Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 184 Finding Clues

In Prince Xuan's mansion, Xiao Muyun looked at the news gathered from all directions with a serious face, frowning.

"Boom boom boom! Master, Ah Da is back!"

Xiao Muyun didn't lift his head, "Come in!"

"Crack!" The door opened, and Ah Da walked in, but stood aside without opening his mouth.

Xiao Muyun raised his head after finishing dealing with the matter in hand.

When he saw Ah Da's appearance, his eyelids still twitched, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Ah Da's appearance at this time was simply horrible.His clothes were torn, his hair was disheveled, his face was turned black by something, and there was a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

If it weren't for the clothes that could vaguely be seen as the guard uniform of the palace, and the badge still hanging around his waist, I'm afraid he would be arrested if he couldn't walk in front of Xiao Muyun with his image.

"What's the matter with you?"

Ah Da's face darkened, very helpless.He was going to deliver the little medicine bottle.

Unexpectedly, those people in the Princess's Mansion heard that he was from Prince Xuan's Mansion, and they shot directly without saying a word.Then he was surrounded and beaten by several people in Tsing Yi. Although it was not fatal, it was extremely miserable.The red-clothed one in particular threw something beside him, and his face became like this.

And she also said that if he washed his body with water, his whole body would turn black, so he could only go back to the palace like this if he couldn't make up his mind.

"Master, this subordinate failed to complete the task. The people from the princess' mansion immediately attacked me as soon as they heard that I was from Prince Xuan's mansion. The subordinate's skills are not as good as others, so I am ashamed of my master!"

The corner of Xiao Muyun's mouth twitched uncontrollably, it seemed that they really hated him.

"Okay, I got it! Go and see the doctor in the mansion!"

Ah Da heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly withdrew.

Xiao Muyun has been looking for Yunxi since he recovered his memory, but unfortunately there has been no news.

He was also deeply blaming himself, if he could rush into the yard that day, Yun Xi would not have disappeared.

The people in Tsing Yi refused to disclose any information to him, they even refused to accept the medicine bottle with Yun Xi's clue, which made Xiao Muyun very frustrated.

Although he was very sorry about the matter of Lin'an City, he did not regret it.At that time he could only do so.If there was not enough confusion, he would not be able to contact Mingfeng so easily, and the matter of Lin'an would not be resolved so quickly.

"Xi'er, I'm sorry, you must be very disappointed!"

With a sigh, Xiao Muyun returned to his seat and continued to get busy.

……

At this time, in the princess mansion, Shangguan Bailin looked at the angry red-clothed man holding his forehead and persuaded him, "You should lie down before you recover! If Yunxi comes back, I will definitely see you like this." angry."

"Miss Shangguan, I'm just a little angry, it's okay."

"Hongyi, what is that bottle? Why did you get so angry when you saw it?" Shangguan Bailin asked suspiciously.

"Speaking of this, I'm angry! I knew it was the master's thing at a glance. It contained the Mizong powder I prepared. If I could use the Mizong powder in time to find the master. It's a pity that we were trapped in the In the city, he was seriously injured again, so he failed to chase him out in time, which really wasted all of the master's intentions. Didn't they give me the bottle at this time to remind me of what happened in Lin'an City? How could I spare him!"

The red-clothed hand gently stroked the wound, trying to suppress the ups and downs of the chest to reduce the pain.

"Ah!" Shangguan Bailin sighed, and didn't try to persuade him any more.

After Hongyi calmed down, she remembered that Shangguan Bailin said that she had something to ask her, so she said, "Miss Shangguan, you said you have something to ask me, what exactly is it?"

Shangguan Bailin smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask you if there is any business in Hezhou."

"Hezhou?"

Hongyi frowned, thought for a while and said: "Yes, there are, but there are not many properties. For details, I have to ask Yingyue, she has been taking care of them. Why are you asking this? Do you want to buy something? Tell me , I will ask you to bring it back to you."

"No need!" Shangguan Bailin hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I just feel that something is wrong over there, and I want to ask you."

"What's the problem?" Hong Yi asked suspiciously.

"Red clothes, you know, I traveled around a while ago. I found a very strange thing in Hezhou. The days of paying taxes and money in various places are fixed, and there will be special escorts to enter Beijing, but it’s not like that in Hezhou.”

"I also accidentally met the silver guard team of Hezhou Yincao, but those people are not as cautious as the silver guard teams in other places. They put the silver car in the backyard of the restaurant and all went to drink. Does a guard I went to listen to them out of curiosity, but I heard a man complain that the boxes were all empty. The main thing is that he said that he had never seen a tael of silver since he joined the Silver Guard."

Hongyi turned pale with shock, and hurriedly said, "What? Is this true?"

Shangguan Bailin nodded.

Hong Yi is a very clever person, and he immediately thought of the loopholes in it.

"Miss Shangguan, if what you said is true, then this is not a small sum. Who would have the guts to embezzle so much money privately. And why didn't anyone in Beijing find out?"

This matter has been held in Shangguan Bailin's mind for a long time, and he has never told anyone about it because it is so important.At this time, after talking to Hongyi, she also became more clear in her heart.

"This is also where I am puzzled. And according to my previous investigation, this situation is not only in Hezhou, but in at least four or five states. I really don't know who has such a great ability!" Shangguan Bailin sighed.

Hongyi was silent for a while and said: "This is not a small matter, let the master know as soon as possible. Miss Shangguan has to continue to investigate this matter. I agree with you. There must be a big conspiracy!"

Shangguan Bailin hurriedly said: "I think the same way, and I feel a little uneasy recently. I will talk to Tsing Yi as soon as possible. No matter who Yun Xi contacts next, we'd better let her know as soon as possible."

At this moment, Tsing Yi walked in quickly from outside with a serious expression and a gloomy face.

"What happened?" Shangguan Bailin asked hurriedly.She has known Tsing Yi for so long, and this is the first time she has seen her like this.

Tsing Yi clenched his fists with both hands, suppressed his anger, and said: "Just now there is news that there is a change outside the city. A group of soldiers who besieged the city slaughtered two villages on the outskirts of Beijing. Now the gates of the city have been closed."

"Tucun?" Shangguan Bailin and Hongyi exclaimed at the same time.

"Those bastards! If they are caught by me, I will make them pay in blood!"

Tsing Yi's fist slammed on the table angrily, making a loud "Boom!"

Hong Yi was also furious, and said, "Master Hou will not let those people go! Don't worry!"

"What's the situation outside the city?" Shangguan Bailin asked again.

Tsing Yi thought for a while and said, "Master Hou has ordered the city gate to be closed. The people in the vicinity also want to hide in the capital at this time. Master Hou dared not open the gate for fear of fraud, so he built a shelter next to the gate. I don't know what's going on now!"

At this time, Hongyi suddenly said: "Have all the food that the master gave you come in?"

Tsing Yi also froze, and hurriedly ran out.

After half a cup of tea, Tsing Yi came back with a blue face.

"We still have nearly [-] dans of food blocked outside the city, and two large carts of medicinal materials. They probably also heard the news at this time, and they should have been sent to Zhuangzi. It's just that it's too close to the rebels, it's dangerous! "

After Tsing Yi finished speaking, the faces of several people changed.

"We can't act rashly, I will tell Lord Hou, lest something happen to spoil the important matter of Lord Hou." Tsing Yi said.

"Be careful, go and come back!"
