Chapter 110: Elopement
The person guarding the door slowly pushed open the door, looked at Mu Yu with straight eyes, and didn't say anything.
Feeling that the visitor had no malicious intent, Mu Yu, who confirmed his conjecture, was even more puzzled, "Where is this, who are you?" ”
The man still didn't answer, but walked to the table, set up the dishes and chopsticks, and waited for Mu Yu to come over to eat.
Mu Yu stood at the table and glanced at the food that was still warm on the table, "Who knows if there is no poison in your meal, I don't dare to eat it." ”
The girl heard Mu Yu's questioning, but she didn't get angry, picked up the chopsticks, and ate a bite of each dish, in order to prove to Mu Yu that there was no poison in this dish.
In this way, Mu Yu is also more convinced that the person who brought him here has no malicious intent.
But no matter what she asked the man, she couldn't get an answer, who was locked up and didn't want to hurt herself?
Moreover, the people who attacked him today have obviously been hiding behind the Buddha's body for a long time and have been prepared for a long time, so these people still know their itinerary.
It was strange to come to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings today, and I encountered such a thing, could it be that Shen Mei did it? My mother has been in the boudoir all the year round, and she will definitely not make friends with these strange people, so could it be my father?
But my father didn't have a reason to do that, what did he lock himself up here for? Father wants to prevent himself from marrying Xie Chongning?
But all this is just speculation after all, Mu Yu casually picked up a few mouthfuls of food, stood up and walked to the door, and the little girl who had been watching her immediately blocked the door, spreading her arms to prevent her from taking a step forward.
"You're not letting me out?" Mu Yu asked.
The little girl still looked at her stunned, and didn't answer, Mu Yu did a few tests, what she did in the house, the little girl didn't care, but she couldn't go out.
"Okay, if you don't go out, you won't go out, I'll sleep, it's okay to sleep!" Mu Yu glanced up and down at the girl in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, not outstanding in appearance, with a few freckles on his face, but it was also cute.
Under the care of the little girl, Mu Yu sat back on the bed, the little girl stared at the bed for a long time, and saw that Mu Yu really didn't move, so she packed up the dishes and chopsticks and left the room.
Mu Yu listened to the door through the gauze tent, listening to the door seemed to be silent, stepping on the ground barefoot, for fear of causing a little noise, she slowly pushed the windows in the room, but all the windows in the room had been locked, and it seemed that only the door was the only way out.
She pierced the window paper on the door with her water-stained fingertips, and peered through the fingertip-sized hole, not wanting her to squint and see a slowly approaching face outside the hole.
"Scared the hell out of me." She clutched her chest and took a few steps back, her chest rising and falling, so she was not afraid, who was that little girl, and even found out about her small movements.
After all, he didn't know the origin of the other party, and Mu Yu didn't dare to provoke them, so he had to obediently climb back into bed and lie down peacefully.
But the Luanping Marquis Mansion didn't sleep all night, the young lady didn't find it, and no one in the mansion had the heart to sleep.
Mu Yi, who had questions, returned to the mansion and wanted to ask his father if he had taken the rumor away, but when he saw that his father was like an ant on a hot pot, he also muttered in his heart.
Could it be that he really misunderstood? Didn't my father send someone to take the rumor away?
"Father, I went to investigate with Master Xie again, but I didn't find any trace of anyone else, do you think it was really a rumor that ran away from marriage?" Mu Yi still decided to test it.
Mu Heyun snorted coldly, "No matter what, you have to find the rumor first, now no one can be sure whether the rumor was arrested or ran away by herself, I can't let the rumor be in danger." ”
"But there are two pieces of clothing missing from Yu'er." Mu Yi continued.
Mu Heyun hesitated for a moment, "I also heard Biyue say, if she really ran away by herself, this stinky girl, when she comes back, I will teach her a lesson!" ”
Mu Heyun's answer was not flawed at all, and he really looked like an uninformed old father.
The government is still sending people to look for it, and the top priority is to find the rumor, the longer the time, the greater the possibility that the rumor will be in danger.
Xu was because of the Luanping Marquis Mansion and Dali Temple's Xingshi to find someone, and the disappearance of Miss Luanping Marquis soon spread in the capital.
Most of the voices are saying that Miss Houfu went to the mountain temple to pray for blessings and was kidnapped by bad people, but there are also discordant small voices, secretly rumored that Miss Houfu didn't want to marry Master Xie, so she ran away with her family behind her back.
People all have the same characteristic, that is, the stranger the thing, the more they are willing to believe it, and by the time the matter reached the ears of several of them the next day, it had already become Miss Hou Fu eloping with the wild man.
"This Miss Houfu is really bold, she dares to run away from marriage, she thinks that Lord Xie, the Dali Siqing, is in vain? I bet that for two silver, this Lord Xie will definitely be able to arrest Miss Hou Fu back. ”
Fang Xiao listened to the discussions in his ears, and coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, "These people are really talking nonsense, Miss Mu is definitely not that kind of person." ”
Xie Chongning gave Fang Xiao a look indifferently, what kind of person Mu Yu was, he knew where he needed Fang Xiao to explain.
