I, the wanderer of the universe, love making friends

Chapter 259 Wang Er next door never stole

After Cixi fell into a coma, the entire palace fell into chaos.

The palace maids and eunuchs ran around in panic. Some were busy calling for the imperial physician, while others anxiously stood by the bed, fearing that something might happen to the powerful empress dowager.

For a time, the palace was in chaos and people were in panic.

It was not until noon the next day that Cixi finally slowly opened her eyes and woke up.

Li Lianying, the eunuch who had been serving by the bed, was so moved that tears came to his eyes when he saw this. He quickly knelt and kowtowed, crying with joy, "Your Majesty, you are finally awake! You worried us so much!"

The eunuchs and palace maids nearby also knelt down hurriedly and greeted him in unison.

Cixi turned her head slightly, glanced at the people kneeling around her, and then asked, "Little Li, how long have I been unconscious?"

Li Lianying did not dare to neglect the matter and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, you slept from last night until noon today."

Hearing this, Cixi thought to herself.

After a moment, she continued, "Did anything unusual happen in the palace last night? How could I have suddenly passed out?"

In fact, Cixi knew exactly why she fell into a coma.

But she still pretended to know nothing and asked questions, with the purpose of testing whether she had encountered any incidents such as a palace coup.

Li Lianying hesitated for a moment and replied cautiously, "Your Majesty, I heard that you were frightened when you got up last night, which led to your coma. After I learned of this, I immediately ordered the guards on duty last night to be severely punished, but..."

Having said this, Li Lianying suddenly stopped talking, as if he found it difficult to continue.

When Cixi saw him hesitating and wanting to say something, she couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart.

His relaxed brows instantly furrowed, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he shouted angrily, "But what? Just say what you want to say, and stop hesitating! If you dare to tell even a single lie, I'll have to watch your head!"

Li Lianying was so frightened by this sudden rebuke that he trembled all over and almost fell to his knees. He trembled and hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. Concubine Zhen... has disappeared!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding in the house. Cixi became furious and suddenly raised her hand and slammed it hard on the bed beside her.

There was a loud "bang" and the whole room seemed to tremble.

When the palace maids and eunuchs around heard the loud noise, they were all terrified. They lowered their heads and began to tremble involuntarily, fearing that they would become victims of Cixi's anger.

Cixi stared at Li Lianying with wide eyes and asked sternly, "What do you mean by 'missing'? How could a healthy person just disappear without a trace for no reason?"

Li Lianying didn't dare look up and meet Cixi's gaze. He only replied cautiously, "Your Highness, I have already sent someone to check. The doors and windows where Concubine Zhen is are intact. There is no sign of any force breaking through."

After a pause, he continued, "But... there's no trace of her in the room. Even her daily clothes and bedding are still in their original places."

After hearing this, Cixi frowned even more and said suspiciously, "Little Li, according to what you said, could it be possible that Zhenfei, such a living person, could just disappear without any warning?"

Li Lianying hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Your Highness, I have ordered people to search everywhere, but they have not been able to find the whereabouts of Concubine Zhen."

Cixi's expression became more and more ugly as Li Lianying spoke, and she looked gloomy.

After a long silence, he suddenly spoke again, "Little Li, I need to go to the Summer Palace immediately. You must quickly arrange everything. There must be no mistakes!"

When Li Lianying heard this, he secretly groaned in his heart. He knew very well that Cixi was angry at the moment, but he did not dare to disobey the order.

He could only hastily respond, "Master Buddha, you have just woken up and your body has not yet fully recovered. Traveling in such a hurry might be detrimental to your health. Otherwise... you should recuperate for a few days first."

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Cixi glanced at him coldly.

Li Lianying knew very well that this matter was of great importance, so he did not dare to say a word more and hurriedly began to arrange the relevant matters.

When everyone hurried to the Summer Palace, Empress Dowager Cixi was extremely anxious. She rushed to the room where the jewels were placed, eager to check the situation in person.

When she finally stood in front of the cabinet containing the emerald watermelon, she reached for the lock with trembling hands. She saw that the lock was intact, without any trace of prying or damage.

At this moment, Cixi still had a glimmer of hope in her heart, secretly thinking that perhaps it was just a false alarm.

However, just as the cabinet door slowly opened, Cixi felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted.

It turned out that the cabinet was already empty. Not only was the priceless jade watermelon nowhere to be found, but even the other treasures were gone.

