Chapter 513: Entering the Palace to Investigate
Qi Mo's face, which was gradually slumping because of his tired body, immediately walked towards Song Lingyue with a relaxed smile when he saw Song Lingyue.
But Song Lingyue was in a worried environment, so she didn't notice at all that at the moment when she didn't know it, Qi Mo had already slowly walked to her side.
"How? It's your first day on the job, right, how are you doing? Is there anything in your body that you don't feel well? Qi Mo is not worried about whether Song Lingyue's existence will bring much change to Zishutang, nor does he care how much Song Lingyue can make a lot of contributions in Zishutang, in his opinion, he only hopes that Song Lingyue's body is healthy and her person is safe, and this is enough.
However, Qi Mo's voice couldn't pull Song Lingyue's sanity back, but she was in a state of fugue, mechanically stepped down from the carriage, and then left with an expressionless look.
Qi Mo immediately noticed that something was wrong with Song Lingyue, and he immediately stretched out his hand to grab Song Lingyue's arm, pulling Song Lingyue's whole person in front of him.
Song Lingyue didn't come back to her senses until her face slammed into Qi Mo's chest, and she wanted to let out a scream from her mouth, but suddenly a very familiar taste suddenly broke into her nasal cavity, she knew that this inexplicable familiar feeling came from Qi Mo, so she secretly forced the shock that suddenly rose in her heart.
With a puzzled expression, Song Lingyue raised her head slightly and silently glanced at Qi Mo, who was holding her at this moment, and then said absentmindedly.
"Why are you back?"
Qi Mo already knew Song Lingyue well, and she could judge whether Song Lingyue was talking to her from her heart just by relying on the tone of Song Lingyue's voice.
At this time, Qi Mo knew in his heart that Song Lingyue was just saying hello to him because she suddenly saw herself.
"What's wrong? Is it because of what happened? Why do you look sullen? Qi Mo asked Song Lingyue with a puzzled expression, logically speaking, today is the first time that Song Lingyue has returned to Zishutang after recovering from a serious illness, no matter how you say it, it should be with a happy expression, not the current expression as if she had suffered some great difficulties.
The words that Qi Mo asked at this moment simply asked Song Lingyue's heart.
Song Lingyue slowly raised her head, but with a hesitant look, she didn't know how she should talk to Qi Mo about this matter, and she didn't want this matter to become Qi Mo's trouble.
"Let's go in first, it's cold outside, let's go inside and say." Qi Mo saw the hesitant expression on Song Lingyue's face, as if she had encountered something that made her unable to decide, seeing her hesitation, she couldn't speak to herself for a while, so she hugged her shoulder with one hand, and pulled Xiangling with the other hand and slowly left here.
Who knew that when Song Lingyue walked into the hall absentmindedly, Xiangling grabbed Qi Mo's hand and pulled him outside.
Song Lingyue's absent-minded look from beginning to end, as if her soul had long since lost her mind where it was drifting, Xiangling was obvious to all, so she immediately told Qi Mo about the small details she noticed.
Wearing a look of concern, she silently listened to Xiangling tell herself all the small details she noticed, such as when Xiangling went to find Song Lingyue in the afternoon, she saw herself standing by the window with a hurt expression, but her two eyes kept staring intently downstairs, as if she was waiting for someone.
Xiangling didn't know the promise between Song Lingyue and Tang Kite, but Qi Mo knew about this matter because of hearsay, but because he was busy for a while, he put this matter aside for the time being, so that he didn't expect that as time passed quietly, it had reached the time agreed between Song Lingyue and Tang Kite.
It seems that the reason why Song Lingyue showed an absent-minded appearance today is probably because she didn't get the news she wanted in her heart, or what is even more sad is that Tang Yuan didn't appear in front of her at all today.
Thinking of this, a feeling of self-blame inexplicably rose in his heart, if he had known, he should have silently asked Liu Liang to follow up on this matter, at least to know if Tang Yuan had seen Song Yanzhi after entering the palace.
