Chapter 555: The Search for Someone Begins
Early the next morning, Luo Lan and Leng Yu had just gotten up, and Ah Cai came to call the door.
"Lord, princess, no, the lady and the second lady are gone."
This sentence made Luo Lan's heart instantly rise to her throat, she hurriedly ran to the door, opened the door, and asked eagerly:
"What's wrong? Mother, where did they go? ”
Ah Cai shook his head vigorously,
"I don't know, when the girl in the west wing went to bring them face wash in the morning, they were nowhere to be seen."
Hearing this, Luo Lan rushed out of the door and went straight to the west wing, and Leng Yu also followed when he saw this.
When they saw the empty room, they were a little flustered, and at this time, Leng Yu glanced at the letter on the table, and hurriedly took it and held it up in front of Luo Lan.
"Lady, look."
Luo Lan took the letter and opened it anxiously, and the content on it suddenly made her even more flustered.
"Dad, sister, brother-in-law, my mother and I are gone, we know that Daning Kingdom can't tolerate us after all, we don't want to cause trouble to you, don't come to me us, don't blame us for saying goodbye, there will be a chance in the future, I hope we can see each other again, Xena."
Luo Lan looked at the letter in her hand, and wept lightly, the moment the tears wet the letterhead, Leng Yu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her shoulders and comforted softly:
"Don't worry, they left last night, they shouldn't have gone too far, I'll order someone to find them now."
"No, I'm going to find it myself."
Leaving this sentence, she hurriedly said to Ah Hong:
"Quick, get me a horse."
Leng Yu also instructed Xiao Lingzi who was standing at the door:
"Call Xiao Shuangzi, Xiao Ningzi, Zhang Yuan, and go in the direction of Chu to find it."
"My subordinates understand."
After Xiao Lingzi clasped his fists and saluted, he quickly turned around and left.
Luo Lan and Leng Yu also couldn't wait to walk towards the gate of Yuwang Mansion together.
As soon as they left on the front foot, Leng Ming came on the back foot, and as soon as he entered the mansion, he heard the news that Xena and Xiaoling had left, and he suddenly felt like he was in turmoil.
No, Xena can't go, he can't let her go.
Last night he thought all night, he couldn't live without Xena, so he planned to come and confess to Xena today, he wanted to tell Xena that she would not marry in this life.
But as soon as he stepped into the gate of Yuwang's Mansion, he heard the news that Xena had left Yuwang's Mansion overnight, which instantly made him feel like his head was about to explode.
He immediately ran out of the palace of King Yu, mounted his horse, and went straight to the city gate.
At this time, Xena and Xiaoling were walking on the official road north of the capital, and Xiaoling asked puzzledly:
"Nana, didn't you say that we should go back to Chu State? Why keep going north? Isn't the state of Chu in the south? ”
Xena lifted her sleeve to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and then explained:
"Dad and sister will definitely chase us in the direction of Chu when they find out, let's walk, they ride horses, it is easy to catch up, I think let's go in the opposite direction, and then take a detour back to Chu State, so that they can't find us."
Xiao Ling nodded thoughtfully,
"It makes sense for you to say that, I'm a little tired after a night's journey, let's take a break and drink saliva."
"Cheng, I'm a little hungry too, let's eat something and then hurry."
As they spoke, they both sat down on a big stone on the side of the official road, took out the bread and water in their baggage, and ate them.
"Mother, we came out in a hurry last night, and we didn't have time to prepare the horses, so I'll buy a carriage when we get to the front, so you won't be so tired."
"Well, it's okay, otherwise we will go to the Chu State to get the Year of the Monkey."
"Mother, I'm sorry for letting you suffer with me."
"Don't say that, I'm the one who has caused you, if it weren't for me, how could you have been taken to the Chu State."
As she spoke, Xiao Ling felt the change in the weather, she looked up at the sky, and said worriedly: "On this day, why does it seem to be raining?" ”
Xena also looked up, and saw that the sky that had been cloudless just now was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and she looked around a little anxiously.
"Mother, let's go quickly, this rain is coming soon."
Xena shoved a piece of bread into her mouth and continued as she chewed:
"There is no village in front of here, there is no store in the back, it is not easy to find an inn in the city, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first."
Before she said this, it really rained in the sky, and she hurriedly pulled Xiaoling and ran forward quickly,
"Mother, run, let's go to the foot of the mountain in front of us to take shelter from the rain."
Under her pull, Xiao Ling ran forward with her deep and shallow.
The raindrops quickly wet their clothes, but fortunately, they ran to a cave.
"Mother, let's take shelter from the rain here first, and then leave when the rain is light."
"That's the only way, in my opinion, this rain will not stop today, and the sky is full of dark clouds."
"Then when to stop and when to go, anyway, we're not in a hurry."
As she spoke, she opened the burden in her hand, took out the clothes inside, and muttered as she shook off the water on it,
"Mother, the clothes are wet, take them out and dry them!"
Xiao Ling sighed as she sat down on the haystack beside her,
"Alas, it's not easy to go out, it's thousands of miles away from Chu State, how can our mother and daughter go back?"
"Mother, didn't I just say it! When we get to the city in front, let's buy a carriage, I'll drive the horses, and you can take the carriage, so that we can get to Chu soon." ”
At the mention of the carriage, Xiao Ling suddenly held her breath and listened carefully,
"Nana, listen, is there a sound of horses' hooves coming this way?"
Xena's brow instantly twisted into a knot, and then nodded,
"There's the sound of horses' hooves, probably someone passing by!"
"Could it be your sisters?"
"No, they will chase south, let's go north, not in one direction."
"Oh, that's the people passing by......"
Before she could do this, someone walked in at the entrance of the cave wearing a robe, and Xiaoling and Xena looked at the entrance of the cave together.
At the same time, the person who entered the cave also looked inside, and when he saw Xena and Xiaoling, he was stunned in place.
His eyes made Xena a a little stunned, she blinked her eyes a few times, she felt that she must be dazzled, how could she meet him here?
But before her thoughts calmed down, the people at the entrance of the cave walked towards her step by step.
"Xena, is it really you?"
This......
Xena got up from the ground, looked at the visitor, and when she saw him take off the felt hat on his head and take off the coat on his body, she immediately covered her eyes with tears in her eyes.
The person in front of her was Leng Ming, she couldn't believe it, how could they meet here?
Xiao Ling also looked at Leng Ming with puzzled eyes,
"Lord Ming, why are you here?"
Leng Ming stared straight at Xina with a pair of handsome eyes, and said word by word:
"I came to look for you, I didn't expect to meet here."
"Looking for us?"
Xena looked at him puzzled,
"How do you know we're going north?"
