**——————————。 **——————**

The three of them went straight to the west gate when they got out of Qiaoju. The gravel road in the city is okay, when it is out of the west gate for seven or eight miles, it is full of yellow mud, the horse's hooves step down, and then turn out a string of mud bubbles, the nine sons simply died in the distant mountains and dreamed of sinking the two, picked up the package of dry food and carried it, abandoned the car and walked.

It was the last moment of the Shen time when they left the woodcutter house, and when the three of them arrived at the Grange, it was already past the time of the child.

The next day, the rain began to subside.

It was almost noon, and Wu Rong hurriedly entered the small courtyard where the three of them lived. At that time, Jiu Gongzi had just brought a pottery bowl with porridge, and when he turned his eyes and saw this person stunned in front of the door, he asked lightly: "What's the matter?" ”

In the generation of the Wu family, in addition to the twelve brothers of Wuda who followed the nine sons closely, there were also Wurong, Wuxue and Wuseventeen who left to take care of the women and children. After coming last night, the ninth prince had already ordered things with these three people.

Wu Rong stepped forward and bowed. After the salute, he lowered his eyelids and reported: "Yu Gongzi, seventeen is back, because of the mud soup on his body, so he first sent the servant to see the child." At this, the man paused for a moment. After a moment, the interface said: "According to the instructions of the son, Seventeen went to the Zhao Mansion." It was found that Zhao Jialangjun had already left eight days ago. ”

8 days ago...... It was Uncle Qiang who got the order and sent people to surround the bamboo house that day.

According to the situation that the horse cannot raise its hooves and the car cannot drive, eight days is at most...... The light in the eyes of the ninth prince flashed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Where is Zhao Ling now, huh?" ”

"Zhao Langjun went to the land and turned to the north, and then abandoned the horse to board the ship, and now I am afraid that he has arrived in Yuyang."

More than 100 miles to the west of the new capital, there are nearly 200 large farms, so the terrain is undulating and continuous, so it is called Xuan. It is about 40 miles away from the Huai River, if Zhao Ling abandons his horse and takes a boat and goes up the river along the river, it is naturally faster than a galloping horse.

The question is. In the rainstorm, how dare this person?

The ninth prince sank slightly, opened his mouth and asked: "The wind is high and the waves are urgent, he will never give up his life." "Say you want it here. With a flicker of his eyes, he instantly fell on Wu Rong's face, "What did he do?" ”

When the river swells, if the boat capsizes, there will be no bones left, which Zhao Ling couldn't imagine. His cronies will also remind him. I knew it and did it anyway...... I want to hold on to it.

"Seventeen asked the farmers in the field, and the man said that as early as the beginning of the rain, Zhao Langjun sent someone to buy a big boat in the village, and let people use hemp ropes to connect them together." Speaking of this, Wu Rong raised his eyelids and glanced at the ninth prince, and saw that this person's eyes were thoughtful, and he couldn't help but say: "Thirty or fifty big boats are connected together, almost holding most of the river. ”

The width of the Huai River is more than ten zhang, and the narrowest point is only five or six zhang. If dozens of ships are connected together, it is indeed the safest.

According to the speed of the boat, this man must have picked up the little thing at this time, and since he can sail there, he can certainly sail back. Jiu Gongzi narrowed Danfeng's eyes slightly, thought for a moment, suddenly changed his words, and asked lightly: "Has Wu Xue seen Deputy Envoy Tian?" ”

Since that time he showed his face in Zhaoling, there has been no trace of Huo Wound since then. Not only did Zhaoling and Kunyang counties not send people here, but there was also no news from the Chi side. The ninth prince was faintly aware of it in his heart...... I'm afraid something happened in both places.

"Childe. Uze has not yet returned. ”

Since the halfway point of last night, Wu Xue and Wu Seventeen went out at the same time, at this time, Wu Seventeen was still going back and forth on this long journey, but Wu Ze, who went to Xindu, did not show up. Wu Rong thought about it, couldn't help but glance at the ninth son, and asked carefully: "Childe, I'm afraid it's ......." ”

After saying half a while, the courtyard gate "clanged", followed by the sound of footsteps gradually approaching. And listen to the sound, the chaos of the steps, at least two people.

The courtyard gate is only seven or eight zhang away from the main house, and a bluestone shadow wall is built at the entrance, and there are a few vine flower shelves in it. A few people naturally couldn't see the outside, Meng Shen raised his eyes to look at Jiu Gongzi, and as soon as he raised his chin, his figure flashed, and he arrived outside the door in an instant.

"Huh? Dongcheng ....... ”

"Is Childe there? There is an urgent ...... Urgency...... Report ....... ”

"Childe is in the house, come in."

After a few questions and answers, two mud monkey-like men sank into the house with their dreams. The two are almost the same in height, fat and thin, and their faces are covered with mud and gray stains.

The two of them bowed and saluted.

When sending Xie Jiang back to the house from Fuyun Mountain, because the four of Dongcheng often walked in front of people, Jiu Gongzi left a few of them alone, and only picked Meng Shen, who didn't often show his face, and the twelve brothers of the Wu family to serve him. Later, he hid in Xie Mansion and was discovered by Xue Ji and the Zhao family, so he transferred Fengtai and Dongcheng to Yuyang County on the evening of the day.

