The queen has left the house and has not yet found her whereabouts. Chu Peiyu was the first to kneel down in front of him, bowing his head. Shen Feihong stood beside him, his face showing helplessness, "I have searched for it in the western border, and the person should be there, but I haven't found it." ”

The chill emanating from his body made Lin Xian'er not dare to get too close to him, and got up to stay away from him.

"No matter what method you use, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find someone for me!" He stared at them, his hands bracing his violently undulating chest, his eyes radiating a burst of anger.

"Yes!"

Chu Peiyu and Shen Feihong's eyes lit up, and they all responded.

"What are you doing in a daze, get out!" Seeing that the two of them were still kneeling still, the anger in Nangong Yan's eyes became more and more obvious, and there was no trace of blood on Junyi's face.

Chu Peiyu and Shen Feihong hurriedly got up and hurriedly retreated.

After leaving his main courtyard, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, but the two of them had been working for him for many years, and their minds were settled at this time.

"In this way, if you go to the western boundary again, you must search every corner, and I will take people to the border to pursue it, so that it is more comprehensive."

Chu Peiyu calmly discussed countermeasures with Shen Feihong, although he was confused by Yu Qiqi last time, but after thinking about it for a while, he still felt that the border pass could not give up the search.

"Hmm!" Shen Feihong should have come down, but he hesitated tightly, "But if you have to search every corner, isn't it very time-consuming?" "He was afraid that it would take time to return to Nanzhao last time.

"This is ordered by the emperor, even if it takes time, you have to find someone." Chu Peiyu once again conveyed Nangong Yan's wishes to him.

Shen Feihong frowned, had nothing more to say, and led the guards to the western border. Subsequently, Chu Peiyu also led people to the border pass.

Lin Xian'er stood in front of Nangong Yan's bed, twisting her fingers, neither daring to step forward nor retreating farther, in short, she was frozen in place.

"Pour me a cup of tea."

In the end, he opened his mouth first. Fang just scolded Chu Peiyu and Shen Feihong, this will make his mouth very dry, Lin Xian'er kept her head down, and she didn't dare to look at him.

At this moment, after being instructed by him like this, he came back to his look, ran to the edge of the round table and poured him a glass of water, "Feed you, concubine." ”

She carefully held him and fed the tea into his mouth little by little, "You have worked hard too." After drinking, he gave her a rare relief.

"The concubine is not hard..."Lin Xian'er smiled happily, handed the teacup in her hand to Zhu'er, and then served him to lie down.

Lang Zhong saw that Nangong Yan woke up, and the breath that had been held in his throat came out, and the stone hanging on his heart also fell to the ground. After prescribing him a few more prescriptions, Lang Zhong slipped out of the house.

Nangong Yan has always been taking care of Lin Xian'er.

Chu Peiyu also knew that the longer a person left, the smaller the chance he could find, so he rushed to the border non-stop. When he got there, he first found Liu Chong and told him about it, and his thick eyebrows and big eyes immediately straightened, "What happened to the emperor?" He sighed in his heart.

"This is not the time to pursue these, you send more people to look for them in the city with me, and if you can't find them in the city, you can go outside the city early, in short, you can't let go of every corner."

Chu Peiyu's face was fierce, and he saw Liu Chong's heart go up and down, and then hurriedly responded, "The manpower in my hand, General Chu can be dispatched at will!" ”

"Let's go, then!"

He didn't even make a chair hot, so he got up and wanted to go into the city to search for people, and this matter had to be done very secretly, only claiming that the court was only handling the case, searching for key criminals, and did not say that he wanted to arrest the queen who fled away.

The people were also very cooperative, knowing everything about the government's questioning, and wanted to rely on their enthusiasm to help the court arrest the criminals.

With Liu Chong's help, Chu Peiyu got things done much faster, and soon, he searched the street where Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian lived, at that time they were still living in the inn, and Ah Jian was about to go out to buy dinner.

