Four days ago.

Li Luo anxiously walked back and forth in Mu Xi's room, and he desperately thought: Have I offended someone again recently? What do these people want to do when they catch Muxi? Could it be those unconscious women in the harem? It was the mother clan behind them who captured Muxi and wanted her to disappear into this world as a way to gain my favor?

Li Luo thought for a long time, but he could not get a definite answer, and his full atrium became like that of an eighty-year-old man.

If Muxi was here, he would definitely laugh.

Because Li Luo at this time is so cute.

Li Luo waited anxiously for a whole night, and the people he sent out had not yet returned to report.

He had just sat down after a night of walking, and as if he had been burned by fire, he quickly stood up again.

He kept looking out of the room, hoping to get the latest news about Muxi.

The emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally after some anxious waiting, someone finally came back to report the news of Mu Xi.

Li Luo clenched his fists excitedly and looked at the visitor calmly, but his trembling clenched hands still betrayed his mood at this moment.

"Master, after a day of inquiry, we found that there were no strange people entering and leaving the nearby towns. So we judged from this situation that Concubine Xi was either kidnapped by people in the capital, or she was caught and hidden in the deep mountains and old forests. ”

"Well, pass on my order, and all those who go out to search are divided into two teams, one of which is responsible for searching for any strangers in the property of the daughter of the palace minister and her mother's family; The other team searched the North and West Mountains around the capital. If you find something, report it immediately. ”

"Yes."

With that, the man bowed his head and withdrew.

Fortunately, there were some clues, and Li Luo's mood was a little soothed.

But he still didn't want to go to the early dynasty, so in order not to fall into the hands of others, he still decided to go to the form.

Li Luo went around the front hall from the back of the mission hall.

The father-in-law standing next to the dragon chair saw the emperor shouting loudly: "Shang Dynasty-" A group of ministers entered the hall one after another, and when they saw the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, they looked at each other and discussed.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"

"Zhong Aiqing is flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Something to start, nothing to retreat from-" The father-in-law's shrill voice sounded in time.

"The minister has something to do." Dali Siqing stood up from the queue and said.

"What is Aiqing talking about?" Li Luo pretended to be enthusiastic and said.

"The minister heard that yesterday Concubine Xi Niangniang was robbed at the gate of the palace, countless guards and guards in the capital were killed, it was a dereliction of duty by the ministers, I hope the emperor can let the ministers wait for the crime to make meritorious service, and hand over the task of arresting the murderer to my Dali Temple. The murderer will be arrested. ”

Li Luo was shocked, and he thought to himself: Leave it to you? Hmph, don't think I don't know what you are doing, the murderer was arrested, but there was a small mistake in the process, and Concubine Xi was killed by the bandits. Then you will have every reason to persuade me to let the rain and dew get wet.

"Don't bother with Dali Siqing, I will look for my concubine, what you have to do now is to strengthen the security and defense work in Beijing."

"Yes, your ministers obey."

"Since it's okay, let's retreat!"

"Long live my emperor, long live."

After retiring from the court, Li Luo received a message from the secret guards that some people had reported that some people had asked about the palace a few days ago. For example, whether the emperor often pays private visits: when does Concubine Xi return to the palace every day; Whether the pomp and circumstance when Concubine Xi went out was huge.

Li Luo knew immediately.

"It must be these people, these people inquire about me and Concubine Xi, so that they can kidnap Xixi without risk."

"Continue to investigate, don't let go of the slightest clue."

"Yes, Lord. We've found some clues, do we need to find out where these people are in the capital next? Looking for their origins from this direction? ”

"Well, this is a very good proposal, I am confused, so I will do as you say. In addition, find out who these people have interacted with. Keep an eye on them and find Hee-hee as soon as possible. The longer it drags on, the more dangerous Heixi's situation becomes. ”

"Yes, we will do everything in our power to find the Mistress."

"Go ahead!" Li Luo sat down in his chair and rubbed his frowning brow.

A feeble exhaustion welled up in my heart. Li Luo held his head in his hands and closed his eyes.

He didn't dare to sleep too deeply, for fear of missing a little news about Xixi, he just wanted to take a nap and replenish his energy in order to better find and rescue Xixi.

When Li Luo woke up again, it was already past noon, and the imperial dining room had already brought Li Luo today's imperial meal.

Li Luo looked at the delicacies of the mountains and seas on weekdays, the delicacies, the colors and flavors, and the mouth-watering food became unattractive.

Li Luo held chopsticks casually and fiddled with them, and almost none of them actually ate it.

If it weren't for the sake of maintaining his strength, Li Luo would not be in the mood to eat.

After eating like chewing wax, Li Luo immediately summoned the secret guard and asked, "Is there any news?" Did you find any other clues? ”

"Lord, we found a low, dilapidated house on the outskirts of the city, which had no sunlight all the year round, and was dim and damp, and the skin of the walls had long since fallen off, and the walls were uneven. The roof tiles have fallen off quite a bit. ”

"But recently, there was a group of people living there. And no one was a native of the capital, and the people around them didn't understand what they said. ”

Li Luo said excitedly: "Found it? Did you send someone to control it? Don't disturb them, let them make conditions, as long as they can get back to Xixi, I can do whatever I want. No, I'm going to talk to them personally. ”

"Lord, this ...... That's a bit out of place, isn't it? If you do this, the mistress will be criticized. Think again! ”

"Let's talk about it then, I can't wait, I want to make sure Hee-hee is safe. Don't worry, I'll deal with this calmly. Want to threaten me? The one who can threaten me hasn't been born yet. ”

The dark guard breathed a sigh of relief, and he knew that the Lord was not such an impulsive and reckless person.

Li Luo followed the secret guard and quietly slipped out of the palace. The secret guard led the way in front and rushed to the ruined houses on the outskirts of the city.

Under Li Luo's constant urging to speed up the secret guards, they went directly through one downtown after another.

The longer the walk, the more deserted the surroundings become.

When he arrived at the destination mentioned by the dark guard, Li Luo was surprised to find that there were only a few small courtyards.

The guard pointed to one of them and said, "Lord, this is the room, be careful." ”

"Come in yourself! There's no need for your guards to come in. There was a voice from inside the courtyard.

"The Lord ......"

"Needless to say, I'll go in by myself, I don't believe he can do anything to me."

Li Luo pushed open the dilapidated courtyard gate and saw Liu Jizhu sitting in the courtyard.

Liu Jizhu said: "Li Luo, you are here, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”