What made her even more angry was that there was a note left in the cabinet with a few big words written on it: "Wang Er next door did not steal."

Seeing this scene, Empress Dowager Cixi was so angry that she trembled all over, her eyes turned black, and it seemed as if a ball of anger was burning in her chest, burning her heart and lungs to the point of breaking.

Her body began to shake involuntarily and she was about to fall to the ground.

Li Lianying, who was standing by, was horrified when he saw this. He quickly reached out to support her, shouting, "Old Buddha, Old Buddha, please take care of yourself! Let's sit down here and rest for a while."

As he spoke, his eyes inadvertently swept towards the empty cabinet, and he was instantly frightened out of his wits.

You know, this cabinet was filled with Karl Lagerfeld's most beloved rare treasures, and now they have disappeared out of thin air!
This is a huge sin, and if you are not careful, you may lose your life!

Thinking of this, Li Lianying couldn't help but shudder, and cold sweat ran down his forehead.

He couldn't imagine how many lives would be affected by this palace theft. Cixi sat on a chair nearby, and Li Lianying helped to calm her down.

She took several deep breaths, trying to calm her heart, which was beating violently with anger.

However, despite this, her face now looked hideous and terrifying because of her anger.

The pair of originally narrow eyes suddenly widened into a wide angle, with blazing anger flashing in them, as if they were about to spit out fire.

She slowly glanced at the eunuchs who were in charge of guarding the jewels with a look full of anger and questioning.

Every eunuch whose eyes were swept by her couldn't help but tremble all over, as if falling into an ice cellar.

Then, a stern shout came from Cixi's mouth: "You dogs and slaves! Don't you know that my treasure is lost?"

The sound was like a thunder exploding in the air, deafening.

For a moment, her angry roar echoed throughout the palace.

Hearing this roar, all the eunuchs turned pale with fright, and each of them was as terrified as a frightened bird.

Without any hesitation, they all knelt down immediately.

In an instant, only bursts of "plop" sounds were heard throughout the entire palace, one after another, without stopping.

The eunuchs kowtowed desperately, begging for mercy, "Your Majesty, please have mercy. We really didn't know that the things inside were missing!"

"Please spare us, Your Majesty! We have been guarding here honestly and diligently, and we haven't noticed anything unusual happening!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your servants are loyal to you and would never dare to be negligent in the slightest. Please understand yourselves."

The cries of begging for mercy mixed together, creating a noisy and chaotic scene.

Cixi's eyes were filled with anger as she shouted, "What are the palace guards doing? Concubine Zhen has disappeared, and so have my jewels. Arrest all those who were on guard last night!"

"Yes!" said Li Lianying.

Cixi frowned slightly, lost in thought for a moment, then slowly spoke, "So, someone actually had the audacity to sneak into this heavily guarded palace last night, not only successfully smuggling Concubine Zhen out of the palace, but also stealing my jewels?"

Li Lianying, who was standing by, couldn't help but lower his head and think when he heard this.

After a moment, he raised his head and replied respectfully, "To answer Your Majesty, if there really were thieves who broke into the palace and committed such evil deeds, it would be difficult for one person to accomplish it. Therefore, I speculate that the perpetrators must be a group of well-trained people with great martial arts skills."

After hearing this, Cixi secretly agreed with what Li Lianying said.

Because just last night, she witnessed with her own eyes the skills of the young thief. His movements were as agile as a ghost and his figure was as elusive as a phantom, which really surprised her.

Looking back now, she still feels a lingering fear, because she knows that her head can be easily cut off by the other party at any time.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder and quickly calmed herself down.

He then instructed, "Little Li, don't publicize this matter for now, especially not to the civil and military officials in the court. There are many people in the court who are dissatisfied with me. If this matter were to leak out, they would definitely take advantage of it to make a big fuss."

Upon hearing this, Li Lianying quickly responded, "Your Majesty, I will obey your Majesty's orders! I will keep my mouth shut and will not let any word of this matter escape the palace. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

After saying this, he carefully raised his eyes to observe Cixi's expression. Seeing that her face looked a little better, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Lang didn't worry about how frightened Cixi was, nor did he sleep with Zhenfei. He just sent her to Hong Kong.

I can't even worry about what's happening in the world outside.

He continued to live his own little life.

Before I knew it, I felt a little bored.

Going to make new friends.

Because people are constantly making friends throughout their lives.
