Chapter 221: Foggy Things
After pausing in front of the window for a moment, Gong Mingye asked in a low voice, "What about Bai Mulan?" Is there any news of her? ”
"Again, no." He Chi replied.
There was a moment of silence in the study, and after a while, the palace spoke up again: "Order, everyone will continue to monitor in the same place, and after the palace leaves Yecheng, if you find Mu Bangqing's traces, remember to report to the palace immediately, and you must not take action to startle the snake!"
Remember, when you find her showing up, you have to be followed quietly wherever she goes, and you can't lose her voice again. If she finds that there are Xiyue or Da Liang or other people with mysterious whereabouts following her, and do everything she can to lure away or get rid of those people, she must not be allowed to fall into the hands of those people! ”
"Yes! Subordinates understand! ”
"As for Bai Mulan...... his eyes stared at a white magnolia not far away, Gong Mingye paused before saying: "Her affairs will be put aside for the time being, and there is no need to send someone to inquire about her whereabouts." Of course, if you find out her whereabouts and find her walking around Yecheng, you might as well send someone to pay attention to it by the way, and wait for the palace to come back and deal with it. ”
Bai Mulan has been haunted by the robbery of the Xiangfu Palace in the dark night, and he intuitively feels that this matter is not so simple, Bai Mulan will not be robbed in the Xiangfu anyway, let alone encounter an accident in the woods outside Yecheng.
It's just that although he has some suspicions, it is impossible for him to ask Zhuge Wuwei and Mo Ziqian who are involved in this matter.
He was not blind, he could naturally see that Mo Ziqian's thoughts about Bai Mulan were not ordinary, if he asked Mo Ziqian who the person he saved that day was, Mo Ziqian would not tell the truth.
Moreover, he didn't want to ask subconsciously, in a corner of his heart, there was a kind of timidity and fear that he had never had, afraid of hearing the answer he least wanted to hear from Mo Ziqian's mouth.
The feeling was very light, like a thin silk lingering in his heart, winding into a small white fluff in a corner, as light as a cloud and untouchable, but as heavy as a mountain, it existed in its unique posture.
He had asked himself countless times what the misty thing that was going around his heart was, but even though he thought about it and thought about it, and used his full stomach to learn to attack it, dismantle it, and analyze it, it still existed so openly, weak but tenacious.
Later, he understood what that feeling was, and when he did, he couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
He dared to brave the battlefield and kill the enemy in blood, and he could use his wits to quell the rebellion of the vassal king, he would be afraid and cowardly?!
Later, he confessed, and he "generously" admitted that the suspicious object hidden in his heart was indeed the most despicable thing in his life, or that no man in the world was willing to admit casually - fear.
As for Zhuge Wuwei, over the years, he has kept a certain distance from Zhuge Wuwei from beginning to end, not interfering too much or never interfering in his life. Even if he had always been suspicious of Zhuge Wuwei, he was monitoring the Prime Minister's every move in a specific way, and it was impossible for him to personally run to Zhuge Wuwei as the crown prince to question the robbery.
Therefore, he can only wait for the day when all the truth is revealed.
He Chi took his deep thoughts into his eyes and said solemnly: "Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates know what to do!" ”
Feng's eyes flashed and the dark night of the palace had already woken up from his thoughts, and nodded, "Well, that's all there is to explain in this palace, during the time when this palace is away, everything is done according to the plan!" ”
"Yes! Subordinates understand! ”
Gong Mingye turned around sharply, and immediately strode out of the study, followed by He Chi.
When the two of them walked through the arch into the corridor of the middle courtyard, Mu Jinxiu, who was still gossiping with Ping'er, saw him at a glance, and got up to greet him with a smile.
"Brother Prince, are you done? Are we ready to leave right away? ”
Since the end of Emperor Xiaotian's birthday banquet, Mu Jinxiu has been uneasy in her heart, and she always feels that Gong Mingye's attitude towards her seems to be colder than before.
Although Gong Mingye never seemed to be too enthusiastic about her, she could feel that he treated her differently in some ways.
For example, he rarely asks her out of the house than before.
The weather was pleasant now, and it was a good time to go out in the afternoon, but in the last month, he had never invited her out, as if he had forgotten her presence.
For another example, when he saw her carefully dressed up at this time, there was not the slightest wave in his eyes, let alone the slightest look of surprise, didn't he see that she was different from usual today?
For this trip to the south, for today's meeting, she carefully dressed up, changed the new hairstyle that has been fashionable in Yecheng recently, and wore the lake blue dress he once said she was wearing the best, but he didn't seem to see these at all, and he didn't even praise her.
In his heart, what position was she put in? Could it be that because she lost to Bai Mulan on the night of the birthday banquet and lost to Princess Daliang and the woman from Xiyue, he no longer likes her? He thinks she doesn't deserve him?
The thoughts in his mind jumped away, and when he thought of this, Mu Jinxiu was startled by himself, and his heart shook a few times.
The smile on her face froze for a moment, but she adjusted her state in an instant, and Lianbu moved lightly to the side of Gong Mingye, and her movements naturally and affectionately wanted to hold his arm.
The well-dressed Mu Jinxiu is indeed a lot brighter and more moving than in the past, at least He Chi can see the difference between her today, but for Gong Yingye, she is still the same as before, with gentle appearance and dignified manners, which is very suitable for being a housewife.
Whether it is her background, or her appearance, whether it is a high-ranking official or a famous businessman, any family is willing to accept her as a housewife, but only by his side, she does not need such a her.
What he needs by his side is the golden phoenix, a woman who can bring good luck to the Tiansheng Dynasty and help the palace family seize the world and ascend to the supreme throne.
At the moment when Mu Jinxiu approached her, sensing her intentions, Gong Yingye frowned almost imperceptibly.
Taking two steps forward quietly, he naturally and skillfully avoided Mu Jinxiu's closeness, and said in a cold voice: "Are you ready?" When you're ready, go. ”
The usual indifferent posture, I don't know who he asked, but He Chi has been by his side for many years, and he knows that his attitude towards Bai Mulan has been really strange recently, so he can naturally understand the estranged meaning hidden in his words, and he answered very insightfully: "It's all ready, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can go." ”
