Chapter 52: Personal Investigation

Song Lan cried loudly, but did not forget to carefully turn her head and looked at Lu Yunxi who was standing on the side.

But seeing this, Lu Yunxi looked at Song Lan with a confused face, and her eyes seemed to be exploring the secret in Song Lan's heart.

After a while, seeing that Lu Yunxi had no reaction, Song Lan stopped her words, and with the support of Mama Li, she trembled and walked out of the courtyard.

As she walked, she said in a mournful voice, "I'm going to meet Qing'er's parents for a while, don't let them make too much trouble outside, if it affects the master's official reputation at that time, how can it be good?"

Seeing Song Lan leave with the support of Mama Li, Lu Yunxi's heart was even more puzzled.

Before Song Lan reached the door of the mansion, she heard a mournful cry coming from outside the door.

But I saw a middle-aged woman, disheveled, slumped on the steps outside the door of the squire's house, her hands sometimes raised high above her head, sometimes pounding heavily on the ground.

"My poor daughter is not yet in her prime. Over the years, she has been running around for this servant's mansion, doing her best for the master's family, but she didn't expect to end up like this!"

The woman cried louder when she said this.

The people around him also pointed and whispered.

Seeing this, the man on the woman's side raised his hand to help her up, but the woman threw her away.

The man looked a little sad at this time.

He turned around, glanced at the crowd, and said in a loud voice, "My daughter entered their Shilang's mansion innocently, but now she has been kidnapped, and she doesn't know whether she lives or dies. However, this squire refused to come to the rescue. If my daughter has any three longs and two shorts, the two of us will definitely not give up with this servant mansion in the future!"

There was a commotion outside the gate of the mansion, and the onlookers became angry, and they also pointed to the gate of the Shilang Mansion and said loudly, "Come out and give people justice!"

I don't know who shouted first, and then, the sound was like a wave, wave after wave.

Lu Ziyou went down to the court, and looked at the front door from afar, and in desperation, he had to enter the house through the back door.

He listened to the reply of the minions below, and was angry for a moment, so he ordered Lu Yunxi and Song Lan to come to see him.

The main hall could still faintly hear the movement outside the mansion, Lu Yunxi and Song Lan stood in the hall, and Lu Ziyou sat on the main seat, his eyes full of anger.

"My lord, it is clear what is written in the letter, and Xi'er must hand over the formula of agar jade dew and lipstick before he is willing to let Qing'er go, and the things next to him are useless. Song Lan lowered her head, her eyes were full of tears, and sometimes she had to wipe her cheeks with a handkerchief.

Lu Ziyou glanced at Lu Yunxi dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice, "In that case, you can give this thing to them." Qing'er's parents are making such a scene outside, and being looked at by the people, what does it look like!"

Hearing this, Lu Yunxi raised his head, put his hands on his waist, saluted Lu Ziyou slightly, and said in a low voice, "Father, it's not that my daughter refuses to hand over the formula. It's a weird thing. If the daughter hands over the formula, and the kidnappers refuse to release her, and ask for something else, how can we do it?"

Lu Ziyou's eyes were tightly frowned, his lower lip was pursed, one hand was on the edge of the table, and he gently tapped it twice, also looking thoughtful.

"Sir. Seeing this, Song Lan was a little discouraged, "But if you really don't give things to the kidnappers, this Qing'er's parents won't leave." We have a squire mansion, do we have to be tossed by them like this?"

When Lu Ziyou heard this, his face became a little more solemn.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Lu Yunxi to speak.

Lu Yunxi threw off the robe in front of him, knelt on the ground, put his hands together, and kowtowed to Lu Ziyou, "Father, since this is the case, my daughter proposes a compromise method." Ask the father to give his daughter three days, if after three days, the daughter still can't find any trace of Qing'er, then the daughter will definitely serve the formula with both hands. ”

Hearing this, Song Lan's eyes moved slightly, turned her head sideways, and stared at Lu Yunxi's side face, the tears in her eyes were more than half, but a little more annoyed.

"Then in the past three days, isn't it possible for them to tear up trouble outside?" Lu Ziyou stared at Lu Yunxi's eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Father, Qing'er has been with her daughter for many years, but she has never heard of anyone visiting her family. Come to think of it, her parents have never seen how much they love this daughter. As long as we are willing to spend some silver, seal their mouths, and let them give us some time to find Qing'er, I think about it, they will not be so torn apart. ”

"Xi'er, what you said is light, but how many taels of silver is enough for this parents' love for their son?" Song Lan said loudly when she saw this.

"Father, whatever amount of money they ask, let it be from their daughter's account. Lu Yunxi didn't look at Song Lan, only looked at Lu Ziyoudao.

When Lu Ziyou heard this, his solemn face softened a little, "Really?"

"Since Qing'er is the maid next to her daughter, her daughter is responsible for this matter to the end, so it is naturally her responsibility. Lu Yunxi kowtowed.

Lu Ziyou's frowning brows gradually stretched, he got up slowly, and nodded, "Three days, three days at most." If you can't find Qing'er after three days, hand over what they want. Don't let anything like this happen again!"

"Yes. Lu Yunxi agreed, but saw that Lu Ziyou had already turned around and walked towards the inner hall, "Father, can the daughter's grounding be lifted? Otherwise, the daughter can't walk on her own, how can she investigate this matter?"

Lu Ziyou turned his back to Lu Yunxi, nodded slightly, didn't say a word, and walked straight into the inner hall.

When Lu Ziyou walked away, Lu Yunxi slowly got up.

Song Lan snorted coldly, glanced at her, and said in a deep voice, "Three days, how can you find someone who can do such a thing as kidnapping in the capital?"

When Lu Yunxi heard this, her eyes moved slightly, she turned sideways, glanced around at Song Lan, and snorted lightly, "The eldest lady is a hundred secrets." ”

Song Lan's back was already back, frowning, staring at Lu Yunxi, "What did you say?"

Lu Yunxi shook the kidnapping letter in his hand, stared at Song Lan's eyes, the corners of his lips hooked, revealing an indifferent smile, "If the kidnappers really value the silver two, what do they do to tie up a little girl? Who's going to want the formula for these two things today?"

Song Lan's back tightened slightly, a burst of cold sweat dripped down her spine, raised her head, and stared at Lu Yunxi, "You are talking nonsense!"
