Everyone was a little surprised when they saw this.

Over the years, Empress Chen's temperament has become more and more silent and demure. Normally, except in front of the Emperor, her face shows almost no emotion. They haven't seen her express emotions like this for many years.

Concubine Murong couldn't help but ask: "Queen, what happened?"

Suddenly, Concubine Feng said anxiously, "Could it be... something happened to Xiaoliu? Just now, a palace maid came to report that they couldn't find Xiaoliu's whereabouts."

Concubine Feng arrived at Changchun Palace quite early. When she arrived, she happened to see a palace maid telling the Empress about this matter.

Xiaoliu? Sixth Prince?

Su Liuyue looked at Concubine Feng.

According to Zhou Yunke, the emperor now has six princes. Su Liuyue has seen the first five princes, and the sixth prince is only seven years old this year. Like the King of Chu, his mother was born in a humble family, and he was born during the most turbulent years, so he has never had much of a sense of existence.

Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this.

Immediately, another concubine said, "Come to think of it, we have been in Changchun Palace for such a long time, but we have not seen the Sixth Prince."

"I remember that the Sixth Prince's biological mother, Lady Hua, was very ill during this period. In order to prevent the Sixth Prince from passing the illness on to him, His Majesty specially asked the Sixth Prince to move to Changchun Palace and let the Empress take care of him for a few days..."

When everyone said this, they couldn't help but look cautiously at the Queen, whose expression was becoming increasingly unsightly.

Although His Majesty has many women and children, he only has six sons for now. He still values ​​these six sons very much.

He personally asked the Empress Dowager to look after the Sixth Prince. If anything happened to the Sixth Prince in Changchun Palace, the Empress Dowager would be the first to be held accountable.

No wonder the Queen's expression changed so drastically just now.

Seeing that everyone had guessed what had happened, Empress Chen stopped hiding it and slammed the small table beside her, saying sternly, "What do you mean you can't find it anywhere! Changchun Palace is so small, search every corner carefully for me, even under the bed! If you can't find it in Changchun Palace, look outside! Do you still need me to teach you these things?"

The maidservant who had just delivered the message was startled and fell to her knees with a plop. She said with a pale face, "Reporting to the Queen, Changchun Palace... We have searched Changchun Palace inside and out, and we have searched it no less than three times. We have also searched all the places where His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince might go in the palace..."

If they really couldn't find it and they were worried that something might happen if time was delayed, she wouldn't have the guts to report to the Queen.

The entire palace is so big, how can they search everything in such a short time? And if they want to mobilize more people to help search, they must first ask the Queen Mother for permission!

The Queen's cheeks suddenly tightened even more, and her eyes were so cold that it was frightening.

At this time, a concubine said in a trembling voice: "We...we were just discussing the recent frequent disappearances and murders of children. The Sixth Prince would not..."

A concubine in a beige dress sitting next to her immediately interrupted her and said, "Xinpin, this is the palace! If that thief can enter the palace at will, then he is really terrible. Is there anyone in the whole Daqing who can deal with him?"

"That's right." A beautiful pink-dressed concubine with a big belly gently stroked her belly and said, "The Sixth Prince should just be hiding because he wants to have fun. Don't scare yourself.

Speaking of which…”

Her pair of lively peach blossom eyes suddenly turned slightly, and she looked straight at Su Liuyue and said, "It is said that the Crown Princess is a god at solving cases. In this case, perhaps the Crown Princess can help figure out where the Sixth Prince went. Otherwise, the palace is so big, and it would be exhausting to search everywhere one by one. If it gets to His Majesty's ears, it will just make His Majesty upset for no reason."

Su Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the concubine in pink.

Her appearance was the best among all the concubines, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, lips like flower petals, skin like cream, and a pair of peach blossom eyes with natural charm, which seemed to be able to captivate people with just a slight turn.

He is also the youngest and looks only a few years older than her.

Coupled with her obviously pregnant belly, a person suddenly emerged in Su Liuyue's mind - Zheng Jinshu, the third daughter of the Zheng family, who was once hailed as the most beautiful woman in Xinjing and was sent to the emperor by the Zheng family after the emperor led his army into Xijing.

It can be said that half of the Zheng family's current status depends on her and the dragon seed in her belly.

Su Liuyue actually noticed her from the beginning. Although her position was not high among the concubines, she acted in a low profile and rarely spoke, but her eyes kept glancing at her with deep coldness and scrutiny.

She has a deep grudge with the Zheng family. Now, her cheap ex-fiancé Zheng Baizong is still imprisoned in Jingzhao Prefecture, so she naturally cannot be friendly to him.

At this moment, Zheng Jinshu's eyes were filled with a hint of provocation, and she said, "Although I have been living in the palace, I have heard a lot about the Crown Princess' reputation for solving cases. My mother even said that since my seventh brother cooperated with the Crown Princess at the banquet hosted by Princess Changxi and found the murderer of the girl from the Ye family, he has been praising the Crown Princess and repeatedly lamenting that there is such a wonderful woman in the world. I believe that finding out where the Sixth Prince has gone is just a piece of cake for the Crown Princess."

Everyone immediately looked at Su Liuyue and echoed, "Yes, if the Crown Princess is willing to help, finding the Sixth Prince will be a piece of cake!"

"It is said that the Crown Princess's method of solving cases is very magical. Just by looking at the crime scene once or twice, she can know many details of the case! She can even know how old the murderer is, what he does for a living, and what his personality is like!"

Princess Feng looked cautious and said hesitantly, "But the Sixth Prince is a child and has always been unsystematic in his actions. How can he be compared with those brutal criminals?"

However, the next moment, a female voice rang out, "Madam Concubine Feng, you are wrong to say that. You should say that since my cousin can find such a cruel and terrifying murderer, it should be easier for her to find a simple-minded child."

Chen Shiya said, looking at Su Liuyue, and raised her chin slightly, "However, my cousin had previously worked with the people of Jingzhao Prefecture to solve the case. Now that my cousin is alone, everyone can understand if she can't find the Sixth Prince."

Chen Shiya and the third daughter of the Zheng family clearly wanted to put her on the fire.

It was as if, if she couldn't figure out where the Sixth Prince was now, it would prove that all her previous cases were just taking advantage of the work of everyone in Jingzhao Prefecture.

Su Liuyue couldn't help but sneered and said, "Princess Zhenning is wrong. I am not the only one who does investigation-related work here.

Let’s not talk about the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the current Jingzhao Yin. I remember that His Royal Highness the Prince of Liang is currently working in the Dali Temple, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is also helping out in the Ministry of Justice. According to Princess Zhenning, people who usually do this kind of work must be able to figure out where the Sixth Prince is right away?” (End of this chapter)
