Chapter 47: Searching

Wang Xi took the green silk out of the small courtyard of the attic, and the stage not far away was noisy, surrounded by serving servants.

She stood at the intersection and looked around for a long time, and carefully recalled the location of each courtyard on the drawing, then pointed to the direction where Chen Ying had just passed, and asked Qingxi: "If I remember correctly, it is farther to go to Lumingxuan from here than to Lumingxuan from the stage." ”

But the road was quiet, silent, and very quiet.

Qingxi's sense of orientation is much stronger than Wang Xi's, even if she is blindfolded and thrown her to a strange place, she can find her back intuitively, which is one of the main reasons why Wang Xi will take her with her whenever she goes out.

She nodded and said, "If you go from this side, you have to go around a forest, and if you walk from the stage, you can go directly to Luming Xuan." ”

"Then we'll go this way." Wang Xi pointed in the direction of Chen Ying's past and said, "There are few people here. ”

There are a lot of people on the stage, and if you are pulled by someone you know to talk, you may not be able to go to Lumingxuan quietly.

Qingsilk agreed, and the two of them lightly turned onto the bluestone road where Chen Ying passed.

Wang Xi looked at the dense green plants next to him, and without hesitation, he plucked the sideburns made of lilac gemstones, big red agate, white pearls and some emerald technology in his hair, and threw it under a big tree with lush vegetation, and then instructed Qingsilk without changing his face: "If someone asks, you will say that my sideburns are gone, and we are looking for jewelry." ”

The sideburns were specially designed by the jewelry shop for her, not only precious, but also unique, those with weaker family resources can be used as heirlooms, and no one will be indifferent if they fall off, and no one should doubt this as an excuse.

"We are all looking for this sideburns," Wang Xi said, standing there and looking under the big tree a few times, and found that when he passed by the side of the road, he didn't look carefully over there, and couldn't find that there was a jewelry under the tree, so he continued to walk forward with the green silk with satisfaction, "Or get lost, or go to the wrong place, others must understand." What's more, there are quite a few people who see me wearing such a sideburn. ”

Qingsu knew that Wang Xi usually looked heartless, but if she wanted to do something, she would do her best to do it. The red silk didn't know where to go near Lu Mingxuan, and Lu Mingxuan didn't know when it was re-guarded by the guards, although she was anxious about the whereabouts of the red silk, she could see Wang Xi arrange it step by step, and her heart slowly settled down.

The two of them walked around the forest quickly, and soon saw the bamboo forest of Lu Mingxuan.

Lu Mingxuan is not a closed courtyard, Lu Mingxuan's plaque is not hung on which moon cave door, saying that it is Lu Mingxuan, because this piece is used by Chen Luo, and the reason why Lu Mingxuan is called this name is because this is when Chen Luo was a child, the emperor sent a seal engraved by the Ministry of Shangshu Rao Yu to him, he took this to make his own private seal, the eldest princess's mansion West Road a five-entry main courtyard and its surrounding flower beds, woods, lotus ponds, plum gardens, etc., are called Lu Mingxuan, and other idlers do not know where to belong to the west road of the eldest princess's mansion, where does it belong to Lu Mingxuan, and some even simply call the west road of the eldest princess's mansion Lu Mingxuan.

This is also the reason why Wang Xi dared to break in - she is a little girl from Shu, and it is normal for her to not be able to figure these things out.

The two didn't meet anyone along the way, Wang Xi and Qingsilk whispered: "Is there a guard over there in the bamboo forest?" ”

Qingsilk said: "I only know that there are people, but I don't know where they are guarding." ”

Wang Xi thought for a while and said, "Later, I will act separately with you, you go to find red silk, if someone finds it, it will be according to what we discussed before, saying that we are looking for jewelry." Then tell them that the red silk is gone, and say that you are separated from her, and see what the guards have to say.

"I haven't been to the bamboo forest before, and if I go to the bamboo forest with you now, it won't end well if someone finds out.

"I'll be waiting for you outside the bamboo forest.

"If you haven't come out after a stick of incense, I'll go straight inside, saying that you and Hongsilk are looking for jewelry, but they're gone, I'm looking for someone.

"I am a guest of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and they are staying there, eight or nine times out of ten, they are afraid that we will collide with the nobles. We have not seen the faces of the nobles, and they will not do anything to us.

"If the red silk is just taken care of by them, that's for the best. If not, maybe they'll help us find someone.

"As long as you bite the bullet and look for jewelry, and if you get lost in the bamboo forest, we will definitely be able to get out smoothly."

It's not that she doesn't want to go with Qingsilk, but if she goes, she will become a burden and a drag on Qingsilk.

Instead of using your hands, you should use your brain.

Qingsu asked her a few more words, and planned for the worst of what might happen and encountered, and the two of them also arrived at Lu Mingxuan smoothly.

Despite this, Wang Xi did not relax his carelessness, but glanced at Qingsilk and said, "Let's look around again." ”

This is what the eldest lady said about doing a full set of acts, even if you believe what you want to say, others will believe you.

Qingsu's gaze was firmly directed towards Wang Xi, and then she began to pretend to find something nearby.

Slowly, the green silk went to the bamboo forest, and Wang Xi seemed to be tired, so he found a bluestone nearby and sat down.

She was indeed tired, too.

