So after coming to the restaurant, the group of four became five, Ruqing also joined the team, and Shen Ya was originally fortunate to follow along, but Ruqing was rejected on the grounds that a weak scholar might be holding back.

Thinking that after they left the Prince's Mansion, the emperor and Feng Bailin's people would definitely send someone to investigate, so they secretly left the restaurant.

I wanted to take advantage of the night to hide for a while, but as soon as the shadow turned his head, he saw the pursuers who came to search.

"The shop over there is open, let's hide over there."

In a hurry, An Xiabai led people to break into a small shop on the side of the road.

"Who are you?"

Just as they were evading the search of the pursuers, a woman suddenly came out of the backyard, and saw that she was beautiful, plump, and holding something in her hand.

If Zhang Xiaodong or Liu Fengfeng were present at this time, they would definitely be able to recognize the identity of the woman at first sight, she was the young widow Hu Hua who was rescued from the cottage when Lu Li exterminated the mountain bandits.

"It's you!"

By the light of the lamp, Hu Hua immediately recognized An Xiabai.

Afraid that she would shout and make a mistake, and An Xiabai didn't recognize Hu Hua at all, Ruqing directly knocked people unconscious.

The sound inside the shop successfully disturbed the people who were busy in the backyard, Yang Xiao raised his eyebrows, took a rag from the shelf to wipe his hands, and walked out of the backyard at the same time.

She was shocked when she saw Hu Hua lying on the ground, as well as An Xiabai and others, but after all, she was a businessman, and her brain was more flexible than ordinary people, so she quickly reacted.

"Mrs. Lu, you come with me first."

Out of appreciation for An Xiabai, Yang Xiao decisively chose to invite people into the inner courtyard.

An Xiabai thanked him gratefully.

"You're welcome, we're friends, the last time Mrs. Lu came to my shop to buy something, didn't we say we wanted to make friends." Yang Xiao smiled disapprovingly, and personally poured a cup of tea for all the guests, "By the way, Mrs. Lu, what is going on with you, why did you appear in my shop in the middle of the night, and stun the guys in the shop, are you hiding from someone like this?" ”

Ruqing was stimulated by these words and stood up directly from her position.

Her vigilance made her stare at Yang Xiao with burning eyes.

If it weren't for An Xiabai to stop her, I'm afraid she would have stepped forward to knock Yang Xiao out by now.

"It's all my own." An Xiabai pulled Ruqing to sit down again, and said to Yang Xiao with an embarrassed smile, "This matter is a long story, mainly because of our dispute with the royal family. ”

Then she told her about the royal family in a rough way.

Ruqing took the case: "This dog emperor is inevitably too much!" Ordinary people know that they have to follow the rules of etiquette, but he is good, the higher his status, the more unscrupulous he is! If he is in front of him now, I have to take a knife and cut him into eight pieces to make Xia Bai angry! ”

Although Ruqing's words were a little rough, everyone thought so.

Especially Yang Xiao, who has long been dissatisfied with the current system, nodded firmly: "Miss Sheng is right, this matter is indeed too much for the royal family, General Lu is working hard for the court at the border at this time, but they are in a comfortable environment, not only do they respect Mrs. Lu, but they also dare to do some obscene and shameless deeds, which is really shameless!"

The indignant appearance of the two of them made An Xiabai's heart warm slightly.

"By the way, Mrs. Lu, what are your plans now, have you thought about where you want to go in the future?" After complaining indiscriminately, Yang Xiao suddenly remembered the most important question at the moment.

"We haven't thought about it yet, we just know that we have to leave the capital."

Yang Xiao knocked on the table, took a piece of jade pendant from his waist and handed it to An Xiabai's hand: "This jade pendant is exclusive to our Yang family, you can take my jade pendant to the Yang family for refuge, although our family is not a prominent family, but it is very measured in this kind of matter, as long as you get to the Yang family, they will protect you." ”

An Xia's white eyes lit up slightly: "Thank you, Miss Yang." ”

"No thanks, everyone is a friend, as the saying goes, when you see a stranger on the road, you have to draw a knife to help, let alone a friend?"

Yang Xiao's heroism made Ruqing deeply admired.

She walked quickly to Yang Xiao's side, smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "We have all written down this kindness, and if we have the opportunity in the future, we will definitely repay her." ”

For the sake of insurance, An Xiabai and the others decided to set off overnight.

Before leaving, Yang Xiao took out a few pieces of armor from the warehouse and handed them to them, along with a letter.

"What is this letter?"

"It's my handwritten letter." Yang Xiao said with a smile, "I'm afraid that a jade pendant will be handed over, and they won't believe it, so I wrote this handwritten letter, and when you get to Yang's house, hand over the letter and the jade pendant, they will definitely protect you, I will pay more attention to the movements of the royal family here in the capital, and when the limelight passes, I will send a letter to you." ”

Yang Xiao's behavior is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to them.

