Xia Wangtian quickly received His Majesty's order, led troops to blockade the capital, and searched every household for the whereabouts of the prince.

As a result, the whole capital was in a state of panic, and everyone was in danger and panic. Many people didn't know what happened.

People from Wucheng Bingma Division didn't say anything about the prince being robbed, they only said that there were fugitives who escaped, and they were ordered to search for the fugitives.

The Xie family did not find anyone who leaked the news about the prince going to Moon River to release the wishing lamp, so it was the people in the palace who leaked the news about the prince.

In Nuo Da's palace, there must be subordinates placed by others.

Xiao Wenyu personally led people to review, not letting anyone go.

The eunuchs and maids were all terrified and terrified. Xiao Wenyu looked at the kneeling man and said in a deep voice, "I'll give you a chance to expose each other. If you find any useful information, I'll take it seriously." There is a reward."

In addition to the eunuchs serving beside him, the Grand Highness knelt down, as well as the attendants of the Prince and the Eldest Princess, as well as the attendants of the Queen's Palace.

Seeing Xiao Wenyu's gloomy and gloomy eyes, these people felt indescribably terrified. Some of them couldn't help but began to expose the people around them.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Qiu often takes things from the eunuchs in Concubine Nie's palace."

"Little Green is fooling around with an eunuch, and that eunuch often gives her things."

"Xiao Yun, who washes the house in Chaoyang Palace, often gives things to sister Hua Lian. One time, the servant heard Xiao Yun ask sister Hua Lian, when will the prince return to the palace?"

As soon as the servant girl finished speaking, Xiao Wenyu looked at her with eyes like sharp arrows, and she couldn't help shaking: "Your Majesty, what this servant girl said is true, I just heard it by chance."

As soon as the servant girl finished speaking, a servant girl moved out tremblingly: "Your Majesty, servant girl, servant girl, I didn't do anything."

Xiao Wenyu looked at the palace maid named Hua Lian with cold eyes and gloomy eyes: "Tell me, have you told the prince's maid named Xiaoyun every day, have you ever said that the prince will go out of the palace to make a wish in Yuehe About the lights?"

Hua Lian looked at the emperor's gloomy and bloodthirsty eyes, and was so frightened that he was half dead, subconsciously daring not to say that he had said this.

Xiao Wenyu said viciously: "If you dare to hide it, I will cut you into pieces."

How could Hua Lian dare to hide it, she said with a pale face: "She did ask the servant, but the servant said something casually, the servant doesn't know anything, Your Majesty."

Knowing that she was doomed to die, Hua Lian kowtowed.

Xiao Wenyu immediately ordered Zhou Youjin: "Go and capture Xiaoyun, the maid from Chaoyang Palace's washing room?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhou Youjin withdrew to arrest people.

Outside the hall, a eunuch came in to report: "Your Majesty, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Mr. Xie, please see Your Majesty."

"Let him in."

Xiao Wenyu wanted to know what was going on with Xie Wenyao, so he immediately ordered someone to bring Xie Wenyao in.

"I see Your Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu signaled him to get up, and Xie Wenyao reported the situation found at Dali Temple to Xiao Wenyu.

"That child is a child of an ordinary family in the city. Someone went to their house this afternoon, gave them clothes, shoes and socks, told them to wear them like this tonight, asked them to cooperate with them in doing things, and said that they would give them fifty taels Wenyin, the family doesn’t know anything.”

Xiao Wenyu pursed her lips tightly, thinking that the prince doesn't know what to do now? He was very worried.

Xie Wenyao naturally knew the torment in Xiao Wenyu's heart. That was his eldest son, the prince.

Can he feel better now?

Xie Wenyao looked at Xiao Wenyu and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, those people will definitely be of great use in taking the prince away, otherwise they wouldn't have spent so much time designing all this. If you want to kill the prince, you can do it in times of chaos. Kill the prince with one sword, not take the prince away."

"Their effort to take the prince away must be for other reasons, but this shows that the prince will be fine for the time being."

After hearing Xie Wenyao's words, Xiao Wenyu felt relieved.

