Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Disappearance of the Late Spring
"What are you doing here?" Duanyue leaned on the railing, holding a fan painted with a beautiful Shih Tzu in her hand, and there was a cool breeze that was used for a while, so comfortable. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She leaned out of the pavilion and asked again loudly to Xu Xiachu, who was very worried by the lake. "What are you doing here?" This raised voice finally reached Xu Xiachu's ears, he turned his back to Duanyue, quickly sorted out his expression, changed it to a smile, and turned to Duanyue with a smile.
"Me? I'll just walk around. ”
Duanyue half-narrowed her eyes, and looked Xu Xiachu up and down in disbelief, and his heart was furious. This girl looks stupid on weekdays, why is she surprisingly sensitive? Every time she has something, she always looks at it with this kind of eyes that can see through people's hearts.
"Really? You're all staring at the water with a cup of tea here, how can a normal person be so boring. Duanyue snorted coldly, and her tone was very firm.
Xu Xia smiled secretly in her heart. I watched a tea-time fish here, and you actually watched a tea-time me in the pavilion, to say that the boring two are really half a catty. But he could only think about these words in his heart, so he didn't dare to say them. I had to find a random reason to prevaricate.
"I'm just weird, I only see red carp in this lake on weekdays, and I don't know when there is a black fish, and it still doesn't move. I stared at it for a long time, and then I realized: Oh! It turned out to be a rock! His humorous words caused Duanyue to giggle, and he wittily resolved the crisis.
She waved her fan and asked Xu Xiachu in a smile. "After the Queen Mother's birthday, do you still want to go out of Beijing?"
"Even the most powerful iron man can't fight every day, and it won't be two months before he goes back. Don't worry, Master Hou will be able to be idle in the mansion every day. Xu Xia's original heart was like exquisite, and she immediately understood Duanyue's words. Hearing him answer like this, Duanyue also smiled knowingly, and nodded slightly complacently.
"Oops, the head of the fish hurts after watching it for a long time, so I'll go back to the house and lie back first, Xiaoyue, you can feed the insects here." Xu Xiachu waved his hand in mid-air to dispel the annoying mosquitoes, and Duanyue's ears often had an annoying sound of "buzzing". She quickly moved her ass to a place where there were no bugs.
Duanyue saw that Xu Xiachu was leaving, so she suddenly remembered something and immediately stopped him. "Xu Xiachu! Wait a minute! ”
Xu Xia immediately stopped when she heard the sound, and she didn't dare to move. He turned around and looked at Duan Yuelai, who suddenly stood up, with a puzzled face, slightly cautious. "What's wrong?"
"Uh-huh......" she squirmed for a moment, and uh-huh for a while before she could make it clear. There's just one thing that wants to trouble you. Can you go to Chenzhou for me to visit Sister Qichun? It's the woman who saved my brother and me back then, do you remember? ”
Xu Xia frowned as soon as she thought about it, and her eyes naturally looked at the upper right. Many years have passed, and the woman looks like an ordinary person again, and he really can't remember it all of a sudden, he only remembers that she is a woman who doesn't say much and is very restrained.
"You want me to visit her in Chenzhou?" He repeated, Duanyue nodded happily.
Seeing her expectant look, Xu Xiachu shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. "I can't help you."
"Why!" Duanyue's face turned as if her face had changed, and she instantly became angry. She glared angrily at her round eyes and asked angrily about Xu Xia's first arrival. "Why can't you help me?"
When Xu Xia first saw her thunderous appearance, she immediately weakened, and her face was full of smiles to soothe Duan Yuelai. "Don't worry, it's not that I don't want to help you visit Miss Qichun, it's just that ......"
Seeing that he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, Duanyue continued to ask. "Say, what the hell is going on!"
Xu Xiachu fell into a dilemma all of a sudden, and he sighed before he told the story. "It's not that I don't want to help you, as early as two years ago, Master Hou asked me to go to Chenzhou to pick up Miss Qichun, but when I finally rushed all the way there, I found that there was no one in the house back then, and I asked the villagers to know that Miss Qichun had already left from Hongye Village, and no one knew where she went."
"What?" Duanyue repeated softly in disbelief, her eyes kept rolling, and she couldn't figure out why she didn't see Qichun.
"Where can she go?" Duanyue muttered to herself.
"Is it possible that I came to Chang'an to find you?" Xu Xiachu touched his chin and said in a deep voice.
Duanyue shook her head, quickly rejecting his idea. "No, it was two years ago, and Sister Qichun also knows my name and my brother's name, so it's easy to find the two of us in such a small Chang'an City."
Xu Xiachu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, it was really strange for a big living person to disappear inexplicably, but these had nothing to do with him. He had no choice but to prevaricate at will. "I'll order people to pay more attention, and you don't have to worry too much, so a big living person can't run anywhere."
Duanyue clutched her sleeves tightly, still relieved. But at this time, Cuiguo hurriedly ran over.
I don't know what happened to make her so anxious. Cuiguo ran all the way to the foot of the pavilion, and before she could catch her breath, she shouted at Duanyue. "County Lord, it's not good! Miss Yu is gone! ”
As soon as Duanyue's head exploded, he immediately stepped down the stone steps with a "brush", and almost rushed to Cuiguo's side. "The mandarin duck is gone?"
Cuiguo nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice. "Mrs. Yu just sent someone to ask if Miss Yu was here, saying that someone was going to pick up and deliver food early this morning, and she found that the house was empty and there was no one."
recalled that the emperor was going to give Meng Tao a marriage last night, and at that time, Mandarin Yuan's expression was already unstable, and he didn't take things to heart yesterday, and now he thinks that he is really a bastard! With her character, if she does something stupid, then Duanyue will really feel guilty for the rest of her life.
She hurriedly looked at her, took out an iron green token from her waist, hurriedly stuffed it to Cuiguo, and said sharply. "You quickly take this into the palace to find Meng Tao, tell him about the disappearance of the mandarin duck, and make him feel like sending someone to find it!" Cuiguo nodded, and ran out with the token in her face.
Duanyue was like an ant on a hot pot, she was at a loss in place, and hurriedly ran out. Seeing this, Xu Xia hurriedly took her hand and asked with a frown. "What are you going to do? Although Chang'an City is small, it is bigger than you think! Seeing Duanyue stop, he sighed and led Duanyue out together.
"I don't worry about you going out alone, I'll accompany you to find it."
