On the other side, Xie Yutang was sitting in his study, his face full of impatience. Since Chi Wan was kidnapped and taken to the Prince's Mansion, he has been anxious every day, for fear that Chi Wan will be bullied.

Although he secretly asked King Chu to help him say hello, he still couldn't let go of it in his heart.

He thought of many ways to steal Chi Wan out, but he denied them one by one, first, the other party was the prince after all, and he couldn't compete with him with his own identity; The second is that the other party will definitely not give up, and if he tries to catch Chi Wan, it will be a great harassment to Chi Wan's daily life.

Wave after wave, Xie Yutang's attendant outside came in reluctantly, and cautiously tentatively said, "Master...... The small ones have something to report. ”

"What's the matter, tell me quickly!"

Xie Yutang's tone was very impatient, which made the attendant even more afraid to speak, his voice was as small as a mosquito, and he said, "Miss Chi, she ...... Missing. ”

"What did you say!" Xie Yutang stepped forward in three steps and two steps forward, grabbed the attendant's collar, and asked rhetorically, "You said that Chi Wan is missing?" ”

"It's news from the prince's side, and now the prince is searching the whole city for Miss Chi's whereabouts." The attendant shook out all the things he knew and told Xie Yutang.

Xie Yutang was depressed, and he couldn't wait to go to the prince's mansion to talk to him now, but it was impossible.

"Find, find me, and find her, you must find her whereabouts!" Xie Yutang almost collapsed, and in the days without her, his heart was also adrift, and he was in a panic every day.

After all, Chi Wan had already left the capital overnight, so the prince's idea that she would not be able to escape from the capital alone was wrong, so that he searched the city to no avail.

With the power of the crown prince, Chi Wan can't be found in the capital, either Chi Wan is too good at disguise and too good at hiding, or Chi Wan is no longer in the capital.

The longer the time passed, the more Xie Yutang preferred the latter, so he sent his attendants to inquire about the records of Chi Wan's departure from the city in the days before and after his disappearance, and recorded several suspicious ones.

When the attendant returned to the mansion with his results, he heard that there were two suspicious characters: one was a carriage that drove to Xicheng the night before Chi Wan disappeared, and the carriage was taken care of so there was nothing in it.

The second is that after Ji Wan's disappearance, a woman about her age left on the pretext of going out to seek medical treatment, the woman wore a veil and a cloak, saying that she was dressed like this because she was sick, and the direction of her trip was Pingcheng.

Pingcheng, looking for a doctor...... It seems that the second woman is closely related to Chi Wan, and when Xie Yutang was about to leave for Pingcheng, he suddenly reacted, if she relied on Chi Wan's own strength, how could she escape?

"Let's go, go to Xicheng, go immediately!" Xie Yutang ignored the three-seven-twenty-one, got up and was about to go to the stable in the house to lead the horse.

"Master, this is too abrupt, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has also asked you to discuss it tomorrow......"

"Push it away, just say that I have an urgent matter and must go to Xicheng, His Royal Highness the King of Chu will understand." After saying that, Xie Yutang brushed his sleeves and left, leaving the attendant stunned in place.

This time, Xie Yutang was a private operation, and he couldn't bring more people to avoid being eye-catching, so he only brought two subordinates he trusted to be responsible for finding out the news, and the rest was all on his own.

Because Xicheng is mountainous, and there is another small city to get to Xicheng, so Xie Yutang planned to rest in the small city for a while after leaving the capital, and sent one of his attendants to inquire about Chi Wan in advance.

"Master, I inquired, the direction of the carriage at that time was Xicheng, about the southwest."

"Okay, I'll leave tomorrow."

In this way, Xie Yutang inquired all the way and moved forward, gradually getting closer and closer to Chi Wan. It's just that Lin Nanyi knew about it, although Lin Nanyi is now in the folk Taoguang, but he doesn't want to miss any news about the capital.

He relied on the token on his body to let his attendants meet his people in the capital, and said not to reveal his identity, but to keep passing him news about the capital.

No, his entourage brought today's latest news: "Master, it is very strange that there is a person in Pingcheng today, he came from the capital, and every person inquired about the whereabouts of the shopkeeper of the pool. ”

Lin Nanyi raised his eyes and said, "Inquire about the shopkeeper of the pool?" ”

"Yes, he seems to be in a hurry, he wants to find a woman named Chi Wan, and the portrait of the person he shows to others is indeed the shopkeeper of Chi."

The people from the capital are in Lin Nanyi's heart, except for the King of Chu, there are basically no good people, and this person who inquired about Chi Wan's whereabouts was naturally planned by him among the bad guys.

