take a wife to support the family

Chapter 418
A dozen or so children disappeared, the adults were crying and dizzy, and some timid ones were looking for life and death at that time. Those who were strong on weekdays, held back their tears and sorrow, hurriedly told others, and forced themselves to look for them everywhere.

During this search, I found a few: some went to playmates' house, some fell asleep on the thatched roof, and some sneaked behind the stage to watch the actors make up. The little dolls are naughty, and the adults reminded them not to mess up. Even if they ran, they couldn't hold back their curiosity, and if they didn't make a mistake, they would run away without seeing anyone.

The grown-ups of the family grabbed the dolls they had just found, and were about to beat them with their hands. Before they dropped their hands, the grown-ups couldn’t hold them. They hugged the dolls and cried bitterly: "My flesh, you will lose it!" , what am I going to do?"

They were crying loudly here, and others persuaded: "At least I didn't get lost, take them home quickly, so that I can make something to eat to calm the shock."

At this time, the stage stopped early, and the theater troupe panicked. They came to perform a play, how could they expect such a thing to happen?There used to be some actors in the theater troupe who were kidnapped and sold. Seeing this scene, they all said: "Although I can't remember when I was a child, I think I was kidnapped and sold several times, and my parents are also hurt like this."

He also started to cry, and the class leader hurriedly comforted him: "You are capable now, big or small, so you can save a fortune. In a few years, you can't sing anymore, you can take in apprentices, and marry a wife. You don't need everything. It’s also worth wandering around when I was a child.”

You Ke, who found the children, had a few dolls, and they didn't find them until dawn. Song Haonian and his servants shouted and searched everywhere, but there was no news.

Song Haonian's eyes were red from suffering, and he came back and said to Baihe: "There are quite a few people who said they saw He Zhen and the young master of the Liu family, but they couldn't remember which direction they were going."

The children who were really lost this time were Hezhen, Yuanyuan, Brother Rong, the young master of the Liu Mansion, and a little girl named Yuer. Yuer's family was also quite rich. Nian was not very familiar with him, this time he searched for someone all night, and his throat was full of smoke, so he came back with Song Haonian to drink some water.

Baihe and Zhaoren also didn't close their eyes all night, and said to Song Haonian: "We brought the children back yesterday, and we finally managed to coax them to sleep. Sister Zhi couldn't sleep well, so she only closed her eyes an hour ago."

Even Ruchun felt that the atmosphere was not right, and the other children knew that something terrible had happened, and they were all very anxious, scared and sad.Especially Han Zhi, she watched her elder brother run away from her eyes, now knowing that her elder brother would disappear at that moment, she wished to exchange herself for her elder brother to come back.

Zhaoren gritted his teeth and said, "Second brother, this matter cannot be delayed any longer. Since they are not in the town, outsiders must have sneaked in and taken them away. We must get a charter quickly."

Song Haonian nodded, when the accident happened, someone reported it to Mr. Liu, and he and Mr. Liu discussed two things at that time: the first one is to guard all the faces in the town, even the townspeople are not allowed to go out Walk around, so as not to cooperate with people inside and outside, and do abduction and trafficking business that costs thousands of dollars.

In the same way as the second time, two trusted servants were sent to the county to report the case, and the county was asked to send yamen servants to search around, and wrote a letter to the surrounding counties, asking for cooperation in the inspection, so as to prevent the traffickers from going elsewhere.

Zhaoren said: "The disposition of logic is considered complete, but it is different from Zhen's identity, and Jinyiwei still needs to be used."

"I'll send news to Jin Yiwei right now." Because Song Haonian's family is in Taiping County, the imperial court has always had Jin Yiwei in the county who can contact them. They must be dispatched for such a major event. When necessary, all Tiqi in the Ming Dynasty will be mobilized stand up.

Hezhen is the eldest son of the prince and the grandson of the emperor of Daming. Not to mention the feelings and expectations of the royal family for him, but the emperor and the prince have spent countless efforts on teaching these years, and Daming cannot bear the pain of losing Hezhen.

Today, the emperor has been in power for ten years, and countless natural disasters and man-made disasters have never knocked him down. Only this incident may really defeat the old dragon on the throne, causing him heartache, and even collapsed.

Song Haonian saw that his big nephew, Hezhen, was no different from Tongru. His heart ached so badly that his body was so weak that he was still not fully recovered. He stayed up all night, talking to his wife and sister, I was about to go out to look for someone again, but when I stood up, my eyes went dark.

Fortunately, Lily quickly reached out to support him and told him to sit on the edge of the kang, the barbarian girl quickly brought honey water up, Song Haonian sipped a couple of sips, and said: "It's just a little bit of a hurry, it's nothing serious."

Lily burst into tears and cried, "We are all in a hurry, but you have to take care of your own body. I'll take a message to Jin Yiwei. You should sleep for a while."

Zhaoren also said: "Second brother, take a break, there are still many things that require you to come forward."

Song Haonian couldn't bear his daughter-in-law's tears, and lay in the house with his eyes closed and his clothes on. He was so anxious that he was lying there, wishing he could fly to Hezhen and rescue his nephew.

