Rebirth as Hou Menfu

Chapter 89

Yingxiu and Qi Haoming glanced at each other, Yingxiu ordered another pair of bowls and chopsticks to be served, and asked Baoqin to drag all the food to the front hall, and helped Qi Haoming go to the front hall together.

Qiao Jinze saw that they were coming, and the anxiety on her face remained unchanged, "Hao Ming, I want to borrow Zhuo Ye from you to find someone."

When Qi Haoming heard this, his expression became serious. Only Ding Wang Chengwang and Qiao Jinze knew about Zhuo Ye's extraordinary kung fu. Qiao Jinze would not ask him to come unless it was absolutely necessary, "What happened?"

"Shangguan Yirong is gone." Qiao Jinze sighed, "I went back with Shiya one after the other last night. On the way they encountered a mess, Shangguan Yirong took advantage of the chaos and was robbed. This is related to Miss Shangguan. The Shangguan government does not want to report to officials to attract attention."

"How can a good capital encounter chaos in the capital? Hold the qin and go ask Zhuo Ye to come over." Yingxiu went to call someone with the qin, sat down and poured a cup of tea for Qiao Jinze, "cousin, speak slowly, after all What's going on."

"After the banquet in Qiao's mansion, Shiya often came back to Qiao's mansion, because Ms. Shangguan was also there, and she was not familiar with the ladies in the capital, so Shiya brought her here with her. After coming a few times, she became acquainted with us. Eldest brother and some of his former classmates were having a party in Wenxian Building yesterday, Shi Ya and I happened to pass by and went up to sit for a while, but in the end we sent them back in the carriage, and something happened."

Wenxian Tower is located in the north of the city, which is much more open than the capital city. There is indeed a large horse farm there, but at this time of night, the horses that are usually released have already entered the pen, so how could there be a disorderly horse? .

Qiao Shiya stayed up all night anxiously, clamoring to go out to find someone by herself, but the capital is so big, if someone intentionally did it, how could she find it, Shangguan Yirong is still a lady who has not left the court, if this matter is reported to the official, When the time comes, even if the person is found unscathed, they will be rumored to be very embarrassing.

"Ever wondered who moved the hand?"

"Sir Shangguan is not an official here. Besides, this is not a carriage in the palace. It's really hard to tell whose family it is at night. But it only robs Miss Shangguan, but Shiya has nothing to do with it." Qiao Jinze Thinking of the horse chaos, I felt very strange.

"If you are so old and don't know who did it, how do you find it?" Qi Haoming asked Zhuo Ye to follow Qiao Jinze back, and there was no news until dark.

The next day, Zhuo Ye, who hadn't slept all night, returned to the Qi Mansion. There was no news of Shangguan Yirong. The carriage carrying her was abandoned near the horse farm. Only a headgear of Shangguan Yirong was found on the carriage. I checked all the houses around the racecourse, but found no trace of them.

Yingxiu fed Zhuang Zhuang and ate breakfast, and asked Zhuo Ye to take herself to the Shangguan General's Mansion. Shiya didn't sleep for two nights and was very haggard, "Xiuer, what should I do? It's been two days , Yirong hasn’t heard from her all this time, she blames me, if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s not safe for a maid to follow the carriage at night, I wouldn’t have separated the two carriages from her, so nothing would happen.”

Shiya cried in Yingxiu's arms, she blamed herself for two whole days, if something happened to Yirong, what face would she, Qiao Shiya, have to stay in Shangguan's house.

"Don't blame yourself, someone has already followed your group, even if you are in the same carriage, something will happen, think about it, where have you taken Yirong these days, now this headless chicken is not good Look for it." Yingxiu patted her shoulder comfortingly.

"I often go to see grandma these days. Yirong doesn't know many ladies in the capital, so I took her to Qiao's house for a walk, and I went to elder brother's place yesterday, but I didn't go to anything else," Shiya said. She wiped her face with the towel handed over by the servant girl, thinking with red and swollen eyes.

"Have you met anyone?"

"I didn't meet anyone. You also know that there are only a few people in Qiao's family. When I went there, I chatted with the eldest brother and the second brother and drank tea."

"Big brother is there every time I go back?" Yingxiu paused, suddenly thought of something, and asked Shiya.

Shi Ya was also taken aback by her, and nodded, "Brother recently rested at home for a few days because of his transfer, so he was there when we went there, what's wrong?"

A bad premonition floated in Yingxiu's heart, she went outside and called Zhuo Ye and asked, "Did you visit Zhang's house yesterday?"

"Not yet, I just asked the houses near Xianlou to take a look, and there was nothing unusual."

"Go to Zhang's house right away to check and see what Zhang Yan has been doing these days." Zhuo Ye quickly left Shangguan General's Mansion, and the premonition in Yingxiu's heart continued to grow. The aunt who arrived, how jealous Zhang Yan was that there were other women next to her big cousin.

"Xiu'er, what did you ask Big Brother about? Does it have something to do with Big Brother?" Back in the room, Shiya pulled Yingxiu and hurriedly asked, Yingxiu suppressed the worry in her eyes and smiled, "It's just a guess, I Let Zhuo Ye check it out, take a break, and if you continue to toss around like this, when Yirong comes back, you should be exhausted."

