Ji Xiao looked at Xia Jinse in surprise, but she didn't care about her demeanor, and said eagerly: "Cousin Ji, you quickly said, where did you meet Wushuang, what did she say at the time, and where did she go later?" ”

"Is something wrong?" Ji Xiao is not a fool, looking at Xia Jinse's appearance, he suddenly felt that there was a problem.

Xia Jinse knew that Ji Xiao was a good person and might be able to help a little, so he told him. Ji Xiao's eyes widened, and he lost his voice: "What, you have been missing for so many days?" I met the county lord that day, she was obviously good, how could she ......"

It was the first day of junior high school, and Ji Xiao accompanied his mother Liu Shi to Puji Temple on the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve.

Liu went to ask the Bodhisattva to bless his son's marriage and give her a daughter-in-law. Liu's virtuous and elegant, is a standard good wife and mother, since marrying Ji Xiao's father Ji Zhiqian, although he can't talk about deep feelings, but he also has a harmonious husband and wife, and the most worrying thing is his son's marriage.

Ji Xiao is also filial, since he was on vacation, he specially accompanied his mother to catch the first pillar incense, so he went to Puji Temple on Chinese New Year's Eve. After noon on the first day of the new year, I returned to the capital, and happened to meet the car of the Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion on the road.

"What am I doing, Cousin Xia, you also know, you can recognize the car of the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion at a glance." Ji Xiao said: "At that time, my mother and I were standing on the side of the road to let the car pass first, and I accidentally saw the county lord lift the curtain, and I knew that the county lord was sitting in the car. ”

Xia Jinse hurriedly asked, "Did the county lord tell you where she was going?" ”

Ji Xiao shook his head: "How come?" The county lord didn't see me at all, and the car left directly, as if he had something on his mind. Because I knew the relationship between the county lord and you, I took a second look, and the car turned in the direction of Xuanwu Street, but then I didn't know. ”

Xuanwu Street is one of the streets in the west of the city, and most of the people living in the west of the city are relatives of the emperor and the wealthy of high-ranking officials. The Jin Palace, the Zuo Xiang Mansion, and the Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion are all in the west of the city, even if they know this, it is useless.

Xia Jinse was disappointed again, as if he had a premonition that something was wrong.

Ji Xiao looked at Lan Beichen, then at Xia Jinse, and saw that she was not as sad as usual, and couldn't help but say: "Cousin, don't worry, the county lord is so good, naturally Jiren has his own natural appearance." Anyway, I'm fine these days, I'll help you find it! ”

Knowing that Ji Xiao was anxious and righteous and helpful, Xia Jinse wanted to have one more person to help and had many hopes: "Thank you, Cousin Ji, it's been three or four days, and Wushuang has no news at all, I'm really worried that something happened to her." ”

Just then, Shatterstar returns, reporting that he has finally made a discovery.

In the past few days, he has been checking Ji Wushuang's whereabouts, and he has not rested during the New Year, obviously it is winter, and there is still a slight sweat on his forehead when Broken Star comes back, which shows that he has been busy.

"Lord, princess, my subordinates finally found a little ......"

Just as he was about to say that he saw Ji Xiao there, Xia Jinse signaled that it was okay, so he continued: "Princess, my subordinates finally found the car of the Wushuang County Lord, which was found in the alley of a slum in the north of the city. ”

When Shatterstar arrived, he found that the car had been 'dismembered', and if he hadn't seen the mark of the Marquis of Xiaoyao's Mansion on one of the wreckage, no one would have recognized it

It's a car.

A few poor people living nearby came to pick up garbage, and found that these rags could be used as firewood, and some mats, soft yarns, etc. could come in handy, and they were about to pick them up when they were discovered by the people of Shattered Star.

However, apart from the wreckage of the carriage, the whereabouts of the Musou County Lord were not found. The subordinates also inquired about it, and no one had ever seen the Wushuang County Lord, because if a dazzling woman like the county lord appeared in the slums, it would definitely be impressive, but it has been quiet recently, and nothing has happened. ”

"But at least it proves that the county lord was indeed taken captive and has been hidden to this day." Xia Jinse said in a deep voice.

