Chapter 264

On the rice paper, half a burly beast appeared, with long and curved fangs exposed, wolf ears, but the lower body was missing, and some outlines were not clear.

Bai Xianyu made up his mind to draw two seal marks clearly, so he asked the craftsman to polish a seal according to these marks.

Take it with you, so that you don't have to bring the painting to ask someone to identify it.

After the traces appeared on the rice paper, Princess Jing'an fell into deep thought, "What kind of beast is this?"

Bai Xianyu shook his head, "This only takes up one-sixth of the entire seal, but I found quite a few similar ones."

"His Royal Highness, have you ever seen it?"

"If you ask like this, is it possible that I should have seen it?"

"I saw it in the hands of a concubine when I was very young, but I don't have any impression, but she is from the harem, so I want to ask the eldest princess if you have seen it."

Princess Jing'an paused for a few seconds, thoughtfully, "Is it the private seal of the imperial concubine?"

She picked up the rice paper, evened it out, said calmly, "Sit down, don't stand."

Bai Xianyu took the opportunity to sit down.

She began to peel the melon seeds and eat them. The melon seed shells were almost piled up into a hill, and Princess Jing'an put it down. She glanced at the thing in the girl's hand and asked, "Is this seal of yours a replica?"

"Yes, because the place where the original seal trace is, it is not convenient to carry it with you."

Princess Jing'an shook her head, "There are too few traces, besides, I have never seen the private seals of a few concubines, and I have not made good friends with those concubines of my brother."

"Which talented concubines are there in the palace? They must use their private seals." Bai Xianyu began to hypothesize, "Such a mighty design, maybe it is the daughter of a general?"

Several candidates flashed in Princess Jing'an's mind, she frowned, and said: "Well, anyway, I have nothing to do, I will enter the palace tomorrow, and I will show you one by one."

Bai Xianyu opened her eyes wide in surprise, she and Luzhu exchanged a glance, "Your Highness has worked hard, in fact, as long as Your Highness tells me about these people, I can find them myself."

Princess Jing'an snorted, "What's the hard work, just walk from palace to palace and walk along the imperial city, it's just a walk."

As she said that, she ordered Guoying, "You go and pass an order to me now. I will enter the palace tomorrow morning and ask all the concubines to bring all their private seals and wait for me at the gate of the palace. Who will waste my time? , I want someone who looks good."

Bai Xianyu: "..."

Luzhu: "..." So simple and rude.

Guo Ying took it for granted, "Yes, Your Highness."

After finishing her instructions, Princess Jing'an looked at Bai Xianyu, and said in a rather smug tone, "Is this all right?"

Bai Xianyu nodded, showing a sincere smile, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Your family is welcome." Princess Jing'an said indifferently: "How do you live here? What are you not used to?"

"I'm used to it."

"Well, if you want anything, just send someone to tell Guoying."

"it is good."

Walking out of Liuxiang Hall, Luzhu patted her chest with lingering fear, "Miss, I can't believe that the Eldest Princess actually helped you."

Bai Li was also surprised, "She didn't even ask Miss why you are looking for this seal."

"Yes! When the Eldest Princess called Aunt Guoying just now, her eyes were cold. According to previous rumors, the servant thought that the Eldest Princess had suddenly changed her mind."

Bai Xianyu smiled, "I came here to know that she will help me, but I plan to let Concubine Xu secretly check according to the list given by the eldest princess, if there is none, then check all of them, but it takes more It will take some time, after all, looking for a private seal for no reason is a bit suspicious, but the eldest princess will choose to help me find it, which makes me a little surprised, but it saves a lot of trouble."

"Why did she help you?"

"Because I am, in a sense, a half of the Hou family." Princess Jing'an was especially defensive.

Luzhu hesitated and said, "Wouldn't it be suspicious for His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess to look for it with such a great fanfare?"

Bai Li smiled and shook his head: "Isn't this in line with the eldest princess's style? If she wants to read someone's private seal, she has to hide from others' eyes, which is suspicious. After all, the eldest princess has done a lot of things for a while. It’s nothing more than one more thing that arises.”

Bai Xianyu nodded in agreement.

"Luzhu, ask someone to prepare a carriage, let's go out and talk to Aunt Guoying."

Lu Zhu hummed, and asked with a smile, "Miss, where are we going?"

Thinking of Xie Xingyun's words, Bai Xianyu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Go and buy some materials for making robes."

"Miss, do you want to make a robe?" Luzhu stared at Yuanyuan's eyes in surprise.

"correct."

"Miss, when did you learn to make robes?"

"I haven't learned it, but it shouldn't be difficult to learn it from the book."

Lu Zhu put away her jaw that had been pressed down in surprise, said "oh oh", and said with a smile, "So that's the case. I'm still wondering when Miss learned such a craft."

Bai Xianyu hooked her lips, the robe that Xie Xingyun wanted was not finished by her.

It took several years for that robe, from the time she started to learn counting, to the time she destroyed it, about four years.

People are always nostalgic for what has passed away, just like that purple and gold robe.

Thinking about it now, she finds it a little funny.

