Han Chong wanted to speak several times, but he couldn't say anything.

He was silent for a long time, and finally endured the pull of the wound on his arm, and raised his hand to push off the blindfold.

The ward was empty—Heng Yuanjun was gone.

"Ming Gong ......"

……

Ai Songqing woke up in the morning and heard a familiar noise from the outhouse, she rubbed her eyes and got up, Bai Ling was watering the orchid placed on the windowsill.

"You're up?" Ai Songqing was sleepy-eyed, "What time is it?" ”

"Morning," Bai Ling smiled back, "it's already late." ”

Ai Songqing was stunned for a moment, and almost jumped and ran back, "It's too late!" I'm going to—"

"Someone came to the music room in the morning, saying that there was something important to discuss this morning," Bai Ling put down the kettle and chased Ai Songqing's house, she leaned against the door and said with a smile, "So the morning class is canceled, but you can still go to the music room in the afternoon to practice - if you want to." ”

"Were the masters there that afternoon?"

"I don't know, but I guess not." Bai Ling replied.

"Huh...... Why? ”

"It seems that there is some official task from the Teaching Workshop Division, and they have to arrange a new play." Bai Ling smiled, "The masters of the music workshop have all entered the pear orchard this morning, and it is estimated that they will not come out in the next few days." ”

“…… That's right. Ai Songqing's dressing hand slowed down, and she gently wiped the sweat on her forehead, "What kind of drama is it, it is so important." ”

"I don't know, but there are special people in the palace to keep an eye on it, and it is estimated that it is very important."

After breakfast, Ai Songqing changed her clothes and went out, and after seeing her leave, Bai Ling also changed her clothes and waited in the house.

This morning, when the servant of the Lan Zi came to inform her of the news of the closure of the music room today, he also brought another news to her by the way—a big man is coming to visit today, and he is expected to come around noon.

Bai Ling waited with a little curiosity, and when Lan Zihao finally sent someone to lead her to a secluded reception room again, she was also surprised for a moment.

Zheng Mi changed into her regular clothes and sat in the room.

Zheng Mi is also middle-aged, so the people of Lanzi removed the low table and cushions, and specially prepared high chairs and round tables for him.

As soon as he saw Bai Ling, Zheng Mi stood up, with a bit of emotion on his face after a long absence, "Bai Siyao is fine." ”

"Lord Zheng!" Bai Ling was really a little happy, "You...... How did you know I was here? ”

"Little Hou Ye told me."

Bai Ling's heart rippled slightly-Zeng Jiuyan was gone, but she was entrusted with another person.

Zheng Mi had a wry smile on his face, "Are you okay these days?" Did the Dingbian Marquis Mansion send someone to make it difficult for you? ”

Bai Ling shook his head, "...... Why did the Dingbian Marquis Mansion send someone to embarrass me? ”

Zheng Mi waved his sleeves, wanting to make a break to bypass the topic, but Bai Ling asked again and again, Zheng Mi couldn't hide it, so he had to say, "Hey, it was not long ago." The little marquis left a letter and ran away from home. ”

"Really?" Bai Ling's eyes widened and he asked in some surprise, "Where did he go?" ”

“…… No one is gone, where can I inquire about this? Zheng Mi shook her head, "Mrs. Hou also sued me, saying that there was a girl in this hundred flowers who abducted his son. Yesterday, I heard that Hou Ye also brought people to Baihuaya to make a scene, didn't you see it? ”

Bai Ling shook her head—she and Lan Zhijun had been playing chess in the courtyard all day yesterday, and no one had any trouble coming to her at night.

Come to think of it, this matter should have been suppressed by Lan Zhijun.

Bai Ling lowered his eyes and smiled, "Their son ran away, how can you blame the girl of Baihuaya?" ”

Zheng Mi glanced at Bai Ling, "Xiao Siyao is still pretending to be stupid with me here, isn't that the girl from Baihuaya you?" What is the reason why the little marquis has been born at home for half a year, will you know? ”

"I don't know." Bai Ling shook his head with a smile.

"Okay, if you don't know, you don't know, I'm not here for the old marquis today." Zheng Mi also smiled on his face, he took out an open letter from his arms, and handed it to Bai Ling's eyes, "I am here to deliver the letter for Sun Ge Lao. ”

"Sun Ge Old ......"

Bai Ling's brows furrowed slightly, and she took the letter with both hands, and the middle of the envelope read, "Metropolitan Concert House Daily Letter".

Bai Ling opened the letter and asked curiously, "What is the place of the Metropolitan Concert Academy?" ”

"It's the place where the newspaper was sent." Zheng Mi said softly, "Each state capital has a special marching officer, who submits the records of local events to the Beijing Division every day, and the Beijing Division then sets up the Capital Concert Academy, organizes the affairs of various places into a book, makes the report of the day, and then sends it to relevant people and other ......."

Bai Ling took out the letter inside, and when he heard Zheng Mi's introduction, he suddenly reacted - isn't this the ...... Newspapers?

“…… This is part of the letter sent by the Jiangzhou government. Zheng Mi said softly.

Hearing the words "Jiangzhou Mansion", Bai Ling suddenly thought of something, "Could it be-"

Zheng Mi laughed, "Take a look." ”

She quickly shook off the letter paper, only to see the first line of synopsis, and her face was completely bloody--the newly arrived father and son in the Yaxing Forest Pavilion in Jiangzhou Mansion, on the way to collect medicine in the wilderness, unfortunately encountered mountain bandits, and both died. The body is suspected to have fallen off a cliff and its whereabouts are currently unknown.

Zheng Mi hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you look down!" ”

Without Zheng Mi's reminder, Bai Ling had already read down ten lines at a glance, her hands trembled, and she only felt that her eyes were quickly blurry.

She raised her hand several times to wipe her eyes, then gritted her teeth and continued to look down.

- There were no corpses left at the scene, but there were blood splatters everywhere in the bamboo forest, and judging by the number and cross-section of broken bamboos at the scene, there was an extremely tragic fight here.

The broken carriage of the Xinglin medical officer was straddling the side of the road, the horses were nowhere to be found, and all the valuables on the cart, including the dry rations they had brought with them, were gone—the government concluded that this was a raid against the lone travelers, most likely the work of the Qingpao bandits scattered near Jiangzhou Mansion.

Bai Ling vaguely felt that something was wrong, and then found that there was another news behind him.

Jin Yiwei commanded Han Chong, who was ordered to inspect the Fusi of Jiangzhou Town, and was found on the outskirts of Jiangzhou on the same day, seriously injured and hanging by a thread, suspected to be committed by the same group of Qingpao bandits.

In addition, since all the swords and other weapons on Han Chong's body were confiscated, it is impossible to compare them with the knife marks at the scene of the bamboo forest, and it is not yet certain whether he participated in the vicious fight in the bamboo forest.

Reading this, a complete guess had already floated in Bai Ling's mind.

Her breathing gradually became shorter, and she looked at Zheng Mi with tears in her eyes, "This...... This is......? ”

"Originally, there was a paragraph on the letter, but the elder of the pavilion ordered someone to delete it when it was published," Zheng Mi said softly, "A few days before the incident, a villager happened to bump into a stranger fishing in a mountain stream, and the man's face was young, but his eyebrows were as white as an old man's.

"The emperor is also in Jiangzhou now," Zheng Mi breathed a sigh of relief, with a somewhat gentle smile, "The Holy Lord personally inquired about this matter, and this matter will be decided according to the chaos of the Qingpao bandits, and will not be investigated." ”
