"Get out of the way!" A few officials loudly scolded and dismissed the idlers who were always chatting in the place where the notices were posted, and pasted the white paper in their hands on the notice boards. All of a sudden, the surrounding people gathered and craned their necks to see what was posted on the bulletin board.

"Eh, eh, eh, ......" The woman who was pushed by the crowd stumbled at her feet again and again, but she didn't fall, "Be careful!" It's crowded, hey! The tall man beside her was carrying some messy things in his hands, standing beside her with a frown, separating the bustling crowd and escorting her to the periphery of the crowd, "Miss Xia beware." ”

"What's the matter, this is ......" Xia Caiyi patted the dust on the hem of her skirt, and watched the two officials leave in a hurry after posting the notice, and heard the few literate people closest to the notice board talking about it, "...... What is this good city gate for? ”

"Who knows what those officials want to do...... Let's all go home quickly! Say it's going to be a door-to-door inspection......! ”

"Wow! Door-to-door checks? What to check? ……”

"I don't know...... It's not clear on this notice......"

Xia Caiyi and Yu Yunhe glanced at each other, and they both saw a bit of solemnity in each other's eyes. "Let's go back quickly," Xia Caiyi grabbed Yu Yunhe's wrist and ran, "Don't let Xiaobao have something happen to them......

Yu Yunhe glanced at Xia Caiyi holding his hand, and responded in a low voice, "...... Well. ”

The two rushed all the way back to the Yamen, Yu Yunhe went straight to find the city lord Bi Liang, and Xia Caiyi went straight to the back hall. Cuiliu and Evian were peeking out of the window by the window, Xia Caiyi suddenly pushed the door in, and startled the two little maids.

Xia Cai didn't even breathe, looked around and asked anxiously, "Where is Xiaobao?" ”

"Miss Xia, you're going to scare us to death." Cuiliu stroked her little heart and said angrily, "Why did you suddenly kick in the door?" ”

"Madame and master have gone to the garden to play," Evian poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, her face a little worried, "just now a servant suddenly came in and said that their city lord had lost something, and asked everyone to stay in the house and not move around freely...... Is there really something wrong with this city lord? Master and wife, are they all right? ”

“…… What can it be, that you don't know what your master is capable of? If he can't even govern the city lord of Crescent City, what kind of general will he be. Xia Cai raised his hand and pressed the hairpin on his chest without a trace, and comforted them with a smile as usual, "I just saw an interesting thing on the street, and I was anxious to find Xiaobao to see it." Since Xiaobao is now in the garden with the little general, then I will go to the garden to find her. The lord of the city has told you not to run around, so you should stay in your room and don't go anywhere. ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Evian to ask any more questions, then turned and ran out again.

"Hey......" Evian blinked, and rushed out when he saw Xia Caiyi's furiousness, holding the teacup and looking at Cuiliu speechlessly, "...... Miss Xia didn't drink any tea. ”

Xia Caiyi ran out of the back hall and saw Yu Yunhe walking quickly. Yu Yunhe didn't talk nonsense, and took her to the place where the little koi disappeared in the garden, "Madame disappeared, just more than an hour ago." The little general had already gone to find it with half of his guards. ”

Xia Caiyi didn't say much, until she followed Yu Yunhe to the secret door with a solemn face, went straight down the stairs, and found the scratch on the wall at the first corner, she frowned and said, "Sure enough, the hairpin ......"

Yu Yunhe was stunned for a moment, "What hairpin?" ”

"The one I picked up at the base of the wall at the end of the market." Xia Caiyi said and took out the hairpin from his arms. The clusters of Yingluo on it refracted the light of the torches, shining like stars in the dark passage, "This is Xiaobao's hairpin." ”

————————

When the little koi finished eating the two meat buns, Ge Rong asked her with a fierce face, "Full?" ”

The little koi opened its mouth and burped slightly, "...... I'm full, thank you. ”

Gojon looked at her with a calm face for a moment, then nodded, and said with a serious expression, "Don't run around, there are wolves outside." After scaring the little girl seriously, he looked at her obediently and nodded obediently, and hugged himself tighter, and then Ge Rong locked the door and left satisfied.

As for what to do with this little girl who was valued by Geng Yu, he had to find some other people who were still in Crescent City and ask everyone's opinions.

After he left, the little koi got up and walked around the room again. She leaned against the window and looked out, fearing for the first time that the boy named Gojon would come back at any time, so she didn't look closely, only to find that it seemed to be an abandoned residential area.

The window of the firewood house where she was now faced an alley, and she could see the dilapidated back door of the house opposite, which was ajar.

Even the birds chirping in the desolation here can be heard clearly, and even the smoke of the cooking is not visible even when it is a meal. The little koi estimated that either there was no one living here, or it was inhabited by people from Xijon who minded revealing their whereabouts like Gojon.

After considering the possibility that the call for help would attract other, more murderous Xijon people, the little koi gave up on the idea. She thought about it for a long time, and finally plucked a cluster of sparkling gemstone beads from her hair, broke off all the sparkling round gems on it, and then scattered it out of the window.

If the people sent by Geng Yu to find her found these gems, of course, it would be best, if those Xirong people found them, as long as they could cause a little commotion, it would also make it easier for Geng Yu and them to find them.

She put the shiny hairpin rings on her head one by one into the placket of her clothes and put them away, calculating that throwing a little bit every day would last for a few days.

…… So did Geng Yu find out that she had been taken captive? How long will it be before she is picked up?

The little koi fish sat back in the corner of the wall and became a ball, thinking a little worriedly.

Martial law has begun to spread everywhere in the city, and it is indeed a bit troublesome to gather those Xijon people without being discovered. It wasn't until the sun went down that Gojon returned to the place with his familiar part of the Sijon people.

"Ge Rong, are you sure it's really Geng Yu's little wife who was kidnapped?" Someone put an arm on Gojon's shoulder, crushing the skinny boy to a stagger, "What if the wrong person is tied?" ”

"It wouldn't be wrong to see the reaction of those who shook the light this afternoon." Another middle-aged man on the side answered.

"I'm afraid those people who shake the light just want to find a random excuse to clean us up." The man who hooked up with Gojon sneered, "In that case, Gojon will give us a big problem." ”

"Sinsa." Gojon pushed the man's arm away, "...... I can't get people wrong. ”

After he finished speaking, he pursed his lips and opened the lock on the door of the firewood room, and walked in first, waving a torch to shine in the corner.

The little girl was still sitting there curled up. She seemed to have fallen asleep before, but now she was awakened by the sound and fire of their group, and she was looking at them with a confused gaze with her head slightly raised from between her arms.

There were a little red indentations on her white face, a pair of beautiful big eyes with two pools of spring water in them, and her delicate and full lips showed a soft color like a rose in the firelight. She sat there in a small group like that, as if it were a handful of soft fresh snow. Everyone froze for a moment, and the two sides confronted each other silently, until Gojon withdrew his torch and asked, "What should we do with her?" ”

As soon as the firelight was gone, the snow-carved girl was hidden in the dim shadows again, and she could only be vaguely seen curled up. Among the people who followed Gojon, there was a greedy look in their eyes.

The man named Sinsa and the person next to him looked at each other a few times, and suddenly smiled, "Such a beautiful girl should indeed be Geng Yu's wife." Since it's Geng Yu's wife......"

As he spoke, his hands touched his trouser belts, "Geng Yu bullied us Xirong people like this, and now let her wife pay off her debts first...... No problem, right? ”
