Time flies, two days have passed in a flash.
At the bottom of the cliff, a blue figure stood there for an unknown time, coughing from time to time, and his face was bloodless. However, his eyes were fixed on the surroundings, and he did not relax at all.
"My lord, you have been here for two days and two nights without rest. Go back to rest first, and leave it to your subordinates."
The personal guard beside Xiao Hou couldn't see it, so he stood up and persuaded.
"Stop talking, this king has his own measure." Xiao Hou raised his hand and stopped his subordinates from continuing.
The guard had no choice but to retreat.
At this time, the people sent out came back.
Xiao Hou looked at them, his fingers curled slightly, and his voice carried a tension that he didn't even notice, "Have you found it?"
Everyone shook their heads, and one of them stepped forward and said, "My lord, the brothers have searched the bottom of the cliff in the past two days, and still can't find the princess."
Xiao Hou's face stiffened, and then he pursed his lips and ordered in a cold voice, "Continue to look for them. If you can't find them, expand the area for this king. Even if you dig three feet in the ground, this king will still meet people!"
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, but they did not dare to question the prince's order, and immediately took the order to leave.
There was a vast expanse in front of him, the grass with thick fingers was as tall as a person, and there were damp soil and sharp stones everywhere, Xiao Hou couldn't help clenching his hands.
It's been so many days, Zhijing, where are you
I dare not leave here. They say that there are beasts here. I am afraid that they will hurt you, and I am afraid of leaving. When you find you, the first person you see is not me.
However, I am more afraid that I cannot find you.
"My lord, I've searched all over the east, but nothing."
"What about the west side?"
"no."
"What about the south?"
"still none."
Xiao Hou was silent, the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a huge black shadow, making it difficult to see his expression at this time, but what is certain is that the breath emanating from his body is cold and lonely, Sadness, so intense.
The guard standing in front of him suddenly summoned up his courage and said, "My lord, the beasts are haunted here, maybe the princess, she, she's gone."
gone
The words were like a spell, and they kept ringing in his ears.
At that time, he was still laughing and bickering in his arms. Now, in the blink of an eye, someone told him that she might not be there anymore. He felt that someone was constantly digging in his heart, slowly digging his heart out. null.
"Nonsense, you continue-"
"My lord, the brothers who went to the north to look for it have returned. Uh, they are carrying something." One of them exclaimed in surprise, causing everyone to look over.
Xiao Hou was stunned, and people came to him.
I saw a few guards carry one person to a stop in front of him, and then gently put it down, covered with white cloth, so I couldn't see the appearance, but the pink clothes that hung down made everyone silent.
"My lord, the princess has been found." The leader said, and then retreated silently.
Xiao Hou froze in place, looking at the stretcher covered with white cloth, for a while, his mind was empty, as if he couldn't think anymore.
"What did you say?" he murmured, squirming his lips.
The man couldn't bear to repeat it again, "It's the princess, the princess has found it."
Xiao Hou shook his head and said in disbelief, "This king hasn't confirmed it yet, so it won't be hers."
As he spoke, he shook his hands and slowly stretched out to the white cloth. When he touched the corner of the cloth, he subconsciously shrank back, not admitting it in his heart, but was very panicked.
Finally, he closed his eyes and pulled the white cloth ruthlessly.
Suddenly, a person whose face could no longer be seen appeared in front of him.
"It fell from a height and hit the boulder in the north. His face was scratched by sharp edges and corners, and his limbs were broken. The time of death was just three days ago, which coincided with the time when the princess fell off the cliff, and she was similar in shape and dressed the same."
The subordinates reported word by word, making Xiao Hou's heart sink to the bottom bit by bit.
Although everyone is constantly verifying with him that this person is him, he still doesn't believe it.
He bent down, reached out to reach her ankle, and saw that the string of Qiqiao exquisite locks was so cleverly wrapped around the slender ankle.
His pupils shrank, and he staggered back a few steps.
The string of Qiqiao exquisite locks was put on by Pang Huang in order to restrain her, and handed over the key and compass to him so that he could watch over her.
He remembered that in order to get the key, she tried every means, and even drugged him, but unfortunately she took the wrong medicine and made an oolong, and was molested by him. scattered.
Yu Guang swept to the transparent jade bracelet at her wrist, he felt a stagnation in his chest, as if his heart had been hollowed out, and his eyes were still fixed on the bracelet.
It was three days ago. He personally helped her put it on. In order to help him detoxify, she gave the girl's most precious thing. He knew that she loved him deeply and didn't want to let her down, so he left the only thing his mother left to him. The relic was given to her, acknowledging that she was his only wife in this life.
However, the jade bracelet is still there, and people have already died.
"Pfft—" A mouthful of blood spit out.
"My lord, my lord—"
In the hazy white light, it seemed as if I saw a figure walking slowly.
"Xiao Hou, didn't I tell you not to make yourself so embarrassed? Why don't you listen to what you say?"
"When you come back, I'll listen."
He stretched out his hand and tried to touch the shadow, but fell into darkness.
How many times in a trance,
It seems to see you in a sea of people.
In the shadows you have emerged,
In a blink of an eye, it was gone.
You are like a blazing fire,
How can I not miss it
A remote courtyard in Kyoto.
"Young Palace Master, didn't you tell your subordinates to pay attention to the movements of the King's Mansion? The subordinates found out that in the past two days, the people around the King of England have been mobilized frequently. Although they have deceived a lot of people, they have not been able to deceive me!" Xuanxi Zimo reported triumphantly.
Dong Ting Wangyu rested his chin in one hand and leaned lazily on the couch, "Can you find out the reason?"
Xuanxi Zimo smiled when he heard the words, "That's not true, but my subordinates have already arranged for an investigation, and there will be news soon."
Dongting Wangyu nodded lightly.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen the little girl for a few days. She said that she will be leaving the city in a few days. Why is there no movement?"
Just when he was confused, there was a sudden sound in the air, and his ears moved. After hearing it clearly, he immediately got up from the couch and walked to the window to listen carefully.
"Young Palace Master, you—"
When Xuanxi Zimo spoke, he was stopped by his master raising his hand. He immediately closed his mouth. The master's expression was so serious. Judging from his usual experience and lessons, he had to stay far away.
"No, something happened to the little girl."
After the sound stopped, Dongting Wangyu said in a deep voice.
"How do you know?" Xuanxi Zimo finally asked out of curiosity.
"She was playing the bone whistle that Master Ben gave her. She has never blown it for so many years. This time, the sound is unusual, and the direction of the sound," Dongting Wangyu looked into the distance, her eyes wide open. The color is deep, "It's from the palace."
