Spoiled Wife

By the time King Xian learned that the princess had disappeared, all the joy he had felt from his victory had completely vanished. He felt as if he had fallen into a cave of ice.    

    

They hurriedly returned to the mansion. When Zi Zhu and the others saw him return, they immediately knelt in the courtyard with anxious expressions on their faces. The wangfei was still pregnant.    

    

"Who first discovered that the princess had disappeared?" King Xian asked in a cold voice.    

    

"Yes, servant." Zi Li cried as she replied, "Originally, Zi Zhu, Lian Fu and Imperial Physician Wang were inside accompanying Princess Hua-jie to treat her body. This servant will go prepare some food, and when I returned, I found that all three of them had fainted on the ground."    

    

King Xian turned to look at the three men. "Tell me about the situation."    

    

"Your servant will accompany your servant to wait for Imperial Physician Wang to take a look at your pulse. When you saw a black-clothed person come in, you didn't even wait for your servant to cry out before you suddenly felt the pain in the back of your head and lost consciousness. It was Zi Li who had gone through great difficulty to wake your servant up."    

    

Zi Li nodded her head to indicate that she was the same, "This servant nearly fell all together."    

    

Imperial Physician Wang trembled and was unable to speak. However, he nodded at their words, indicating that it was a battle of attrition.    

    

The people kneeling on the ground felt that they could lose their lives at any moment. Only when the prince coldly spoke did he say, "It's best if you don't let this prince know what you're up to, otherwise ?" Before he could finish his words, a cold chill went down the spine of those who saw it.    

    

The Violet Bamboo Shoot let out a long breath. At this moment, it felt as if its back was already wet and all the strength in its body had been sucked out.    

    

However, he still thought of the wangfei. "My prince, you have to hurry and rescue my wangfei. She's still pregnant with my little mistress."    

    

Wang Ma at the side cried until her eyes were red and swollen. When she heard this, she finally stopped crying with great difficulty. Her heart ached, but she found that she was powerless. At this moment, she was even more worried.    

    

Unable to find any clues, King Duanren immediately gathered his guards. The sight of the guards in charge of protecting the wangfei's life was displeasing to him. "Tell me about the situation. What happened at that time?" "Why would they kidnap an imperial concubine right in front of your eyes?"    

    

"Subordinate has been entangled and cannot escape. They have come prepared and are extremely familiar with the palace guards and its topography." Feng Kang replied.    

    

"You mean the Prince's Mansion has a spy?" King Xian narrowed his eyes and looked at him.    

    

"This subordinate must have leaked the news about the situation in the manor, and this person knows a lot about the wangfei's situation." After he finished speaking, he looked towards the personal maidservants and mama of the consort. In a situation where he did not know the truth and everyone was suspicious, he would not let go of any possibility.    

    

King Xian nodded. "Imprison them temporarily and send people to seal off the city gates immediately. Search the entire city and don't let a single corner slip by. This King has to ensure the safety of the wangfei as soon as possible."    

    

"This subordinate has received his orders and has immediately sealed off the news. He has also sent people to guard the city gate, and if any suspicious characters are found, they will be brought back to the manor for interrogation." Feng Kang replied seriously, this was his dereliction of duty, no matter what it was that had caused the wangfei to be in danger in front of him, it was his own dereliction of duty. At this time, he could only bring the wangfei back safely as soon as possible, and then, he would want to take the blame himself.    

    

King Xian nodded, neither happy nor angry. He glanced coldly at the servants in the courtyard and said, "This prince doesn't wish to hear any news regarding the wangfei's accident. It's announced that she's going to have a baby in the mansion, and no visitors are coming."    

    

These people were scared to death, and naturally did not dare to refute the prince's words, so they all nodded in agreement.    

    

Only after returning to his room did he finally relax his tightly gripped hands. He had been trying his best to suppress his violent nature, otherwise, he wasn't sure if he would have tried to kill everyone here.    

    

Those were all maids of the wangfei. He naturally saw in his eyes what the wangfei usually did to them. If he killed them, the wangfei would be unhappy.    

    

He closed his eyes tiredly. He, who had never believed in ghosts and gods, prayed devoutly that his wangfei would be safe, even if he had to pay any price.    

    

Only the heavens knew that when he heard that the wangfei had disappeared, his entire body had turned ice-cold, and he could barely stand. Now, he was sitting on the soft couch, feeling that he had lost all his strength.    

    

But when he thought about how the wangfei was still waiting for him to rescue her, he knew he couldn't fall down. He had to find her as soon as possible.    

    

When Shen Qi woke up, she found herself in a strange place and realized what had happened. Hearing movements from outside, a servant girl around fifteen to sixteen years old dressed in light green clothes walked in, smiling when she saw him, "Esteemed wangfei, you're awake? "Is there anything I can help you with?"    

    

Shen Qi looked at her, and then carefully inspected the room she was in, and realised that she had been extremely attentive with the decorations.    

    

"What's your name? "Where is this place?" She smiled as she looked at the seemingly innocent young maid.    

    

The young maid smiled and replied, "Your servant's name is Peach Blossom. This is a guest courtyard. Is Consort Wang hungry?"    

