On the way to Chengfuyuan, I met Xianglian.

There was a big accident on Zhuang Yu's birthday, and the county lord asked Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Pu brothers to be locked up at home, and they were not allowed to go out to play and mess around. Xianglian doesn't have to say that Zhuang Pu often has to go to Chengfuyuan to make a report to the county lord in the day, and will probably tell the county lord what the second master did today, what he ate, and slept well, which is the meaning of asking for Zhuang Pu to come to Chengfuyuan.

On this day, I should also tell the county lord about the small things about Zhuang Pu's life, and I happened to bump into Baozhu and Jiangzhu coming back from Shizhai.

Seeing that the two of them were panicked, and there were tears on their faces, Xianglian thought that something big had happened, so she went to care about one or two. Who knows, Jiangzhu's mouth is slightly faster, and she said: "Oops, Miss Qi is gone!" ”

Xianglian just wanted to ask more questions, but saw Baozhu pull the pearl fiercely.

Jiang Zhu recognized it and immediately closed her mouth. Xianglian saw that their faces were so embarrassed, she knew that there must be an accident, so she didn't dare to ask more, and she was going to Chengfu Yuan to tell the county lord about it, and now she was trembling and hesitating. It happened that one day later, Zhuang Jue sent gold paper to send her a note, and the note was straightforward, saying that she was invited to go to Jinghua Xie to ask how Yu Qi was doing. Because she heard Jiang Zhu say that "Miss Qi is gone", Xianglian paid attention to Yu Li's affairs, and inquired a little about it, only then did she determine that the county lord locked Yu Qi in Xifu, and this matter was strict. So, Xianglian was afraid of making trouble, so she wrote a message to send to Zhuang Yu, but only said perfunctorily: "Girl An! I was afraid that Zhuang Pu would be implicated if she inquired like this, and his wife would blame Zhuang Pu for this, so she made a small report to the county lord, saying that Jin Paper had come to her and wanted to ask her to go to Jinghua Xie to ask Miss Qi about something, but she couldn't leave and didn't go. In the evening, the county lord severely punished the gold paper, and then moved Zhuang Yu from the courtyard where he lived daily into Chengfu Yuan. This is the same as before.

Now I don't talk about how Xianglian helped Zhuang Yu, but that Baozhu and Jiangzhu went to report to the county lord that Yu Qi had disappeared in Shizhai.

to the lord of the county.

At that moment, the county lord sat on the kang to do handicrafts, sketching and painting gold on porcelain. Hearing the sound of someone lifting the curtain and coming in, the county lord stopped the pen in his hand slightly, raised his eyes slightly, and glanced away.

The orb and the bead came in at the right time and bowed.

The county lord said lazily: "It's getting more and more unruly." I went for a day, but I was reluctant to come back. What benefits did Beifu give you? ”

Baozhu and Jiangzhu trembled, originally had something in their hearts, but when they heard that the county lord was so blamed, they couldn't stand and knelt down.

Baozhu burst into tears and fell to the ground.

The county lord was originally joking, but seeing them so pretentious, he put away the porcelain and pen in his hand, and said with a smile: "Heh, I'll just say a joke, but it will scare you." In other words, the legs and feet are on your legs, and it is up to you where to go, and I don't bother to care. Get up! ”

The two people below did not dare to get up.

The county lord said strangely: "What's the matter? Get up! ”

Jonju looked at the orb worriedly.

Baozhu lay on the ground and replied, "Mrs. forgive your sins!" Mrs. forgiveness! ”

The county lord said: "I just said a joke, how can you take it seriously!" You and I don't have to be a day or two, but this is not as good as a new little girl. Let the people on the side see it, won't you laugh at it, who will obey you in the future? ”

Orb still wouldn't look up and get up.

Jiangzhu said: "Call back to my wife, I just went to Shizhai to look for Sister Baozhu, when I first arrived, I saw that she was very anxious and was crying there." ”

The county lord frowned slightly, and said, "What? Miss Qi sprinkled and didn't give color, you see? ”

Jiang Zhu wanted to answer again.

Baozhu raised her teary eyes and said, "Madam, Miss Qi is gone." ”

The county lord was stunned.

