Chapter 1296: Chapter 1296: Sothing’s wrong with the Prince
“Damn it!”
Having no alternative, he could only haphazardly toss “Yin Baiqing” to the guard and then made his way to Princess Consort Yi’s courtyard.
“Prince, what shall we do?”
After hearing the situation, Princess Consort Yi almost fainted from anger.
She had never expected that Suyang would play such a shaless trick, catching them completely off guard.
“What else can we do? In a mont, we’ll have to send the person back to the National Teacher’s residence, even if it creates an uproar in the city, we must spread the news that the National Teacher was given a fake son.”
This disaster couldn’t possibly fall on their Prince Yi’s Mansion for no reason, could it?
“Send him back?”
Princess Consort Yi frowned.
“If he must be sent back, then we must hurry, otherwise, Suyang might turn the tables on us!”
She warned anxiously.
“Where is he, where is that person? Prince, have you had soone keep an eye on him?”
“This…”
Hearing Princess Consort Yi’s inquiry, Prince Yi was suddenly struck with panic.
In his rage against Suyang’s shaless behavior just now, he had forgotten to instruct the guard to keep a close watch on the man!
“Soone, co here!”
He quickly stood up and shouted towards the door.
“Prince, it’s not good.”
No sooner had he called for soone than a guard rushed in hastily, still shouting.
“What’s happened?” Princess Consort Yi had a bad feeling and asked.
“Prince, Princess Consort, the Fifth Young Master is missing. Just now, I took the Fifth Young Master to his courtyard, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone, no idea where he ran off to.”
“What?!”
Upon hearing this news, Prince Yi felt like he was about to explode.
Missing? He was gone so quickly – could Suyang… could Sui Zimo be plotting against him together?
“Did you search for him? Have you searched the entire mansion?”
“Reporting to the Prince, the guards are searching. I ca first to inform the Prince and Princess Consort,” the guard replied.
Ever since the Fifth Young Master disappeared, he had felt an ominous premonition. If he didn’t report back first, he was afraid that he might et a grislier end, so he hurried over imdiately.
“Then why aren’t you helping with the search?”
Prince Yi roared at the guard, who promptly hurried away.
“What ‘early’? He’s surely left Prince Yi’s Mansion by now.” Princess Consort Yi took a deep breath and spoke to Prince Yi.
Sui Zimo and Suyang, they had played a ruthless ga – not only had she lost Yin Baiqing, but she had also deeply offended the Emperor. How was she to explain this to her master?
“Suyang!”
Prince Yi’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared into the dim courtyard.
…
In the Imperial Study.
The Empress Dowager was still persuading the Emperor, making clear why the edict should not have been issued.
Having heard the Empress Dowager’s words, the Emperor broke out in a cold sweat.
“Soone, co, go to the National Teacher’s residence imdiately and retrieve the edict,” he commanded Eunuch Gui outside the door in a frantic voice.
“There’s no need.”
However, the Empress Dowager stopped him.
“I had already sent soone to intercept the edict; by now, it should have been retrieved.”
She had thought that since she sent soone so early to intercept the edict, it would surely be retrieved, but she had not anticipated any complications.
“Really?”
The Emperor cald down after hearing her words.
After letting out a sigh of relief, he sat down in his seat.
“Mother is truly wise; I am incomparable to you. If that decree had entered the National Teacher’s residence, the consequences would have been…”
