Sure enough, this sentence turned everyone's target to Liang Qi.

Liang Qi nodded and said, "Yes, six days later, I heard that the Miao Domain is going to open the valley, and the new Gu King of the Miao Domain is going to the back of the Worm Valley to pay tribute to the ancestors." We can take advantage of that time to find a way to enter the Miao Domain and find Mr. Gao. ”

He Xi nodded slightly, saw that everyone had returned, and said softly: "Since this is the case, don't delay." ”

The group straightened up and went on the road.

On the other side, after attending the wedding ceremony of Ning Yi and Jiang Li'er, the tortoiseshell returned to the post station but sat ugly, Su Ya saw her anxiety, and whispered: "Madam, what's wrong with you?" ”

The tortoiseshell glanced at her and said coldly, "What, Xu Mao, they haven't come back yet?" ”

Su Yanono shook his head and said, "The slave has been to see it, but she hasn't come back yet, maybe it's been delayed on the way." ”

The tortoiseshell took a deep breath and said worriedly: "It's better to delay, don't make any trouble." ”

Fu thought about it again, if that person was really He Xi, there was only one middle-aged man beside her, no matter what, it didn't matter if Xu Mao and them retreated, so they waited until the middle of the moon, and Xu Mao and the others were still nowhere to be seen.

The tortoiseshell couldn't sit still, and it happened that Wang Lang, who had finished the entertainment at this time, returned to the post house drunk, and there was a subordinate to give him, but the tortoiseshell didn't care about him, but just let the subordinate go back, saying that the lady had rested, and the lady couldn't smell the wine, so the lord was wronged to rest in the study for one night.

After sending away the little girl, the tortoiseshell sent a few more people to find the traces of Xu Mao and the others, Su Ya looked at the tortoiseshell with an anxious look, and persuaded softly: "Madam, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the little master in your womb, don't you?" Stay up late and hurt your body, you should rest early, if there is a situation, the slave will call you. ”

Since the tortoiseshell was pregnant, she was also prone to sleepiness, and she already had a guess in her heart, Xu Mao and the others, afraid that it would be more auspicious, and after Su Ya's persuasion, she also said: "It's okay, you should keep vigil at night." ”

Saying that, he got up and went to the bed, Su Ya served the tortoiseshell to lie down and rest, and he curled up on the pedal, waiting for the person on the bed to breathe evenly, Su Ya quietly got up and went out.

At this time, in the study, there was a dim bean-sized lamp, on.

A guard led Su Ya, who was in a hurry, from the direction of the bedroom, and then knocked on the door of the study.

"Come in."

The person in the study said loudly, his voice was clear, where was he half drunk, the guard got the order, opened the room, and invited Su Ya in.

Su Ya's expression was respectful, and her face was no longer as cautious and submissive as she was in front of the tortoiseshell before. She leaned over towards Wang Lang and bowed, but she didn't bend her knees like an ordinary maidservant.

Wang Lang handed her the roster in his hand and said, "Today, how many people are being sent?" ”

Su Ya picked it up and carefully compared it, there were not only portraits on it, but also the background of the background, I thought it was only prepared a long time ago, the first one was Xu Mao, for a while, Su Ya nodded and said: "Yes, it is these six people, and Mrs. sent three more people tonight to find their whereabouts." ”

Wang Lang had a little struggle and disappointment on his face, and he sneered and said: "On this trip, I personally selected twenty guards to accompany me, and now nearly half of them can act rashly without my instructions, which is really good." ”

Although he said this, the coldness in his eyes and the slightly drooping corners of his lips could still see the anger in his heart at this time.

He originally thought that the tortoiseshell was really married to him, and he was really forced to be helpless to do many things by Xiao Nai's side, but this time he went to Xiliang, and the tortoiseshell was still like this, which really disappointed him.

But he still had some expectations in his heart, thinking that maybe Xiao Tian threatened her with tortoiseshell's younger brother, but compared to this, what made him more curious was who made tortoiseshell care so much, and even did not hesitate to expose so many people, but also to find out his identity.

He clicked the corner of the table, and then said to Su Ya, Madame has something to say, Su Ya carefully recalled all the words that the tortoiseshell said today, and suddenly said: "Madam asked me today, there are rumors in Xiliang Jingzhong, about a woman in the calendar next to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent before, and the slave maid was in the carriage, and listened faintly, as if Madame asked Xu Mao and others to determine whether the people in the carriage they met in the alley today were men or women. ”

Wang Lang's brows furrowed tightly, it seemed that the tortoiseshell suspected that it was a woman, and if Su Ya was linked, it was a woman who was a member of the Great Calendar and was once the regent's favorite? Although this news is also very popular, it is not enough for the tortoiseshell to take such a risk to fight rumors, and he has not heard of this matter these days when he is socializing with the noble officials in Xiliang Jingzhong.