Subsequently, Baozhu told Cao Shi about going to Shizhai before and after. After hearing this, the county lord was furious, stood up, pointed to the jewel and said, "You also follow these nonsense who don't understand the rules, and you don't take me seriously anymore!" When something happened, I didn't want to think about it, but I thought about how I would guarantee it. It's a shame that you're an old man by my side! ”

The county lord didn't say anything else, and she didn't say what to do with the orb, she walked out with her skirt. Baozhu and Jiangzhu saw that Jun took the initiative to go out, so they naturally wanted to follow, so they hurriedly got up, wiped their eyes and tears.

After a while, the three of the county lord, master and servant rushed to Shizhai.

Sure enough, as Baozhu said, looking inside and out, it can be seen that there has been an accident, and there is indeed no trace of Yu Qi in the house.

The county lord sat on the bed where Yu Qi was sleeping, suppressed his anger and anger, and was thinking.

Baozhu and Zhuzhu knelt in front of her.

The county lord said, "You'd better find people for me." ”

After that, he got up angrily and went back to Chengfu Yuan. Baozhu and Jiangzhu discussed, presumably Miss Qi went out over the wall and ran back to Jinghua Xie is undecided. Waiting to send the county lord back to Chengfu Yuan, the two of them ran non-stop to Zhongfu Shouzhongju to inquire, and when they got there, as usual. Entering the mirror, I saw Zisu repairing flowers in the courtyard, and I looked sad.

didn't wait for Baozhu to speak, Zisu came to ask about Yu Qi, Baozhu saw Zisu like this, and thought: "People haven't returned to the mirror!" ”

This time he came and went, Baozhu and Jiangzhu didn't say a word, and stood and listened to Zisu say a few words.

Zisu said again: "Ask the two sisters to help me say a few words, so I can ask my wife to be kind and let the girl come back, or let me go with the girl!" ”

Baozhu and Zhuzhu didn't answer, but nodded.

Zisu was confused by the inexplicable coming and going of the two of them, and chased them outside the Zhongfu, Jiang Zhu turned around to stop her, and said, "Don't follow, the girl wants to come back, and she will come back naturally." We're coming to see you, nothing else. ”

Zisu thought: "I'm afraid that Miss Qi asked the two to come and see her!" Thinking like this, my heart is much more comfortable, and I won't make trouble.

From Jinghua Xie back to Xifu.

The two of them went to the county lord again to report.

Baozhu said: "We were afraid that the girl would go back to Jinghua, so we went to take a look." ”

The county lord said angrily: "See? ”

Baozhu's eyes were moist with tears, and he said, "No." The girl didn't go back either. ”

The county lord sneered and said, "It's more and more obvious that you are able to deal with things!" ”

Orb hooked his head and face, and listened. Rest, the county lord sighed and said, "You Miss Qi really want to go back, I'm afraid that you are entering the door of Shouzhongju, where can you find it?" Then he said, "I'll have to go to Shouzhongju in a while, and you can ask the kitchen to prepare a few side dishes while it's time for dinner." ”

It means that you don't have to go with me, you can just follow the beads.

When Jiang Zhu heard this, her face was overjoyed.

Baozhu's heart was cold to the soles of his feet, and Qi Qiran looked at Jiangzhu, jealous and remorseful in his heart. During dinner, the county lord did not eat, and took Jiangzhu and Yuping to Shouzhongju to ask for peace.

The purpose is clear, to explore the whereabouts of Feng Yuqi.

Baozhu couldn't hide in the house, so he lit a lantern and went to Shizhai to look for someone, but he didn't dare to return until late at night.

The county lord couldn't find anything in Shouzhongju, and then went back to Xifu, went to Zhuang Yu House to walk around, and then went to Zhuang Yu House to walk around, and then went back to Chengfu Yuan, and wanted to call Bao Zhu to ask again, and the girl at the bottom said that Bao Zhu went to the Phoenix Pavilion earlier.

The county lord knew in his heart that Baozhu was afraid of being involved, so he went to find Yu Qi alone. In this way, the county lord gave up and waited all night for the jewel to reply.

The next day, the orb did not return.

