Chapter 326: The Disaster of Innocence

After Lu Tao put on the clothes prepared by the master here, he suddenly found that it was not something that he could not imagine playing a handsome boy.

Of course, it would be better if you added a folding fan.

Pulling the rather complicated clothes on his body, Lu Tao finally pulled the clothes into the most comfortable appearance.

"Yo! looks pretty good!"

Peony's voice came at the right time, she was wearing a set of clothes in the same style as Lu Tao, but the color was slightly different, in addition, Peony also held a folding fan in her hand, compared to Lu Tao, she was more of a handsome boy with red lips and white teeth, her long hair seemed to be tied up because she had just bathed, draped over her shoulders, exuding a faint moisture, and the girl's face was faintly red, as if she had a layer of blush.

"Haven't you seen me dressed like this? Peony looked at Lu Tao calmly, neither angry nor angry.

"I've never seen you dressed like this. ”

Lu Tao recalled that Peony wore through the clothes of the palace maid and the clothes of the eunuch, and she didn't even wear it when they met for the first time......

"Ahem...... I didn't mean that!" Lu Tao thought of this, and hurriedly added: "This dress looks good on you!"

"What do you mean?" Peony glared, not knowing if it was Lu Tao's illusion, but always felt that her face was even redder.

"It's not interesting! It's not interesting!" Lu Tao shook his head vigorously and decisively changed the topic: "Do you remember where I lived before? I have to go back, of course, I can go back by myself, no need to ......"

"Of course I have to go with you!Otherwise, you won't be able to enter the palace by yourself!" Peony shook his head and interrupted Lu Tao's words: "Then let's go, there's nothing going on here." ”

Lu Tao glanced back at Yongfu, a middle-aged man standing beside Peony, and nodded.

......

The closer he got to Uncle Xu's house, the more uneasy Lu Tao became, on both sides of the narrow alley were small yards, and when he walked through this alley, there were people who kept quietly observing Lu Tao and Peony passing in front of the door through the crack in the door, but once Peony and Lu Tao looked over, they would instantly close the door, and not even half of the gap would be left, until the two walked away, and the pair of eyes came through the gap in the corners.

"What's the situation?" Lu Tao looked left and right, but he didn't understand what was going on at all.

Peony shook his head: "I don't know, but I think it should be related to the storm that started the day before yesterday, since there was a storm in the palace, it is not unthinkable to make this place become noisy, don't worry, it shouldn't be coming at us." ”

Lu Tao shook his head, although he didn't know where the confidence in Peony's words came from, Lu Tao still chose to believe, walked a distance, and finally arrived at Uncle Xu's courtyard, but Lu Tao was startled.

The original courtyard gate has fallen inward, and at the entrance of the empty yard, the big black dog has disappeared, leaving only the half-truncated iron chain, in addition, the yard is chaotic, the chickens in the fence have also disappeared, and the leaves and weeds that have fallen on the ground have been paved with a thin layer, making people think that this is an old mansion that has been abandoned for an unknown number of years.

Lu Tao didn't care about anything else, and pushed open the door of his original room, but found that it was empty, there was no one, and a bed was split in half, as if he had experienced a not very simple fight.

When I ran to the main house, I saw that it was also a mess, and there were broken sawdust everywhere, but these did not look like the traces of a fight.

Of course, in the end, Lu Tao did not find Xu Bo and his granddaughter, and there was no one here at least two days ago.

Peony walked behind Lu Tao and asked, "This family ...... Is there a conflict with anyone else?"

Lu Tao shook his head, even if there is a conflict, no one should have such a big force to sweep this place away, or if it was a capable person who had a conflict with Uncle Xu, he would have retaliated a long time ago, and he still had to wait until now?

Is it because of yourself?

Lu Tao couldn't help but think of this possibility, and then thought about it, after all, Lu Tao had a lot of actions in the past few days, and he had gone to a lot of places.

But after thinking about it, Lu Tao didn't think that there was anything wrong, if the matter of him sneaking into the palace was exposed, he would have been trapped in the palace a long time ago, of course, it could not be revenge from the palace, although he had met the emperor and princess of the Great Qin Empire, but no one had ever seen him.

Lu Tao thought about it, and suddenly remembered one thing, if someone had to come here with some kind of purpose, maybe it was that, right?

