Divine Doctor's Daughter: The Imperial Concubine

Chapter 168 Missing
"Miss, Princess Jin is here." Xia Zhiqi was sitting by the bed, holding a book in her hand and reading again, but her face was flushed all the time, her eyes were a little blurred, she didn't look like she was reading a book at all, when she heard Some people can't help but not respond when they speak.

"What?" Xia Zhiqi turned around and asked.

Chu Ruoying had already walked in at this time, and after seeing Xia Zhiqi's confused look, she smiled lightly and said, "What is Zhiqi thinking at this moment?"

"Ying'er!" Xia Zhiqi couldn't help standing up when she saw the person coming, and shouted in surprise.

Chu Ruoying looked at Xia Zhiqi with a half-smile, raised her eyebrows and said, "Zhiqi, did it take you so long to see me?"

Xia Zhiqi blushed immediately, gave Chu Ruoying an angry look, and said nothing.

"Okay, it's getting late, Mrs. Guo promised to let you come back before you, let's go." Chu Ruoying saw that she was shy, so she didn't say much. It would be a disaster if Xia Zhiqi was shy and unwilling to go. Then her efforts would be in vain.

"Where are you going?" Xia Zhiqi asked while following Chu Ruoying out of the yard.

Chu Ruoying kept walking, and said with a smile, "Of course I'm going to see the person Zhiqi misses."

Xia Zhiqi suddenly understood, and just when she was about to say no, Chu Ruoying directly pulled her wrist, and rushed towards the yard in the morning.

After arriving at the courtyard, Prince Jing naturally waited there. Chu Ruoying handed Xia Zhiqi into Prince Jing's hands, then turned around and left the courtyard, saying at the same time: "Prince Jing, this concubine has promised the Duke and Madam, and will definitely guarantee that Zhiqi If it is intact, I hope Prince Jing will protect Zhiqi well."

"Naturally." Prince Jing nodded in response, and Chu Ruoying didn't stay too long, and left quickly.

Wandering alone in Hanshan Temple, she walked to the cold pool in the back mountain without knowing it. Chu Ruoying remembered that she had been poisoned by the love potion, and it was only here that she solved it. After standing by the cold pool for a while , Chu Ruoying turned around to leave, but just as she walked away, a bamboo green figure suddenly appeared here.

Xu Nuo had been standing far away just now, and when he saw Chu Ruoying here, he wanted to step forward, but suddenly realized that their identities no longer allowed them to have too much contact in private, and their hearts were filled with mixed feelings.

"Brother Xu, it's a bit cold here." Xu Nuo was watching quietly, when suddenly Jun Moxi's voice came from behind him, Xu Nuo froze, turned around and saluted respectfully: "I've seen the fifth princess."

The smile on Jun Moxi's lips froze, the bitterness in his eyes flashed, and he stepped forward and said: "Brother Xu, get up, there is no need for this between us."

Xu Nuo stood up, and didn't know what to say, so he could only stand there silently. Jun Moxi resisted the embarrassment in his heart, and stepped forward and said softly: "Brother Xu, the queen mother said that in half a month it will be an auspicious day." , let's get married at that time, shall we?"

Xu Nuo froze, and said after a while, "Princess, I have asked the emperor for an order, and I will go to the frontier to quell the chaos in half a month."

The smile on Jun Moxi's face disappeared immediately, and she looked at Xu Nuo silently for a while, then turned around at the moment tears fell, and said in a low voice: "Brother Xu, it's okay, we can go first Get married, and then I will wait for you to return in victory, and then I can go to the city gate to accept my brother."

"The humble minister obeys the order." The moment Jun Moxi turned around, Xu Nuo also saw the tears in the corner of her eyes, with mixed emotions in her heart, and finally took a step back.

The cold water in the cold pond is colder than the unpopular one after all, Jun Moxi suddenly didn't quite understand the reason for her persistence, she lowered her head and smiled self-deprecatingly, and left here without looking back.

Here, Chu Ruoying walked alone to the edge of the cliff where she and Qi Chen fell together. For some reason, Chu Ruoying always had an inexplicable emotion for the person who died on the cliff. Seeing that there was no one around, Chu Ruoying took out the long silk from her sleeve, and took advantage of the opportunity to jump in again.

The appearance on the cliff was exactly the same as the last time Chu Ruoying left. Chu Ruoying found the switch on the cliff again based on her memory, and only walked in again after the stone door slowly opened.

The inside of the facility is obviously much drier than the outside of the facility, and there is nothing special about the things in the cave. When Chu Ruoying walked into the corpse that had turned into bones, she always felt that the clothes on the corpse looked familiar, but she wanted to Can't remember where I saw it.

Chu Ruoying took out a sharp dagger from her sleeve, then grabbed a corner of the clothes, scratched off the corner of the clothes, looked carefully for a while, and felt that there was still no clue, then stuffed the broken steps into the Then he began to look through the books in the hole, and found that there was nothing special about it.

Chu Ruoying frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't figure out an idea, so she had to back out the same way.

