【Twelve】disappear without a trace

Ning Nanyou disappeared, and disappeared without a trace. No one knew where he was going. On the day when thousands of people watched the execution ground, Jiang Chengjia's blood surged, his old illness relapsed, and he fainted on the spot. When she woke up again, about two or three days had passed.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she struggled to get up, grabbed Qianshan and asked, "Where is the king? Where is the king?! Qianshan, have you found him?"

The girl's face was pale and bleak, her eyes were staring at Qianshan tightly, her eyes full of urgency, expectation and begging.

Seeing this, Qianshan couldn't help but feel ache in her heart. She said silently and shook her head in disgrace. Jiang Chengjia grabbed her hand, shook slightly, and suddenly slid down, losing all her strength in an instant.

She softened her feet and fell down, muttering to herself in disappointment: "How could this happen? Why...How could this happen?"

Jiang Chengjia's lost appearance made Qianshan feel apprehensive: "Girl, you just woke up and you can't be so tired. If you relapse again, your life will be lost."

The girl silently sat on the cold stone brick floor without moving. Qian Shan was accompanying her side, not daring to leave, but dared not disturb her easily.

The atmosphere in the room was heavy, as if condensed by frost, and it was so cold that it made people tremble uncontrollably.

At this moment, the closed door was gently pushed open. Chengqingtan carefully pushed Chengmian's wooden wheel into the house. They seemed to think that Jiang Chengjia was still asleep, so the footsteps and the wooden wheel were particularly light. Unexpectedly, when they lifted the pearl curtain and walked to the inner room, Chengqingtan saw the girl wearing a thin outer robe, sitting on the ground with a dead face, full of loss and sadness.

Cheng Qingtan hurriedly let go of the handle behind the wooden wheel, stepped forward to support Jiang Chengjia, and asked softly: "Sister Luo, why are you sitting on the ground like this? You have just woken up. If you suffer from the cold and get angry again, it will be amazing."

Cheng Mian sat on the wooden wheel, listening to his sister's inquiry, and couldn't help but feel nervous, saying, "Chengjia, I know you are anxious, but no matter how anxious you are, you should take care of your own body. If you really fall down, how can you find Your Highness King Rui?"

Jiang Chengjiaxun looked over, and a glimmer of hope gradually rose in her dark eyes. She struggled and staggered towards Chengmian, holding his robe and said, "Chengmian... Lord Cheng. Do you know anything? Your Highness will never leave me and leave Xindu like this. Do he have any plans? Before His Highness disappeared, did you meet you and explain what he said?"

Cheng Mian groped, trying to reach out to hold the girl's wrist, but silently took it back when he bent over. He shook his head helplessly and said, "The incident in Xindu happened suddenly. When King Rui was invited to the government office by the officials, Tan'er and I were in the old house and failed to rush over in time. It was not until the city started to make a fuss in that I realized that King Rui was tied up by the officials and went to the execution ground for personal disposal.

When Tang Qu pushed me to the suburbs and rushed to the stern of the suburbs, King Rui had disappeared. It is said that... He cut off the rope tied to his body when the officials were discussing how to report to the court to His Majesty, and injured the yamen runners and soldiers guarding him in front of everyone, and fled from the suburbs."

Hearing these words, Jiang Chengjia grabbed Cheng Mian's hand and slid down weakly: "It seems that your highness does not leave any clues to you, Lord in the same city."

She spoke in a weak voice, and Cheng Qingtan next to her said with great pain: "Sister Luo, don't worry first. Brother Rui Wang disappeared at this time, which was not what he wanted. This afternoon, you also saw the scene on the side of the execution ground, and so many people stared at him.

Even if he wants to leave some news and tell you where he is going, he still needs to worry about the officials of Xindu. Now everyone is shouting at him and killing him, and they all shouting to get out of Xindu, and even doing something like tying him to go to the suburbs and execution grounds without permission.

It is hard to imagine that if he replied to me, these officials would do anything excessive. It would be a good thing for him to leave now. Fortunately, Sister Luo, you are a daughter of the Jiang family. All officials know your brother's intention in the court. Although they know that you are the wife of King Rui, they will not make things difficult for you too much.

Sister Luo, let’s be patient and wait. Maybe in a few days, Brother Ruiwang will ask someone to send news. He cares about you like that and will never let you be worried all the time."

Cheng Qingtan comforted her sincerely, reached out to support her shaking body, allowing her to rest on her shoulders.

After this consolation, Jiang Chengjia, who was panicked, calmed down slightly: "You are right. In that situation, your highness must have no time to inform me. I need to calm down before I can find your Highness."

Cheng Mian listened silently to the conversation between Cheng Qingtan and Jiang Chengjia, and the hand that was holding on his knees was curled and tightened. He felt pity for the girl and sad and sore. He couldn't see Jiang Chengjia at all discomfort, but when he saw the girl sad for Ning Nan, there was a breath in his chest, which made him feel jealous.

He endured it for a long time before he swallowed the pain that could not be heard.

