Chapter 39: Embarrassment

The masters and slaves in the upper and lower courtyards of the palace have almost nothing to do with each other, and Shushu and Dong'er's leave did not attract attention.

The closer the New Year gets, the owners and slaves of each house have their own busyness, and no one can take care of anyone, plus the princess is young, the prince specially explained, let her toss and toss in the courtyard by herself, so Xu Jiao, the dignified princess, has not been in the house for many days and no one knows!

It wasn't until the first day of the Lunar New Year that the housekeeper went to the main courtyard to greet the princess master, and by the way, he sent a case of silver to find out that his princess was gone!

With the mother missing, there are two girls, Rue Xiang and Dong'er.

Only then did he hurriedly send someone out to look for it, however, a Rue Xiang was a girl recruited from the house, but according to the address she had left, she found it in a small farm yard on the outskirts of the city.

But Na Dong'er came from the Guogong Mansion, and sent someone to ask, and the person said that the girl was picked up by Xu Wenyang from outside many years ago, and no one knew the origin.

Things have come to this point, Zhao Ping knew that there was no one named Shushu in the house at all! However, this Zhao Ping is a smart person, so naturally he will not rush to report.

But the housekeeper was bitter, and while sending people out to search all over the world, he sent eight hundred miles to the prince urgently.

Besides, Xu Jiao, this road is extremely comfortable, it is really a tour, all the way to Wuyuan, where her father is located, fortunately, in the middle of winter, there is not much beautiful scenery, so it was not delayed too hard.

Along the way, a few people took advantage of the sunny weather to go down the river to spearfish, roasted by the river as lunch, and often packed special dishes from the restaurant to sit on the big stone near the official road for a picnic, but at night they never dared to sleep in the wild, public security is one thing, the other, they are all young girls, petite, don't pretend to be men, and not the peerless master, naturally dare not take risks.

Calculating the time, it has been six days since a few people came out, and they are coming to the boundary of a state capital to catch up with the big gathering before the year, but it is very lively here, Xu Jiao naturally has to go shopping to buy some necessities.

Fortunately, the state capital is prosperous, Xu Jiao has a lot of money to the market, naturally she can buy whatever she wants, but at the end of the year, most of the decent inns and restaurants are closed, Xu Jiao rented a small courtyard from a family on the street, and the three of them lived like this, ready to spend the New Year before hurrying.

For today's Xu Jiao, she doesn't dare to expect a "home", and the place with an eaves and roof is her own accommodation, and this accommodation is the same everywhere. So, her mood was not affected in the slightest. Naturally, the two people who are with her, a little girl takes her as the main backbone, and a Huang Rong is the master who is more unruly than herself, so naturally she has no burden, and she is open to play without heart and lungs!

A few people went to the bazaar, swept away a lot of loot, and had everything for food and clothing, after all, it was the New Year, and Xu Jiao did not wronged herself.

A few people here went all the way to Wuyuan at ease, but the Nine Kings' Mansion over there had already exploded.

The princess is lost! The housekeeper didn't dare to hide it, so he asked people to hurry up to report to the prince for 800 miles as soon as possible, and while sending people all over the world to search, he didn't forget to send someone to tell the emperor.

When Zhao Yuan got the news, he was playing tricks in Huangfu, coercing and intimidating Huang Xinglin from Tai Hospital to hand over Huang Rong to him for eye disease.

In fact, this guy's eyes are like night owls, but he deliberately stayed up for two days and pretended to come to find trouble, and at this time, when he heard that his imperial aunt was gone, he was really shocked.

Although Zhao Yuan is noble, in the end, his ninth uncle helped a lot when he ascended the throne, and now because he stuffed Han Yan'er into the palace, he actually forced away his ninth uncle's original princess, which is unreasonable. So, he didn't care about pretending to be crazy and stupid, so he hurriedly took off his robe and returned to the palace, and the emperor announced that it was important for the world to find someone.

As soon as the emperor came out, the effect was really different.

So, the first day of the Lunar New Year. Xu Jiao and his entourage had to dress up and hurry on the road, just because the revelation of the emperor list had already been posted on the wall of the small courtyard they rented.

Fortunately, the revelation only said that he was looking for two fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls, but he didn't say anything specifically, and the portrait was also a mess, except for Dong'er's portrait, which was six or seven points similar, and his own portrait was simply nondescript.

Thinking about it, Xu Jiao has been confined to the Guogong Mansion since she was a child, and there are not even many people in the mansion who can clearly remember her, who can tell her appearance well. Rue Xiang said it, but Rue Xiang was not stupid at all, combined with the previous reaction of the princess, she immediately knew that the princess left home on her own, and since she left home on her own, she must not want to come back. So, for the sake of the previous master's sincere kindness to him, Rue Xiang indiscriminately described a princess coming out.

In addition, there were more than two people in the same company, and Huang Rong carefully covered up a few people, so the emperor list was posted for three days, but nothing was found.

The emperor was very anxious, he wanted to get people back before his ninth uncle knew about it, otherwise he would really have no face to see people!

Let's not talk about the mood of looking for someone, just look at the three people who fled here, at this time they are carrying a huge burden and walking on the mountain road in embarrassment.

Xu Jiao stiffened her waist and sighed: "I saw dead vines and old trees, where did the small bridge and flowing water come from?" This hellish place is too backward, how high is this mountain? I'm dying of exhaustion. ”

Huang Rong lifted the burden up and said, "What do you think is a paradise? What's more, it's freezing on this day, and even if it's a paradise, there is no small bridge and flowing water. Let's go, it looks like it's going to be dark in two or three hours, if I can't turn it over, I have to sleep in this deep mountain and old forest for one night today, I don't want to stay here anymore, it's too scary. ”

Dong'er also panted and said, "That's it." It's really scary here, or let's go back, mother. ”

Xu Jiao immediately turned her head and glared at her fiercely: "If you dare to say this again, I will throw you into this mountain today!" ”

Dong'er was about to cry: "Niangniang~ Dong'er is really afraid." ”

Huang Rong suddenly covered Dong'er's mouth: "Shhh Don't speak, there is a voice. ”

Dong'er immediately turned pale and stared nervously at the two in front of her.

Xu Jiao said softly: "What sound?" If you're passing by, we'll go with someone. ”

Huang Rong was still frowning: "What kind of brain do you have?" How many people do you think will come to climb this mountain during the Chinese New Year? Be careful, don't be a beast. ”

When Dong'er heard this, she was already trembling like chaff in fright.

Xu Jiao also leaned against the stone wall behind her.

The few of them stayed on for a moment, and finally they were relieved to see a gray hare scurrying through the nearby woods.

Xu Jiao said: "It's all your damn Brother Jing, you said he had nothing to do?" Even if I'm gone, isn't it Zhao Yin who should be looking for me? Is he an emperor idle all day? Forced us to be so embarrassed! ”

Huang Rong said: "Accept your fate, you should have thought of this a long time ago." ”

"We were lucky to not encounter a poisonous snake and beast yesterday, what if we were unlucky today?" Dong'er patted her chest in fear and asked.

Xu Jiao said: "Don't worry, although this is in the mountains, there are often people walking, and fierce beasts generally do not approach, as for poisonous snakes, they should still be hibernating at this time, so you can rest assured." ”

Dong'er was still shaking, looking around in fear for a while, and climbed up with difficulty behind the two.
