Chapter 242: Ah Chun is missing, I want to go back to Qingcheng
As soon as Hanyue heard that it was Chidi's letter, she immediately ordered the guards to bring the ranger into the mansion.
The man, dressed in coarse cloth and covered with dust, suddenly entered the nobleman's courtyard and looked a little uneasy.
"Where's the letter from the eldest brother?" The woman sitting behind a few cases asked.
Only then did the ranger realize his gaffe, and hurriedly took the letter from his bosom and handed it over.
Han Yue read the letter, but her face changed.
"Ah Chun is gone?"
"Yes...... On that day, Miss Ah Chun went out, but she didn't come back until it was getting late, so Brother Chidi took us to look for it, and the whole Qingcheng searched all over and didn't find it. ”
Han Yue frowned.
Ah Chun can be called her only friend, how could she be missing?
"Who did she offend in Qingcheng?" Han Yue asked.
The ranger shook his head, "With Big Brother Chidi here, our caravan has an excellent reputation, and it is impossible to offend anyone...... Ah Chun girl is shy and shy......"
Hanyue also knew Ah Chun's temperament, otherwise she would not have been bullied by others in the Yichang Hou Mansion and secretly shed tears every day.
"How is Gong Xu's health?" In the letter, Chidi mentioned the identity of Xu Gong, although there were only a few words, but between the lines made her feel faintly uneasy.
Xu Gong was already a little old, and when she found him, he was seriously injured again, and it was not easy to recover.
The ranger looked hesitant, as if he didn't know how to answer the question.
"Whatever you have to say, just say it." Tooth chimed in.
The man's eyes lit up when he saw the teeth, "You...... You are ......"
Tooth nodded slightly, "I was also a member of the caravan. ”
Only then did the ranger feel relaxed, "Since they are not outsiders, then I will tell the truth, since Ah Chun's disappearance, Xu Gong's body has been worse day by day, and Brother Chidi has invited a lot of doctors, but there has been no improvement, saying that it is difficult to pass this winter." ”
Han Yue's eyes dimmed.
Speaking of which, Xu Gong is her biggest benefactor.
From him, she got the book of "Hundred Things Attacking the City", although she was burned to death because of it in her previous life, but this life has achieved a marriage between her and Sikong Yanfei.
And she has long wanted to go back to Qingcheng.
Regarding her life experience, as well as Gu Lingxin, the princess of the Gu family, she wanted to ask from Duke Xu to understand.
Thinking of this, she stood up and asked the maid, "Where is the king now?" ”
"Inside the main hall."
Han Yue first asked the ranger to go down to rest, and she took her teeth to the earthen platform and ascended to the main hall.
There were four maids standing outside the hall, as well as the guards, all of whom were standing quietly, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
Han Yue glanced at them in surprise, "The king is here?" ”
"In the temple." A guard.
Han Yue was about to step in, but the guard raised his hand and stopped her, "Madame, wait a minute, let's go in, the king is talking to someone from the palace now." ”
Someone from the palace?
Han Yue's eyes widened, "Was it sent by the prince?" ”
"My subordinates don't know ......"
Since there are people in the palace, she can't go in without permission.
Just when she hesitated to go back first, Sikong Yan's deep voice came from inside the hall: "Who is outside?" ”
The guard raised his voice and said, "It's Mrs. Yue." ”
There was silence in the hall for a moment, and Sikong Yan said, "Let her in." ”
The guard dodged to the side and moved out of the way.
Han Yue pushed the door into the main hall alone.
Even in the daytime, the light in the hall was still a little dim, several candles were burning on several tables, and the smell of incense floated in the air.
Han Yue noticed that there were two strange men in the hall besides Sikong Yanfei, who were wearing Magi robes and looked full of arrogance.
Uncle Wang stood beside Sikong Yanfei, bowing slightly, showing his usual humility.
Sikong Yan's scarlet eyes followed Han Yue, and he kept watching her walk in front of him.
"If there's nothing urgent, just wait a while." Sikong Yan said.
Han Yue nodded slightly, came to the couch behind Sikong Yanfei and knelt down, well-behaved and obedient.
The two strange men peeked at Hanyue, how could they bear Hanyue's face covered with a veil, so they couldn't see it really.
"This is Mrs. Moon." One of them couldn't help but speak.
Sikong Yan turned his head sideways to look at Han Yue.
Han Yue didn't raise her head, she still hung her chin and leaned low, which was considered a return gift.
"Mrs. Du Yanyue's talent is a wise man, and I am fortunate to see it today." Two Magi.
Hanyue was not complacent because of this, on the contrary, the more the other party said this, the more respectful her attitude became.
They were from the palace, and she didn't believe their flattery.
"That's all for today." Sikong Yanfei seemed a little impatient.
The two Magi were not in a hurry, "The king had better prepare early, and ...... in ten days"
"Enough!" Sikong Yanfei suddenly snorted and interrupted the other party's words.
Han Yue was also taken aback by him, raised her head and looked at Sikong Yanfei in surprise, not understanding why he was suddenly so out of shape.
The two Magi saluted and withdrew.
"Uncle Wang." Sikong Yan seemed to be suppressing the anger in his heart, "You can also retreat." ”
Uncle Wang answered, but his eyes were fixed on Hanyue's body.
For some reason, Han Yue felt that Uncle Wang's eyes had a hint of complicated emotions.
Only she and Sikong Yanfei were left in the main hall, but Sikong Yanfei did not speak for a long time, and the atmosphere was dull.
Hanyue's body was sinking now, and her legs were a little numb after kneeling for a long time, so she quietly moved her body.
"Numb?" Sikong Yanfei said slowly.
Han Yue smiled, "It's uncomfortable to sit for a long time." ”
Sikong Yan looked at her belly, "It's going to be born in another month and a half." "This is his first child, and he doesn't know how much he wants to see him born.
Hanyue touched her belly, she didn't plan to tell him what Hua Cheng said.
Maybe she really had two children in her belly, and she surprised him when she thought about it.
"Are you here for something?" Sikong Yan asked.
Han Yue showed a flattering smile and rubbed beside him, "There's something, I want to go to Qingcheng." ”
Sikong Yan was stunned.
"Qingcheng?"
Han Yue cautiously looked at the look on his face, for fear of upsetting him, "I know it's a little inappropriate to go now, but Ah Chun is missing, and Xu Gong's body is afraid that he won't be able to survive this winter, I want to go and see them, if I miss this time, maybe ...... Never again......"
After Han Yue finished speaking, she couldn't help but get nervous when she saw that Sikong Yanfei was still staring at her fixedly.
Sure enough, I'm still angry, this place is not close to Qingcheng, and she is still pregnant with a child, and now it's almost time to give birth, if you go to Qingcheng, it's hard to reassure him.
She noticed that Sikong Yan's face was becoming more and more ugly, and the fingers on her knees were clenched into fists.
"I'll be more careful on the road, and it's okay to have Huacheng with me." Han Yue was still unwilling, and explained seriously, "I will be back soon." ”
Just when she thought that Sikong Yanfei would be silent for a long time, he spit out a word in a dumb voice: "Okay." ”
Han Yue was first surprised, and then he was happy, he really responded!
Her heart was full of Qingcheng's involvement, and she was happy that she didn't notice Sikong Yanfei's cheek spasms muscles after saying this word.
He seemed to be suppressing something......
