He Jingyao thought for a while, then immediately called her personal maid and asked the maid to look around the area to see if she could see any trace of Xu Caidi and Yang Hong'an.
After the maid took the order and left, He Jingyao became a little uneasy. Her eyes fell to the door from time to time, wanting to see if there was any news about those two people.
What He Jingyao was most worried about at this time was that she was afraid that Yang Hongan would believe Xu Caidi's words, so while waiting, He Jingyao was also thinking about how to gain Yang Hongan's trust and make him believe what she said.
Xia Luotong's eyes glanced at He Jingyao's gritted teeth and frowned face, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he ordered Lindong beside him: "Go and help our poor Miss He, it's quite hard for her to find someone. .”
Hearing the sarcasm in her princess's tone, Lindong also showed a faint sarcastic smile, obviously full of disdain for those who dared to provoke her princess.
After Lindong responded respectfully, he immediately turned around to run his errands. Not long after, he saw Lindong returning to the banquet and standing behind Xia Luotong again.
Xia Luotong still had great trust in these capable men around him. Therefore, after seeing Lindong nod to him, he knew that Lindong had completed the errand, so he did not ask more questions, but did not He paid close attention to the situation on He Jingyao's side.
Not long after, He Jingyao's personal maid hurried back, with a very complicated expression on her face, as if she had been frightened, but there seemed to be a little red on her cheeks.
As soon as the maid came back, she immediately went to He Jingyao's side and said something hastily.
When He Jingyao heard this, her eyes widened suddenly, as if she was about to scream, but she immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, and looked around secretly, and saw that no one noticed her. Then he quickly picked up the personal maid and walked out of the banquet hall in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, Xia Luotong smiled slightly and was in a good mood.
However, just when Xia Luotong was thinking about when to "take action", a maid suddenly came to her.
"Princess An, Prince An is waiting for you at Qiulu Pavilion. I hope you will come there soon."
The maid stood in front of Xia Luotong with her head lowered and replied in a respectful tone.
Xia Luotong raised his eyes and looked at the little maid in front of him, his eyes showing caution and consideration. The little maid was dressed in the style of Feng Guo Gongfu, and she looked like someone from Feng Guo Gongfu.
But she was a little confused, since Wu Zechen was here, why didn't he come directly to the banquet to see her, instead of going to such trouble to have a maid from the Duke of Fengguo come to deliver the message?
Xia Luotong frowned slightly, feeling that all this was a little weird. After learning from the previous lesson, Xia Luotong did not make any arbitrary decisions this time. Instead, he turned to look at Lindong aside, preparing to ask Lindong. The meaning of winter.
The result surprised Xia Luotong. Unexpectedly, Lindong nodded to him, indicating that he could go with peace of mind.
Could it be that Wu Zechen is really here? And would rather stay in the small courtyard than come to the banquet?
Now that Lin Dong nodded, the curious Xia Luotong no longer hesitated and immediately stood up and left with the little maid, but did not notice that when she left, the corners of Li's lips hidden behind the cup were raised high. He stood up and showed a sinister smile.
After Xia Luotong left the banquet, she walked slowly behind the little maid. But the more she walked, the more uneasy she became because this place was already a little remote. Although it was still in the garden, But it was deserted, and no one walking was coming this way.
It wasn't until the little maid led Xia Luotong outside a certain courtyard that she bowed and hurriedly said goodbye. Before leaving, she also told Xia Luotong that Prince An was in the house at this time and asked Xia Luotong to Just go inside.
Xia Luotong raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard in front of him. Not a single lamp was lit. It was pitch dark and eerie. He couldn't even hear any movement in it. On the contrary, it didn't look like anyone was there.
Seeing such a scene, how could Xia Luotong go inside again? There was something wrong with this room at first glance.
"Let's go back to the banquet." Xia Luotong frowned and immediately turned around to leave.
With the lesson she learned last time, she will no longer be so confident and reckless now, so she is extra calm at this time, not curious about what is in the room at all, she just wants to leave safely without getting into this muddy water.
But who would have expected that Lindong stood still and did not move, and at the same time stopped Xia Luotong from leaving.
"Master, let's go in and have a look. This slave has just come to check out this place. There is nothing unusual or dangerous, so you can rest assured and go in and see what's going on inside." Lindong suggested calmly. .
"Is there really nothing in here? Do you really want to go in and take a look?" Xia Luotong raised her eyebrows slightly, but she still felt a little hesitant in her heart. The main reason was that she didn't want to drag Wu Zechen down again because of her own affairs.
Lindong nodded and replied affirmatively: "It's okay. Maybe I can ask my servant and Manying to accompany you to have a look? You can also find out what the maid is selling in the gourd."
Xia Luotong couldn't help but nodded after hearing this, and slowly walked towards the house with Lindong and Wu Manying, raised his hand to press the door, and pushed the door open with a little force.
The room was dark, there wasn't even a light, but there wasn't much of a musty smell. It must have been cleaned frequently, but it didn't matter, because when Xia Luotong just opened the door, a tall and slender figure came into view. Eyes closed.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, Xia Luotong recognized the person standing in the room with just one glance.
It was Wu Zechen who had promised to pick her up at Fengguo Duke's Mansion later!
"Why are you? Why are you here?" Xia Luotong looked at Wu Zechen in surprise. After the surprise, a full smile appeared on her face. She stepped into the room with her little face raised. Welcome Wu Zechen.
The person in the shadow slowly walked out until the moonlight shone on his face, revealing his true face.
The first time he saw Xia Luotong, Wu Zechen smiled tenderly. While Xia Luotong was facing him, he also walked towards Xia Luotong, and finally stretched out his hand to hug her into his arms. The hug tightened.
"I promised to take you home, so I came here just after I finished my work." Wu Zechen lowered his head and kissed Xia Luotong on the forehead, then slightly loosened his embrace and looked at the person in his arms.
