Chapter 208 The little boy is gone
A stick of incense passed and there was no sound at all in the yard. Zhou Yue frowned. Why was there no movement from the people inside?Even if you are sleeping, you should be woken up, right?
Mrs. Qin in front of the door rested for a while, and looked at Zhou Yue with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, Jingkang has seen many doctors over the years, took a lot of medicine, and had a lot of needles, but he still hasn't improved , so I became more and more resistant to see a doctor, every time I brought someone here, it was like this..."

"Is there no waiter inside?" Zhou Yue asked.

"There are only two young men, probably Jingkang won't let them open the door." Mrs. Qin explained that this happens from time to time, and she is used to it, so she turned around and continued to knock on the door.

Zhou Yue quietly released her thoughts and looked into the yard. There was no one outside. She continued to search the house and finally found... two people in a room!

The two are not in a good condition now. One is tied to a chair and is struggling constantly, and the other is knocked out and tied to the head of the bed, unconscious.

Zhou Yue searched the entire yard with her mind, but she didn't find any trace of the young master. Judging from the situation, it should be the young master who did it.

"Mrs. Qin, no one has opened the door for so long. Could it be that something happened?" Zhou Yue hinted.

"Ah? No way?" Mrs. Qin said no, but her brows gradually sank.

Qin Jingxi couldn't bear his temper, and walked to the gate of the courtyard, "Mother, what if something happens? I'll kick open the door and go in to have a look!" As he spoke, he raised his leg and kicked hard.

"Bang!" The courtyard door was kicked open, and Qin Jingxi was the first to rush in.

When Mrs. Qin saw that he had already gone in, she had no choice but to lead the others inside. She was still thinking about how to coax her youngest son to see the doctor later.

"Ah!" Qin Jingxi, who entered first, exclaimed.

"What's the matter? What a shame to yell!" Mrs. Qin condemned, glanced at her second son, and then stepped into the room.

"what!"

Madam Qin shouted, seeing the boy tied to the chair, she pointed at the chair with trembling fingers, "What's going on?"

Qin Jingxi stepped forward and took the cloth from the boy's mouth, and asked while untying the rope, "What happened? Where did Jingkang go?"

There were no signs of fighting in the house. It was either the bad guys outside or the good deeds of my brother.

"Back to the second young master, after lunch yesterday, the young master said he wanted to rest, so he drove Xiao and Jixiang out of the yard. An hour later, when we saw that the young master hadn't woken up yet, we planned to go in and take a look. I didn't expect to be knocked unconscious by the young master as soon as I entered the door..." The boy explained what happened aggrievedly.

Hearing what the young man said, Mrs. Qin's face turned dark. That brat actually ran away from home and left alone. I don't know what he will do at night. It really makes me angry and anxious!
"Quick, send someone to look for him!" Mrs. Qin directed Grandma Wang to summon the guards in the mansion to go out to look for someone.

Grandma Wang quickly accepted the order, turned around and ran out quickly.

Mrs. Qin's mind was buzzing, and she sat on a chair to relax her mind. Qin Jingxi also untied the servant on the bed, and woke up to ask questions, and got the same reply as before.

Mrs. Qin, who was in a good mood, suddenly realized that Zhou Yue was still there, and turned to look: "Mr. Zhou, look at this... Can you stay in the house until you find the traitor in my family? This place is quite far from Haiping County. It’s far away and it’s troublesome to run back and forth.”

Zhou Yue thought that it would be fine to stay for a day or two, besides, the money has been collected, and it’s okay to wait, and she can also take a stroll around Fucheng, so she nodded and said: "Okay, please trouble Madam."

"It's not troublesome. It's all my fault for the rebellious son of mine who caused this incident and made Mr. Zhou a joke." Mrs. Qin mentioned her youngest son, and the mood that had just calmed down surged again.

"Jingzhang, take Mr. Zhou to resettle him." Mrs. Qin commanded, and asked the eldest son to take Zhou Yue to the guest room to resettle.

Qin Jingzhang nodded, "Master Zhou, please." As he said that, he led Zhou Yue to the front yard.

After setting up a room for Zhou Yue to rest, Qin Jingzhang ordered the servant girls in the yard to take good care of Zhou Yue, and then hurried to find his younger brother.

The Qin family has a big business, so it is not difficult to find a child for so many people.

Zhou Yue asked the maids and servants in the courtyard to go about their business, while she left the Qin Mansion and prepared to visit the city.

King Jin's fiefdom is very rich, and the former emperor loved King Jin very much. If it wasn't for King Jin's bad move, he might be the current emperor.

Even if King Jin failed to ascend to the throne of God, the old emperor insisted on giving him such a piece of fertile land before he died.

Dongguan Mansion has always had good weather and weather, and there are few natural disasters such as drought and floods. People's lives are better than other mansions. In addition, it is closer to Nanyue Kingdom, there are many caravans, and the economy is better than many mansions.

Zhou Yue walked slowly on the street, and the sounds of hawking could be heard on both sides. The dazzling array of shops and various stalls made it a bustling scene.

Just as she was walking in front of a theater, cheers erupted inside. Zhou Yue took a look. She had never been to a place like a theater before, so she decided to go in and have a look.

As soon as she entered the theater building, Zhou Yue was overwhelmed by the people around her. There were too many people. The surrounding tables and chairs were all full of people. Many people had no seats and stood directly in the hall. Everyone stared at him intently. The stage, for fear of missing the wonderful bridge.

"Clang clang~"

There was the sound of percussion instruments on the stage, Zhou Yue turned her head and looked, a woman in a Baihua costume knelt down to a man, and rapped and sang.

"This little girl has nothing to repay for the kindness of saving her life. She is willing to pledge her life to accompany the young master~"

Zhou Yue frowned. These familiar lines and routines were so old-fashioned!
"Good!" There were applause and cheers again.

After taking a look at the reactions of the people around him, their eyes were all shining, and they seemed to be quite moved by the people in the story.

It turns out they actually like this kind of story!Zhou Yue was silently thinking about whether she should open another theater. After all, she knew a lot of such stories, and this theater seemed to be doing well.

Thinking about things in her mind, Zhou Yue was gradually squeezed into a corner by the people around her. When she came back to her senses, she found that she was standing in the northwest corner of the hall. There was only one customer sitting at the table in the corner, a child.

Zhou Yue took a closer look at this man. His skin was very fair and his clothes were of good quality. At first glance, he looked like a young man from a wealthy family, but he was a little thin.

He watched the performance on the stage, and he didn't cheer like the people around him. On the contrary, he was calm and uninterested. His eyes were sleepy, not like a child of this age.

Perhaps sensing Zhou Yue's probing eyes, the boy turned around and looked straight at Zhou Yue, with anger in his eyes.

"What are you looking at me for?!"