Zhou Youjin quickly brought people in: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yun, who was in the laundry room, committed suicide in the room, and the servant led people to arrest all the laundry room people."

Xiao Wenyu and Xie Wenyao could tell immediately that Xiaoyun was murdered.

"Go and check the people who clean the laundry room. Whoever this little Yun has been in contact with in normal times, no matter who they are, they will be arrested and interrogated, and no clues will be missed."

"Yes, the slave will do it."

Xie Wenyao got up and said goodbye: "The minister is leaving the palace first. If there is any news from His Majesty, please send someone to Xie's house to say something."

Xiao Wenyu nodded, Xie Wenyao walked out of the hall, and when he reached the entrance of the hall, he stopped and looked back at Xiao Wenyu: "Your Majesty, father and mother love His Highness the Crown Prince very much. Such an accident happened to His Highness, which was not what they wanted. At this moment, they feel sad I'm afraid it's no less than His Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu knew the meaning of Xie Wenyao's words as soon as he heard it. He didn't want him to resent his parents.

Xiao Wenyu smiled wryly, is he so indiscriminate between right and wrong? He knew that his father and mother were not to blame for these things, who would have thought that the kidnapping of the prince would happen at the feet of the emperor, if he was to blame, he should also be to blame for not making good arrangements.

"Go back and tell your parents, I don't mean to blame them."

Xie Wenyao nodded and walked out.

He walked on the front foot, and the queen brought people over on the back foot.

"Your Majesty, how is it? Have you found Jing'er's whereabouts?"

Xiao Wenyu raised his hand and pinched the center of his eyebrows: "I haven't found it yet, I'm asking someone to check it."

Hearing Xiao Wenyu's words, Wang Mengyao couldn't help crying worriedly, while crying, she looked at Xiao Wenyu and begged, "Your Majesty, if there is no accident this time, can you let Jing'er stay by my concubine's side? Don't let him go to Ningzhou again?"

Xiao Wenyu turned around to look at Wang Mengyao in disbelief, and it took a long time before he slowly said: "As a prince, he will encounter many hardships in this life. Do you want him to stay in the palace all the time?"

Wang Mengyao cried and shook her head: "Your Majesty, the concubine can't control these things anymore, the concubine just doesn't want to go through this kind of thing again, you know, the concubine can't wait to take it on Jing'er's behalf."

Xiao Wenyu saw that she was so sad, so he finally didn't provoke her any more, and of course he didn't agree to let the prince go to Ningzhou in the future.

Zhou Youjin quickly found some useful information. The court lady named Xiaoyun often got close to an eunuch named Hefu. The two were originally from the same township. Later, they even had a counter meal when they entered the palace. These two people turned out to be pearls. The waiter in the princess palace.

"Your Majesty, they were originally eunuchs and maids serving in Princess Pearl's Palace."

"Go and arrest this He Fu for interrogation."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

As a result, Zhou Youjin took people to arrest He Fu, and He Fu also committed suicide in his own palace.

The clue is broken here, no matter Xiao Wenyu suspects Xiao Yue, Princess of the Pearl at this time.

Xiao Yue, Princess of the Pearl, has always been at odds with him, and has disliked him since he entered the palace, and later hated him because he drugged her.

Although they appear to be harmonious brothers and sisters, in fact they know each other, and the other hates themselves to the bone, wishing to kill themselves.

The reason why Xiao Wenyu assigned Xiao Yue to the second son of Jiang Cifu's family as his daughter-in-law was because the Supreme Emperor asked him to marry Princess Mingzhu, and he didn't want to see this woman in the palace, so Xiao Yue She pointed to Jiang Tao, the second son of Jiang Cifu, as his daughter-in-law.

Xiao Yue didn't object either. Seeing that she had a good attitude, Xiao Wenyu specially ordered the household department to build a princess mansion for her.

He thought that woman would live her life peacefully in the princess mansion, but he didn't expect that now she would be involved in the case of the prince being robbed.

Xiao Wenyu thought that his son was now in the hands of the other party, and couldn't sit still anymore, so he immediately led people out of the palace, ordered people to surround the princess mansion, and ordered people to search the princess mansion.
