Chapter 704
Chapter 704
When Shi Luo returned to Jingting Courtyard, he saw Wei Congxi playing chess with Zhong Suiyan. Zhong Suiyan was smart, but in terms of medical skills, playing chess was no match for Wei Congxi.

"Wei Congxi, come here."

Zhong Suiyan was dissatisfied: "We haven't finished playing chess yet, so we can't leave."

Then after five steps, Wei Congxi ended the battle, leaving behind a dumbfounded Zhong Suiyan.

Back at the house, Wei Congxi saw that Shi Luo's expression was not very good, and was suspicious: "What happened?"

Shi Luo said: "It's Bai Xiuyuan..."

She said exactly what she said: "About Ji Ningshi, Bai Xiuyuan should have expected that something would happen to him this time."

Wei Congxi also frowned: "He was the one who took you to buy Ji Ningshi in Dazhou back then, so Bai Xiuyuan must have known something."

"You know Tang Feng?" Shi Luo asked.

Wei Congxi nodded: "The secret guard I sent you?"

Shi Luo nodded: "Before Tang Feng said that he had a younger brother who used to be a secret guard, but was sent to the quarry in the south after he lost his master. I asked him to go to the quarry to find his younger brother. Now the time to go It’s not short, but he hasn’t come back yet, I don’t know if the quarry he mentioned is the same one that Bai Xiu went away.”

Wei Congxi said: "Whether it's the same or not, it's very interesting. What kind of quarry needs a group of dark guards with high martial arts skills?"

Shi Luo breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Ji Ningshi really appeared.

"What should we do now? With such a big commotion, the palace will soon know, and Xuanyuan Can will know too. No matter what, we must find Bai Xiuyuan as soon as possible."

Wei Congxi said: "There is no other way, I will go there myself."

Shi Luo said, "I'll go too."

Wei Congxi frowned: "You can't go."

Shi Luo looked up at him: "I'm going, not only for Bai Xiuyuan, I don't want to be separated from you, not even for a day."

Wei Congxi breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

"But what about your illness?"

Wei Congxi asked.

Before Shi Luo could speak, the door was pushed in. Zhong Suiyan leaned against the door frame and said, "I'll go too."

……

The matter of the Bai family quickly spread to the palace, if it wasn't because Bai Xiuyuan was pressed down the mountain, Xiao Shen didn't take it seriously at all, only the crown prince thought there was something wrong with it.

Bai Xiuyuan, noble son of the capital, what are you going to do in a quarry if you have nothing to do?
At this time, Wei Congxi and Shi Luo came, father and son looked at each other and let them in.

Wei Congxi cut to the chase and said, "Father, the princess and I are going to the quarry."

Xiao Shen asked: "To save Bai Xiuyuan?"

Wei Congxi shook his head: "What Bai Xiuyuan? Is Bai Xiuyuan there too?"

He looked at the prince in confusion.

The prince raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing at the quarry in the south?"

Shi Luo said: "It's one of my hidden guards. More than a month ago, he had a brother who had been lost for many years in the quarry in the south. I promised him to let him save his brother, but now it has been more than a month. We Worrying about him other than what."

The prince couldn't hold back his joy: "A princess and a son-in-law go to the quarry for a secret guard?"

Shi Luo said seriously: "Brother, I think differently from you guys. Human life is at stake. Even a secret guard is my most powerful secret guard. Now that his whereabouts are unknown, I will naturally go looking for him. If I don't care Regardless, how will my subordinates obey me in the future?"

What Shi Luo said was so sincere that Wei Congxi almost believed it.

But the crown prince didn't believe it at all. This younger sister is very ghostly. If she wants to save the secret guard, she can just send someone there. What can she do if she can't carry it on her own shoulders or hands?
Xiao Shen squinted his eyes and said: "Since you are going, there is one thing that you should also help with."

"What's the matter?" Shi Luo was a little reluctant: "Father, we didn't go to play, we really went to find someone."

Xiao Shen said: "The Bai family wrote a letter just now, saying that the quarry in the south has collapsed, Bai Xiuyuan was crushed underneath, and his life and death are unknown. The hidden guards you are going to find may have something to do with this matter. Ziqing brought some Let's go and see together."

"This……"

Wei Congxi hesitated: "My son and Bai Xiuyuan are rivals in love, if my son goes, can the Bai family rest assured?"

"Bai Jiang and Bai Jinyuan also go together."

Bai Jiang is the second master of the Bai family, and Bai Jinyuan is the third son of Bai.

Wei Congxi said: "In this way, my son can rest assured."

Shi Luo said: "Father, why don't you take a doctor with you?"

Xiao Shen nodded: "Choose a young imperial doctor in the palace to go with..."

Wei Congxi said: "Father, Zhuzhu's illness also needs to be treated. Instead of this, let Zhong Suiyan go with him. I don't know what's going on there. Bringing a doctor with good medical skills may save a life. .”

The prince narrowed his eyes.

This is really a ghost.

Xiao Shen didn't want Zhong Sui to leave at first, but the crown prince said: "If the father is worried, why not let the second brother go with him, he has nothing to do in the capital during this time."

Xiao Shen glanced at the crown prince, nodded, "That's fine."

After Wei Congxi and Shi Luo left, Xiao Shen looked at the prince: "Is there any problem?"

The prince said: "I don't know yet, but Zhuzhu and Wei Congxi are too suspicious, I think this matter is weird."

Xiao Shen nodded: "It's really weird, there shouldn't be any trouble with the second child."

As for saving a hidden guard, Xiao Shen didn't believe it either.

The prince's eyes sank. He was not afraid of making troubles. The Nanyue royal family had not been at peace in recent years. Now that there are many things that are chaotic, it is much easier to deal with.

……

Shi Luo said: "My elder brother must have suspected something."

Wei Congxi: "This matter can't be hidden for long, but it doesn't matter if there are many people, it can also be concealed."

Shi Luo thinks so too.

In order to protect their safety, Xiao Shen deliberately photographed some people from the Imperial Forest Army. Xiao Yu himself brought his personal guards, as well as Shi Luo and Wei Congxi's people, and a group of people left the capital before dawn.

As soon as Bai Xiuyuan had an accident, Second Master Bai left the capital and went to the quarry.So only the third son Bai and members of the Bai family were traveling with him.

In the carriage, Shi Luo was still dozing off, Wei Congxi greeted Rumeng and looked at her, covered her with a quilt, got out of the carriage and changed to a horse.

He came to Xiao Yu's side and walked with Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu yawned.

Wei Congxi said: "If the second brother is sleepy, go and rest for a while."

Xiao Yu glanced at him carefully: "What do you and Zhuzhu want to do?"

Wei Congxi said: "Bai Xiuyuan helped us a lot in Dazhou. Although he didn't get along with me, Zhuzhu had some friendship with him. He still left the day before we got married. Zhuzhu felt that this matter had something to do with her."

Xiao Yu understood, but he still remembered what the prince said before leaving, so he expressed doubts about Wei Congxi's words.

"According to this speed, we can arrive before dark."

"So close?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "That mountain is called Nanshan. It's strange to say that there are so many mountains around, but Nanshan is the only one where not a single blade of grass grows. The mountain is full of stones. There are also many quarries in that area, which are specially used for the use of Kyoto. I have been there before. , is also familiar with it.”

It turned out to be like this, no wonder Xiao Yu was asked to come over.

Wei Congxi lowered his eyes.

Xiao Yu took a deep look at Wei Congxi.