Seeing Chu Peiyu, who was searching with officers and soldiers not far away, her face changed, and she hurriedly walked through the crowd and returned to the inn.

Yu Qiqi saw her coming back from outside with a panicked expression, and she sensed that something was wrong, "They came here?" ”

"Well, Chu Peiyu brought someone to find here. I think it's because of Liu Chong's help, princess, we have to leave quickly! ”

She took out her baggage and began to pack her things.

Yu Qiqi walked to the window and looked down, just in time to see Chu Peiyu walking towards the inn with someone, he twisted his eyebrows, looked up, Yu Qiqi hurriedly hid aside, and then closed the window.

"It's too late, he's already in the inn!" She let Ajian know.

"Huh? So what to do? ”

Ah Jian was even more panicked, and his hand to pack his burden froze, and he didn't know what to do at all.

Yu Qiqi glanced at the screen not far away, behind the screen was a bath bucket, and Ah Jian had just put water for her to bathe.

"You come with me!"

She hurriedly grabbed Ah Jian's hand and drilled behind the screen.

"Princess? Ah Jian looked at the steaming hot water in front of him, and Yu Qiqi had already begun to take off his clothes.

"You take off your clothes too!"

She delighted neatly and got into the water.

"Hmm!"

At this time, Ah Jian no longer hesitated, directly took off the clothes on his body, went into the water, and bathed in the water with her.

Outside the door, there was the sound of hurried and messy footsteps, both officers and soldiers, and guests who were scared away.

Yu Qiqi held his breath and listened to the movement outside all the time, and so did Ah Jian, eager to put his ear to the door frame.

"Not here!"

"Not here!"

“......”

Outside, there was one announcement after another.

Chu Peiyu led people towards Yu Qiqi's guest room, he didn't knock on the door, and broke in directly.

"Ah!!h

Then, two terrible screams were heard, with an unfamiliar aura.

Chu Peiyu twisted his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on the screen on the right, on which the woman's clothes were hung, and on the ground, there were a few rose petals and a few drops of water.

From the top of the screen, you can faintly see the two bodies hugging each other and leaning together, and the posture is very sultry.

His brows tightened even tighter, and the posture of the two women was so charming, I was afraid that it was... Hey... He didn't dare to think any further, his earlobes turned red, and he hurriedly retreated.

However, he did not leave, the person was still in the inn, and he wanted to confirm the appearance of the woman in the room, even if there was only a little suspicious sign, he did not want to let go.

"Princess, the people haven't left yet." Through the crack in the door, Ah Jian saw Chu Peiyu hidden in the crowd.

"Don't go out yet! Wait until it's all dark. Yu Qiqi pinched his sleeves and told her sharply.

"Hmm!"

Ah Jian nodded, and turned his head to check the movement outside.

Chu Peiyu has been hiding in the inn for a night, and he has not seen the people inside come out and walk around. He asked the shopkeeper in the inn, and the shopkeeper said that there were indeed two women living in the room, and they had stayed not long ago, and it looked like they had come from a long journey.

As a result, he felt that the woman in the room was even more suspicious.

At night, Yu Qiqi opened the window and climbed along the window to the right, so that he could sneak into the courtyard on the right, and hurriedly asked Ah Jian to pack his things, and the master and servant climbed out along the window.

Settled in the house, Ah Jian took Yu Qiqi and went out directly over the wall, in the dark night, the two went out of the city directly overnight, and they could only avoid this storm first.

On the second day, the door of the guest room was still closed, Chu Peiyu went to the outside of the inn to inspect around, and suddenly, he saw a ragged little boy holding Yanjing's silver taels and buying steamed buns, he hurriedly ran over, snatched the silver in the little boy's hand, and asked him sharply, "Where did this silver come from?" ”

Judging by the way he was dressed, he didn't look like a man who could afford this kind of silver.

"Yes, it was given to me by an older sister," said the little boy, who knew that they were from the government, and did not dare to look at them or lie.

