However, Han Changmu pressed forward step by step and said reluctantly: "It's a big deal to lose Miss Seventh. Since I have encountered it, I can't ignore it. I'd better go and see with Mr. Yuan. Maybe I can be of some help."
Xie Mengxia also squeezed over at some point and nodded: "What I'm saying is that Jiuchao is good at investigating cases and will definitely be able to help."
His Highness the King of Han had already spoken, and Yuan Zhengrong had no choice but to refuse Han Changmu's "kindness". He had no choice but to nod his head and said, "Then, I'll take care of you, Major Ambassador Han."
Han Changmu stood up and walked out, stood on the corridor and looked around, then turned around and said: "Then let's go to the hall. Could you please Master Yuan, please bring the maid in the seventh lady's room, the servant who was on duty last night, and the first Anyone who finds that Miss Seven is missing should be brought to the hall to ask questions."
Yuan Zhengrong choked for a moment, feeling that the development of things was getting more and more out of his control and getting more and more weird.
If you don't agree, it seems that he doesn't care about his daughter and is impersonal. If you agree, this is not what it is.
He hesitated for a moment.
Xie Mengxia had the intention to watch the excitement from beginning to end, concealing the excitement on his face, and followed Han Changmu's words: "Master Yuan, don't hesitate, Miss Seventh is a big matter, Jiuchao has always been the best at investigating cases. , if he asks, he will find Miss Seventh soon."
Yuan Zhengrong no longer had any excuses or room for refusal, so he had no choice but to make a dark face and invite everyone to sit down in the hall.
Originally, Xie Mengxia was supposed to be in charge, but when Han Changmu wanted to ask questions, Xie Mengxia smiled broadly and said, "I'm just a spectator, so it's better for Jiuchao to take charge. Let Jiuchao do it."
Yuan Zhengrong secretly squeezed his hands.
What the hell is this? The fox got into trouble without being beaten.
He looked around and found that, except for Wang Cong, most of the people who stayed behind were just like Xie Mengxia, and they were all here to watch the fun.
He was puzzled. He obviously sent people in, but no one came out. How could they disappear? Where did the people go?
Without thinking much, the housekeeper came over with a group of people from Wuyang Wuyang, knelt down neatly in the corridor, and called everyone in for questioning.
Han Changmu is an expert at asking questions. The only way to find someone missing in the mansion is to ask the serving maid, when did the seventh lady go to bed, and what noises did she hear at night? Then ask the servant on night duty, Who had been in and out of the inner courtyard at night? Then ask the first person who noticed that Miss Seven was missing, when they discovered it, and what was the situation in the house.
After asking around, Han Changmu was able to confirm that the seventh lady ran out in the middle of the night. As for where she went, he lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and smiled coldly. He knew exactly where the seventh lady had gone. , Yuan Zhengrong and Wang Cong also knew it well.
It's just that his inner knowing is solid in his heart, while their inner knowing is floating.
Things have deviated more and more from their original plan. They planned in a hurry, and few people knew about it. It was inevitable that there would be loopholes. If you ask questions like this, sooner or later you will ask about unsightly things.
Yuan Zhengrong was covered in cold sweat. He calmed down and said, "Young Envoy Han is also tired. Let's eat breakfast first and take a rest before asking."
Han Changmu didn't intend to ask anything originally. He just wanted to clear himself up on this matter. He took another sip of tea and nodded: "That's fine."
The morning food was laid out in the hall here, but the lights in the other courtyard that had been on all night were just extinguished.
Except for the few pieces of materials that Han Changmu brought, everyone in the other courtyard, both openly and secretly, were all members of Yuan Zhengrong. They said they were here to protect, but everyone knew in their hearts that they were here to monitor.
But no matter how many people monitor, there will always be things that cannot be seen and there will always be omissions.
Yao Yao was carrying someone on his back. Meng Suigai was leading him in front, and Gu Chen was watching behind him. The three of them climbed over the wall into the inner courtyard, avoiding people, and sent the sleeping girl into the boudoir. .
After everything was done, Yao Yao clapped his hands gently and sighed: "Your young master is out here attracting bees and butterflies, and I am here to help him deal with the aftermath. What a fucking loss."
Meng Suige chuckled and said, "This is not my young master's attempt to attract bees and butterflies. This is clearly someone else's way of paying for you."
Yao Yao turned the girl's face and looked at her: "This little girl is so cute, and she is a lady from a famous family. If she matches your young master, your young master will make a profit."
Gu Chen snorted and said sarcastically: "Not only did he make a profit, he obviously made a fortune."
Hearing footsteps and noisy voices coming from outside, the three of them knew that the time was almost up, so they deliberately kicked over a small dish, making some noise to attract people to come and check, and then they all walked around the back wall. Jump over the wall.
The terrain was already known. After climbing over the back wall, there was a secluded small street. There was a breakfast stall at the street entrance. The three of them sat down at the stall and had a hot breakfast.
