He planned to go to the Capital Prefecture Governmental Office and have the people inside thoroughly investigate how the Ye Familyās child could have been kidnapped, and whether this was really a kidnapping or a scheme orchestrated by the Ye Family themselves.
Just as he stepped out of the mansion, he encountered Yang Chuxia, who knelt before him, tears streaming down her face.
"Prince, I beg you to save my son!"
"He has been kidnapped by a gang of grave robbers. Iāve heard they are extremely vicious and will surely kill my son. I beg you to send people to help find my son."
"Even if you donāt do it for the Ye Familyās sake, please do it for the sake of Secondary Consort Yang."
"Please, Iām begging you!!"
He had never seen Yang Chuxia like this, crying so miserably, with her forehead red and swollen from bowing too hard.
"Why is heaven so cruel? One of my children is sick, and the other is missing. How am I supposed to live like this?"
"Heaven is unfair!!"
Listening to her wailing, Prince Le felt a headache coming on.
"Alright, alright, Iāll have someone look into it. Whatās the big deal? Itās just a missing child, and you still have three more. Whatās there to be afraid of?"
His words were so harsh that Yang Chuxia forgot to cry, feeling as if something was stuck in her throat.
Without paying her any more attention, Prince Le left with his entourage.
Yang Chuxia looked at his back and sneered inwardly. He really was a good-for-nothing; to him, losing a child was like losing an object.
She stood up, dusted off her clothes, and left.
By the time Yang Dongxue came out, there was no sign of Yang Chuxia.
Back at Prince Anās Mansion, Yang Chuxia immediately had Ming Lan bring water to wash her face. In order to cry, she had applied chili juice around her eyes, which were now burning painfully.
"Madam, donāt be too sad. The young master will surely be found."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia burst into tears once more.
Ming Lan was so startled she didnāt know what to do.
"Madam, please donāt cry. The young master has already sent people to look; surely he will be found."
"Those wretched grave robbers, why did they have to kidnap our young master?"
Yang Chuxia couldnāt stop crying, Ming Lan wiped her tears, and the other maids were also downcast. By the time Ye Ziāan returned to the mansion, the entire place felt gloomy.
"Young Master, youāre back just in time. Please try to comfort Madam; sheās been like this ever since returning from Prince Leās Mansion."
Ye Ziāan glanced at Yang Chuxia, who was sitting in the chair with her head hanging low, and his heart twitched.
"Alright, you all can leave now!"
Once everyone had left, the person in the chair immediately lifted her head, "So, whatās going on with Lele?"
"Donāt worry, Iāll tell you slowly." Ye Ziāan sighed, pressing her back into the chair, "Lele is safe now, taken to the north with Ye Er..."
As it turned out, the gang of grave robbers was real, encountered by chance. When they took Lele, Ye Er, who had been secretly following, chased after them and rescued Lele.
When Ye Ziāan arrived, he had Ye Yi and others help eliminate the remaining grave robbers.
After dealing with the situation and burying the bodies, Ye Er and his group took Lele away, while Ye Ziāan returned with Ye Yi and the others, pretending they hadnāt found Lele.
As for Yang Chuxiaās wailing at the gate of Prince Leās Mansion, it was orchestrated by Ye Ziāan. Yang Chuxia knew little of the details involved.