"It's just that it's weird, every household in the city has been searched, and we have already sent people to block the city gate, and not a single fly can fly out, why is it that it has been two days, and there is no news of Miss Mu?"
"How many more haven't been searched?" Mu Yu must still be in the capital, but they still didn't search carefully enough.
"This is a lot, ordinary people's homes have been checked, but some officials' houses, it is not easy to check." Fang Xiao was embarrassed, seeing that the wedding date of these two was coming, but there was no news of Mu Yu so far, and Fang Xiao was also worried.
"There must still be places that haven't been found, check again." There is no possibility in the mansion of those officials, there is no reason for them to hide Mu rumors, and even if they do, their own eyeliner has already been detected.
Mu Yu, who was locked in the house, called every day not to work, and called the earth and the earth, except for being in a daze, the rest of the time was spent teasing the little girl.
This little girl always looks stunned, and she refuses to open her mouth to speak, "Why don't you speak?" Could it be that someone won't let you talk to me? ”
The little girl blinked at the air, and finally opened her mouth slightly at Mu Yu.
Mu Yu looked over curiously, but when he saw that the little girl's mouth was empty, her hairs stood up, "You...... How so? ”
No wonder this little girl refuses to speak, it is because she has no tongue and cannot speak at all.
The little girl turned her head calmly, she had long been accustomed to having no tongue, and she had no way to answer Mu Yu's question.
As for Mu Yu, since she knew that this little girl had no tongue, her attitude towards her changed from mildness to pity, although she couldn't leave this room, but the two got along harmoniously.
After the second search, there was still no result, Mu Yi was even more anxious, her sister had a few catties and taels, if she really ran away from the marriage by herself, she would have been caught a long time ago.
But now, so many people have gone down to find out one by one, and there is no news at all, which can only prove that the rumor did not run away from marriage.
You've searched where you should be, but where else can you start?
"Master Xie, don't you have any news over there?"
Xie Chongning shook his head and suddenly asked, "Have you found the abandoned mansion?" ”
"I've looked for it, but I haven't." Mu Yi said desperately.
Xie Chongning's gaze slowly panned to Mu Yi's back, "Has Brother Mu noticed anything abnormal in the mansion these days?" ”
Abnormal? Xie Chongning is talking about his father? "It's not like a father." Mu Yi frowned, "My father seems to be more anxious than me these days, and I believe that my father doesn't know about the rumors." ”
"Then the eldest brother has personally searched every corner of the house?" Xie Chongning asked again.
"The house has been searched."
"What about the second and third rooms?"
Hearing Xie Chongning's question, Mu Yi was a little unsure, "They should have searched it, could it be that Lord Xie suspects that the rumors are in the mansion?" ”
"The most dangerous place is the safest place." Xie Chongning said leisurely, his subordinates had already turned Cheng Cheng upside down, but there was still no news.
Any household suddenly has one more person, which can attract attention, but five days have passed, and there is still no news at all, so now there is only one possibility.
"Then I'll check in the mansion with Master Xie." Although Mu Yi was a little suspicious of Xie Chongning's guess, he was not afraid of 10,000, just in case, what if the rumor was really in the mansion all the time and never left?
As soon as Xie Chongning walked to the backyard, Mu Heyun suddenly walked over, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Father? I'll take Master Xie around the house. Mu Yi replied.
"Your sister can't be found, and you still have the mind to go around the house? Why don't you hurry up and find someone for me. Mu Heyun pointed at Mu Yi coldly, looking anxious to jump to his feet.
Xie Chongning chuckled, no wonder the Luanping Marquis Mansion sent so many people to look for Mu Yu outside, it turned out to be dark under the lamp. "Father-in-law, don't worry, Xu is naughty and has been hiding in the house and has never gone out."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I've already sent someone to go up and down in the house, where is there still someone? Mu Heyun's tone was a little wrong, "Could it be that you suspect that our Luanping Marquis Mansion secretly hid the rumors?" ”
"The son-in-law doesn't dare, it's just that the rumors are naughty, she can deceive her father-in-law, but she can't deceive me." Xie Chongning smiled even more, and regardless of Mu Heyun's obstruction, he walked to the third room.
The courtyard has always been taken care of, but it is not desolate, Xie Chongning opened the doors one by one, but they were all empty, and there was no trace of Mu Yu.
"The rumor shouldn't be here." Mu Yi searched the remaining rooms, but found nothing.
Xie Chongning nodded calmly, and then they went to the second room, and after a careful search, they were all empty, "It seems that I have thought too much." ”
"I said a long time ago that the rumor is not in the house, and you still don't believe it." Mu Heyun snorted disdainfully.
