"Grandma, I don't want to go. I'll stay here with you."

"You are still a child and don't like to play around. How boring is it to stay with an old woman like me?"

Xia Zhi shook his head, "It's better to stay with grandma when we go out."

Aunt Cui smiled and said, "Girl, this is filial piety, I'm afraid you will be bored."

Xia Zhi nodded. In fact, she couldn't sing or dance when she went outside. She couldn't do some humming and haha. It was too inappropriate.

Instead of watching those versatile ladies show off their talents, it would be better to lie in bed and have a good sleep.

"You, you are the most lively at home, but when you go out, you are not as good as your three brothers. They always stick to me. It's rare to be so lively. People are rushing to go. It's better for you. I don't even let you go. go."

Princess Yiyang smiled and touched her head, "Go, grandma will be fine here."

"Grandma, it's cold outside and I don't want to move."

This was part of the reason, but more importantly, Xia Zhi really wanted to stay with her.

However, there are advantages to her not going.

That is, no matter what happens outside, it has nothing to do with her.

Even if it means losing someone.

That's right, it's not a certain girl who has been embarrassed, but a young lady named Lan who has been embarrassed.

There was a sudden commotion outside, and Xia Zhizhi secretly said something bad, maybe there was an assassin coming.

She quickly wanted to hide, but she heard someone outside the tent saying that Miss Lan had gone to a distant place for convenience, and then she disappeared.

Look, she still said it.

Princess Yiyang held Xia Zhiling's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that she would lose it too, "Mother Cui, go outside and find out what's going on."

"Yes!"

Aunt Cui came back soon, with a panicked look on her face, "What's going on, Aunt Cui?"

At this time, Aunt Cui also took a roundabout way, "Then Miss Lan is gone, and so is the second young master."

"What?" Princess Yiyang paused, "Why is Xia Jiang missing?"

At this time Xia He and Xia Hai also entered the tent, "Isn't Xia Jiang back?"

Xia Zhizhi just said that being a cannon fodder has nothing to do with him, but in the end, his second brother disappeared.

"No, why aren't you together?" Princess Yiyang asked.

"Second brother said he wanted to take a break after drinking, but who would have thought he didn't come back?"

"Who knew that second brother was out?"

"This...many people saw it just now, and they haven't come back yet?"

Xia Zhizhi frowned, "Second brother is gone, and Miss Lan is also gone. This is hard to say."

Princess Yiyang also understands this truth.

Not long after, Wen Heng came and looked very anxious, "Isn't Xia Jiang back yet?"

"No." Xia Zhi was worried to death, "I still want to find him."

"It's dark and midnight, where are you going to find me? Be obedient and wait here."

"I just want to find him. I'm not afraid of the dark. I can leave." Xia Zhizhi said.

Wen Heng looked at the persistent little girl and knew that even if he stopped her, she would still sneak out.

"Then come with me."

When Xia Zhi nodded, Wen Heng's hand had already been stretched out.

"It's too dark to walk, so I'll hold your hand."

Xia Zhi didn't hesitate when he knew it. He was still a child, and the issue of men and women not being intimate had nothing to do with him.

It's really hard to walk in the dark at night, and it's surrounded by mountains, so it's easy to find animal traps and the like.

What's going on with the second brother? Why are you running around on your own?

But she was more worried than angry.

"Don't be afraid, Xia Jiang will be fine." Wen Heng comforted him softly.

"Why did Miss Lan disappear?" Xia Zhi couldn't help but ask.

To be honest, this Miss Lan should also be a cannon fodder. Anyway, Xia Zhi knew her name.

Of course, it might be an important role in some part of the middle, but she doesn't know.

"That's not clear."

"You have to find my second brother quickly, otherwise he will be in trouble."

No need for Xia Zhi to tell, Wen Heng also knew it.

Although they are not very old yet, they have reached the age of avoiding taboos. If something happens to Miss Lan, Xia Jiang will be the first person to be suspected.

The torches outside were almost lighting up the sky.

Someone shouted, "Found it, found it."

Xia Zhizhi and Wen Heng ran over in tacit understanding, and what they saw was a disheveled little girl, about twelve or thirteen years old.

Anyone with eyesight knows what's going on.

Wen Heng looked away.

"How could this happen? Who is such a beast?"

"Hey, the young master from the Princess Mansion is also missing. Could it be..."

"fart!"

Xia He, who has always been timid, suddenly cursed: "You have to pay attention to evidence when you speak, you are going to kill people with your red lips and white teeth."

"That's right, since my second brother is gone, does that mean he must have done something bad?"

Xia Zhi was relieved that at least her family members trusted each other.

"Then...then I'm just guessing."

Xia Zhi looked at the man who spoke. No matter who he was, even if the King of Heaven came, she would still have to fight back.

"Miss Lan is fainted now, but she will wake up at some point. Besides, my second brother left the meeting, but if we say there is responsibility, then everyone who left midway is also responsible."

"That's right, that makes sense."

She didn't know if she was afraid of the Princess Mansion, or if she really felt that Xia Zhizhi's words made sense, or there was someone on her side.

Xia Zhi would never believe that his second brother would do such a thing.

Xia Zhizhi took out the silver needle and pricked several of Miss Lan's acupuncture points by the light of the torch.

After a while, Miss Lan woke up.

But before that, someone had already put her clothes on.

It was Wen Heng who gave in, but he didn't take off his own clothes.

When Miss Lan saw everyone, she thought of what had just happened. After shouting, she cried and said nothing.

When she recovered, all she could think about was dying.

Xia Zhi knew what losing her innocence meant to a young woman.

So she felt that the murderer should be caught.

Who on earth is so brave and dares to do such a thing under the nose of Emperor Shun De?

If you offend Long Yan, you may think that the whole family will live longer.

"You want to catch the bad guy even if you want to die? You are not afraid of death anyway, why are you still afraid of catching the bad guy and letting him be punished?"

Xia Zhizhi walked over and said, "You didn't do anything bad, but the person who did the bad things escaped. Aren't you angry in your heart?"

"I...I...but how will I live in the future? I don't have the face to see anyone."

Xia Zhizhi sighed and said unfavorably, "Have you seen that person's face clearly?"

Miss Lan shook her head, "No, someone suddenly covered my mouth, and then I fainted. When I woke up, I was here, and I was... wuwu..."

"Is it Xia Jiang?" someone asked curiously.

Xia Zhizhi gritted his teeth in anger, "Why didn't you say it was you? Did you ask that?"
