The sun is shining warmly on the earth, Soto Country is immersed in laughter and laughter, and outside the window are busy figures and people passing by.
Everyone looked very happy, except for the two people lying in the room, looking sleepy and bored, and they didn't forget to monitor each other's every move.
Several medical officers carefully changed the dressings, examined the injuries of these two people, and then prepared the medicine themselves. They did not dare to be idle or neglectful for a moment.
But these two people didn't seem to be very happy. They had the same expression, with pulled faces and frowned eyebrows. They didn't speak or smile. They took medicine and ate. Other than that, they just stared out the window in silence. , doing nothing, as if angry.
But no one could figure out who they were angry with. They could only occasionally see a follower running over and whispering in his ear, which would soon be replaced by a more grim and terrifying expression.
The medical officers lowered their eyes and acted as if they didn't see anything. They worked hard and took good care of them, hoping that they would not make any mistakes.
Li Luansong and Mutam have not seen Shen Que for two days, and even Zelan is not here.
The people sent to find out the information would come back from time to time with information that made them furious, but they pretended to be fine.
The medical officers took care of them for three days, without taking off their clothes, and several people took turns staying close to each other. Until the two royal highnesses could no longer bear it and kicked everyone out, and then the medical officers withdrew from the room in relief:
It's finally time to return to life. It's such a nice weather.
There were only two people left in the room again.
After ignoring each other for a long time, Mutam finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Li Luansong, stop pretending to be dead and think of a solution quickly. That boy Liang Fan has taken Master away for so many days and there is no news at all. Aren't you worried? I knew that boy had bad intentions."
Li Luansong was applying medicine to the wound on his lower abdomen. After hearing this, he snorted and said, "In hindsight, now I know I'm in a hurry. What did you do a long time ago? Why did you bring this person with you in the first place?"
Mutam was stunned and argued: "He is from Ye, you are doing business in Soto, and there is no ship to go back. Moreover, he and the master had their eyes on a car at the same time..."
"You don't need to tell me this. I know as much as you do." Li Luansong glanced at him impatiently, "What's wrong with the people in Daye? There are no liars in Daye. How can you let people approach Yuanyuan casually? This The boy has a sinister look on his face at first glance, can't you tell?"
"Hey, how can you blame me for this?" Mutam sat up and argued anxiously, "You don't know how much of a thief he is. He can't shake off dog skin plaster. His sweet words make the master happy. What can I do? Method."
"Why can't you get rid of him? I think you are useless, so you can't find someone to kill him." Li Luansong wrapped the gauze around his body, put down his clothes, and made a slashing motion.
Mutam said helplessly: "You are powerful. You have been sending people to follow us. Then why don't you take action?"
"How can I do it?" Li Luansong glared, "What will Yuanyuan think?"
"Then I can take action?" Mutam simply stood up and took a few steps towards Li Luansong. "He is always clinging to Master. What will I do if Master finds out?"
"You're stupid." Li Luansong also stood up, and the two of them came together and sat on the chairs facing each other. "Just quietly throw him into the river. If anyone can find out, even if he is discovered, just say that he slipped and fell into the water." ”
"Li Luansong, I'm different from you." Mutam shook his head, "I am still a moral person. Liang Fan can be considered half a Sotho person. He has made a lot of contributions to Sotho. If anything happens, I will never feel better in this life, I am not as cruel as you."
Li Luansong was always quick to talk, but when he choked him like this, he was speechless and rolled his eyes, not bothering to pay attention to him.
Mutam was still thinking about himself: "Besides, if master finds out, how much she will hate me, I don't dare to think about it, I don't want to make her angry."
"Then you can only watch her being taken away by that kid."
Li Luansong glanced at the darkening sky outside, considered for a moment, and said no more.
Mutam stopped talking, and the two sat opposite each other, each with his own thoughts and sighs.
In the evening, Zelan finally came to deliver the meal. Mutam hurriedly pulled Zelan to inquire about Shen Que's whereabouts. Zelan thought for a while and said: "Liang Fan sends people to report the news every day, and yesterday he said it was in his I’m a guest at home, today…”
Zelan thought for a long time before saying: "There is no news today."
She took out the food and handed it to the two of them: "But don't worry, the lady will be fine. Maybe there are so many things going on today that I forgot to send you news. Your Highnesses will eat slowly, and I will go back first."
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into the night.
In fact, they both knew the whereabouts of Shen Que and Liang Fan, but the people they sent could only circle around. They wanted to know from Zelan what they had done and what they said, but their questions were in vain.
"Why don't we go together and bring Master back." Mutam really didn't want to wait any longer.
Li Luansong nodded and said yes, then continued to act stupid, "But where to pick him up? I have no information. What about you? Do you have any information?"
"Me neither." Mutam also pretended to be stupid, "Otherwise, should I send someone to ask?"
Li Luansong nodded, "Of course that's good."
After the two pretended to reach an agreement, they looked at each other, each with their own agenda.
"How is your injury?" Mutam glanced at Li Luansong's injury and had nothing to say.
"No problem." Li Luansong patted his belly, "As for you, you look like a hornet's nest."
"Tch, it's fine a long time ago." Mutam tilted his mouth.
The two fell silent again.
The night outside the window is thick, and a bright moon hangs on the branches, round and bright.
