The Emperor’s Heart is Rippling

    065

    Originally, when Meng Li and Qin Wu went to Zhuangzi, it would take up to five or six days to go back and forth. But this time, Chanyi and Chen shi waited at home for about seven days, but they still didn't see Meng Li coming back. Chen Shi was a little worried, and said to Chanyi, "Your second brother went to the farmhouse and hasn't returned for a long time. Did something happen?"

    Chanyi was also a little worried about Meng Li, but it was not appropriate to tell Chen Shi at this time, otherwise it would make her worry and make her condition worse. Therefore, with a calm face, she held Chen Shi's hand to reassure her: "What are you worrying about? Don't you know what my second brother is like, what can happen to a belly of bad water? Maybe he is with Qin? Fifth Young Master played on Zhuangzi for two days, is this something you should worry about?"

    Because of Chen's illness, the only available man in the family could not leave, so after coming to Tongzhou, Meng Li listened to Chanyi's command and hired two or three day laborers at home help. If there is work at home, he will do it, if not, he will leave, and never let anyone enter the inner courtyard. In addition, there is a mother Liu in the house, as well as the dowry mother Xu in the Chen's shop, plus two maids Mingyu Mingcui from Chanyi, two little maids who run errands, and two men beside Meng Li. A long follower is enough for the time being.

    Meng Li took away Shi Feng's younger brother, Shi Yu, and left him on a study tour as a long-call Mo Xin. Chanyi asked Mo Xin to go to the farm to find Meng Li, and if he saw the second son, he would go home as soon as possible, not to play outside.

    After Mo Xin got off, she rode out of the city and went to the Meng family's farm.

    At that time, Chanyi didn't know that something would happen to Meng Li.

    In her eyes, although Meng Li looks free and uninhibited, and likes to play with herself, she is very measured. If he was really playing outside, he would have sent someone back to report, but this time he didn't make a sound. Chanyi didn't think about it at the time, but after she figured it out, Mo Xin had already returned with the news.

    "The villain arrived at Zhuangzi yesterday afternoon, and did not dare to enter Zhuangzi without the slightest delay. Unexpectedly, Zhuangtou was very surprised when he heard the villain came looking for the second son. Without waiting for the villain to ask, Zhuangtou told the villain that the second son had returned to the city four days ago."

    "The villain noticed something was wrong, so he rushed back overnight. I happened to meet the soldier on duty at the city gate early this morning, so I went to ask, but the soldier said that he had never seen it before. The second son entered the city. The villain thought that the son might have encountered an accident, so he hurried back to report to you." Mo Xin looked a little anxious.

    "What?" Chanyi was startled and almost knocked over the tea cup at hand, her face changed greatly: "You said my second brother left the farm early, but no one entered the city?"

    Mo Xin nodded and hurriedly said: "Little lady, what should I do now? Otherwise, let's go to the official!"

    Chan Yi frowned, hesitated for a while, and said, "Of course I have to report to the official, but this matter cannot be let Madam know."

    My mother is not in good health, and it took her a year to adjust to what she is today. If he heard that his second brother was missing, he would definitely be furious and affect his body.

    "In this way, Mo Xin, go to the yamen to report to the official, take out the name of the Empress Dowager, and let Master Liu find my second brother as soon as possible." Meng Lang is now a seventh-rank petty official , even though it is the province of the power center, but now there is nothing to be afraid of. Only the name of the Meng family is still available, but Chanyi hated Meng Fufeng, so she simply borrowed the power of the Queen Mother Meng.

    In comparison, she wanted to be like Queen Mother Meng after all, so she didn't need to be hypocritical at this time.

    "Yes." Mo Xin responded, looking anxious and about to leave.

    Chanyi called him, "When the madam asked, she said...the second son heard that his classmate and friend passed by Jizhou, so he went to Jizhou to visit his friend, and after half a month Just go back. Also, when you go to see Master Liu later, tell the truth about your wife's situation, and then ask Master Liu not to speak up about it."

    After saying that, she took out a white jade pendant, "This jade pendant was given to me by the Empress Dowager. You can rely on this thing, and Master Liu will give you convenience." This jade pendant is a When the late emperor was alive, he asked artisans to carve it out of a piece of suet jade found in Lantian. There are two pieces in total. It looks like a pair of swimming fish, and they seem to come alive when they are put into the water. One was given to the Empress Dowager Meng, who had just been conferred at the time, and the other was with the late emperor. Later, when Xiao Ze proposed to take him as a concubine, the Queen Mother Meng brought it to herself.

    According to Empress Dowager Meng, the other jade pendant should be with Xiao Ze.

    Chan Yi was in a state of confusion at that time, and she did not feel any joy, but was a little irritable. Later, when she decided to come to Tongzhou, she turned it over and played with it often.

