Cute Wife Divorce Husband: Black-bellied Prince and Little Dumb Concubine

Chapter 516 There is no silver 300 taels here

"Don't worry. In fact, Rui'er's whereabouts have been roughly figured out."

"Where is Rui'er?! I want to see him!"

"No matter where Rui'er is, he will be safe, I promise!"

"You lied to me again. Those who kidnapped Rui'er don't know what kind of villain they are. He is too young. He has been away for more than a month. How can he stand up to such a long separation and tossing..." Her eyes were red and swollen, sobbing .

He reached out and stroked her shoulder, hoping to calm down her emotions slowly.

"In the name of the Great Chu Emperor, I guarantee that Rui'er will not be in danger. They kidnapped Rui'er just for the sake of something."

She looked at Xiang Chengye slightly in a daze, and held his hand, "Whatever they plan, whatever they plan, you can give them!" Seeing Xiang Chengye's eyes were slightly condensed, she thought he was hesitating, and said hastily, "You You won't save him, right?"

"I said, for you, I will save him. Believe me—"

He looked at her with strong eyes, and she gradually regained her strength. At this moment, she let go of the emperor's hand and lay back on the couch, muttering in her mouth: "Without Ruier, I can't live, I can't live... I can't find Ruier." , I will not marry..."

Although the words were almost talking to himself, it was very uncomfortable for Xiang Chengye to fall into his heart.

Gentle, I love you and will do everything for you, but I don't want you to marry me because of your child.If you don't have me in your heart, I will never force you.

He felt sorry for her, and looked at her with relief: "You just rest, I will take you to see someone tomorrow."

The light on the couch didn't hear it, and was only immersed in his own sadness.

Looking up again, only a corner of his dragon robe can be seen, the emperor has already come out of the bed.

*
The emperor's meditation room usually only receives very close people.

Today, however, a stranger came.

Someone from below came forward to salute, "Old Minister Xiang Yu kowtowed to His Majesty the Emperor, wishing His Majesty a healthy dragon and everything goes well, and wishing the Great Chu a long and peaceful life."

He said that he wanted to kneel down and worship, but he was not in a hurry.

Xiang Chengye who was on the dragon bed said flatly: "The emperor is free."

He also ordered the left and right, "The king of Xiangan is rushing all the way to Beijing, quickly get a stool for the emperor."

Xiang Yushi, the king of southern Hunan, was a cousin of the late emperor's uncle, not Xiang Chengye's real uncle. In terms of distance, he was not as good as Prince Rui's eleventh uncle.The emperor didn't call him the emperor's uncle, but it was okay to call him by his first name.

Xiang Yu coughed slightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En." After speaking, he sat down on the seat on one side, and glanced at the curtain inadvertently.

Qing Wei behind the curtain was looking at the 50-year-old King of Shonan.

As soon as he entered the room just now, he felt that he was a burly figure, he looked like a military general, and his beard and beard made him look more and more majestic.

This person is the King of Shonan, who is the King of Shonan?

Is he the person Master asked me to meet?
I just heard the master outside say: "I don't know how much clues are there in the matter I asked the emperor to investigate?"

"Return to Your Majesty, there is no whereabouts yet."

The emperor slammed the table, "Then why did you come to see me?!"

"The old minister is aware of his mistake, but he has sent several troops to search all over Xiangnan County, but there is no baby as His Majesty mentioned."

The hand that was holding the handkerchief lightly tightened, and the body suddenly leaned on the back of the chair, and the heart was mostly cold.

"Really?" The emperor glanced coldly, "If I had sent another team to search the bottom of the sky, maybe it wouldn't have been the result."

The King of Xiangan's expression froze, but he still said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty thinks so, the old minister is terrified. Although the child's whereabouts have not been found this time, he has also brought some news to His Majesty."

"what news?"

