Chapter 144: Where there's a will, there's a way

"Ah......h

"The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life, the little one knows that he is wrong, and asks the prince to spare his life." The few were frightened by the scene in front of them, and after coming back to their senses, they hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Get out of here."

"Yes, the prince will get out." Several people fled in fright.

"Slave and maid, thank you for saving your life."

"Get up, you come with me to the study."

"Yes, lord."

"August, why are you in this mansion, and where did Su Zhenzhen go?"

"Lord, you're finally back, princess, she's ......," August choked up and cried.

"Don't cry yet, tell this king the truth, what happened after this king left, and where did Su Zhenzhen go?"

"Lord, don't you know, not long after you went to Yangcheng, Mrs. Cheng and Mei Niang were going to the temple to pray for you, so the princess followed, and nothing happened when she went, but when she came back, she walked halfway through, and suddenly a group of bandits and bandits came out of nowhere, drove us out of the car, took away the money we carried, and plundered the princess, saying that you want the princess to be the lady of the village, lord, you hurry up and find the princess."

Wei Han clenched his fists tightly after hearing this, his brows furrowed, his Zhen Zhen still didn't know where he was, what kind of torture and abuse he was undergoing, when he thought of this, Wei Han was even more heartbroken.

"Mrs. Cheng, where did they send someone to find it? Hasn't there been any news during the time that Su Zhenzhen disappeared? Wei Han suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.

"What, the princess, they haven't looked for the princess at all, and it's been almost half a month since the princess disappeared, but Mrs. Cheng and Mei Niang have never sent someone out to find it, and the slaves and maids begged people everywhere to let them help find the princess, but, but the slaves and maids are useless, and the people up and down in this house refuse to help the slaves and maids, and the slaves and maids are almost desperate." August cried sadly.

"How dare they deceive the king." Wei Han said viciously.

"Lord, not only did they not look for the princess, but they also wanted to hide the princess's disappearance, the princess disappeared like this, no one in the house ever asked, as if they didn't know about it, just the day before you came back, the slave maid was locked up for some reason, and it didn't happen to meet tonight, the prince is afraid that the slave and maid have been exterminated." August cried out of grief.

"That'...... What about fornication? Is there some misunderstanding in this? Wei Han didn't want to ask, but he really wanted to prove that Su Zhenzhen didn't betray him.

"Fornication? What fornication? August asked with tears on her face and asked very suspiciously, Wei Han looked at her like she was not lying, which strengthened Wei Han's trust in Su Zhenzhen, Mrs. Cheng and Mei Niang were all lying to him and deliberately provoking his relationship with Su Zhenzhen.

"Could it be that Su Zhenzhen was framed, and some people in the house rumored that Su Zhenzhen was caught fornicating with a man."

"Lord, it's impossible, Lord, the princess is naturally loyal to you, and she must know your intentions to you, Lord, you have to believe the princess, the princess has never done anything to be sorry for you." August said excitedly when he heard this.

After a long time, Mrs. Cheng finally calmed down, clutched the table tightly and thought about countermeasures, this is the maid coming back.

"Princess, the slave and maid have already done what you said, and they have gone down." The maid said as she returned and picked up the debris on the ground.

"Go, send someone to find out where August is now." Mrs. Cheng narrowed her eyes and said maliciously.

"Yes, Princess."

"No, there is such a big thing, Xiangbi Mei Niang must not know yet, you can't just suffer from this concubine, this concubine wants to go to Mei Niang and discuss this matter well, so as not to blame the prince in the future, it is all the concubine alone." Mrs. Cheng thought to herself, so she got up and walked out the door.

At this time, Mei Niang was also the same as Mrs. Cheng in the morning, a big stone in her heart fell, and she was in a good mood, but why didn't anyone come to report it for a long time.

"Did anyone come this morning?" Mei Niang asked, Mei Niang naturally referred to Xiaofuzi and others, and someone should report it after the matter is completed.

"Back to the princess, no one came while you were still sleeping." The maid replied nonchalantly.

"Xiaofuzi, are they gone, isn't there anyone to report?" Mei Niang frowned and asked a little nervously, still a little relieved in her heart.

"The princess didn't, presumably those people were busy on the road and left in a hurry, so they didn't have time to report it." The maid said comfortingly, hearing the maid say this, Mei Niang thought about it and it was normal, and she suddenly felt a lot relieved.

"Princess, you don't have to worry, it's going to be fine." The maid said.

"Hmm."

"Princess Qiyu, Mrs. Cheng is here." The rough maid outside saw Mrs. Cheng coming this way from a distance, and hurriedly went in to report.

"Sister is here?"

"Yes, the slave maid saw that Mrs. Cheng was coming this way, and she should come in this way." The maid said. As soon as the words fell, I heard the rough maids outside say, "Slave maid, see the princess."

Mrs. Cheng lifted the curtain and walked in.

"The concubine sees my sister."

"Get up." Mrs. Cheng said with a straight face. Mei Niang felt a little uneasy when she saw this, why did Mrs. Cheng come over early in the morning with a straight face, specifying that something had happened again.

"Sister, what's going on, my sister came to my sister early this morning, my sister doesn't need to be so troublesome, just call someone to call my sister over, my sister also went on a trip in person, so my sister really didn't want to go." Mei Niang said curtly.

