"lady."
Xiao Cao's voice came from the other side: "Have your lanterns been extinguished?"
Konggu hurried over and took a lantern from Xiaocao: "Yes, the wind blew, my hand tilted, and the wind blew in, and the candle inside went out."
Xiao Cao heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I was wondering why I couldn't see the light of the lantern while walking. Maybe it has gone out. Fortunately, I came to check it out. Otherwise, there would be no lights in the garden and Madam would have to walk back in the dark."
The group talked as they entered the courtyard.
"Madam, please go to bed early." Nanny Li warned again with concern.
"Hmm." Wei Yang felt her mind was in a mess. She thought it would be better to lie down. If she didn't sleep, the maids and nannies wouldn't sleep either. So she decided to lie on the bed and think about it.
Konggu waited for Weiyang to lie down, pulled Xiaocao out, and said softly: "I think Madam is a little tired, I will keep watch tonight."
On the couch in Weiyang's outer room, no one is allowed to stay when Yan Gui is around, and Yan Gui gets up to serve her when she needs to drink tea or pour water. When Yan Gui is not at home, either Konggu or Xiaocao will keep watch at night. Tonight it is Xiaocao's turn, but Konggu is worried.
Xiao Cao looked at Wei Yang's room, hesitated for a while, and whispered: "Sister Kong Gu, Xiao Hua is gone."
"What?" Konggu almost cried out in surprise. He came to his senses, quickly closed the door to the inner room, walked a few steps to Xiaocao, and dragged her to the gate of the courtyard: "Tell me clearly what you mean by missing."
"I don't know either." Xiaocao's voice was filled with fear and anxiety. What if something happened to Xiaohua? She was unfamiliar with Liuzhou.
What she was more afraid of was not that something would happen to Xiaohua, but whether Xiaohua had escaped. If she had escaped, why didn't she leave when Lady Yanzhou let her go, but had to go to Liuzhou to escape.
Seeing Xiaocao in a daze for a long time, Konggu became anxious and pushed her hard: "Speak up, when did she disappear?"
Xiao Cao cried and said, "I don't know if it was last night or this morning. I haven't seen her since breakfast. Then I was busy receiving gifts and helping Madam make robes, so I forgot about it. At night, I went to her room and saw her bed. Then I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen her for a whole day."
Konggu was stunned. The person had been missing for a day and a night, and this little girl had just come to tell her that the person was missing: "Have you looked for him?"
"I looked for her. I went to the kitchen and asked people in the garden, and they all said they hadn't seen her for a day. Sister Konggu, do you think you should tell the lady?" Xiaocao was anxious, but she also knew it was her own mistake.
She should have paid attention to Xiaohua in the morning when she didn't see her, but she didn't remember it until she fell down at night. Now the general was out again and the lady was asleep, she didn't know what to do.
Konggu pondered for a while and said, "Go tell Madam Li. I'll be waiting here with the Madam. If Madam Li tells you to tell me, you can come back and report. If Madam Li tells you not to tell me for the time being, you can ask Madam Li to make a decision, or go find Ding Wu. The general probably didn't bring Ding Wu with him when he went out. Ask Ding Wu to send someone to check."
"Okay, I understand." Xiaocao lifted her skirt and ran outside.
Konggu walked to the edge of the bed and sat down.
Her hands were shaking slightly. She didn't know what had happened. The general came back and left again. She had been vaguely worried since the lady chased the general to the second gate. Normally, the lady had never been like this.
Is something big going to happen
