??Qin Zhang sat in the study room, propping his chin with his hands. Although there was a book in front of him, the book was upside down. His mind was not on it, and he looked quietly towards the back room.

?? It is said that the weasel holds grudges, but it turned out to be true. Although Chu Yuexi has a little temper on weekdays, he is much better than the previous King Xi, but every time it involves himself, he is like a different person.

?? At the beginning, the prince only hurt himself once, but now Chu Yuexi wants him to pay for his life.

??Qin Zhang didn't know that Chu Yuexi hated the prince so much, and it wasn't just because of the previous night attack. In Chu Yuexi's memory, Qin Zhang was in the hands of the prince in his previous life. In the city, even though Qin Zhang had forbeared it for many years, he still found out in advance, which led to the final exposure of the corpse in the wilderness.

??The prince is not dead, Chu Yuexi has no way to rest assured, so at the beginning he would rather give half of his inner alchemy to change the prince's life, but he didn't expect that a hundred miles of inheritance would be inserted in between , otherwise it will not be delayed until this time.

??At this time Chu Yuexi was sitting on the bed and was secretly counting the days. He sneered in his heart. He knew that the crown prince would not have much time. Once he died, the third prince would succeed to the throne as a matter of course and become the new Emperor of Chu.

??So he is very calm now, and he has time to concentrate on managing the affairs of the mansion every day. Although he is not busy, he is not leisurely.

??Qin Zhang was afraid that he would be tired, so he persuaded him a few times, but as the third prince's actions became bigger and bigger, and he was about to close the net, he himself gradually became busy, and he was often away from the mansion. He felt that being idle was idle anyway, if he didn't let him deal with those old accounts in the Qin Mansion, it would be a pastime.

??Qin Zhang could only intensify his movements while feeling sorry for him. He just wanted to finish these things quickly, and then leave this place with Chuyuexi.

??One morning, Qin Zhang went out again, and Chu Yuexi was secretly angry while flipping through the account books from previous years.

??The old accounts in the Qin Mansion are fragmented, and many places are inconsistent. Aunt Song was responsible for these things before, and many things and objects have disappeared without a trace.

?? If it's an ordinary thing, it's fine, but according to the allocations allocated to the Qin family by the imperial court, there were still many rare things before.

?? For example, six years ago, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send Qin Zhang a high-quality ferret fur, but now Chuyuexi searched the warehouse and found no trace of that thing. In the circle, the servants don't even know about it.

?? There is no way, seeing that autumn is coming, Chu Yuexi thought about it, and still wanted to find that thing and make a pair of knee pads for Qin Zhang, so as to save his legs from getting cold again.

?? That thing is really rare, and the servants dare not keep it privately. After thinking about it, Chu Yuexi thought it necessary to ask Qin Yuanhua.

??The old man hasn't moved for a long time. If it wasn't for this ferret fur, Chu Yuexi almost forgot that there was such a person in Qin's residence.

??He found the side yard along the way, and there are not many maids and servants serving there now, and they are not the original ones. But anyone who knows something has long been cleared by Qin Zhang Go out, and now the only ones left are new recruits who are ignorant and ignorant.

?? "The servant has seen His Royal Highness King Xi."

??Chu Yuexi went to the side courtyard and waved. A young servant ran over with discerning eyes and bowed to him.

"Why did Your Highness come to this side courtyard?"

"Where is Old General Qin?" Chu Yuexi looked around casually, but did not see Qin Yuanhua.

?? The young man lowered his head and replied respectfully: "My master is not feeling well these days, and he seldom goes out for activities. Most of the time he stays indoors. Yesterday he went to Aunt Song's room and sat for a long time. He hasn't come out since he went back, if His Highness wants to find him, I can show you the way."

??Chu Yuexi nodded, and followed the servant to the door of Qin Yuanhua's room. He knocked on the door, but there was no sound and no movement inside.

"Old General Qin?" Chu Yuexi frowned, and asked in a deep voice, but there was still no response from the room.

??"wrong!"

??Chu Yuexi's expression changed, and he didn't care much anymore. He kicked the door open, only to see that the light in the room was dim, and there were still a few plates of leftover food on the table, but they were gone long ago. The figure of Qin Yuanhua.

?? "Where are people?!"

??Chu Yuexi's expression turned ugly instantly. Qin Yuanhua was no better than others. He knew too many things. If he was allowed to run out at this time, it would inevitably cause many troubles.

??The boy didn't expect that there was no one in the house, and was startled by Chu Yuexi's angry reprimand, his eyes were full of panic.

?? "The person was still inside well before, why is it gone? Could it be that the master has gone out? But the servants have never seen him."

??Chu Yuexi slowly tightened his brows, gritted his teeth and ordered in a deep voice: "Look for it! Let everyone find his whereabouts immediately. After you find him, don't ask any more questions, just take him back to the mansion!"

??The boy ran out in a panic, and immediately arranged for people to find someone. Chu Yuexi walked over with a cold face, touched the rice bowl that was still warm on the table, and slammed his fist on the table above.

??After a while, the usually quiet and peaceful Qin Mansion suddenly became noisy. All the slaves, maids and mothers-in-law were questioned, but no one saw where Qin Yuanhua had gone.

??The guards led people to search from room to room, but in the end they couldn't find any trace of Qin Yuanhua. In the end, only Ji Feiyin's small courtyard remained.

