Chapter 164 The Lady of the Constable's House (42)
"Sir, how could Ye Qi do such a heartless thing?"
"Then why are you in Guyu County and sneaking around my house? Who ordered you to do that?"
Forced to no place to retreat, Ye Qi could only say briefly: "Your Majesty is now looking for that miracle doctor everywhere, and asked me to inquire about it in Guyu County. Isn't this a coincidence!"
"What a coincidence, what a coincidence."
Gu Sanhe recalled the way Gu Yuxi had beaten someone just now, the powerful whip wind, and the short man in the inn...
He became anxious and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you mean? If you really kidnap my grandson as a hostage, it would be unworthy of a ruler."
"Sir, our Majesty would not do such a thing. Madam Xiao said that we brought trouble upon them. Why don't you think about whether it was done by one of your enemies?"
"I can count my enemies with just a few counts of my fingers, so don't go too far."
"We didn't steal or rob, so how could we go too far? Now the owner of this yard is missing, I wonder if the thief is still in Guyu County."
"Oh, this is terrible!"
Seeing Gu Sanhe also chasing after someone, Ye Qi had no place to vent his grievances. He endured the unprovoked injury and quickly notified others, and he also rushed back to Beijing...
Ten days later, in an inn in the capital.
"Shopkeeper, a room!"
"Okay, sir, please come this way. We are about to close. You came at the right time."
Gu Yuxi chased for more than 400 miles but couldn't find any trace of his son. He had some sense of where his son was near the imperial city, but later lost the clue.
After pursuing him for two days, she realized that she had not yet explained the situation to Xiao Zhuoxuan and didn't know whether he had received the letter.
Just when she was feeling extremely sleepy and was planning to rest for two hours, the door of the room was pried open. She woke up immediately and saw a familiar figure walking towards her.
The man touched her eyebrows and eyes quietly in the moonlight, kissed her on the lips, and then lay down beside her.
After a while, the alarm clock in the space rang. Gu Yuxi was about to get up, but was stopped by the man: "Madam, sleep a little longer."
"I'm going to find Ming'er."
"Don't worry, your husband has sent someone to look for it, and he will find it."
"It's been so many days, how can I not be anxious, or have you found a good place and it's dispensable to me and my son?"
Xiao Zhuoxuan's sleepiness was immediately scared away, and he quickly expressed his attitude: "My lady, how could you think of me like this? Am I the kind of person who changes his mind every day?"
"You are not, but that doesn't change the fact that your biological father is the Minister of War. Anyway, I think this matter has something to do with him."
"I... I don't know about the grudges of the older generation. Even if they are emperors, they have nothing to do with me."
"Are you able to get up or not? If you can't, please don't bother me while I'm looking for my son."
Xiao Zhuoxuan, with dark circles under his eyes, also got up. Seeing Gu Yuxi packing up and getting ready to leave, he hurriedly followed with the package. His wife ran fast, and he was almost exhausted from running day and night these days.
He leaned on Gu Yuxi, feeling dizzy. Gu Yuxi turned her head and saw the man with big panda eyes, sleeping on her.
When Xiao Zhuoxuan woke up again, it was already daybreak. The waiter of the inn was cleaning too loudly, so he turned his head to look at the person writing and drawing in front of him.
"Ma'am, would you like to sleep a little longer?"
"How come you're chasing so fast?"
"My family is missing, and I can't catch up quickly. I will become a lonely person in the future."
"Is Ming'er's disappearance related to that person?"
Xiao Zhuoxuan shook his head and said, "That old man is not the one, and the one in the palace doesn't look like the one either. Now I suspect someone."
"Who?"
"That moody crazy woman from Pi County."
"I knew it had something to do with those people. Next time I'll just pretend I don't know them."
"My wife, I thought so too. Once we find Ming'er, we'll move."
Gu Yuxi then remembered what she was going to do. Her son had not been found yet, and she was not in the mood to flirt with any man.
"Get up quickly, don't waste time."
"Gu Sanhe is sending people to look for it now. He is much faster than us."
"I don't really trust those hooligans. I'm going to visit the palace. Please wait for me at the inn."
"No! I'll get up, right now! Madam, even if you overturn three feet of the ground in the palace, I will give you a hoe and a knife."
The two old men standing not far from the room looked at each other. This couple really dared to do anything!
After opening the door, the two walked over, only to see Gu Ke step forward and say, "Nianwen, we'll help you find the child..."
"Yuxi, I know you..."
Xiao Zhuoxuan waved his hand and said, "Don't block the way. My wife doesn't have time to listen to you guys chat."
The couple left quickly. Before they could finish what they were saying, someone followed them and said nervously, "No one is allowed to enter the palace without permission."
"What does it have to do with you!"
Coca sighed in frustration, "Eh!"
"Sanhe, you just went to Guyu County, how come you got into so much trouble and even lost your grandson?"
"Don't talk about me. Didn't you say you have no children? How can you just claim a relative casually? Be careful or that girl will pull out all your beard!"
Gu Ke quickly covered his beard, which he was most satisfied with. Wen Niang had a bad temper and he was beaten a lot in the past, but the more he was beaten, the more he liked it. He was a masochist.
"What should we do? We can't let these two young men tear down the palace, right?"
"What else can we do? Chase him!"
After chasing them, they saw the couple buying steamed buns, and then began to wander around the imperial city, going to the post station and asking some news vendors.
"You two are so careless that you can even lose your child."
"Yesterday morning I saw two chivalrous men in black clothes holding a fair and tender little baby."
"We liked the doll as soon as we saw it. There was even a longevity lock hanging around its neck. Unfortunately, it cried so hard that some customers scolded them."
Xiao Zhuoxuan handed over the portrait painted by Gu Yuxi and asked anxiously: "Uncle, can you see if it is this child?"
"Wow! This is incredible! This painting is so realistic. The little doll looks similar to the one in the painting, but its face is dirty. I wonder if it's this one."
"What do those two people look like?"
"Well, one has a small scar on his face, is the same height as this husband, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a red mole on the tip of his nose. The other is thin, and has a machete on his back."
"That man was asking for some goat milk from a poor family. His nose was a bit high, and he looked like a merchant from a barbarian country."
"You know which direction those two people went."
After returning to the inn, Gu Yuxi fell into deep thought. These people were not far away, and she needed to sketch their faces.
Xiao Zhuoxuan remained silent. He only saw Gu Yuxi holding a pen and continuing to draw on the table, sometimes dotting moles, sometimes drawing scars. The outline of a man appeared in front of him.
An hour later, both pictures came out, and she said, "Husband, let's go ask again."
"it is good!"
