Shaojun riding the sea

When Granny Xi staggered and ran into the lobby with a panic look on her face, Shi Zhongqing was pulling Yue Wujiu in front of him, whispering to him in a voice that only the two of them could hear. It was nothing more than those who treated his daughter well. , I told her to live up to her, but after saying this, Shi Zhongqing changed the subject, his eyes suddenly darkened, he became more innocent and pulled closer, and said softly:
"My child, since you are married to Xuan Ling today and you have made me your father-in-law, I can barely count you as half of your father. Please listen to my advice. Don't pursue the case of Yuejia... Don't pursue it any further. There will be no consequences. As a result, it’s almost impossible to overturn the verdict.”

Above the wedding hall, Yue Wujiu was waiting for the bride's arrival with joy, but unexpectedly he heard the four heavy words "Yuejia Case" from Shi Zhongqing's mouth. His heartstrings tightened and he subconsciously said:

"But my father did not seek rebellion, he was wronged..."

"It's not important. The Marquis of Yue is loyal and courageous. He and I have been officials in the court for so many years, and I don't believe that he would do anything treasonous. However, the Yue family case has been settled for a long time. You can pursue the case again." It's completely meaningless. Have such unjust cases happened rarely in all dynasties? How many people can redress the injustice and reverse the case as they wish?"

This is the first time Shi Zhongqing has revealed his true thoughts in front of Yue Wujiu. It is completely different from his previous attitude of pretending to be deaf and mute and protecting himself. The reason for this is naturally for the third girl in his family who is getting married today. Yue Wujiu Wu Jiu also knew that the "father-in-law" in front of him had good intentions, but there was still a surge of blood in his chest, forcing him to clench his fists. When he couldn't help but want to say something, Shi Zhongqing was touched by Shi Zhongqing on his shoulder. He patted it suddenly.

That moment could not be called light or heavy, but Yue Wujiu could not move at all. His throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand in the void. As his blood surged, he was so anxious that he was covered in cold sweat, but I couldn't even spit out even half a word.

Shi Zhongqing stared at the young man's red eyes, sighed, patted him on the shoulder again, and whispered:

"Young man, don't be impulsive and show off. You are married today and you are no longer alone. Think clearly about the path you are going to take. Don't involve yourself in danger. Even if you follow the rules of the world, disaster will happen. You are not as good as your wife and children, but you can shoulder it all by yourself, but do you really think that what you want to do will not involve...your family?"

Saying that, Shi Zhongqing patted Yue Wujiu's shoulder gently and not too hard. Yue Wujiu's body trembled, as if an invisible hand in the void suddenly let go of his neck. He felt as if he had been granted amnesty. After coughing a few times, he finally regained his breath and raised his head to look at Shi Zhongqing.

They were so close to each other that no one else could see their little secrets. They just thought that Shi Zhongqing was worried about his daughter and had lots of advice for Yue Wu Jiu.

It's just that this scene can't help but feel a bit strange in the eyes of one person. Not far away, Zhong Lisheng was shaking the black iron folding fan, wondering in his heart: "When did Lao Yue and the hero Shi become so close to each other? How could these two people get together?" Can we talk for so long?"

His curiosity aroused, he quietly and slowly approached the two people, holding his breath and concentrating, he raised his inner strength, and when he moved the tips of his ears, he heard Shi Zhongqing saying to Yue Wujiu in a deep voice:
"Okay, as soon as New Year's Eve is over, you can take Xuan Ling back to Yunzhou Island. You will stay at sea for the rest of your life and don't come back to the imperial city again. This is not a good place. It is full of dangers. There are so many people who want you to die. I don’t know, you are living in seclusion at sea with Xuan Ling, living well is better than anything else..."

Zhong Lisheng heard these words in a daze, not knowing the cause and effect. He turned around and saw that Yue Wujiu had a look of despair on his face. He couldn't help but frown, and when he stepped forward to ask what happened, A panicked voice suddenly came from outside the lobby, ringing in everyone's ears——

"Oh no, the bride is gone, the bride is gone!"

This was like a thunderbolt from the blue. The three men in the hall turned their heads at the same time. Zhongli Sheng was the closest to Grandma Xi. He immediately stepped forward and asked anxiously: "What? What do you mean the bride is missing?"

Yue Wujiu and Shi Zhongqing also changed their expressions at the same time. Grandma Xi's body was shaking like chaff and she said in panic: "That's right, the third lady is missing!"

She came all the way to report the news, but now she couldn't hold it any longer and knelt down in front of Shi Zhongqing with a plop, her face turned pale with fright:

"Sir, the third lady is not in the new house. After the twelve bells rang, I went to pick up the third lady in the new house, but the room was empty. The third lady was missing. I led my servants to search the whole house. But there is no trace of the third lady, what should I do?"

"How could this be? Have you all looked carefully? How could a living person disappear for no reason?"

Shi Zhongqing's face turned pale, and when he was about to order someone to go out to look for him, Yue Wujiu next to him had a thought in his mind and suddenly said:
"Where is the second lady? Is the second lady still in the house?"

