In the middle of the night in Yanjing City, it suddenly rained heavily.
The spring rains are always lingering, as if they can't bear to break the newly blooming flowers. However, that night, lightning and thunder, pouring heavy rain suddenly arrived, and the lanterns under the eaves were shaking.
In the stable, Xiao Lan raised his hoof anxiously, chopped on the ground annoyingly, and didn't even look at the forage in the stone trough, but made the horse-raising steward anxious. This BMW is now General Ji’s treasure, so you must watch it carefully. If something goes wrong, General Ji will take care of it.
In the bird cage in the yard, Xiao Hong was also slammed by thunder-induced scum. This time she did not learn to speak, she was like an ordinary bird, frightened by the thunder. The little servant also lifted the birdcage into the house, and the thunder outside was a little bit quieter.
In the dark and cold rainy night, there is no star in the sky, only thick dark clouds. At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door of the Guogong Mansion.
The porter was taken aback, and when he went out to take a look, he saw a woman standing outside, wearing a cloak, but her whole body was soaked, and her hair was almost all wet, standing in front of her eyes like a chicken.
"This girl?" The concierge frowned. Who else will come to the government office at this late hour? The woman didn't recognize it.
The girl raised her face and said, "I, I'm Baixue, the maid next to Miss Jiang from the second family. I want to see Lord Guo and tell him something important!"
Only then did the concierge see clearly that it was indeed Bai Xue beside Jiang Li. Others are not familiar with Jiang Li's words, the people under the government are familiar with it. People who can swagger into the Guogong's mansion and have a good relationship with Ji Heng, except for Situ Jiuyue, this is the second lady of the Jiang family.
The concierge pulled Baixue into it a bit, shielding the wind and rain outside, and said: "Miss Snow White, your lord is not in the house now, and I don’t know when you can come back. You are all getting wet, or you should go and change it first. Drink some hot water to save the cold. It rains so heavily outside, why did you come by yourself?"
Bai Xue suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. Outsiders said that Lord Su was moody, and even the people of Guogong Mansion had eyes on the top of their heads and never looked at people directly. But in fact, they are not as indifferent as they say outside.
"No... Because what I want to say is really important... This little brother, when will the Guogong Mansion come back?"
The concierge said: "This... the young ones don't know the whereabouts of the adults. If Snow White is waiting for someone, go in and wait. The wind and rain outside will come in."
With these words, another gust of wind came, and Bai Xue had to walk in. Seeing that she was like this, the concierge greeted the other servant, took Bai Xue into the mansion of the government, and went to change clothes first.
Bai Xue got the advice of Tonger and ran out by herself. Don’t let Jiang Yuanbai know that Jiang Li has a close relationship with Guogong Mansion, so you can’t use the mansion’s carriage. At this time, where is there a carriage outside? The street was searching for the officers and soldiers who were tracking Jiang Li at the moment. Bai Xue walked slowly under the umbrella, which was quite eye-catching, and she had to run all the way. When I arrived, I was naturally wet and embarrassed.
After Bai Xue got out of her clothes, she stood in the long corridor outside the flower garden of the Guogong Mansion. The young man persuaded her to wait at ease, but Bai Xue couldn't settle down anyway. The worse the weather, the more she worried about Jiang Li, not knowing where Jiang Li was.
At this moment, when someone called her name suddenly, Bai Xue looked back and found that it was Situ Jiuyue.
Situ stayed in the Guogong Mansion in September because the flower garden of the Guogong Mansion always has the raw materials for making drugs, and she has a good relationship with General Ji, so there is no need to shy away from it. Seeing Bai Xue, Situ Jiuyue said strangely: "Why are you here? You are the only one? Where is Jiang Li?"
"Miss Situ!" Bai Xue called out, as if she had caught the straw, and said: "You are close to Lord Guo, do you know when Lord Guo will be back?"
"He?" Situ Jiuyue shook his head, "I'm not close to him. Besides, how would I know if he goes out to work? It seems that your lady is not here, you are alone." She looked up and down Bai Xue, Bai Xue Although she changed into dry clothes, her hair was still moist. Situ Jiuyue said, "You came in such a hurry and asked Ji Heng for help? Why, is your lady in trouble again?"