At that time, after three reminders and four requests, Xie Xingyun agreed to let her do it.Now she finds it troublesome, but Xie Xingyun insists on it.

But this time she did it for herself.

Several people came to the street, and it didn't take long to find the materials they needed.

Bai Xianyu looked at the familiar fabric and was about to leave when Lu Zhu called out in surprise, "Miss, is that Mr. Gu Yu!"

Bai Xianyu looked over, and sure enough, he saw Gu Yu.

Unlike that day, Gu Yu looked much more respectable, but for some reason, her legs were bandaged, her chest was bulging, and white could be vaguely seen in the gaps in her clothes.

This is hurting.

Bai Li asked strangely: "Young Master Gu was beaten? Who else in this capital can beat him?"

Bai Xianyu thought to himself, there are not many people at all.

Although Gu Yuming didn't have much contact with Xie Xingyun on the surface, those who are interested in observing should also know the relationship between the two of them.

Maybe it was Xie Xingyun who hit him.

When he saw Gu Yu that day, he was particularly embarrassed, maybe he had a dispute with Xie Xingyun.

Thinking of this, Bai Xianyu thought deeply, "What are you arguing about?"

She glanced at Gu Yu, and suddenly said, "Gu Yu!"

Gu Yu was taken aback, why did he hear Bai Xianyu's voice.

"Gu Yu."

There was another sound, but this one was much quieter. Gu Yu confirmed his thoughts now, and turned his head stiffly, "Bai Xianyu."

Bai Xianyu glanced at him lightly, "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

Gu Yuxin said, just chatting, calm down, since Xie Xingyun has made a decision, he can't hold back.

"Buy some medicinal materials, the medicinal materials I brought are not enough."

"Yeah." Bai Xianyu pretended to glance at the medicine bag in his hand inadvertently, "I saw you being kidnapped that day, and I planned to rescue you, but I found that it seemed to be someone from Xie Xingyun's house... ..."

She paused for words, Gu Yu's heart stopped suddenly, and her heart was already turbulent.

She saw him being kidnapped by Xie Xingyun and taken to the mansion, and then, did she notice something?
Bai Xianyu glanced at his absent-minded and erratic expression, and felt extremely cold in his heart.

Could it be... Gu Yu came to the capital because of the fact that she was bewitched?

But Xie Xingyun stopped him.

"Who hit you for the injury on your body, I can help you avenge me if I am a friend." She said in a calm tone.

Gu Yuqiang calmed down, "It was because I accidentally fell from the mountain while gathering herbs, so I got hurt."

"Which mountain?"

Gu Yu is not familiar with the capital. Hearing Bai Xianyu's inquisition and looking at him with concern, he panicked. In fact, he is usually quite calm, but he has been guilty for too long, even though Bai Xianyu didn't No matter what question was asked, he still walked in by himself.

Gu Yuzheng was trying to find another reason to get away with it, but the girl in front of her pursed her lips in an unclear manner, her eyes were very indifferent.

He has known Bai Xianyu until now, but he has never seen Bai Xianyu show such an expression, and he was dumbfounded for a while.

But it seemed to be his illusion just now, because in the blink of an eye, Bai Xianyu's expression returned to the original, "Since it wasn't beaten by someone, remember to be careful next time when you gather medicine."

Gu Yu stared at her for a long time, then relaxed and nodded with a smile.

He probably didn't notice it, he thought.

After Bai Xianyu finished speaking, he got into the carriage beside him.

Lu Zhu also sat down, "Miss, shall we go home directly now?"

"Ah."

Bai Xianyu lifted the hem of her dress, and the tail of the skirt fell on the brocade seat.

"Miss, which mountain did you say Mr. Gu fell from? He didn't finish his sentence, and the slaves are so curious."

Luzhu was idle and bored, so she found something to talk about.

Bai Xianyu leaned lightly against the wall of the car, "The mountain in my dream."

"What mountain?"

Luzhu didn't understand.

Bai Xianyu didn't have the strength to explain anymore, when the pain hit, the uncontrollable longing followed, like a ferocious wave.

With a dull expression on her face, she calmly picked up one and swallowed it.

If there is no ghost in his heart, just say that his injury is related to Xie Xingyun, and make up a lame excuse to cover up some things in front of him.

What else can connect her, Xie Xingyun and Gu Yu together.

"Bai Li."

Bai Li slowed down the carriage, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, Miss?"

"Help me find out what happened to Gu Yu in Nanzhao, be careful, I will find a way to get the pass."

Bai Li respectfully said: "Yes."

Because of the worries of foreign enemies, Nanzhao is located on the border, and the external checkpoints are very strict. Only powerful people in Nanzhao can issue passage orders. Of course, people at the level of Emperor Wuxuan will naturally have unimpeded traffic within Dakui.

She couldn't get the pass through Xie Xingyun, but there was also a daughter-in-law of Nanzhao King in the princess' mansion.

Thinking of going to look for the eldest princess again later, Bai Xianyu paused for a moment, "Bai Li, turn a corner, let's go to Zhenbao Pavilion."
