Chapter 143: For Whom the Heart Moves
The rumors of Yucheng only began to spread in the past three days. But to be able to spread like this in three consecutive days, and to have such an impact, is by no means as simple as ordinary rumors.
Li Xiao frowned and asked Dong Liandao: "What do you think of this rumor!" ”
"This rumor is abrupt, but it can be spread like this in two days, and I always feel that it is not very simple!" Dong Lian said truthfully what he thought in his heart.
"How?" Li Xiao asked puzzled.
"It seems that someone is behind it!" Dong Liandao asked again: "Do we want to send someone to investigate?" ”
"It's good!" Li Xiao nodded.
She suddenly thought of something again, and her brows furrowed slightly: "Wei Lingjue, did you come back yesterday?" ”
Dong Lian shook his head and vetoed.
"What about the Guogong Mansion? Has he ever been there? ”
"Everything is normal in the Guogong Mansion, and I haven't seen the prince go back." Dong Lian was a little dazed: "Shizi, didn't you go out with the county lord?" ”
"He left early!"
Something left, but didn't come back, that is, it wasn't the Wei family that something happened.
But at the same time, there is another question, that is, where did he go?
Just as she was thinking about it, Yunxia, who was packing up for Li Xiao in the inner room, suddenly walked out, walking hurriedly, looking anxious, and said as she walked: "County Lord, look! ”
In her hand, she was holding an orange gauze skirt, which was the one that Li Xiao loved very much on weekdays.
"What's wrong?"
"Look!" Yunxia had already walked to Li Xiao's side, and reached out to send the gauze skirt to her eyes.
It turned out that there was an extra hole in the good gauze skirt for some reason.
A small, small hole that looks hard to spot without detail. But the incision of this small hole is unusually neat and regular, and at a glance, it is obvious that it has been cut by someone.
"It must be these days, the county lord is no more, and someone has sneaked in to do a good thing." Yunxia was very angry and continued: "I'll go and ask Fang'er and Duo'er, who has been here." ”
Li Xiao nodded, which was considered acquiescence.
Looking at the back of Yunxia leaving in a hurry, Dong Lian felt very guilty in his heart.
"It's a lowly negligence who failed to pay attention to the affairs of our house! The county lord was also asked to punish him. "Dong Lian pleaded guilty. He is responsible for the safety of the county lord and the entire county lord's mansion, but instead, one after another, he feels that he is really unable to escape responsibility.
"It's just a little trick, and you have nothing to do with you." Li Xiao said lightly.
Who did this, she probably has someone in mind, but she is a little unsure of her purpose. However, taking a step back, none of this is a big deal, and it is not worth her too much attention.
At present, what she should worry about the most is where Wei Lingjue is going, and the dart game.
Thinking of the dart game, Li Xiao asked again: "Is there any news from the dart board?" Can you find out what is the relationship with the Wei family? ”
"Our people, after going there, didn't find anything abnormal." Dong Lian replied, and the self-blame on his face was even worse. If one thing is not done well, it may implicate the external cause, but if it is, the piece is not effective, it is his own reason.
He felt that he had failed Li Xiao's trust and entrustment.
Dong Lian's thoughts, how Li Xiao couldn't see it, and said casually: "Take your time, one day you will show flaws!" ”
There was a bit of comfort in her words, but they also showed her heart.
She trusts Dong Lian, trusts him as a person, and trusts his ability even more.
"We can't rush now!" Li Xiao arrived again: "Right now, there is one more thing. ”
"What?"
"From among our people, find someone who is good at tracking, follow Yin Zhan, and see where Wei Lingjue has gone?"
"Yes!" Dong Lian responded and glanced at Li Xiao with a hesitant expression, as if he had something to say. After a while, I heard him come again: "County Lord, this matter, it is better to let the humble official go in person!" ”
"It's good!" Li Xiao said: "I'm more at ease if you go!" ”
Where Wei Lingjue went, it became a thorn in Li Xiao's heart, and she needed to pull it out.
Li Xiao's heart was stuffy and swollen, like thousands of green silks entwining and tying up one of her hearts, cutting and untidying and messy. didn't cut it constantly, but it entangled her and almost suffocated.
When Li Xiao was the only one left, the already quiet space seemed even quieter. And the suffocation in her heart was magnified countless times.
She inexplicably remembered the feeling she felt leaning on Wei Lingjue's chest that day.
That feeling swept away the exhaustion in her heart, and she didn't feel a little more comfortable and enjoyable, and at the same time, she forgot a little selfless, forgetting who she was and who he was.
But when she recalled, selflessness became her guilt. Her heart can move for any man in the world, but only the man of their Wei family cannot. Even if he wasn't the Wei Lingjie in his previous life.
It's just that too many times, people's hearts are the most involuntary.
………………………………………………
At this moment, Wei Lingjue, who was turning the river and the sea in Li Xiao's heart, was busy shuttling in a remote village.
The village is very small, but the families of twenty or thirty families are in the middle of the mountain col, and it is very remote, if there is no leader, it is difficult to get in, not to mention, even if it is not easy to be discovered.
Wei Lingjue's side was followed by a simple man. But the man's expression was a little flustered, and he was a little anxious.
The man carried a medicine box on his back, and followed Wei Lingjue step by step, he had some difficulty following, but he didn't dare to slow down for half a minute.
Listening to Wei Lingjue, he asked, "Are the symptoms of this family similar to your father's?" He nodded hurriedly.
This honest man is the eldest son of Xu Laosan in Uncle Qiao's mouth yesterday.
It was also he who invited Wei Lingjue to come over, so that Li Xiao was "driven" back to Yucheng by Wei Lingjue overnight.
Wei Lingjue followed the man and walked to the door of the family's house, and Hua gradually heard a violent cough coming from the house.
His footsteps didn't feel a pause, and he turned to the man next to him and said, "Give me the box, don't go in!" ”
"This ......" The man was a little embarrassed, and the rough big hand carrying the box showed green tendons because of the force.
"I guess, that's what I guessed, so it's better if you don't go in!" Wei Lingjue reached out and took the box.
What did he guess?
The man's face turned a little pale.
How?
"You, save them...", the man finally spoke, but it was such a simple sentence.
Wei Lingjue nodded: "Don't worry, I will do my best!" ”
Looking at Wei Lingjue's approaching back, the man slowly squatted down. Covering his face with his hands, his eyes are full of helplessness and sorrow!
He didn't dare to think about that speculation anymore, because once it was implemented, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for them...
