Seeing this scene, Huang Ying couldn't help but said, "Oh, sister Xiaoyue, this is not easy. After dinner, I will accompany you to Mr. Zhu's house to ask if there is any news about the old Prime Minister."
After everyone's persuasion, Feng Xiaoyue reluctantly took a few bites.
But it was obvious that Feng Xiaoyue's mind was no longer on the food. After eating, the dinner was simply cleaned up, and Feng Xiaoyue went out.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xiaobei hurriedly followed. Huang Ying wanted to accompany him out, but was grabbed by the Lotus Cult Master.
The Lotus Master arranged for his personal disciple Jasmine to follow him.
Seeing her arrangement like this, Huang Ying asked in confusion and surprise.
"Senior sister, why don't you let me accompany you? Neither brother Xiaobei nor sister Xiaoyue know how to do martial arts..."
"Ah, I have Jasmine as a purchasing agent. This is also the capital city. It's just getting dark. There are no evil people out there. It's better to go less often. Don't you think the three of you will be embarrassed if you go?"
After listening to the words of the Lotus Leader, Huang Ying helplessly grinned and said, "Then you mean that it is unnecessary for me to go."
The Lotus Master shook his head, "No, I left you here because I have something to say."
"I have already hidden Fang Zheng. Even if they dig up the ground of Wannian City, they will never find his whereabouts."
"I'm leaving at some point, so I have to tell you where Fang Zheng is. If anything happens to me, someone will know."
Upon hearing this, Huang Ying's face was full of surprise, "Sister, where are you going?"
Lord Lotus sighed.
"Where else can I go? I want to go back to my Lotus Sect to have a look. It's been almost a year since I left, and I still don't know what my family is like."
"Don't worry, I'll go to Hetou Village to find you after I've settled down at home."
"You must remember that the old Prime Minister Fang Zheng is in the hands of my disciple Princess Zhaoning. If you have to hand him over as a last resort, you go to Princess Zhaoning. When she sees you, she will naturally hand him over."
After hearing this, Huang Ying was dumbfounded, "Senior Sister, you are so bold to hide someone in the princess's mansion. If someone discovers it, it will be a capital crime."
The Lotus Cult Leader chuckled, "Don't worry, I naturally know it well. Who in the world dares to search the princess's house? As long as there is no trouble on the princess' side, there will be no problem."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei also accompanied Feng Xiaoyue to Zhu Ziming's house. Hearing that Feng Xiaoyue was here, Zhu Ziming had mixed feelings and didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to hide in the study and let the housekeeper Zhu Shouting come forward.
After Zhu Shouting saw Feng Xiaoyue, he cupped his fists and saluted and said very politely, "Miss Xiaoyue, please sit down."
Saying this, he ordered everyone to serve tea.
Feng Xiaoyue had no intention of drinking tea. She leaned slightly and said, "Butler Zhu, I would like to ask, has Mr. Zhu returned home?"
Zhu Shouting sighed, "Miss Xiaoyue, to be honest, my master has not come back yet. An envoy from Dalin Kingdom came today. He is very busy. What can I do for you? I can convey it to you."
When she heard that Zhu Ziming was busy with national affairs, Feng Xiaoyue felt a little embarrassed to speak.
He was embarrassed to speak, but Chen Xiaobei was embarrassed. Anyway, one code was the same, and it didn't take much more to ask. So he cupped his fists and saluted and said, "Please ask me if there is any news about the old Prime Minister Fang."
Seeing Chen Xiaobei speak, Feng Xiaoyue also continued, "Butler Zhu, please forgive us for being so presumptuous. This morning, Mr. Zhu sent someone to inform me that he would send someone to chase the old prime minister back today. Xiaoyue is eager to save his father."
, so I came here to ask."
After hearing this, Zhu Shouting acted very calmly. He clasped his fists at Feng Xiaoyue and Chen Xiaobei, "Don't worry, you two. When my master comes back, I will convey it to you."
After Feng Xiaoyue bowed again and thanked her, she left in despair.
After walking out of Zhu Ziming's mansion, Feng Xiaoyue burst into tears. A daughter had tried her best to rescue her father, but now she seemed so helpless, so small, and powerless.
…
Thousands of miles away, Hetou Village.
Yang Chun led a few people into Hetou Village at lightning speed.
When Chen Dayong and other village protection team members saw that Yang Chun was coming, they quickly ran to notify Cui Hongyu.
Cui Hongyu had been having some reactions in the past few days and was feeling very unwell. She was about to go to sleep when she heard a rapid knock on the door outside. She knew it was definitely looking for her and got up quickly.
Standing in the yard, he asked loudly, "Who is outside?"
"Sister Hongyu, this is Dayong. Yang Chun brought people back. He said there was something urgent and he was already waiting for the bus under the big locust tree."
Upon hearing this, Cui Hongyu felt nervous and thought something had happened to Chen Xiaobei. He quickly dressed up and went out to the big locust tree.
Arriving under the big locust tree, Yang Chun saw Cui Hongyu. He clasped his fists in surprise and said, "Sister Hongyu. Where is my brother Xiaobei? I need to see him if I have something urgent?"
Cui Hongyu looked surprised and looked at Yang Chun, "Brother Xiaobei rushed to Wannian City. Where did you come from?"
Yang Chun was confused after hearing this and slapped his thigh anxiously, "Oh, I'm just from Wannian City. Why didn't I meet you on the way? Did you miss it?"
After hearing this, Cui Hongyu quickly spoke out to persuade, "Brother Yangcun, don't panic. Come to Brother Xiaobei. What's the matter with you? See if I can help?"
Yang Chun sighed, "Oh, forget it, Miss Xiaoyue, we are in trouble in the capital. That man named Fang Zheng was kicked out of the capital by the emperor. The plan to rescue Xiaoyue's father failed. Our gang leader
There is no other way, so I asked Brother Xiaobei to come and discuss countermeasures."
Two days ago, Liu Ce and the others came and said that Liu Xiangnan and Liu Rumei had been arrested by the emperor, and now that the old prime minister had also been driven away, things were about to change in the capital.
But Cui Hongyu is just an ordinary villager, and naturally he cannot see through deeper things.
Of course, for him, matters in the capital were secondary. What he cared about the most was Chen Xiaobei's safety.
"But Brother Xiaobei has already followed Liu Ce and the others to go there last year. If we count the days, I'm afraid we'll have arrived a long time ago."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chun stamped his foot, "After all, it's still a step too late, so I'll turn back now."
Chen Dayong said with a smile on the side, "Brother Yang Chun. Now that you are here, don't leave in a hurry. You might as well contact Wannian City first and ask first to see if Brother Xiaobei has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chun nodded, "Yes, yes, you have to ask first."
Cui Hongyu ordered Chen Dachun to take Yang Chun and others to four acres of land and stay at Yang Zhi's original place.
Yang Chun's sudden interruption made her a little uneasy and unable to sleep.
Also unable to sleep was Chen Xiaobei, thousands of miles away in Wannian City.
A few words from Zhu Ziming's housekeeper, Zhu Shouting, echoed repeatedly in Chen Xiaobei's mind.
These words sound normal, but the more I think about them, the more awkward they become.
Zhu Ziming was the Sima of the Li Sima and received envoys from the Dalin Kingdom. This was normal.
It’s okay to entertain people for a meal in the evening.
But since there is an important reception task today, the first choice for family matters is of course to leave it to the housekeeper.
