captive skylark

Chapter 121 The girl escaped
With such unreasonable words, he spoke frankly and righteously.

Jiang Yuan looked at him with dazed eyes.

Xie Heng added fuel to the fire at the end, "My sister is not young anymore, so it's time to discuss marriage. In the future, if you marry someone else's family, do you want to take care of other irrelevant people like this?"

He lowered his eyes to see her face that was as white as paper, and left with his sleeves up.

The next day I went back to Beijing.

Fast horses and fast boats travel day and night, and it will take a few days.In the middle of the night, Xie Heng was lying on the couch where the two had cuddled together, smelling the soft pillow that seemed to still have a sweet fragrance, and when she woke up from a dream, she was all in front of her eyes.

In fact, why don't you like her?

She is almost another self, a fresh and vibrant self.

He watched her play tricks, watched her curse secretly, but tried to call him with a sweet smile on her face.

The once coquettish and timid girl who called him "Brother Xingzhi" has grown up, and has grown into a bad girl who is as gentle and gentle on the surface as he is, but jealous on the inside.

But he really loved her.

This is a treasure carefully crafted by him, every frown, smile, and every move of hers are in line with his wishes and perfectly appropriate.

No one can take her away from him.

After a few days of sailing to Shangjing, Xichi led the people to wait at the pier. When they saw Xie Heng, they all knelt down and apologized, "My lord, the girl has escaped."

In an instant, the joy in his heart turned into frost and snow and the bottomless cold pool in his eyes.

All the people were sent out, big and small city gates, boat docks, inns, and even inaccessible ruined temples in the mountains and forests.She didn't know anyone in Shangjing, but he secretly searched all the places where she could rest.

Nothing.

I also found the local ruffians who linger in the places where fireworks are in the market. Such people have the widest connections and eat them everywhere.Xie Heng gave him a large sum of gold and silver, and asked him to scatter it. It doesn't take much, as long as the person is found.

The local ruffian happily took the money down, and within a few days, the news really came.

A few days ago, someone saw a girl jumping off the moat from a distance, but she couldn't see her face clearly, but she was about the same age, about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Xie Heng listened with a serious expression, "It's not her."

He understood her temperament, if she wanted to die, she would have jumped off the Huaihe River when Cong Yangxia forced her back.

Just for fear of missing out.

In November and February, the surface of the moat was covered with thick ice. It was necessary to call a boatman who knew the water to come and chip away the ice bit by bit.

Such a big movement naturally spread to the Marquis of Changning.

Zhao Qingqing had doubts and came to ask him.

Xie Heng smiled lightly, "It's nothing serious, it's just that sister Sister brought a maid when she came to Beijing, and she got lost by accident, and she couldn't find her for a long time. That maid grew up with her since she was a child, and she has deep feelings. This time I Back in Yangxia, my sister thought about it again. It just so happened that someone saw her two days ago and said she had jumped the moat. I thought, at least it was someone from the family, so I had to pick it up and make a clear distinction."

Then he persuaded her in a warm voice, "Qingqing, go back to the mansion, wait for the boatman to salvage it, lest you scare Qingqing."

He was gentle and considerate, causing the girl in front of him to lower her eyes shyly and blush.

Back in the mansion, the shyness on that face has not dissipated.

Bai Zhi brought tea and teased her with a smile, "Young master just said a few words to the girl, and the girl's face turned red like this. What should I do if I get married in the future? Is it possible to live with a blushing face every day?"

Zhao Qingqing was annoyed, she threw the handkerchief in her hand to scratch her.

Bai Zhi just hid behind Yunxi, and asked her while hiding, "A-Ning, tell me, is it right?"

Yun Xi just lowered his eyes and smiled, but didn't answer.