In this way, Chu Peiyu can be more sure that Yu Qiqi is in the city here.

He stuffed the silver taels back into the little boy, rushed back to the inn, and went upstairs to slam the room again, it was empty, and the two women were long gone.

The window was also closed, and he hurried to the window, and when he opened it, he saw the spacious house on the right, and it was too late to lead the people to search.

In the entire border city, Yu Qiqi can no longer be found.

There was no way, so he had to lead people to search outside the city with Liu Chong.

Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian fled to a remote area, where many villagers lived, and they did not directly bother the villagers, but rested under a big tree.

The two of them escaped in a hurry, and they ran out without taking anything to eat or drink, and they were already thirsty, and they didn't know where there was water to drink.

Fortunately, they met a farmer who had returned from chopping firewood in the mountains, led them home, and brought them a bowl of water to drink.

Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian kept bowing their heads to thank them, and the farmers were also enthusiastic, and when they saw that the two of them were very down, they gave them two bowls of corn porridge.

After eating, the two of them wanted to give him silver taels, but he didn't accept it, only babbling a few times, and they knew that he was dumb and couldn't speak.

Yu Qiqi asked him if there was a place to rest nearby, and the two of them wanted to find a place to stay. He looked up and thought about it for a moment, and led them both to a small courtyard in his back room. He made a comparison to the two of them and said that he didn't come to live here often, so they could stay here first.

Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian nodded, and rested in his small courtyard. It was surrounded by trees and there was a small stream on the hill behind it, and it was much safer for them to stay here than in the city.

Chu Peiyu and Liu Chong looked all the way outside the border gate, and saw many villages on the way, but there was no figure of Yu Qiqi.

"Is it out of the border?" Liu Chong frowned and looked at Chu Peiyu with a bitter expression.

Chu Peiyu was also in trouble, it stands to reason that even if the two of them came out of the border city, it would be impossible for them to escape so far, they have all looked for the nearby villages, but there is no shadow of Yu Qiqi.

After searching for a few more days, after confirming that every corner had been searched, he had to take people back to Nanzhao, and Shen Feihong's side, he also sent someone over to tell him about his situation in the border pass, so that he could pay close attention to the situation in the western border these days, and it was possible that Yu Qiqi would flee there.

When he returned to the house, he knew that Nangong Yan's body was almost better, and he could get out of bed, but the wound on his heart had not healed.

As soon as he saw him, he asked, "How is it?" Seeing him come back alone, he knew that he hadn't found Yu Qiqi, but he also wanted to know the situation at the border gate.

"I found the figure of the queen mother in the border pass city, but unfortunately, she escaped..."Chu Peiyu replied to him cautiously.

"Didn't find it since?" Nangong Yan frowned.

"Nope."

Chu Peiyu shook his head, looking helpless.

"Over there, you still have to send more people to keep an eye on it." Nangong Yan didn't deal with him either, at least he knew that Yu Qiqi was fine, and this was not a bad thing.

"Humble duty understands!"

Before coming back, he had already explained to Liu Chong, but if there was any situation, he had to inform him as soon as possible.

Furrowing his brows, Nangong Yan asked him to retreat.

Lin Xian'er stepped forward with the medicine bowl and reminded him in a shallow voice, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to drink the medicine." ”

"Hmm."

He responded slightly, during the time he spent with Lin Xian'er, he was no longer as resistant to her as before. She also told him about her previous incident in Yanjing, so that he could relax his vigilance against her.

......

In Shuiyun Palace, Bian Xiaoxiao was already in a hurry, this Lin Xian'er had disappeared for so long, she knew that she had gone to Nanzhao, and she also blamed her stupid head, and she was always not as quick as her to think about problems. She has been in Nanzhao for so long, this must be in Nangong Yan's arms! The thought of this made her teeth itch with hatred.

"Look at people, will you know that you regret it?" Bian Taiyin teased her coldly.

