Chapter 190: You're Gone
On the rooftops of the four directions of Lingxiao City, there were several black shadows passing quickly, stepping on the morning light, converging towards the imperial city harem in the center of the imperial capital, like a nocturnal bat that was afraid of light and fled into the darkness, and suddenly disappeared into the noble concubine's Zekun Palace.
The noble concubine, who had paced back and forth in the hall for a whole night, had no wrinkles in her luxurious clothes, and she was still noble in her gestures, only her frowning eyebrows betrayed her panicked uneasiness.
"Niangniang, you take a nap first," Bao Linglong looked anxious, and her eyes swayed with the noble concubine, "If you don't sleep like this, Mama will blame Niangniang when she comes back!"
"Shut up! Mama is nowhere to be found now, her life and death are unknown," Gao Guifei turned her head frantically and whispered, "You are talking about her now, didn't you mean to stab me in the heart?!"
Bao Linglong suddenly knelt down in a panic, and even the three close-fitting big maids Bao Lingli, Bao Lingqiao and Bao Lingxi who were standing on the side also knelt down in response, not daring to persuade again.
The noble concubine walked anxiously to the long window, turned around and walked back, saw the person kneeling on the ground, and sighed: "Get up, it's me who has a short temper, and it has nothing to do with you." ”
Bao Linglong raised her head, looked at the noble concubine with teary eyes, and whimpered: "I beg Niangniang to relax and eat some breakfast, so that I can have the mind and come up with a way to find Mama!"
Concubine Gao was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, and muttered, as if comforting herself: "I'm anxious, tired and dizzy, so I don't know what to do." It's time to eat, it's time to get some rest......"
As soon as she heard that the noble concubine wanted to eat, the four big maidens were very happy, and in the blink of an eye, breakfast was neatly arranged on the gold-painted low table of the moire table legs in front of her.
In the golden plate of Ganoderma lucidum, there are crispy fried seafood rolls in the shape of yellow cancan, a large bowl of silver soup in the shape of water lilies, a touch of lily and jade stem green rice porridge, and a small peony-colored red jade bowl of snow-white jade soybean milk. The bird's nest soup in the fine white porcelain cup of gold leaf peach blossom branches is hot, the red plum brew of pink Feifei is in the jade grass curtain-blue wine glass, and the noble concubine with a hibiscus face pinched the spoon of snowflake silver, looking at it silently, as if she was hesitating and not knowing what to eat, and was silent.
Bao Linglong understood that Concubine Gao was used to letting Mama Rong serve and eat, but now that Mama Rong was gone, she hurriedly and diligently handed over a cup of snow lotus honey bird's nest soup: "Niangniang, taste your favorite bird's nest, the slave maid added some Tianshan Snow Lotus, which is the most moisturizing and fire-free." ”
Concubine Gao was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly, and silently ate spoonful after spoonful by herself, lowering her long eyelashes, hiding the deep gloom in her eyes.
Seeing that the noble concubine had eaten breakfast, the four close-fitting maids suddenly smiled happily. Bao Lingli quickly loaded a bowl of lily and jade stem white rice porridge, Bao Lingli deftly served the hot water tofu that had just come out of the pot, and drew a cross in the center of the tofu block with a silver blade, Bao Lingxi skillfully twisted a few preserved eggs, used a small silver spoon to pick out the soft-flowing sugar egg yolk in the center of the preserved egg, poured it in the center of the water tofu, sprinkled with some fish-flavored meat floss, and finally added a spoonful of black jade salty sauce.
Concubine Gao leisurely ate the breakfast she was accustomed to, her fingertips steadily held the snowflake silver chopsticks, picked up a trace of Bazhen crispy bamboo shoots, tasted it, and her voice returned to the same soft and light as ever: "This bamboo shoot is good." Linglong, divided the secret guards into two groups, one group stayed in the imperial capital to continue looking, and the other group followed the rutted marks behind the Rong Mansion to find it. ”
"Yes!" Bao Linglong saw that Concubine Gao had regained her composure, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly replied.
"Lingli, you are a person, secretly check, Mama Rong went out of the palace to see Brother Rong, all the people who have seen her in the past two days and two nights. ”
"Dexterity, you go to Rong's mansion, take Brother Rong to patrol the city yamen and hold officials, put up a large notice, paste the portrait of Mama Rong, and reward those who provide clues, one hundred taels of silver. ”
"Lingxi, you are responsible for registering the information sent back by the five secret guards sent by the palace to secretly investigate Xuanyuan Xi, and you will report to me once for each one sent back!"
"Yes!" The three big girls replied in unison with peace of mind in their eyes, and their master has become a noble concubine who is stable and strategic, and she is no longer a flustered Ni'er who can't sleep and eat, which is really good!
Wisps of cold wind rushed into the main hall of the splendid Zekun Palace from the open long window, the thick snow fox blanket was spread on the beauty couch, and the noble concubine looked at the gilded thousand-grid flower shelf under the window with a silent face, although the flower shelf was full of flowers and plants, but it could not hide the gold leaf luan bird that stepped on the clouds cleverly embedded on the shelf, in the bright noon sun, the golden light flowed brilliantly, lifelike and ready to fly.
In Zekun Palace, the most thing is the Luan Bird made of gold, this ancient divine bird that is only one order lower than the phoenix, this kind of totem exclusive to the identity of the concubine.
The noble concubine watched quietly, watching, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes, which flowed down the corners of her eyes, leaving a trace of crystal clear water.
Nurse, you said that one day, Ni'er will turn the birds in the palace into phoenixes. You said that if you don't make a splash, you're already a blockbuster, and your neon is about to make a blockbuster, but you're gone!
If there is no help from you in the future, Ni'er is afraid that she will not have enough strength to reach the end.
If there is no participation in the future glory and wealth, Ni'er will feel that it is not worth it even if she has worked hard to get the back position.
So, nurse, you must hold on until the moment Ni'er finds you and picks you up!
Nurse, this is noon on the third day of your disappearance, and no one has seen you come out of the Rong Mansion.
The Imperial Capital is plastered with your portrait, but no one has provided a shred of information to claim the bounty.
The news of Secret Investigation Xuanyuan Xi is more boring than the other, and it has nothing to do with you in the slightest.
Follow the rut marks and go to the dark guards, none of them have come back, hopefully, the car will take you away, hopefully, when the dark guards come back, it will be when I see you!
As the sun set, the noble concubine was still sitting straight on the beauty couch, waiting persistently, and her steady figure was full of patience.
"Niangniang, I found it, I found it!" Bao Ling ran in a hurry, shouting as she ran, "Niangniang, on the night when I found out that Mama was missing, the eighth prince Xuanyuan Xi and the male pet met with the carriage!"
Although it had been determined that it was Xuanyuan Xi's doing, she was still shocked by Lingxi's words, and the noble concubine took a deep breath and tried her best to keep her voice steady: "Can you find out where the carriage went?"
"Yu Niangniang," Bao Lingxi immediately reacted when she heard the voice of the noble concubine who was as steady as Mount Tai, knelt down and saluted in an orderly manner, and her voice also calmed down, "The carriage stopped at the top of Lingyun Mountain, where there are cliffs on all sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack. There were crossbowmen guarding it, so the group of secret guards sent in the morning to chase the rut marks of the horses and chariots could not go up to the dark charge, and they suffered heavy casualties and did not come back to recover their lives. ”