Baihe and Zhaoren sent people to notify the Jinyiwei to search for human traffickers, and saw Liu's servants knocking on the door from door to door asking them if they had seen any outsiders in the past few days, and what the strangers they saw looked like, Zhaoren said: "This is also a person. way."

Here Song Haonian had not rested for an hour, Yang Lin arrived with a large number of yamen servants, and said in the first sentence: "Our lord has written about the surrounding prefectures and counties. Whenever we see children with similar age, appearance, and clothes, we must ask them. Will never let go."

Lily said: "You have worked hard. We intercepted a few strangers in the town. We can't ask anything, so we have to ask you." Song Haonian was still sleeping in the east chamber, she spoke softly, for fear of making noise Wake up your husband.

Unexpectedly, Song Haonian came out of the east chamber wiping his face. He didn't fall asleep at all, and said to Yang Lin deeply: "The opera troupe, flower boat team, and lion and dragon dance team are all guarded at the other side of the Liu residence. The strangers who came to see the excitement were also locked up together. I'm afraid those individual traffickers have run away, and these people don't recognize them, but they must not be missed."

Yang Lin promised loudly that he would go to interrogate those strangers immediately, and Zhaoren urged: "Be quick, Brother Zhen is related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty, so there must be no mistakes."

This night, Zhaoren suffered a hundred times more than others: If she hadn't taken Hezhen away from Beijing, and Hezhen had lived in the Forbidden City, how could such a thing have happened?

She hated herself for not being able to think ahead and rule out dangers in advance, and she also hated herself for not being able to see through the details, so she realized something was wrong at the time and brought the traffickers to justice.

Yang Lin's knees were a little weak, he knew about Hezhen's identity from Yingchun, but knowing it was one thing, but hearing the princess talk about it in person was another.

Lily suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly said: "Bounty Yang, come back, I have something to say!"

"You must not reveal Hezhen's identity when you are asking about the case, or chasing down the traffickers, or recovering the child."

Yang Lin was taken aback: "Why?" He was still thinking about throwing out Hezhen's identity. After this, these people in the town will panic to some extent, so he can investigate the case.

Baihe said: "Those individual traffickers definitely didn't know Hezhen's identity, so they took him away. Let's act faster, there is still room for him to recover. I'm afraid that if Hezhen's identity is leaked, and they know that they have kidnapped the emperor's grandson, the court will definitely take him away." I will not let them go, and I will kill He Zhen."

Those individual traffickers never saw the law of the king, but they also knew that they were afraid of the majesty of the imperial court. If He Zhen was just a rich man in their eyes, he would be a fat sheep that could be sold for money.But if he knew that Hezhen was the emperor's grandson, and his group couldn't escape, he might kill Hezhen and destroy his corpse.

Surprised, Yang Lin quickly said yes, changed his plan in his mind, cupped his hands and said, "I'll go and ask about the case."

The people under Yang Linhe's team are all familiar policemen, they are very intimidating in public uniforms, and they have various methods, such as intimidation, coercion, or temptation, but in half a day, how many questions can they really ask? something to do:

The first thing, Song Xiuxiu reported to the police, saying that her third brother Song Haojie was not at home, probably he was the one who took the children away.Song Xiuxiu is also the one who suffers, her words naturally have weight, and Yang Lin knows that Song Haojie is not a good thing, so he is suspicious of him immediately.

The next time, I asked others, and they all said that Song Haojie had attracted a few strangers to eat, drink, and steal in the town these days, and when something happened, none of these people left.

Now it seems that Song Haojie is the most suspected.The Liu residence sent another message, saying that they had already found out the appearance of Song Haojie's friends, Yang Lin followed the order at that time, and whenever he saw these people in the county and neighboring counties, he had to report to the officials immediately.

In the end, for example, there were a few thieves hidden in the dragon and lion dance team. Whatever it looks like, you can take it away.

The Lantern Festival has suddenly turned into a disaster, and everyone is upset.Song Haonian, Liu Yi and the others also traveled all over the world, and they are familiar with each other. Liu Yi said: "Officials have official careers, and bandits have gangsters' ways. We are in business, and we also have people who are well-informed. I will also go out to inquire."

This time, Baihe couldn't stop Song Haonian, so he and Liu Yi had to pick up a few brothers and go out to find out the news: all the way to the east, all the way to the west, and then all the way to the north, the south of Qingliu Town is Baishui River and Dashan, Presumably the traffickers would not run there, but they still asked a few hunters, and after hearing that no outsiders had passed by, they chased each other in their own directions.

Song Haonian went out to find the whereabouts of the children, and Baihe and Zhaoren had to take care of the children at home. Lily saw that the children were really panicked, and neither dared to tell them the truth, nor could they tell all the lies—these children were very smart , lies must be concealed from them.

Lily discussed with Zhaoren and said to them: "Brother Zhen met a bad person, and your second uncle has gone to save him. In a few days, he will come back with Brother Zhen. If you want Brother Zhen, you can Think about waiting for him to come back and give him something one by one."

This is so easy to coax a few children.
