Seeing that the man was gone, Hu Qiaoer looked left and right to see that there was no one, and hurriedly took her skirt back to the teahouse in front.
After she left, Feng Ji flashed out from behind a tree not far away, squinted his eyes, and chased in the direction where the man had left.
Hu Qiao'er and Hongmei drank tea and came out, only saw the carriage at the door, but did not see the person driving, and the two waited for a while before seeing Feng Ji come back from outside.
"Didn't you wait here in the carriage, where did you go?" Hu Qiao'er asked him angrily with a straight face.
Feng Ji said: "I was idle, I went to the street at will." ”
"Can you hang out when you have nothing to do?" Hu Qiao'er stared at her round eyes and said angrily: "I am the master, you are the subordinate, the master asked the subordinate to wait here, which subordinate dares to run out to hang out without permission?!" ”
Feng Ji raised his eyelids and said coldly: "My master is just the son and the lady, don't say that you haven't really become the aunt of the prince, even if you become an aunt, it will not be your turn to instruct me." ”
Hu Qiao'er trembled angrily, Feng Ji slapped her in the face in front of her little sister, she was anxious and angry, her face rose red, Hongmei saw it next to her, and hurriedly pulled her and said: "It's not a big deal to wait for a while, it's been a long time since I came out, let's go back quickly." ”
Hu Qiao'er held back her anger, got into the carriage without saying a word, sent Hongmei home, and went back to the house where she lived, slamming the door and entering the room in anger.
Ji Yunyun was painting the plum in the vase, heard the movement next door, raised his eyebrows, heard that Feng Ji was asking to see outside, and said, "Please let him in." ”
"Ma'am." Feng Ji entered the door and bowed, and then said: "My subordinates sent Hu Qiao'er back to the tofu shop, and found that she had contact with a strange man in the teahouse on the street, and the man acted lightly towards her, and the relationship between the two was not ordinary. ”
Ji Yunyun frowned and asked, "Do you know who that man is?" ”
Feng Ji shook his head, "The subordinate followed the man for a while, but he was very keen, Xu was aware that someone was following, and quickly got rid of the subordinate and disappeared." ”
"Can detect your tracking ......" Ji Yunyun thought thoughtfully, "That man should not be an ordinary person." ”
"My subordinates think so too." Feng Ji said, "It's just that my subordinates have some doubts, Hu Qiao'er is just an ordinary girl who has been living in a tofu shop, how can she know that kind of unusual man?" ”
Ji Yunyun lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then said: "You continue to stare at her, if there is a first time, there will definitely be a second meeting." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Feng Ji arched his hand.
"By the way, what's going on? went out for a trip, and she came back so angry. Thinking of Fang Cai's movements, Ji Yunyun asked.
Feng Ji told him what happened at the door of the teahouse.
Chun Tao snorted coldly beside him, "The face is really big, and the child in the belly doesn't know whose it is, so he regards himself as a serious master." ”
"Thank you, Guard Feng, for letting you suffer this kind of crime by her side." Ji Yunyun looked at him apologetically and said.
Feng Ji hurriedly said: "Whatever Madame says, it is the duty of the subordinates to listen to the orders of the prince and Madame." ”
"You've been out with her, and you're tired, so go back to the house and rest." Ji Yunyun said.
"The subordinates retired." Feng Ji said goodbye and pushed the door out.
Hu Qiaoer kept herself in the room, and when she waited for dinner in the evening, Xiaohong came over and told her that she didn't open the door and the meal couldn't be delivered.
Ji Yunyun sneered, "In that case, then you don't need to send it in, let her be hungry." ”
Xiaohong answered and returned to the kitchen with her meal.
Hu Qiao'er has been listening to the movement outside, and the maid who came to call her to eat only came once, and never came again. She was angry and hungry, she was wronged, such a big movement, that lady didn't even let people come to see her, ask her, she was so pregnant!
"Madame, it's snowing." She heard the voice of the maid named Chun Tao outside.
"I don't know when the prince will come back, let the kitchen warm the wine and food, and when the prince comes back, I will bring it directly." It was the voice of the lady.
Ignore her, huh? She got up from the kang with all her bones, put on a thick jacket, and when it was dark outside and there was no one in the yard, she quietly opened the door and slipped out.
When Qi Cheng came back, the snow was already falling heavily, he turned over and dismounted at the door, shook off the snow falling on the big cloud, handed the horse to the guard, and was about to walk to the backyard, "Brother Cheng." Someone called out next to him.
He turned his head to look over and saw Hu Qiao'er standing under the eaves, rubbing her hands and stomping her feet, running in front of him in small steps.
"It's so late, why are you here?" He asked with a frown.
"Wait for Brother Cheng." Hu Qiao'er's cheeks were red from the cold, and she looked up at him with bright eyes, "Since I came here, Brother Cheng, you haven't had a good word with me." ”
"I'm busy, it's cold outside, you better go back to the house quickly." Qi Cheng didn't want to talk to her more, so he said lightly and strode to the backyard.
"Brother Acheng." Hu Qiao'er hurriedly followed, the snow on the ground accumulated a thick layer, she walked and walked, and suddenly there was an "ouch".
Qi Cheng's footsteps paused slightly, and when he looked back, he saw her fall to the ground.
"Brother Cheng, I just seem to have fallen in my stomach." Hu Qiao'er touched her stomach, with a panicked look on her face.