"This also shows that the other party must have a purpose, and he wants to use the county lord to do something, otherwise what will be found this time will be the county lord's body." Lan Beichen said, he explained the possibility of the situation, and also told Xia Jinse that Ji Wushuang was probably safe.

"Even the county lord of Xiaoyao Mansion dared to kidnap him, this person really ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall!"

Ji Xiao was furious, clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Cousin, don't worry, no matter who did it, as long as you make a move, you will definitely leave clues, I will go to the north of the city to check now, and I will tell you as soon as there is news." ”

Xia Jinse was very grateful: "Thank you, cousin, you are still busy for the New Year." ”

Ji Xiao didn't care, patted his chest and said, "What did my cousin say!" This man dares to commit a crime under the feet of the Son of Heaven, which is to provoke the law and create panic...... Belch. Hehe, accidentally forgot. ”

He suddenly remembered that he was no longer a head catcher, so he was transferred to the criminal department, and scratched his head in a daze.

"My cousin is jealous and hateful, which is admirable!" It was rare that Xia Jinse also smiled, and he was not polite, and said: "Then I will bother my cousin, I hope to rescue Wushuang as soon as possible, and I will invite you to dinner when the time comes." ”

Ji Xiao smiled: "Okay, then I'll go first." ”

Xia Jinse asked Shattered Star to send him, and by the way, he told Ji Xiao about the specific location and situation in the north of the city.

After the two of them went out, Lan Beichen smiled faintly and said: "Jin Se, your cousin is indeed interesting, although he may not be able to be a great minister, but he is definitely a good pillar." With a little training, he will definitely be able to make some achievements one day. ”

"Maybe, the first time I met him, although he was brought by the Zhao family, his behavior is completely different from the Zhao family, and it seems that he followed his parents." Xia Jinse was also lucky, fortunately, Ji Xiao was not led astray by the Zhao family, and he would not blindly follow the words of his elders.

"His father is the director of the country's son and is a clear man, otherwise he would have been favored by the imperial sister back then."

Lan Beichen seems to know something inside, but Xia Jinse understands that the relationship is not just two people, but also two families, not to mention that one party is still a princess, which creates a distance even more.

Thinking of Ji Xiao's investigation experience, Xia Jinse looked forward to it: "I really hope he can find out something, the case of the Soul Chasing Building started with him, and I don't know if it means that my cousin is lucky, otherwise you are so powerful, and there are many people under him, why didn't you find out before him?" ”

Lan Beichen's eyes narrowed: "Are you disgusted that this king is not as good as him?" ”

only to find out

said the wrong thing, Xia Jinse suddenly laughed dryly: "How can there be! I'm just saying he's lucky, not that you're not as good as him......"

"Luck is also a form of strength." He said.

"Lan Beichen, I really didn't mean that, don't be angry." Xia Jinse sneered, bad, accidentally offended him again.

Lan Beichen got up and said lightly: "What am I angry about, what you said is the truth, he is indeed good." ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked out, and said without looking back: "I'm going to look for Han Yang, you just rest at home, don't run around, lest the county lord find you and disappear." ”

Without waiting for Xia Jinse to say anything, the others had already gone out.

Xia Jinse couldn't cry or laugh, the man said that he was not angry, but he was obviously angry, and he was duplicitous.

Chasing Yun whispered: "Princess, the prince seems to be jealous." ”

It's not like, it's clear! Xia Jinse said helplessly: "Has he been jealous before?" ”

"How is that possible!"

Shooting the moon covered her mouth and smiled: "Don't say that the prince was jealous before, he couldn't even see his expression, if he hadn't met the princess, he would have more smiles, and the slave maid would even think that the prince wouldn't laugh." ”

Is it really so paralyzed, or is it deliberately pretending to be deep?

