Chapter 996: Famine, Natural Disasters 153
Mingyi pursed her lips and was displeased, and her mother knew that she was helping her father.
It was rare to see his sister deflated, Cheng Mingli chuckled out loud, and Mingyi had to stare at him to restrain himself.
"Okay, you two follow along, you can't run around."
"Got it." Mingyi was unhappy, what was the point of going with her father, the two of them showed affection, and they only had to eat dog food as children.
Cheng Mingli doesn't care, it doesn't matter if he walks with his sister, or with his parents, he wants to watch his sister anyway.
What they didn't know was that as soon as they entered the city gate, Zhou Ting got the news.
The person who came to report was Zhou Ting's secret guard, the dark one.
"Master."
In the study of King Zhou's mansion, as soon as he returned to Cheng's house, he learned that Mingyi and they had gone to Fucheng, and hurried over; I didn't catch up with them, I didn't see anyone along the way, and I thought I had entered the city.
"How did you get back?" Zhou Ting was puzzled and asked, "Could it be that Cheng Xiaoniang has something to do?" ”
Secretly shook his head, and nodded again, "Master, Cheng Xiaoniang followed her father and mother to Fucheng." ”
Zhou Ting frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you on an errand." ”
"The lord is angry, and his subordinates are guilty." Lisuo, who knelt down in the dark, Zhou Ting saw the way: "Mingyi, have they entered the city?" ”
"It should be in."
"What this son wants is accurate, what does it mean that he should enter?" Anger came to his face, and Zhou Ting was depressed.
Darkly, his heart jumped slightly, "If you go back to your master, you haven't seen Cheng Xiaoniang's family on the way, so I think I came to Fucheng before my subordinates." ”
"That's it, go and punish the thirty military sticks, you don't have to follow Cheng Xiaoniang first; Send the dark fifteen, and you will go to Kyoto after you are healed. ”
"Yes."
This punishment is already very light, if he goes back to the dark guard camp to retrain, he will have to crawl and roll in the pile of dead people again, and a team of 100 people can only stand in front of the master until the end.
Dark Yi retreated, he had lost the qualification to continue to protect Cheng Xiaoniang.
Before he went down to receive the punishment, he summoned the Dark Fifteen and informed him of what had happened; told him to take good care of Mrs. Cheng and try to stay on top of each other.
"Fifteen, I'm going to get the punishment, Cheng Xiaoniang is a person who is cherished by the prince, don't ignore it."
Dark Fifteen is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, dressed in black; The hair is tied into a crown, however, the appearance is mediocre, and the temperament is very casual, which cannot be found in the crowd.
"Big brother Dark, does the prince really like that little lady?"
"Don't talk about the prince, I should go." Dark One took two steps and stopped as he passed her, a soft hum in response to his question.
Dark Fifteen's eyes flickered for a moment, then regained their composure; As if the shrewdness that had just flashed away was not him, he turned around and walked outside Zhou Ting's study without any waves about the dark one's departure.
"Lord Shizi, my subordinates are here to receive orders."
"Enter."
Zhou Ting opened his mouth, put down the pen he was signing, and covered the paper on the paper.
Dark fifteen walked into the study, lowered his eyes and knelt on one knee, respectfully, "My subordinates see the prince of the world, and the prince of the world is safe." ”
"Do you know what you're here for?"
"Brother Dark One told his subordinates that the task of his subordinates is to protect Cheng Xiaoniang."
Zhou Ting's momentum was undisguised, and he was satisfied, "Now that you know, you won't say much; They came to Fucheng, you go to Fucheng to find them, and secretly protect them after you return from the summons. ”
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
Dark Fifteen honestly exited the study, cold sweat still breaking out on his back.
When did the prince's coercion become so powerful?
I still remember seeing Shi Ziye two years ago, it was a sick and weak person, except for scheming, he didn't have such momentum.
He had just entered King Zhou's secret guard camp two years ago, and had met the prince of King Zhou when he was on a mission; I never thought that two years later, King Zhou was defeated and the prince ascended the throne.
It's really life-changing!
Dark Fifteen changed into ordinary subordinate clothes, and ran to the dark one who was about to be punished to ask Mingyi's preferences.
"Wait, don't execute yet."
"Who are you?" It was the guards in the palace who carried out the execution, and when they saw the dark fifteen, they looked confused.
The dark guards rarely appear in front of people, and at present, only the dark one and dark five have come out, and the other dark guards are hidden in the dark.
Dark One and Dark Five appeared in front of people because the prince of Zhou needed them to do things.
Dark Yi leaned on the Xing bench and waved his hand, "Don't worry, this is the fifteenth beside the prince." ”
"It turned out to be the son of the prince, and it was rude."
"Two, I'm here to find Brother Dark One for something, just ask a few words and leave, I won't delay your business." Dark Fifteen said with a smile.
A secret guard smiled at them, looking at the honest and honest appearance, they can't really treat people as honest people!
"The Dark Fifteen is serious." Two guards stepped aside with their rods in hand.
Darkly changed from lying on his stomach to sitting, "Something to ask." ”
"Big brother Dark, the little brother hasn't seen the little lady, the prince ordered me to find the little lady; I don't know where I'm going to find someone, I don't know what it looks like, it's not for me to look for a needle in a haystack, guess blindly! Dark Fifteen leaned into his ear and muttered, "Does Big Brother Dark Know where that little lady is?" ”
Darkly glanced at him, this man was too shrewd.
"Cheng Xiaoniang should be in the night market, you go to the night market to find someone; They are a family of four, the elder is a boy and a girl as parents, the younger one is a boy and a girl, the man is in his early tens, the woman is seven or eight years old, and the little lady has practiced martial arts. ”
"That's all?"
Undoubtedly, it is still a needle in a haystack.
Dark One simply lay back on the torture bench, "Hurry up and find it, if something happens to Cheng Xiaoniang, you can't run away, be careful that the prince picks your skin." ”
"I know, I know, I'll go, thank you for the clue from Big Brother Dark."
Dark Fifteen ran fast.
The dark one is obediently punished.
After running out of the palace, Dark Fifteen went straight to the night market, and arrived at the night market, because the sky was not dark; There are not too many people who come to the night market, and Dark Fifteen walks to the dark place and jumps onto the roof, looking for people from top to bottom.
After looking for three streets, I finally found a family of four who were suspected to be the little ladies of the Cheng family.
A man and a woman are the elders, in their thirties; A man and a woman didn't seem to be the right age, and the dark fifteen scratched his head, quietly followed the four of them, and heard someone call them Mr. Diao, a master.
He's looking for the wrong person.
Dark Fifteen sighed and continued to jump on the roof to look for people, one by one on the street.
I found the wrong four families to see a family sitting in front of the barbecue stall, the man was twenty-eight or nine, the woman was twenty-five or six, the two younger ones were in their early teens, and the other was seven or eight years old, and the woman was wearing a familiar pearl bead flower on her head.
That pearl is very rare in the northwest, look at that style, it is clear that it came from the princess.
Get.
It should be this family.
Without a trace, he walked over to the table next to them and sat down, calling out to the boss, "Here's a roasted whole lamb, hurry up." ”
"Okay, I'll serve it to you at the table next to you." The boss is crisp and enthusiastic, grinning with big white teeth.
Mingyi turned her head to look at the boss expectantly; I saw the boss turn around and bring the prepared roast whole lamb and the knife to cut the meat.
"Slow the guests, grill the steak for a while, and come later."
"Thank you, boss." Mingyi smiled and thanked her, and when she turned around, she felt that someone was looking at her, even her family; Glancing at their parents, they didn't realize.
