Missing?

At first glance, Zheng Yanqing didn't react to the meaning contained in this sentence.

It is no wonder that in Rongle City, although Duoduo is not the king and hegemon, it can be regarded as a powerful existence. She has the identity of the niece of Rong Le City's well-known bureaucratic Gu Siman, and at the same time, her family has thousands of acres of fertile land and hundreds of warriors under her command. In addition, Mrs. Gao had previously expressed her identity to the local government, so that the government of Rongle City would not run to provoke Duoduo without incident. Duoduo, how can you not see it?

"About seven days ago, Duoduo was invited by Gu Siman to go to the bureaucratic settlement.

Since then, he has not returned...... After about four days, Pei Niangzi felt that something was not right, so she asked me to ask.

When I arrived at the Acquaintance Settlement, Gu Siman told me that Duoduo had left two days earlier.

Pei Niangzi was very anxious, so she sent people to inquire around, and followed the road from Rongle City to the place where the acquaintances lived several times, but there were no clues. So he hurriedly sent me to inform Zheng Gongzi. Pei Niangzi is still near Rongle City, looking for flowers everywhere. ”

Yan Qing's face has changed!

"Why didn't you tell me ...... earlier"

He lingered in the room, and after a while, he said to Xu Xingbo: "You wait for me, I will immediately go down the mountain with you to look for Duoduo." ”

"Brother Yanqing, something happened to Sister Duoduo?"

Wujian took Yanqing's hand and asked in a low voice.

Zheng Yanqingqiang smiled and patted Wuji's head, "Don't worry, Guanyin, Sister Duoduo is so powerful, and her martial arts are so strong, nothing will happen." You obediently heal on the mountain, and you must listen to Sun Zhenren's words. I'll let Slender Waist stay with you, and I'll be back in a few days and bring you something to eat. ”

Innocent obediently agreed.

Zheng Yanqing went to say goodbye to Sun Simiao again, and then called Shangxiong Dahai, with four eyes, and went down the mountain with Xu Xingbo.

"Brother Xu, what's wrong with Rongle City recently?"

Xu Xingbo shook his head and said, "It's not abnormal...... Oh, and after you left last time, an army of officers came to the city. ”

"Officers and soldiers?"

"Well, it is said that he is in charge of guarding Rong Lecang."

"Rong Le Cang?"

Zheng Yanqing really doesn't know when there will be an additional Rongle warehouse in Rongle City.

For the year, he spent most of his time in the mountains. Occasionally going down the mountain, most of them are in the grange, accompanying Pei Cuiyun and Duoduo. He pays more attention to things other than Bashu, but he is not too worried about Rongle City. It's no wonder that as he grows up, the tragedy of the great cause is about to be played.

This is also why when Mrs. Gao and Pei Xingyan left Emei Mountain, why did he ask Pei Xingyan to bring a letter for Fang Xuanling.

Huaxian, Wagang...... Zheng Yanqing really didn't want Xu Shiji to go to Wagang to be a thief.

Because he needs Xu Shiji, maintain a closer relationship with him.

Once Xu Shiji becomes a thief, it is inevitable that one day he will turn his face with Zheng Yanqing. This is by no means what Yanqing wants to see...... Xu Shiji has been in the official school for three years, riding and shooting, and focusing on the art of war.

Rather than stay in Luoyang, where the benefits are complicated, or return home?

Zheng Yanqing really doesn't want to.

He hoped that Xu Shiji would have the opportunity to hone his art of war, so he sent someone to Guancheng County to beg Fang Xuanling to give Xu Shiji a chance.

Of course, Fang Xuanling couldn't use Xu Shiji because of his words, and he would definitely do an investigation.

But Zheng Yanqing believes that Xu Shiji's real gold is not afraid of fire!

paid more attention to things other than Bashu, and Zheng Yanqing didn't even know when Rongle City built a warehouse. It was probably built after the autumn of last year, but at that time, it was a critical time for the treatment of the disease, and Yanqing had not come down the mountain for almost a winter.

When he came down the mountain, the barn was also built.

Yan Qing didn't pay attention to it, and Duo Duo and Cuiyun were more enjoying the happiness of being with Yan Qing, how could they say anything about this?

Xu Xingbo said: "This matter is strange to say, and I don't know why the government wants to build a warehouse in Rongle City."

But come to think of it, it is probably because this is the confluence of Tsing Yi Water and Dushui (Dadu River), and at the same time it is connected to the waterway of Chengdu, so it will build Rongle Cang.

Zheng Gongzi, do you think that Duoduo's disappearance is related to this Rong Le Cang? ”

Zheng Yanqing said: "It is difficult to conclude whether Duoduo is missing, abducted, or disappeared. But this Rongle Cang...... I can't tell. You are right, the location of Rongle City is quite critical in Minshu, and it is not impossible to build a warehouse. It's just that I think...... In this matter, after going back, listen carefully to the clues, and then make a judgment. ”

Xu Xingbo agreed.

