.

On the windy and sandy official road, the carriage moved forward rapidly, and I have to say that the people arranged by my grandfather were quite ordinary, and they were simply the type that could not be seen in the pile, so although there were many people in the group, they were not eye-catching.

Jiao Yue knew in her heart that if she really wanted to go to Xiliang, then she must be cautious.

It is precisely because of this that they arrived at the border of Xiliang smoothly half a month later, and they walked very quickly, and the weather was already hot at this time.

The temperature of Xiliang itself is higher than that of Daqi, and the more you reach the border, the hotter it becomes.

The weather was excellent on the day of arrival in Xiliang. The sky is clear, the grass is boundless, the blue sky is reflected, and the white clouds are slow.

With such a sunny weather and a beautiful scenery full of greenery as far as the eye can see, some people are unable to appreciate it, and Jiao Yue is this person.

After half a month of hard work, Jiao Yue has determined that Rong Zhan is missing, because she set off to Xiliang, Siping has no way, so she can only tell the truth and inform Jiao Yue, it turns out that Rong Zhan has been missing for more than two months, the last letter was written by Rong Zhan before, and then he disappeared, Siping had no way, and still sent the letter according to the master's words.

The gate of Xiliang City is heavily guarded, for this, Jiaoyue is not too worried, she uses a fake household registration certificate, for Xiliang people, she is going home, not from outside.

Sure enough, Jiao Yue and the others entered the city smoothly.

The capital of Xiliang is quite lively, and it is even a little more open than the capital, and many women are selling on the street, and sure enough, the customs are different at all.

Jiao Yue and his party came to the place where Qi Zhizhou had been placed in advance, this is a stronghold in Qi Zhizhou, and everyone was scattered during the process, so they gathered together again.

This is a tea shop, and the shopkeeper invited Jiaoyue and others to the inner room, and said, "My subordinates have seen Mrs., Mr. Su and Miss Su." ”

Jiao Yue recognized the shopkeeper and said, "Uncle Gui? ”

This is the ...... of Qi Shang Shufu Gardener.

Uncle Gui smiled: "Miss Su can actually recognize me, don't say it for a few years."

He has been away from Qi Shangshu Mansion for five or six years, and he has deliberately changed a lot, but he didn't expect to be recognized by Miss Su, he said, "Miss is still so smart." ”

Jiaoyue said: "I didn't expect Uncle Gui to be in Xiliang." ”

Then he said: "Has Uncle Gui contacted the person who is known as the prince in advance?" ”

Uncle Gui bowed: "We have been in contact in advance, and when Miss arrives, I will contact him as soon as possible." ”

Uncle Gui immediately arranged a place for Jiao Yue and the others, because this place is quite prosperous, many people from all over the world come to do small business, but it does not give people a very abrupt feeling. Jiaoyue took a deep breath, and when she came to Xiliang, Jiaoyue was not much relieved.

It's just that she doesn't have time to think more now, all she has to do now is to see Siping as soon as possible and ask about the specific situation.

In the evening, Siping came over, and when he saw Jiao Yue, he immediately knelt down on one knee: "My subordinates have seen Miss Su Qi,." ”

Unexpectedly, Miss Su Qi would come without regard for her own safety.

Jiao Yue hurriedly asked: "You get up first, I want to know, why did Brother Zhan disappear?" ”

Siping didn't plan to hide it from Miss Su Qi, except for Miss Su Qi, there were only Senior Sister Ji and Fourth Prince Su in the house.

Senior Sister Ji was originally her own person, and Su Sigongzi was able to come with Miss Seven regardless of his safety, which was also trustworthy.

He said: "Actually, this time the prince came in a hurry because we received news that the old prince and the old general Min had an accident because there was another inside story. And the news came out of the people who had been placed in the Xiliang Dynasty by the master. If it weren't for the critical illness of the old emperor of Xiliang this time, he would not have gotten this news by chance. It is precisely for this reason that our prince came firmly in person, but when we came to Xiliang, the person who delivered the news to us disappeared. While tracking down the whereabouts of this person, the prince investigated from other channels. We already had some eyebrows, one day the prince locked himself in the study and did not go out for a day, and when he went out again, he did not arrange for us to follow, and the result was that this time, he disappeared. ”

Jiao Yue clenched her fists and continued to ask, "Are there any other clues then?" ”

Jiaoyue barely managed to calm herself, if she wasn't calm at this time, .

She came here to find Rong Zhan.

"My subordinates have been looking for a long time, and the biggest object of suspicion is Murong Jiu, the ninth prince, but I have visited the palace twice at night, but I have not found a single clue." Siping was also anxious in his heart, but now he had no way out, so he could only look for it quietly, not daring to make a big move, just afraid that the person was not in Murong Jiu's hands. If the person is not in Murong Jiu's hands, and the news of the master's disappearance in Xiliang reaches Murong Jiu's side, then things will not be easy.

It's just that as time went on, he became more and more anxious.

"Murong Jiu?"

