? The most important thing is to find Haoyu as soon as possible."
"Master, Fan'er is right. Finding the right person as soon as possible is the most important thing."
"Mom and Dad, let's report it to the authorities! If the Jingzhao prefect sends someone to look for him, hurry up."
"If I report this to the authorities, my Xue family will become the biggest joke in the capital. I, Xue Zhong, cannot afford to lose this face."
"Master, it's already this late and you still care about your reputation. Haoyu's life is the most important."
When Jiang Zongwei heard them talking about reporting to the police, he immediately panicked, "Dad, Madam..."
"Son-in-law Jiang is here. Do you know that Haoyu is missing?"
Jiang Zongwei forced himself to remain calm and said, "I just learned about it. Haoyu must be out and about somewhere. He knows his family is looking for him everywhere, so he should be back soon."
Mrs. Xue roared: "You have no right to speak anywhere. What if Haoyu doesn't come back?"
"If you don't come back, I'll report it to the authorities tomorrow."
Xue Ying knew that Xue Haoyu was missing and immediately smiled happily. "Xue Haoyu is Madam's precious son. It would be better if he died outside. Madam can't accept this blow and dies with him!"
"For so many years, she has been harshly treating us mother and daughter. My mother has been suppressed by her and her life is not much better than that of a servant in the mansion. Such a vicious woman deserves retribution."
While everyone was talking in the main hall and the servants in the mansion had gone out to look for Xue Haoyu, Jiang Zongwei quietly put the seal back to its original place before returning to his room with peace of mind.
Xue Zhong and his family of three chatted for a long time in the main hall. He returned to the study and said in front of his wife and son that Xue Haoyu must be fine.
But he returned to the study and paced back and forth. Although his son was an unmotivated playboy, he was his own son after all. He would rather he live a life of drunkenness and dreams in some gentle place than let anything happen to him.
