Late that night in Yanjing City, it suddenly rained heavily.
The spring rain is always thin and continuous, as if I can't bear to break the newly opened flowers. However, that night, lightning and thunder, pouring rain suddenly came, and the lanterns under the eaves of the house were shaky.
In the stable, Xiao Lan nervously raised her hooves and chopped on the ground irritably. She didn't look at the forage in the stone trough, but made the little boy who kept the horse anxious. This BMW is now the treasure of old general Ji. You must look at it carefully. If something goes wrong, old general Ji will keep it.
In the bird cage in the yard, Xiao Hong was also made a noise by the thunder. This time, she didn't learn to speak, and she was like an ordinary bird, frightened by the thunder. The boy also brought the bird cage into the house, and the thunder outside was smaller.
On a dark and cold rainy night, there was no star in the sky, only thick dark clouds. At this time, there was a sudden knock at the door of the government house.
The porter was suddenly surprised. When he went out to have a look, he saw a woman standing outside, dressed in a cloak. However, her whole body was wet, her hair was almost wet, and she stood in front of her like a drowned chicken.
"This girl?" The porter frowned. Who else would come to the government house so late? The woman didn't recognize her.
The girl raised her face and said, "I'm Bai Xue, the servant girl beside the second miss of the Jiang family. I want to see the Duke of the country. Tell him something important!"
The porter saw clearly that it was indeed Snow White beside Jiang Li. Others are not familiar with Jiang Li's words, and the people of the government are familiar with them. The person who can swagger into the government and have a good relationship with Ji Heng is the second miss of the Jiang family, except situ Jiujiu.
The porter pulled snow white to go in a little, covering the wind and rain outside, and said, "snow white, the adult is not in the house now, and I don't know when he can come back. You are all wet, why don't you go and change into a clean dress first, drink some hot water, and save the cold? It's raining so hard outside, why did you come by yourself?"
Snow White suddenly had an unspeakable feeling in her heart. Outsiders said that Duke Su was moody. Even the servants of the government had eyes on the top of their heads and never looked at people. But in fact, they are not as indifferent as what they say outside.
"No... because what I want to say is really important... When can the government come back, little brother?"
The Porter said, "this... The little ones don't know the whereabouts of the adults. If Snow White wants to wait, go and wait first. It's going to rain outside."
With this sentence, another gust of wind blew, and Bai Xue had to go inside. Seeing her like this, the porter greeted another young man, took Bai Xue into the government house, and went to change his clothes first.
Bai Xue got tong'er's entrustment and ran out by herself. Jiang Yuanbai cannot know that Jiang Li has a long relationship with the government, so he cannot use the carriage in the government. At this time, there is no carriage outside. On the street is the search for the officers and soldiers who are tracking down Jiang Li at the moment. Bai Xue walks slowly with an umbrella. It's noticeable that she can only run all the way. When I ran, I was naturally wet and embarrassed.
After Bai Xue changed her clothes and came out, she stood in the corridor outside the flower garden of the national government. The boy advised her to wait at ease. Bai Xue couldn't calm down anyway. The worse the weather, the more worried she was about Jiang Li, and she didn't know where Jiang Li was.
At this time, someone suddenly called her name. When Bai Xue looked back, it was situ September.
Situ stayed in the government house in September because there were raw materials for making drugs in the flower beds of the government house at any time, and she had a good relationship with general Ji, so there was no need to avoid anything. Seeing snow white, situ Jiuqi said, "Why are you here? You're alone? Where's Jiang Li?"
"Miss situ!" Snow White called, as if he had caught a straw, and said, "you are close to the Lord, do you know when the Lord will come back?"
"Him?" Situ Jiu shook his head. "I'm not close to him. Besides, how can I know when he goes out to work? It seems that your young lady didn't come, but you were alone." She looked up and down at Bai Xue. Although Bai Xue changed her dry clothes, her hair was still wet. Situ Jiujiu said, "you came in such a hurry to ask Ji Heng for help? Why, your young lady is in trouble again?"
