Chapter 366 Let’s go find her
Chen Jingyuan followed behind Chen Qingfeng. The cool night breeze blew away the heat of the day, but it could not blow away the waves in his heart.
"Yuan'er, are you serious about what you just said? Xinyao and the young lady from the Gou family grew up together? Is she really a maid bought by the Gou family?" Chen Qingfeng suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at Chen Jingyuan, with a complicated light in his eyes.
Chen Jingyuan nodded slightly, the moonlight shining on his handsome face making him look particularly determined.
"Yes, Father, my sister told me in person that she grew up in the Gou Mansion and that she and Gou Chunmei were like sisters. But later, Gou Chunmei scratched her face and pushed her off a cliff."
Chen Qingfeng frowned, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked at the palace wall in the distance, as if he wanted to penetrate the thick bricks and stones and see some buried truth.
"My daughter can't be so vicious. If Gou Chunmei is not your sister, then tell me, do you think Xinyao..." He paused, his voice low and hoarse, "Could she be your real sister?"
"Your Majesty, in my heart, she is my biological sister!" Chen Jingyuan answered without hesitation.
Then he suddenly realized, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, "Father, are you saying...my sister might be the child born to our mother?"
"That's right." Chen Qingfeng nodded, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes. "When I first saw her, I felt strangely familiar. Now that I think about it carefully, her eyebrows and eyes are surprisingly similar to your mother's."
Chen Jingyuan's heart trembled, and Wang Xinyao's gentle smile emerged in his mind. He couldn't help but get excited: "No wonder I felt so close to you when I first saw you, sister, as if we had known each other for years!"
"Yes." Chen Qingfeng sighed softly, a hint of tenderness appearing in his eyes. "When your mother wakes up, we will set off to Li Country to find her."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jingyuan suddenly remembered something and frowned slightly, "But Father, my brother has returned to the Miao Kingdom. He had previously deceived you. Will something unexpected happen to him now?"
"Don't worry, I have already let General Liu supervise the country before we set off!" Chen Qingfeng's face suddenly turned cold, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "If Tao'er dares to act rashly, I will demote him to a commoner!"
At the same time, in Prince Yu’s mansion, the flickering candlelight cast a gloomy scene.
"Why has the number of monks provided decreased suddenly recently?" The red-robed Saint Son sat upright on a high seat, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingertips, his voice icy and piercing.
Zhao Yucheng knelt on the ground, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. "Sir, the people I sent out... are all missing."
"Oh?" The red-robed Saint raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "They are all at the Martial Emperor level. Ordinary people can't do anything to them. How could they disappear for no reason?"
"I have sent people to investigate this matter, but there are no results yet." Zhao Yucheng replied tremblingly, "There is only one thing..."
"What's the matter?" The red-robed Saint's eyes darkened, and the aura around him suddenly became sharp.
Zhao Yucheng swallowed hard, his voice barely audible: "Miss Gou...she's gone."
"What?!" The red-robed Saint suddenly stood up and waved his sleeves. A sharp gust of wind directly knocked Zhao Yucheng to the ground. "Waste! Didn't this Saint repeatedly tell you to send someone to keep a close eye on her?!"
Zhao Yucheng hurriedly got up, rested his forehead on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Son, calm down! The Crown Prince had imprisoned her before, and his subordinates were unable to get close to her. It was not until the Crown Prince left for the battle that her house arrest was lifted..."
"And then?" the red-robed Saint asked coldly.
"After the house arrest was lifted, Miss Gou returned to the Shangshu Mansion, but our people didn't see her come out..." Zhao Yucheng's voice became lower and lower, and he almost didn't dare to look up.
"Waste! A bunch of waste!" The red-robed Saint Son was furious and smashed the table beside him with one palm, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
Suddenly, he paused and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
A familiar wave of blood surged in his body, shocking him.
"Is it her... Is she here?" he murmured in a low voice, with ecstasy in his eyes.
Zhao Yucheng was confused and asked cautiously, "Son, what are you doing..."
The Red Saint suddenly came back to his senses and shouted, "Have any strangers appeared in the capital recently?"
Zhao Yucheng thought for a moment and replied, "I don't know exactly who it is, but I heard that the emperor received a distinguished guest today."
"Investigate immediately! Who did the Emperor of Xia meet?" A cold light flashed in the eyes of the red-robed Saint Son. "Also, send more people to find Gou Chunmei's whereabouts!"
"Yes! I'll do it right away!" Zhao Yucheng retreated quickly as if he had been pardoned.
The red-robed Saint stood alone in the hall, a sinister smile on his lips: "Wang Muyun, is that you? Hahahaha... Now, your daughter is my woman.
"Hahaha, do you like this gift from this Saint?" Black energy emanated from his entire body, and his aura was even stronger than before.
