Chapter 36

Keenly sensed something was wrong, he asked, "When will she burn these dresses?"

She was puzzled, but still replied, "It was after the government doctor found out that she was pregnant."

Yao Xuanci immediately held his breath, and became more cautious when holding his clothes.

Arjun didn't go to the banquet in the East Palace, she fainted unexpectedly, and learned that she was pregnant, and things changed from here on, and things will no longer be the same as in the previous life.

Today's Wen Qiong... is most likely his Arjun.

However, the huge sense of surprise only stayed for a moment, and Yao Xuanci froze in place.

She clearly hated him, but she still maintained a calm appearance, being gentle and gentle in the same room with him.

She was pretending to be good, seducing him quietly.

What is this for?

His mind was in a trance for a moment, and then his eyes went dark, and Yao Xuanci's consciousness was turned upside down and suppressed as the world spun.

The man quickly stabilized the suitcase at hand, his dark phoenix eyes were stained with a cold and plain look, he glanced at the burnt plain white dress in his hand, raised his hand and fell back into the suitcase.

He seems to have figured out how to take control of his body.

Yao Xuanci picked up a tea-white robe with dark patterns and changed into it, then got up and went to the main hall.

"mother in law."

Seeing him coming in, Wen's mother hurried forward, "What's the matter, is there any good news from Qiong'er?"

"There is no clue yet. I have ordered people to search in many places. Mother-in-law, please stay safe."

Wen's mother was persuaded by Wen Boqing and sent to act in a play, she couldn't bear it, so she held back her guilty conscience and wiped away a few tears.

"Qiong'er is weak, if something happens, it will kill me."

She was crying so hard that Yao Xuanci had no choice but to comfort her patiently, but after several times of consolation, it didn't work. After thinking about it, he said bluntly, "If mother-in-law is worried, it's better to stay in the Hou's mansion and wait for the news together."

Mother Wen was startled, that would not work, Boqing had said that Qiong'er would deliver a letter to her after she settled down in Weicheng, and she had to stay in Wen's mansion to wait for her daughter's letter.

She couldn't cry anymore, she said dryly, "How can there be such a rule, it's not appropriate, besides, Boqing hurt his leg when he went out to play yesterday, let's forget it."

Yao Xuanci frowned slightly, "Why did he hurt his leg, is there any serious problem?"

"..." Mother Wen held back for a while, "It's not bad, he fell on an old injury, he's so skinny, he deserves it."

When he was young, he made a living on the roof of the house, and when he grew up, he dared to persuade Qiong'er to do the absurd thing of being robbed and disappeared. If he fell down again and made him calm down, Mother Wen would not feel bad.

But she also realized that what she said was wrong, and she was afraid of revealing any flaws, so she found an excuse and wanted to leave in a hurry.

If he doesn't leave, he will be seen through his poor acting skills.

Yao Xuanci sent Mother Wen away in person, and went straight into the study after returning to Qingyu Courtyard.

He called out from the bottom of his heart, "Why are you silent?"

In the future, he will act aggressively and domineeringly, and will grab the dominance at the slightest opportunity. It is really abnormal for him to be so quiet and peaceful.

For a long time, "... Arjun is probably lying to you."

Yao Xuanci frowned, how could Wen's lie to him.

"His" tone was slightly sour, "Find her as soon as possible, she knows what will happen in two years."

"Even if she escapes from those two people, she will not return to the Hou's Mansion. To her, the Hou's Mansion is a cage for eating people."

It took Yao Xuanci a while to react, and then his face sank, "She is pregnant, where will she go if she doesn't go back to the Hou's mansion?"

If she doesn't like the current Hou's mansion, he can indulge her, follow her, and make the Hou's mansion into what she likes.

Her personality and appearance are what he is satisfied with, so it is not impossible to pay more attention to her.

She is his wife, and she should sleep with him in life and death.

When it was night, the autumn coolness gradually spread in the night, Mo Ya, dressed in black, blended into the darkness, and flew towards the Hou's mansion at the moment when the city gate was closed.

"Young master, there is a clue!"

The exhaustion on his face was washed away, leaving only ecstasy, and he rushed straight into the study.

Yao Xuanci rubbed the center of his brows, his voice was a little hoarse, "What clue?"

Even the white crow who just came in and hadn't said a word also looked at him.

