"The situation in Wutong Village is unknown, Mrs. Hua should wait for the Qin guards to come back and go together." Imperial Doctor Mei said worriedly.

Hua Ronghua paused, "Wait for him to come back and let him rush over there, now just let me wait here, I really can't wait." And that Wutong Village is from the south gate, I remember that there seem to be people looking for children over there, and I will take them with me then! ”

As he spoke, the horses had been brought in, and the saddle was ready, Hua Ronghua directly helped the saddle and turned over on the horse.

Seeing this, Imperial Doctor Mei no longer persuaded him, and only instructed the remaining few Imperial Forest Soldiers to go with him.

Hua Ronghua pulled the reins and went straight to the south, two Royal Forest soldiers followed on horseback, and when they arrived at the South City Gate, Hua Ronghua did not see the Royal Forest Army looking for children at a glance, and in a hurry, she opened her voice and shouted, "Mo An, Mo An!" ”

A woman walking down the road with two men in armor on horseback was already a draw for attention, not to mention her shouting in disregard of her image.

But thanks to her shouting, soon, Mo An came over with three Royal Forest Soldiers.

"Why did the young lady come here when she didn't sit in the post house?" Mo An asked with a frown.

Hua Ronghua didn't care about Mo An's questioning tone, and said anxiously: "Have you seen a group of beggars carrying a large two small sacks out of the city at the South City Gate!" ”

Mo An was stunned, "A group of beggars? I've been walking around here for a long time, and there's a beggar squatting in the corner over there, I've never seen a group of them! And I haven't seen anyone carrying sacks out of the city, and occasionally they are stacked on the car, but there are more than three! Why did the young lady ask that? Is there news of the two sons? ”

"Just now a catcher said that when he was patrolling the South City Gate, he came across a group of beggars carrying sacks containing Niu Ya and two children out of the South City Gate! He wanted to stop but didn't! ”

"Impossible! We've been looking for children here, and we've never seen so many beggars! And if they go out of the city with sacks, the soldiers guarding the gate will stop them! Mo An was puzzled, and said, 'I'll ask,' and walked over to the beggar in the corner.

Hua Ronghua glanced at the city gate, and sure enough, those who went out of the city and those who entered the city were divided into two teams, and there were four or five soldiers standing on both sides of the city gate, who would occasionally ask or check on the people who went out of the city or entered the city. A group of beggars running with sacks on their backs could not have remained indifferent.

Thinking of this, Hua Ronghua got off the horse and also came to the beggar who Mo An asked, only to hear him say, "...... A bunch of beggars? How can it be? The prefect does not allow beggars to go into the city to beg, and I can squat here because I am a fellow villager with the captain of the squad guarding the city, or I would have been put in prison long ago! ”

Hearing the beggar's words, Hua Ronghua was even more sure that what Da Liu said was a lie, but looking at the direction of the city gate, she still wanted to go to Wutong Village to take a look in person!

Mo An asked reluctantly, "Have you been squatting here all the time?" Haven't you seen any suspicious people go out of town with a pair of twins about four years old and a girl ring who is taller than a man? ”

The beggar glanced at Mo An, grinned, and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, "The little one has been squatting here since dawn, and he hasn't even moved his nest to pee, but I haven't eaten for most of the day, and I can't remember some things clearly!" ”

"Here you go!" Mo An took out an ingot of silver weighing about five taels from his bosom and threw it to the beggar.

"Thank you, thank you, sir!" The beggar happily picked up the silver and stuffed it into the pocket he had sewn into his crotch.

"Okay, have you seen the people I mentioned?" Mo An frowned and covered his nose, the smell of this beggar was too strong.

The beggar tied his trousers and asked, "Did you lose the old man's child?" But I advise you not to look outside the city, there are so many green buildings and small houses in the city, there is no need to go far at all, just sell the child directly in the city, and it will be over, and I won't see the people you said for most of the day! ”

"Shut up!" Mo An was annoyed that he was talking nonsense, and kicked his broken bowl to pieces.

"Ouch, my dinner guy!" The beggar was distressed enough.

Mo An ignored him, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Hua Ronghua standing behind him with a pale face, "Young lady, it seems that the two little sons are not fighting here and going out of the city, is it that the fast catcher brother is wrong?" ”

"If you read it wrong, there must be these people!" Hua Ronghua couldn't say what he was feeling in his heart now, and finally had a clue about the child, but found that the clue was fake, and this kind of mood of ups and downs was even more tormenting.

Mo An's face couldn't help but turn pale after thinking about it carefully, yes, didn't the beggar just say that he didn't see these people at all, but the arrest of the government just happened to say the opposite, so who lied? The beggar is just a beggar for food, and he has no grudge against the two sons and his party, so there is no reason to lie at all! The only one who lies is the government is caught quickly, but why?

"Young lady, what shall we do now?" Mo An now vaguely felt that things were not as simple as he thought.

"Wutong Village ......" Hua Ronghua looked at the city gate with some hesitation, according to her heart's wishes, she wanted to find out, but if it was really a trap, then what should she do? How can I save the child if I fall into it? But if you don't go, won't you even have the last clue?

Hua Ronghua's embarrassment, Mo An also felt it, he gritted his teeth, "Young lady, why don't I go to Wutong Village, if the two little sons are there, I will rescue them!" ”

Hearing him say this, Hua Ronghua had a moment's heartbeat, and then shook his head, if it has been determined that Wutong Village is a fake clue, then it makes no difference who goes. Moreover, she just thought that there should be a clue in addition to Wutong Village.

