Chapter 69 Find someone
The servant gave Mo Ya a strange look, and then realized that Mo Ya was not from the capital, so he didn't know much about these anecdotes in Beijing.
"You may not know that a month ago, Mr. Xiangbai asked the steward for leave, but he never came back. The steward's mother was furious, so she gave the best courtyard to our son..."
Before the boy could finish speaking, Mo Xia hurriedly interrupted: "Then do you know where Xiang Bai went?"
"How would I know this?" The servant looked at Mo Ya inexplicably, as if Xiang Bai was a little strange to be so nervous about Mo Ya.
Seeing that he couldn't find out anything, Mo Xia didn't want to say much, and after hastily perfunctory, he left with an excuse: "That's the reason, but I came here for nothing."
After bidding farewell to the servant, Mo Xia seemed to be heading towards the gate, but actually turned around and went to the main courtyard to find the steward of Xianlai Lake.
Although Mo Ya used to come to Xianlai Lake often, he always walked quietly, so the steward of Xianlai Lake didn't recognize Mo Xia.
But seeing Mo Xia's extraordinary demeanor, the manager still had a smile on his face, and asked very politely: "This young master is here to find slaves, what's the matter?"
Mo Ya went straight to the point: "Does the manager know where Xiang Bai went?"
Since Xiangbai's disappearance, many people who admired Xiangbai have come to her to ask questions. Without thinking, the manager blurted out: "He came to me in a hurry a month ago, saying that he had some important business at home and wanted to go back. I seeHe looked anxious, and it was not easy to pity him, so he agreed. Who would have thought that he would never come back after this trip."
At the end, the steward also showed a bit of anger.
Xiang Bai really slapped her in the face.
If she hadn't been in charge of Xianlai Lake for many years, she usually has a bit of prestige, and she can be regarded as trustworthy.I'm afraid that those villains below who are ready to move have already used this matter to add fuel to the plot, and let the people above take away her position in charge.
Mo Xia asked again: "Does the steward know the reason?"
"How do I know this? Don't think that Xiang Bai is a humble family member, but he is so noble that he can't even compare with princes and nobles. He has never told us where his home is. When something like this happens, I amI wanted to find it, but there was no reason to go.”
Mo Xia thanked the steward, rushed to Xiang Bai's house without stopping, pushed open the gate of the courtyard, and immediately shouted loudly: "Abo, Abo, are you there? Weiwei, Weiwei..."
Mo Xia's voice stopped abruptly.
In the main room, the tables and chairs were tilted and overturned, and the teacups and pottery bowls were broken to the ground.
Mo Xia panicked, rushed out the door, searched every room, every corner, without missing a single place, but still couldn't see the figures of Xiang Bai and Xiang Wei.
Xiangbai's home was in a courtyard on a mountain in the outskirts of Beijing, with no village in front of it or a shop in the back. On weekdays, few people passed by. Such a big event happened, and it was impossible to even ask the neighbors for news.
Mo Xia's heart sank, he couldn't care about Mingxianghou's mansion, so he hurried back to the Fifth Prince's mansion, and went to Lu Chenzhang's study without stopping.
Lu Chenzhang was sitting in front of the case and dealing with matters. Seeing Mo Ya lost his mind, he hurriedly asked, "Ah Ya, what's going on, why are you in such a hurry?"
Although Mo Xia knew that Lu Chenzhang looked down on Xiangbai, but his worry made him forget so much, he fixedly looked at Lu Chenzhang, and said, "Your Highness, can you lend me Yunding?"
Lu Chenzhang has always been responsive to Mo Ya's requests, and when he saw him speak, he called Du Yunding to Mo Ya without even asking why.
Unexpectedly, one day passed, even Du Yunding could not find Xiang Bai's whereabouts.
Mo Ya really panicked now.
This means that perhaps Xiang Bai is no longer in the capital.