An Xiabai thanked him a few more times, and finally left with Yang Xiao's wishes for a safe journey.

Besides, on the side of the palace, the chasing soldiers sent did not find An Xiabai in the prince's mansion, and the fact that they did not catch the two children aroused the emperor's anger.

He was afraid that he would not be able to control the matter of An Xiabai for a while, so he was particularly concerned about this matter, and summoned all the relevant people overnight, even King Li.

"Dare to ask the imperial brother, the Lu family, and the restaurant have all been searched?"

"Found it." The emperor shook his head with a complicated expression, only to feel a deep sense of powerlessness slowly spreading in his heart, "A good person will lose it if he says it, how will I explain to General Lu in the future, and when he returns to Beijing in the near future, what face will I have to see him?" ”

The Emperor's chagrin spread to all corners of the Imperial Study.

Everyone looked at each other, and when they thought that Lu Li was now in the hands of the army, they all had a creepy feeling.

King Li glanced at the crown prince not far away: "Brother Huang, I heard that the person disappeared in the prince's mansion, have you ever thought that this was done by His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.

Before the emperor could react to what King Li meant, the queen stood up.

"Your Royal Highness, your words are biased, the crown prince has been handling court affairs in the palace today, and even when the palace is on fire, he doesn't even have time to go back, dare to ask him how busy he is, how to smuggle Mrs. Lu away without knowing it? Also, just now the emperor didn't say that the fire in the Prince's Mansion was related to Mrs. Lu's disappearance, how did you know that the person must have disappeared in the Prince's Mansion? ”

King Li was stunned by what the queen said.

When I finally reacted and wanted to refute it, I was asked by her again.

"Isn't it a bit strange that His Royal Highness is so aware of the development of the situation?"

The implication is that King Li has something to do with An Xiabai's disappearance.

King Li, who couldn't refute it, gritted his silver teeth, turned his head and knelt down in front of the emperor: "What the younger brother said just now is just hearsay, and the younger brother has nothing to do with the disappearance of Mrs. Lu. ”

"Hearsay also dares to speak in front of the emperor, and His Royal Highness King Li's behavior is too indecent." The queen snorted coldly and sneered.

King Li's heart was full of anger, but he had to swallow it in his stomach because of the identity of the other party.

Knowing that the queen would do such a thing for the crown prince, he shouldn't have slandered and provoked in front of her, what a mistake!

Seeing that King Li was already at a disadvantage, and the queen was still unrelenting, the emperor had a faint headache: "Don't talk about it, instead of having time to argue here, it's better to think about how to find Mrs. Lu, the more this matter drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to the border situation, and General Lu, if he knows that his wife is missing in the capital, what will it be?" I want you to find her in the shortest possible time, at any cost. ”

After the emperor left these words, he threw up his sleeves and left the imperial study.

Suddenly, there were only a few people left who were worried about it.

The crown prince and King Li were worried about An Xiabai's whereabouts, and at the same time, Mo Simin, who was in the queen's bedroom, was also worried.

Originally, she just wanted to go out to inspect the situation, but she couldn't help but say that she was detained here by the queen, and the other party also ordered that she was not allowed to come and go at will, which caused her to sit in the room and worry.

"I don't know how Xia Bai is now."

Mo Simin furrowed his brows and said such a sentence with emotion.

"Did you let the people go?"

The sudden sound frightened her enough, and when she turned her head suddenly, she saw the queen standing at the door, and two maids came with her.

"Who did I prevent?" Mo Simin asked in confusion.

She didn't seem to be lying, out of so many days of understanding Mo Simin, the queen believed Mo Simin's words: "Mrs. Lu disappeared in the fire in the Prince's Mansion, and her whereabouts have not been found yet, I thought you knew, so I came over to ask, and now it seems that you should be unaware." ”

"I don't know." The anxiety in Mo Simin's heart became deeper and deeper, "How did Xia Bai disappear, have you ever found a clue." ”

Her emotions are usually written on her face and are generally not hidden, so the queen became more and more convinced of her ignorance, she smiled and took Mo Simin's hand, and pretended to be gentle: "Simin, our daughter's family, don't worry about those things, Mrs. Lu is missing and someone else will look for her, we just need to wait for news at home." Compared to this, I think your relationship with the prince is more important. ”

Out of respect for his elders, Mo Simin said yes with a stiff expression.

"Let me ask you, how have you been menstruating lately, is it normal?"

Menstrual affairs?

Mo Simin was stunned for a moment, and then her whole face turned red: "During this time, the menstrual affairs have been very hidden, thank you for your concern." ”

"You, why are you still like a child when you get married?" The queen smiled and patted the back of her hand gently, "You and the prince are so affectionate, and now that you have been married for a while, it is not right that the menstrual period is normal." When you get along with the prince in the future, remember to work harder. ”

Mo Simin's face suddenly turned red as if he was about to drip blood.