"Chengjia, don't worry. Tan'er and I will be by your side, and we will work with you to find the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Rui." Chengman paused for a moment, and said with the girl in a gentle voice.

Jiang Chengjia had red eyes, tried hard to suppress his emotions, and nodded slightly, "Thank you for your help from the young man in the city. If you can find your noble family, I will remember this kindness and will never forget it."

Cheng Mian listened to the girl's firm and resolute voice, and didn't know what it felt in his heart, but he felt mixed feelings. However, he made up his mind that even if he had no chance with the girl in this life, he would still be with her side. As long as he could see her every day, he would have no regrets in his life.

The house was surprisingly quiet and silent for a long time, Cheng Mian spoke indifferently: "You and I don't have to be so polite. Before leaving Beijing, I promised your brother to take good care of you. Since I made my promise, I will naturally fulfill it."

Jiang Chengjia looked at him with gratitude, and gradually relieved the panic and pain in her heart. Cheng Qingtan was accompanying her, constantly telling jokes, intending to amuse her. The originally quiet and cold atmosphere gradually warmed up and became more and more warm.

However.

For a whole month after Jiang Chengjia woke up, no matter how he searched for the Water Pavilion, Dongfusi, Yegong Pavilion and Jingtuwei, he could not find any trace of Ning Nanyou. He seemed to have never existed in this world, and disappeared out of thin air and there was no news.

Chengmian called on all the exploration forces he had cultivated in the Wei Dynasty over the years to assist the Jiang brothers and sisters in search of Ning Nanyou's whereabouts, but they also found nothing.

Such a deadlock is like a vicious circle, no matter how hard everyone works, they cannot break through it.

The situation in Xindu is getting worse and worse, and the accusations of Ning Nanyou by the subjects of the Wei Dynasty are becoming more and more intense. Seeing that the matter is about to enter a dead end that cannot be retained, Jiang Chengjia resolutely decided to leave Xindu and lead the Shuige and his group to find Ning Nanyou's whereabouts.

Chengmian had stopped him, Lu Xun had also persuaded him, and Qianshan even begged her not to leave impulsively, but no one could stop her. If she wanted her to wait for her letters for a day or a day, it would be better to kill her on the spot.

Seeing that Jiang Chengjia could not persuade him, everyone had to listen to her arrangements. More than a month ago, after receiving the letter from Jiang Chengjia to the breeze, Yan Chunniang found a reason, quietly escaped from Fu Zhongwen, and rushed to Xindu. A few days after she arrived, she heard the locals that something happened to the supervisory envoy's office. When she heard the news of Ning Nanyou's disappearance, she found Zhuying without stopping. When she learned that Jiang Chengjia wanted to leave Xindu, she followed her without saying a word and prepared to leave here together.

The supervision commissioner's office has been preparing for a long time, and the group of talents finally set off.

This search took more than half a year. They found Nanyang all the way from Xindu, and finally found a clue in the Nanyang governor.

The breeze found out from the nearby wine shop that a strange man had always come in and out of the Nanyang Princess Mansion. Although this man was dressed very ordinary, he often wore a long robe and a robe on his head, but he had an inexplicable nobility on his body, which made people afraid to see him. He kept lowering the brim of his hat from time to time, as if he didn't dare to see his appearance. Every time he entered the Princess Mansion, he would often come out after staying for half a day.

An updater once said that the man would sometimes sneak into the princess's mansion from the back door in the middle of the night. Therefore, there was a rumor in the city of Nanyang County that the wife of the former Grand Sima Wei Cao, Princess Nanyang, raised a civilian-identified person in her mansion and had a private meeting with him every day.

The breeze reported these to Jiang Chengjia, with a very strange expression, a little worried and a little scared.

The girl had a white face, not knowing what to do, but she only knew that her mind was up and down, and her mind became confused.

Qianshan frowned, worried about Jiang Chengjia's condition, so she winked at Fufeng and asked, "Son-in-law is so good, why did you suddenly come to find Princess Nanyang? Fufeng, have you been inquired wrong? Or maybe the man mentioned in the rumor is not a son-in-law at all. You can't speculate randomly on this matter."

The breeze sitting in front of them immediately understood Qianshan’s meaning and hurriedly said, “What you are saying is. These are just rumors, and rumors are not trustworthy. After all, no one saw the appearance of the husband.”

Yan Chunniang, who was guarding everyone, also responded repeatedly: "It is precisely this principle that everything has not been found out yet. Without evidence, none of us can explain that the man is His Highness Rui."

Jiang Chengjia closed his eyes, listened to their conversation, and took a deep breath and said, "Why do you have to explain? Lu Xun has also reported to me today. Two days ago, the Jingshuwei here was sent by a man in a sackclothed and covered with a white veil to find several thugs who were not registered in the official household registration documents. The man held the Jingshuwei and gave the seal... Let me ask, in this world, who else has the Jingshuwei and gave the seal? Lu Xun has already found out about this matter, and the person who sneaked into the princess's house is the king."

Qianshan, Fengfeng and Yan Chunniang froze at the same time, and the room suddenly became terrible.
