Chapter 261: Missing

As soon as these words came out, Chi Xiaomei's crying suddenly stopped, and she looked at her with a frightened expression.

"What?" The other servants gathered around and looked at the woman in amazement.

"Everyone is in a hurry, the adults are young and don't know, why are we panicking, you see, this figure..." The woman stretched out her hand and pulled Chi Xiaomei, pushing her down in front of everyone.

Lu Yan, who learned of the servant's return, was surprised and came back to kill.

"To tell you the truth, you will not survive, but if you tell the truth, my wife will solve the misunderstanding, and I can spare your life, otherwise, if my wife does not return for a day, you will be punished by our army for one day, and the punishment in our army is used to deal with the Tartars... Speaking of.. At this time, you came to destroy my family, could it be that you are a Tartar? He looked at Chi Xiaomei coldly and said.

Chi Xiaomei's face turned pale, and she finally couldn't resist her psychological breakdown and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"....There was no adult near that day....the adult was drunk.... I was thinking to... But the adults hugged me... Only.. Just pushed me away.."

"Then I.. So what's going on with those things in the bed where I woke up? Lu Yan asked.

The women present were all from the past, and they understood what he was asking, and bowed their heads with a red face.

Although Chi Xiaomei is a body, she has also been trained to enter the official prostitute camp, and she saw it with her own eyes that day, so she also understood what he was asking, and bowed her head with a red face.

β€œβ€¦ Be... It's an adult holding the quilt by himself... Rub... Rub... Come out...."She spoke like a mosquito.

As soon as these words came out, Lu Yan was stunned and seemed to be sluggish.

"My lord.. The slave didn't mean to cling to the adult... It's just that.. It's just that the slave maid is also a girl from a good family, and she is really unwilling to do such a career....I have the opportunity to serve the adult, so I am lost, and I want to seek a way to live from the adult, I really don't have delusions, I just want to be a slave and a maid for a lifetime..."

Chi Xiaomei was still crying something, but Lu Yan couldn't hear it. He suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, ran out of the door, and before he had time to change his clothes, he got on his horse and ran out of the general's mansion.

Mabel, I didn't lie to you, I really didn't, I'm here to pick you up.

Lu Yanxin is like an arrow, if it weren't for the pro-soldier guards, he tried hard to dissuade him. I'm afraid that I will go straight to Xie County day and night.

In the early morning of the fourth day, the group came to Song Sanniang's house.

Hearing that Lu Yan was coming, the family who were having breakfast was surprised.

"Why are you here? Mei Bao also..."Song Sanniang came out, looked at Lu Yan who was striding in, looked behind him, and didn't see Liu Meibao.

"Auntie, I'll pick up Mabel." Lu Yan's eyes sparkled and he said loudly.

As soon as his voice fell, the three people in front of him were full of astonishment.

"Pick up Mabel?" Song Sanniang thought she had misheard, "Mei Bao.."

"What do you say? Sister, hasn't she already gone back? Zhou Liangyu stood up a few steps behind Song Sanniang and asked, his face frightened.

Lu Yan was also stunned.

"Auntie, I have something to do with Mabel. I'll make it clear to her now. He thought about it and didn't look at Zhou Liangyu. Instead, he looked at Song Sanniang and said sincerely.

Mabel is still angry and doesn't want to see him.

"What hysterical words do you say, I ask you!" Zhou Liangyu was in a hurry, and reached out to grab Lu Yan's clothes, "What's wrong with my sister?" ”

Song Sanniang hurriedly scolded Zhou Liangyu.

Xiao Ling also stepped forward and grabbed her husband, her face was slightly pale.

"Uncle. Mabel had left four days ago, and she said that there was something going on at home, so she left with the guards without lunch. Song Sanniang said with plastic surgery. She also thought of something, her body trembled slightly, and she wanted to ask something, but she felt that her mouth did not obey the call and she couldn't ask.

Lu Yan was stunned.

"The summons asked all the way, but I saw my wife passing by." He turned and shouted a command to the guards behind him.

The guards responded and turned away.

There was some eerie silence in the courtyard.

"Maybe I took a fork in the road and just missed it." Song Sanniang smiled and said, breaking the silence, but her smile was a little reluctant.

Until the time of the palm lamp, news came one after another.

"The wife went out of the county, and the city guards saw it in person, and went west along the road."

β€œ.. Pingyang Weiyi Station did not see the wife's convoy...."

The living room of Song Sanniang's house was brightly lit, Song Sanniang and Lu Yan were sitting there, and Zhou Liangyu was standing, listening to the news coming one by one.

From Xie County to Taiyuan Prefecture, the most direct and most frequent post stations along the way did not see Liu Meibao's convoy.

"You can still sit still!" Zhou Liangyu turned around and pounced on Lu Yan on the side, pulling him up, "What's wrong with you my sister?" Why did she come back all of a sudden? ”

"Dogs!" Song Sanniang slapped the table and shouted.

Zhou Liangyu let go of Lu Yan angrily and went to stand at the door.

"As soon as she came, I guessed that something was wrong, but I, this child, looked supple, in fact, she was the most tough, and unless she figured it out by herself, it didn't matter if anyone said it." Song Sanniang sighed, looked at Lu Yan and said, "How can there be no quarrel in this life, I think Mei Bao is not an unreasonable person, not to mention that the children are so old, she has a body, come to live at home for two days, think about it yourself, it's fine, I didn't dare to ask, I'm afraid that she is uncomfortable to ask, she has no other relatives, if she stays here and is uncomfortable, where else can she go?" I let her do whatever she wants, no, four days ago I told me that I was going back, and I was still happy on my face, saying that you were appointed as a general, because of the urgency of defense, I have not gone to the capital to report for assessment, and now things are not busy, so I want to go on a trip, and I have to take her with me..."

