After knowing the background of the Dusk Society, as well as the strength.

Sima Liang can also understand why Xiao Shunzi didn't guard against the other party.

But the other party made a big deal twice in a row. Still let him mind a little.

"Uncle Clan, you go out first. I immediately got up and came out. ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

After Uncle Clan leaves.

Sima Liang propped himself up and sat on the edge of the bed. Then, with the help of Xiao Yao, he began to put on clothes.

Although he was sitting, he was condescending in the face of Xiao Shunzi who was kneeling on the ground.

The angle of looking down reminded Sima Liang of the past.

After a little distraction, he looked at Xiao Junzi again.

"Little Shunzi, I said it. You don't have to call yourself a slave before me. Not to mention how bad you are, but with your current attitude, I am disappointed. ”

"Your Highness, I was wrong. I ......"

"Needless to say. Look up and look at me. What I ask, you answer. ”

Sima Liang's unwavering eyes met Xiao Shunzi's flustered gaze.

"Missing on board?"

"Little Third Son and Young Master Tang are also missing?"

"No blood, corpses?"

Xiao Shunzi was prostrate on the ground, not daring to raise his head at all.

He replied with a trembling voice.

"When the ship was about to arrive in Pingnan, it was found missing."

After discovering it, the remaining soldiers searched the entire ship. Aside from a few dead soldiers, no other anomalous signs were found. ”

"Now the ship is docked in Pingnan, guarded by the people of the Yamen, and at the same time, people have been looking for it along the coast."

"However, for the time being, I have not found any trace of the little county lord, the young master Tang and the little third son."

Sima Liang, who was wearing a coat, struggled to get up with Xiao Yao's support.

After standing, the fainting sensation spreads to the top of the head. Nearly knocked him to the ground.

Xiao Shunzi saw the situation and helped to support.

When Sima Liang sat down again, the other party knelt on the ground again.

He looked at Xiao Shunzi and sighed.

"You get up, right and wrong, I don't have time to investigate it for the time being. I want you to do what is in front of you. To live to see people, to die to see corpses. ”

"Look at the investigation yourself. Of course, I'll figure it out too. Remember to see people in life, and see corpses in death. Don't get into any more trouble, my patience with you is not limitless. ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hearing the emotionless words, Xiao Shunzi's heart was like a knife.

Although he didn't punish himself, he knew that Sima Liang was disappointed in him.

However, Junko is not going to explain anything.

He knows that whatever he says is empty talk, and if he doesn't do it well, he doesn't do it well.

"No matter what the cost, I will make the person who did it pay the price."

Leaving the small courtyard where Sima Liang was, Xiao Shunzi's face was gloomy and his fists were clenched.

His eyes were full of rage, and he looked at the sky viciously.

Crunch.

The door to the west wing was pulled open.

Sima Liang walked out of it with Xiao Yao's support.

He walked very slowly, and his steps were unsteady.

"Your Highness, it's really hard." Uncle Clan looked at Sima Liang with admiration.

"It's just a minor illness."

"Now that such a big thing has happened, I am lying in bed again, it is too unusual."

Sima Liang's unwavering words, combined with the cold eyes and slightly sickly countenance.

It makes him look strangely gloomy.

Seeing the other party like this, the clan uncle's eyes were a little trance-like.

"Like, you're really like your father. Not only his appearance, but also his demeanor and eyebrows, are his shadows. ”

Sima Liang smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.

He slowly walked over to the stone table and sat down.

"Uncle Clan, do you think they have a chance to live?"

"It's hard to say. If the other party really has murderous intentions, he can do it on the ship. There's no need to do anything else. ”

Sima Liang kneaded the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes in contemplation.

"What is the purpose?"

"Where else will they go?"

The only good news now is that the three missing people may still be alive.

The bad news is that apart from knowing who is behind the scenes, there are no clues left that can be used.

"Your Highness, the Sheng family may be able to come in handy." Uncle Clan suggested.

"The Sheng family?"

"Although King Sheng changed his face and came to Yancheng, he should still have some way out of what happened on the river. Maybe it can help you. ”

Sima Liang thought for a moment.

"More clan uncles suggested, then I will go to the Sheng family first. Xiao Yao, you go and ask someone to prepare a carriage. ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Yao obediently walked out of the courtyard.

After she left, Sima Liang looked at Uncle Clan again.

"Do you have any plans for your words?"

Uncle Clan sighed.

"As soon as this incident came out, I couldn't stay here. I have told you the Lord what you have asked in your letter. The rest of the details are not very important. If you really want to know everything about the year, wait for the New Year. Let's talk about it again during the banquet in the palace. ”

Sima Liang nodded in understanding. Then bow your hands.

"Then I'm going to bid farewell to my uncle here. By the way, I would like to excuse you, and I would like to convey the news that Hu Yanxuan is lost. ”

The clan uncle returned the salute.

