Chapter 110: Missing for No Reason
Strange, where did my father go? Jun Xi raised his eyes to look at the overwhelming rain curtain outside the window, and a touch of melancholy raised his eyebrows.
People came in and out of the hall, busy green, noisy.
Jun Xi raised his feet and was about to take a look outside, before he stepped out of the door, but a little maid in the mayor's mansion timidly called her: "There is a person who came with you, on the pond in the backyard, how to call him should not be, the little guy in the house does not dare to come forward, you send someone to take a look." ”
The people who ride the red clouds will not run to the pond in a daze for no reason, not to mention that it is still raining so heavily, the little maid can only say that it may be the father.
Junxi suddenly couldn't care so much, took the umbrella and asked the little maid to lead the way to the backyard.
She asked Qixi Babao to change into dry clothes first, and Tang Yuan went to find her a change of clothes, so now there is no maid around.
When I went out, there was a female rider who rode in the red clouds because she was busy sheltering from the rain, and bumped into Jun Xi, and when she saw that it was Jun Xi, she hurriedly lowered her head in fright: "The county lord forgives the sin, and his subordinates ......."
"It's okay, you go and change your wet clothes first." Jun Xi hurriedly explained a few words, and then followed the maid who had been lowering her eyebrows and hanging her head.
The female rider saw that the maid's face was tight, and she muttered a few words: "When did the county lord have a little maid by his side......"
When Tang Yuan found his clothes and came out, he didn't see Jun Xi when he looked around, and he looked puzzled: "Hey, where did the county lord go?" ”
Just in time to see Qixi coming out of the room, she hurriedly went over and asked, "Qixi, have you seen the county lord?" ”
Qixi was twisting the water from his hair, and when he heard this, he moved, "Isn't the county lord with you?" ”
Tang Yuan was immediately anxious: "I'...... I'm going to find a change of clothes for the county lord, wasn't the county lord still in this house before? ”
Qixi's eyebrows also twisted, but his tone was calm: "Look for it, this mansion is so big, the county lord can still get lost, maybe the county lord just went somewhere else." ”
Hearing Qixi say this, Tang Yuan calmed down.
But when they searched the entire mansion and didn't find Junxi, Aunt Mo was not calm.
No wonder the others, Jun Xi is gone, and Jun Changxian has not seen a shadow.
The rain outside is like the river bursting the embankment, and even if you hold an umbrella, you can't go out.
Where did they go when they weren't there?
After asking all the people who rode Chiyun, a female rider said that she saw Jun Xi walking away with a handmaid with a raw face.
Aunt Mo immediately found the mayor of the town and asked him to call all the maidservants in the house.
As soon as the mayor came over, he felt that the atmosphere here was not ordinary solemn, and immediately sighed in his heart and asked, "You, what do you command?" ”
A few plain-clothed maidservants with double-ring buns secretly glanced at Chiyun Rider, who was holding a silver spear and his face was as heavy as water, and one by one he was so frightened that he trembled and squeezed together with his head down.
Aunt Mo didn't answer the mayor's words, Jun Xi and Jun Changxian disappeared mysteriously, this is her oldest senior, everyone naturally listens to Aunt Mo's dispatch.
The majestic gaze swept over several of the handmaidens, and the gaze that was like substance made the handmaidens tremble.
Aunt Mo asked the mayor of the town: "Are all the maidservants in the house here?" ”
Obviously, he is the master's family, but the mayor still has a lot of sweat on his forehead, and he nodded and said, "The five maids in the house are all here." ”
Aunt Mo raised her feet and walked over, and the steady footsteps made the hearts of several maidservants tremble.
"Lift your head up." Aunt Mo is as strong as an adult man, and she is also tall, and she looks down completely in front of a group of maidservants.
Although the handmaidens were terribly afraid, they still raised their faces obediently.
Aunt Mo's knife-like gaze swept over the faces, and after making sure that there was no disguise among them, she said again: "Stretch out your hand." ”
The maidservants didn't know why, so they looked at each other in twos and threes, but still stretched out their hands.
"The cuffs are rolled up three inches." Aunt Mo's face became colder and colder.
This time, several handmaidens hesitated, there were men in the house, how could they be embarrassed?
The man turned away. Aunt Mo commanded.
The male riders of Chiyun quickly turned around neatly.
The maidservants had no reason to shirk, so they had to roll up their sleeves slowly.
Let the maid roll up the cuffs, in order to see if the hands are easy to see, those hands at a glance, there are calluses, but the long positions are all palms, obviously from the perennial rough work, not a person who knows martial arts.
When Aunt Mo's gaze swept over the thin white arms, she suddenly stopped in front of a servant, staring at a blister on her arm with heavy eyes, "How did you get it?" ”
The maid shrank for a moment, and said resignedly: "The slave and maid are helping on the stove, and when I brought the soup to the old lady this morning, I clumsily knocked over the soup bowl, and I wanted to reach out to catch it, but I still didn't catch it...... Instead, I was burned......"
The maid lowered her eyes as if she was afraid, and she couldn't see any expression on Aunt Mo's face, and after a while, she realized that the pressure in front of her had become less, and she realized that it was Aunt Mo who walked away from her.