Lu Yan listened, his expression was slightly sluggish, and his hand on the armrest was tightly clenched.

Officials above the garrison are not local appointments and dismissals, but must go to the capital, through a series of procedures of the Ministry of Military Selection, his position as a general is specially approved by the emperor, the matter is urgent, there is no strict procedure, now it is not busy, the procedure should still be gone, and the emperor also wants him to go to a trip, to see, during the New Year, he and Liu Meibao said that when the time comes, take her and the child to go.

"What the hell is going on?" Song Sanniang took a deep breath and asked.

Lu Yan explained the matter in detail from beginning to end.

After listening to Zhou Liangyu, he turned around and wanted to scold again, but was scolded by Song Sanniang, so he had to kick away the stool on the side to get angry.

"She's not that foolish, since she promised you, she will definitely wait for you to make it clear to him." Song Sanniang plastic surgery said, "It must be a fork in the road." ”

Lu Yan nodded.

"Yes, she did what she said, and since she promised me, she will definitely wait for me to speak." He said, clenching the armrest.

This night. No one slept at Song Sanniang's house, and the news came before dawn the next day.

The only hope was disappointed.

News came from Taiyuan Mansion that Liu Meibao did not return home.

-------------------------------------------------

Wang Qiang, a lame man from Jiliu Village near the female salt pond, finally couldn't stand the scolding of his daughter-in-law, and went out early in the morning with a shovel and a basket.

While walking, he scolded and scolded, it was spring, and he didn't need to reclaim the fields, because his original fields had already lost all his gambling money. The daughter-in-law cried and scolded at home, forcing him to open up the wasteland.

Nowadays, wasteland is not easy to find, it is only in the place where no one wants, and what can be planted in this kind of place.

But the daughter-in-law didn't listen, saying that it was also something to collect three melons and two dates, in order to avoid the daughter-in-law running away, Wang Qiang had to come out to find it, fortunately he had seen a place a few days ago, next to the grove in the east of the village. Because it is close to the cemetery, the tree has a large shade. Therefore there is no race.

When Wang Qiang came to this land, he always felt that it was different from what he saw a few days ago, as if it had been leveled, and new soil was turned up.

Maybe the one was going to plant it first, but Wang Qiang didn't care about this.

"Lao Tzu planted it today, and it is Lao Tzu." He said indignantly, spat two mouthfuls of saliva on his hands, and began to dig the ground with a shovel. While digging and scolding, I suddenly felt that the shovel sank and I was tripped by something.

"Even you can't get along with Lao Tzu.." He scolded indignantly. Turning it over hard, a piece of the object was brought out and left aside.

Like a cloth bag?

Wang Qiang was stunned, and then he was pleasantly surprised, could it be that he had dug up the treasure hidden by his predecessors?

He hurriedly threw down his shovel, stepped over and leaned over to look, and when he looked down, he only smelled the rancid smell and looked at it.

Wang Qiang's screams suddenly sounded in the grove.

"Mother, it's a man!"

When Lu Yan got the news and arrived, the entire ground was dug up, the onlookers were dispersed, and Yan Ding and the soldiers who rushed to hear the news surrounded the place densely.

"Your Excellency.." Zhang Shun took a few steps over, his eyes were red.

Lu Yan only felt a bang, and his feet were a little floating.

He seemed to see Takako standing in front of him.

"Erlang, don't go and see... Listen to my brotherβ€”" he said, holding him back.

Through the crowd, he saw a pair of feet, which were his brother's feet, wearing shoes made by Guiziniang, exactly the same as those on his own feet.

Wang Mo squeezed aside and stood up, which also made Lu Yan wake up from his hallucination.

"Are there any wives and little masters?" Wang Mo asked cleanly.

"Nope." Zhang Shun also replied neatly.

Lu Yan only felt that the hands that were holding his neck were finally released, and he swallowed hard.

A big pit was dug here, and there were seventeen or eighteen corpses buried in the pit, or severed heads or severed hands and feet, without exception, the bodies and faces were like hedgehogs with feather arrows, and the death was tragic, and they were also wearing the uniform cotton armor of the Great Zhou soldiers, and they could distinguish their identities at a glance.

"Being able to kill all the guards so easily, and still have enough time to bury the traces of corpse destruction, this is not something that ordinary bandits can do..."Wang Mo twisted his short beard, squinted his eyes, and said, "It seems that the wife and the young master were ambushed by someone premeditated." ”

The news reached Song Sanniang's house, and Song Sanniang fell on the chair with black eyes.

"Why did I just let her go? My uncle hasn't come to pick it up yet, why did I let her go, I knew she had something on her mind..."She woke up, beat her chest and cried.

Just as she was grieving, another servant woman ran over in a panic.

"The young lady hanged herself." She hissed.

The Zhou family was in a panic, but fortunately found it in time, Xiao Ling was fine, she lay on the bed and cried in.

"What's going on? Okay.." Song Sanniang only felt tightness in her chest, and sat on the side and cried.

Lu Yan suddenly lifted the curtain and came in, and stood in front of Xiao Ling's bed in a few steps, and the servants were a little surprised by his unsuspicious movements.

"You chased her away, didn't you?" Lu Yan asked word by word.