"That's it, the reason why this concubine is in such a hurry to come to you is because we have to expose the matter, what should we do, what should we do." Mrs. Cheng looked at Mei Niang in fear and said.

"What, it's revealed." Mei Niang asked with a frown.

"Last night, Xiaofuzi and the others didn't dispose of August."

"How so? Isn't everything ready? Mei Niang asked anxiously.

"Not only was August not eliminated last night, but he was also bumped into and rescued by the prince, what should we do." Mrs. Cheng said.

"Sister, don't worry, the concubine thinks that it was already late at night when Xiaofuzi and the others acted yesterday, even if the prince got off her, she probably didn't have time to reveal anything." Mei Niang pretended to say calmly.

"Mei Niang, if the prince knows the truth of the matter, he will definitely blame the two of us, especially you, who let you be in power in this mansion now." Mrs. Cheng reminded, which means that when the time comes, she hopes that Mei Niang will take the initiative to confess her guilt to the prince, after all, the person in power in the mansion is Mei Niang, and it has nothing to do with herself, Mei Niang twitched the corner of her mouth when she heard this, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes.

"What my sister said is that now that something like this has happened, Mei Niang is too careless, now is not the time to discuss who is who, the two of us have to find a way to get through the prince's level." Mei Niang cleverly avoided the topic that Mrs. Cheng said.

Mrs. Cheng glanced at Mei Niang, obviously a little dissatisfied. Mei Niang pretended not to see it, and reminded her: "Sister, the most important thing for us right now is to find August."

"You still need to say that Concubine Ben has already sent someone to find out the news, and it is estimated that she should come back this time." Mrs. Cheng said.

"It's still my sister who is prescient." Mei Niang praised.

"Sister, the concubine thinks that the prince should still be in the mansion this time, let's go to August so rashly, if the prince knows, will it make things worse." Mei Niang then said worriedly.

"It's time for this kind of fire to burn the eyebrows, where can I manage so much, the most anxious thing at the moment should be to find August and ask clearly, what I told the prince last night, what can we still have a bottom in our hearts, and when the prince asks, we have a way to deal with it."

"Sister, you say, will she be angry...... princess" Mei Niang said with some concern.

"What's wrong with being angry, Concubine Ben doesn't believe that the prince will be so ruthless to the two of us, you know, Concubine Ben is the person who has been with the prince for the longest time in this mansion." Mrs. Cheng said a little proudly.

"Hmph, I'm really embarrassed to say that I have been by the prince's side for so long, and I haven't won the prince's attention, it's really useless, what is there to show off." Mei Niang thought with some irony in her heart.

"Sure enough, you dare to deceive this king, this matter is by no means so simple." Wei Han said with a somewhat solemn face.

"Lord, princess, she really hasn't betrayed you." August said anxiously, I am afraid that Wei Han has listened to those slanderous rumors.

"This king naturally believes in his princess, okay, you don't have to be afraid, it's not too early, you can go back to the princess's courtyard and stay, and clean the room tomorrow."

"Yes, the prince and the slave went down first."

"Go ahead."

Wei Han quietly thought about what to do next in the study.

"Su Zhenzhen, where are you, you can make this king easy to find." Wei Han looked up at the window, feeling a little desperate.

Early the next morning, Mei Niang and Mrs. Cheng were in a very good mood early in the morning, because they thought that August had been disposed of last night, and they could sit back and relax, but it backfired.

"Princess, you slept well last night, the slave and maid look at you today, your complexion is very good, and your face is full of red light." The maid said earnestly.

"Yes, the big stone in my heart has fallen, so naturally I can sleep well." Mrs. Cheng held her forehead and said proudly with a smile.

"Princess, the slave maid will dress you up." Mrs. Cheng sat in front of the dresser when she heard the sound, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she really looked good, a few days ago she couldn't sleep well because she was pretending to be in her heart, and she was a little listless, but today she looked at herself in the mirror and looked good, and she was full of energy.

"Princess, Xiaofuzi asks to see." When Mrs. Cheng got up to dress up, the rough maid outside came in to report.

"Little Fuzi? How did he come, didn't he leave? Mrs. Cheng asked suspiciously, after the original said that it was disposed of in August, in order to prevent the prince from finding any clues, Mrs. Cheng and Mei Niang agreed to give them some silver taels, telling them to return to their hometown, the farther they go, the better, if this is the case, they should have already embarked on the road back to their hometown, how can they still appear here. Mrs. Cheng frowned, isn't it ......, won't it? Mrs. Cheng seemed to have guessed something, but she couldn't believe it, after all, they felt that this matter was seamless and no one would find out.

"Call her in." Mrs. Cheng got up and walked out of the dresser, sat on the bed and waited.

"Slave...... Slave maid, I have seen the princess. As soon as Xiaofuzi came in, he knelt down and asked for peace.

"Didn't you say that after the matter was completed, I asked you to go to the housekeeper to get the money, why are you still here, shouldn't you leave, why shouldn't you think about taking the opportunity to blackmail the concubine before leaving, hum, and take yourself as a child." Mrs. Cheng glared at Xiao Fuzi and lowered her voice sarcastically.

"Princess, slaves don't dare." Xiao Fuzi gritted his teeth and said.

"Forgive me for not having the guts, let's say, what's the matter, hurry up and get out of this concubine after speaking, don't let this concubine see you again." Mrs. Cheng said angrily.