"Okay, I know, Xiangling, your mother has prepared a delicious meal, go wash your hands and come over to eat." Qi Mo wore a doting expression, stretched out his hand, and touched Xiangling's head, he had been with this group of children for so long, he had already regarded them all as his own brothers and sisters.
Xiangling knew that nothing else would happen to her master in the presence of Qi Mo, so after hearing what Qi Mo said, she immediately left here with a reassuring expression.
Qi Mo was about to walk into the hall with a worried Song Lingyue, and when he just walked to the door, he immediately saw Song Lingyue sitting on a chair with a sullen expression, and was bowing her head and making a contemplative look.
Originally, the move of just lifting his foot and already stepping into it was retracted by Qi Mo, he fell his foot again, but it did not fall in the house, but outside the house, he wore a slightly worried expression, and after taking a deep look at Song Lingyue again, he turned around and returned to his study.
It's just that after Qi Mo stayed in his study for less than a while, he immediately saw Liu Liang's figure also walking into Qi Mo's study.
Liu Liang walked up to Qi Mo respectfully and looked at Qi Mo with a submissive expression.
"Lord, do you have any orders?" Liu Liang knew in his heart that he had been silently following Qi Mo's side, and his main role was to do some things that he couldn't handle in person or some tricky things.
Now, Qi Mo actually called him to his study in such a hurry, presumably there must be some other things that he wanted to tell him to do.
"You send some more trusted people to check whether Tang Yuan has met Song Yanzhi since she entered the palace, or what happened after she entered the palace, why she didn't appear in Zishu Hall today, the sooner the better." Qi Mo didn't have any idea of hiding when he treated Liu Liang in his heart, and after hearing the doubts from Liu Liang's heart, he immediately said what he thought in his heart, and even had a heavy expression on his face.
Liu Liang knew clearly in his heart that once the matter involved Song Lingyue, Qi Mo would become extremely concerned, and even wished that the person who was going to deal with this matter at this moment was himself, so Liu Liang did not dare to have any slack in the face of Song Lingyue's matter.
"Yes! Subordinates go do it right away! As soon as Liu Liang heard this, he immediately agreed with a serious expression, and then quickly left his study under the gaze of Qi Mo.
After sending Liu Liang away, Qi Mo returned to Song Lingyue's side with a nervous mood, although she didn't know what happened to Tang Yuan after entering the palace, but she didn't know why there was a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, as if something was going to happen after this.
He reluctantly suppressed the uneasy emotion in his heart, forced a faint smile, and silently walked to Song Lingyue's side.
It's just that this time, when Qi Mo hadn't opened his mouth to ask what difficulties Song Lingyue had encountered, Song Lingyue asked first.
"Qi Mo, do you know? I waited for Sister Tang Yan in Zishu Hall for a whole day today. Song Lingyue said. Her heart gradually became more and more aggrieved, and even an inexplicable sadness appeared on her face.
Obviously, she has allowed herself to hold out for a whole day, but why does she show a broken appearance when facing Qi Mo alone?
Qi Mo saw that Song Lingyue's eyes gradually became moist, and even the eyes that should have been smiling slowly became rosy at this moment, and he felt distressed in his heart, so he slowly stepped forward and hugged Song Lingyue's head in the posture of sitting on the chair, and let her lean on his belly.
Qi Mo stretched out his hand and gently stroked Song Lingyue's head, while sincerely comforting.
"I know."
"But Sister Tang Yuan has obviously agreed with me that she will appear in Zishu Hall today, and she obviously said that she would bring me good news, but why has it been over today, and she hasn't shown up for a long time." The expression of loss on Song Lingyue's face became more and more obvious.
Qi Mo didn't know what happened to Tang Yuan after he entered the palace, but according to his previous understanding of Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan has always been a person who keeps his promises, and he has never been a person who can simply lose his words, and now he hasn't appeared in Zishu Hall all day today, there must be something else going on behind it.