"What do I regret? What if she went? The emperor will not necessarily give her this throne, the queen is just missing, and she is not dead! ”

She stiffened her neck, and her whole body was still very angry.

"Your mouth, sooner or later, you're going to get into trouble!" He wasn't so angry before, but when he heard her words, he was already angry.

"Don't worry, your daughter won't trouble you at that time!" In recent days, she has been told by Bian Taiyin to enter the palace almost every day, and she has long been angry in her heart, which will vent all her sullenness.

"Okay, okay, you have a hard mouth, Daddy knows that you are not comfortable in your heart, you should reflect on yourself!" Bian Taiyin didn't want to say anything more to her, so he walked out of her Shuiyun Palace directly.

Bian Xiaoxiao puffed out her mouth and sat on the round stool, she was only two months older than Lin Xian'er, but the way to deal with things was not as old as her, she also thought about it, if she really ascended to the back seat, then she would not live, anyone in the harem could ascend to the back seat, but Lin Xian'er couldn't!

Lin Xian'er came into the palace with her, if she ascended to the back seat, wouldn't she become a soft persimmon that she could knead at will, and also a joke among the ministers.

Knowing that her master's mood was not going well, Ah Rui came in from outside with a thirst-quenching sour plum soup for her, and said calmly: "Master, you dissipate your anger." ”

"I can't drink it!"

Her anger hasn't subsided yet, how can she drink those things.

Ah Rui smiled, put the bowl in her hand on the table, and leaned over to her ear, "Master, if you are really angry in your heart, it is better to go to Nanzhao to serve the emperor, just say that it was discussed with Zhaoyi Niangniang before, she will go over to serve the emperor first, and when the emperor's injury is almost healed, she will replace you." Just right, it can also drive her back. ”

"What if the emperor refuses?" Bian Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up for a moment, and then darkened again.

"If the emperor refuses, he refuses, in short, you have passed, he can't drive you back, right?" Ah Rui said confidently.

"That's just as well." She nodded approvingly.

On the same day, the master and servant directly packed their things and also went to Nanzhao.

At that time, it had been two days later, Chu Peiyu looked at Bian Xiaoxiao who suddenly appeared in the house, and people were stunned, this is enough to choke people with Lin Xian'er, why is there another Bian Xiaoxiao?

"I haven't seen you for a while, and General Chu doesn't recognize this palace?" Bian Xiaoxiao stepped forward and took out the momentum of the harem concubines.

Chu Peiyu shook his head, "The lowly position naturally recognizes Niangniang, but why did Niangniang come over suddenly?" "Is this a moment to compete for favor?

"Lin Zhaoyi is here, can't I come?" Sure enough, as soon as she opened her mouth, it was Lin Xian'er.

"Mother, please."

At this time, Chu Peiyu had no choice but to stop talking first, so as not to cause a commotion.

Nangong Yan was looking through the folds on the bed, and Lin Xian'er was inking ink for him on the side, and there were a few folds in his hand that could not be delayed.

Seeing Bian Xiaoxiao walking in from outside, his face immediately fell.

Don't think about it, he knows what she's doing here.

"Your Majesty, the concubines greet the emperor, and the concubines come out of the harem privately, and I hope the emperor will forgive the sins." When she saw Nangong Yan, she bowed her head to him in a proper manner.

"Do you know that you left the palace without permission?" Nangong Yan's tone was very bad, obviously he didn't want to see her.

Her face immediately became aggrieved, "Your Majesty, you can't blame the concubines for this." When she knew that the emperor was seriously injured, the concubine told Zhaoyi Niangniang that she would come over to take care of the emperor first, and wait for the concubines to come back, but the concubines waited in the harem for a long time, but they didn't see the news from Zhaoyi Niangniang, so they rushed over. ”

Nangong Yan's eyes slanted, and he looked at Lin Xian'er who bowed her head to the side, "Is there really such a thing?" In my heart, I also weighed a few points myself.

