Chapter 164 Saying that she was seriously ill and died last night!
Xie Yixiao was worried about Gu You being taken away, and didn't know what would happen to the Changning Marquis Mansion if Gu You suddenly disappeared.
She tossed and turned throughout the night, restless, until the sky outside became a little brighter, and she fell asleep.
After having a quick bite in the morning, I asked someone to prepare a carriage and go to the Changning Marquis Mansion to have a look.
There is already chaos at the Changning Marquis Mansion.
Yesterday, Nian Gongzi, Qingkong Bixiao and others waited for a long time, but they didn't see Gu You coming out. They were really worried, so they sent Qingkong and Bixiao to the backyard to take a look. In the end, they only found the female steward sitting in the room drinking tea without Gu You.
quiet.
When asked, she said that Gu You was changing clothes in the bedroom, but no one answered the door. When she kicked the door open, she found that the person was gone.
The female steward was so frightened that her face turned pale.
Everyone did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly sent someone to inform the Changning Marquis Mansion. Mr. Nian also personally returned to the Nian family and asked his father to help send someone to find someone.
However, Mr. Nian had no time to spare at this time. At that time, Li Chongyang was assassinated in Chunfeng Tower and someone died. He, the newly appointed governor of Jingzhao, needed to deal with it. In the end, he had to arrange a team of people to follow Mr. Nian to find the person.
.
Mr. Nian was a little dissatisfied with this marriage. Gu You had already engaged once before, and said that he was suddenly seriously ill and could not get married, so he asked his sisters to marry him. Once engaged, it was already engaged. Naturally, it was not as good as before.
.
He just thought that Gu You used to be a famous noblewoman in the imperial city with an excellent reputation, and he had been friends with Marquis Changning for many years, so he agreed.
But now that something like this happened is really disgusting, and it was his son who took him out, and he couldn't explain anything if something happened. It was really annoying.
Since Gu You was a girl, her sudden disappearance could not be reported to the outside world. People from the Changning Marquis Mansion and the Nian family could only search quietly. Mr. Nian also followed the search all night, but until the next morning, there was no trace.
A little bit of news.
When Xie Yixiao came, Mrs. Zhou was sitting aside crying, Gu Zhixuan was sitting on the side to persuade her, Qingkong Bixiao and the female steward of the embroidery shop were kneeling on the ground uneasily, Young Master Nian was standing aside, looking haggard and worried, Mr. Jiang was sitting there.
Sitting upright, her expression wasn't very good, so she reached out and pressed her eyebrows.
"Why are you here?" Mrs. Jiang waved her over. Xie Yixiao glanced at her with a puzzled look, "I'll come over to see grandma when I have some free time. What's going on?"
Zhou didn't hide anything from her, she wiped her tears and cried softly: "Your eldest cousin and Mr. Nian went out last night. I don't know what happened, but they disappeared."
Nian Hansheng quickly apologized: "It's all Hansheng's fault for not taking good care of Miss Gu."
Jiang pointed at Nian Hansheng and said: "This is the eldest son of the Nian family, and the person your eldest cousin wanted to betrothed to before. Just call... call me Mr. Nian. This is my granddaughter. Her surname is
Thanks."
It has not been long since the Nian family returned to the Imperial City, and they still know some important things. There is a granddaughter named Xie in the Changning Marquis Mansion. She is a girl from the Xie family of the Xie Pavilion. She is the thirteenth. Her parents are gone. She was given a gift by the emperor not long ago.
Married to the ninth son of Duke Rong.
Young Master Nian bowed his hands and saluted: "I've seen Miss Xie."
Xie Yi looked at him with no trace of a smile, then took it back and returned the gift: "Well, Mr. Nian is well."
This young man was born quite well, with a tall and straight figure, a handsome face, and a certain gentleness, like a noble man who had read poetry and books.
Gu Zhixuan said: "Mr. Nian, you don't need to blame yourself for this. You have been tired all night. Go back and rest. When there is any news, I will send someone to inform Mr. Nian."
"Of course, if you need Mr. Nian's help for anything, please ask Mr. Nian to help."
Nian Hansheng saw that it was his own family who might have something to say, so he nodded: "Then I will leave first. If there is anything needed, just ask Prince Gu, and Hansheng will never say goodbye."
Gu Zhixuan stood up to see Nian Hansheng off, but Nian Hansheng said: "No, no, just send someone to guide me. Prince Gu should give more advice to the Madam Tai and Madam Hou in your mansion."
Gu Zhixuan didn't care about this with him. He nodded and arranged for someone to send him away. After the maid serving beside him also withdrew, Gu Zhixuan knocked on the edge of the table and frowned.
I was busy looking for someone last night and didn't examine it carefully. Nian Hansheng was here again this morning, so it was hard to mention this matter. But if I think about it carefully, it's obvious what the truth is.
I'm afraid she ran away on her own.
Gu Zhixuan asked the female steward: "You said she said she wanted to relieve herself at that time, and said her clothes were dirty, so you asked you to give her a set of my clothes. Later, you went to change clothes with her, and you waited in the bright hall. She
Changing clothes in the dormitory and then disappearing?"
The female steward nodded vigorously: "That's right, Master, I really didn't lie. I don't know why the eldest girl disappeared?"
The housekeeper was also very scared. She really didn't expect that even if the older girl went to her place to relieve herself and change some clothes, things could be solved.
If something really happened, it would be a small matter if she lost her job, and it was hard to say whether her life could be saved.
The female steward began to cry as she spoke.
Gu Zhixuan asked Qingkong and Bixiao: "You were waiting at the store, but you saw some young man wearing a man's robe coming out?"
Bixiao was trembling, and she was extremely scared: "Slave, the slaves didn't pay attention. There were so many people coming and going at that time, including both men and women in the store."
"This slave didn't pay attention..."
When Jiang heard this, his whole face turned dark.
Now, there is still something I don’t understand.
Gu Zhixuan asked someone to come up and take the three people down. When the three people left, Jiang couldn't help but slap the table: "This is unreasonable! This is unreasonable! She ran away again! She ran away again!"
Jiang felt a fire burning in her heart and was so angry that she almost fainted: "This is simply unreasonable. There is no girl like her in our Changning Marquis Mansion! Immediately send someone to tell the outside world that she was seriously ill and died last night.
Got it!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to Mrs. Jiang: "Mother-in-law, it won't happen. If we say she is gone, she will never come back again. She will never come back!"
Jiang was furious: "If you can't come back, you can't come back! Our Changning Marquis Mansion doesn't have such a shameless girl who doesn't understand the rules! I would rather she were dead!"
Mrs. Zhou quickly hugged Mrs. Jiang's legs: "No, no, mother-in-law, she just had a sudden change of mind. She will change it. She, she..."
Mrs. Zhou started to cry as she spoke, "No, we can't say that she is gone. If we say that, she will be able to have a good marriage and a good future in the future. Her whole life will be ruined!"
"Mother-in-law, please let your daughter-in-law spare her just this once..."
