Chapter 269: It's Snowing
Li Xiaonuan was really curious about Xiao Si's identity. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Previously, Wei Yu had said that Xiao Si did not sell himself to the Wei family. Moreover, Xiao Si's identity is not trivial, he also has a fiancée who is a good match.
At that time, Li Xiaonuan simply thought that Xiao Si was just a descendant of a wealthy family in the Jiangnan area.
"Xiao Si, you must be from the royal family, right?" Li Xiaonuan guessed.
"Miss Li, don't ask more. When you should know, you'll know. It's just, Miss Li, can you not be so unkind to our son-in-law? My son-in-law is quite attentive to Miss Li. Xiao Si did not answer Li Xiaonuan's question positively, but changed the topic.
"Xiao Si, I will never marry in my life." Hearing this, Li Xiaonuan said firmly.
"Why?" Xiao Si asked puzzled.
"I just don't want to get married. I want to create my own home, and I will keep the property I have worked hard to earn all my life, and no one will marry. Li Xiaonuan returned.
"Miss Li, creating a home does not conflict with getting married. Also, the excuse of not marrying in order to keep the property he earned seems too unconvincing. Xiao Si didn't think that everything Li Xiaonuan said could become an obstacle to her getting married.
Li Xiaonuan sighed faintly, and then stopped breathing.
Inside the cave, there was silence for a moment. The sound of the small corner tower burning and collapsing on the ground was particularly loud.
"I don't know if the people sent by the prince can compete with those people. If they can't finish fighting outside for a few days and nights, then we will really starve to death here. After a long time, Xiao Si said.
Hearing Xiao Si's slightly dejected words, Li Xiaonuan snorted and laughed.
She teased: "You deserve it, who let you bury your family here alive." ”
Xiao Si smiled bitterly and shot back: "Miss Li, I'm not here to save you." Why do you think you're so stupid? It would have been nice if you had just jumped down that hole. That secret passage can lead directly to King Jing's Mansion. ”
Li Xiaonuan also smiled bitterly and said: "Who knows which evil person was fallen for at that time, thinking that it was right to lead the thief away and not expose that secret passage." ”
After speaking, Li Xiaonuan and Xiao Si both laughed. It's just that there is no sense of ease at all in their laughter.
Let's say that it took the little county lord the strength of the boss to bring that group of people back to the Jingwang Mansion.
At that time, Su Shi cried all the way, complaining all the way that he went down the hole first. Father Li even begged the little county lord, saying that he would go up to find Li Xiaonuan.
Only Xiao Gang sensibly persuaded the two old men not to cause trouble for the little county lord. Xiao Gang also said that Li Xiaonuan must have a way to get out, so he will run away directly.
With such persuasion all the way, Su Shi and Father Li did not say that they were going back to find Li Xiaonuan. It's just that they are still very worried about Li Xiaonuan.
No, just after the secret passage, Su said that he would go outside to inquire about Li Xiaonuan.
Daddy Li is more direct. He said that he wanted to go back to the other courtyard to find Li Xiaonuan. He said that as a father, he had the obligation to save Li Xiaonuan.
Seeing this, Xiao Gang could only cry out, saying that his neck hurt and he was uncomfortable.
There is also Zhou Liufei, after he persuaded Daddy Li to no avail, he struggled to get up and said that he wanted to go together.
Under the double threat of Xiao Gang and Zhou Liufei, Su Shi and Li Dad stopped.
But Xiao Gang was still very sensible and asked the little county lord to send some people to find Li Xiaonuan as soon as possible.
There is no need for the Li family to speak out, the little county lord must send someone back to the other courtyard to save the scene. But in order to appease the Su family, the little county lord gave an order in front of them.
There were not enough people in the Jingwang Mansion, so the little county lord asked them to take the seal of the palace and go to the palace to borrow it.
In this way, Li Dad and the others were a little relieved.
The little county lord thought about it, and asked people to send a message to King Jing, informing him of the attack on the other courtyard.
King Jing was in the firearms camp at this time, supervising those craftsmen to make iron ball bullets of various specifications.
When he received a message from the little lord, he felt that something was wrong. Because, the little county lord said, the gate of the other courtyard was blown open by a big thunder.
There are thieves in the firearms camp.
This is the only thought of King Jing at present. He had to get the ghost out of it as soon as possible. Otherwise, this time, Qi Song would really be in chaos.
King Jing walked back and forth in the house several times anxiously, and finally made up his mind.
He called two of his cronies, and after giving such an explanation, he swaggered out of the room.
That night, the five truckloads of secret materials escorted into the palace by King Jing were robbed by someone in the middle of the road.
And King Jing, because he was too nervous about those things, was seriously injured by the robbers. After that, King Jing was even more unknown in the chaos.
Early the next morning, the news that King Jing's whereabouts were unknown after he was seriously injured spread throughout the capital.
At that moment, the entire palace fell into despair. In order to find the whereabouts of King Jing, the little county lord even dispatched all the guards.
Among them, a small Jingba, which King Jing particularly loved, also set off with the team.
King Jing's life and death were uncertain, and there was no one in charge of the firearms battalion, so the person who was making trouble behind the scenes appeared.
They instigated the craftsmen of the firearms battalion, made them heckle, and created chaos. Later, they tried to steal all the drawings and recipes.
It's a pity that when King Jing left, everything had already been arranged.
When those people took advantage of the chaos, the Praetorian Guards, who had been waiting for a long time, mercilessly wiped them out.
No, there are still fish that slip through the net. Someone has to go back to report the news, and then the Praetorian Guards will follow the vine and touch the melon.
Eventually, the people who went to find King Jing met the Praetorian Guards chasing the inner ghost outside a deserted courtyard.
After careful identification, they stopped at a dry well in the courtyard.
Of course, this incident was already the third day after King Jing's accident.
At this time, Li Xiaonuan and Xiao Si were already hungry and dazed, and collapsed in the clammy and cold hole.
Because of the environment, both of them suffered from dampness and cold to varying degrees, and started to heat up.
Before fainting, Li Xiaonuan thought to herself that she had made herself miserable this time.
is really as Xiao Si said, the people who came to find Li Xiaonuan fought with those thieves for three days.
Li Xiaonuan was woken up by a loud rumbling sound. When she woke up, all she knew was that she was surrounded by cold water.
"Li Xiaonuan, wake up, don't sleep?"
In a daze, Li Xiaonuan was fished out of the water and hugged into a warm embrace.
Li Xiaonuan tried to open her eyes, wondering who the person who was calling her anxiously was.
It's just that she finally opened a trace of her eyes, but what she saw was the snowflakes in the sky.
"It's good, it's snowing." This is the first snow of this winter, and Li Xiaonuan has been waiting for a long time.
This was Li Xiaonuan's last thought before she completely fainted. (To be continued.) )
