Chapter 262: News Returns
Xiao Shaobei fed Ding Zhen the poison made by Ji Yanning.
Those who take this poison cannot speak, their legs and hands are crippled, they are weak and weak, their bodies are incontinent, they cannot take care of themselves, their bodies are extremely itchy, and then they will die of internal organ failure after more than ten days.
This will cause him a lot of humiliation before he dies.
Only when Ding Zhen is tortured, Xiao Shaobei will feel better.
The next thing is to prepare for the attack on Yan Kingdom.
A group of soldiers rode quickly from the official road into the city of Chang'an, and entered the city, one of them headed in the direction of Liufu.
In the afternoon, not long after Liu Yuan and Liu Mu returned to the mansion, before they took off their official robes, they heard an urgent report from the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
An frowned, glanced at Liu Mu, and said, "You haven't finished your official business, and you have gone to the mansion to work?"
Liu Mu was also a little puzzled, although he was a squire of the Ministry of War, but the military report of the Dingbei Marquis Mansion should be directly presented to the emperor and the Military Affairs Department, even if it was related to the Ministry of War, it was also reported to the Ministry of War, how could he come to his home of a squire?
Liu Yuan happened to go back to the main courtyard, and when he heard the news, he immediately glanced at Liu Mu and said to the little servant who reported it: "Let people come in." ”
Dressed in armor and with a long knife pinned to his body, the soldier hurried into the hall of the Liufu.
The man sitting on the main seat looked like he was about fifty years old, and at first glance he was Liu Yuan, and the one wearing the Shilang Mansion next to him should be Liu Mu.
"Attend two Yanagi-sama. The soldier bowed and said, "The little one has been ordered by the Beihou to report to the Liu family. ”
Liu Mu's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "What letter?"
The soldier pulled out a letter from his waist and stepped forward to hand it to Liu Mu.
He said: "Miss Liu Jiabiao, Ji Yanning, when passing by Yingzhou City, was kidnapped by Yan soldiers and unfortunately fell into the Luan River, and now her life and death are unknown. ”
"What!"
Hearing the soldier's words, An slammed the table, and the whole person stood up from his position, his eyes full of disbelief.
Even Liu Mu and Liu Yuan were stunned.
The soldier lowered his head and said: "Master Hou said that if there is news of Miss Ji, he will notify the Liu Mansion as soon as possible, and please don't worry too much about Lord Liu." The specific reason, Hou Ye has already written in the letter, if the adult has any instructions, just send it to the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and we will send it to Yingzhou to inform the Hou Ye. ”
An Shi looked at the soldier: "How did Yan Ning get to Yingzhou......? What the hell is going on? Did you send someone to find it?"
The soldier reported: "Before coming back, our Hou Ye had always sent a lot of people to look for her near the Luan River, and after seven days and seven nights, we still couldn't find Miss Ji......"
For seven days and seven nights, he was not found...... When An heard the soldier say this, his eyes suddenly went dark, and he fainted directly.
"Madam!" Liu Mu immediately stepped forward to support An's.
The soldier lowered his eyes and did not continue.
Liu Mu glanced at the soldier and said, "I know, you go back." ”
Something happened to Ji Yanning, and the guards of the Liu family and the people of Baochangji should send someone back to Chang'an to report the news soon, but they are not as fast as the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
Ask them for details when the time comes.
The soldier answered, then retreated, turned and walked out of the Liufu.
Liu Mu picked up An Shiheng and took her back to the courtyard to rest.
Originally, Ji Yanning was not at ease when he went to the north, but they didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Liu Yuan's eyes were slightly downcast, and he sat in his position for a long time before coming back to his senses.
His daughter Liu Xi'er was almost burned to death in Zhuangzi back then, and there was no news of him, so many years, now that Xi'er's child has returned, it has not yet been a year old, is it going to leave him?
He was indeed a little dissatisfied with Ji Yanning in his heart, except for that face, she and Xi'er had no place to imagine.
But no matter what, she is Xi'er's child after all.
Liu Mu brought An Shi back to the courtyard, and he was also a little sad in his heart, he opened the letter, which was Xiao Shaobei's handwriting.
It is not written in great detail, but the fact that Ji Yanning fell into the water still can't be changed, and Liu Mu has an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Liu Mu originally wanted to hide it from Ji Lang, but this matter had spread all over the Liu family, and it was impossible to hide it from others.
Ji Lang went horseback riding with his classmates after school today, and returned to Liufu when it was almost dark, but as soon as he entered the mansion, he noticed that there was something wrong with the eyes of others looking at him.
He didn't care much about it, and went back to his yard.
It's just that as soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Ziyu sitting in the courtyard crying in a low voice.
"Sister Ziyu, what's wrong with you?" Ji Lang stepped forward and asked with concern.
Ziyu's eyes were red and swollen, and she looked up at Ji Lang, but her tears couldn't stop flowing down: "Young Master, Miss ...... her"
Ji Lang's heart jumped and asked, "What's wrong with my sister?"
Ziyu choked and said: "Just now a message came from the Dingbei Hou Mansion, saying that the eldest lady fell into the river, and now her life and death are unknown, and I have been looking for a long time and there is no news of the eldest lady." ”
Ji Lang's whole person was stunned in place, and there was a rumble in his head, as if a huge thunder exploded in his head.
They can't hide this kind of thing from Ji Lang, because their sister and brother are the owners of Baochang Ji, if something happens to Ji Yanning, Ji Lang will naturally stabilize Baochang Ji, even though he is only eight years old.
Ji Jiu, who was standing behind Ji Lang, said: "Young Master, this matter has not yet been decided, and everything is still possible before the eldest lady is found." The eldest lady Jiren has her own natural appearance, maybe there will be news soon. ”
Ji Lang lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time before slowly speaking.
"I know, my sister will be fine. There was a hint of pleading in his tone.
My sister also said that she would come back to check his homework, check his martial arts, and check his archery.
He must not let his sister down.
Ji Lang was about to walk towards the room, but he was kicked by the steps under his feet and almost fell down.
Ji Jiu's eyes were quick and hurriedly helped Ji Lang.
The little guy beside him immediately stepped forward to follow his young master.
Liu Changyuan walked over from outside the courtyard and happened to see Ji Lang, and originally wanted to warn the people in his yard not to talk nonsense, but now looking at Ji Lang's appearance, it seems that Ji Lang already knows the news.
His face was a little bad, he glanced at the maids and servants in the courtyard, and asked, "Who is talking nonsense in front of Ah Lang?"
Ji Lang looked back at Liu Changyuan and said, "Third cousin, I'm fine." What's more, I'm from the Ji family, and my sister can't hide anything from me. ”
Liu Changyuan was still thinking about what to say, and Ji Lang had already walked into his room.
"I want to be alone, and the third cousin should go back. ”
As he spoke, he closed the door to his room.