This time after Chu Ruoying left the cliff, she was going back to the yard to rest for a while, but just after walking for a while, she felt something was wrong. The forest was too quiet, and it was still summer, so why couldn’t she even hear the birdsong? Sure enough, as soon as Chu Ruoying stopped, five people rushed over from the woods on one side. All of them were dressed in black, but their faces were not covered. Thinking about it, they were very satisfied with the plan this time, so even I don't even want to cover my face.

"Who are you?" Chu Ruoying knew that it would be useless to ask, but she still asked subconsciously.

Sure enough, one of the big men stepped forward and laughed, "He is the one who wants to kill you!"

Chu Ruoying narrowed her eyes dangerously, holding the dagger in her sleeve with her right hand defensively, and said coldly, "How courageous!"

At this time, another man also rubbed his hands and came forward, looked at Chu Ruoying with uncertain eyes, and said with an evil smile: "Brother, this little girl is really good-looking, if she is willing to serve our brothers, we can give her Have a blast!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, a silver light flashed in front of him quickly, the man hurriedly dodged to the side, and when he came back to his senses, there was already a bloodstain on his face, and then he stabbed straight into the hole behind him. On the tree, Chu Ruoying looked at him coldly, "If you want to die, this concubine will not spare you!"

"Since you are ignorant, I will show no mercy. Brothers, come on!" The man called Big Brother waved his hand, and the people behind him rushed forward mercilessly. The dagger in Chu Ruoying's hand It was gone, and the silver needle was not worn on her body these days. Apart from a long silk, Chu Ruoying had no weapons that could be used to kill the enemy.

Seeing that Chu Ruoying was about to be defeated, a blue figure suddenly rushed over from a distance, and with a swing of his sword, the big man in front of Chu Ruoying fell to the ground. Chu Ruoying watched the blood flow out of the big man's neck slowly Only then did he settle down to look at the person who extended his helping hand.

Chu Ruoying watched the man's moves quietly, vaguely feeling a little familiar, when the man killed the last person, the big man suddenly screamed: "You can't kill me, if you do this, the master will not forgive you!" yours!"

"So, if you kill you, you won't have any worries!" The man swung his long sword mercilessly, and the big man fell to the ground with his eyes open, with blood on his neck like the people before him.

Chu Ruoying, who was still wondering who it was, suddenly realized after hearing his voice that it was him.
After the man in blue killed the big man, he glanced at Chu Ruoying indifferently, turned around and was about to leave, but Chu Ruoying suddenly smiled and said, "I didn't expect that when we saw each other today, the village owner at that time would be the same as before. It's different."

Only then did the man stop, squinting his eyes at Chu Ruoying, and said calmly, "I'm a scumbag in the lower district, I really don't know what the concubine Jin Shi wants?"

The smile on Chu Ruoying's face deepened when she heard the words, she looked at the man with a half-smile, and said, "How do you know that I belong to Princess Jin?"

The man's expression froze, he frowned, turned around, turned his back to Chu Ruoying, and said, "Anyway, you have admitted the wrong person. I still have important matters to attend to, so I will leave now!"

"Wait a minute!" Chu Ruoying stopped him again and asked, "Since I made a mistake, what do you call me?"

The person "Anonymous" froze, and after a while he uttered these words, then turned and left.

Chu Ruoying frowned and looked at his back. Even if Wuming didn't want to tell her his name, she didn't have to make such a bad excuse. Thinking about it, Chu Ruoying shook her head helplessly, and went forward to examine the big man's body carefully. , did not find any useful information, and then left the place.

After returning to the courtyard, Chu Ruoying gave Mo Yan instructions to clean up the place, and then went to find Prince Jing to check the time, and it was time to send Xia Zhiqi back.

As a result, as soon as Chu Ruoying walked out of the yard, she saw Li Xia running over in a panic. Li Xia's eyes turned red when she saw Chu Ruoying, "Shi Zifei, the winter solstice is gone!"

"Missing? What do you mean missing?" Chu Ruoying was startled when she heard the words, and then asked back.

Li Xia took a few breaths to calm himself down, his eyes were full of anxiety, and he said urgently: "After the slave girl went back, she thought that the winter solstice hadn't appeared for half a day, so she wanted to go to see the winter solstice, but found that the winter solstice was not in the room , I asked the people in the yard, and they all said that they saw Dongzhi go out, and I searched everywhere I could, but there was no shadow of Dongzhi, Shi Zifei, nothing will happen to her, right?"

Chu Ruoying quickly thought about what Li Xia said, and said in a deep voice, "You go to King Jing now and ask him to send Zhiqi back, and then you wait here for the son to come back, you understand?"

"What are you going to do, Shi Zifei?" After Li Xia nodded in a daze, she suddenly remembered that Chu Ruoying had left herself here, so what was she going to do.

Chu Ruoying said in a deep voice, "Of course I'm looking for Dongzhi to come back!"

"No! It's going to be dark today, if something happens to you, concubine, the servants will die!" Hearing this, Li Xia hurriedly stopped in front of Chu Ruoying, and refused.