Then he didn't know that now the people in Xiliang, except for the people, the people in the officialdom, almost no one dared to mention this matter, especially at this stage, if someone dared to rumor this, I was afraid that it would not be in the face of the regent, Your Majesty, the county lord and the Queen Mother of the West.

Therefore, only the tortoiseshell has heard the rumors in the market, Wang Lang thought about it, and only thought of one possibility, that is, this person tortoiseshell knows.

Tortoiseshell is a person from southern Xinjiang, he has no relatives since he was a child, only a mentally incomplete younger brother, and now he is left in the capital of Dali, Xiao Tian's side, and this is still a woman, is it that he was suddenly startled by his own thoughts, and he said to Su Ya: "If the guards who went to find Xu Mao and others have clues, return to me quickly." ”

Su Ya nodded, and when she returned to the tortoiseshell's room, she saw the tortoiseshell sitting at the table, her face was solemn, there was no light in the room, only with the help of the dim moonlight outside the window, she could see the tortoiseshell's displeased look, half of her face reflected the moonlight, and half of her face was hidden in the dark, which looked very terrifying.

The tortoiseshell's heart trembled, and then she whispered, "Madam, why are you awake?" ”

The tortoiseshell said coldly, "Where have you been?" ”

The tortoiseshell fell to her knees in a panic, looking terrified, her hands were raised above her head, and a warm fragrant oiled paper bag appeared in front of the tortoiseshell, and the tortoiseshell frowned and asked, "What is this?" ”

Tortoiseshell said with a smile: "The commander knows that Mrs. has a very good appetite since she was pregnant, and she is often hungry in the middle of the night. It just so happened that there was a cook in the house who was holding a banquet today, and the commander entrusted the adult to help make a dish of braised chestnut chicken, which is the lady's favorite food. But when she didn't want to come back, the lady fell asleep, so she instructed the slave maid to warm the food on the stove first, and then the slave and maid went to get something. ”

Her tone was anxious, but her expression was very clear, the tortoiseshell smelled it, it was really the smell of braised chestnut chicken, but she was suspicious, and continued: "Then how do you know, when will I wake up?" ”

Su Ya pursed her lips and smiled: "Madame's habit before going to bed is always to drink a bowl of bird's nest, and then about two hours, she will get up and clean her hands, and the slave and maid counted the time and went to the kitchen." ”

The tortoiseshell thought about it, as if this was the case, and remembered that Wang Lang actually asked the cook in someone's house to cook things, and his heart was slightly warm, so he didn't want to worry too much, so he asked Su Ya to get up, and then Su Ya served him and used supper.

Su Ya couldn't help but feel relieved, fortunately, Wang Lang was alert, worried that his identity would be exposed, and arranged this set of rhetoric in advance, this braised chestnut chicken was indeed brought back by him today, I have to say that Wang Lang is not as honest and reckless as it seems, and this man's heart is also unexpected.

The tortoiseshell ate a little, but couldn't sleep, so she simply sat up, asked Su Ya to light the lamp, and picked up the swaddling clothes on the shelf and embroidered it, on which was the pattern of the lotus boy, and the round little face was cute, as if only in this way could the tortoiseshell settle down.

In this way, it was not until dawn that the news came back that Xu Mao and others had all been killed, and their bodies were thrown into the woods hundreds of miles away, and there was even one person, only a head left, and the body was missing.

When she heard the news, the embroidery needle in the tortoiseshell's hand was oblique, and it was stabbed into her fingers fiercely, and the sharp stinging pain recalled her a little reason, and the tortoiseshell threw the things in her hand, Xu Mao and the others almost came to Xiliang this time, and most of the people in their hands were spared, which made her how she could swallow this breath, and what came one after another was also full of doubts.

The order she gave to Xu Mao and the others was only to let them find out the identity of the carriage people, and it would not hurt their lives, but they died because of this, what did it mean? Does it mean that the man understands his intentions?

Almost in the next moment, tortoiseshell instinct told her that it was He Xi, the mysterious woman, and the woman who accompanied the regent was her, He Xi.

She hurriedly got up and went to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote a letter, then sealed it, handed it to one of the guards, and said, "Send the letter back to the capital quickly." ”

This information made her heart tremble, and on the other side, Wang Lang, who also got the news, almost made the same reaction, except that his news was sent to the palace, and he investigated more things, this woman entered Xiliang at the beginning of the year, pregnant, beautiful, surnamed Mu, or surnamed Mu, this pile, piece by piece, no matter how dull Wang Lang is, he can know the identity of this person.

At this time, in the Xiliang Regent Palace, the newlywed princess sat in front of the desk with the handsome prince with a puzzled face, listened to the reply of her subordinates, and after listening, she asked puzzledly: "Why did the prince leak the matter of Sister He Xi to others?" ”

Ning Yi smiled and waved his hand, and one of the guards who had leaked the secret retreated in awe. 20
