C74 (2/2)

”Return... ”Reporting to the empress dowager.” The older man said with a shudder, ”Morning...” Early... In the morning, Aunt Tian... Yes... Yes... ”Take Ah Ge out of the palace …” As he spoke, he was already sweating profusely! Rong'er recognized this eunuch as Eunuch Li Hu, a person who was normally very amiable, but the Aunt Tian he was referring to was the wet nurse of Cha Yin, which was what the people in the palace called her.

”What time?” Why didn't you stop them? Which way did you go? ” the empress dowager asked repeatedly.

Li Hu didn't dare to raise his head. He lowered his head and continued to stutter, ”Return …” Reply to the empress dowager … Now … Today... When the time came, Tian... So Aunt Tian brought Brother A to get out... ”Going out …”

”Stop making noise, continue!” When the empress dowager heard him stammer, she grew annoyed and shouted at him.

”Yes …” Li Hu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and composed himself. His voice was still trembling as he said, ”Aunt Tian only arrived this morning and brought Ah'ge out of the palace. She said that the empress dowager had ordered to see Ah'ge.

”Nonsense, stupid slave. Even if I missed Brother, I wouldn't have met you so early. Don't you have any brains? Let her go out? ” The empress dowager was angry.

”Yes …” This... Aunt Tian had been in the palace for so long, so she was always with Brother A'ge the moment he was born. The servants were all very familiar with her, and usually, she got along well with the servants. Thus, the servants did not pay too much attention and let her go. ”

”Hmph, stupid slave, what is your brain used for? I told you to watch the door, but you still dared to let them out? Men, lock these servants up. the empress dowager shouted.

”The empress dowager, please spare my life. This servant knows his wrongs.” A few of the eunuchs were screaming for mercy, but they were still dragged out. At this moment, Cao Zhong walked in, ”Old Ancestor.” Cao Zhong said.

”How was the investigation?” The empress dowager looked at him.

”Reporting to the Old Ancestor, just now this servant asked the guards what kind of people went in and out in the morning. As the city gates were opened, no one entered the palace except for Li Siyi, who was delivering rotten water to the palace.

”Yes.” The empress dowager nodded. ”Then the prince should still be in the palace. Cao Zhong, send a few trusted aides to find him in the palace with absolute secrecy. They cannot disturb anyone, much less cause any disturbance.”

”Your servant commands.” Cao Zhong was about to head down when an eunuch suddenly came in to report. ”Reporting to the empress dowager, Auntie Tian has returned.”

”What?” Aunt Tian is back? Carrying a prince? ” When the empress dowager heard Aunt Tian's return, her heart brightened.

”I can't see the prince in her arms. She's the only one there.” the eunuch replied.

”Well, bring her.” The empress dowager ordered.

Rong'er was also very nervous at this moment. To be honest, she and the empress usually treated the wet nurse rather well. Today, both the wet nurse and Chatterbox had disappeared. She really couldn't figure out the reason.

Aunt Tian entered the Eastern Warm Pavilion and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the empress dowager, empress and Rong'er. This servant has come back to accept his death, this servant will not let down the masters. ”

”This... Aunt Tian, what exactly is going on? Rong'er anxiously asked.

”Young Master Rong, Young Empress, this servant has let you down.” Aunt Tian looked up. Her forehead had been knocked so hard that it had turned a deep blue. There were still a few traces of blood on it. It was obvious how much force she had used.

”Speak, Prince, where did you go? ”Where is it now?” The empress dowager asked in a low voice when she saw Aunt Tian act this way.

”Brother was carried away by a servant. He is no longer in the palace. If we were to go further, he might have already left the capital.” Aunt Tian lowered her head as she spoke, tears falling from her eyes.

When Rong'er heard this, he immediately froze on the spot. All the anxiety he had accumulated turned into grief. Was Cha Yin not in the palace? Tears welled up in his eyes.