Not only is her heartstrings tight, but she hasn't walked such a long way for a long time.

It's just that people don't feel it when they're nervous, and when they sit down, their backs and feet hurt even more.

Wang Xi rested for a while, still thinking about this matter in his heart.

She didn't feel like the red silk had been found and locked up by those guards, because according to Qing Silk, those guards were definitely not ordinary royal guards, and this was the mansion of the eldest princess of Baoqing, and the red silk had just walked into the range they were guarding, and they were not holding knives or arrows, like an assassin, and they usually didn't want to attract the attention of others.

Red Silk may be like Green Silk, found the guard, and then didn't know what to do, and simply hid.

If it weren't for Miss Wu Er's words, Wang Xi would feel that it would be good for the red silk to hide, and it would be a big deal to sneak back quietly when the time comes, as long as it is not discovered.

I'm afraid that those people will stay here for dinner, when she returns home, there is one less maid, Mrs. Tai is so confused, I am afraid that Shi Zhu will have nothing to do, and poke this matter out, so that the people in the palace will have a misunderstanding, and they would rather kill the wrong person than let it go, delaying Hongxi's life.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Who would have thought that things would be such a coincidence? She just wanted to give Chen Luo a counterattack, who asked him to scare herself with a big knife, but she didn't expect to move a stone to her own foot and put her in trouble.

Wang Xi looked helplessly at the red cornices of the Yingxiao Pavilion in the distance under the green trees, and was a little curious where Chen Ying went? What is Chen Jue looking for Chen Ying for?

She remembered that behind the bamboo forest was a lotus pond, and there was a pavilion next to the lotus pond.

This season is the time when the lotus leaves first appear, I don't know if Chen Ying and Chen Jue will choose to speak there.

Wang Xi is not the kind of person who doesn't know the severity, she was very curious, but she didn't think to confirm her guess.

She rested for a moment, feeling as if a mosquito was biting her.

I don't know why, the brothers and sisters are together, everyone is fine, but she will be bitten by mosquitoes.

Her twelfth cousin said that it was because she ate so well, the meat was tender, and maybe the blood was sweet, so the mosquitoes only stared at her and bitten.

And she was bitten by mosquitoes and soon became red and swollen into a red spot the size of a copper coin, even if she used the wormwood paste made by Dr. Feng, it would take more than a month to completely dissipate, so she was particularly afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes.

Could it be that the mosquitoes on the other side of the lotus pond smelled her smell and ran over?

Wang Xi suddenly felt itchy all over his body, stood up and patted his dress, ready to find a place to squat again.

I heard the rustling of footsteps on the other side of the bamboo forest.

The footsteps were heavy, not like a woman's footsteps.

Or is it the guards who are guarding here?

Wang Xi hesitated for a moment, but decided to avoid it first and see clearly.

She hid behind a large tree.

It was two men who came out of the bamboo forest.

They were all tall and powerful, dressed in ordinary blue silk robes, with sharkskin scabbards and knives, and their eyes were sharp and cold.

This is by no means a royal guard.

Since the royal guards are guards, they have to check three generations and have high martial arts, so they are not from ordinary families.

Although they have a high value of force, they are peaceful because of their origins.

It is impossible to have such a cold and murderous gaze.

Could it be an assassin?

Wang Xi was stupid.

Standing clinging to the tree, even his breathing slowed.

I only heard one of them whisper: "You look for it again, if it doesn't work, go and report it to the adult." ”

The other let out a low "um", and for some reason there was a pause, and the two of them slammed into the bamboo forest again.

Wang Xi was shocked to realize that he had made a wrong decision.

She shouldn't have been separated from the green silk.

Now that she is powerless, when she meets such two people, it is estimated that all the excuses she said are useless.

What to do?

It's certainly an opportunity.

Wang Xi thought about whether to go out generously like this, or simply shout loudly and make a big fuss.

The eldest princess of Baoqing can't just shout and kill because she and the maid went to the wrong place, right?

Wouldn't that tell others that something happened to Lu Mingxuan that he couldn't tell others?

Wang Xi's mind was spinning rapidly, and two more people came out on the opposite side.

They are all tall people, with broad shoulders and thin waists and long legs, one is wearing a crimson woven gold moire tuanhua straight jacket, and the other is wearing a kudzu yellow woven gold moire tuanhua straight jacket, with a brisk expression, and he is talking about something.

Wang Xi fixed his eyes and saw that it was Chen Luo who was wearing crimson clothes, and it was the second prince who was wearing yellow clothes.

Could it be that those two men were hiding from them?

Wang Xi thought, who knew that these two people did not walk towards her, but turned into the bamboo forest where there was still a shot away from her.

She immediately realized that they were going to the lotus pond.

Those two people from before might really be bandits!

Wang Xi suddenly felt creepy, she didn't think about it, she lifted her skirt and chased after Chen Luo, while chasing, she also shouted: "Chen ......"

It's just that as soon as the surname came out, she immediately closed her mouth.

She and Chen Luo had only met officially once, and Chen Luo did not report his name at that time.

If she is like this, will it arouse Chen Luo's suspicions, right?

In Wang Xi's heart, even if Chen Luo had found out that she was spying on him, as long as he had no evidence for a day and didn't confront her for a day, she would resolutely refuse to admit it and resolutely pretend not to do so.