"Feng Ji, send Miss Hu back to the room, and then ask the doctor to come and take a look at her." Qi Cheng's eyebrows didn't move a minute, he gave a faint order, and strode away directly.
"Yes." Feng Ji responded.
As soon as Hu Qiao'er turned her head, she saw that Feng Ji didn't know when she appeared next to her, and gritted her teeth angrily.
In the room, Chun Tao said with a smile: "She is waiting for the prince at the door, and the Feng guards are watching from the side, no matter what moth she is going to make, Madame doesn't have to worry." ”
As he was talking, he heard footsteps at the door, and knew that Qi Cheng was back, Chun Tao hurriedly opened the door to let him enter the house, and then said, "I'll go and ask the kitchen to bring food." ”
"I'm back." Ji Yunyun got up to help him change his clothes, but Qi Cheng held her down and didn't let her get up, and changed his clothes by himself behind the screen.
Feng Ji's voice came from outside the door, Ji Yunyun listened to the movement outside, and asked with a smile: "I just came back at the door, and I didn't meet anyone?" ”
"You know all about it, and ask. I ignored her and asked Feng Ji to send her back. Qi Cheng changed his clothes and came out from behind the screen, looked at her smile, and said helplessly.
Ji Yunyun snorted with satisfaction and told him what Feng Ji had discovered today.
Qi Cheng listened, pondered for a moment and asked, "Did Feng Ji see that man's appearance clearly?" When the portrait comes out, let the government look for it all over the city, as long as he is from here, he will definitely be able to find out. ”
Ji Yunwan frowned and said, "I didn't ask about this, otherwise you would call him to ask now." ”
Chun Tao came in with a food box, and Qi Cheng saw it and said, "Forget it, don't be in a hurry at this time, it's the same to ask again tomorrow." Did you have dinner? Use some more with me. ”
Chun Tao took out the food and put it on the table and closed the door and went out, Ji Yunyun had used food before, and now he was a little hungry, so he used some more with him.
Next door, Feng Ji invited a doctor, and Ji Yunyun only let Chunzhi go over to watch, and neither she nor Qi Cheng showed up. The doctor saw that there was no big problem, and left after prescribing the medicine for the fetus. Hu Qiao'er was so angry that she closed the door and tore up several handkerchiefs.
The next day, Qi Cheng didn't go out, called Feng Ji into the house, and asked him to describe the appearance of the man he saw yesterday, he painted on the side, and when the painting was finished, he put down the brush, handed the portrait to Feng Ji to see, and asked with a serious face: "Is this indeed the man you saw yesterday?" ”
Feng Ji looked at the portrait and nodded, "Yes." ”
Seeing that Qi Cheng's face was a little strange, Ji Yunyun asked suspiciously beside him, "What's wrong with this person?" ”
"I know this man." Qi Cheng tapped his finger on the portrait, "The bandit leader we are looking for looks like this." ”
"What?" Ji Yunyun and Feng Ji were both shocked, and Ji Yunyun was surprised: "How could it be him?" Miss Hu and him are actually acquainted? So what she said before was all a lie? ”
Qi Cheng frowned, a little confused: "It's not a lie, I did ask her to take me to the river outside the city that day to see if I could think of anything, I happened to meet this bandit leader, and I was defenseless for a while, and he arrested me and Miss Hu in a courtyard." Later, I broke free from his men and escaped to save Miss Hu, from being caught to saving her, the whole process, Miss Hu's reaction was not like being familiar with him. ”
Ji Yunyun twisted her eyebrows and thought for a moment, and said slowly: "That is that I didn't know each other before, but I don't know what happened after that, Miss Hu still concealed her dealings with him even though she knew that he was the leader of the bandits." ”
"What happened after that...... Qi Cheng thought for a while and said: "After that, Miss Hu has been helping out in the tofu shop, and she rarely even goes to the street, and she is surrounded by people she knows on weekdays, and people who come to buy tofu, I don't remember anything special happening." ”
Then how could she and the bandit leader look familiar, the two were puzzled, Feng Ji said next to him: "Shizi, madam, if Miss Hu and the bandit leader are familiar with each other, and the two have met in private, does that mean that the bandit leader's threat to arrest her to go to the mountains to be the wife of the village is fake?" ”
Ji Yunyun was stunned, she forgot about it. Qi Cheng frowned and said slowly: "This matter was told to me by her after I woke up that day, and I didn't suspect it at the time, because when I went to save her, I did see that the bandit leader wanted to force her." I promised her that I would protect her from the bandit, and every time I wanted to leave, she would bring it up and talk about it, so I never left. ”
Ji Yunyun's eyes showed a cold light, the last time Hu Qiao'er talked about the bandit leader, just when she wanted to take Qi Cheng away, maybe at that time, Hu Qiao'er was already familiar with the bandit leader and had met in private.
Feng Ji said: "Since she told a lie about this matter, it is not uncommon for her to tell a lie about the child in her belly." The subordinates thought that the child in her belly would not be the bandit leader, when the son was in a coma, she also smoked too much incense, if the bandit leader turned around and came back, she had no power to resist. Later, she didn't want people to know that her innocence was taken away by a bandit, so she hid it, but the bandit leader pestered her from time to time, and the two became acquainted. Then on the night of the thirtieth, he accidentally found out that he was pregnant, so he lied that he was pregnant with the child of the son, not only to hide the matter of the bandit leader, but also to let himself stay by the side of the son forever, killing two birds with one stone. ”
