Chapter Forty-Eight: Sudden Change in the Storm (I)
Looking at the delicate and delicious rhombic flour cake on the table, Apple had a salivating expression, "Owner, you haven't eaten much for two days, isn't this Ling flour cake your favorite snack?" If you don't like it today, what do you say to the slave you want? The small ones go and order the kitchen to make them. ”
What does she want? She wants to die! An leisurely raised two big panda eyes, stared at the apple with blank eyes and shook his head, "You go down to rest, let me be quiet." ”
Did those two people negotiate?! Confess to her on the same day, and propose to her at the same time!? Do you have to force her to hang herself from a beam?! Although Yeluqi suspended Xiao and Li's marriage on the grounds that 'the marriage of children is a lifelong event and needs to be considered in the long run'. But the two proud sons of the world, at the same time, openly showed love to a woman in full view of everyone, which undoubtedly pushed An Youran to the forefront and became the focus of everyone's mouth, and became the target of the girls. Wherever she went, there were people pointing and commenting, so she had to close the door and turn into a turtle with a shrunken head.
Seeing that An Youran was neither energetic nor willing to eat, Apple was quite worried and couldn't help but continue to persuade, "Owner, you can't do this, your body will not be able to bear it." In case of illness, the king will blame the slave and maid for not taking good care of him. You should be poor little ones, and you can barely eat something......"
Just as Apple's bitter mouth was foaming, he suddenly walked into a small room and interrupted the report, "Owner, someone sent a letter outside the door, saying that it is not necessary to petition the owner of the village." ”
"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Mingmei's eyes, she had never had any contact with others in Lingbei, except for the intersection with the Southern Courtyard and the palace. Someone suddenly sent a letter to the door, how could she not be full of confusion?
Stretching out her white and slender fingers, An leisurely took the letter presented by the little girl's hands, and just glanced at it, she jumped up from the chair in shock, and ordered to Apple in a hurry, "Quickly order someone to prepare the carriage, I want to go out!" ”
Although he was curious, seeing An's leisurely and anxious expression and pale complexion, Apple didn't know how to delay, so he ran all the way to the stable and ordered the coachman to set up the carriage and prepare the horse. After a while, An Youran also quickly put on a cloak and appeared outside the door. Seeing that everything was ready, he nodded and got into the carriage without saying a word.
Seeing that she was traveling lightly, and did not inform the guards or have any plans to bring any attendants, Apple persuaded uneasily, "Master Zhuang, Lord Han is also coming back from the Southern Courtyard soon." Why don't you wait a little longer and take him with you, so that you can take care of him. ”
Looking back at the apple, An smiled leisurely and comforted, "I'll go back as soon as I go, and I'll be back in an hour or two!" Don't worry, it'll be fine, you wait for me in the village. ”
A premonition of uneasiness welled up in her heart, and Apple wanted to persuade her again, but Ann leisurely did not wait for her to open her mouth and resolutely ordered the coachman to set off, and when she came back to her senses, all she saw was the back of the carriage that had gone in the dust in the yellow sand......
