Chapter 381: Search
At the beginning of summer, the peach is pruning the branches and leaves of jasmine at the door of the Qingquan Temple, and summer is the season of jasmine, and it is always able to bloom such white and fragrant small flowers, which are really pleasing.
"Auntie! Aunt! β
It was originally a refreshing thing, but I saw Nanzhu coming in from the palace gate in a hurry, and when she came in, she stumbled on the threshold, and she almost didn't stand firm.
"What's going on? Is the palace on fire or whatever, it's in a hurry. β
Xia Chutao has been in Qingquan Hall for a long time, and it is inconvenient for her to go out to deal with anything with such a figure now, so as soon as she sees Nanzhu like this, she knows that something is going to happen.
"Auntie, it's not good, Ji promised to be gone."
Nanzhu said this almost out of breath, and the early summer peach that was still cutting the branches and leaves easily could no longer be relaxed.
"How could Ji not see the good promise? There are so many palace people in the huge Weiyang Palace, can't they even look down on individuals? β
It's not a small thing that the concubine in the palace is gone, not to mention that Ji agreed, this little girl's words are still one that Xia Chutao is more concerned about, and when such news comes, Xia Chutao naturally can't sit still.
Nanzhu seems to be very difficult to understand this matter, but the specific thing is also unknown.
"The specific thing is not clear, it is said that the father-in-law of the respectful room just went to hand over the news that Ji promised to sleep, and as soon as the father-in-law's front foot left, Ji promised to run out with a black face."
Bedchamber?
Although it is true that she is the emperor's concubine, Ji Yu's age is indeed a little younger, but Zhao Yufeng actually summoned Ji Yu to go to bed for the second time, which really surprised Xia Chutao.
"Even such a small girl is not spared, it seems that men are really not a good thing......"
Xia Chutao couldn't help but sneer, Ji promised to be the second waiter, and this matter was really unexpected by Xia Chutao.
"Have you looked for it carefully?"
Xia Chutao felt that this matter still had to be investigated carefully, and what was the reason why Ji promised to do this, Xia Chutao guessed in his heart.
"Is it because Ji promised not to sleep?"
"I have searched everywhere in the palace, and the palace people of Weiyang Palace have just turned Weiyang Palace over, and other places in the palace are also being found, but it is still difficult to find someone who deliberately hides in such a big palace."
Nanzhu is obviously also anxious about this matter, after all, it is not a trivial matter, Ji promised to be the concubine who will serve tonight, but at this time it is gone, if Your Majesty asks about people, what kind of explanation should he make.
"Weiyang Palace has already explained that people from many places have helped, and they also said that they hope that the Shangyi Bureau can help find it."
It is indeed not easy to find someone in such a large palace, Xia Chutao felt that even if he helped to find it, he nodded.
"It's supposed to be, let's go find it."
When the jade pot came out and heard about it, he hurriedly sent some people to find it, Xia Chutao stayed in the Qingquan Hall because of his inconvenience, but even so, Xia Chutao sat in the Qingquan Hall like a pins and needles, and he was very uneasy.
People came and went, but no one brought the news that they had found someone, the sun on the horizon had gradually sunk, and it seemed that it was about to fall into the night, and if they couldn't hand over the people at that time, what kind of crime was still unknown.
"No, Auntie, I've searched everywhere, but no."
The jade pot gasped and brought back the news of the last person who had gone out.
Xia Chutao looked at the jade pot steadily, and also felt that this matter was tricky.
Now it's not that I can send it to Zhao Yufeng, Xia Chutao is afraid that the situation in front of him is that Ji promised to do something, such a person who is ignorant of personnel, many things are the most naΓ―ve and simple thoughts, and there is no scheming with the city government at all.
"Oh no......"
There are so many palace people, at least hundreds of palace people have not found anyone in this palace, and at the beginning of summer, Tao thought of a little bit and his scalp was numb.
"Well...... Did you find it? β
Xia Chutao can only think of this, according to what she has often seen before, if she is killed, it must be in the well.
Xia Chutao just said tentatively, but the face of the jade pot in front of him turned white with fright.
Her lips trembled, obviously frightened by Xia Chutao.
"What does my aunt say, it's better not to talk nonsense."
"Yes, bah blah."
Xia Chutao patted his mouth, it was indeed not suitable to think about it before this matter had eyebrows, Xia Chutao also felt that his idea was very bad, so he could only cover his mouth.
At this time, an idea crossed over from Xia Chutao's mind.