Aunt Mo looked at the female rider: "Is there the servant girl you bumped into here?" ”
The female rider's gaze swept over each of her frightened faces, and finally said: "The servant girl has kept her head down, and her subordinates have not been able to see her face, but looking at her figure, it is quite consistent with the last maid." ”
Standing at the end, isn't it the servant girl with burned hands?
Suddenly hearing the female rider say this, she raised her head, her big eyes were full of tears, dazed and panicked.
"It's ...... What happened? The mayor of the town was also frightened and dazed, but after all, it was the maidservant girl in his own house, as the master, how could he come forward to ask: "Is this maid who doesn't understand the rules and offended the nobles?" The old man made amends to several nobles on her behalf! ”
Aunt Mo looked at the mayor, "It's just a matter of asking a few questions, the old man doesn't have to worry too much." ”
She deliberately added to the word worry.
The mayor's face, which was as dry as pine bark, changed again, and finally he looked kind again, and walked out on crutches, still muttering: "That's good, that's good, the nobles are reasonable people." ”
Tang Yuan was about to cry in a hurry, since just now he has been humane, and now, his emotions have long been unbearable, and he stepped forward and grabbed the neckline of the maid, and said fiercely: "Say, where did you take my county lord?" ”
The body of the glutinous rice balls was almost three times that of the little maid, and the little maid was stunned by this sudden action, and her little face was about to cry.
"Tangyuan, calm down." Qixi clasped Tangyuan's wrist and made her let go.
Tang Yuan's anxious tears fell: "The county lord is gone, I just turned around to find a clothes, the county lord is gone, it's raining so heavily outside, you have also searched all over the house, where can the county lord go?" ”
The little maid probably understood their conversation, she was afraid and aggrieved, and the tears in her eyes fell like this: "I...... I don't know anything......"
Aunt Mo looked at her coldly: "Did I ask you?" ”
The little maid choked and pursed her mouth.
Aunt Mo looked at her for a while before asking, "Have you ever been to the pond in the backyard?" ”
"How could I possibly go to the pond in the backyard on a rainy day!" The little maid screamed, as if she had heard something terrible.
Her reaction made Aunt Mo Qixi stunned, such an overreaction, there must be something wrong with this little girl.
Qixi's eyes intertwined with Aunt Mo and asked, "Why can't you go to the pond in the backyard on a rainy day?" ”
"Can't go...... Can't go ......" The little maid trembled as if she was stuck, and only kept repeating that sentence.
Aunt Mo had an impatient look in her eyes, and directly pulled out a dagger and stuck it on the maidservant's neck: "If you don't tell the truth, I'll cut a knife on your neck!" ”
"I can't say it......" the little maid cried out in despair.
Aunt Mo's eyebrows were twisted, what bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods on the battlefield had never seen, and she was afraid that these small fights would not succeed?
But she still couldn't stop worrying in her heart, although Jun Xi had been able to act alone in many ways during this time, she was just a child who was not deeply involved in the world after all.
Thinking like this, Aunt Mo became anxious in her heart, and she clicked on a few names of Chiyun Qi, "Chasing the stars, catching the moon, the first clouds, and the frost, you go to the backyard to check it carefully." ”
Babao, who had been silent from beginning to end, suddenly spoke: "Master, I'll go too, it's impossible for the county lord and the prince to save them and disappear out of thin air, there must be a secret way in this mansion!" ”
Babao's words shocked several people, and the current situation seems to be only possible in the dark way.
How many secrets does a small Lin'an town hide?
Aunt Mo was contemplating and pondering, when she suddenly heard the female rider next to her calling, "She...... What's wrong with her? ”
When Aunt Mo looked back, she was also slightly shocked.
The little maid was twitching, foaming at the mouth, and the whites of her eyes were turned up, but she still struggled to say a word: "No...... Don't go for ...... ...... in the pond Stuff...... Don't ......"
"What did you say?" Aunt Mo wanted the little maid to speak more clearly, but the little maid was so convulsive that she couldn't speak at all.
——————————————————
Northland.
The drums of war stopped.
At night, the Great Wall was in shambles, and the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, but their faces were full of joy, obviously they won a great victory in this siege battle.
The black-armored warrior on the beacon tower, his body suddenly fell, covering his chest, and his cold eyebrows frowned.
Yan Wangbei happened to come up to find Jun Chen, and when he saw him like this, his expression changed: "What's the matter, you're injured?" ”
Jun Chen withdrew his hand, and his frowning brows still didn't disperse: "It's okay, it's just that I suddenly had angina." ”
"Let's find a military doctor later, you don't have any mistakes with me at this juncture." While speaking, Yan Wangbei took a white-flour steamed bun in the cage next to him and gnawed it. After fighting in the middle of the night, I was really hungry.
"Hey, why are your steamed buns here softer and sweeter than the ones I ate before?" Yan Wangbei chewed twice and smashed his mouth.
Jun Chen glanced at him: "Aren't they all sent by the people in the city?" ”
The Hu people attacked the city in the middle of the night, but they repulsed, and the people in the city cooked food overnight and brought it to them.
Yan Wangbei thinks about it, maybe this steamed bun is better.
As soon as he turned around, he keenly noticed that one of the women in the group of women below the castle tower was staring straight at this side.
