The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

Chapter 273: No retribution for life-saving grace

  Chapter 273 Life-saving grace is unrequited

  Xiao Xixi followed the prince and walked into the Dong's mansion. Two eunuchs also followed, while Yulin guards stayed outside the gate.

  A group of people entered the flower hall.

  The prince sat down in the main seat, and Xiao Xixi knelt and sat beside him.

  The others stood with low eyebrows pleasing to the eye, not daring to move.

The maids brought the best refreshments at home and placed them in front of the prince, and then stepped back silently.

  Xiao Xixi glanced at the prince first, and saw that he had no objection, only then stretched out his hand to pinch a piece of cake and ate it with relish.

  Dong Mingchun asked carefully.

   "His Royal Highness suddenly came to the Humble House. Is there any important order?"

  Luo Qinghan glanced at his right arm.

  Dong Mingchun's right arm was wrapped in gauze and hung from his chest. With his pale and uneasy look, it looked pitiful.

   Luo Qinghan said: "Gu already knows what happened last night, this time I came to see you specially, one is to visit you, and the other is to ask you something."

  Dong Mingchun is a sensible person. He knows what the prince wants to ask, so he winks at the sons behind him.

  The three sons understood, and immediately retired with interest.

  The two little eunuchs also silently exited the Flower Hall, standing on the left and right under the corridor, not allowing others to approach.

  Only Prince, Xiao Xixi, and Dong Mingchun remained in the spacious flower hall.

  Dong Mingchun knelt down again, supported the ground with one hand, and knocked his head towards the prince.

   "Thanks to His Majesty’s ingenious calculations, General Zhao led people to secretly protect the Welcomer in advance, and this saved our dog’s life. His life-saving grace is not repaid, and the Welder is willing to act as a horse for His Highness!"

   Luo Qinghan said indifferently: “You don’t need to be a cow or a horse. You tell Gu first, why do those killers look at you?”

  Dong Mingchun straightened up and said bitterly.

  "This matter should start with the wife of Weichen..."

  Dong Mingchun’s wife's maiden name is Lin.

  Lin’s personality is honest and gentle, and she has a good reputation in the circle of the family's wife. She and Dong Mingchun are young couples and have deep relationships.

  Lin’s is good at everything, that is, he highly praises the theory of ghosts and gods.

  She often runs to places like temples and Taoist temples. She burns incense and worships Buddha every fifteenth day of the lunar new year. If she wants to do important things, she must first go to the temple to ask for a visa and ask the Bodhisattva what she means.

  Not long ago, Lin was introduced by an acquaintance, contacting a sect called Dushengjiao, and then she indulged in and ran out all over the world.

  At first, Dong Mingchun didn't take this matter to heart. He thought that Lin's was just a momentary freshness. After this freshness, she should be back to normal.

  Who would have thought that Lin disappeared three days ago!

  Dong Mingchun asked his servants to search the entire Shengjing city, but they could not find her whereabouts.

   Just when Dong Mingchun was in a hurry, he suddenly received a mysterious letter.

The other party said in the letter that if he wants Lin to return home safely, Dong Mingchun has to take three thousand taels of silver tickets to the Shili Pavilion outside the city alone, where there will be a mark. Then he can just follow the mark to reach the destination. .

  At that time, the two sides will pay the money one hand and the other hand.

  I also attached an earring of Lin's to the letter, which proves that Lin's is indeed in the hands of the other party.

  Dong Mingchun was very worried about Lin's safety, he did not dare to report to the official, fearing that Lin's vote would be torn.

  So he took the silver ticket to Shiliting.

  He found the arrow mark in Shiliting, and then followed the mark into the grove. Who would have expected that not only did he not see Lin, he almost took his life in.

  Speaking of this, Dong Mingchun can't help feeling afraid.

   Fortunately, Zhao Xian came in time, otherwise he would be cold now.

  Luo Qinghan asked: "Since the other party is just asking for money, why should he kill you?"

  Dong Mingchun shook his head: "Weichen can't figure this out either."

  Luo Qinghan thought to himself that if the killers were really sent by the Watson Sect, it means that Watson Sect is not simple. Not only did they ask for money, but they also dared to assassinate the court commander. If these cancers cannot be removed, they will surely become a major disaster.

  He asked: "How much do you know about Dushengjiao?"

Dong Mingchun thought about it for a while and said: "This is a sect that has only recently emerged. Many of the wives and ladies of official eunuchs are followers of the Watson Sect. Joined the Dusheng Education."

  He paused when he said that, and then carefully glanced at Concubine Xiao.

   "The person who introduced Zhuo Jing to Watson Sect was Mrs. Xiao from General Zhongmu's Mansion."

  Xiao Xixi's eating action.

  She raised her head and looked surprised: "My mother?"

  Dong Mingchun is very careful when she speaks for fear of annoying her.

"The relationship between Zhuo Jing and Mrs. Xiao is pretty good. They often go to the temples to burn incense and worship Buddha together. Not long after Mrs. Xiao became a believer of Dusheng Sect, he brought Zhuo Jing in. These things were told by Zhuo Jing to the ministers. Yes, the specific details are not very clear."

  Xiao Xixi did not expect that this incident would also involve the Xue family.

Luo Qinghan said: "Have you ever asked Mrs. Xiao?"

  Dong Mingchun said with a weird expression.

"After learning that Zhuo Jing was missing, the Weichen immediately went to the Zhongwu General's Mansion and asked Madam Xiao about Dushengjiao. But Madam Xiao refused to say a word, and she repeatedly emphasized that Dushengjiao was teaching people. Xiang Shan, there is absolutely no kidnapping and extortion. There must be a misunderstanding. After all, Mrs. Xiao is the general's wife, and she insists on not saying that it is not easy for the minister to force her."

  Luo Qinghan turned his head to look at Xiao Xixi, and asked in a low voice, "Can you figure out the whereabouts of Mrs. Dong?"

  Xiao Xixi: "I need her birthdate."

  Luo Qinghan asked Dong Mingchun to say the eight characters of Lin's birthday.

  Dong Mingchun was very confused. He didn't understand why the prince suddenly asked about the birth date, but he honestly stated the birth date of Lin.

  Xiao Xixi closed her eyes and counted silently.

  She could feel the darkness and sleepiness, and the fear and anxiety that came like a tide.

  These are Lin's feelings at this time.

  Xiao Xixi opened her eyes, her face turned pale and her body swayed.

  Luo Qinghan took the initiative to let her lean on herself.

  Xiao Xixi whispered in his ear.

"Outside the city of Shengjing, in the village at the foot of Qishan, the Lin family was hidden in a cellar in the village, and the surroundings were very dark. She should have been drugged and had been in a coma, but there was no pain, presumably not. Injured, it is safe for the time being."

  Luo Qinghan immediately sent someone to inform Yu Linwei.

  Since Zhao Xian is still recovering from his injuries, the person leading the team this time is Shang Kui, the deputy commander of Yu Linwei.

  Shangkui took two hundred Yulinwei out of the city on horseback and headed straight for Qishan.

  Xiao Xixi was uncomfortable because of the aftereffects of empathy. She leaned on the prince and fell asleep involuntarily.

  Dong Mingchun didn't understand why the prince would let people go to Qishan. He didn't dare to ask anything, so he could only kneel and sit quietly in the flower hall.

  The flower hall was silent for a while.

  About two hours have passed.

  Shangkui returned with Yulinwei.

  He strode into the flower hall and knelt on one knee.

   "Return to Your Highness, the general will lead people to search all the villages at the foot of Qishan Mountain, but no Dushengjiao was found."