"According to the ultimatums issued by the Chengguan of Nan'an County and Xiangnan County, it is said that Emperor Qi has been to the two places. I am thinking that there must be important reasons why Emperor Qi took the risk to come to Chu."

"I also know about this matter. What I am more curious about is what made Xiao Zijun go to Nan'an and Xiangnan counties in person. Could it be that these two counties have given him some priceless benefits, or is there a reason why he has to go? "

King Shonan's neck was sweating a little.

Shonan County is the fiefdom of the King of Shonan for generations, and Nan'an County was recently sent by the emperor to garrison the army of the King of Shonan to fight against the army of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

This Nan'an County was taken back by Xiang Chengye during the civil strife in the Northern Qi Dynasty. Now it is very likely that Emperor Qi will take back Nan'an County after he ascends the throne.

In any case, these two counties are related to the King of Shonan, which is self-evident.The emperor suspected that he, the king of Xiangnan, had colluded with Emperor Qi.

Therefore, this child is more likely to be related to the King of Shonan.

Xiang Yu originally wanted to throw out a burden to attract the emperor's attention, but he never thought that it would add a layer of suspicion to himself instead.

At this moment, he knelt down tremblingly, "The minister failed His Majesty's expectations and let Emperor Qi pass by under his nose."

"I don't blame you. I knew Xiao Zijun in the early years, and I also expected him to be cunning. How can I blame you. But from this point of view, you in Xiangnan County have to dig deeper, and you will find the child if you don't know it."

The emperor said lightly, "but don't worry, uncle, I have clear grievances and grievances. Even if there are bad people doing evil in the uncle's territory, I will only order the uncle to find out the bad guys, and I will definitely not tarnish the name of loyalty of the uncle."

Speaking of this, Xiang Yu had a feeling in his heart, so he had no choice but to agree, "The old minister will try his best to find this baby. I dare to guarantee with my head that the Xiangnan County Prince's Mansion has not hidden this child, but if someone sneaks into Xiangnan The county, the minister will definitely investigate strictly."

"Uncle, Uncle Huang, what you said is not satisfactory. What do you mean that the Prince's Mansion of Xiangnan County has not hidden children? It sounds a bit suspicious of 'there is no silver 300 taels here'—"

Before the words finished, Xiang Yu turned pale with anxiety, and wanted to defend himself, but the emperor stretched out his hand to stop him, "The king of Xiangan is not in a hurry, and it is fortunate that I understand the sincerity of the emperor's uncle for so many years. I don't believe your emperor's uncle. Can you trust outsiders?"

The emperor's words really reached Xiang Yu's heart.

Xiang Yu hurriedly lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, kowtowing his head very hard, "With His Majesty's words, the old minister will do his best, and he will not hesitate to do so!"

"Hurry up and help my uncle up—"

The left and right inner eunuchs helped Xiang Yu up, Xiang Yu's eyes were slightly red, and he said, "Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, the old minister is far away in the county, and has never received an edict. I am afraid day and night, fearing that Your Majesty will be deceived by some slander—— "

At this point, Xiang Yu knew that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly said, "Xiang Yu is old and can't speak, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

"I also heard that you, Xiang Yu, are upright. What you say is not very pleasant, but when the late emperor was there, he told me that with the emperor's uncle, the south of Hunan and the east of the Great Chu will be safe and sound. I understand that you are Loyal minister."

Ning Qingyuan listened louder behind the curtain, but she understood a lot.

The master was comforting the Shonan king, letting the Shonan king understand that the emperor did not doubt him.

Then the conversation turned around, "Uncle Huang, there is someone I want to let you meet."

Xiang Yu looked at the curtain all of a sudden, and calmed down, as if he had expected it.

After a while, there was the sound of the bead curtain being stirred.

I picked up the curtain on the left and right, and a gorgeous beauty came out from inside, with a slim figure and a picturesque face.

Time seemed to stop.

Although Xiang Yu is over 50 years old, he still recognizes who she is.
