Chapter 188 Accident
Chapter 188 Accident
The wife of Xiangyang Marquis was stunned at first, but when she realized what was happening, she became furious, "It turned out that the wicked Gu Ping took Xiaobao away?
My daughter has divorced him, what on earth does he want to do by taking the child away without saying a word?
No, my grandson has nothing to do with him anymore, I have to go and bring Xiaobao back."
The old lady of Xiangyang Hou scolded her ex-son-in-law, stood up angrily and was about to look for her grandson, but she fell down as soon as she stood up.
"Be careful, old lady." Nanny Zhu didn't expect the old lady to faint suddenly, and she was almost knocked down in panic.
Fortunately, Xie Lan was quick to help and prevent Madam Wen from falling to the ground.
Seeing that Madam Zhu looked terrified, Xie Lan could only comfort her, "Don't worry, the old lady fainted because she was so angry."
As Xie Lan spoke, he pinched Madam Wen’s philtrum.
Soon the old lady woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, the old lady ignored her physical discomfort and struggled to find her grandson.
Xie Lan sighed, "Old Madam, I know you are anxious. But let me be frank. You are old now, and it is not good for you to be stimulated again."
The old lady sighed, "I know, but I'm really worried about Xiaobao. After my daughter divorced Gu Ping, he took that bitch Qin Wanyue back as his concubine.
"If Xiaobao falls into the hands of that bad couple, I don't know what will happen to him. I have to go and bring him back quickly, otherwise I will be worried."
"Forget it, I'll go with you." Xie Lan persuaded her for a while, but saw that Madam Wen still insisted on going.
For the sake of the 12,000 taels of divination money, she decided to help her again, so as to avoid being angered to death by the Prince of Yongding.
When Mrs. Wen heard that Xie Lan was going to accompany her, she was overjoyed. "Great, great, I feel much more at ease with you here."
Then he instructed Nanny Zhu, "Miss Xie and I will go to the Yongding Marquis's Mansion first. You go find Yajing and tell her that Gu Ping took Xiaobao away. Ask her to come to the Yongding Marquis's Mansion as well."
Nanny Zhu agreed and was about to leave when she was stopped by Xie Lan.
Seeing Old Madam Wen looking at him in confusion, Xie Lan smiled and pointed at the carriage coming over from a distance, "Your daughter is here too. It seems that you and your daughter have the same idea."
The old lady looked carefully and found that it was indeed the carriage of her daughter Wen Yajing.
It seems that like her, she went to Xie Mansion but didn't find Xie Lan, so she came to the Royal Academy.
"Mom, why are you here?" As soon as the carriage stopped, Wen Yajing hurriedly prepared to go into the Royal Academy to find Xie Lan.
She was very surprised to see her mother, but she quickly realized, "Mom is here to see Miss Xie too?"
The old lady nodded and said, "Xiaobao has not been found yet. I can't sit still in the mansion, so I want to ask Miss Xie for help to see if she can figure out Xiaobao's whereabouts."
Her son was missing, and Wen Yajing was exhausted after searching for him for a day and a night.
Originally his eyes were dull, but now they were looking at Xie Lan with hope, "Have you figured it out? Where is Xiaobao? Is he still alive?"
"I figured it out. It was the Prince of Yongding who took your son away."
"What? It turned out that bastard Gu Ping took Xiaobao away? I'll go find him right now." Speaking of her ex-husband, Wen Yajing gritted her teeth in hatred. She didn't want to delay for a moment, so she hurriedly got on the carriage and rushed to the Yongding Earl's Mansion.
"Hey, wait a minute." Old Madam Wen didn't expect that her daughter was so anxious that she forgot to thank Xie Lan and left.
He said apologetically, "Ya Jing was worried about Xiao Bao and was impolite. I hope you won't blame me."
"It's okay, I understand. My son is missing, so as a mother, I'm naturally concerned about his safety, so I don't care about so many other things."
Seeing Xie Lan being so reasonable, Old Lady Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Xie Lan knew that the old lady was worried about her daughter and grandson, so she didn't say anything more and told Tiechui to drive to the Yongding Marquis's Mansion.
Wen was so eager to find her son that her carriage disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When Xie Lan and Madam Wen found the Yongding Marquis's Mansion, they were stopped by the doorman.
"Madam Wen, please don't embarrass me. I can't let you in without a visiting card. Besides, our uncle and his wife are not in the mansion. Even if you go in, there is no master in our mansion to entertain you.
We will invite you to visit us another day when our uncle and his wife come back. Now, please go back."
Old Madam Wen looked unhappy. When Wen Yajing married Gu Ping, the Marquis of Xiangyang and the Earl of Yongding became relatives, and the relationship between the two houses was very good. Every time she came to the Earl's house, the doorman would try his best to please her.
Now that her daughter and Gu Ping have divorced, even the doorman doesn't take her seriously.
"I'm not looking for your uncle and his wife. I'm looking for my daughter and grandson."
"Looking for your daughter and grandson?" The concierge smiled wryly, "Madam, you've come to the wrong place, haven't you?
Have you forgotten that your daughter has long been divorced from our prince? She and her son are not in our mansion now. If you want to find someone, then look somewhere else."
Old Madam Wen was already annoyed that Gu Ping favored his concubine over his wife, and she also had no good feelings towards the people in the Bo Mansion.
"How dare you, a servant, stop me. Don't think I don't know that Gu Ping secretly took my grandson away.
If you know what's best for you, let me in, or I'll make you pay."
"I've already said that your daughter and grandson are not in our uncle's house. The old lady insisted on asking our prince for them. Is she trying to bully our uncle's house?
In this case, I apologize for the offense."
The Xiangyang Marquis's Mansion was more powerful than the Yongding Marquis's Mansion, and the gatekeeper did not want to offend Old Madam Wen. But their prince had given him an order that if anyone from the Marquis's Mansion came to look for the Wen family, he must stop them.
Seeing that Madam Wen was about to force her way in, she immediately called a few guards and said, "Drive them out."
The Marquis of Xiangyang was the Minister of Personnel. Madam Wen was always respected wherever she went, and she had never been driven away so rudely.
I was so angry, but there was nothing I could do.
Because Xiaobao was missing, everyone in the Hou family was searching all over Kyoto. She came to find Xie Lan, bringing only Nanny Zhu and the coachman.
Now besides her, there are only Xie Lan and the maid, and they are unable to deal with these guards.
Madam Wen was getting anxious, but Xie Lan calmly ordered Tiechui, "Stop them."
Last time, Xie Lan encountered a frightened horse at the Jiukong Bridge and nearly fell off the bridge and drowned. Afterwards, the person behind the attack was never found.
Tiechui always remembered this incident, and suspected that it was the Prince of Yongding who wanted to kill his own daughter, and he was already angry.
Seeing that the guards were about to drive them away, he knocked them out without mercy.
Madam Wen breathed a sigh of relief and was about to walk towards the Chuihua Gate, but suddenly a dozen guards armed with swords rushed out from inside.
"Is Gu Ping crazy? He stole my grandson and now wants to kill me too?"
Xie Lan was also a little surprised, but Tiechui's face changed when he saw those people, "Girl, they are not guards, they are desperate criminals!"