Turning around, Lu Tao said to Peony: "It should have nothing to do with Uncle Xu, it is Hong Bingying who has something to do with it." ”

"You mean Bingying?" Peony frowned: "What does it have to do with Bingying?"

The relationship between Peony and Hong Bingying and Miss Hong is not bad, although they have only met once and it has not been for a long time, the change in the relationship between women can be said to be quite puzzling to Lu Tao, he thought for a while and replied: "There was a person who claimed to be a nobleman who almost robbed Hong Bingying before, if I didn't happen to meet him, he almost let him succeed, so I wonder if it was because that person managed to find Hong Bingying's place to settle that this place has become like this." ”

"It's a possibility. Nodding, Peony looked at the broken pieces of wood around him: "And it can also be seen from here that those people made this place like this, it should be to vent their anger and not really be attacked." So, we just need to find out who the nobleman you call really is, and tell me what characteristics he has?"

Lu Tao recalled for a moment and replied: "The clothes are loose, and they look oily and powdery......"

After informing Peony of all the situations that he could think of, Peony groaned and spread his hands: "What you said, most of those gentlemen who have no skills are like this, if you only rely on these to judge which nobleman it is, I can't think of it, but ......"

"But what?" Lu Tao asked eagerly, speaking of which, although Uncle Xu's family suffered this kind of unwarranted disaster, although it had little to do with Lu Tao, it was indeed Lu Tao who brought the danger over, so he had a responsibility, a responsibility that had to keep Uncle Xu and his granddaughter out of danger.

"If you ask about it, you can always find out, how can these fools do such a thing, how can they not show it off, just ask those stupid people, maybe someone has heard such news. ”

"Inquire about it?" Lu Tao was a little puzzled: "But can you really find out?" Peony, do you know any noble children?"

"Hmph! I don't know naturally someone knows, and you don't forget, Furong Fang is also under my control, with it, what news can't I hear?"

Thinking about it like this, Lu Tao was relieved, indeed, there was nothing easier to find out the news than Peony's Furong Fang.

"Okay, there's nothing to focus on here, let's go back to the palace first, and leave the rest to me, I'll tell you when I get the detailed information, of course, I'm afraid I won't be able to help with the rescue later, I'm short of manpower, and I don't have the strength to attack other nobles' homes." ”

Lu Tao nodded, he knew this, after all, when she first met Peony, she was also broken through by the soldiers who suddenly appeared, but she didn't have any backhand.

"Peony, the sooner this thing happens, the better. Lu Tao reminded that he could only remind him of the question of time.

"Of course, I understand, so we have to go back quickly, rest assured, I have a way to deliver news to Furong Fang in the palace, which is faster than we go directly to Furong Fang, and it is not easy to show flaws. Peony opened the folding fan in his hand, fanned the wind lightly, and then closed it again: "Let's go." ”

Lu Tao nodded, and walked out of the small courtyard with Peony.

......

When leaving along the alley, behind the doors on both sides, the residents who were secretly observing the open air and the peony finally disappeared, but Lu Tao still had a feeling of being snooped on, and glanced back at the peony, only to see that the peony spread the folding fan in his hand with one hand, and the other hand was behind his back, and he did not react at all because of the vague attention in secret.

shrugged his shoulders, Lu Tao also said that this discomfort was left behind, in short, it would be good to cover the troops to block it.

Just as the two of them were about to leave the alleyway, a door opened halfway, revealing a pair of bright but quite smart eyes, it was a young man who looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, he cautiously beckoned to Lu Tao and Peony, lowered his voice and whispered: "Two sons, I have something important to tell you!"

Lu Tao looked left and right, except for him and Peony, there was no one to stay with "Childe", but Peony walked directly to the door and asked, "What do you want to tell us?"

The young man poked his head out and looked left and right, still lowering his voice, "Two sons, can you come to my yard first? If someone sees me, I will also suffer." ”

"Okay. Peony glanced back at Lu Tao: "Let's go in." ”

Entered the courtyard of the young man's house with Peony, Lu Tao looked left and right, there was no difference between this and Uncle Xu's yard in terms of shape, there was also a space enclosed by a fence in the corner of the room, which was used to raise chickens, ducks and geese and other birds, but now there was nothing in the fence, only some chickens, ducks and geese feces were left, and I don't know how long it had been pasted on the ground, and there was a vegetable garden in the yard, and the vegetables in the vegetable garden were lush and green, and it looked like they had just been watered.