"In Daye, it's the time for the Chinese New Year." Li Luansong said quietly.
"Missing home?" Mutam asked.
Li Luansong shook his head: "I haven't fully shouldered the responsibilities that should be shouldered by me, and I feel guilty in my heart."
"Me too." Mutam also looked very disappointed.
There was another moment of silence, and the two of them silently reflected on the moon.
With a "pop" sound, Li Luansong patted Mutam on the shoulder and said: "Cheer up, this time I find Yuanyuan and I will definitely beat that kid Liang Fan and teach him a lesson."
"Okay." Mutam stood up and said aggressively: "I get angry when I talk about him. This guy is so good at pretending. He looks like a pig but is actually a wolf."
"Yes, let me tell you, the two of us..."
"Your Highness, is Your Highness here?"
When the two were urging each other to take action, there was an urgent call outside the door. Li Luansong walked over and opened the door. It was Zelan.
"Madam, madam is lost."
Zelan spoke incoherently with tears in her eyes, "Just now Liang Fan sent someone to say that my wife was with him, but now she has disappeared, and she can't be found."
Li Luansong was shocked: "Where did you lose it?"
Zelan shook his head: "I don't know, that person left without saying anything."
"Asshole." Mutam said angrily: "What about Liang Fan?"
Zelan cried and said: "Liang Fan said that he made a mistake and did not dare to see you two. He went to find someone first."
Li Luansong held his forehead, his heart beating loudly, turned around, took the sword and went out, followed closely by Mutam.
The bright moon shines on the snow, the streets are much brighter, there are few pedestrians, and two fast horses are flying away in the dust.
*
Under Liang Fan's care, Shen Que had a very comfortable life these days. Not only did he eat well, drink well and sleep well, he also inspected almost all the markets and goods, and had a very clear idea of the next step of development.
This day should be regarded as the last stop that Liang Fan took her to experience, and it was also a place that Shen Que had never touched before.
Shen Que was very surprised: "What kind of place is it that you have such a loud tone? Have I really never seen it before?"
Liang Fan smiled mysteriously: "Master must have never seen it before."
The carriage stopped in front of a courtyard. The woman waiting at the door was dressed in a brocade dress with rich makeup and a smile as bright as a flower:
"This is Mrs. Shen, I'm sorry. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Madam, please get out of the car."
Liang Fan stretched out an arm to let Shen Que help him get out of the car, turned around and said to the woman, "Then I'll help you, sister."
The woman quickly saluted: "Mr. Liang, what are you talking about? It's my honor for Mrs. Shen to come."
As he said that, he helped Shen Que go inside.
There are winding paths in the small courtyard. As soon as you enter the door, you can hear the sound of cool water. Lamps are lit among the vegetation, illuminating the small courtyard in the night, making it mysterious and elegant.
"Mrs. Shen, be careful where you step." The woman said, "I am also from Daye, my surname is Hong, and I am the shopkeeper here. If you don't mind, Mrs. Shen, please call me sister."
As she spoke, she led Shen Que into the door, and it suddenly dawned on her that this was a hot spring inn.
The heat was lingering, and the sound of spring water could be heard in the dimness. Shen Que was very pleasantly surprised:
"What a pleasant place. My sister has good taste."
Hong smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, sister. The most wonderful thing about our place is that we only entertain women, and each person has an independent courtyard. Sister, don't worry, it is absolutely private and safe."
Shen Que was indeed shocked, "Is there a woman coming alone?"
Hong said: "The status of women here is very high. Compared with Daye, it is different. It is common for women to come and stay for a day or two. You can give it a try."
Shen Que said yes, "Sister, do you want to cooperate with me?"
Her frankness made Mrs. Hong blush, and she said hurriedly: "No, no, no, madam, please don't misunderstand me. Master Liang wants me to stay comfortably for two days. It doesn't matter whether we cooperate or not, it all depends on my wishes."
Shen Que said yes, "Then I won't be polite."
That night, Shen Que took a bath in the hot spring, and Hong asked someone to squeeze her shoulders and rub her legs. The two chatted while eating and quickly finalized the cooperation.
It was another lucrative business. Shen Que silently thanked Liang Fan. More importantly, it allowed her to broaden her thinking. She didn't know that women could have their own place to relax just like men. This trip was well worth it. This line.
According to Liang Fan's wishes, Shen Que stayed comfortably at Hong's house for a few days.
This made Li Luansong and Mutam, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, anxious. They desperately wanted to see Shen Que, but they couldn't show it. They could only endure it and pretend to walk around the city. Liang Fan's I have to go to my home, all the inns and restaurants in Soto...everywhere I can find.
It’s really tiring and laborious, how long will it last?
Mutam said: "Why don't you declare a reward for Liang Fan? I don't believe he can escape."
Li Luansong shook his head: "It's inappropriate. Where do you put Yuanyuan's reputation in this way? You can only find it quietly."
Act, keep acting.
Mutam said in anger: "We have agreed that when we see Liang Fan, no matter how much Master protects him, we will give him a good beating."
Li Luansong said in the affirmative, "He will definitely survive this beating."
The two of them were very passionate, hoping that the other would not be a good person, and it would be better to make Shen Que angry and ignore him.
At this time, the people sent out to follow up came back and reported: "Liang Fan's traces have been found."