"I will convey the news, and I will also pay attention to the situation along the road. If there is anything found, we will notify you as soon as possible. ”

After saying this, the clan uncle got up and left the small courtyard.

After he left, Mu Yu and Bao'er came out one after another.

"Xianggong, something happened to the little county lord?"

"Your Highness, what's going on?"

Looking at the two girls in a panic, Sima Liang didn't plan to hide anything.

He sighed and shook his head.

"It's not just the little county lord. Lin'er and the third son are also gone. Now life and death are unknown, and his whereabouts are unknown. ”

"What? Lin'er is gone. ”

Hearing that her brother was gone, Bao'er lost her face.

"How could he, a non-threatening gentleman, disappear? This made Dad know how he could be stimulated. ”

"I knew that I didn't agree with him to send the little county lord."

Bao'er blamed herself. This morning was supposed to be Tang Chong and Xiao Sanzi's go. But Tang Lin'er insisted on sending it to the little county lord.

She knew from Guo'er that Lin'er had some thoughts.

Although Bao'er didn't realize that Lin'er had a play, as a sister, she still let the other party send her last ride. It's kind of let Lin'er think about it. If you don't think about it, this kind of thing happened.

Seeing that she has no master, Sima Liang doesn't know how to comfort her.

After all, he doesn't know where the situation is going now, and what the outcome will be.

Mu Yu saw Sima Liang's embarrassment.

She hugged Bao'er and carefully comforted her.

"Lin'er will be fine, and the little county lord and the little third son will also be fine."

"Xianggong is already working hard to solve it, let's just wait at home."

"But will it really be okay?"

"It's going to be fine."

……

After temporarily appeasing Bao'er, Mu Yu secretly glanced at her.

Sima Liang, who understood the meaning, nodded.

"The carriage should be ready, and I should go. Xiaohe, you can help me. ”

As soon as he took two steps, Sima Liang was stopped by Mu Yu.

"Xianggong, you must pay attention to your body and don't force yourself."

"At the same time, you don't have to worry about your family. We can't help much, but we won't mess with you either. ”

Mu Yu's thoughtfulness made Sima Liang feel a warm current that surged into his heart.

Maybe it's psychological, he feels like he's getting better.

"Got it, I'll try to go and come back as early as possible."

Sima Liang squeezed out a smile and said goodbye to a few people.

With Xiaohe's support, he slowly left the yard and got into the carriage.

At the same time, next to a certain section of the river.

Tang Lin'er, who was soaked and covered in mud, stumbled along.

His face was pale, and there were wounds at the corners of his mouth.

Tang Lin'er's hand pressing on his stomach was still full of blood.

Probably because of blood loss, he looked like he was going to faint at any moment.

"Anyone?"

"Help."

……

Tang Lin'er staggered for a while. Then he fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Zhao Yu, who finished checking Sima Liang's abduction case, frowned.

"Just now, there seems to be someone on the shore calling for help, stop and take a look."

After ordering the boatman to stop, Zhao Yu went ashore and searched for a while.

In the end, he found Tang Lin'er.

"Here, someone was injured. Come over and help. ”

When the others arrived, Zhao Yu observed Tang Lin'er's clothes.

He didn't know Tang Lin'er, but he recognized the fabric of the clothes.

"Is it a nobleman?"

Mixing in officialdom and knowing people by clothes is a basic skill. And the clothes worn by Tang Lin'er are made of imperial brocade exclusively for the royal family.

Very recognizable, just by this clothing. Although it is not necessarily a member of the royal family, it is more or less related.

Knowing the relationship, Zhao Yu was a little worried.

"One wave has not settled, and one wave has risen. It's still near Zhongdu, it can't be a group of people who did it. ”

"Will there be anyone else? This kind of person will not come out alone. I don't know if there are homicides nearby. ”

"Do you want to track it down? But if you don't do it, you'll wade into troubled waters. ”

Zhao Yu is a person who cherishes feathers, and he doesn't like to do risky things.

Only with enough benefits can he do something bold.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yu decided not to pursue it for the time being. It is planned to make plans after ascertaining the identity of the injured person and the situation.

However, to avoid missing the opportunity, he decided not to return to Zhongdu tonight. Instead, he chose the nearby Pingnan to treat the injured.

"I hope you wake up sooner and tell me something."

Zhao Yu took a look at the forest next to him. Then, without looking back, he got on the boat.

When he got on the boat, Hu Yanxuan and Xiao Sanzi were pushed off the boat.

"Little county lord, you must inform Your Highness first. Otherwise, he would have been worried. …… Then you don't have to worry about me, go to the yamen to report your identity first. Let the people of the court protect the ...... first"

Before he could finish speaking, the little third son fell to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing that he was scarred and his clothes were stained with blood, he must have been tortured a lot.

"Little third son? Wake up, don't scare me. ”

Hu Yanxuan looked flustered and at a loss.