??The guards stood at the door and hesitated to go in. At this moment, Chu Yuexi walked over with a sullen face. Because of the previous removal of the demon bone, his face was still faintly pale at this time. But it was hard to hide the coldness between his brows.

?? "What are you doing in a daze? Have you searched inside?"

?? At this time, Wei Meng and Liao Fan followed Qin Zhang out of the mansion. The leading guard, Chu Yuexi, didn't know him. , but didn't know the origin, and didn't dare to rush in at this time.

"Report to His Highness King Xi, we have searched all the other places, but there is no one. Miss Ji lives in this small courtyard. I'm afraid it's not good for servants to break in like this..."

??Chu Yuexi frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Ji Feiyin running out in a daze. She was wearing a lavender skirt and her hair was loosely tied in a bun. She was slender and elegant , although it was just a light application of makeup, it exuded a strange charm inadvertently.

"What's going on outside, Xi...why did Madam bring her guards to my little girl's place?" Ji Feiyin's pretty face turned pale, and her eyes were bewildered, making one unable to help but feel pity in her heart.

??Chu Yuexi frowned even tighter, and said coldly: "Old General Qin is not feeling well, and he has been a little delirious recently. Now he is missing in the mansion. This king is very worried, so he sent people to look for him. , I wonder if he is with you?"

A blush appeared on Ji Feiyin's face, her almond eyes were filled with anger, but she still bit her lip and replied calmly: "My little girl is not yet married, and she has never met Old General Qin, why did he come to me for no reason? Madam said so, do you suspect that I am hiding Old General Qin behind my back?"

??Chu Yuexi waved his hand, signaling the guards to go in and search for people.

?? "Miss Ji is overwhelmed, but she has been unable to find anyone. This king is uneasy, so he just sent guards in to check. If there is really no one, this king will naturally continue to look elsewhere."

??"stop!"

?? Just when the guards were about to rush in to search for people, Ji Feiyin stopped them suddenly, and stopped in front of everyone trembling. Her almond eyes were covered with a layer of mist, which was pitiful and full of Grievance and anger.

?? "Ma'am, the little girl is a girl after all! Isn't it too rude for you to let people go in and search for people like this?

??The little girl's father is an old acquaintance of the young master, and the young master also promised to take care of the little girl's life. Although this place is not big, I have lived in it for a long time, and there are some personal items in it. Madam asked the guards to rush in. Have you ever thought about the little girl?? Clear name? "

??Chu Yuexi's eyes moved, and his face became more and more cold. He didn't expect that this woman, who was usually delicate and weak, could speak so eloquently.

?? "This king just asked people to go in and have a look. Such a big person can't hide it. If there is no one, they will naturally leave immediately. How will it affect the girl's reputation?"

?? At this moment, Ji Feiyin looked at Chu Yuexi with red eyes and said slowly: "His Royal Highness Xi, you are so embarrassing my little girl, but because the little girl is blocking your eyes?"

??Chu Yuexi said in a cold voice: "Miss misunderstood, if you are really worried about these people going in to search, then I can let the maids in the mansion go in and search, right?"

?? After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the maidservants in the back came out immediately, without even looking at Ji Feiyin, they wanted to go in to find someone, but Ji Feiyin blocked the door, and they had no choice but to pull her away, so they At this moment, a low voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.

?? "What's the matter? Why are you all gathering here to make a fuss?"

?? After hearing this voice, Ji Feiyin's eyes lit up, and she fell to the ground as if being pushed, tears streaming down her cheeks, crying uncontrollably, as if she had been greatly wronged.

??After Qin Zhang came back, he didn't find Chu Yuexi's figure. Later, he heard the movement in the side yard and rushed over. He didn't expect to see him leading a group of people to surround Ji Feiyin's residence, and Ji Feiyin was also He fell to the ground and choked up.

?? He looked at Chu Yuexi in surprise, but saw that his face was extremely calm.

?? "Old General Qin is missing. I have had people search all over the house, but there is no trace. This is the only place left. Miss Ji refuses to let people go in and check."

??Qin Zhang nodded, and turned his gaze to Ji Feiyin. A maid beside him hesitated for a moment, but came over and helped her up from the ground.

?? At this time, Ji Feiyin was still crying. Seeing Qin Zhang looking over, her eyes were red, she bit her lip and bowed to him.

"My lord, my daughter has been reading in the room today. Madam suddenly rushed over with someone to search for them. This room is full of belongings from my daughter's house. It is inconvenient for men to see, so the guards are not allowed to enter the house. But Madam believes that it was the young girl who hid Old General Qin inside, and the young girl has not yet left the cabinet, if word of this gets out..."

?? "My lord, my daughter knows that since my daughter came here, my wife has always harbored grievances, but why is the accusation of keeping a foreigner on my daughter's head for no reason?"

?? Speaking of this, Ji Feiyin began to cry again, but the guards before him frowned secretly.

??When did His Royal Highness King Xi decide that someone was inside?Even if it's a room where women live, they don't search for things, they just check to see if there are other people, why are they so shameful?Besides, didn't His Highness let the maids go in to have a look, why is this woman still talking like that?

But for Ji Feiyin's words, Chu Yuexi didn't explain a word, stood aside with downcast eyes, didn't say anything, just secretly clenched his fists in his sleeves.