Situ Jiuyuechengri was in the refining pharmacy, so naturally he didn't know what was going on outside. Moreover, Jiang Yuanbai did not explain to the public that Jiang Li was missing in order to protect Jiang Li's reputation. Those officers and soldiers will not talk nonsense everywhere, and if Ji Heng is not there, the people in the Guogong Mansion will not deliberately investigate this matter.
Bai Xue said: "It's not that I'm in trouble, it's that I'm missing."
Situ Jiuyue had a nonchalant expression, looked at Bai Xue, and asked, "Missing?"
"Yes." Bai Xue said what had happened during the day, and said to Situ Jiuyue at the end: "So this matter is really important. The same thing happened with Miss San last time. Although the master asked the officers and soldiers to investigate, but in the end there was no whereabouts. It was the grandfather of the country who found Princess Yongning’s private prison. The slave and maid thought, with the skills of the country’s government, she might be able to find the girl earlier... Miss Situ, the country’s government When will Lord return home?"
Situ Jiuyue's expression became solemn, and said, "As far as I know, he should be out of the city."
Bai Xue was stunned.
"He has something important this time, and he shouldn't come back for a while. If you want Ji Heng to find someone for you, it won't work for the time being."
Disappointment suddenly appeared on Bai Xue's face.
Situ Jiuyue pondered for a while, and said: "It's not that there is no way. I will find a way to tell Ji Heng about this. Let's see how Ji Heng arranges it. Although others are not in Yanjing City, they may be able to help arrange them. Don't worry. Since the other party came here prepared and deliberately kidnapped your young lady, it was not just to kill your young lady, otherwise Jiang Li's body should have appeared now. Besides," she said bluntly, "even if Jiang Li really died unfortunately, even if it was for the friendship of the Guogong Mansion, Ji Heng would help her avenge her."
It would be better not to say this, but Bai Xue became even more nervous after hearing this.
"You can't help much if you stay here, so let's go back." Situ Jiuyue said: "Although I don't know when Ji Heng will be back, I know that Ji Heng will not be back tonight."
Bai Xue stayed silent for a moment, knowing that Situ Jiuyue was telling the truth, and it really didn't help that she stayed here. Moreover, Situ Jiuyue said that he would help her tell Ji Heng about the matter. After Ji Heng knew what had happened, he should take action.
She didn't even run in vain.
Bai Xue saluted Situ Jiuyue, thanked him, and left.
After Bai Xue left, Situ Jiuyue returned to the small room next to the refining pharmacy.
The young man named A Zhao can now sit up, sitting on the bed, and although he still can't act on his own, he is very sane.
Ah Zhao did not fall asleep at the moment, but was awake. Seeing Situ Jiuyue came in, he smiled and said: "I just heard Doctor Situ talking outside and mentioned the private prison of the princess mansion."
"Yes," Situ Jiuyue said: "A friend is missing. Speaking of which, she still has something to do with you."
Zhao puzzled.
"At the beginning, she wanted to save her sister, so she asked Ji Heng to help find her whereabouts. Ji Heng found her in the princess mansion's private prison. She brought you out only for the sake of her sister and didn't want to meet you by chance. You can say, If it weren't for her, you are still in prison now, and there will never be another day."
A Zhao was also surprised when he heard this, and then said, "That... friend, is he missing now?"
"The one who went missing this morning is still missing."
"As a friend of Doctor Situ, Doctor Situ does not seem to be at all..."
"Sad? Anxious?" Before Ah Zhao finished speaking, Situ Jiuyue interrupted him. She smiled, but her smile was cold, "For me, it is just a name, no Special meaning. Instead of worrying about others, it is better to worry about yourself." She took out a needle and said, "I am such a person. For example, I can save you or kill you."
Azhao was not frightened by her words, just smiled and shook his head.
"Why are you laughing?"
"It's nothing, I just thought of my sister." A Zhao said: "My sister always taught me to worry about yourself, don't worry about others."
"Then your sister is really clever," Situ Jiuyue asked as she administers the needle for A Zhao, "Where is she now?"
After hearing no answer for a while, Situ Jiuyue looked up.
The bright eyes of the teenager dimmed, as if covered with a haze, he whispered softly: "My sister has passed away."