At noon, the county lord asked Jiangzhu: "Baozhu hasn't returned yet?" ”

Jiangzhu went out to ask people, but they all said that they hadn't seen them, so they came to tell the county lord: "They all said that they hadn't seen anyone for a day." ”

The county lord said, "You go to Shizhai to have a look." ”

Jiangzhu received the order and went to Shizhai to see. When I arrived at Shizhai, no one answered the door for a long time, and I looked through the crack in the door, quietly, and it became more and more desolate here. I just wanted to leave in a blink of an eye, but in a trance, I saw a person sitting on a stone in the distance by the well of a pile of stones, looking down at the mouth of the well.

Isn't that man orb, who's who?

Jiangzhu thought that Baozhu was looking for a short view, so he desperately knocked on the door. The orb is as if he didn't hear it. Because she was worried, Jiangzhu hurriedly pulled back and reported to the county lord, who said, "What are you waiting for?" Aren't things troublesome enough? If you can't open the door, let people arch the door open. ”

She was about to call someone to the arch when suddenly she returned.

Baozhu came to kneel down to the county lord and said, "I have been keeping watch all night, and I can't see the girl." Ask your wife to condemn her. ”

When the county lord saw her like this, he also felt pity in his heart, and wanted to be angry, but his heart felt unbearable, so he said: "You go down to rest for a while, and then go to see it later, and if you don't come back, let's all go to the old lady to suffer!" "These are words to scare Baozhu and others.

In fact, the county lord thought about it all night and secretly thought: "Where can a person run if he falls?" Or because of the Beifu to see her, she was angry and hid! ”

Thinking so, the county lord didn't care much, and hoped that one day, Yu Qi would automatically appear and kowtow to admit his mistake.

About a day or two later, the county lord should not know about Yu Qi's disappearance, and ignore it. The hard jewel runs back and forth in the stone fasting every day. Fortunately, Zhuang Jue distracted the county lord and dealt with Zhuang Jue's move in the next two days.

And so, a few more days.

On this day, Baozhu came back from Shizhai, and was just about to go in to report the progress of Shizhai to the county lord, when she suddenly heard someone talking in the house, knowing that Xianglian was coming, she didn't dare to go in. After Xianglian came out, she quietly entered through the side door.

Probably as usual, he told the county lord that he went to Shizhai to find it, and he searched all over the corners, but he couldn't see Miss Qi. The county lord said: "People have the heart to hide, you don't want to find it." What did you do to make her feel uncomfortable? ”

The county lord blamed Baozhu again, so as not to be scolded along with Jiangzhu and Yuping.

At this moment, I heard Zhuang Ying talking to Xianglian outside, saying that he wanted to borrow books. The county lord was curious, stopped scolding Baozhu and the others, went out to see what was going on, and when he came out, he saw Xianglian coming out of Zhuang Jue's new house, and the county lord called Xianglian to stop.

Here, it is the same as the previous situation Zhuang Yu begged Xianglian to give a letter to Yu Qi.

The county lord blamed Baozhu for too much, and was afraid that she would not be able to stand the torment in her heart, so when it came to borrowing books, she saw that Xianglian had a copy of "Mirror Flowers" in her hand, and felt that this book was a waste of people's minds, so she asked Baozhu to go in and find "National Policy" to exchange it.

Here, the county lord Mingli deals with the matter of borrowing books and secretly appeases Baozhu.

Unexpectedly, the county lord did this with good intentions, but it made Baozhu's conscience uneasy. The jewel is getting harder and harder to find Yu Qi. I really couldn't find it, so Baozhu went to Beifu to ask for Cao's family privately.

"Now, our wife blames me in every way," said Baozhu. In the end, you know, wife, horizontal and vertical has nothing to do with me. At best, I'm a guide. Ask my wife to help me find it, it's inconvenient to send someone, then ask my wife to go and tell our wife, give me a testimony, and I can get out. Otherwise, I will not be able to rest day and night. ”

Cao said: "As I said before, this matter is none of your business. The girl's heart is also a little narrower, just if she can't die, she still spends these scheming to harm people. I see, don't look for her, let her go. Your wife doesn't care, that's not what you mean. ”

Cao's attitude disappointed Baozhu greatly.

Unable to get help, Baozhu cried and returned to Chengfuyuan, knelt down in front of the county lord, knelt down, only said that he was willing to pay for his sins, and told the county lord how he went to Beifu to ask the Cao family for help, and how the Cao family refused to speak.

When the county lord heard this, he trembled with anger!