Once he also tried to inquire about Chi Wan's past, but she always changed the topic or hastily brought him, and the only thing he knew was that Chi Wan revealed that she was also from the capital.

Obviously, there must have been something in the capital that Chi Wan didn't want to recall, so she would resist like this. Then before he can't find out whether the other party is friend or foe, he must not be able to find Ji Wan.

"Go find a way, don't let him find him, and then ask about his identity."

"Yes, understood."

After Lin Nanyi's attendants retreated, they immediately acted secretly, his master had a lot of contacts and news networks in this West City, and he asked them to spread some wrong information to confuse Xie Yutang's hearing and hearing.

Sure enough, Xie Yutang, who had been walking in the right direction, suddenly made a ninety-degree turn and ran in the other direction, and while he was walking and inquiring, he suddenly found that his news was broken, and he couldn't find any news about Chi Wan around.

"How so!" Xie Yutang was very angry, seeing that success was already close at hand, and now it was equivalent to giving up all his previous achievements, but he Duan Ran would not give up easily.

He relied on the memory of when he came to go back and began to continue to inquire, but all the news was always intercepted halfway through, which couldn't help but make Xie Yutang crazy.

"Who is secretly against me!" He shouted unwillingly, trying to vent in this way.

In the face of Ji Wan's affairs, he always loses his mind many times, and this time is the same. He was almost about to collapse, and he couldn't wait to expose his identity to exert pressure, or to transfer troops to give Xicheng a good break.

But what little reason he had left didn't allow him to do so, Xie Yutang hugged his head in annoyance, he felt so helpless for the first time in his life.

"Wan'er, where are you, Wan'er."

On Lin Nanyi's mansion, the attendants perfectly blocked Xie Yutang again and again, and received a lot of praise from Lin Nanyi.

The reason why he did this was not all because of Ji Wan, but also for himself. The capital is not as good as Xicheng, and many people may recognize him as the ninth prince, but he doesn't want to be arrested back to the palace now.

So in the final analysis, Lin Nanyi did this in order not to expose herself, and Chi Wanmo just avoided it by the way. Seeing that she didn't miss the capital, Lin Nanyi guessed that she might not be an important person at all.

On Chi Wan's side, she didn't know anything about this matter, Lin Nanyi was like a wall, blocking all the information and not revealing a little news to Chi Wan.

But Chi Wan has also had troubles recently, and recently her flavor building has been jointly suppressed by several restaurants around her.

This matter still has to start with a rumor, that day a shopkeeper secretly came to make a small report with Chi Wan and told her: "Shopkeeper Chi, what should I do if someone says bad things about our flavor building outside?" ”

"Who's talking?" Chi Wan was puzzled, could it be that some customers felt that the dishes were not delicious.

"It's everyone who is saying," the shopkeeper said, "They don't know where they heard this kind of thing, saying that the dishes in our flavor building are not fresh, and they use overnight dishes or even leftovers or something." What should I say, you get what you pay for, our dishes are so cheap because the ingredients are not good or something......"

The shopkeeper's tone was a little impulsive, he was really upset for his shopkeeper. Chi Wan is a fair and honest person, how could she do such a hurtful thing, the price is cheap and it is also for everyone to enjoy it, and now it is good, it has become a rumor-mongering weapon for others.

"Shopkeeper, what should I do?"

"It's okay, just let him go." Ji Wan was very light, but she also thought of a strategy in her heart.

The next day, in the name of showing the chef's knife skills in the flavor building, she asked a cook to cut vegetables in front of the guests. After all, the knife work is secondary, and the guests see that the chef has cut the freshest vegetables, as if they have just been plucked from the field, and the message outside is self-defeating.

However, everything finally subsided, and then new rumors came that many of the dishes in the flavor restaurant were copied from another restaurant.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant even came to the door to question Chi Wan in person, but those dishes are being cooked in other hotels, and they are all traditional dishes. All of this is too strong.

Chi Wan was helpless, she received the shopkeeper kindly, and explained to him: "Although the dishes in the flavor building are similar, the taste is definitely different, and the taste must be different." ”

The shopkeeper didn't believe it, and Chi Wan specially asked the guests to try the same dish made by the two and then made a comment. After the guests tasted it, they all nodded and said that the taste was indeed different, and the flavor building was even better.

The shopkeeper insisted on not believing it, and in the end he couldn't help but take a bite, and suddenly found that he had completely failed in the taste, so he had to walk away.

This matter subsided again, but the rumors did not stop, and things happened again and again, challenging Ji Wan's bottom line. In the end, even Chi Wan couldn't bear it, and the people behind it were too much, but if you want to completely eliminate the rumors, what should you do?
