Chapter 242 is not a self-imposed trap
Murong Mian was sullen for two days, and he couldn't relieve it, but when he arrived outside the city, the sky was high and the earth was wide, the moon and stars were bright, and the depression in his heart seemed to disperse a little. He thought about it for a long time, this matter was his fault, he couldn't blame Bai Qianfan, he would have a showdown with her when he went back tomorrow, so as to save any moths in the future.
I thought about it, my heart was at ease, and I had a rare good night's sleep. It's a pity that he didn't sleep for long, and he heard a noise outside the account, and he hated being disturbed when he slept, so he coughed unhappily, "Who is arguing?" ”
Jia Tong replied through the cowhide account, "Back to the prince, it was the chief manager who sent someone to say that the princess was gone." ”
Hearing the clanging inside, Murong Mian rushed out with an arrow step, with a cold wind, and drank, "What do you mean by not seeing?" Are all the dead people in the house? Prepare your horse to return home! ”
Ning Jiu had already led Ma Hou to the side, and as soon as he listened to his instructions, he immediately led the horse forward, Murong Mian flew on the horse, and the whip flicked hard, like a lightning bolt disappeared into the night, Ning Jiu and Jia Tong struggled to catch up.
The prince of Chu was furious and ran all the way, who dared to rob people in his mansion, was he tired of being crooked? After a three-hour journey, he returned to the city in less than two hours, and the sound of horses' hooves was rapid, and his trampling on the empty streets was particularly loud. The little guy on the door saw a horse coming from a distance, and knew that it was the prince who was returning to the house, so he immediately opened the door.
Murong Mian hit the horse and went in, it was dark outside, but the house was illuminated by countless lanterns and torches as bright as day, seeing him come back, Hao Pingguan took the minions Hulala to kneel, he cried with a sad face, "Lord, the old slave is guilty, the princess, she's gone." ”
Murong Mian calmed down when he saw this, and his face sank like water, "Have you looked for it?" ”
"I've searched for everything, and I've even searched the back mountains, but there's nowhere to go."
Gu Qingdie blessed, sobbing quietly on the side: "Please punish the concubine, it's the concubine's body that is not good, knowing that the princess is unhappy today, I didn't take good care of her, and this happened." ”
Murong Mian heard what she said, and said coldly: "Get up, why is the princess unhappy today?" ”
"This," Gu Qingdie hesitated for a moment, "probably because she was grounded and not free, you know the princess, she likes to wander around, and when she is restricted, she is naturally unhappy." ”
"You're seeing her today?"
"Yes," Gu Qingdie hung her head and said softly: "The prince of the previous child instructed the concubine to paint a portrait of the princess, so ......"
"Did you draw it?"
"It's drawn."
"I'll take a look."
Gu Qingdie sent Ziqiao back to get the portrait.
Murong Mian put his hands behind him, looked at the pavilions hidden in the night and didn't speak, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze and cast it on her face again, "According to the meaning of Princess Shu, the princess ran out because she was unhappy?" ”
Gu Qingdie was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, "The concubine didn't dare to make a conclusion, she just told the prince what she knew." ”
After Ning Jiu entered the mansion, he didn't need to be instructed by Murong Mian, he went straight to Lanyue Pavilion, and looked carefully inside and out before coming to him to talk back.
"Lord Wang, there is no trace of an invasion by outsiders, judging by his subordinates, it should be the princess who ran out by herself."
Murong Mian thought of this early on, looking at the entire Dongyue Kingdom, no one dared to come to his mansion to rob people, and then thinking of Bai Qianfan's amazing kung fu, it is not difficult to conclude that she ran out by herself.
It's just so late, what is she running out for? What if a girl's house encounters a bad person?
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, and asked Jia Tong to take his token to the Jingshi garrison camp to transfer the Jin army to find someone, and Ning Jiu took people to inquire at the gates of each city, and first found out that she was haunted out of the city? In case the little girl is unhappy, go away and fly high...... Just thinking about it makes him worry.
scolded with hatred in his heart: The white-eyed wolf who can't be raised is locked up for two days, and she will run away from home, okay, you go, don't come back if you leave.
As soon as the person was scattered, Ziqiao took the portrait and unfolded it under the lamp, the person on the portrait really looked sad, and Murong Mian became more and more unhappy in his heart, so he rolled the portrait indiscriminately, threw it on the ground, and gasped for a few breaths.
Gu Qingdie secretly observed on the side, and saw that the prince of Chu was so angry that his eyes were on fire, so he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "The prince is angry, the princess is still a child, don't be like her, the concubine has also persuaded the princess today, but the princess said," Speaking of this, she paused and stopped talking.
Murong Mian really asked, "What did she say?" ”
"The princess said, saying that she didn't like it here, and that it was like a cage, she would go out sooner or later, and the concubine thought that the princess was just complaining, how could she think that she really had this thought." She secretly glanced at Murong Mian, and then said, "The concubine persuaded the princess, saying that the princess treats the princess so well, why do you always want to go out?" But the princess said that she was not here, glory and wealth were nothing, and freedom outside was what she liked. ”
Murong Mian sneered in her heart, I'm afraid there are still people she is worried about outside!
He was angry and hateful, his heart seemed to have a fire, and he couldn't stay in the house, so he simply rode out on horseback, and he really wanted to catch that little girl and beat him up immediately! Isn't the ambition here, it's very good, the title of the dignified princess of Chu is not in your eyes, and she just wants to live a free and easy life with Du Changfeng, right?
Time passed little by little, but Bai Qianfan was still in the sea, there was no news at all, the guards at the city gate had asked one by one, and no one left the city. Therefore, Bai Qianfan is still in the city, but where is the bottom?
Murong Mian is very anxious, he has searched all the inns and restaurants in Lin'an City, but there is no shadow, he can't go door to door to search the bar, it's too much fanfare, he doesn't look good on his face, in case the emperor is alarmed, maybe he will be punished for the crime of scratching the people.
Dongfang gradually revealed that the belly of the fish was white, the sky was about to dawn, and as soon as the day dawned, it would be even more difficult to find, he sighed heavily, turned the horse's head and went to the house, ready to carefully interrogate the laurel and moonincense again, maybe there could be any clues.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, Ning Jiu was out of breath and caught up, "Lord Wang, there is news." ”
Murong Mian's spirit was shocked, and he sat on the horse and asked, "Where is the princess?" ”
Ning Jiu dismounted and arched his hand, "The guard at the south gate just remembered that it was about a moment of ugliness, and a girl went to the city gate to inquire where Du Tidu lived, and asked him about his injuries. ”
Murong Mian's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was frost under her eyes, so it was so, she ran out because she was worried about Du Changfeng! No wonder the portrait looks desolate and unhappy, thinking of her lover!
He gritted his teeth and asked, "Where is she?" ”
Ning Jiu hesitated for a moment, "The guards saw that she was suspicious, and they were escorted to the Yamen of the Yin Mansion and temporarily imprisoned in prison." ”
He thought that Murong Mian would be furious, but the prince of Chu just snorted lightly, "I think how capable she is, she hasn't thrown herself into the net." ”
