"What, can't you find it?"

In the county guard's mansion, Du Qianqian slapped the table angrily when she heard the housekeeper's report: "It's really a waste, let you find two people and can't find it, what's the use of using you?" ”

The housekeeper said in a panic: "Miss forgive me, Xiao Yi heard that the two embroidery girls were gone, so he immediately took someone to look for them, but Wu Fangji's shopkeeper said that they didn't send anyone to the county guard mansion at all, and there was no embroidery girl named Xiaoqing......"

"Nonsense!" Dong'er said angrily, "How could it not be, Steward Wang, if you can't find anyone yourself, do you shirk your responsibility?" ”

Steward Wang is also an old man in the county guard's mansion, although he usually talks and laughs at Dong'er, but it is also for Du Qianqian's face. Now the embroidery girl who made Du Qianqian's wedding dress is missing, if she fails to make the wedding dress on time, it will affect the wedding date, this is a big deal, and Steward Wang will definitely not take responsibility casually at this time.

With a blank face, Steward Wang said lightly: "Miss Dong'er is responsible when she speaks, and she naturally does her best for the sake of adults and young ladies." I personally took someone to check on Wu Fangji, and I really couldn't find anyone. And ......"

He turned his head to look at Du Qianqian, and his voice naturally converged a lot: "Miss, the villain dares to vouch for his head, those two embroidery girls are definitely not Wu Fangji's people, but as for what the way it came from, the villain can't say for sure." ”

"What do you say? Not Wu Fangji's? When Du Qianqian heard the news, she was a little confused. She kept wringing the silk in her hand angrily, as if she was angry, and wanted to tear the silk to pieces: "Miss Ben doesn't care, Steward Wang, anyway, you brought those two people to see Miss Ben, so I'll ask for you." It doesn't matter if they're gone, but what about Miss Ben's wedding dress? ”

Seeing Du Qianqian reprimanding Steward Wang, Dong'er seemed to have the support of her and sneered: "That's it, Steward Wang, do you know that if Miss doesn't have a wedding dress, then there is no way to get married." When something goes wrong, the adults will know about it, and you will have to take full responsibility. ”

"This, young lady......" Steward Wang was a little frightened, he was indeed a little negligent at the beginning, but how did he know that there would be a problem with the two embroidery girls? And after two days, the young lady didn't say anything, and met the embroidery girl named Xiaoqing, and asked questions.

Now that the embroidery girl is gone, who knows if she was scared away by the lady's temper? Steward Wang didn't know Du Qianqian's temper, but he didn't dare to say it.

Seeing Steward Wang's squeaky and speechless appearance, Du Qingqing was even more annoyed: "What are you still doing here?" Why don't you go find someone for me? ”

At this moment, Du Ji'an came, he was dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, walked with a little smile on his face, and glanced at it lightly: "What's wrong with my good daughter, how can you lose your temper?" ”

When Du Qingqing saw that Du Ji'an was coming, he even pointed to Steward Wang like a backer, and said hatefully: "Dad, it's not him, let him go and find someone and can't find it, it's really stupid." ”

"Who's looking for?" Du Ji Anxi Lake was in a good mood and asked patiently.

"I asked him to find two embroidery girls, he looked for a day, but came back and told me that he couldn't find it. Dad, do you think he's useless? If you can't find someone, your daughter's wedding dress can't be made, how can you get married then? ”

When Du Ji'an listened to Du Qianqian's story, his face sank: "There are still a few days left before the auspicious day, why hasn't such an important matter been done yet?" ”

"How does my daughter know? It's not all left to them. Du Qianqian wrinkled her nose, looking worried and indifferent.

"The embroidery girl suddenly disappeared and can't be found?" Du Ji'an muttered, "And both of them are missing?" ”

He couldn't help but wonder if there could be something wrong with it. At this moment, no matter what happens, it is not trivial, not to mention that there is no such key event as the wedding dress? Could it be that someone is making trouble?

Because of the major events he planned, Du Ji'an has been having trouble sleeping and eating recently, and it is inevitable to think about it. I didn't want to be better, but when I thought about it, he became more and more worried. If it was usual, he would never care about the disappearance of the two subordinates, and it would be a big deal to find someone else to make a set of embroidered clothes.

Now it is about his net worth and his life and his glory and wealth, how can he not be careful?

His face became more and more ugly, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable, Du Ji'an flicked his sleeves and left, without saying a word, Du Qianqian, who was watching, was stunned on the spot: "Dad, why are you leaving?" What should you do if you haven't told your daughter yet? ”

But no matter what Du Qianqian called behind, Du Ji'an didn't look back. He suddenly had a bad premonition, and he had to order someone to find out immediately, otherwise he was afraid that something would really happen.

In just half an hour, the county guard has already sent government soldiers to check suspicious people throughout the city. Especially the major cloth villages, embroidery houses, and as for Wu Fangji, they sent people to directly monitor them, which made everyone panic and didn't know what was going on.

When the people from the county guard investigated Wu Fangju's background, Du Ji'an felt that this matter was not trivial.

He never thought that the embroidery village that his daughter said about making wedding dresses turned out to be an industry in the name of the second prince Nangong Yu. Although Nangong Yu is not the crown prince, after all, it is not the same as him and the fifth prince Nangong Chen.

Now that Du Ji'an has cooperated with Nangong Chen, how can he not have any doubts about other princes?

"Seal the gates of the city immediately, and no one shall enter or leave."

After suspecting that there was an inextricable relationship between this matter and Nangong Yu, Du Ji'an immediately gave this order, although he couldn't be sure whether Nangong Yu was involved in this matter, but he couldn't have a little luck. Moreover, this matter must be notified to the five princes as soon as possible, so as not to have an accident when it is done.