Situ was in the refining pharmacy all day in September. Naturally, he didn't know what happened outside. Moreover, in order to protect Jiang Li's reputation, Jiang Yuanbai did not explain that Jiang Li was missing for the time being. Those officers and soldiers will not talk nonsense everywhere, and Ji Heng is not in, and the people of the government will not deliberately investigate this matter.
Bai Xue said, "it's not trouble, it's missing."
Situ Jiujiu looked at Bai Xue and asked, "missing?"
"Yes." Snow White said what happened in the day again, Finally, he said to situ Jiujiu, "so this matter is really important. The same thing happened to the third miss last time. Although the master asked the officers and soldiers to check, there was no whereabouts in the end. It was the Duke of the country who found the private prison of Princess Yongning. The maid thought that with the capital of the Duke of the country, maybe she could find the girl earlier... Miss situ, when did the Duke of the country return to the house?"
Situ Septembers expression dignified, said: "as far as I know, he should go out of the city."
Snow White was stunned.
"He has something important to do this time, and he should not come back for a while. If you want Ji Heng to help you find someone, you can't do it for the time being."
Snow White's face suddenly felt disappointed.
Situ September pondered for a while, "There's nothing I can do. I'll find a way to tell Ji Heng about it and see how Ji Heng arranges it. Although he's not in Yanjing City, maybe he can help arrange it. Don't worry, since the other party came prepared and deliberately kidnapped your young lady, it's not just to want your young lady's life, otherwise Jiang Li's body should also appear now. Besides," she said bluntly: "Even if Jiang Li is really unlucky to die, even for the friendship of the national government, Ji Heng will help her revenge."
It's better not to say this. After hearing this, Bai Xue became more nervous.
"You can't help staying here. You'd better go back." Situ Jiujiu said, "although I don't know when Ji Heng will come back, I know that Ji Heng won't come back tonight."
Bai Xuemo paused for a moment and knew that situ Jiujiu was telling the truth. It was really useless for her to stay here. And situ Jiujiu said that he would help her tell Ji Heng about it. Ji Heng should take action after knowing what happened.
She didn't go there in vain.
Snow White saluted situ Jiujiu, thanked him, and left.
After Bai Xue left, situ September returned to the small room next to the refining pharmacy.
The boy named ah Zhao can now sit up and sit against the bed. Although he still can't act by himself, he is very sober.
Ah Zhao didn't sleep at the moment, but woke up. Seeing situ Jiujiu coming in, he smiled and said, "I just heard doctor situ talking with people outside and mentioned the private prison of Princess mansion."
"Yes," situ Jiujiu said, "a friend is missing. Speaking of it, she still has something to do with you."
Zhao was puzzled.
"At the beginning, she wanted to save her sister, so she asked Ji Heng to help find her whereabouts. Ji Heng found the private prison of Princess mansion. It was only for her sister that she didn't want to meet you by chance, so she brought you out. It can be said that if it weren't for her, you would still be in that prison now, and there would be no day to see the sun again."
Hearing this, Zhao was also surprised, and immediately said, "that... Friend, is he missing now?"
"He disappeared this morning and is still missing."
"Since he is a friend of Dr. situ, Dr. situ looks not at all..."
"Sad? Anxious?" Before ah Zhao finished speaking, situ septemberinterrupted him. She smiled, but her smile was also cold, "friends or family, for me, it's just a name, which has no special significance. It's better to worry about yourself than about others." She took out a needle. "I'm such a person. For example, I can save you or kill you."
Zhao was not frightened by her words, but just smiled and shook his head.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing, just think of my sister." Zhao said, "my sister always taught me to worry about myself and don't worry about others."
"Then your sister is really smart," situ Jiujiu asked as he injected ah Zhao. "Where is she now?"
There was no answer for a long time, and situ September looked up.
The young man's bright eyes darkened, as if covered with a layer of haze. He whispered, "my sister has died."
