Chapter Seventy-Three: The Day of the Wedding
The next day, the princess's wedding was held as scheduled, and Feng Shuting in the palace was in a somewhat depressed mood at this time, several days had passed since Yehong left, during which Yehong never came to find him again. Feng Shuting gently stroked the neon feather coat in front of her, and couldn't help but miss a little more.
"Sister Wind! Why don't you change your clothes, the groom will come to pick up the kiss soon. ”
"Qiong Yu, it's not that you don't know that I don't like him, so I don't want to marry him!"
Mo Qiongyu saw the neon feather coat in front of Feng Shuting, wasn't it the one that Ye Hong took in the treasure house, and immediately said with a smile: "Hehe~ Sister Feng is still thinking about the little junior brother?" ”
"Not really! I think what he's doing! Being said by Mo Qiongyu, Feng Shuting's face suddenly turned red, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look directly at Mo Qiongyu.
Of course, this can't hide from Mo Qiongyu's eyes, and Mo Qiongyu is already shrewd, this kind of thing can be easily surmised, and he suddenly stepped forward and hugged Shu Ting from behind.
"Sister Feng, I went back to the academy two days ago to go through the graduation procedures, but Mo Zhi told me that the junior brother had already left the imperial capital."
Feng Shuting's mood couldn't help but drop a little lower after hearing this, and she began to feel sad. Mo Qiongyu seemed to feel Feng Shuting's mood state, and said,
"But I went to the Imperial Flying Boat docking point to check, and I didn't find any record of the junior brother leaving the imperial capital."
Feng Shuting finally recovered a little, but was disturbed by Mo Qiongyu's next words.
"However, it is not excluded that the junior brother hid his whereabouts and left the imperial capital, because the ordinary cabin of the flying boat is not registered, and there is not only one way to get out of the imperial capital."
"Qiongyu! Are you looking for a fight! You did it on purpose! Feng Shuting turned around and was about to pretend to beat Mo Qiongyu.
"Hee-hee~ Sister Feng, your heart is upset! Bear two faces under one hood! ”
After saying that, Mo Qiongyu hurriedly ran, Feng Shuting caught up and was about to beat Mo Qiongyu, the two chased and fought in the room for a while, Feng Shuting's mood was also inexplicably better, relaxed, and no longer frowned.
The two were tired of playing and idle, Mo Qiongyu said to Feng Shuting: "Sister Feng! I can't help you escape, but if you marry in the future and are wronged, you can come to me, and I will definitely help you beat up that second son. ”
"I trust him, he will definitely not let me marry him! I'll just wait for him to pick me up. Feng Shuting said firmly.
"But soon, the second son of the middle school is going to come to pick up the kiss, can the little junior brother still snatch the kiss in public? But it's so romantic to think about! Mo Qiongyu became a nymphomaniac for a while and immediately returned to normal, and said,
"But junior brother shouldn't do this, he's not such an impulsive person, if he does such a stupid thing, then I would have overestimated junior brother before, unless he has the strength to provoke the entire Tianfeng Empire."
Feng Shuting and Mo Qiongyu waited in the room like this, and they waited until noon, and they didn't see a maid come over to dress up or urge Feng Shuting.
"It's noon, something is wrong! Sister Feng, I'll go out and see what's going on. ”
Mo Qiongyu went out to inquire for a while, and then understood what was going on, and then hurriedly ran back to Feng Shuting's room,
"Sister Wind! You know what I heard? Zhong Shaoqing turned out to be gone, and the entire Zhong Mansion was looking for someone in the imperial capital, and even His Majesty was alarmed, and sent many guards to look for it throughout the city.
This Zhong Shaoqing disappeared suddenly, Sister Feng, do you think it will have something to do with the little junior brother! ”
In the morning, the maid of Zhongfu was ready to dress up for Zhong Shaoqing, but found that there was no one in the room, so she went to inform Zhong Hong, Zhong Hong thought that it was just Zhong Shaoqing hiding and fearing marriage, so he began to sense Zhong Shaoqing's location,
But I didn't expect to find Zhong Shaoqing in the Zhong Mansion several times, and interrogated a group of subordinates, but no one knew Zhong Shaoqing's whereabouts, Zhong Hong knew that Zhong Shaoqing must have sneaked out again, so he sent someone out of the house to find the place where Zhong Shaoqing often went in the city.
"What! Didn't find me! Then keep looking for me! Ask his fox friends! Turn the entire imperial capital over and find it for me! ”
Soon the news of Zhong Shaoqing's disappearance in Zhongfu spread throughout the imperial capital, and Emperor Tianfeng was furious.
"Zhong Hong, what are you going to do! On the day of the wedding, the groom disappeared! When I'm a royal family, it's easy to bully! Come! Follow me to see Zhongfu and ask for an explanation! ”
Zhong Mansion has now become a pot of porridge up and down, and Emperor Tianfeng came to ask for guilt at this time, Zhong Hong was suddenly furious,
"Your Majesty! It's not that I don't give you face, it's that I really can't find Xiao'er, and I've already sent someone to look for it all morning! ”
"How can a big living person disappear out of thin air, you Zhong Hong tease me! I've already wronged my daughter to marry your youngest son, and you still give me this show! "Emperor Tianfeng is also furious.
At this moment, a subordinate rushed in in a hurry,
"Sir! Master! I've found the news of the little master! ”
"Tell me quickly! Where's that bastard! Zhong Hong glared angrily, and asked, the subordinate who picked it up and came in.
"Zhao Ji of the Zhao Mansion said that he was in the ...... last night I saw the little master in Baihualou. The more the subordinate spoke, the quieter he became, for fear that Zhong Hong would lose his temper again.