Although Xia Jinse knew that Lan Beichen was silent in front of outsiders, he couldn't think about his perennial unsmiling appearance. But also, didn't he say before that he once went out to run errands with Leng Mo, and the two didn't talk for three days or three days?

It seems that Lan Beichen also has the talent to be a dumb person!

……

Ji Xiao and Shattered Star are already familiar with each other, and since the last time the two worked together and killed a wild wolf, they have felt a little sorry for each other.

While walking, Broken Star said to Ji Xiao: "This matter has been hidden now, for fear of tarnishing the reputation of the county lord and the princess, the county lord has been missing for three whole days, and there is no trace of him so far, and the princess and princess are also upset." ”

Ji Xiao asked, "What is the prince upset?" ”

Shattered Star glanced at him: "The princess is upset, of course the prince is upset!" ”

"Oh, too!" Ji Xiao nodded and walked faster: "Then I have to hurry up and help my cousin find out the whereabouts of the county lord." ”

Shattered Star pursed his lips, not quite convinced: "You can forget it, don't report too much hope." Leng Mo and I had already led people around the city, and after three days, we found the wreckage of the carriage. The prince also went to ask for a forbidden ...... Hey, in short, almost all the manpower has been dispatched to no avail, you try to do it, the New Year's Day, go back and accompany the family more. ”

Ji Xiao said with a straight face: "No, I don't know about it, I must find out if I know!" ”

The two quickened their pace, and when they left the palace, someone had already prepared horses, and the two of them rode directly towards the north of the city.

Compared with the west of the city, the north of the city is simply two pictures.

Even during the Chinese New Year, there was a sense of coldness everywhere, and the snow was trampled on by people. Low houses, roofs covered with snow, icicles hanging from the eaves, and the north wind blowing the ragged rags of hunting, and a depression.

Someone heard the sound and peeked out of the room to look, and all the men and women with yellow muscles, thin skin, and ragged clothes saw Ji Xiao and Broken Star were extraordinary, and they were also holding two tall horses

The horse did not dare to go out, and carefully watched the two go away.

Arriving at the destination, Shatterstar pointed to an alley in front of him: "This is it." ”

There are low sheds everywhere around, forming countless alleys that extend in all directions, and there is no way to find out. The two walked to the mouth of the alley, and the wreckage of the carriage of the Marquis of Xiaoyao Mansion had been brought back, leaving only a deep alley with mountains of garbage piled up in it.

Shattered Star slapped his nose: "The smell is too stinky, fortunately it's winter, otherwise you will smoke people to death." ”

Ji Xiao looked around: "You go back, just know the land, I'll check it myself, and I'll tell you if there's news." ”

Originally, I wanted to persuade him, but Shattered Star thought about it and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, go back early." ”

He didn't take it seriously, anyway, he couldn't find a clue and naturally left, and the province said that he hit his enthusiasm.

For a moment, Ji Xiao was the only one left.

He entered the mouth of the alley to take a look, touched everywhere and looked, and frowned for a while, the alley was deep, even during the day, there was a cold and dilapidated atmosphere, and he did not go any further.

Ji Xiao retreated and stood in the middle of a shack, and the snow began to fall in the sky.

"Deng Sangou, come out for me!" Suddenly, he shouted, and the sound was like thunder.

Suddenly, there were countless small sounds from the surrounding shacks, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes were secretly staring at Ji Xiao. After waiting for a while, there was no movement, Ji Xiao became impatient: "Deng Sangou, you are limited to standing in front of Lao Tzu ten times, otherwise you pit Zhao Ba donkey last year......"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Suddenly there was a panicked shout, and I didn't know that a short man with a dogskin and black hat jumped in front of Ji Xiao like a burning buttocks, and said with a dry smile: "What kind of wind blew Ji Zhutou, this is a big New Year's ......"

Grabbing the placket of this person's clothes, Ji Xiao said coldly: "A few days ago, who threw a bunch of carriages in this alley?" ”
