Chapter 304: Completely Missing
Needless to say, Lan Beichen also knew who Xia Jinse suspected.
"You mean Yuyan?"
"It's the princess!" What Xia Jinse said was categorical.
If it was because of her that she attacked Ji Wushuang, she would naturally be her enemy. She offended a lot of people, but Xia Ruxue and Lan Jingcheng were busy regaining the heart of Emperor Yuanqing, and it was at the time of performance that it was impossible to do such a thing.
Istan also had some trouble with her, but judging from the character he performed, it was possible for him to attack her directly, to deceive Ji Wushuang in a roundabout way, and then threaten her, which was too small.
The Zhao family also hated Xia Jinse, but the Zhao family didn't have the courage to dare to attack the people of the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion. Xia Mengyao was frightened, and when she went home yesterday, she heard that she had been in the room for the past few days, how could she have so much thought?
The only most likely is Princess Yuyan, who hates her to the core.
If it was really Princess Yuyan who kidnapped Ji Wushuang, she would naturally come to threaten her, Xia Jinse didn't want to wait, but Lan Beichen said: "Even if it's her, if you ask her directly, she won't admit it, and you will still be threatened." ”
Xia Jinse was uneasy, thinking that this was indeed the case, and said helplessly: "Can you only wait for her to come to the door?" ”
Lan Beichen comforted her: "It's just a guess now, let's wait for the broken star to check it first, after all, the county lord is gone with no people and cars, and it is impossible for no one to see such a big movement." It is best to find out the whereabouts of the county lord, and after secretly rescuing him, he will question the princess, so that there is no restraint, so that he will not be led by the other party. ”
"You think it's a princess too?" Xia Jinse asked him, and when he asked, he felt that he was a little masterless.
Lan Beichen understood her mood, touched her face and said, "Whether it is or not, the princess is indeed very suspicious now, and they will investigate the broken star." I'm going to the palace now, do you stay at home, or do you want to come with me? ”
Xia Jinse didn't want to stay at home and wait, so he wanted to follow him into the palace.
It just so happened that today was the third day of the new year, and it was time to go to the palace to greet the Queen Mother.
Emperor Yuanqing is in the imperial study today, not to review the folds, but to draw leisurely.
Gonggong Lu was waiting beside him, and when he saw Lan Beichen and Xia Jinse coming, he greeted him with a smile and said, "The Ninth Prince and the princess are finally here, and the emperor has been looking forward to it all morning." ”
"Lao Jiu, you just came! Come and see my paintings! ”
Emperor Yuanqing has been resting openly these days, and he is having a lot of fun, without the worry of political affairs, he paints when he has nothing to do, and today he is inspired, and he has painted three, but when it is the turn of the fourth, he always feels that something is missing.
Lan Beichen looked over and saw that Emperor Yuanqing had drawn a picture of a lady.
A young woman was sitting on a boulder beside a mountain stream, washing her hair, her body was sideways, her face was invisible, and her figure was very slim. Just by looking at this scene, he knew who Emperor Yuanqing was drawing.
"Lao Jiu, what do you think of my paintings?" Emperor Yuanqing asked eagerly.
"It's okay, but it doesn't have a verve." Lan Beichen's comments hit the nail on the head.
"What kind of charm is not charm, I don't paint my face, where does the charm come from?" Emperor Yuanqing was not convinced.
"If it's someone else, then it's naturally fine, but if it's a real concubine, there will be no charm." Lan Beichen said lightly.
Emperor Yuanqing didn't expect him to really see it, and said curiously: "Why? ”
Lan Beichen only said: "The emperor is not familiar with the people next to his pillow, and he still asks me?" ”
If he knew why, Emperor Yuanqing would not feel that this painting was wrong, but he didn't want to admit that he didn't know anything about the real concubine, so he stiffened his face: "Of course I know, but you first say your opinion and see if it's the same as what I think." ”
At a glance, he saw through Emperor Yuanqing's strong outfit, Lan Beichen didn't say it thoroughly, pointed to the woman on the painting and said: "The maid painted by the emperor is soft, slender and soft, and her waist is full of hands, but is the real concubine like this?" ”
Emperor Yuanqing still didn't understand, Lan Beichen could only pick out: "This maid's figure is too soft, the real concubine knows martial arts, and her temperament and charm are different from ordinary women, revealing a sense of vigor." The emperor is painting skin but not bones, if I hadn't heard the emperor say this meeting, I really wouldn't have guessed that it was a real concubine. ”
"Ah, I see, yes, yes, yes, that's right!" Emperor Yuanqing finally realized that he had painted the real concubine too weakly. Also, if she was a weak ordinary woman, he would have taken her down a long time ago, would she be helpless for so many years?
