Chapter 398: Missing

In the matter of helping his prince to make the princess happy, the old housekeeper can be regarded as heartbroken. But after hearing his words, Xiao Chumo just sighed and shook his head: "That's it, let her calm down." ”

"But ......"

The housekeeper still wanted to persuade him for a sentence or two, but the words had just come out, and after seeing Xiao Chumo's expression, he finally gave up the idea and didn't continue.

When Yu Panxi returned home, he originally waited until after dark to rush over from the Yu family's old house, and later went to the study to ask Xiao Chumo about Xingtian Sword, and now it was already time to rest. Xiao Chumo had a conflict with Yu Panxi, and it was not good to be in the same room with her again, so as not to annoy her again, so he went to sleep in the guest room in the courtyard next door.

Because he had something hidden in his heart, in fact, Xiao Chumo didn't sleep well this whole night, at most he closed his eyes and squinted shallowly for a few hours. He had just woken up the next morning, and was thinking about whether to go to Yu Panxi to persuade him again, but before he could get out of the door, the old housekeeper had already come to look for him first.

More precisely, he trotted all the way.

Xiao Chumo couldn't help frowning a little: "What happened, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

There are not many things that can make the old housekeeper so anxious, and there should only be the power on Situ Ye's side at the moment. But the latter only took the Xingtian Sword from him yesterday, and it has been determined that he "lives soon", and he should not come to the palace to make trouble again in a short time.

Seeing that Xiao Chumo was still so calm and calm, the old housekeeper was anxious, and couldn't help but quickly say the purpose of coming to him: "Lord, the princess is gone!" The subordinates have searched the entire palace, but there is still no trace of the princess. ”

"How so?!"

The old housekeeper's words were enough to shock Xiao Chumo. Thinking that they were still unhappy last night because of the Xingtian Sword and looking for help, Xiao Chumo's face couldn't help but change, and he had a faint guess in his heart.

"When did you find out that the princess was missing?"

The old butler said truthfully: "About a quarter of an hour before this, Yinling went to serve the princess and got up, but suddenly found that there was no one in the room at all, and the quilt was still folded well, and there was no trace of anyone sleeping at all!" ”

"Oops!"

Hearing the old housekeeper's answer, Xiao Chumo secretly screamed that it was not good, and he didn't even bother to wear his coat, so he hurriedly walked out, "I'll go to Panxi's room to have a look, you hurry up and find a few guards who were in charge of patrolling last night!" ”

The former didn't know what he was going to do, but the anxious look on his face made the butler realize the seriousness of this matter, so he quickly answered, and hurriedly summoned the guards who patrolled last night.

Xiao Chumo hurried to Yu Panxi's room, and saw Yinling and Chu Lu guarding outside from a distance, and he was so anxious.

As soon as they saw Xiao Chumo coming, the two hurriedly surrounded them, and their words were full of worry and eagerness: "Lord Wang, Niangniang, Niangniang is gone, what can I do!" ”

It was Yinling who spoke, this girl had experienced so many things with Yu Panxi, although she had gained a lot of courage, but at the moment she had never experienced this situation, which made her cry unconsciously. If it weren't for the first dew to accompany her to comfort her, I'm afraid that the tears would have been unable to help falling.

Although Xiao Chumo doesn't have a good impression of a crying woman, Yinling is still just a little girl in the end, and she has been with Yu Panxi since she was a child, and she is almost like a sister. Therefore, in the end, he was not as ruthless as he was with Xiao Fengwan at the beginning, but asked a little more patiently: "Did you hear any strange noises last night?" Or did you see a suspicious figure? ”

Although Yinling's voice was a little choked, because Xiao Chumo asked about Yu Panxi, she still thought about it carefully, and then shook her head and said, "No, last night Niangniang specially ordered that there should be no vigil, and the slave went back to her room." But my room with Chulu is in this courtyard, and I can hear anything that is wrong, but everything was normal last night. ”

In order to facilitate the care of Yu Panxi, Yinling and Chulu's room were not next to the other maids in the house, but directly divided the two side rooms in Yu Panxi's courtyard to them. Both rooms are close to the gate of the courtyard, and everyone has to pass by whether they go out or come in.

It stands to reason that even if Silver Bell slept too deeply last night and didn't hear the sound in the yard. But Chu Lu's hearing was more sensitive than her, and she was much more vigilant than her, and after hearing the former's words, she also nodded, indicating that Yinling's statement was indeed correct.

"Well, if you noticed something was wrong, you should have noticed it last night."

Xiao Chumo sighed and gave up the idea of looking for clues from these two people. It's just that since there is no movement, it means that no one is struggling, so it is very likely that Yu Panxi took the initiative to leave the courtyard.

"Have you seen Panxi's room? What's different? ”

If she really left by herself, she should have left some kind of information, or someone to say something. She's not the kind of person who would make others worry about her just because she's angry.

This time it was Chu Lu's turn and shook his head: "We didn't pay attention, and after we found out that the princess was missing, we quickly notified the housekeeper." ”

Yinling's girl has always been careful, and she even remembers which pair of clothes Yu Panxi likes to match with which pair of shoes she likes on weekdays. But if you encounter something about Yu Panxi's comfort, you will be in a hurry like this, how can you bother to observe carefully? Even if no one slept on the bed in the house, he still showed a hurried glance and told the housekeeper.

Xiao Chumo nodded thoughtfully, and after making sure that the two maids didn't know any more clues, he walked directly into Yu Panxi's house. The inside of the room was as clean and tidy as ever, as he had just come to his conclusion, and there was no trace of struggle.

Ginling and Hatsuru followed him into the room, and after watching him walk around, he personally pulled out a pressed letter from under the rouge box on the dresser.

The letter was not sealed, and the words "Husband and Gentleman Personally Enlightened" were written on it. It seems that this letter was actually put by Yu Panxi early in the morning, but both of them only cared about looking for her traces outside, but ignored it.

Last night it was supposed to be the turn of the silver bell vigil, but Yu Panxi let her go back early in the morning, so the dresser was a little messy. Hair accessories and various rouge boxes were stacked together, if Xiao Chumo hadn't walked to the dresser to inspect them, he probably wouldn't have been able to find them at a glance.