Before coming to Xindu, he had ordered several people in Dongcheng to focus on Qingshipo...... Jiu Gongzi's eyes flashed, he looked at the one on the left, and asked lightly, "What's wrong?" ”

Dongcheng's head hung almost against his chest, and he said in a dumb voice: "A few days ago, Huo Shen suddenly lost his trace, and the servants discussed it, Fengtai still guarded the bluestone slope, and the servants investigated around day and night. Speaking of this, I felt that my mouth was full of soil grains, and I couldn't help but pause for a moment.

The Ninth Prince glanced at the distant mountains.

At this time, there are not only porridge dishes on the desk, but also ready-made washing water and a bowl of tea. Yuan Shan stepped forward and poured water, and after the two of them had cleaned their faces, they rinsed their mouths. After thinking about it, he turned around and poured two more bowls of hot tea.

Wu Ze did not get water and rice for a day and a night, and Dongcheng gnawed dry cakes for four or five days. At the moment, where can the two of them take care of the rules, and then they will "coo dong dong" and drink a clean light.

After the two put down the tea bowl, Jiugongzi Fang asked lightly, "Huo Yanyi is gone?" ”

Although this sentence is a question, the meaning of certainty is extremely heavy.

After washing, Dongcheng didn't use a towel, and at this time, I don't know whether it was water or cold sweat on my face, and a drop of it went straight to the placket: "Yes, because of recent days, Huo Yanyi and Xie Niangzi hide in the house every day to play, and the servants think it's okay, how do you know...... He was also lost six days ago. Speaking of this, this person's face almost turned purple, and he held back for a long time before he said again: "The servant and Fengtai searched for the night and night, and searched for hundreds of miles ....... ”

Needless to say, after rummaging for a hundred miles, no one was found, and the three of Dongcheng and Fengtai knew that something was wrong, so they came to Xindu to find the ninth prince to report. When he couldn't find him in Qiaoju, this person went to the Privy Council to find Tian Jin again.

Huo injured a wife and three concubines, plus sixteen famous concubines, and dozens of nameless beauties, a total of two sons and four women. Among them, the sister-in-law Huo Yanyi is still normal, the other concubine has long and short legs, and she limps when she walks, and the other four daughters are either stupid or ugly.

It is precisely because of this that the ninth prince is sure that Huo will return to Yuyang, and he is sure that Huo is reluctant to give up this single seedling.

I originally wanted to pinch this lone seedling in my hand, which was to pinch Huo Sheng's life, but now ...... The plan can't keep up with the changes, and it's a step too late after all.

The rain that had ceased in the morning suddenly became heavier again. The raindrops the size of beans "snapped" and smashed on the roof, like thousands of troops and horses rushing to the house, and like the sound of the mountain beating the war drums of the four directions.

Several people in the room bowed their heads, all holding their breath.

A moment later.

A room full of people hung their heads, and the ninth prince could only name: "Wu Ze, doesn't Lord Tian have anything to say?" ”

This man's voice is still low and soothing, still leisurely and calm, and there is even a faint taste of carelessness in everyone's ears.

This time, everyone dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

Wu Xue took half a step forward, bowed down and said, "Young man, Lord Tian...... I want my son to hurry up and think about it. ”

In fact, Tian Jin's original words at that time were, "Please, master, don't catch cats and mice anymore, just close the net quickly when you've played enough!" ”

This kind of words, how dare Wu Ze copy them as they are?

This person bowed his head and shrunk his shoulders, although the ninth prince couldn't see his strange face, he could hear that he changed his words halfway.

The ninth prince narrowed Danfeng's eyes and ordered: "After an hour, you go to see Lord Tian." He ordered him to order the detention of the families and children of the county guards, city gate guards, and officials, and no one should be left behind. Go! ”

Huo Tingyi ran away, why did he detain the family members of the county guard, and returned ...... And children? Not only Wu Ze was dumbfounded, but the four of Yuanshan, Mengshen and Wurong Dongcheng were also all mushy in the first place.

It's just that no matter how "paddle paste" is, no one dares to question the master. Wu Ze bowed and bowed, and obediently responded.

After ordering this sect, Jiugongzi's eyes rolled and he looked at Dongcheng and ordered: "There is a case, this matter is done, and the three of you will make up for it." ”

The things arranged by the master were not done well, and Dongcheng was already holding back his anger in his heart, and he didn't want to think about it at the moment and said, "Son, and command." ”

"Hmm." Jiu Gongzi raised his hand and pinched the teacup, only to feel that the heat was transmitted to his fingertips, and it was very comfortable. felt comfortable, and his voice softened: "Tomorrow, I will sneak into the land and find out how many households and how many people there are." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then said: "We must also closely investigate when the Zhao family's ship will arrive, how many people will go there, and how many more people will come back." Got it? ”

When people go to greet their relatives, there will naturally be more people when they come back. Not to mention the bride, the bride's maid, her servant, her servant...... Which noble girl doesn't marry with hundreds of dozens?
