Chapter 460 - 460 Xiaoling Missing

460 Xiaoling Missing

However, at this point, he could only blame himself for losing his sense of propriety. His master was weak, so he thought that he could bully his master.

In the past, he had slandered his master behind her back. Now that he was being taught a lesson, he was reaping the consequences of his own actions.

Zhou Pingan watched calmly as the old butler left. She closed her eyes and sighed. She laughed at herself. If not for the fact that she had no other choice, who would have been able to endure for so many years?

Fortunately, the dark days finally came to an end.

After Su Xiaolu returned home, she took the stone mortar and began to grind the medicine. She had to make a lot of medicine for Princess Pingan and her daughter.

It was not difficult to perform the surgery. Zhou Pingan also needed to apply medicine for her subsequent recovery.

“Xiaolu, do you need Father’s help?”

Su Sanlang came over to ask. Everyone in the family had gone out, but he was free.

He was bored and his heart was empty.

Su Xiaolu nodded and found a pair of scissors for Su Sanlang. “Father, help me cut these.”

“Okay.”

Su Sanlang was very happy. He took the scissors and helped cut them.

When Madam Zhao hurriedly returned, the father and daughter were still chatting.

“Sanlang, Sanlang…”

Madam Zhao’s shouts were filled with panic.

When Su Sanlang heard this, he immediately stood up and walked out. Su Xiaolu stopped and followed him out.

Madam Zhao held back her tears until she threw herself into Su Sanlang’s arms. Only then did she break down and cry. She choked and said, “Sanlang, Xiaoling is missing…”

“Darling, don’t be anxious. What’s going on? How did Xiaoling go missing?”

Su Sanlang panicked too, but he calmed down and asked about it.

“We went to buy groceries. A group of people rushed out of nowhere and fought over something. Boohoo… They separated us. When they disappeared, my daughter was gone too. I couldn’t find her. I didn’t know what to do… Boohoo.”

Madam Zhao’s tears fell like rain as she explained.

Su Sanlang frowned. “Who—who could this be?”

Su Sanlang panicked. He did not know who would harm Su Xiaoling.

Su Xiaolu frowned and said calmly, “Father, mother, don’t be anxious. No matter who captured Sister, they have to have an intention. Sister is safe for the time being. Don’t be anxious. Go find Great-grandfather and ask him to help investigate. I’ll find someone to help.”

Su Xiaolu quickly made arrangements to calm Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao down.

She did not tell Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao about the worst situation, because it was useless to tell them. Instead, it would increase the burden in their hearts.

“Alright, we’ll go over now.”

Su Sanlang nodded solemnly.

Su Xiaolu asked again, “Mother, which street did you get separated from?”

Madam Zhao held back her tears and replied, “West Gate Street.”

“Alright, let’s not delay any longer. I’ll go over first.”

Madam Zhao had returned in a hurry, she might be able to find some clues if she went over now.

Su Xiaolu quickly went out.

There were still many pedestrians in the market on West Gate Street. Su Xiaolu looked around but could not find any useful information. She had no choice but to give up here and go to the Wisdom King’s Mansion.

She did not expect to see Zhou Zhi so often. She had just asked him for help last night, and now she was asking him for help again.

When Zhou Zhi saw Su Xiaolu, he asked carefully before she could speak, “Xiaolu, what happened?”

Su Xiaolu did not hesitate and told him about Su Xiaoling’s disappearance.

She thought it might be the empress, because the empress was the most suspicious.

Zhou Zhi immediately understood Su Xiaolu’s thoughts. After Su Xiaolu finished speaking, he said gently, “Xiaolu, wait for me first. I’ll go to the palace.”

“Whether it’s true or not, I’ll know after a test. I’ll send someone to investigate the place where she disappeared. Don’t worry, Xiaoling will be fine.”

Zhou Zhi knew that comforting words were useless, but he still comforted Su Xiaolu.

He could not explain that strange feeling. Some people made him happy just by looking at them.

He didn’t care if it was because of envy or Zhou Heng at the beginning. He only knew that now, he didn’t want Su Xiaolu to be sad.

“Thank you.”

Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi. Many words ended with these two words.

Her grat.i.tude to Zhou Zhi would turn into her doing her best to protect his life to repay his kindness in the future.

Zhou Zhi left the residence very quickly.

Jin Liu and the others that Su Xiaolu knew in the residence also went out.

Su Xiaolu was not idle either. She followed Jin Liu out to investigate.

They walked in silence.

When they arrived at West Gate Street, the few of them split up and checked every small street.

Two hours pa.s.sed quickly. Qi Xingfeng and Qi Xingzhi also came with the soldiers from the general’s residence.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao had already returned home. They had to wait for news at home. They did not know when Su Chong and Su Hua would return home.

After many searches, they finally found a handkerchief with knockout drops far away from West Gate Street.

The capital was so big. Without any clues or a motive, it was really difficult to find someone.

“Miss Su, Master should have returned to the residence. Perhaps he can bring some news.”

Jin Liu spoke.

Qi Xingfeng and Qi Xingzhi also looked worried.

Father Qi, Mother Qi, and General Qi had gone out today, so they didn’t know the news.

After returning to the Wisdom King’s Mansion together, Zhou Zhi happened to return as well. His face was a little pale.

Without needing Su Xiaolu to ask, he said, “It’s not the empress, but it’s related to her. It should be premeditated by the Wei family. I’ve already gotten someone to investigate the Wei family’s actions. The news will come soon.”

After saying that, his breathing was a little weak.

Su Xiaolu took out a medicine bottle, poured out two pills, and gave them to Zhou Zhi. “Your breathing is chaotic. Calm down first. There’s no hurry.”

Su Xiaolu did not know why Zhou Zhi was so good to her. It was a fact that she had accepted Zhou Zhi’s kindness.

Zhou Zhi’s health wasn’t good to begin with and she wasn’t a heartless person.

Zhou Zhi’s expression was gentle. After taking the pills, a clear and comfortable feeling spread in his chest, dispelling the suffocation in his chest and making his breathing smooth.

“Wisdom King, forgive me for being blunt. Since we know that it has something to do with the Wei family, it’s not good for Xiaoling’s safety to wait like this. You’ve fought with the Wei family for many years, so you should know the Wei family’s weakness.”

Qi Xingzhi said.

Qi Xingfeng was red with anxiety. “Yes.”

Zhou Zhi looked at Qi Xingzhi and replied, “Young Master Qi, if you were the Wei family, what would you do now?”

Qi Xingzhi pursed his lips and remained silent. If he was from the Wei family, he wouldn’t be able to hide what he had done. It was only a matter of time before he was found out. However, on the surface, he definitely couldn’t have any evidence against him. At the same time, he had to make his family impregnable and not let his weakness be exposed.

All he could do now was wait.

“It’s not impossible to find her quicker. I’ve already informed the Crown Prince about this. Let’s see if there’s any news from him first.”

Zhou Zhi’s eyes darkened as he said calmly. Zhou Heng should know that something had happened to Su Xiaoling. He could only test some information from the empress to confirm if this matter was related to the empress. The only person who could really make the empress speak was Zhou Heng, but this was a bet and the chances of winning were only 10%.

At this moment, he really hoped that he would succeed.
