Missing
"Chu Ling......" Qin Liao muttered.
In the Weiguo Palace, Shen Huai and others were in full swing preparing for the upcoming marriage, but they didn't think that Xiliang was about to make a fuss at this time.
"Strange, why hasn't my brother sent a reply yet?" Yu Yao sat under a locust tree, staring at the scenery a little farther away, and whispered.
"What's wrong?" Qi Xun saw the person sitting under the tree at a glance, and when he saw her lost consciousness, he walked over and asked.
Yu Yao frowned slightly and said, "I sent a letter to my brother half a month ago, and it stands to reason that this letter should have been sent back early, but I haven't received a reply from my brother until today." β
Qi Xun comforted in his heart: "Maybe something is delayed on the road, you don't have to worry too much." β
"But......" Yu Yao still wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, what Qi Xun said was not unreasonable.
Maybe my brother was busy with affairs and wrote to her later, so she would have waited a little longer.
"Your royal brother is going to get married in the next few days?" A handsome woman leaned against the fence and looked at the person standing in front of her.
Qi Yuan snorted and took half a step back.
This woman is a person who can break a chair with his bare hands, and it is better for him to stay away from her, lest her skull be shattered.
"I haven't thanked you for defending me last time." Speaking of this, Gong Yanshan's expression was a little complicated.
She never thought that the person who hated her the most on weekdays would choose to speak out to defend her.
Qi Yuan coughed lightly and said with some embarrassment: "I was drunk that night, and in the end, I bothered the eldest brother and a few of them to clean up the aftermath for me." β
"Then I should thank you." Gong Yanshan stood up straight and arched her hand at Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan was even more uncomfortable.
In fact, he remembered that Gong Yanshan was not like this when he was young, but for some reason the longer he grew and became more and more crooked. From a soft little girl who wore a double-ring bun when she was a child and softly called her brother, she has now been able to break wooden chairs with her bare hands...... Woman.
But the only thing that hasn't changed is that Gong Yanshan is still the same as when he was a child, and likes to follow him and talk to him as always.
But Qi Yuan had seen her force value, and suddenly he was a little afraid. So the two of them became more and more distant day by day, and Gong Yanshan also noticed Qi Yuan's changes, and began to alienate him day by day.
She was originally from a family of military generals, and she has been dancing with knives and guns since she was a child. Most of the other girls would, but she wouldn't. As a result, she didn't have many close friends in the royal city who could speak, especially after Qi Yuan alienated her.
Gong Yanshan turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait." Qi Yuan looked at her lonely back when she left, his heart touched, and he suddenly shouted.
"I know there's a family that has a particularly delicious pastry, would you like to come with me?" To be honest, Qi Yuan was a little unconfident in his heart.
He deliberately distanced himself from her, and she didn't look at it. And now that he has invited her to go out with him, she will not refuse......
Gong Yanshan's movements paused, and she looked back at Qi Yuan in disbelief, "Me?" β
Qi Yuan turned his head away from her, and muttered, "Naturally, it's you." β
Gong Yanshan hooked her lips and smiled, "Then let's go." β
Time flickered, and another three days passed.
On this day, Yu Wenzha was in Shen Huai's hall, choosing the jewelry to wear on the wedding day with her. I didn't want Yu Yao to rush in with the palace maid.
"What's going on?" Yu Wenzha looked at Yu Yao with fine sweat on his forehead and an anxious face.
Yu Yao was in no mood to respond to her words at the moment, she hurried to Shen Huai with her steps, "Ah Huai, something happened to Xiliang!" β
Shen Huai frowned and put down a box containing jewelry in his hand, and asked out loud, "What's wrong with Xiliang?" β
"Someone in the DPRK staged a coup d'Γ©tat, intending to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, my brother and they have escaped from the royal city at this moment, and the situation in the DPRK and China is now in chaos."
Shen Huai's pupils shrank, "What about Yi Yan?" β
Yu Yao shook her head weakly, "My brother's reply to me didn't mention it, it should be missing." β
Shen Huai unconsciously clenched the hem of his skirt.
"Did you notify Qi Xun?"
Yu Yao shook his head again, "At this time, he should still be in the court, so I will come to you first." β
Shen Huai was silent for a while, and after a moment she got up and went to the inner hall.
Yu Wenzha and Yu Yao followed in.
I saw Shen Huai spread a piece of rice paper on the table, holding a brush in his hand, dipping it in ink, and writing with a pen.
"Huai, what are you doing here?" Yu Yao looked at her puzzled.
"Write to my people and ask them to investigate the situation in Xiliangzhong as soon as possible. If necessary, see if you can find your brother or ...... Smoke-prone. β
Although the woman had no feelings for her, she felt her heart.
Yu Yao nodded again and again.
She was very well protected when she was in the boudoir, and even if she is now in the country, she is not very well protected. She had never experienced anything like this, and when something happened, she couldn't do anything but be anxious and worried.
This made Yu Yao feel very frustrated.
After Shen Huai wrote the letter and asked people to send it out, he got up and went to the imperial study.
Yu Yao went with her.