The three of them hurried through the night, and in the early morning of the next day, the roar of the crossing could be heard.

Zheng Yanqing suddenly stopped the horse, "Brother Xu, how far is it from Suishan here?" ”

"Suishan!"

Xu Xingbo discerned the direction, and then pointed to the west, "From here to the west, if you don't stop, you should arrive before noon."

Zheng Gongzi, Suishan is a gathering place for acquaintances, why are you asking this? ”

Yan Qing turned his horse's head, "Let's go to Suishan." ”

"Huh?"

Xu Xingbo was stunned, "Don't you go back to Rongle City?" ”

"I'll go back later."

Zheng Yanqing said goodbye, and ordered Xiong Dahai to return to Rongle City first with four eyes.

He said to Xu Xingbo: "Brother Xu, after arriving in Suishan, I am just a little guy next to you. You go to see Gu Siman, and then ask specifically when Duoduo left Suishan. Well, you just said: I heard that Duoduo did not leave Suishan that day. ”

Xu Xingbo was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zheng Yanqing in confusion.

"Zheng Gongzi, you mean ......?"

"I don't know anything."

After Zheng Yanqing finished speaking, he urged the horse to run towards Suishan. Xu Xingbo hurried up, and the two arrived at the base camp of the Suishan acquaintance before noon.

The ancestors of the wingmen were the Xiou and Luoyue people in the pre-Qin period and the Wuhu and Nanyue people in the Han Dynasty.

At that time, it mainly lived in western Guangdong, eastern Guangxi, southern Guizhou and other places, and was later called Baiyue Yiman. During the Yongjia period of the Western Jin Dynasty, the Central Plains was in turmoil, which triggered a wave of Han people moving south that lasted for more than three centuries. At the same time, the indigenous peoples in the Pearl River basin gradually developed from Baiyue to slang, bureaucracy, barbarian and other ethnic groups, and collectively called slang bureaucracy.

The wingman is the branch of the hundred.

It intermingled with the Wuman, Baiman, etc., and gradually spread to the west, so it gradually formed the Xiyuan Bureaucrat and the Huangtong Bureaucracy, mainly living in Guangxi, and had a close relationship with the local slang; The Minshu region is divided into Nanping bureaucrats, which belong to the familiar bureaucrats; There are also flying head wings and Wuwu bureaucrats, which belong to the living bureaucrats. They have a close relationship with the barbarians who live in the world and Yuewang, and gradually become the native natives of Minshu.

The Suishan bureaucracy belongs to a branch of the Nanping bureaucracy.

Gusman was in his early fifties, dressed in a robe, and barefoot.

His voice is very loud and gives people a heroic air.

Zheng Yanqing really did what he said on the road, and after entering Suishan, he didn't say a word. Xu Xingbo and Gu Siman spoke the local language of the bureaucrats, but Yan Qing had been in Minshu for more than a year, and he had already spoken the bureaucratic language. Therefore, he has been standing behind Xu Xingbo with his hands down, and secretly observes Gu Siman.

When Xu Xingbo repeated what Yan Qing said, Gu Si was furious.

"Which bastard thing is this rumor? Brother Xu, I am a sworn brother with Mr. Ha, and Gu Landuo is like my own daughter, how can I harm her? If you don't believe me, you can bring someone to search for it, and if Bone Rando is with me, I'll ......."

Xu Xingbo hurriedly waved his hand, "Du Lao, please don't be angry, I definitely don't believe that you will be bad for Gu Landuo."

I just heard this rumor and didn't know where to look for it, so I ...... Please don't take it to heart. ”

"I'm also very anxious about the disappearance of Bone Rando.

In the past few days, I have mobilized the young people in the clan to inquire about her. It's just that you also know that I'm just an old man of the Suishan bureaucracy, and in some places, I can't forcibly search. In particular, the brothers of the bureaucrats were violent. In two days, I plan to go into the mountains and ask them. Maybe there was some misunderstanding that caused the brothers of the flying head to intercept Gu Landuo. ”

Du Lao is a kind of title for the leader of the wingmen.

For example, the Han people often call their leaders as wingmen and slangs. However, among the clans, they are more accustomed to being called 'all old', or 'inverted old'.

Xu Xingbo hurriedly expressed his gratitude, and talked with Gu Siman for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.

Leaving the tribe of wingmen, Xu Xingbo and Zheng Yanqing walked far away before they reined in the horses.

"Zheng Gongzi, can you get something?"

Zheng Yanqing said: "Gu Siman, he is lying!" ”

"What?"

"When you said that someone saw Duoduo not leaving Suishan, his eyes were a little flustered. Although he deliberately acted angry later, in my opinion, it was more of a loud voice and a cover-up. Brother Xu, if my guess is correct, it was he who deducted Duoduo. ”

"Why?"

Zheng Yanqing scratched his head, also at a loss.

"I really don't know about that. It stands to reason that Gu Siman is right...... He and Mr. Ha have been friends for eight years, and over the past year, he has always taken good care of Duoduo. To say that he has ill will towards Duoduo, I always think it's unlikely. ”

After saying that, he smiled bitterly.

