Chapter 126: The Flower Thief
Nangong had never fallen asleep yet, when he heard Jinxin's voice, he was afraid that she would disturb Lu Mingyue's sleep, so he got up and put on a dress and came out to see.
"Jinxin, what's the matter?"
Nangong Jue opened the door, but saw Jinxin's anxious face.
"Miss, oops, let me in."
Jin Xin opened Nangong Jue and walked hurried inside.
Lu Mingyue had already gotten up when she heard the movement, and when she saw Jinxin rushing in in a hurry, she asked her, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's gone."
Jinxin's sudden voice made Lu Mingyue not know why.
"It's gone, what the hell is going on?"
Lu Mingyue hurriedly got out of bed, and Nangong Jue had already come in and picked up the clothes on the side and draped them on Lu Mingyue's shoulders.
"We had a good stroll around the night market, but we didn't know why we got separated, we couldn't find anyone anywhere, and we didn't see Yao Yao come back in the house, and the playboy was so anxious that he sent someone to look for it everywhere."
Jinxin's eyes were a little red as she spoke, what if something happened to her, Jinxin treated her as her own sister.
Lu Mingyue also felt strange, even if she was separated, it was impossible to find someone all the time, unless something really happened.
Lu Mingyue was worried about dying, so she put on her clothes and walked out, and Nangong Jue and Jinxin hurriedly followed behind.
"Tell everyone in the house to go out and look for the dead."
Nangong Jue followed Lu Mingyue out of the house and commanded the maid who was keeping vigil.
"Yes."
The maid took the order and ran away.
When Lu Mingyue and the others came to the street, they met Hua Leng looking for the dead people everywhere.
"What's the clue?"
Lu Mingyue stepped forward and asked Hua Leng anxiously.
Hua Leng shook his head and didn't say anything, but his face was very pale, his eyes were dull, and his body was shaking.
"Childe, I found the earrings of the young girl in the alley over there."
A family member in Huafu suddenly ran back and forth.
Hua Leng hurriedly ran to the place where Jia Ding said, and coughed after not running a few steps, "cough, cough"
。
"Childe, slow down, be careful."
The housekeeper of Huafu followed behind Hua Leng, chasing Hua Leng who did not stop.
Hua Leng has been frail and sickly since his mother's womb, although after years of conditioning, there is no major problem, but his body still can't withstand too much fatigue, presumably he has been constantly looking for the dead everywhere.
Lu Mingyue also hurriedly followed Hua Leng towards the alley over there.
"It's a dead end."
Jin Xin looked at the earrings that Hua Leng was holding in his hand and said.
When Hua Leng heard Jinxin say this, she was anxious, and she couldn't stop coughing, "cough, cough"
。
"What does it smell like?"
Lu Mingyue seemed to smell a little fragrance.
"Yes?"
The housekeeper of Huafu also sniffed his nose and sniffed hard.
"Oops!"
Lu Mingyue smelled that something was wrong with the fragrance, and hurriedly turned around to find the fragrance that was absent.
Nangong Jue and Jinxin followed closely behind, and Hua Leng also hurriedly followed.
Lu Mingyue looked for the fragrance and came to a remote deserted courtyard, pushed open the door, and then a black shadow swept out and went over the wall.
Lu Mingyue is now concerned about the safety of the dying, where can she still take care of the black shadow, so she rushed to the courtyard.
When Lu Mingyue entered the courtyard, she saw a disheveled child lying in the grass, her eyes flickered, she took off her coat as she walked, walked quickly to her side, and covered her with a cover.
Jinxin hurriedly stepped forward to check Xiaoyao's body, looked at the palace sand on Xiaoxiao's wrist, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then took Xiaoxiao's pulse.
Nangong Jue immediately took off his clothes and put them on Lu Mingyue's body, standing quietly aside.
At this time, the rest of the people also arrived, and the moment Hua Leng saw the death, he ran over in a hurry, and just stretched out his hand, but because Lu Mingyue was there, he just asked worriedly: "Is it okay?" ”
Lu Mingyue knew that Hua Leng was in a hurry now, so she turned her head and shook her head at him, signaling to reassure him.
Jin Xin finished his pulse and said to Lu Mingyue: "I was drugged." ”
Lu Mingyue nodded: "Take the young man back." ”
Jinxin wrapped it and walked out with it.
Hua Leng kept watching Jinxin carry him out of the yard, and it was not good to catch up with him.
Lu Mingyue passed by Hua Leng's side and said softly: "In the past few days, I'm afraid I can't go to Huafu." ”
"I know."
Hua Leng was not disappointed, but looked at Jinxin and the figure of the young man and worried about the young man.
Nangong Jue stepped forward to hug Lu Mingyue and walked out of the courtyard with her.
"Someone."
Hua Leng commanded.
"Yes."
The family held up a torch and agreed.
"Let's find out who did it."
Hua Leng's tone was cold, but there was a hint of danger, presumably he was really angry.
"Yes."
The family received the order.
Hua Leng raised his feet and walked out, the housekeeper and everyone followed Hua Leng away, the abandoned courtyard regained its calm, and a black shadow quietly returned, and the corners of his mouth under the veil pulled out a strange smile.
As soon as Lu Mingyue and the others arrived at the gate of the Shen Mansion, they saw that Nangong Rui and the housekeeper were already waiting there.
"Are you alright?"
Nangong Rui looked at the sleeping baby in Jin Xin's arms and asked worriedly.