Meng Sui and three other people had the leisure to eat in the morning, but the group of people in the hall did not have this leisure time. They all ate food without knowing the taste. No matter how good the delicacies of mountains and seas entered their mouths, it was like chewing wax.
I had just finished half of this chewy meal when I heard rapid footsteps outside, running with a thud. As I ran, I shouted breathlessly: "Miss Seven is back, Miss Seven is back."
When Yuan Zhengrong heard the shout, he wanted to beat the man to death.
When he started this game, he originally didn't want to hide it from anyone. He just thought that the bigger the trouble, the better, so he left no way out and alerted everyone in the house.
But now that the plan has not been completed, he naturally wants to push this matter down quietly. Unfortunately, he never has a chance to express his thoughts, and the servants in the mansion are not so transparent that they can have a clear understanding with him. That's it. He screamed out loud.
Upon hearing this, Han Changmu put down the bamboo chopsticks and looked at Yuan Zhengrong calmly: "Master Yuan, since the seventh lady has gone back, this case must be investigated in a different way."
A girl who has not yet left the boudoir, first disappeared all night, and now returns to the boudoir inexplicably. It seems that there is a ghost.
Yuan Zhengrong felt extremely guilty. He glared fiercely at Leng Touqing, who rushed in to report the news, and was about to curse out loud: "Tell me, what's going on."
The boy wiped his sweat and didn't notice that Yuan Zhengrong's face was ashen and he was already on the verge of getting angry. He replied eloquently: "Miss Seventh's maid heard something moving in the room and hurried in to take a look. , saw Miss Qi lying on the kang, and yelled a few times before she woke up, and then asked the young one to come forward and report to the master."
Yuan Zhengrong's heart skipped a beat and he never woke up. Could it be that the medicine he took last night was too heavy? He asked eagerly: "How is Miss Seven now?"
The boy shook his head: "The villain was not awake when he came out to report the news."
Yuan Zhengrong panicked, stood up all of a sudden, and kicked over a bed: "Have you invited the doctor?"
The boy nodded: "Please, please, but the doctor hasn't arrived yet."
Han Changmu said calmly: "Master Yuan, don't be anxious. I have some medical skills. If Master Yuan can trust me, I can take a look at Miss Seven first."
Yuan Zhengrong glanced at Han Changmu, his eyes were sharp and quite unkind.
If you believe him, it would be better to die immediately.
But Yuan Zhengrong never said this. No matter how much he used his daughter as a scheming person, he still felt sorry for his daughter's life. Furthermore, he also wanted to take a closer look at what went wrong and what the scheming was. The person actually moved from the wing back to the boudoir.
He nodded: "Then there is Major Envoy Lao Han."
The group put down their food and marched into the inner courtyard.
The inner courtyard is where the female family members live. Yuan Zhengrong's first wife is gone, but there are a lot of concubines, all living in the inner courtyard scattered.
Although Yuan Zhengrong was a civil servant, his behavior as a housekeeper was that of a military commander. Whether it was his wife, concubines or children, if they disobeyed discipline, they would be beaten to death.
Although there is no legitimate wife to control them, this group of concubines, under the word "beat", are as well-behaved as a group of cats. There are some secret jealousies, but no one is killed. Yuan Zhengrong I just turned a blind eye, just for fun, and let them go.
The concubines in the inner courtyard had already received the news and were locked in their own courtyard and were not allowed to come out. The gatekeeper outside was Yuan Zhengrong's confidant and would not let them out.
The Seventh Miss's yard was at the deepest part of the inner courtyard, close to the back wall. It was not suitable for a group of big men to go in, so most of them stayed outside. Only the Seventh Miss's biological father, Yuan Zhengrong, and Under the guise of curing illnesses and saving lives, Han Changmu went in to find out.
As soon as he walked into the room, Han Changmu saw the little Taozi lying on the ground. He laughed in his heart. Meng Suigai and the others had done this, but he asked seriously: "Did you come in and bring this little Taozi down?" ?”
The maid who was the first to notice that Miss Seven was back knelt down tremblingly, lowered her head and replied: "No, no, when the maid came in, Xiao Zhuzi had already collapsed."
Han Changmu nodded towards Yuan Zhengrong and said in a serious voice: "Master Yuan, it seems that someone deliberately kicked over the little boy and made some noise, hoping that people outside would notice that Miss Seven has returned."
Yuan Zhengrong's heart has sunk to the bottom, and he keeps thinking about who has such great ability to kidnap people from the wing and then safely return them to the boudoir under the noses of so many secret guards. .
This man is so terrible, walking around in the governor's house is like being in a deserted place.
The two continued walking inside, and Yuan Zhengrong stepped into the compartment. He saw the seventh lady lying on the fire bed, her hair in a bun, her face pale, and her breathing was rapid but weak.
But Han Changmu stopped outside the screen. It was not convenient for him to break in directly to the girl's boudoir.
Yuan Zhengrong's heart sank, and he turned to Han Changmu and asked, "Mr. Han, there is something wrong with this child."
Han Changmu said through the screen, "Master Yuan, please put down the curtain."
