477. Chapter 477 Feng An Nuan was rescued by someone

Xuanyuan Qingxuan spoke up and asked Ouyang Yuefeng: "You, what are you laughing at?"

Upon hearing that.

Ouyang Yuefeng sat up, leaned in and stared at her, saying: "You've become timid; I don't even know who it was before, you were so bold, you just reached out and pulled at my clothes…"

As he spoke, he again recalled what happened later that night.

Xuanyuan Qingxuan felt Ouyang Yuefeng's gaze on her, filled with desire.

She quickly pulled the blanket up a bit.

"You…"

Ouyang Yuefeng lightly flicked Xuanyuan Qingxuan's nose bridge and said: "What are you thinking? I know exactly what you're like now; I couldn't possibly do anything to you at this time."

The next day.

Ouyang Yuefeng got up and decided to go to the Shi household, since Shi Lin and Qiao Sheng had rescued his wife and children; if he didn't know, it would be fine, but now that he does, how could he not go thank them?

However, he hadn't gone yet.

Shi Lin went to his door first; upon meeting, he grabbed Ouyang Yuefeng's collar and said: "Was it you who sent people to rescue Feng An Nuan?"

"What? Feng An Nuan was rescued by someone?"

Ouyang Yuefeng had indeed considered that before, but he didn't actually do it.

Shi Lin asked him again.

Seeing Ouyang Yuefeng still insist he hadn't done it, Shi Lin released him and said: "You'd better not have done it, or else I won't let you off, and the Emperor won't go easy on you either!"

"Shi Lin…"

Ouyang Yuefeng hadn't even gotten his words of thanks out.

Shi Lin turned and left.

Ouyang Yuefeng immediately sent two of his subordinates to find out what was going on.

Three quarter-hours passed.

They only then returned.

As soon as they returned, they told them what they had found out.

Last night at midnight, the Shuntian Fuya suffered a fire; the scene was chaotic, and Feng An Nuan disappeared then.

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture at once went to the palace to report this to the Emperor, who immediately ordered the city sealed, yet from last night until this morning they still hadn't found Feng An Nuan.

She seemed to have vanished from the world.

Shi Lin found out this morning; if not for that, he would have already been helping to look for her.

He hadn't been gone long.

The imperial guards from the palace then came here to search.

They searched thoroughly.

They almost dug three feet into the ground looking.

After they left.

Ouyang Yuefeng then seriously recalled.

Where could Feng An Nuan have hidden?

She has some friends, but they're the kind who abandon you when you're in trouble—how could they possibly look after her?

In that case.

The one who helped her must be someone from her family.

Feng An Nuan fled, and the Yamen would certainly check her family first.

If she wasn't hiding at home, where would she be hiding?

Here.

Shi Lin left Ouyang Yuefeng's residence and soon entered the palace.

Because he was late for the morning audience.

Many officials in court had objections to him, and several officials stood up to impeach him.

The Emperor certainly wouldn't cover for Shi Lin.

He stared at him and asked: "Shi Lin, no matter what reason you're late today, it's unacceptable; I will punish you—do you have any objections?"

Shi Lin met the Emperor's gaze and said: "I have no objections, but before the punishment I have something to say."

"Speak!"

The Emperor gave Shi Lin an opportunity.

Shi Lin said neither too fast nor too slow: "Your Majesty, the Wind Prime Minister's granddaughter, Feng An Nuan, has fled; I also ask Your Majesty to issue a wanted notice and have her apprehended nationwide."

The Wind Prime Minister's hand clenched.

Shi Lin is too ruthless; his granddaughter really picked the wrong person!

The Emperor spoke up: "I was just thinking the same."

He quickly had someone convey his order to apprehend Feng An Nuan nationwide.

Afterward.

The Emperor, for Shi Lin's tardiness today, sentenced him to thirty blows of the board and halved his salary for six months.