Jinxin glanced at him, and then said to Nangong Rui: "It's okay, it's just asleep." ”
"Let's go in first."
Lu Mingyue said to everyone.
Then all the people entered the house.
"Shen Fu, tell everyone in the house to come back."
Shen Fu, who was definitely waiting on the side of Nangong, commanded, and then followed Lu Mingyue away.
Shen Fu turned around and went down, instructing the people: "Go and call everyone in the mansion to come back, and then close the courtyard door." ”
"Yes."
The subordinate who stayed in the house replied.
Lu Mingyue and the others sent Xiao Yao back to the room and placed him on the bed, and Jinxin quietly stood aside.
Lu Mingyue took Nangong Jue and Nangong Rui to the outer room and sat at the table.
"Yue'er."
Nangong was definitely worried about landing Lu Mingyue, although there was nothing wrong with her death, but Lu Mingyue's frowning brows made him feel uneasy.
"I'm afraid that there are flower thieves in the city."
Lu Mingyue said suddenly.
Nangong Jue also nodded in agreement.
"Flower thief?"
Nangong Rui was a little puzzled, but when he saw that he was brought back, he seemed to understand something.
Lu Mingyue nodded and said, "Xiaoxiao has liked to walk around since she was a child, so I put special spices in her purse, just in case. ”
"I don't smell any fragrance on my body on weekdays, do you?"
Nangong Rui was curious.
"This kind of incense is specially developed by the pavilion owner, and it can only be smelled when it is triggered, and it is extremely light, ordinary people can't smell it, but the fragrance can be kept for a long time."
Lu Mingyue explained.
"No wonder there was a faint smell in the alley just now."
Nangong Jue said, but he glanced at Nangong Rui and found that Nangong Rui was hearing "Pavilion Master"
When he said the word, he didn't have any expression, and he didn't wonder who the pavilion master was, which made Nangong Jue have doubts.
Nangong looked at Lu Mingyue silently, and found that Lu Mingyue was normal, in front of him and Nangong Rui, he casually said the word pavilion master, and even guessed whether they had known each other for a long time, and even Nangong Rui knew the person of the pavilion master.
"But that smell is not the spice I gave to Xiaoxiao, but it comes from Xiaoxiao's body."
Lu Mingyue didn't notice Nangong Jue's thoughts, her eyes began to blur, as if she was thinking about something.
Nangong Jue and Nangong Rui were a little confused, and waited for Lu Mingyue to continue.
"When she was killed, she must have triggered the spice, so that the fragrance could diffuse, but she was drugged by the person who kidnapped her, and the fragrance of the drug covered the fragrance of the spice itself, but it could not cover the long-lasting function of the spice, but the spice retained the fragrance of the drug, and we could follow the fragrance to find the child."
Lu Mingyue explained slowly, but her brows were furrowed deeper and deeper.
"I see."
Nangong Jue and Nangong Rui know it.
"Yue'er, do you have anything on your mind?"
Nangong Jue saw that Lu Mingyue said things but was not at all relaxed, and was very worried.
"What is that person looking for?"
Lu Mingyue asked Nangong Jue, and she was also asking herself.
"Doesn't the flower thief like beautiful women?"
Although Nangong Jue said this, the words were nothing, but he also thought in his heart, "It seems that things are not so simple. ”
"Yes."
Lu Mingyue also knew, she also knew that she was also a beautiful and lovely person, but she always felt that something was wrong there, if you want to talk about beautiful women, Jiangcheng can say a lot more beautiful than Xiaoxiao, but why did she fall in love with Xiaoxiao.
"Yue'er, don't think about it, I've already asked Ye Han to report to the official overnight, and the government will investigate."
Nangong Jue comforted Lu Mingyue and wanted Lu Mingyue not to worry so much.
"Hmm."
Lu Mingyue nodded, but there was still something in her heart that she couldn't let go, "Why do you always feel that this incident is not so simple, is it because of an accident, am I too sensitive?" ”
"Yue'er, it's getting late, let's go back to the room, let Xiaoxiao sleep well, and talk about it tomorrow."
Nangong Jue saw that Lu Mingyue looked preoccupied, so he asked her to go back to her room to rest.
Lu Mingyue looked back at the young man lying on the bed, nodded at Jinxin, Jinxin nodded in response, and Lu Mingyue left with confidence.
Nangong Jue and Lu Mingyue went back to the room, and Nangong Rui also went back to the room by himself.
The three of them have more or less thoughts in their hearts, maybe this matter is not just as simple as the flower thief, but they can't see through what is hidden inside.
On the second day, Lu Mingyue ran to the room early in the morning, waiting for her to wake up.
"Do you sleep soundly at night?"
Lu Mingyue asked Jinxin, who was guarding the side.
"Well, it's okay, I just talked a few times in my dreams, and then I fell asleep."
Jinxin looked at the sleeping face and said.
"You go and rest, I'll keep watch."
Lu Mingyue said to Jinxin.
"It's okay, the effect of the medicine has passed, and I should wake up soon."
Jinxin said, looking at the young man with a look of pity.
His eyelashes fluttered, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Sister Jin, Miss."
As soon as he saw Jinxin and Lu Mingyue, he immediately cried.
"It's all right."
Lu Mingyue stepped forward and hugged Xiaoxiao and patted her back gently.
Jinxin carefully helped Xiaoxiao wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
