Here, Zhong Duoduo was sneaky and sneaked out of the house.
On the other side, after Zhong Bai came back from the morning, he went to his father's place.
"Father." Zhong Bai was very filial to his father. After saluting, he knelt down beside the bed.
Father Zhong glanced at him, and there was a hint of worry in his old voice: "Son, I heard that you offended the current captain because of Duo'er."
"Yes, father." Zhong Bai replied: "My little sister doesn't want to marry, and I can't bear to force her. Moreover, the son of a prince is arrogant and extravagant. If my little sister gets married, her life's happiness will be ruined."
"Alas." Father Zhong sighed and said, "You only have a little sister, so you should take good care of her. But she has been naughty and willful since she was a child, and she has done random things. Don't let her get too spoiled."
Hearing this, Zhong Bai couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly. His sister, who refused to listen to scolding and was reluctant to fight, was a ghostly spirit that not everyone could cure.
Father Zhong said again: "In addition, Lu Bolin must have a grudge after being rejected by you. I'm afraid this matter is not over yet. You should also tell Duo'er to be more careful and not to go out recently, as well as yourself. "
Zhong Bai said: "Although the Lu family is extremely powerful, the Zhong family is not something he can move if he wants. Father does not need to worry too much."
But even so, Father Zhong couldn't rest assured. He couldn't help but said: "I think in my father's opinion, if you join forces with the Prime Minister, you can also act as a check and balance on the Taiwei."
Although Father Zhong is old, he was a famous old fox before he fell ill. Now he also knows the situation of the empire very well. There are many factions in the court. Prime Minister Dong Hua and Taiwei Lu Bolin are always fighting, and Zhong Bai has always maintained Neutral, never participate.
He is a general who suppresses military forces and has the power in his hands. If he shows his side, both parties will be ecstatic.
But after Zhong Bai thought about it, he said: "Let's forget it. I don't want to get too involved in the partisan dispute."
As he spoke, he saluted again and said: "Father, please rest first, I will take my leave."
When Father Zhong heard this, he waved his hand tiredly, indicating that he could leave.
After leaving his father's place, Zhong Bai was about to return to his study, but when passing by Zhong Duoduo's house, he happened to see the maid entering the room wearing Zhong Duoduo's clothes.
The maid was about the same height as Zhong Duoduo, and Zhong Bai didn't pay much attention when only her back was visible.
Two days later, the house was quiet, without the usual bustle when Zhong Duoduo was around. Zhong Bai was in the study. After a maid brought tea, he also picked up the teacup and asked casually: "Miss, haven't you gone out these two days?"
"Go back to the young master, the young lady has been in the room." The maid said.
"This girl." Zhong Bai muttered. Normally, even if his sister didn't sneak out of the house, she would come over and bother him. Why was she suddenly so quiet, but he still didn't care much.
Two more days passed like this. At this time, Zhong Bai felt something was wrong. Because the atmosphere in the house was completely different from usual, he had to go find Zhong Duoduo.
"Duoduo." He stood outside the room and shouted, preparing to open the door and enter.
But as soon as he moved, a nervous female voice came from the room: "You, you are not allowed to come in."
Zhong Bai didn't pay much attention to this female voice at the time, so he didn't hear anything wrong with the tone and just assumed it was Zhong Duoduo inside.
But his sister was already a big girl and was not allowed to enter the boudoir. How could he dare to force her way in? He could only give up, stand at the door and chatter for a while, and then left.
But the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. In the end, Zhong Bai found the door of Zhong Duoduo's room again and shouted inside: "Duo'er, come out!"
The maid stayed in the room, frightened by the loud shout, and immediately tensed up. But now that the matter was over, she could only say in a trembling voice: "I, I won't come out."
kindness! ? This time, Zhong Baike could hear clearly that this was not his sister's voice at all!
He immediately frowned and without saying a word, he broke in through the door.
With a bang, the door was kicked open by him, and the maid in the room was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and weakly shouted: "Young Master... Young Master..."
"You!" Seeing this scene, Zhong Bai understood everything. His eyes were splitting, and he asked sternly: "Say! Where is the lady!?"
"Miss...Miss, she..." the maid stammered, and at the same time looked at a silk book on the round table.
Seeing this, Zhong Bai followed his gaze, quickly stepped forward, picked up the letter and read it.
After he finished reading, his nose was almost crooked with anger. He couldn't help but point at the maid and cursed angrily: "I told you to look after the lady on weekdays, but you are better, look at what you have done!"
As he spoke, he also raised his voice and shouted: "Come here! Lock this slave to the woodshed!"
"Master, have mercy..." The maid begged for mercy again and again.
Zhong Bai knew that the maid was also ordered by Zhong Duoduo and had no choice. Therefore, he was not too embarrassed, but quickly called Liang Yuan and told him: "Quick! Send someone to Qinzhou immediately!"
"Ah? Young Master, what happened?" Liang Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Zhong Bai said anxiously: "Duo'er ran to Qinzhou!"
"What!?" Liang Yuan was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but said: "Sir, Qinzhou is about to hold a grand martial arts gathering. At that time, dragons and snakes will be mixed together, and masters of the martial arts will gather together. It is inevitable that there will be bandits among them. Miss, go and join in. It’s so lively and there’s no one around to protect you, what should I do?”
"I'm worried about this, so hurry up and go!" Zhong Bai said again.
"Yes, yes!" Liang Yuan quickly backed away.
But just as he turned around and took two hurried steps, Zhong Bai behind him suddenly called out: "Wait!"
"Ah? Young Master." Liang Yuan had no choice but to turn back.
At this time, Zhong Bai had calmed down relatively. After taking a deep breath, he said quietly: "Duo'er has been walking for several days. If I chase him at this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. Even if I catch up, I won't be able to catch up until we reach Qinzhou." , if you are not familiar with the place, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
After speaking, he paused and then said: "Qin is a big land, but one person can easily find Duo'er."
"Young master is saying..."
"My sworn brother, Xiao Yuan." Zhong Bai said directly.
Hearing this, Liang Yuan also reacted and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Mr. Xiao is the lord of Qinzhou. The entire Qinland is under his control. With one order, it should not be difficult to find the young lady, and He is also the sworn brother of the young master, so he will definitely help with this."
At this time, Zhong Bai was no longer nervous, but smiled slightly and said: "Without further delay, quickly get the pen and ink, I will write a letter, and you will ride on a fast horse, day and night, and send it to Qinzhou."
"Yes!" Liang Yuan took the order and left.