    

Shen Qi knew that she wouldn't be able to get anything out of her, and would rather wait and see, than to waste time. However, she had already reminded him that she was a little hungry, and there was still one more in her stomach, so she couldn't be wronged.    

    

Thus, she smiled and nodded her head. The young maid smiled as she responded and turned around, instructing them to set the table.    

    

With the combination of meat and vegetables, the nutrition was very balanced. Shen Qi was not unreasonable, this treatment was definitely not asking for her life. At least for the time being, there was no need to make things difficult for herself.    

    

She sat down and calmly started eating without the slightest appetite. She finished all the dishes on the table, then she rinsed her mouth and picked up the teacup.    

    

Peach Blossom only looked at her in astonishment before ignoring her and giving orders to pack up before turning around to leave.    

    

No one told her anything else, but after a good meal, Shen Qi remained calm on the surface. She believed that the Prince would not give up on her, and that what she needed to do was to protect herself, and at that time, don't drag him down. Of course, she had to think of a way to save herself, and find the best opportunity.    

    

However, she sighed as she looked down at her stomach. Even if there was a chance for her to escape, she probably wouldn't be able to.    

    

During these two days, no matter how Shen Qi tried to find out who she was, Peach Blossom would always change the topic with a smile on her face. As a result, she was unable to find any clues regarding her, and even up until now, she had never seen who the person who kidnapped her was.    

    

Today, when she was having tea with a snack as usual, a young man came in. He was dressed in luxurious robes and had a feminine appearance despite his feminine looks. He came in and sat across from her.    

    

Shen Qi looked at him and concentrated on drinking her tea. This must be the person who kidnapped her, right? Seeing the aura around him and his disguise, Shen Qi had quickly locked onto a person. The Duke had previously said that she had seen Mo Jingyu in the city, and if she was not mistaken, it should be him.    

    

Being in his hands was tricky to deal with. Shen Qi laughed bitterly in his heart, yet he maintained his composure on the surface, pretending to not know who he was.    

    

King Rui was the first to lose his cool. "Princess is really different from the others!" Mo Jingyu smiled, like a harmless big boy.    

    

Shen Qi put down the teacup, and said slowly: "Sir, you are flattering me. I wonder what business do you have in inviting me here?"    

    

Mo Jingyu was even more curious about this woman, could it be that she really wasn't worried at all? If he hadn't personally witnessed it, he wouldn't have believed it. A girl who could do this kind of thing was either a fool or had a screw loose, so she shouldn't be too normal.    

    

However, the woman in front of him was neither stupid nor stupid. She was still able to maintain a calm demeanor in the enemy camp. When he thought about this person, Mo Jingyu's heart became inexplicably angry. No matter what he did, he would not be able to get rid of him.    

    

But seeing the woman waiting for his answer, he gave an evil smile. "Your esteemed self has already admired wangfei for a long time, so I specifically asked her to come over for a chat. Please forgive me if I'm unwell-received."    

    

Shen Qi raised her eyebrows, admiring her elegance? Even deceiving ghosts might not be effective, but she knew that it would be difficult for her to escape from his hands. This person's goal must be King Duanren, and she was the chess piece used to threaten the prince. Her goal was to lure out the prince's chess piece, so she was temporarily safe.    

    

It was because she had confirmed this point that she was so calm, she nodded towards Mo Jingyu, "Sure, there are still places that you can say she isn't considerate to do, I want to eat the elbow of the Drunken Sky Tower, the roasted chicken we drink in meditation, as well as the snacks of the Hundred Flowers Tower, and also want to eat the rose cake and the osmanthus cake."    

    

Mo Jingyu raised his eyebrows, "Is that all?"    

    

Shen Qi thought about it and nodded, "That's enough for now, I'm a bit hungry." She was indeed a little hungry, as pregnant women were always hungry especially quickly.    

    

Mo Jingyu carefully observed her expression and realised that she was actually serious, and had once again refreshed his understanding. This woman was interesting, too interesting! It had been a long time since he had seen such an interesting person, so he smiled and nodded, "Alright, I'll go tell them to hurry up."    

    

Shen Qi was still waiting at the end, "Thank you, thank you!"    

    

He gave her another deep look, then turned around and left. When he came out and saw the guard whose mouth was still twitching, he felt that he was still normal. The abnormal one must be the one inside.    

    

In order to prevent others from finding out his identity, he was addressed as "young master" and "young master" in the outside world. There would be no such words as "prince".    

    

Hearing her question, Mo Jingyu glanced at the guard, "What about her? Didn't you hear that it had to be faster? Why aren't you buying it yet? " After saying that, he looked at his subordinate as if he was looking at an idiot. Why was he so stupid! Then he walked away.    

    

"Yes, your subordinate will go immediately." The guard could not help but worry for his mistress's back. The one inside was abnormal, but why was his master acting abnormal now?    

    

However, when he thought of his master's orders, he still resigned himself to his fate and went to the restaurant to buy food. How is this a hostage? This is clearly inviting a Buddha back. There are really too many demands!
