The prince is sick: it is too enchanting to marry the princess

Chapter 1076
Besides Sima Jingxuan, Zheng Qi has found some clues.

"Someone in the palace reported that a few guards at the South Gate were missing." Zheng Qi was thoughtful, "I wonder if this may be related to their disappearance."

Long You's heart beat wildly a few times, but quickly calmed down again.

He said calmly: "It's just a few guards, what has it to do with them?"

Zheng Qi frowned, and kept rubbing his chin with his right hand: "I can't say it, but it feels a little strange. Think about it, after that fire, the only change in the palace was the disappearance of those guards. It's the only clue we have right now."

The more Zheng Qi thought about it, the more suspicious he became, so he turned around and walked towards the south gate: "No, I have to investigate further."

Long You's face became gloomy and ugly, no, this matter must not be allowed to continue like this.Otherwise, he will be found out sooner or later.

Long You hurriedly chased after him, and Zheng Qi gathered all the guards guarding the south gate to interrogate them one by one.

Everyone's rhetoric is the same, the missing people belong to the same team, and they are responsible for the early morning sentry.

But when other people came to change shifts, they found that the south gate was empty, and the guards guarding the gate didn't know where they went.

Zheng Qi murmured: "This is strange."

If Nangongyan had forced his way out from the south gate, it would have alarmed the other patrolling personnel, but they disappeared quietly together with the guards here.

There must be something tricky about it.

At this time, a person in eunuch uniform suddenly said, "Slave, I have something I don't know whether I should say or not."

Zheng Qi swept over with sharp eyes: "Say!"

The eunuch was taken aback by him, and then quickly stammered: "It's nothing serious. It was just when the servant and a few people who lived with him got up to send Gong Tong out of the palace that day, they found that Gong Tong was missing. The slave I don't know if there is any connection between the two."

Something flashed through Zheng Qi's mind, he grabbed the eunuch's lapel and asked, "Are these Gong barrels usually sent out of the palace by you?"

The eunuch nodded again and again: "Yes. But when the servant went to the south gate, those Gong barrels had disappeared. The servant doesn't know what's going on!"

Zheng Qi already had a rough idea in his mind, and he said harshly, "If this is the case, why didn't you say it earlier!"

"The slave really doesn't know. The slave just thinks that one more thing is worse than one less thing. It wasn't until I heard that some guards guarding the gate were missing that I..."

"Hmph!" Zheng Qi pushed him away, "You're still ashamed to say, if it wasn't for you, maybe we would have caught them long ago. Someone, drag him down for me!"

"My lord, spare your life! This servant knows his mistake! Please forgive me!"

Several guards rushed up and held him down, and then dragged him away.

A killing intent flashed in Long You's eyes, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"What do you think about Zheng Qi?"

Zheng Qi said with a cold face: "Isn't this matter obvious? They must have hidden in the bucket and then sneaked out of the palace."

No wonder they almost turned over every inch of land in the palace, but no one was found.It turned out that they had already escaped from the palace.

Zheng Qipi smiled and said: "It's actually hidden in the Gong bucket, the two of them are really flexible."

Long You also pretended to be a little surprised: "No way, the two of them are dignified people, how could they do such a humiliating thing?"

"Hmph, I can't do anything! Just to escape, I will do whatever I can. Don't tell me, I really admire the two of them now!"

Zheng Qi thought for a while and said, "No, I have to report the news to the Lord first."

Long You hurriedly grabbed him: "This matter has not yet been fully settled, so why don't you go and sue the Lord so recklessly?"

"What's wrong, or can you find a more reasonable explanation?" Zheng Qi shook off his hand, "Don't stop me, they have escaped from the palace now, posting the imperial list to arrest them things are urgent.”

Otherwise, all of them have slipped into the sky, how can we catch them then?

Zheng Qi left in a hurry, but Long You couldn't stop him.

Long You thought to himself, this is a terrible situation, what if they suspect him later?
No, I absolutely can't just sit and wait for death like this, I have to think of a way.

After hearing Zheng Qi's words, Sima Jingxuan was so angry that he detained all the guards guarding the south gate on the spot.

Sima Jingxuan said coldly: "Let them investigate carefully again, maybe those servants can spit out something useful."

Although it is almost certain that the two of them are no longer in the palace, Sima Jingxuan is still full of doubts.

For example, how did Nan Gongyan and the others easily reach the South Gate while avoiding the numerous eyes and ears?

He always felt in his heart that things were not so simple, there must be someone hiding in the dark and not being found out.

"Master, this subordinate has ordered people to post the imperial list in the city. This subordinate believes that there will be clues under the huge reward."

"Well, you go."

Sima Jingxuan thought, I don't believe it anymore, the two of you can still find out in my place?
……

In the hall, Xuanjizi drank the porridge quietly, his face almost buried in the bowl.

Ji Qingxue didn't understand, so she whispered to Nangongyan, "What's wrong with Senior Xuan?"

Nan Gongyan smiled, "Probably because I was hurt too deeply."

"Oh." Ji Qingxue had an expression of "I understand".

This should be the most torturous meal Xuanjizi has ever eaten in most of his life.

After Nangongyan's vivid description, he can probably imagine how drunk he was last night.

Oh, what a shame!There is no guarantee for the evening festival!
Ji Qingxue said tentatively: "Senior Xuan, you last night..."

Xuan Jizi raised his head suddenly, and hurriedly said: "I was really rude last night, and I need to trouble you and the little bastard to take care of me."

Ji Qingxue smiled: "It's nothing, this is what we should do."

"Uh, hehe..." Xuanjizi laughed awkwardly.

Ji Qingxue asked with concern: "You drank so much wine last night, you didn't feel a headache when you woke up this morning. If you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me. I know a little bit about medicine, and I still have this ability."

"Okay, okay." Xuanjizi nodded repeatedly.

Nangongyan sniggered beside him, and Xuanjizi glared at him secretly.

——Little bastard, you have to laugh!

——I just laughed, old bastard, you have the ability to come and bite me!

All in all, as long as he encounters a mystery, Nangongyan will not live normally.
