CHAPTER XV

Fifteen chapters

At the same time, the Ye family, who was far away in the capital-

"How do you all protect your masters!" Old Man Ye angrily dropped the teacup in his hand, and his handsome face was full of anger, "How did the people of the Third Prince know Changsheng's whereabouts!" Didn't you realize that you were following someone? ”

The Prime Minister, who had been in the position for a long time, roared like this, and the guards who knelt below to report the news lowered their heads and did not dare to say a word. What's more, it's a fact that they lost the little master, which is already a big sin.

Ye Dashao also sat on the side with a gloomy face and did not speak, exuding an aura of wanting to kill all over his body.

And Ye Ershao looked left and right and sighed: "Dad, big brother, it's a little late to pursue the matter of the third prince now, our top priority is to find Xiao Wu as soon as possible and send him to a safer place." "None of them thought that the obsession of the three princes would be so deep, and they would run so far after people. I didn't expect that the Ye family, which was protected by layers and seemed to be as tight as a bucket, could also be inserted by the third prince, and it seemed that the situation was indeed very unfavorable to the prince.

Brother Ye glanced at the guards who were still kneeling on the ground, and asked in a cold voice, "How are you looking for someone now?" ”

"Back to the eldest young master, it's still ...... There is no news of the little master yet. ”

"Bastard!" Old Master Ye's temper, which had just calmed down, came up again, and he slapped the table and roared, "It's been a few days!?" Haven't found it yet! What do you all do for food!? ”

"Dad, dissipate your anger, there is no movement on the third prince's side, and it is estimated that Changsheng is not in his hands." Ye Qingliu comforted him like this, but the next sentence was interrupted by Brother Ye.

"Changsheng is still sick, even if he is not taken away by the third prince, with his body, who do you think can take care of him?"

Hearing Ye Qinglan's words, Ye Ershao was also silent. Their little five has a poor foundation since he was a child, taking medicine is as common as eating, and people are so squeamish, if no one coaxes him and refuses to open his mouth at all, even if he is rescued by a well-wisher, but in the end it is not his own family, who can hold people in their hands and hurt them like them?

"Is there any news from Tianjia?" Brother Ye calmed down for a while and asked about the whereabouts of the other person.

The guards below lowered their heads: "Subordinate, subordinates don't know, Tianjia didn't contact us, we ...... Having lost his news. ”

"Click" Ye Qinglan crushed the porcelain cup in his hand, and the expression on his face became even colder, "He lost the young master of our family, not only did he not come back to ask for the guilt, but he also has no whereabouts, what a daring thing!" ”

The people below opened their mouths several times to defend Tianjia, he is not a person who escapes responsibility in this way, but he is just a subordinate, and the master is obviously crazy now, and he can't listen to anyone's words at all.

Prime Minister Ye held his forehead and waved at him: "You go down and continue to look for someone." Remember to look quietly and secretly, and don't make a single move, you know? ”

"Yes, my subordinates must do their best to find the little master intact!" Not punished, the guard bowed his head gratefully and solemnly, and turned to go out.

There was a dead silence in the study again, and it had been thirteen years since they learned that Changsheng had lost his whereabouts. From the initial anger to the current helplessness and panic, the whole process is torment. They couldn't think of how a good child suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight, not to mention that he was still sick, how could there be no news at all?

"It stands to reason that according to the appearance of our little five, everywhere we go should be the focus, and there shouldn't be any movement like this." Ye Ershao muttered to himself, unable to figure out the reason.

Ye Dashao listened to his words, paused for a moment and said, "Unless, someone deliberately hid him." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the atmosphere in the study became even colder.

So that's true. Unless someone really has the intention to hide people, with the power of the Ye family, it is not clear whether they are dead or alive like this, and the whole person is like evaporating from the world.

But in this way, the situation seems to be even more dangerous. If the person who took Changsheng had good intentions, why did he hide it? What if he had some other purpose......

Prime Minister Ye paced back and forth in the study uneasily, the more he thought about it, the more scared he felt, his little five was too good, if he really met someone like the third prince, it would be difficult to ensure that the other party would not have the idea of hiding Jiaojiao in the golden house, if he happened to have a little power, it would be even more difficult, and it would be even more difficult for them to find someone.

"Send more people, don't let go of all places, search carefully, don't alarm anyone, be sure to find Changsheng before the people of the three princes. Then take the person to Yunjin City and hide it, and no one is allowed to take him out without my permission. Prime Minister Ye calmly ordered, and he couldn't find Xiao Wu, he couldn't eat or sleep well.