"When my subordinates followed Madam up the mountain, they drank tea at the tea stand at the foot of the mountain and took a rest. At that time, there was a fish stall next to the tea stall. This subordinate originally planned to buy two fish to stew fish soup for Madam back home."

Mo Ya's eyes sparkled, "My subordinate passed by the tea stand at dusk. The lady at the tea stand said that the young stall owner closed the stall before he sold the fish at noon yesterday. He left with good legs and feet. He didn't come to sell fish today.Rehabilitate at home, it is a leg injury!"

He blushed with excitement, "The throwing knife of my subordinate once pierced the leg of one of them, but now that I think about it, the figure of that person is almost the same as that of the stall owner."

"The subordinate also asked the tea stall lady carefully. She lives next to the fish stall owner. That person often leaves early and returns late. He is mysterious. The village where the two are located is the first village downstream..”

After he finished speaking, he realized that the white crow was also there, and said happily, "You also found the trace of Madam?"

White Crow gritted his teeth, "No."

Suddenly, the door of the study room was knocked lightly, and the three people in the room looked together, only to see Nanny Pang standing at the door with an uneasy expression.

"Shi... Shizi." Nanny Pang walked in hesitantly, "I have something to report."

Thinking about the mess in the house today, she said bravely, "It's about Madam Shizi, the old slave once sent a letter for Madam, Madam asked Lao Nu to keep this matter a secret."

Now that Mrs. Shizi is missing, she is afraid that the fire will burn herself, so she simply gritted her teeth and told the story.

"What letter?"

"Mrs. Shizi knew that Miss Zheng Er lived in Dongyuan, so she asked the old slave to give Miss Zheng Er a letter."

Nanny Pang lowered her head, "The two of them are in contact, but I don't know if they have met in private."

Weicheng.

It is already September, and there are already many yellow leaves on the lush treetops. Every morning in the courtyard, a few fallen leaves will be blown down by the night wind, and will be wet by the autumn dew and stained on the bluestone slabs.

Wen Qiong put down the pen and ink in her hand, rubbed her eyebrows and looked out the window at the cool autumn rain, waiting for the ink on the letter paper to dry.

Grandfather's side has not yet been properly arranged, and she stayed in Weicheng for the time being, and the past few days are considered comfortable.

If it is uncomfortable, it is that Yao Xuanci is about to turn Jiuchongshan upside down because of her disappearance.

Baiyu has been secretly hunted down for several days, and now he is hiding in the imperial city to avoid the wind, Wen Qiong has a hunch that the truth of this fake show is about to be seen through.

However, it would be good for him to see through her intentions to leave the imperial city.

Only in this way can the red line held by the emperor be cut off, and he can get rid of her as he wishes without having to continue to be wronged by her, and he can marry whoever he wants.

Now that she insists on searching, it's just because she doesn't appreciate his kindness, which makes him unwilling.

What Wen Qiong really cares about is the new topic in the imperial city.

For some unknown reason, Zheng Ruyu and the Crown Princess got into a stalemate after Mrs. Zheng Guogong's birthday banquet.

She was very surprised when she learned about this from her mother's letter. You must know that the first thing the Crown Princess did when she entered the Central Palace was to call her into the palace to seek "justice" for her own sister.

Mother also seldom heard the gossip in the imperial city, and it seemed that there was a lot of trouble in her ears.

"lady."

The fourteen or fifteen-year-old maid walked into the study, bowed her knees and said softly, "A young master surnamed Xu came to visit, do you want him to come in?"

Wen Qiong came back to her senses, smiled, "Let him come to the study."

The elder brother was worried that she would be alone in Weicheng and had no one to rely on. It happened that Xu Linshu was doing business in Weicheng these days, so he took care of her a lot.

The house where Wen Qiong temporarily lived was not far from Xu Linshu, and he came to deliver a letter for her.

After carefully folding the letter to his mother and putting it in the envelope, the Qingjun youth who happened to be wearing a stone blue gown walked to the eaves holding an oiled paper umbrella.

Xu Linshu closed the oil-paper umbrella and stood aside, came in with a carved wooden food box, and said gently, "When I passed by the Crescent Moon Restaurant, I brought some signature meals for Miss Wen. You don't go out these days, and you have never tasted the authentic flavor of Weicheng.".”

Wen Qiong quickly thanked her, and got up from behind the desk, "Young Master Xu has a heart."