The Heavenly Wind Emperor was furious, "Zhong Hong! What a good son you raised! On the eve of the wedding, I went to that kind of place to hang out! Are you despising the majesty of my royal family? It doesn't matter if you don't get married! ”
"Your Majesty! The most important thing now is to find my son, and we will discuss other things later! ”
Emperor Tianfeng snorted coldly, "I will send someone to help you find your son together, but we have to renegotiate this marriage contract!" ”
After saying that, Emperor Tianfeng brushed his sleeves away, and Zhong Hong hurriedly led people to Baihualou.
"What! You say I'm gone! I don't know where it is! ”
"Master Zhong! I really don't know where Mr. Zhong went! He did come to me last night, but he left at some point! We don't know! An old bustard in Baihualou knelt down and pleaded.
"I don't know anything! What do you want? Die! Zhong Hong was furious, and he was about to kill everyone who knelt on the ground in front of him and begged for mercy.
At this time, Zhong Shaotian on the side hurriedly came out to stop him: "Dad! We can't kill them yet, and this is the only clue before we find Shaoqing. ”
"Yes! Master Zhong, please don't kill me! We will definitely cooperate with you to find Mr. Zhong! The old bustard hurriedly kowtowed and begged.
Zhong Shaotian continued: "Dad, you take a rest by the side first, and then leave it to me." ”
Zhong Hong is still very satisfied with Zhong Shaotian, Zhong Shaotian is also his most proud son, both his cultivation talent and his mind are ten thousand times stronger than Zhong Shaoqing, and he is very relieved to hand over the matter to Zhong Shaotian.
"Who served Shaoqing last night?" Zhong Shaotian asked the women kneeling on the ground sharply.
"Back to ...... If you go back to Gongzi, it's Xiaohuan. One of the prostitutes said in a trembling voice.
"Who's Xiaohuan! Come out and talk back! ”
"Childe, Xiaohuan is also gone."
"Did the two of them disappear at the same time?"
"No...... I don't know. ”
"Take me to the room where the two of them were!" Zhong Shaotian said again.
Zhong Shaotian came to the room and scanned it and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he asked the prostitute who led the way next to him,
"Are you sure it's this one!"
"Back to Gongzi, it is indeed this room, and Xiao Gongzi Zhong has never changed the room since he came."
Zhong Shaotian carefully inspected all parts of the room, and found nothing unusual, so he asked the old man who followed him on the side,
"Old Qing, have you noticed?"
Qing Lao paused and replied, "Young Master, the fire element fluctuations in this room are relatively strong, and it is completely inconsistent with the surrounding environment, as if a fire attribute cultivator has manipulated the fire element here, and I found ash residues in the corner of the wall, I suspect that the young master may have been killed."
It's just that there's no other trace here, and I don't dare to make assumptions. If it is true that the little young master was secretly killed, then I can only say that this murderer is so cunning that he has completely achieved the point of destroying the corpse without leaving a trace, and this meticulous thinking is not something that ordinary people can have. ”
Zhong Shaotian asked the prostitute on the side,
"Did you notice anything unusual last night?"
"Hui Gongzi, I didn't find anything unusual last night, and the sisters are all picking up customers normally."
Zhong Shaotian suddenly frowned, this was completely nowhere to be found, and there was no way to find it. Just when Zhong Shaotian was about to order the killing of all the prostitutes, a prostitute resignedly said that two masked guests had come to Baihualou last night.
"Guests in masks? Do you often have such guests? Zhong Shaotian asked.
"Young Master Zhong, it's not unusual for us to have such guests every once in a while." The old bustard said.
Zhong Shaotian didn't want to give up any clues, and felt that the two people wearing masks were very suspicious, so he asked a lot of questions about these two people, and went to the room where the two had stayed to check carefully, but they didn't get any useful information, just two ordinary prostitutes,
"You said it was the last two of you who were serving, did you notice anything unusual before they left?"
"It's not abnormal, we fell asleep because we drank too much, and the result was that the two guests were dissatisfied, otherwise we could have made more money that night!" One of the prostitutes said with some remorse.
Zhong Shaotian asked, "You said you two fell asleep for a while!" Sleepy at the same time? Woke up at the same time? ”
One of the prostitutes took a closer look and said, "It seems to be true! It's a little strange when you think about it, I don't usually drink so much, and I got drunk last night without much drinking. ”
The old man next to him said: "Young master, it seems that there is no doubt that those two people are, but they have never seen the appearance of the two of them, how is this good." ”
Zhong Shaotian was also very helpless, this was the second time he had encountered this kind of thing that he had no choice about, he knew that this person was his opponent, but he was helpless.
Suddenly, Zhong Shaotian had a flash of inspiration, as if he had figured out something, and hurriedly ran to Zhong Hong to reply,
"Dad, Shaoqing may have been killed."
"What!"
Zhong Hong suddenly spat blood from his mouth, angry and angry. Zhong Shaotian hurriedly appeased Zhong Hong and told Zhong Hong the whole thing.
"Check it out! Catch those two murderers no matter what! I'm going to bury him with his whole family! ”
"Dad, you get rid of your anger first! I've speculated on some clues, but this is just my speculation, and I don't have any evidence, so I'll tell you when I find the exact evidence. ”
At this time, Yehong and several people had already left the imperial capital, and for the sake of prudence, Yehong took Qin Feng and the four of them to the imperial flying boat docking point early in the morning to take a flying boat that left the imperial capital, for fear of being found out, Yehong only bought a ticket for the ordinary cabin,
And the flying boat was not going to Heavenly Sword City, but a random trip to a relatively large surrounding city, Yehong decided to take the flying boat back to Heavenly Sword City after arriving at that big city,
Although there will be some delays on the way, fortunately, it is safe, even if Zhong Shaoqing's death is found on him in the end, no one will be able to find him.