Knowing the reason, Emperor Yuanqing tore up the painting and repainted it.
Xia Jinse was waiting on the side, seeing that Lan Beichen was only gossiping with Emperor Yuanqing, and said a word from time to time, he couldn't rush in a hurry.
Seeing Father-in-law Lu on the side, her heart moved, and she walked over and asked, "Father-in-law Lu." ”
Father-in-law Lu hurriedly said: "Princess......"
"How is the princess doing in the past two days?" She wanted to inquire about Princess Yuyan's movements from the side.
When Gonggong Lu heard this, he quickly glanced at Emperor Yuanqing, motioned for Xia Jinse to step aside, and then whispered: "The princess had better not mention the princess in front of the emperor, don't look at the emperor who is okay now, I am angry!" ”
"How?" Xia Jinse's eyes lit up.
"Yesterday the princess came to see the emperor, on the first day of the new year, the princess said that she didn't want to kiss, and quarreled with the emperor. In a moment of excitement, the princess hit the pillar on the spot and almost died! When Gonggong Lu talked about the situation at that time, he still had palpitations, "The emperor hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to save the princess, I heard that I just woke up today, and the jade concubine almost died in a hurry." ”
Xia Jinse took a breath when he heard this: "It turns out that the princess ......"
Gonggong Lu made a booing motion: "Princess, be quiet, if the emperor hears it, he will be upset again." ”
Xia Jinse nodded and didn't mention it, but her suspicions were shaken again.
Princess Yuyan hit the pillar yesterday and fell unconscious, and she only woke up today, how could she attack Ji Wushuang? She always thought that Princess Yuyan had arrested Ji Wushuang and wanted to threaten her, but now this idea has hit a wall again.
Now it's getting more and more confusing, where did Ji Wushuang go?
On the other side, Lan Beichen asked Emperor Yuan Qing casually, saying that he was going to mobilize the forbidden army to investigate something, but Emperor Yuan Qing didn't ask at all, as if he was used to being busy even if it was the New Year, waved his hand, and agreed.
"Check what you want to find out yourself,
As long as you don't bother me. It's the New Year, and I rarely have a few days off, so I don't want to. Worry about the side business. Emperor Yuanqing was painting vigorously, and casually gave Lan Beichen the tiger talisman that mobilized the forbidden army and asked him to leave quickly.
As soon as Lan Beichen and Xia Jinse walked to the door, Emperor Yuanqing added: "Don't forget to go see the Queen Mother." ”
"Got it." Lan Beichen came out of the imperial study.
Xia Jinse told Lan Beichen about Princess Yuyan's situation, and Lan Beichen was also a little surprised: "So, didn't the princess do it?" ”
She became more and more uncertain: "I don't know, it's just panicked." ”
Fortunately, Lan Beichen has already obtained the Tiger Talisman, and mobilizing the forbidden army to find it may be able to have results, if it is usual, Xia Jinse will definitely mutter, the emperor really doesn't take the Tiger Talisman to heart, such an important thing, he gave it to Lan Beichen without asking, aren't you afraid of Lan Beichen's rebellion?
But now, she was only glad that Lan Beichen was able to mobilize the forbidden army and help her find Ji Wushuang.
The forbidden army will not take a holiday because of the New Year, Lan Beichen went to Han Yang, the commander of the forbidden army, and came out after a few words. Xia Jinse was relieved at this time, and went to see the Queen Mother with Lan Beichen before leaving the palace to wait for the news.
At the beginning of the New Year, he should have relaxed his heart and enjoyed the rare leisure, but because of Ji Wushuang's disappearance, Xia Jinse was completely out of mood. In addition to her, presumably the Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion is similar, and Ji Hongbo and his wife's worries will only be much more than her.