Yuwenzha said to Shen Huai and went to find Mo Yun to see if he had anyone stationed in Xiliang.
"Huai?" Qi Rin saw Shen Huai waiting outside the imperial study as soon as he saw it, and he was a little surprised.
"I have something to tell you." Shen Huai walked over with a solemn expression and pulled Qi Rin over.
Qi Rin saw that her expression was a little different from usual, so she didn't say anything at the moment, and was obediently pulled away by her.
When he arrived in a no-man's land, Shen Huai told him about Xiliang.
Qi Rin was also surprised after hearing this.
"I ordered someone to rush to Xiliang immediately to see if I could find your mother's whereabouts."
When something like this happened, Qi Rin naturally couldn't stand idly by.
Shen Huai nodded a little absentmindedly.
She actually wants to go back to Xiliang in person, but the wedding date is approaching......
Shen Huai pursed his lips and did not say what he thought in his heart.
When she returned to the dormitory, Qi Rin saw that she was still not in a state, and couldn't help but say a few words of comfort.
Shen Huai shook his head and signaled that he was fine.
"Do you want to go to Xiliang?" Qi Rin suddenly asked.
Shen Huai looked up at Qi Rin in surprise.
The corners of Qi Rin's mouth rose slightly, he had been with her for so long, and he couldn't guess what she was thinking in her heart.
"I thought about it...... But now ......"
Qi Rin waited quietly for Shen Huai to finish speaking.
"If you want to go, I will go to Bingming's father and mother to postpone the marriage."
Shen Huai was really shocked by Qi Rin at this moment.
She didn't expect him to be so indulgent to her.
Shen Huai knew how much effort he had spent on this wedding, and now because of her, Qi Rin was an understatement.
"She is your blood relative, so what's wrong with the delay in marriage, you won't run."
At night, Qi Wen Zhao and Yan Yu also learned what happened in Xiliang. Regarding Shen Huai's idea, the two of them unexpectedly did not object.
"Go ahead, if you don't go this time, maybe it will become your guilt in the future." Yan Yu looked at Shen Huai lovingly and spoke gently.
Qi Wenzhao didn't say anything, but just gave a talisman to Qi Rin.
Looking at the talisman lying quietly in Qi Rin's palm, Shen Huai had mixed feelings in his heart.
When he was about to leave the palace gate, Shen Huai bowed deeply to the two, and then took Qi Rin's hand and disappeared into the dark night.
Regarding the delay of the marriage of the two and rushing to Xiliang, Yu Yao learned about it in a few days. She originally wanted to go with her, but Shen Huai and Qi Xun didn't agree, so she could only give up.
Going to Xiliang is full of dangers and difficulties. If she goes, I'm afraid that not only will it not be able to play any role, but it will backfire, dragging down Shen Huai and Qi Rin.
"Ah Huai, you should be careful in everything." Yu Yao stood under the carriage and said nervously.
Shen Huai nodded, said goodbye to her, Yu Wenzha and the others, and turned around and entered the carriage.
Due to the urgency of Xiliang's affairs, Shen Huai and Qi Rin didn't bring much stuff with them on this trip, and they traveled lightly and briefly, day and night.
Until two days later, a hurried sound of horses' hooves sounded.
Qi Rin lifted the curtain of the car in an instant and looked back.
I saw Zhaohui wearing a dark power suit, with a wipe on his forehead, looking at the carriage of the two of them with a smile.
"......" Qi Rin.
Shen Huai, who was sitting in the carriage, saw Qi Rin's body as if he was frozen there and wouldn't move, so he couldn't help but poke his head out and look back.
Then the two men froze in unison.
"Huai." Zhao Hui smiled and beckoned to Shen Huai.
"Why are you here? What about Qi Han? Shen Huai frowned and asked.
Zhao Hui rode his horse to the side of the two, "Yi Yan is kind to me, this time Xiliang Crack suffered this difficulty, I want to go." β
"Qi Han agreed?" Shen Huai subconsciously looked behind her, but he didn't see Qi Han's shadow.
"How could he agree?"
"What about you?" Shen Huai's eyes looked at Zhaohui a little subtle.
"Knock him out, and I'll come out." Zhao Hui replied with a smile.
Qi Rin followed closely and looked at her with a subtle look.
In this way, another summoning emblem was added to the itinerary.
In his early years, Zhao Hui was a person who wandered around and was experienced in the wilderness. With her, Shen Huai and Qi Rin avoided a lot of trivial things along the way.
"After waiting here, it should be the royal city of Xiliang." Zhao Hui grabbed the reins and looked at the wall with a complicated expression.
At this time, the city walls were full of soldiers, and the city gates were also full of soldiers patrolling back and forth. All this shows the tension of the situation in Xiliang Wangcheng at this moment.
Shen Huai and Qi Rin dressed up in disguise, and it turned out that Jing Yuan and Bu Shao, who were following them, were standing beside the two of them with low eyebrows, looking docile and pure.
In the eyes of those armorers, they were an ordinary couple.
Shen Huai made up another explanation, saying that he had a seriously ill elder in the city, and several of them were now rushing to see her for the last time.