"Go back and ask that Da Liu clearly!" Hua Ronghua turned around and walked back. What Da Liu said was false to prove that he had not seen Niu Ya and the child, but he correctly said the child's clothing, proving that he knew about the child's disappearance, so he had the child's clues in his hands, and the key was how to make him tell the truth.

Mo An thought about it and followed back to the inn, anyway, there was finally a clue.

But the group met Qin Shan who was in a hurry on the way, and his face was not very good, and he was still a little panting.

"Qin Shan, what's wrong?" Hua Ronghua stopped his horse and asked.

"Go back and talk about it." Qin Shan said this directly, then turned around and ran back.

Hua Ronghua's heart sank, his expression was to follow Da Liu and get some clues, could it be that something bad happened to the child? She rushed to Qin Shan's side with the reins and asked worriedly, "Is there something wrong with the child?" ”

Qin Shan pursed his lower lip, "I haven't seen the two sons yet, but there are clues." ”

"What clues?" Hua Ronghua asked impatiently.

"Let's go back and talk about it." I don't know if it was Hua Ronghua's illusion, she felt that Qin Shan looked around when she said this.

When he returned to the post house, Qin Shan's forehead was faintly sweating, and Mo An, who was dragged on horseback by a royal forest soldier halfway behind, ran to the side with a pale face and vomited, got up in the middle of the night, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, didn't care about the dirt on his body, and trotted behind a few people into the house.

"What the hell is going on? What is the clue? Hua Ronghua couldn't help but ask as soon as he entered the courtyard door.

Qin Shan calmed down and said, "What the catcher said is false, the two sons are not in Wutong Village but in Rouge Fang. ”

"Rouge Workshop?" Hua Ronghua's breath tightened, and when he heard this name, it was not a good place.

Mo An, who came in later, asked Qin Shan complainingly, "Since you know the place, why don't you hurry up and rescue Gongzi?" ”

Qin Shan ignored Mo An's words and continued: "I came back to tell you that the masterminds behind this matter are the prefect and Quqi County, so you must not rely on them to find the child, and I also heard that they plan to snatch away the 200,000 taels of silver while we are in a mess!" ”

Sure enough, it's not that simple! Hua Ronghua's heart that has been hanging slightly let go of a little, and finally found the root! is full of doubts, why would the prefect and the county target themselves? Is it just to grab the silver, so he used his two children to make a raft? How did she know that she was about to cause this trouble because of her mouth.

Mo An also looked incredulous, "Is the prefect crazy?" Attacking the Imperial Forest Army and robbing the imperial court is tantamount to rebellion! He's not afraid of getting into trouble? ”

Qin Shan glanced at him, "The person who did it is not from the government, and the scapegoat has already been found, as long as we are all dead, who knows what is going on?" ”

"Scapegoat? Isn't he a villager from Wutong Village? Imperial Doctor Mei, who had been listening, couldn't help but interject.

"Yes."

"No wonder they want to lead us to Wutong Village!" Hua Ronghua suddenly asked anxiously: "Where is that rouge shop?" Quick, let's go and save the kids. ”

Qin Shan shook his head, "I'll just go by myself, that place is very close to the prefect's back office, if there are too many people who go, it won't be good to attract attention and turn people away." I came back and said that I wanted Mrs. Hua to have an idea, I can't stay here any longer, and I have to plan early. ”

Hua Ronghua gritted his teeth and gave Qin Shan a deep blessing, "Then please, Qin Guard!" ”

"Don't worry!" Qin Shan also had a belly full of fire, he was a guard with a knife from the East Palace, but it turned out that the child was stolen under his nose, and this face was simply crackling!

Qin Shan left, Hua Ronghua also hurriedly arranged, first pointed to the Royal Forest Army named Ah Wen who also went to the South City Gate to investigate, "I remember that your horse is riding well, right?" Now ride your horse after Fuki-sama, and tell him what is happening here, and let him be more careful, and it is better to take a detour, and it is better to walk a few more steps than to lose his money. ”

"Yes, my subordinates know." Ah Wen also knew that if the silver was lost, his life would be worried, so he didn't dare to delay at the moment, so he got on the horse and chased in the direction of Fuxi and them.

"Mo An, hurry up and pack your things, set up the carriage, and be ready to go at any time."

"Got it, young lady." Although Mo An's stomach was still churning heavily, he couldn't care about it at this time, and staggered to pack his things.

Hua Ronghua stood there and thought about it and asked Imperial Doctor Mei, who was frowning on the side, "Your Excellency should know where those villagers are staying, right?" ”

Imperial Doctor Mei nodded, and couldn't help asking, "Mrs. Hua wants to ......?"

"After all, it's dozens of lives, can you take a trip, tell them, and then send my two carts of rice over by the way. Don't worry, I'll have someone drive with you, and it will save us from running for our lives and having to take care of rice, it's too troublesome. ”

"Madame is kind-hearted!" Imperial Doctor Mei arched his hand at Hua Ronghua, and a smile appeared on his face, "However, you don't need me to send rice, just let my medicine boy go." I'd better stay, and I'll help with the two children when they come back. ”

"Thank you!" Hua Ronghua thanked her, and after Imperial Doctor Mei said this, her heart involuntarily tightened, what if, what if the child was abused?