She looked at the jade pot in front of her, and asked the jade pot with a trace of nervousness and expectation.
"Have you found the vicinity of the lotus pond behind the Qingquan Palace?"
The jade pot was also stunned, as if Xia Chutao's words reminded her, she patted her head, the light in her eyes was cold, and she said happily.
"Not yet, the maid will ask someone to find it."
Seeing that the jade pot turned around and was about to leave, he was pulled by Xia Chutao.
Xia Chutao's face was very solemn and said to the jade pot.
"I'll have to go with you, and if I find it, she won't be able to listen to you."
Yuhu also knew that Xia Chutao had been in a relationship with Ji Cheng recently, and maybe it would be more useful for Xia Chutao to go, so he nodded and helped Xia Chutao out of the door.
The two of them followed the route of the day in the direction of the Manna Pavilion, the lotus pond at night was very quiet, and the fireflies gradually rose from the grass, exuding their own faint light in this early night.
If you look closely, there is silence all around, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like there are people, it's really too quiet, quiet to an eerie level.
"Auntie, why do I think Ji promised not to come here?"
Not only is Xia Chutao's heart bottomless, but the jade pot holding Xia Chutao obviously feels that this place is too quiet, and no matter how you look at it, you don't think that anyone will come.
"If she hadn't come here, I wouldn't know where to look for her."
Xia Chutao felt that Ji promised no reason not to come here, and she had also said in front of Xia Chutao before that this place gave her a feeling of returning to her hometown.
When people are faced with difficulties, they instinctively look for places where they can feel safe, and Xia Chutao feels that this place is the place that can give Ji a sense of security.
"I think she should be right here, look carefully."
The only people who came here to find it were Xia Chutao and the jade pot, Xia Chutao was afraid that it would not be good if there were too many people, and it would have some impact on Ji Yu, so he could only find it separately from the jade pot.
The jade pot understood the meaning of Xia Chu Tao, and said to Xia Chu Tao.
"Auntie should be careful when looking for it, and carefully avoid those water's edges, those places can be slippery, so be careful of your step."
Xia Chutao nodded, she still knew such things.
After the two of them separated, they looked around the lotus pond in this area, and Xia Chutao also felt that this piece was too quiet, and it didn't look like a sense of human breath.
With the evening breeze, lotus flowers, and fireflies, I have to say that this place is indeed relaxing.
But at the beginning of summer, the peach could only see the lotus flowers and the lotus leaves, and there was really no human figure.
"Where will Ji promise?"
"Little Peach, in the pool on your left."
"Yes, yes, the lotus flowers there seem to be scattered and not so dense."
"Has anyone been in?"
The audience's perspective is different from Xia Chutao's, and they all tend to be a little biased towards God's perspective, and it is normal to be able to see where Xia Chutao can't see.
At the beginning of Xia, Tao looked at the place where the audience said, and sure enough, he saw a trace of strangeness.
The lotus pond is very dense with lotus flowers, but this place seems to be a little weird, and there is a very narrow road between the lotus flowers.
"Ji promised?"
Xia Chutao tentatively called to that place, but there was no sound, and the only one who answered Xia Chutao was Xi Xi's breeze, whispering softly in Xia Chutao's ear.
"Ji promised?"
Xia Chutao felt a little stunned in her heart, but she felt a little weird after watching it for a long time, and she didn't know whether to continue to scream, who knew what was in it.
But still no one answered Xia Chutao, Xia Chutao stood forward at this time, only to find that there were stones stretching towards that place, although they were not big stones, but they were enough for a light person to step on.
Xia Chutao looked at the stone in front of her with some hesitation, her body really didn't allow her to take such a risk, Xia Chutao tentatively stretched out her foot but took it back, thinking that it would be better to wait until the jade pot came over and let her go in to check it.
Just as Xia Chutao was thinking so, Xia Chutao heard a rustling sound from the lotus, which frightened Xia Chutao and immediately took a step back.
She retreated to the shore with some trepidation, and saw very clearly that the lotus flowers in that area began to move, and then slowly pressed towards the side of the early summer peach, obviously something was coming.
Xia Chutao was a little scared, because she wasn't sure what was inside, and the current environment was still very unfavorable for her.
Just when Xia Chutao was worried in his heart, he saw a small figure come out of it.
Ji promised to rub his worried eyes, as if he had just woken up, and looked at Xia Chutao and muttered a little confused.
"Aunt Shangyi......"