This day passed quickly, and in the evening, Shattered Star and Leng Mo came back to report the news, and there was still no whereabouts of Ji Wushuang, as if she had disappeared in the capital with someone and a car.
"The subordinates asked a lot of people, but they didn't notice the carriage of the unequaled county lord, and no one found out where she went."
Shattered Star analyzed: "My subordinates think that it's not that no one really sees it, maybe it's because it's too normal, no one pays attention, even if the car is out of the city, it's possible." ”
Xia Jinse immediately asked, "Will it really be out of the city?" ”
Shattered Star had already thought of this: "My subordinates sent someone to check at the gate of the city, and I didn't find the car of the Marquis of Xiaoyao Mansion going out of the city during that time period, but if the Wushuang County Lord changed to another car, it would be uncertain." ”
But now that even the car is gone, it proves that at least the car of the Xiaoyao Mansion is still in the capital, but whether it is a car or a person, it is very simple to hide in the capital, unless you check it door to door, you can't find it at all.
In the next two days, there was still no news of Ji Wushuang, and Xia Jinse was almost desperate.
It's been three whole days, and even if Ji Wushuang is still alive, I'm afraid that something will happen if he is recovered. Fortunately, no one knows yet, even if she is really hurt, her reputation will not be damaged, but the truth is ......
The tears of Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou Shizi were dry, and she didn't dare to say it to the outside world, Ji Hongbo publicized that his wife was sick, and no one was allowed to see her except for a pair of children who were sick, so as not to be unlucky after the illness.
Xia Jinse can almost imagine that Wen is looking forward to news from her daughter every day, but there is no news, where did she, as a mother who loves her daughter, bear this kind of blow?
I don't even have the idea of celebrating the New Year, and Xia Jinse has no taste for eating.
Lan Beichen accompanied her all day long and made a frying for her with his own hands
Fish, she only holds chopsticks and doesn't eat it.
"Jinse, if you do this again, even if the county lord finds it, you won't have the strength to see her." Lan Beichen was also in a bad mood by her, but he usually kept his mind hidden, but it was no different from usual, and he only patiently coaxed her to eat.
"Lan Beichen, I'm upset......" Xia Jinse knew this, but she really couldn't eat it.
Ji Wushuang was missing because of her, if it weren't for the other party asking in her name, maybe Ji Wushuang wouldn't have left the house and wouldn't have disappeared. Every night, she couldn't sleep, she was just afraid that Lan Beichen would be worried, so she pretended to sleep, and after a few days, she was also in poor spirits, sleepy and couldn't sleep.
Looking at her emaciated face, Lan Beichen said softly: "You finish eating first, and I'll ask Han Yang later, maybe there are already clues?" ”
He never thought that he would one day coax a woman to eat like this, and he was willing.
Xia Jinse nodded, not wanting Lan Beichen to worry, so he could only eat as much as possible.
At this time, Mu Xiang came in, and whispered at the door: "Princess, Young Master Ji Biao has come to pay New Year's greetings...... In the past few days, there has been an endless stream of people who have come to the Jin Palace's New Year's greetings, and they have all been blocked by the housekeeper, but today it is Ji Xiao, and the housekeeper is not sure if the princess will see it, so he asked people to ask.
"Since you're here, I'll see you, someone will talk to you, and save you from thinking nonsense." Lan Beichen decided first, and asked Mu Xiang to invite Ji Xiao in.
Ji Xiao really came to pay New Year's greetings, and brought a lot of New Year's goods, and when he saw Lan Beichen and Xia Jinse, he smiled: "Ninth Prince, Cousin Xia, I'm here to pay you New Year's greetings." ”
He is bold and diligent, and Lan Beichen admires him. After saying a few words casually, Ji Xiao handed over the gift he brought to Mu Xiang, and said that he originally wanted to come with his father, but his father was not available, so he came by himself.
Xia Jinse squeezed out a smile: "Speaking of which, I should have visited my cousin, I haven't seen him for so long since I came back!" ”
Ji Xiao smiled: "It's okay, there will be time in the future, I came today to try my luck, and I thought that you and the prince went to Puji Temple to make incense." Two days ago, I accompanied my mother back from Puji Temple, and I almost crashed into the car of the unequaled county lord, but fortunately, the county lord was fine. ”
Xia Jinse grabbed his hand: "What did you say!?" ”