As soon as his question came out, it could be said that he woke up the dreamer. Shi Zhongqing's pupils tightened, and he immediately ordered people to search around the house. Sure enough, Shi Xuanqin also disappeared without a trace.

Just when the wedding ceremony was about to begin, the two daughters of the Shi family disappeared together. No one could figure it out.

Zhong Lisheng still had a bad temper and blurted out: "Does his grandmother need to guess? It must have been the crazy second sister of Xuan Ling who abducted the person! She didn't want to look at the old lady at all. The more you marry another woman, that crazy bitch just wants to ruin this wedding!" As he spoke, he looked at Yue Wujiu again and yelled urgently: "Lao Yue, think about it quickly, your old lover will kill that girl Where to go?"

"She's an old lover, I've killed her a long time ago..."

"Okay, okay, isn't it still an old love debt you left behind? Think about it quickly, where did you and that crazy woman like to go?"

Zhong Lisheng was anxious, but also felt strange: "Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. Although the second young lady is a madman, she has no power to restrain a chicken. Now Xuan Ling is so capable that he can crush her to death with one finger. How could she still take people away so easily? Unless, unless..."

"Unless Xiao Lingdang is willing to go with her second sister!"

Yue Wujiu's eyes were burning, and he was keenly aware of something, and his heart suddenly tightened: "She must have said something to Xuan Ling to successfully deceive the person. Damn it, what method did she use, and how could she Where to take people..."

The whole house was in chaos. Shi Zhongqing stood under the red word "hi" with his temples twitching. This scene actually gave him an absurd sense of familiarity——

On the day he and Huo Pingting got married, Huo Pingting also ran to the bamboo forest courtyard and found Mu Nanzhi. She showed off and humiliated Mu Nanzhi so much that Nanzhi was so stimulated that she drank alcohol to kill him on the night of his wedding. Sad, drunk and unconscious, and finally buried in a sea of ​​fireworks and fire together with the baby in her belly!

For many years, this has always been his lingering nightmare. He lost his love forever on the day of his wedding. Could it be that God is unkind and will this nightmare happen again in the Shi family today?
A deep panic surged in Shi Zhongqing's heart. No one understood Huo Pingting's twisted madness better than him. It was obvious that Shi Xuanqin and her mother were exactly the same now. The mother and daughter were "from the same origin". It’s hard to say what you can do if you become possessed!

"Quick, we must find Xuan Ling quickly, otherwise something will happen and she will be in danger!"

Shi Zhongqing got excited and walked out of the hall. Just when he was about to leave the house in person to find Shi Xuanling, a thin, inconspicuous figure huddled in the corner suddenly stood out from the chaos, trembling. Stopped in front of him and knelt down suddenly——

"Master, slave, slave, maybe you know where the third lady was taken!"

The little girl who was kneeling on the ground and was as white as paper was none other than the little maid Heng'er who had been following Shi Xuanqin. As soon as she said this, not only Shi Zhongqing, but also Yue Wujiu and Zhong Lisheng also changed their expressions and quickly came to the scene. The crowd gathered in front.

Heng'er knelt on the ground, facing the eager gazes of the three men. With her conscience uneasy, she could no longer hide it, and finally said in a trembling voice:
"I, my young lady should have taken the third lady out of the city, to... to the Qixia Mountain on the outskirts of the city!"

"Qixia Mountain?" Shi Zhongqing frowned and suddenly realized: "It's the Qixia Mountain that Xuan Qin and Prince An went to before? Why did she take her third sister there?"

"Because, because the young lady once mistakenly believed that she encountered a pack of wolves on Qixia Mountain, and was abandoned by Prince An at that time, she was greatly frightened and felt it was a great shame and humiliation. She said that it was all the fault of the third young lady. She has fallen into such a situation, so she also wants to ask the third lady to have a taste of what she was like back then..."

Now that the explanation had come to this point, Heng'er felt relieved and simply told the rest:
"My servant just went to the Prince's Mansion with the young lady not long ago. The young lady asked Prince Na An for an exotic flower, which seems to be called ancient road mandala. The young lady once went on a cruise with Prince An and saw it from him. It is said that the petals, branches and leaves of this strange plant have special poison. When it reaches a certain number, it can paralyze a person's limbs, making them unable to move, like a zombie..."

"The young lady asked Prince An for a lot of these ancient road mandala plants, and transplanted them in a remote place in Qixia Mountain early. She said that she would lead her there on the day of the third young lady's wedding. , trapping her in that small sea of ​​mandala flowers on the ancient road, making her whole body frozen and unable to escape, leaving her to be slaughtered!"

When Heng'er said this, her eyes were filled with tears. She raised her head and looked at Shi Zhongqing, her face full of regret and fear——

"My servant tried to persuade the young lady, but she seemed possessed. She insisted on dealing with the third lady like this. She also said that the third lady would never be able to marry Mr. Yue again in her life. The more I thought about it, the more something was wrong. Really... it was really... I'm afraid that the young lady has murderous intentions and causes trouble on Qixia Mountain. Sir, please go quickly and go to Qixia Mountain to save the third young lady!"