On the other side, Luo Qingluan, who was waiting for Nalan Ye's reply at the inn, heard the news of Xu Wei's inquiry, and immediately realized that something was wrong: "What? The city gate is not allowed to enter or exit, and there are people from the county guard who are closely watching? ”

Xu Wei nodded: "Yes, miss, just now I wanted to go out to ask the brothers of the Dark Night Hall about something, but I saw that someone from the county guard suddenly came to the city gate and set up a checkpoint at the city gate." ”

The news was apparently just announced, and all the people were unaware. Luo Qingluan's heart sank when he heard this, and he asked, "Then what is the situation now?" ”

Xu Wei replied: "At first, everyone thought that there was nothing, and they didn't pay attention to it, but a few businessmen who were doing business had already called for shipments, and they were going to break in, but they were immediately arrested." Later, everyone found out that it was true, but the soldiers of the county guard took the lead and were unceremoniously, although the crowd was excited, but no one dared to make trouble anymore. ”

"Miss, I'm just afraid something will happen." Xu Lian also sensed that something was wrong.

Even such a major event as the blockade of the city gate is related to the daily travel and life of the people, and no one dares to make trouble, dare to be angry, dare not speak, is it ...... This is absolutely unusual. Luo Qingluan felt more and more that there was a problem: "Could it be that there are a lot of people sent by the county guard and forcibly set up a card?" ”

Xu Wei nodded: "Yes, Miss, just to seal one city gate, they sent more than 100 soldiers to guard the city gate directly, and their subordinates also went to another city gate to see, the same is true." With such a big battle, ordinary people don't dare to make trouble at all. ”

According to the decree of Western Chu, the number of guards in the county guard shall not exceed 500, which is used to prevent bandits from raging, and to be responsible for patrolling the city's safety, fire and other matters. But now, the county guard has sent nearly 300 people at once, so you can imagine the seriousness of the matter.

Could it be that Du Ji'an noticed something? Luo Qingluan then thought of another point, could it be because there was a change in the things he was going to rebel against?

Luo Qingluan couldn't guess, but he couldn't ignore it. It seems that she can't continue to stay in Jiangbei County, and she must rush to the capital as soon as possible to meet Nalan Ye. It's just that Luo Qingluan felt a little hesitant, she was replying to her in Nangong Qing, otherwise she wouldn't know where Nalan Ye was now, if she left, how would she know?

"Miss, what should we do now?" When Xu Lian heard that it was so serious, she hurriedly asked.

Luo Qingluan didn't answer for a while, frowning deeply and pondering.

The situation on the street, Xu Wei went to check it in person, he knew it best in his heart, and when he heard it, he said in a deep voice: "Miss, I think we still have to leave here, it's better to leave early, now that the entire Jiangbei County has been banned, maybe something will happen in two days." If we stay here, we will inevitably appear passive, and if something really goes wrong, it will be even more difficult to go again. ”

Xu Lian nodded: "Yes, Miss, Xu Wei is right, I think it's better for us to leave Jiangbei County earlier, now that they have just sealed the city, it shouldn't be particularly strict, we should be able to take you and leave through the channel of the Dark Night Hall." ”

Luo Qingluan didn't think about it for too long, and quickly decided that she would rush to the capital immediately to find Nalan Ye. Although she didn't know Nalan Ye's whereabouts for the time being, as long as she went directly to ask Nangong Qing, she would naturally know.

Soon, Luo Qingluan asked Xu Wei to find Chen Dong back and told him about this decision.

"Miss wants to leave Gangbuk-gun? Alas...... If it was a day earlier, or even a few hours earlier, it would be fine, but now...... I'm afraid it's a little difficult. Chen Dong's face was solemn, and he said about the dark night investigation, "Jiangbei County has implemented a lockdown order, which has affected many people, even the industry of the dark night hall is no exception. Some of the channels that we used to use regularly have also been blocked. ”

Hearing this news, Luo Qingluan felt more and more that things were tricky, if it wasn't for Du Ji'an to find something, how could he suddenly issue such a strict lockdown order, and even affect the Dark Night Hall?

In particular, Chen Dong also told Luo Qingluan a piece of news, saying that Du Ji arranged a large number of people to search places such as Buzhuang and Embroidery Workshop, Luo Qingluan finally understood the reason, but he was afraid that it was the disappearance of her and Fanggu, which made Du Ji'an suspicious and suspected that the news had been leaked. It's just that Du Ji'an shouldn't be sure, so it's just a blockade, otherwise, I'm afraid that the entire Jiangbei County will already be in chaos.

It seems that Du Ji'an has staked all his net worth in order to rebel, otherwise how dare he directly seal the city?

Aren't you afraid that the news will reach the capital and be blamed by the higher-ups?

Although Chen Dong knew that Rocky still wanted to leave, which was more tricky, he also knew that the situation was critical at this time. After thinking about it, he said, "In that case, why don't we break in?" Those channels are already in danger of being exposed, so why don't we take all the people and escort the young lady away. With so many of us, it shouldn't be too difficult. ”

If it were a normal time, Luo Qingluan would naturally be worried about the safety of everyone and deny this resolution. But now it has come to the last moment, and it is only a few days before Nangong Chen's wedding. And Luo Qingluan has not received a reply from Nalan Ye so far, she doesn't know if she has passed the news to Nalan Ye, if something happens in the middle, and the news is delayed due to a mistake, then Luo Qingluan simply can't imagine the consequences.

"Well, at this time, too, I had to take the risk. Xu Lian, Xu Wei, you go and prepare, we will leave overnight tonight. Luo Qingluan said categorically, and a touch of resoluteness flashed between his eyebrows.