"How could I be able to sleep? The second aunt fainted after hearing the news, Xiu'er, if there is something wrong with Yirong, I..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? What can you do when you are so sick here? Take a good rest and help find her when you are refreshed." Yingxiu hurriedly covered her mouth, for fear that she would say anything .

Yingxiu, who Shangguanling couldn't persuade, persuaded Shiya to sleep, and walked out of the room lightly. Shangguanling, who hadn't slept for a few days, was also in a bad mood, "Cousin, please come here."

"Second cousin brother-in-law, you should also take a break. If you keep looking like this, don't tire yourself out first." Yingxiu knew that no amount of comfort would be futile at this moment, and hoped that the guessing in her heart could give them some usefulness. I also hope that there will be good news for Zhuo Ye.

Near noon, in a small garden in the northern suburbs of the capital, several strong men stood outside the woodshed in the backyard. A dwarf man in black robe appeared outside the woodshed. A woman's voice sounded, "Open the door."

Finally, a gleam of light was revealed in the dim woodshed. A figure shrank in a corner of the woodshed, raised his head to look at the door, and his eyes were still a little uncomfortable because of the bright light.

The figure in the black robe covered most of the light, the door closed again, and the man in the black robe slowly approached the corner, looking down at her from above.

Shangguan Yirong did not dare to move, and slowly lowered her head. Her hands were already numb due to the rope tied behind her. It had been two days since she was arrested. She woke up and found herself in this woodshed. Nothing was violated.

A "slap" sounded in the firewood room, and a slender hand slapped her face viciously, "Bitch, I want you to seduce a man."

Half of her face became red and swollen quickly, Shangguan Yirong's eyes flashed with fear, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly, "Who are you?"

A hand was stretched out from the black robe to untie the outer strap of the robe, and the black robe fell to the ground. Zhang Yan leaned down slightly and raised Shangguan Yirong's chin with one hand, "You don't know who I am, but I know who you are. Who is the little bitch?"

"Ma'am, I haven't been in the capital for long, I think there must be some misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Zhang Yan interrupted her, with a hint of sarcasm on her red lips, "I just came to the capital and soon I will hook up with other people's husbands."

Shangguan Yirong looked at the almost crazy smile on her face, closed her mouth and stopped talking, Zhang Yan saw her like this, her hands worked harder, pinching her chin with blood marks, "Stop talking? That’s admitting to seducing someone else’s husband.”

Shangguan Yirong was in pain from being pinched, she tilted her head slightly, "Madam, I really don't know what you are talking about."

Another slap sounded, Zhang Yan felt the tingling sensation from her palm, and smiled happily, "You know, you go to my house over and over again just to seduce my husband, I tell you it's impossible !"

Just as Shangguan Yirong was about to refute, she suddenly stopped talking. This time she returned to Beijing, the only place she went to again and again was Qiao's house. The woman with a ferocious smile in front of her was the wife of the eldest brother of the Qiao family who had returned to her mother's house to recuperate?
"Why, do you remember who I am?" Zhang Yan suddenly moved closer to her, leaning against her face and said coldly, "As I said, that's my husband. Don't think about Xiao Xiang, whoever you are?" If you dare to think about it, I will kill her, kill her."

Zhang Yan's words were more like muttering to herself, Shangguan Yirong was startled, trying not to let her expression reveal her panic, she swallowed and said slowly, "Ma'am, you misunderstood, no one will miss your husband , he will always be yours alone, only yours."

Zhang Yan glanced at her and raised her head, "You are very knowledgeable about current affairs." Then she put on a black robe, unable to tell who it was, "There are quite a few people looking for you in the capital now, guess what? I have been looking for you everywhere, haha, they will never guess that you are here."

Shangguan Yirong remained silent, watching her leave the firewood room, there was a sound of locking the door, and Zhang Yan's order, "Look out, don't let her run away!"

Shangguan Yirong shrank back into the corner, she couldn't beg that lady to let her go, but this place is so remote, will her parents find her...

When it was almost evening, Zhang Yan's carriage was heading towards the small back door of Zhang's house. The maid at the door looked left and right to make sure that there was no one else, so she helped Zhang Yan, who was wearing a black robe, to get off the carriage. After taking off the black robe and throwing it to the maid behind him, he quickly went back to the house and waited for his father or mother to come to check on him who was confined.

Zhuo Ye climbed the tree and stood there for a long time, until the coachman led the cart away, and then followed the cart until he arrived at a carriage rental place near Zhang's house.

Zhuo Ye took advantage of the coachman going to drink, carefully looked at the tires of the carriage, and quickly left back to Qi Mansion.

After hearing what Zhuo Ye said, Yingxiu hurriedly sent someone to find Qiao Jinxian and Qiao Jinze. Mrs. Zhang came back from the back door at such a late hour and was still wearing a black robe. It was suspicious. The unique loess on the muddy mountain road in the east of the city, Zhang Yan was not imprisoned by the Zhang family, how could she freely enter and leave the Zhang family.

"Big cousin, this matter should have something to do with my cousin." Yingxiu looked at Qiao Jinxian's disbelief and said, while Qi Haoming took the conversation for her, "Zhuo Ye went to Zhang's house today. , my cousin came back in the evening, and she was dressed differently from usual."

The disappearance of Shangguan Yirong was kept a secret, only Shangguan's family and them knew about it, Qi Jinxian was silent, he couldn't speak, if it was really because of him, then Yan'er must have something to do with it ...