    It's barely...missing Xiao Ze!

    Of course, about the jade pendant, Chanyi also told Xiao Ze in the letter, and Xiao Ze replied and asked her to keep it. Therefore, Chanyi took it with confidence.

    Mo Xin nodded, then took it from Chanyi's hand and left in her gesture.

    Xiao Ze was sitting in the carriage. At this time, the carriage was parked outside Tongzhou City, waiting in line for the inspection by the guards. The driver outside was Fu Cheng, dressed in black and wearing a hat, bowed his head and said to the inside of the car, "Young Master, should we go to the inn first, or...?"

    Or go straight to Mrs. Meng's house?

    I don't blame Fucheng for asking, he generally understands why his Majesty came to Tongzhou. Although he said that he was here to investigate the matter of Yanyin, if Mrs. Meng was not in Tongzhou, why should His Majesty come in person for this matter?

    However, His Majesty hides it very well, and I can't see how he misses Mrs. Meng at all. Ahem, except that he let himself go day and night.

    "...Go to the inn." A deep voice sounded in the carriage.

    Xiao Ze is hiding his identity this time. He came to Tongzhou with a low profile, so naturally he would not go to the inn. So, after entering the city, Fucheng looked for an inn closest to Meng's house. As soon as he went out, he turned a corner and entered the alley, which was Chanyi's home.

    "The subordinates have found out that the second son of Meng's disappearance was implicated by the fifth son of Qin. Because of the account book in the hands of the fifth son of Qin, as soon as the two left Meng's house, they were targeted. When the second son of Dao Meng returned to the city, he was ambushed." An Qi, who had been with Chanyi for a year, knelt on the ground and reported to the man standing by the window.

      However, he still couldn't hide his high-quality temperament.

    He looked indifferent, looked into the distance with a blank expression, and said coldly, "What happened later?"

     "Later, the subordinates investigated the place where the second son of Meng disappeared, and found that the second son of Meng was suddenly taken away by the fifth son of Qin. An Shi and An Shi have already gone. The matter has been investigated, but so far the reward has not resulted."

    Xiao Ze's eyes were dark, and after a long time he said, "Then continue to investigate. Leave this matter to An Wu, you just need to protect Mrs. Meng."

    An Qi clasped his fists and said, "Subordinates obey."

    After saying that, he raised his head cautiously, glanced at Xiao Ze, and then lowered his head quickly and said, "Ms. Meng is very worried today, why don't your majesty... go have a look?"

    The direction His Majesty looked at just now is the direction of the Meng family...

    "A lot of things." Xiao Ze heard this, turned his head and glanced at him lightly.

    An Qi only felt a shock all over her body, and then realized that she was out of line. He was worried if His Majesty would punish him for this, when he heard Xiao Ze ask: "She... is sad?"

    Yes, when Meng Lang fell into prison, she was also very sad, and finally asked herself for help. This time, it was her other brother, so she should be worried too!

    Xiao Ze pursed his lips, suddenly turned and walked out.

    "Your Majesty... Young Master! Where are you going?" Fu Cheng was coming in with a basin of water. .

    Xiao Ze ignored him and walked downstairs quickly.

    After saying that, he Shi Shiran bypassed Fucheng, jumped up onto the roof, and disappeared like a ghost in the blink of an eye.

    Xiao Ze strode out of the inn, and walked straight towards the Mengjia alley with a cold face. But when he was about to enter, he stopped, looked at the bright red candied haws in front of him, and suddenly said: "A bunch."

    Xiao Ze did not answer, but stared at another string of red and plump candied haws and said, "This string."

    The old man changed it, took off the string and said, "Young master bought it for the lady in the family! Your relationship with your wife is really good. Well, it's two cents in total."

      turned away.

    The buildings on the south side are delicate, and even the courtyard walls are lower than those on the north side. Xiao Ze stood outside the wall in the backyard of Meng's house, listened to it, and found that there was no sound, then jumped into it skillfully.

    Chanyi waited for Chen to finish using the medicine, and when she returned to the room, she was shocked.

    There is no other reason, there seems to be another person's breathing in the room. She looked through the screen and saw a tall figure standing inside. She turned her head and was about to go out. By the way, the voice had reached her throat.

    Suddenly, a gust of wind hit, and the door in front of you closed with a "snap".

    Chanyi: "..." It's amazing!

    "It's me." Just when she hesitated whether to call someone, a deep voice suddenly came from inside.

    Sounds familiar…

    She suddenly raised her head and stared at the figure with a sigh.

    I saw a steady sound of footsteps.

    A man in black came out.

    Holding the bright red candied haws, she frowned.

    The author has something to say: Chanyi: A bit silly