From the hot midday sun to the setting sun, Apple waited outside the door, but did not wait for the familiar figure she was looking forward to. Seeing that the time had passed, she didn't see An return leisurely, but she was so anxious that her little face turned red, and the tears of the bean couldn't stop rolling in her eyes. Just when she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, a low and hoarse male voice suddenly sounded behind her, "Apple, what are you doing standing here?!" It's almost dinner, why do you see so fascinated that you don't even want to eat? ”
"Lord Han!" Like a drowning man seeing a life-saving straw, Apple's eyes lit up with excitement when he saw Hanzi. How can we take into account the difference between men and women, the difference in identity? As soon as he came up, he pounced, grabbed his shirt, and hurriedly shouted, "The owner of the village hurried out of the door when he received a letter, saying that he would return in an hour or two." But I waited until noon until now, and I couldn't see her. How's that good? ”
"Where did the girl go crazy?" Thinking that An Youran had been out for seven or eight hours, Han Erqi also faintly felt that something was wrong, "You tell me the location, I'll pick her up!" ”
With that, he took the reins from his squire and wanted to mount. Unexpectedly, Apple stopped in front of him, and the corners of his mouth drooped and he cried, "I don't know! The owner didn't give an explanation when he left! If I knew, I would have ordered someone to look for it, and I wouldn't be in a hurry here, there is no way! ”
"What!?" At this time, even Han Erqi couldn't stay calm anymore, and the kindness that wanted to comfort Apple turned into ashes in an instant, "Did you let her go out without asking?!" How can you be so confused! What about faith? Can you stay? Do you have an impression of the voice and appearance of the person who sent the letter? ”
"Nope! The letter was taken away by the owner of the village......" was questioned by him, Apple cried even more happily, snot and tears mixed together, it was miserable, "As for the person who sent the letter, I also asked the little guy who came to report it, and he only said that the person who came was of medium stature, and he kept his head down, and he didn't see his facial features clearly at all!" ”
Her answer made Han Erqi's mind explode instantly: This time it's really not good! Because Xiao Suchen and Li Yan confessed through the golden knife, everyone in the city was well known. Nowadays, there are many people in Yaojing City who are jealous and hold grudges against An Youran! Such a strange message, such a message disappeared without any news......
Not daring to hesitate for a moment, Han Erqi jumped on the horse, and instructed Apple as he rode his horse, "I'll go to the East Palace of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to find out if the girl is with him." You go to the South Courtyard to find your brother and explain this matter to him! Arrange a few more small servants with quick legs and feet to guard the village, and if the girl comes back, let them report to the south courtyard as soon as possible! ”
Before the words fell, a man and a horse were a few feet away. His ears were filled with the sound of the wind whistling by, and Han Erqi went to the East Palace non-stop, the palace and even any streets and alleys that An Youran had ever visited, or the teahouses and restaurants that might appear, but he never found anything. With the last glimmer of hope, he turned his horse's head and came to Dayu's post house, but unexpectedly met Xiao Suchen who was about to enter the door outside the door.
"Brother," feeling uneasy in his heart, Han Erqi glanced at Xiao Suchen, whose face was pale, "Girl, I didn't find ......"
"I know!" The handsome face did not have the warmth of the past, but was replaced by a murderous atmosphere, Xiao Suchen's eyes were as cold as the cold wind of winter, "When Apple came to the South Courtyard to send a message, I ordered someone to secretly find Biluo's whereabouts. Nowadays, there is only this Dayu Post House in Yaojing that has not returned! ”
"Could it be...... Is it true that the prince of King Jin couldn't get married, so he had the audacity to deceive Biluo!? Filled with righteous indignation, the bone joints creaked, and Han Erqi gritted his teeth and said with resentment, "Look at that guy who looks like a human, how can he act so badly!" It's not a thing......"
Just as he was scolding indignantly, suddenly it was dark, and a figure fell from the sky and fell at their feet. Han Erqi looked at it, but it was a master among the shadow guards in the Southern Courtyard, and he saw that his eyes were closed and he was covered in injuries. I couldn't help but bend down and ask, "What's wrong with you?" How could it hurt so badly? ”
However, it was a cold and cold voice that answered him, "This person came to peep up and down in my post house uninvited, and it is a great shame to leave him with a dog's life!" King Xiao, bring your eagle dog back and take care of it, don't come here again to provoke and harass! Otherwise, next time it will not be to lead people, but to lead corpses! ”
"His Royal Highness!" The clear eyes seemed to be quenched with a layer of sharp blades, sharp and sharp piercing straight into the bones. Xiao Suchen raised his eyes to look at Li Yan, who was standing condescendingly and arrogantly on the eaves, without any polite greetings, and went straight to the point, "Biluo was called out by letter at noon and has not returned, but in your house?!" ”
"Biluo?" An imperceptible panic flashed in her amber eyes, the moonlit clothes flew up, and Li Yan fluttered down like a celestial, "She never came!" What the hell is going on!? ”