Seeing that he was haggard and a few strands of white hair grew on his head, Ye Ershao looked a little sad: "Dad, go and rest, it's not a matter of a day or two to find someone, don't wait for Xiao Wu to find you and collapse." ”

Prime Minister Ye listened to his words and sat on the chair tiredly, "Where can I sleep, he has never left home for more than two days, let alone left me and your mother for so long." As soon as I closed my eyes, the child was all around me calling Daddy, and his cries were all over my ears. He's still sick, which time didn't I coax him in front of me, and now I don't know if he eats well, whether he is uncomfortable, whether he takes medicine or not, whether he is afraid or not. I can't sleep at the thought of that. I'm old...... Stand. ”

"Daddy......" Ye Dashao couldn't bear to speak.

"Just let our grandfather and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about this, don't tell the old lady and your mother, and don't let the eldest daughter-in-law know that she has just been pregnant and can't be stimulated." Prime Minister Ye seemed to be really tired, he raised his hand and waved to the two brothers: "You all go out, I'll be alone and quiet." ”

"Daddy......" Ye Ershao wanted to say something, but was stopped by his eldest brother, and the two of them walked out without saying a word and closed the door of the study.

Ye Chengxiang sat alone at his desk, looked at the turquoise spring picture that Ye Changsheng drew when he celebrated his birthday in the past, and reached out and slowly covered his eyes.

――――――――

In the inn, as if he had a sense in his heart, Ye Changsheng, who was squinting and soaking in the hot water, suddenly raised his head, looked around the room suspiciously, and lowered his head in disappointment for a while.

Chu Liuxiang, who had just added hot water to him, saw his sad face, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, is the water temperature not enough?" ”

Ye Changsheng lay on the side of the barrel and shook his head: "No, the water is just right." He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Brother Chu, can you help me rub my back?" ”

Just now, he thought he heard his father's voice calling him, but when he came back to his senses, he realized that it was his hallucination.

Chu Liuxiang smiled: "Of course you can." Without saying a word, he took a cloth towel and turned around. ”

Because he stays at home and doesn't go out because he is sick all the year round, Ye Changsheng's skin is extremely white, and when he is soaked in water, he looks like a real white jade beauty. The skin touched by the hand is even smoother and delicate, better than the skin of the girls that Chu Liuxiang has embraced, which makes people linger.

Even if he hadn't taken a bath for many days, Ye Changsheng didn't have anything dirty on his body, just a little effort with a cloth towel, and the fair skin under his hands turned red. Chu Liuxiang was afraid that he would wear out the skin with too much strength, so he could only try his best to be light and move carefully on his back little by little.

Ye Changsheng lay on the edge of the bucket and said sullenly: "Before, my father and eldest brother also helped me rub my back. ”

"Huh?" Chu Liuxiang didn't speak, and listened to him quietly.

"My eldest brother is a majestic general, he has thick calluses on his hands, which is comfortable when rubbing my back, and he can accurately scratch where I itch." Ye Changsheng said faintly, "My father is a little worse than my eldest brother, but every time he will tell me interesting stories and eat small snacks bought from outside." ”

These two people, one is the prime minister of the dynasty and the crown prince, and the other is a general with heavy troops, both of whom are high-powered and powerful people, but when they returned home, they were not willing to rub the back of the little ancestor in the family.

The people in the little young master's family really love him very much.

Chu Liuxiang thought so.

"And my second brother, he is bad, he often teases me, but he is also the best, when I can't go out when I'm sick, he guards me all night, and finds me all kinds of good-looking little scripts to relieve my boredom. Once, he even got into a fight with his best colleague, and his eyes were blue, and then he grabbed one of his favorite pictures of begonia spring sleep and brought it to me......"

Ye Changsheng talked about his life at home intermittently, his voice gradually quieted down, and finally he couldn't help choking and whispered: "I'm homesick." ”

He held back his tears and didn't want to cry, but his eyes still misted and blurred everything in front of him.

Chu Liuxiang sighed, this little young master hasn't mentioned anything at home once these days, and thinks that he is quite strong, so he is all forbearing.

"Shall I take you home?" He thought about it, reached out and touched Ye Changsheng's wet little head and asked softly.

Who knew that Ye Changsheng wiped away his tears and shook his head firmly: "No, I can't go home yet, I want to go to Pingzhou." ”

Hearing him insist so much, Chu Liuxiang was surprised, he was so homesick that he cried, but he still bit to death what Pingzhou he was going to, which made him even more curious about the purpose of his trip to Pingzhou. However, Chu Liuxiang also knew in her heart that this kid would not sue her at the moment.

"Okay, Brother Chu will send you to Pingzhou." Although he really doesn't know where Pingzhou is now, he can always find clues.

"Hmm......" Ye Changsheng's voice lowered, and he didn't speak for a long time, but when Chu Liuxiang looked over, he found that he was asleep holding the bucket.

Chu Liuxiang wanted to wake people up, but looking at the tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, he was a little unbearable after all. After thinking about it for a while, I was afraid that he would catch a cold, so I had to take a blanket over and take the person out of the water, wipe it clean, change into a clean underwear and stuff it into the quilt, and carefully took a dry towel to wrap his wet hair so that it would not wet the pillow.

Forget it, let's wake him up when dinner is ready.