"Back to the emperor, there is no such thing." Lin Xian'er directly denied it.

"Zhaoyi Niangniang, did she admit it herself?" Bian Xiaoxiao's face showed a little gloomy.

"Sister, what my sister hasn't done, how do you recognize it?" She raised her head and looked at her directly, completely unlike Lin Xian'er, who was submissive to her before.

"Okay, if you don't admit it, you won't admit it, in short, I discussed it with you before, and now that I'm here, my sister should avoid it on her own." She snapped, with a non-obstinatory tone.

"The concubines all listen to the emperor."

She turned sideways, lowered her head towards Nangong Yan, and took the initiative to hand over the right to speak to him.

Nangong Yan looked at her with great satisfaction, and Bian Xiaoxiao noticed the change in his expression, and also said, "The concubines also listen to the emperor." ”

However, her words did not ease Nangong Yan's expression slightly, but instead darkened it even more, "Lin Zhaoyi stays, and I am often returning to Yanjing, and I only need to leave one person to take care of it." ”

These words were like a basin of cold water pouring down from Bian Xiaoxiao's head, with endless coldness, she pinched her sleeves tightly, her eyes were full of dissatisfaction, but she didn't dare to show half of it on her face.

"But as soon as the concubine arrived here, before serving the emperor, the emperor drove the concubine back, isn't it too unfair?"

If she served, she didn't serve her better than Lin Xian'er, so she would admit it, but she hadn't served yet.

"In the blink of an eye, you've forgotten what you just said?" Nangong Yan's tone was full of tenderness, but that face was as cold as an iceberg.

"I, I..."

She squirmed, and couldn't find the words to make up for it for a while.

"Go to the palace yourself, don't let me send someone to send you back." This time, his tone was as cold as his face.

Bian Xiaoxiao wiped her tears and had no choice but to retreat, and Zhu'er hurriedly followed her footsteps. Chu Peiyu looked at her figure running out while wiping her tears, and withdrew her eyes after just one glance.

Lin Xian'er lowered her head, carefully substituted for Nangong Yan, and said nothing.

Fang Caibian Xiaoxiao's words obviously wanted to put the blame on her, and she wanted to take the name of being knowledgeable, but at this juncture, how could she show her mercy, just brush her off, and don't need to say anything to her.

Nangong Yan only glanced at her, and when she saw her lowering her head and studying the ink carefully, she lowered her eyes to the fold in her hand.

After Shen Feihong got the news from Chu Peiyu, he has been carefully searching for the western border, but there is still no news.

Although Yu Qiqi and Ah Jian stayed in the mountains and forests of the border pass, they also inquired about the situation in the border pass city from time to time, and it was almost half a month or so before they knew that Chu Peiyu had already withdrawn from the border pass city.

Their small courtyard was a little far from the villagers, and the people of the village hardly knew that there were two strange women who had settled in their village.

There is a stream on the back mountain, they drink water and go up to fetch it, Ah Jian sometimes goes out to hunt, her skills are very good, almost a hundred shots, and from time to time for Yu Qiqi to pick fruits back to eat, the days are leisurely, Yu Qiqi looks at the empty courtyard, always feels that something is missing.

She thought that she should plant something in the yard, so she took Ah Jian to the back mountain, dug up a few weeds and came back, and planted them crookedly in the yard, which was also very funny.

More than half a month has passed, and there is still no news from Yu Qiqi, Nangong Yan's injuries have all healed, and no one has found them.

There was no news from Shen Feihong, and Chu Peiyu said that the last trace he saw of Yu Qiqi was in the border city, Nangong Yan's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he decided to go out to find it in person.

Lin Xian'er stepped forward and grabbed his hand, "Your Majesty, what about the concubine?" ”

Nangong Yan glanced at her, and blurted out almost without hesitation, "You go back to the palace first." Then he rode away, leaving her alone.
