Chapter 251 Just in case 1
"Something happened to the young master!" When the maid saw Yongchang Hou stand up, she cried even harder.
"Let her go! Let her talk!" Yongchang Hou ordered his servants to let the maid go.
At this moment, he was still very anxious. The Yongchang Marquisate had few descendants, only two males, one was Li Yanzhi, who had already requested to be crowned as the Crown Prince, and the other was Li Yanhe, the youngest son who was only five years old. The rest were all daughters.
"What happened to the young master? Tell me in detail!" At this time, Yongchang Hou had already walked up to the maid.
"The young master is missing! I have searched everywhere I could, but I still can't find him." The maid cried and told the story of the young master's disappearance.
The guests in the room were in an uproar.
On a day like this, something like this actually happened. I really don't know what to say.
Especially the third lady of the Marquis' Mansion, Li Yanyan, her expression was extremely ugly.
Today was her coming-of-age party, a blessing her mother had begged for a long time. It should have been a glorious occasion, but unexpectedly, something went wrong at the end.
This is not a proud thing at all, this is clearly embarrassing.
When Marquis Yongchang heard that his youngest son was missing, he quickly ordered his men to go and look for him.
A five-year-old child should not be able to run far, and Marquis Yongchang even ordered people to seal off the entire mansion.
I can only say sorry to all the guests who have come to the banquet. Please don't move around for the time being until you find someone.
Everyone has children in their family. Although Yongchang Hou Fengfu's behavior was rude, everyone expressed their understanding.
Anyway, all we have to do is wait.
After giving their orders, Marquis Yongchang and his wife also left the main courtyard, leaving only the third young lady of the Marquis' Mansion left on the stage.
As soon as the host left, everyone started talking.
Say anything.
However, most of them revolve around the young master of the Marquis's Mansion.
I heard that this young master of the Marquis's mansion is very favored. In other families, the son is honored by the mother, but this young master's mother is honored by the son.
The young master's mother was originally just a lowly concubine, without even a title. It was only after she gave birth to the young master that she was given the privilege of being a concubine.
Moreover, after the birth of this young master, the Yongchang Marquis's mansion became better and better. It is said that a fortune teller once predicted his fortune and said that this child would be extremely noble.
As long as he is raised well, he will surely be the lucky star that can protect the Marquis' Mansion in the future.
Now that this lucky star is lost, no wonder Marquis Yongchang is so nervous.
"Sister-in-law, can we go back tonight?" Shan Xi felt that it might not be so easy to go out of the Marquis' Mansion today.
"Don't worry, I will." Song Qingci comforted Shan Xi.
After saying that, she glanced at Shan Yu and Shan Ruoyan, "If you are smart, you should stay here and not go anywhere at this time. In this situation, if you are left alone, it is hard to say what will happen next."
This is both a warning and an explanation.
Ma Mingzhu is a little scared now, "Could it be that someone is taking advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble?"
"That should be the case." Song Qingci's tone was calm, but she knew very well in her heart that someone was deliberately making trouble.
The disappearance of the young master was the first move, and what she is waiting for now is the second move.
Thinking of the way people in the backyard liked to drug people at any time, Song Qingci reached into his sleeves, covered his face with his sleeves, and took out a few detoxification pills from the space.
"Here, take this pill." Song Qingci gave the detoxification pills to Shan Xi, Shan Yu and Shan Ruoyan.
She looked at Ma Mingzhu who had been following them and handed one to her.
"Sister-in-law, what is this?" Shan Xi took the pill and swallowed it directly. After she finished eating, she remembered to ask.
"This is a detoxifying pill. Just in case." There were so many people around, Song Qingci could only keep his words short.
Someone was already coming towards where they were standing.
When Shan Yu heard that it was an antidote pill, she remembered the medicine she had fed Cheng Xiaodie at Cai Jin Pavilion, so she hardened her heart and swallowed the pill.
When Ma Mingzhu saw Shan Xi eat it without thinking, and heard that it was a detoxification pill, she thought about it and ate it as well.
Only Shan Ruoyan was extremely disdainful. What kind of antidote pills? This is the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion, not a dirty place, how could there be any poison?
However, she didn't dare show it in front of others.
She pretended to take medicine, but actually threw the pill away by hiding it with her sleeve.
She didn't dare put anything in her mouth. Who knew what it was? If there were any bad side effects, she would be at a disadvantage.
An hour passed in a flash, and the young master of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion was still not found. Yongchang Marquis's Mansion was still sealed off.
It was really inappropriate for so many people to stand in the main courtyard. The wife of the Marquis of Yongchang asked the maid to lead the guests to the guest courtyard.
At least let them sit down and rest.
Because the number of rooms in the guest house was limited, families who knew each other were arranged together, or single people were also put together.
Song Qingci and the others were naturally arranged to stay in a room with Ma Mingzhu, and a young lady named Wang was also arranged to stay in this room.
After all, they didn't get together for the purpose of greeting each other. Miss Wang simply greeted them briefly, then sat aside and stopped talking.
As time went by, the atmosphere in the room became more and more tense.
"Sister-in-law, has the young master not been found yet? It's almost dark." Shan Xi couldn't hold back any longer.
"I don't know. If no one has come to inform us, it probably hasn't been found yet."
Song Qingci had been wondering what the second move of the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion was, but judging from the current situation, it only restricted the freedom of the guests, and there were no other moves. This was a bit strange.
At this time, Shan Yu secretly moved to Song Qingci's side and whispered to her.
"Um, sister-in-law, I need to go to the bathroom." Shan Yu didn't know whether she was nervous or she really couldn't hold it anymore, her stomach was really uncomfortable now.
"If you want to go, go ahead. I can't stop you." "This kind of thing can't be stopped just because you want to. "But don't forget what I said before, go quickly and come back quickly."
They had already taken the detoxification pills, so they should be safe. As long as they go back quickly, there won't be any problems.
"Okay, I understand." Shan Yu went out with Hong Yun like a frightened little rabbit.
"Sister-in-law, I want to go too." Seeing Shan Yu leave, Shan Ruoyan began to think about something.
The Yongchang Marquis Mansion is not a place she can come to whenever she wants. If she is trapped in this guest room, then her trip would be in vain.
"Go, go, go quickly, just in time to accompany Shan Yu."