"I've already arranged for someone to keep an eye on Murong Jiu's mansion, but I can't see anything different."

Jiao Yue's fingers lightly tapped the tabletop, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Then you tell me, what clues did Rong Zhan know before he locked himself up?" ”

Siping shook his head bitterly, and he said, "My subordinates don't know. ”

Jiaoyue bit her lip and did not speak.

Su Qi'an held Jiaoyue's hand and said, "Jiaojiao, don't worry. ”

Then he raised his head, looked at Siping seriously, and said, "First of all, the people you have arranged to go out are all withdrawn." Don't let anyone know about our arrival in Xiliang except yourself. ”

Siping nodded.

"I understand this, I will not put Miss Seven in a dangerous situation."

"Although I don't know this Murong Jiu, I think the person who can make Brother Zhan taboo must not be an idle person, and maybe, he also knows your manpower well. Brother Zhan's disappearance, he must know. He will know to him whom you have arranged. It is impossible for him to work hard without noticing that someone is watching. You withdraw the person and see how he reacts. ”

Qi An was the calmest person among them at this time.

Siping said: "What you said has some truth, but if the person is really in his hands, we will withdraw the person......

Jiao Yue raised her head: "Withdraw, whether the person is in his hands or not, he will be surprised by your move, you have to make him move." ”

Jiaoyue clenched her fists, which had calmed down at this time, and she whispered: "You investigate all his properties." Then put all his itinerary together and give it to me. In addition, we can't put all our minds on his heart, and no one else can let it go. ”

Siping: "I do have a few doubters. I'll tidy it up later and I'll leave it to you. ”

Jiaoyue nodded, she thought for a while, and asked, "The last question, will the person who sent you the news betray you?" ”

Siping straightened, he shook his head firmly: "This must not be, he is missing, it can only be that something happened, it can't be a betrayal of us, I dare to guarantee this with my life." ”

Jiaoyue raised her eyebrows.

Siping: "That person is my eldest brother." ”

Jiaoyue stared at Siping, Siping felt that his throat was dry, but he still said: "We have been favored by our master since we were children, and many things are not enough for outsiders. I swear by my life that my eldest brother will never betray. ”

Jiao Yue raised the corners of her mouth, but she didn't smile, she said, "I know." ”

In just an hour, Siping prepared a lot of materials.

He said, "Miss Seven, I can't stay here forever, lest someone find out. If you have any questions, put them together and Uncle Gui can contact me, so it's better for us to be cautious. I can't hurt you. Otherwise...... Otherwise, the master will never forgive me. ”

With that, Siping quickly left.

Jiaoyue opened the registration made by Siping, these should be Murong Jiu's whereabouts.

I have to say that Rong Zhan's manpower arrangement is still very proper, whether it is after Rong Zhan's accident or before, Murong Jiu's affairs are also recorded in detail, Siping handled things properly, and he sent all Murong Jiu's itinerary for nearly a year.

Jiaoyue reads at night.

And Qi'an is to carefully check the whereabouts of other people to see if they are suspicious.

Seeing these investigation materials, Qi An sighed: "Brother Zhan has a lot of influence in Xiliang. ”

Or rather, deep.

A lot of people have been highlighted and tracked.

And this time, Si Pingken gave everything to Jiaoyue, and it was clear that he trusted her very much.

Jiao Yue said: "We are new to here, we must be careful, and before Murong Jiu has reacted, hurry up and find the flaw." Find Brother Zhan as soon as possible. ”

Qi An raised his head and asked, "Why are you so persistent in believing that Murong Jiu did it?" ”

After all, this is Xiliang, not Daqi, anyone can possibly, and if you don't see that person, it must be Murong Jiu.

Jiaoyue laughed lightly, and she said slowly: "If it was someone else, why didn't Murong Jiu move?" He is very obsessed with Brother Zhan, and he knows that Brother Zhan is gone, why doesn't he look for someone? Now that he is in Xiliang, it is his place, and it is much easier for him to quickly find Brother Zhan in his hands than us. But he didn't move, and I think that's the biggest problem. ”

Jiao Yue affirmed: "I asked you to investigate others, but it was just to do an extra layer of insurance, in fact, I decided in my heart that the person must be in Murong Jiu's hands, I just need to see, how can I find the flaw." As for not wanting to say it to Siping, it's because, I don't believe Siping's brother. ”

Jiao Yue's eyes were bright, and she barely hesitated, and she said seriously: "At this time, I don't believe in anyone who might make Rong Zhan disappear. I naturally believe in Siping, but it's always Siping's brother. ”

Jiao Yue was indifferent: "So, boy, help quickly." ”

Qi An looked at Jiao Yue, Jiao Yue raised her head and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

Qi An said: "I suddenly felt that my sister was very calm and powerful. I thought you'd panic, but it didn't. ”

Jiao Yue hehe: "At this time, if I still want to panic, then I don't need to come to Xiliang." ”

She said, "I must find Rong Zhan." ”

She looked up, serious: "I actually have an even more terrible conjecture. ”
