Chapter 79: ransom

   Chapter 79 Ransom

  It was getting late, Yang Zhe and several people lived in a guest house, and they were getting together to drink tea and chat.

  The arrival of Mrs. Wuninghou surprised several people.

   "You are Mr. Han, right?" Mrs. Wuning Hou glanced at her, and her eyes fell on Han Baocheng.

  Han Baocheng made a salute: "Hello Madam Hou, call Xiaozibaocheng yes."

   Mrs. Wuning Hou didn't care about being polite and asked directly, "Did you meet Weier in Fenglin today?"

   This question made several people stunned for a moment, and Han Baocheng said, "I met Miss Tang Er, we said a few words and left."

   "Weier's maid said that Wei'er was heading in the direction you left, did you meet again later?"

   Several people looked at each other and realized that something had happened to Tang Wei.

   This made Han Baocheng's answer more cautious: "No, we will leave Fenglin soon."

   Mrs. Wuning Hou stared at Han Baocheng closely, unable to tell the truth from his expression, she said solemnly: "Weier is gone."

   gone?

   Although he had a hunch, this sentence still surprised several people.

   "It's so late, and Wei Er hasn't been found yet. I'd like to trouble you to go to Fenglin and point out the way to leave." Mrs. Wu Ninghou said it politely, but her tone could not refuse.

   Several people agreed.

   It was a little cold at night, the vegetation was damp, and the comfort of the day was lost.

   There are many monks in the Fenglin area looking for people with lanterns.

   A few people walked along the road they left, but the servants and monks from the Hou residence still failed to find anyone.

   Many overnight pilgrims noticed the unusual outside, including King Wei who came to offer incense on a whim.

   "Go and ask what's going on outside."

   The servant who got the order went out for a circle and brought the news back.

   "Report to the lord, saying that the second girl from the Marquis of Wuning's mansion disappeared in Fenglin."

  Although Mrs. Wuning Hou told the monks to keep quiet, the monks would not conceal any inquiries from King Wei's people.

   "Marquis of Wuning?" King Wei came to be interested.

  The second girl of the Marquis of Wuning is the sister of the Crown Princess, but she actually disappeared in Qinglu Temple?

   had nothing to do, so King Wei decided to go out and watch the fun.

   The servants were a little worried about the safety of King Wei: "My lord, I heard that the maid of the second lady of Tang died in the woods-"

   King Wei smiled: "There are so many people, what are you afraid of?"

   The servants dare not talk more.

   King Wei walked out slowly.

   Of course, due to his overly large body, he couldn't get up fast if he wanted to.

   The most lively area at this time is the guest room.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou couldn't wait for the good news of her daughter, so she held on to Yang Zhe and the others and sister Lin Hao.

   "The last thing the little girl saw was you. Now that she is not alive or dead or dead, please explain where she is going."

  Lin asked, "Has Madam Hou reported to the office?"

   Mrs. Wu Ninghou put on a frosty face and looked at Lin Shi coldly.

  Daughter went missing. From the very beginning, he ordered the servants of the mansion to look for it, to tell the monks in the temple, and then to ask the sons of the Shangshu mansion. Step by step, he lost his confidence.

   Lin sneered: "I advise Mrs. Hou to report to the official earlier. The government thinks that anyone who is suspected will naturally investigate, instead of holding people now and making them unable to sleep."

   Mrs. Wuning Hou's anger surged: "Lin Wanqing, were you still able to run wild when you were young? Let me tell you, if Weier can't be found, the people in this temple will not be able to get rid of it!"

   At that time, Lin Wanqing was the daughter of the prince of the state. She had no choice but to rip off her hair. Now that the feng shui turns, she, the prince and mother-in-law, can't help a poor house without father, husband and son?

   "Really?" A lazy voice came.

  Everyone heard the news and looked around and saw a ball.

   "I have seen the prince." Everyone saluted.

  The King of Wei slowly moved over and looked at Mrs. Wuning Hou: "Mrs. Hou means that we can't leave if we can't find our daughter in one day?"

   "Your Majesty is there?" Mrs. Wuning Hou was a little surprised.

  Because of the eldest daughter's arrogance, Mrs. Wuninghou inevitably has a high-level mentality when dealing with people, but these people do not include the King of Wei.

  Who made the emperor only have two sons, the prince and the king of Wei.

  The King of Wei said lukewarmly, "If I knew earlier that I would come to incense, I would not be allowed to leave. This king would not dare to be here."

   Mrs. Wuning Hou's face was a little ugly: "My lord misunderstood, I didn't mean that."

   King Wei glanced at Lin's: "This king thinks that this lady is right. It's time to find someone. It's time to report to the official. It's time to rest. There's no need to spend so much time. What does Madam Hou think?"

   Mrs. Wuning Hou forced a smile: "Your Highness is right."

   "Is there enough people to find a girl, do you want me to borrow some people?"

   "Thank you for your kindness, Lord, no need, many monks in the temple are looking for it."

   "It's hard to find the pitch-dark surroundings. Maybe you'll find it in daylight. Mrs. Hou should report to the officer early."

   King Wei didn't want to talk to Mrs. Wuning Hou any more, so he swept the people present with his hands behind his back, and walked towards Yang Zhe and the others.

   "You are the champion of Yang, right?"

  Yang Zhe handed over: "The student is exactly."

   King Wei squeezed out a friendly smile: "This king has an impression of you."

   "Thank you, Your Highness, for your love." Yang Zhe said neither humble nor arrogant.

   King Wei looked at Han Baocheng and the others again, and said with a smile, "It's a rare encounter, let's have a cup of tea with this king."

   Several people sighed in relief.

   Accompanying King Wei to drink tea is much better than accompanying the people of the Marquis of Wuning to look for people at night, and to bear the suspicion of Mrs. Marquis Wuning.

  With King Wei's words, Mrs. Wuninghou couldn't hold her back any longer. She sent people back to the city overnight to report to the officials, but the city gates were already closed, and she wanted to wait for the officials to arrive at least after dawn.

   "Madam, go back to your room to rest first." The maid advised.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou was pampered, and although she was worried about her daughter, she couldn't bear standing outside all this time, so she nodded.

  The maid supported Mrs. Wu Ninghou to the guest room, and was about to push the door when she walked to the door, when she suddenly found a letter tucked in the crack of the door.

   "Madam, look!" The maid handed the letter to Madam Wuninghou.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou took it over and opened it, and quickly scanned it with the orange light from the lantern, and the hand holding the letter trembled.

   After a while, Mrs. Wuninghou shouted, "Someone, come here!"

   After a short while, the deacon and monk hurried over.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou threw the letter over and said sharply, "The person who kidnapped my daughter must be someone who is familiar with the terrain here!"

  The deacon monk read the letter hastily.

   The letter asked Mrs. Wuninghou to prepare one thousand taels of silver and put them under a pine tree with blue cloth strips at the entrance of the valley near Fenglin. Only one maid was allowed to pass by with a silver ticket, and when she got to the pine tree, she would learn about Tang Wei's whereabouts.

   "Ma'am, there are warrior monks in the temple, you can let them go and take a look."

   "No!" Mrs. Wuning Hou firmly opposed, "The letter said that if anyone else is found, my daughter will be like that maid."

   is only one thousand taels of silver, which is nothing compared to the safety of his daughter.