Her eyebrows and eyes were stained with helplessness, "You don't have to take my brother's words seriously, I have a maid who can take care of myself."

"How could it be the same?"

Xu Linshu dodged her hand trying to pick up the food box, and placed the heavy food box on the square coffee table by the window.

"Your original maids are still in the imperial city. The new maids are not familiar with your habits, and it will take a lot of time to get used to them."

He lifted the lid and took out the delicious food that was still steaming, "I just asked your little maid, she said that you didn't eat well this morning, and you didn't eat lunch, and the child in your belly will feel wronged if this continues.".”

He held the tail of the chopsticks and handed them to her, smiling half-jokingly and half-threateningly, "I'll turn around, and I will definitely report to your brother, if he is in a hurry, he will definitely rush to Weicheng."

Wen Qiong laughed, "My mother said to the outside world that he injured his leg, and he is still 'recovering' at the mansion."

When her mother came to the letter, she couldn't laugh or cry. She didn't expect her mother to say this in front of Yao Xuanci in order to find an excuse.

Xu Linshu supervised her to finish her lunch before taking away the ledger together with the envelope.

The drizzle fell all day and night, and the sky cleared up on the second day, and the temperature was much cooler.

The nanny in the yard was sweeping the fallen leaves that were soaked in water. Wen Qiong sat in the room after eating breakfast, looking at the petals that withered and fell to the ground after being blown by the wind and rain last night.Take the maid out for a walk, and buy two dresses that are suitable and pleasing to the eye.

But when she was about to move, she gave up the idea again.

Sun Yuyi said that his prescriptions have some side effects, the only symptoms of misfortune are severe in the morning and dinner, Wen Qiong can still bear it, but it is really helpless to feel weak all over the body.

After thinking about it, she still asked the little maid to move a rocking chair in the yard, took out a round fan and covered her face, lazily basking in the bright autumn sun.

When she was about to fall asleep in a daze, someone suddenly snatched the silk fan from her face. Wen Qiong was awakened unexpectedly, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a shining young man in red clothes, and her beating heart slowed down.down.

He couldn't help but say in disgust, "Wen Boqing, are you a three-year-old child?"

It was really childish to suddenly take away her fan.

Wen Boqing smiled and shook her silk fan, "Ah Qiong is too casual."

Wen Qiong got up and snatched her round fan, and sat back, "Why did you come here?"

"I'm here to accompany my Arjun."

He was very thick-skinned, "By the way, personally escort your rich family property."

What Wen Boqing was talking about was the gold and silver that he got from Miss Zheng Er.

The address that Wen Qiong gave Zheng Ruyu back then was Wen Boqing's house of guards.

Thinking of Zheng Ruyu, Wen Qiong said, "What is the matter between the Crown Princess and Miss Zheng Er, can my brother know?"

"A little bit." Wen Boqing lightly raised the corners of his lips.

Wen Qiong saw the four big words "Come and beg me" written on his face, and she patted his shoulder persistently with a round fan. She only seemed to be urging, "Say it quickly, don't make detours."

The Crown Princess was determined to let Yao Xuanci and Zheng Ruyu, the fateful mandarin ducks, get their wish, but now that she has fallen out with Zheng Ruyu, she is curious from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing the eagerness in her eyes, Wen Boqing had no choice but to hold back his jokes, "It is said that the crown prince intends to marry Miss Zheng Er as his side concubine."

"?"

Wen Qiong couldn't believe it, her beautiful amber eyes were full of shock, "The crown prince asked Zheng Ruyu to marry him?!"

How could the crown prince marry Zheng Ruyu... No, Yao Xuanci should be the one who wants to tie the knot with Zheng Ruyu, how could he become the crown prince?

Her mind was in a mess. Although there were many unknowns in this life, it was a bit weird.

What happened in all of this, the crown prince really asked to marry Zheng Ruyu as his side concubine, wouldn't it be a robbery with Yao Xuanci?

She couldn't understand and couldn't figure it out so much that she uttered the last sentence from the bottom of her heart. Wen Boqing was puzzled when she heard the words.

"What's the matter with Yao Xuanci?"

"The day before yesterday, he came to Wen's mansion to tell his mother about the progress of your disappearance, and he thought the two were a good match."

Wen Qiong was stunned, "Isn't that right?"

The author has something to say:

ah good night
