Two hundred and twenty-three, Lanxi is missing
Two hundred and twenty-three, Lanxi is missing
Ge Nan began to wonder why Lan Xi reacted so strongly to the news of Emperor Wang's illness, although as a subject, he should be wholeheartedly loyal to and love the emperor, but Lan Xi, a deep woman, even if she has a loyal and patriotic heart, is not so?
Fortunately, he is a sensible person, although he has many doubts in his heart, but after a few temptations, he saw that Xiao Tao squeaked and didn't want to mention it, and remembered Ge Pei's instructions, so he suppressed his thoughts, and he would naturally know when he should know.
Lan Xi is worried and drowsy every day, and she doesn't care about the strange eyes of Ge Nan and Sister-in-law Lu, the beautiful weather in late spring and early summer, but she hides in the room every day and doesn't think about tea and dinner, and her body and mind are haggard, Xiao Tao has to tell others that she is unwell and needs to rest well.
Originally, in her opinion, Emperor Wang's serious illness was a good thing, if he really went like this, then she and Lanxi would no longer be afraid of people looking for them, and the family would leave the capital far away from the capital where they might meet acquaintances, and go to Ho City to find Ge Pei's family, so that they could live and work there in peace and contentment.
When the crown prince succeeded to the throne, who would remember the low-level concubines who were beaten into the cold palace in the hands of the emperor at first, not to mention that the two of them had already died in the cold palace fire. The current life is too happy and peaceful, she doesn't want to have any more twists and turns, she just hopes that God will open her eyes and let her be happy for the rest of her life.
But in the end, she is a loyal and kind person, seeing Lan Xi so sad, she regrets that she is too selfish and only thinks about herself, so she instead hopes that Emperor Wang's eyes will recover soon, so that Lan Xi will no longer worry, although it is impossible for the two to be together, they also have a thought.
But things did not go as expected, Emperor Wang's illness has been delayed for more than a month, and it is getting worse and worse, no matter how clever the doctor or the most advanced equipment is, he can't find out what his illness is.
Seeing that the day is like a day, Lan Xi is also getting heavier and heavier day by day, if she doesn't have any scruples, she simply wants to show her identity and take a look. Finally got the news that Emperor Wangdi had passed on the crown prince in advance and had arranged for the concubines to go, and Lan Xi understood that he might really die soon. After dragging on for seven days, seeing with his own eyes that the new monarch's new policy was unfolding in an orderly manner, Emperor Wangdi finally passed away with peace of mind.
When Lan Xi heard the news, she may have been mentally prepared, but she didn't shed a single tear, but just sat in front of the window for a whole day without waves, and even her favorite Miao Miao couldn't make her laugh. Still disbelieving, she asked Ge Nan: "Are you hearsay?" ”
Ge Nan shook his head: "It's true, the entire capital is arranged according to the national funeral, if you go out, there are white flowers hanging on the trees outside, and singing and dancing are forbidden for three months." I also heard that the emperor's dragon body was placed in a transparent freezer, for the courtiers to worship and then be buried in the imperial mausoleum, so many people watched it with their own eyes, how could it be fake? ”
Lan Xi's only remaining hope was shattered, I used to wonder if it was any rumor, but now it seems to be all true, he really left his country and his harem and left, she once designed the cold palace fire incident in order to leave him, but in the end it was he who left her first, and the pain of life and death he had endured was now for her to bear.
The thought of a living person who had turned into a cold corpse at this moment, lying in a cold freezer for people to admire, suddenly felt a knife in his heart.
Seeing Lan Xi's grief-stricken appearance, although Ge Nan was full of questions, he still consciously did not ask, and only told Xiao Tao to hide from the other servants in the family and not to gossip.
Xiao Tao was afraid that she wouldn't be able to think about it, so she went in from time to time to persuade her to use some soup, but fortunately, although Lan Xi looked sad, she was quite calm, and said to Xiao Tao lightly: "You don't have to worry, no matter how sad I am, I won't do anything stupid, I just don't know how to get rid of the regret and grief in my heart, I just can't help but want to recall the past." You go and take care of Miaomiao, let me be alone and quiet, something will call you. ”
Xiao Tao reluctantly persuaded a few words and went to sleep, in the middle of the night Ge Nan was woken up by the sound of the phone, it was an unfamiliar number calling, Ge Nan intuition was Ge Pei who had not been in contact for a long time, and only said one sentence on the other end: "Childe let me tell the master not to panic, wait and see, and talk about it later, I will contact you at that time." ”
Then he hung up, Ge Nan put his mind at ease, woke up Xiao Tao to send a message to Lan Xi, Xiao Tao pushed open the door, but saw that Lan Xi had rested, probably too tired after a sad day, this will breathe smoothly and sleep heavily, so I can rest assured to go to sleep, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it the next day.
The next morning, he pushed open the door, but Lanxi was gone, Xiao Tao panicked and quickly woke up Ge Nan. Ge Nan was also confused, and hurriedly got up and searched the yard first, hoping that she would get up early and go for a walk in the garden as before.
But after searching all the places, there was no trace of Lanxi, and the gate was locked from the inside, not like someone had gone out, so Lanxi disappeared for no reason.
Back to Lanxi's bedroom to find out a little clue, the bed is quite neat, Lanxi's clothes are on the back chair like Xiao Tao saw when she slept last night, the clothes are all there, but the quilt is gone, and even the silver tickets and jewelry and other belongings are all there. Could it be that he left by himself while everyone was asleep?
But the gate was locked so well that it didn't look like someone going out. And leaving behind the belongings is very inconsistent with Lan Xi's character, Xiao Tao knows that the master has the same fanatical love for money and jewelry as her, and if she leaves by herself, these belongings must be taken with her. How could Lan Xi leave behind his money and belongings, only wearing a middle coat, but leaving with a quilt?
It seems that Lan Xi's was hijacked in his sleep, and he was not alone. But why are they doing this?
Even if Ge Nan and Xiao Tao thought about it, they couldn't think of why, and they didn't dare to report to the official, Lan Xi's identity didn't dare to be known at all. I waited for a whole day in horror, and there was still no news.
The people in this courtyard, Lan Xi is the real master, they are just slaves, if Lan Xi is lost, what is the point of them living here? Will the master, Ge Pei, forgive them?
Panicked and worried, Ge Nan ignored the rule that he could not take the initiative to contact Ge Pei, and hurriedly dialed the phone to report the incident.
Over there, Ge Pei was also stunned, he never thought that there would be this one. He was silent for a moment and said: "I have my own arrangements for the affairs of Lanxi, I don't need to live in the capital anymore, let the family slaves guard the house, and you move your family back to Ho City to live in the house." ”
Ge Nan saw that the master didn't blame him, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and told Xiao Tao to pack up his things and set off back to Ho City three days later, Xiao Tao simply thought that Lan Xi was likely to be kidnapped to Ho City, thinking of Ge Pei's power in Ho City, so he put his mind at ease and stopped crying.
The master did not dare to delay, and the two immediately began to tidy up their things and prepare to move back to Ho City to live, leaving Sister-in-law Lu's family to look after the house. To tell the truth, Xiao Tao lives very unsteadily in the capital, and is always worried about being discovered, but it was okay to not have Miaomiao before, but now that she has a baby daughter, she doesn't want to have any accidents. After living in the capital for many years, she usually doesn't dare to go shopping, and her family can go to Hocheng to live a free life is her greatest hope.
--------- was absent at night, so I worked overtime to write this chapter and sent it in advance.