"In this case, let's go back to Rongle City first, and then discuss."

Xu Xingbo nodded, beat Zheng Yanqing, and rushed back to Rongle City in the evening.

The time of Minshu is not the same as that of the Central Plains, and there should be a gap of half an hour, that is, an hour.

In the evening, when Luoyang may have begun to show a dim scene, the sky of Minshu is still very bright. In the distance, the sound of drums and trumpets can be heard from the barracks. A big flag danced in the air, and Zheng Yanqing suddenly reined in outside Rongle City and looked at the barracks.

"Zheng Gongzi ......"

"Ahh

"Let's get into town."

Zheng Yanqing hesitated, and suddenly turned the horse's head, "Brother Xu, you go back first." ”

"What about you?"

"Me? I want to go to the barracks. ”

"Barracks?" Xu Xingbo was stunned, "What are you doing in the barracks?" ”

Zheng Yanqing did not answer, but urged the horse to hurry straight in the direction of the barracks. Xu Xingbo was not very interested in the barracks of the Sui army. But now that Zheng Yanqing has passed, he has to follow behind Yanqing. After all, Duoduo was not found, Zheng Yanqing should not have another accident.

As soon as the two approached the barracks, they heard the small army guarding the door shouting, "Who is coming?" This is an important place in the army, and the name will be reported quickly. ”

Zheng Yanqing hurriedly reined in the war horse and took out a waist card from his arms.

"I am Zheng Yanqing, the captain of the cloud cavalry, and I am here to visit the chief general of the battalion."

"Cloud Rider?"

The small army guarding the door looked at each other, and then a young army stepped forward and took the waist card in Zheng Yanqing's hand.

"Wait here, don't be presumptuous."

After he finished speaking, he took Zheng Yanqing's waist card, hurriedly returned to the gate of the barracks, muttered a few words in a low voice with his companions, and then hurried into the camp.

Xu Xingbo walked to Zheng Yanqing's side and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Zheng Gongzi, what are you doing to visit the barracks?" ”

"I want to know, why did the imperial court build a warehouse in Rongle City."

After Zheng Yanqing finished speaking, he turned over and jumped off the war horse.

At the age of thirteen, he still has a little childishness.

With a delicate face, it was difficult for people to associate him with the cloud cavalry lieutenant among the eight lieutenants of Wusan.

Xu Xingbo didn't know what kind of medicine Yan Qing was selling in this gourd. However, since Yan Qing dismounted, he also had to jump off the war horse.

As soon as he stood firm, he only heard the sound of drums and trumpets in the barracks.

Immediately after, he saw a group of men and horses rushing out of the camp.

The leader of the generals is about the same age as Yan Qing, and he is a young general. He rushed out of the barracks, shouting loudly and excitedly.

"Yanqing, Yanqing, why are you here?"

Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at the young general.

It doesn't matter if you look at it...... Yan Qing's face suddenly showed a look of joy. He handed the reins to Xu Xingbo and stepped forward.

And the young general also reined in the war horse, jumped off the horse, and stepped forward to hug Zheng Yanqing.

"Uncle wrote to say that you have entered Shu...... Why don't you go and see me? ”

Zheng Yanqing laughed, hugged the young general hard, and then pushed it away, looking up and down, "Fengjie, your outfit is really powerful!" ”

That young general is Dou Fengjie, who has been separated from Zheng Yanqing for three years.

Compared with three years ago, Dou Fengjie looks stronger and more cheerful.

Zheng Yanqing never expected that he would meet Dou Fengjie here. In fact, after entering Shu, he also wanted to visit Dou Fengjie.

But Emei Mountain is too far away from Ziyang County!

It is never an exaggeration to describe it as wading through mountains and rivers. In addition, Ziyang County is located in Panshi County (now Zizhong, Sichuan), east of Mianshui.

And Zheng Yanqing has a lot of things on his side, first sending his foothold stable, and then sending Pei Shuying away.

A few days later, Mrs. Gao entered Shu, and he and Duoduo went up to Emei Mountain to find Sun Simiao's whereabouts. When he found Sun Simiao, he funded the repair of the Thunder God Temple and brought him into the mountain. In Pingyue, almost all of them spend time in the mountains, how can they have time to go to Ziyang County to find Dou Fengjie?

But I didn't expect that Dou Fengjie actually came to Rongle City.

"Fengjie, aren't you in Ziyang? How did you come here and dress up in military uniform? ”

Dou Fengjie grinned and said, "I came with my father." ”

"Uncle Dou, also here? Isn't he the lieutenant of Ziyang? ”

"Oh, my father is also the lieutenant of Ziyang County now, and this time I came here to guard Rongle Cang in the name of Duan Zhongkui, the governor of Shu County. Hee-hee, he's in the camp, and when I heard that you were coming, my father was very happy...... Come with me into the camp. ”

As Dou Fengjie spoke, he pulled up Zheng Yanqing and walked into the barracks!
