Bing Ying said seriously: ”That's what I meant too! What happened to Third Sister? ”

Beitang Mengze said, ”She's missing!”

Bingying's heart sank, ”Could it be related to the First Prince's wedding?”

After she finished speaking, she swept her gaze over everyone's faces and saw that all of them had their heads lowered without saying a word. She knew that she had guessed correctly! Two nights ago, when the maidservant said that the third young miss had come to look for her in a flustered manner, suspicion arose in her heart.

She and Beitang Ling had a feud, so Beitang Ling probably wouldn't ask her for help unless she was desperate to get her hands on the Beitang Clan! Because of this, she had no choice but to seek help from someone who had a grudge with her. However, in the end, she left without saying anything!

Xiu'er was a child, and did not have the complicated thoughts of an adult. She was just a little worried for her family and said, ”Sister Four! Can you think of a way to save Third Sis? Second Uncle said that if Third Sister was not found, she would be executed by the Emperor! ”

Beitang Cheng nodded and said, ”I'm afraid it's not just her alone! This matter is enough to implicate our entire family! I'm afraid the Emperor has long been waiting for this opportunity to weaken our family's influence! ”

Beitang Mo sternly reprimanded: ”Second brother! You can't be disrespectful to the emperor! ”

Beitang Cheng had always admired his big brother, so he nodded and said, ”Even if the emperor doesn't want to exclude us! What about the other ministers in the court? His father and brother were both born into the military and had a upright and righteous temperament. They had already offended countless people in their daily lives! ”If our political enemies get a hold of this, I'm afraid …”

Beitang Mo said, ”Alright! Stop it! Now that everyone's burning with anxiety, there's no need for you to frighten them! Everyone knows what the consequences are! ”

Seeing that his father and second uncle still had the mood to argue, Beitang Menglong forced a smile and said: ”Ying'er! In your opinion, how should this matter be handled? ”

Bing Ying thought for a while and said, ”I'm afraid that …” ”It's hard to do!”

Beitang Mo said, ”Is it difficult? Or don't you want to? ”

Bing Ying's face darkened, ”Uncle, what do you mean?”

Beitang Mo's face was filled with anger as he said in a frustrated tone, ”That damned Ling'er is really disappointing. He actually ran away from home at such a crucial moment. Our Beitang Clan actually has a lot of people. However, this matter was too sensitive and could not be made public. He could not let others know that the third lady of the Beitang Clan had disappeared. You are the princess consort, how easy would it be for you to send someone to find someone? No one doubted anything! ”This matter is very difficult for us to handle, but for you, it's not that difficult. It only depends on whether or not you want to help …”

Bing Ying said, ”Of course I want to help! The reason why I said it's hard is not because I can't send people to look for Third Sister! But even if I find Third Sis, she won't come back with me! Since she took the initiative to leave home, how could she be so easily found? Even if they were to find her, would she willingly come back? ”

Bing Ying was upset. This old man Beitang Mo had always been a braggart and had always looked down on her as a fourth miss. Now that she was married, he did not treat her as his own family.

Bing Ying already didn't like him. Because he was an elder, she had always kept silent, but the words just now were too much!

What did he mean by not wanting to sincerely help?

He was clearly treating her as an outsider!

If it weren't for the fact that his daughter had caused him to lose her composure, Bing Ying wouldn't have let him have the time to act! Anyway, she didn't help for him! It's just for Little Xiu'er and grandpa.

Beitang Cheng stood out to smooth things over, ”Ying'er's words are very true! We did not expect that! ”

Beitang Menglong also said, ”That is indeed a problem! Even if we find Third Sister, what if she doesn't want to come back with us? ”

Beitang Mo said, ”If she doesn't come back, I'll chop her in half and pretend I never had a daughter!”

Beitang Mengze said coldly: ”Then can you force her to get married on a bridal sedan? Can you force her to get married?”

”This …” Beitang Mo was speechless.

He was originally a rough and boorish man, and did not care much about what others thought of him. However, now that he had cast his gaze towards Beitang Cheng, it was all up to him!

Beitang Cheng thought for a while, frowned, and said, ”This is indeed a difficult task! If we had to blame anyone, we can only blame ourselves for spoiling Ling'er too much, resulting in her unruly and headstrong temperament! He was such a big person, yet he acted recklessly and recklessly, disregarding the consequences! He had no sense of propriety! But now, there's no point in criticizing her anymore. Unless I can dispel the idea of her running away from the marriage, it's really not going to be easy! ”

Beitang Menglong thought quickly, looked at Bing Ying and said, ”Fourth sister. Your thoughts are the most meticulous. Do you have any good ideas? ”

Bing Ying said coldly, ”I don't really want to help. If there is a good way, of course I won't tell you. I'll make you guys anxious.”

Beitang Menglong gave a dry smile and said: ”Fourth sister, don't bother with father anymore. It's not like you don't know that he has a fiery temper. He spoke a bit brazenly, but without any ill intentions.”

Beitang Mengze said, ”My father said the wrong thing, I apologize! Sister Four, don't bother with such a big deal! His voice was cold and detached, but he was extremely manly, and his son apologized on behalf of his husband. ”

Beitang Menglong quickly said, ”That's right! Right now, it's time for our family members to unite and overcome their difficulties, so we don't need any internal strife! ”

Bing Ying was not a petty person and said, ”Forget it! Just pretend I didn't say anything. I will take Third Sister's matter to heart. ”I will send people to look for Third Sister. I will try my best not to arouse suspicion by keeping a low profile, but you all need to be prepared. If you find Third Sister, how to persuade her to change her mind is the most important!”

Beitang Cheng said, ”You're right! We never thought about what Ling Er really needed, or maybe that's why she ran away from the marriage! ”

Beitang Mengze said with some disdain: ”Isn't she just trying to be the empress? The First Prince has lost his power. If he doesn't become the crown prince, he will still be exiled, so of course she won't be resigned to it! ”

Beitang Ling's heart was proud and her sight was very high. She was born into an aristocratic family, and her name was famous even before she was twenty. Other than the throne of the empress, there was nothing else in this world that could move her heart!

Almost everyone in the Beitang Clan knew of her ambitions.

Beitang Mo said, ”This unfilial daughter! What's the point of being a queen? ”Although our Beitang Clan is not as wealthy as the Imperial Family, we can't live with wealth and wealth for our entire lives. Why fight for the title of Empress?”

Beitang Cheng said, ”Let's not talk about it now. Talk to his when you find her! Ying'er, I'll have to trouble you with this matter! ”
