Chapter Seventy-Seven: Race Against Time
"Then, Feiying, next time there is something good, this princess will bring you again, this time ......" Saying, Mo Shihuan looked at Zhuo Chen hesitantly and then at Feiying, raised his eyebrows helplessly, and then shook his head, "Forget it this time." ”
Feiying glanced at Zhuo Chen cautiously, thinking about how Feiying could say anything to his master, and then put away all the medicinal materials with great discernment, Feiying, who was not very kind to Mo Shihuan, was already even more desperate for Mo Shihuan at this time.
As soon as the flying eagle went down, Zhuo Chen's personal guard hurriedly came to Zhuo Chen's side, the beads of sweat on his forehead were enough to see how he rushed over in a hurry, and he must be holding an extremely important secret letter in his hand.
Now all the personal guards understand Mo Shihuan's status in the palace, so they will not shy away from Mo Shihuan in the slightest about such a confidential matter, and they will report it immediately.
"Report to the prince, there has been progress on King Wu's side." As he spoke, the personal guard handed over the secret letter in his hand to Zhuo Chen.
Mo Shihuan was anxious, not to mention those treasures, but also because Mo Shihuan understood the relationship between King Wu and Zhuo Chen, and what King Wu had done in the past, it was impossible for him to do anything good in this investigation, so his mind suddenly shifted to this matter.
Zhuo Chen's eyes were cold after reading the secret letter, and he frowned slightly, "It seems that we still have to focus on this matter now, King Wu is afraid that he will be even more crazy after finding something." ”
Mo Shihuan nodded firmly, it was always strange for King Wu to deal with such a thing, and then nodded violently, "That's right, I think the same as you, now that I don't have any problems with my body, it's better to quickly start preparing for the investigation." ”
Subsequently, Zhuo Chen took Mo Shihuan to disguise himself and went to the place where the petty official Pei Gu and his family were to prepare to secretly investigate the situation, and by the way, to find out what kind of extent King Wu had already investigated.
And King Wu had just made some progress here, and he couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart, because he knew that Zhuo Chen was not as weak as he seemed on the surface, and he didn't know what kind of action would be made behind his back, and the things behind this matter were not simple, so King Wu had people strictly guard their places early on.
"Be sure to find out everything, and don't let go of any clues!" The appearance of Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen appeared in King Wu's heart, and his heart became more firm.
And Xu Ying has been even more unhappy in her heart since she touched her nose in the palace last time, and the existence of Mo Shihuan also makes Xu Ying hate her teeth, but she still thinks about Zhuo Chen without any interest, even if Zhuo Chen speaks coldly to herself, it makes Xu Ying so hard to forget.
"Mo Shihuan, you wait for me, sooner or later one day I will let you disappear from my cousin's side!" The more Xu Ying missed Zhuo Chen, the more she hated Mo Shihuan.
Over there, Xu Ying was resentful of Mo Shihuan's existence, but here Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen were busy with the investigation, and the cooperation between the two turned out to be more and more tacit.
"I guess I really want to see what kind of things are behind it, and Pei Gu's wife and children are the key to starting." Mo Shihuan tugged at his disguised clothes, and subconsciously always felt that he was a super spy.
Zhuo Chen looked at her petite figure dotingly behind Mo Shihuan, coupled with such a look and movement, Zhuo Chen couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, this faint smile didn't even notice Zhuo Chen himself.
"You're right, that's why we disguised ourselves like this and went to Pei Gu's house to inquire about the situation, and then you should follow me cautiously." Zhuo Chen nodded seriously, and immediately set off with Mo Shihuan to prepare to go to Pei Gu's home.
Along the way, no one recognized Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen, just because the disguises of the two were really perfect, so they came to Pei Gu's home smoothly.
At this time, the wife of the petty official Pei Gu was immersed in grief, and it seemed that she couldn't accept the news of her husband's sudden death, and it seemed that something even more distressing had happened, because Mo Shihuan noticed that Pei's wife at this time was obviously not right, and even a little in a trance.
"Madam, you must still be sad, the prince and I will definitely find out what happened, but I don't know if you have any clues, so that we can investigate more quickly." Mo Shihuan looked at Pei Gu's wife gently, and deliberately noticed that this woman did not have a child by her side.
Pei Gu's wife seemed to be a little vigilant, looking at Mo Shihuan's eyes was also very complicated, and she was reluctant to say anything, but under Mo Shihuan's questioning, Zhuo Chen still realized that this Pei Gu's wife must know something, but why she was reluctant to speak is really puzzling.
The two had no choice but to return to their temporary place with a little comfort, and when they were at a loss, the personal guards beside Zhuo Chen suddenly came with news.
"Lord Wang, I found out, Pei Gu has a young son named Pei Chengzhi, who suddenly disappeared inexplicably recently, I'm afraid it has something to do with this matter."
Mo Shihuan suddenly remembered that he had just seen the child beside Pei's wife, and suddenly came to Zhuo Chen's side, "That's right!" I'll just say what's wrong, now that I think about it, the woman is too sad, her spirit is already in a trance, I'm afraid it's a double blow, now it's true that her son is missing, it must be related, and we should start here! ”
Zhuo Chen looked at Mo Shihuan's firm expression, and thought it was true in his heart, and when Mo Shihuan inquired about the situation with Pei's wife, Zhuo Chen also found this suspicious place, and immediately asked the people around him to investigate the matter about Pei Chengzhi, plus King Wu must also be investigating this matter at this time, and the two couldn't help but be anxious in their hearts.
As expected, King Wu knew that the death of the junior official was not simple, so he quickly found out about Pei Chengzhi, and even mobilized all the forces around him to find Pei Chengzhi's whereabouts.
Zhuo Chen's eyeliner, who was lurking on King Wu's side, was the first to inform Zhuo Chen of such news, and the two immediately raced against time to find clues about Pei Chengzhi.
Because of their disguises, Mo Shihuan and Zhuo Chen could rest assured that they could investigate in person, and the two did not let go of any clues, and finally under the command of the two, Feiying took the lead with his subordinates to find the place where Pei Chengzhi last appeared.
When Zhuo Chen learned the news, he took Mo Shi to the place where Feiying found it, preparing to look for clues.
