Chapter 436: Finding a Man's Footprints

After listening to Yadan's detailed recollections, there was nothing unusual that day.

Mu Yingbao got up early and thought about when Brother Hui would arrive, and then what dishes he would cook for him.

In the morning, I smashed some hazelnuts and pine nuts with the two of them, took the nuts and said that I would make more moon cakes, and said that when they came back, they would make up for a Mid-Autumn Festival.

Later, when Mrs. was preparing to pickle sauerkraut, she found that the salt was not enough, so Yadan went to the big kitchen to get it.

When I came back, I didn't see her in the kitchen.

At that time, Yadan thought that Mu Yingbao had gone to the back garden, or returned to the house.

But after waiting and waiting, noon was over, and I didn't see her out of the house.

Yadan knew that she had been worried about Brother Hui and them, so she went to bed late at night. I thought she was sleepy after staying up all night, taking a nap, and she didn't go into the house to check for fear of making a noise.

Until the sun was about to set in the afternoon, and still no one came out, Yadan tried to shout a few times at the door, but there was no response, and I didn't feel at ease when I entered the house to see, where was there anyone in the house, and the bedding on the bed was neatly folded or the same as in the morning.

Thinking that she wouldn't go out, the maid looked for it in the house, searched every corner, and didn't see anyone, and went to ask the doorkeeper and said that he didn't see Mrs. go out.

When Tao Qingyuan came back in the evening, he was also anxious when he heard it.

After looking for all the secret rooms and seeing no one, the secret guard told her that the last time he saw her was to go to the back garden, and the dark guard hidden in the back garden said that he didn't see anyone at all.

Only then did it confirm that Madame was indeed missing.

Xue Wenyu listened, was silent for a moment, and ordered someone to make a few lanterns and follow him.

Walking straight to the back garden, I walked back and forth a few times between the two hidden guards, and there were traces of earth turning in many places in the courtyard. Tao Qingyuan told him that it was a poisonous trap planted by Mu Yingbao after they left.

Then she disappeared, and in order to find someone not to hurt her own people, she took them all out.

Xue Wenyu walked and carefully surveyed again, and finally found a dead end in the position between the two secret guards, the reason why this dead end is called a dead end is because the two dark guards can't see this position. That's the back of the rockery between the two points.

After carefully inspecting the rockery, I found an abnormality, with a man's footprints. There were also a few pieces of moss at the top of the wall, and footprints were found on the other side of the wall, which was also only one man's.

Everyone guessed that the other party should have carried the lady away.

found out where the person was taken captive, and the mood of the people was not relaxed at all.

Xue Wenyu tried hard to calm himself down, otherwise there would be no way to analyze. Under the persuasion of his subordinates, he went back to the house to wash up briefly, and after two days of day and night travel, three horses were changed on the way, and now he was not sleepy at all.

She didn't feel tired, and her mind was full of wonders who had kidnapped her.

Since he came and didn't attack her, but took her away, there must be a reason to take her away, and there will be no movement at all.

If you want to use her to threaten Brother Hui and herself and give up participating in the election of the new king, then the other party should also be waiting, waiting for Brother Hui to return to Beijing.

Thinking of this, Xue Wenyu calmed down a little, couldn't sleep and saw that the kitchen was still bright, and when he walked in, he saw that it was Yadan wiping the cabinets and stoves inside.

At this scene, Xue Wenyu was also a little moved, she had only been with this girl for a long time, and this girl had such deep feelings for her.

"She'll be fine, you go and rest." Xue Wenyu rarely spoke.

When you find her, call the stone boy back.

"Lord Shizi, are you hungry, why don't I cook you a bowl of gnocchi. Madame still has to rely on you to find it back, don't collapse. When the girl saw this person come back, she seemed to have a backbone.

"Okay, let's get something." Xue Wenyu sat down at the table,

Yadan hurriedly washed her hands and made gnocchi, and Xue Wenyu looked at everything in the kitchen.

After leaving Beijing, he missed her and missed this kitchen.

The kitchen was cleaned by the girl, but without her, Xue Wenyu felt empty in his heart.

It turns out that the feeling of liking someone in my heart is like this, I am happy because of her, I am worried because of her, and having her in the kitchen is also the warmest place.

Xue Wenyu understood why he could be so greedy for such a kitchen, and he didn't feel anything about the Hou Mansion where he grew up.

Because, in that Hou Mansion, there is no one he cares about.

"Lord Shizi, the gnocchi is done, I watched Mrs. do it, there must be no way to compare with Mrs. Madame's craftsmanship, you will just pad your stomach." Yadan embarrassedly brought a bowl of gnocchi and put it on the table in front of Xue Wenyu.

The simplest and most trouble-free pasta for gnocchi, scald the flour in the stirring basin with boiling water, put soup and seasoning in the pot in the pot, the soup is boiling, and then pour the pimple slowly down, and you can eat it when it is cooked.

Xue Wenyu nodded, picked up the spoon and took a bite, I don't know why, I felt that there was no taste at all, I thought about it, got up and went to the cupboard, opened a small jar, found a small plate and put some pickles in it.

Eat the kimchi she made, and the gnocchi immediately becomes delicious.

Seeing Xue Wenyu eating deliciously, Ya Dan knew that it was not delicious to make herself, but it was delicious for Mrs. to make kimchi.

"Shiziye, the king of the little county?" Yadan knew that when the prince came back, he would definitely be able to find his wife soon, so she was relieved and remembered to ask Brother Hui.

"He's fine, he should be able to get home tomorrow." Xue Wenyu told.

Yadan nodded, and began to worry again, Brother Hui has such a good relationship with his wife, knowing that something happened to his wife, he doesn't know how worried he will be.

A bowl of gnocchi was down, Xue Wenyu got up and asked Ya Dan to go back to rest, and he walked to the back garden.

Yadan stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at the back of the prince, and felt so surprised, the prince would care about her? Especially at this time, she would say to a girl to go back and rest!

Walking in the silent back garden, Xue Wenyu was full of that person's figure in his heart, especially when he walked into the gazebo, he remembered that the night before leaving, she sat there and looked up at the moon.

Today, the moon still hangs in the sky, but she is nowhere to be found.

"Mu Yingbao, where are you?" He muttered to himself at the moon.

He didn't marry Brother Hui for all these years, but he didn't expect that in the end, he still had a woman, a woman who had occupied his heart.

After standing in the pavilion for more than half an hour, she returned to the backyard, pushed open the door of her room, and did not go in, but turned to her room, pushed the door and walked in.

She took out the fire and lit the candle, stroked the tables and chairs in her room, and sat down in front of the dresser.

She doesn't like to use rouge pollen, and the few cans on the dresser are full and haven't been touched much.

Pull open a drawer and put the hairpins she gave her side by side.

"Do you not like the style of hairpins, or do you not like the person who gave them?" He picked up a hairpin and muttered to himself.

Xue Wenyu lay down on her bed, closed her eyes, felt her breath and fell asleep in a daze......
