The Young Emperor and the Fearless

He Zhongzheng also knew about this matter, so he acquiesced to He Junzhi to deal with it.Most of the officers and soldiers of the magistrate's yamen were dispatched to look for the missing person, and followed the direction in which they left outside the city.

But He Junzhi and others can only wait for the news.

However, He Li couldn't sit still and wanted to go out and do something.

He Junzhi said: "Lights of thousands of houses in Lingyang City are in good order. Those troublemakers don't seem to be from Lingyang, they always come from outside the city and go outside the city."

He Li said: "Why didn't they stop them before entering the city when they came. Could it be that the same group of people didn't come every time?"

He Junzhi said: "That's exactly the case. The city guards can't stop ordinary people. Before they enter the city, they all disperse and pretend to be honest people. After entering, they gather together."

He Junzhi tracked down three times in total.

The first two times, Meng Qing found out about it and warned him, but the third time is this time.

After all, Heli still couldn't stay in Zhizhou Mansion, so he took Su Yu and Shiqi out to get some air.

Said it was a breathable stroll, after leaving the mansion, He Li went straight to Ruyi Building.

Ruyilou is a restaurant, famous for its special grain wine.When they came yesterday, they just smelled the aroma of the wine and didn't bother to taste it.

Su Yu thought He Li was here to buy wine, but when he opened his mouth, he was asking for someone.

The accountant did not think for a long time before he said: "Young master, I remember that Chen Ning's appearance is really rare. However, he is as cold as ice and has sharp eyes. I am not afraid that you will laugh at me. When that young master left yesterday, I stared at him curiously. After taking a look, his eyes swept over, and I trembled in fright, how should I put it, it was terrible..."

He Li said: "Then he hasn't come back?"

The accountant said: "Absolutely not. Although there are countless people coming and going in this restaurant every day, if it is that young master, I will definitely have an impression."

He Li walked out of the Ruyi Building dejectedly, stood at the door for a while, and then said, "Let's go."

Su Yu and Seventeen looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

**

Not long after they left, Shi Qi suddenly stopped.

A pink butterfly flew over from far and near, and hugged Shiqi's arm.

Shi Qi said in surprise, "Xiao Lian..."

Xiao Lian raised her head, with a frowning face, and shouted: "Cousin, you must help me!"

Xiao Lian was locked up at home by her mother, and she escaped secretly.Immediately, he came to Seventeen for help.

Seventeen said: "No reason, no reason, why did my aunt lock you up?"

Xiao Lian blushed, and said falteringly: "Yesterday...you already saw it."

Seventeen: "..."

No wonder, as a girl's family, Xiao Lian really lost her daughter's face and humiliated her with the Ruyilou incident yesterday.Even her parents may be pointed at by others.

Xiao Lian said: "Cousin, go back to my house and help me persuade my mother, she will definitely listen to you."

Seventeen was in his uncle's and aunt's house, his seniority was low, and he was soft-spoken, so he couldn't speak well.But today is different from the past, Seventeen is already well-clothed and well-fed, and in their eyes, he is a noble person.

**

Xiao Lian's home is still the same, unchanged.On both sides of the simple wooden door are the door gods of the Wei Zhai, which have faded after being washed by the rain for a long time.The couplet on the door seems to have been pasted not long ago, and it looks very new.

Seventeenth said: "The humble house is simple, I hope Mr. Li will take care of it."

If Heli bothered, he wouldn't have come here.

As soon as he opened the door, he ran into an angry woman head-on.

The woman was stunned for a moment, but before she could stop her expression, she saw the man who was cowering behind her, and then shouted loudly: "Xiao Lian! You dead girl, you disappeared in a blink of an eye, where did you go? "

Xiao Lian lowered her head and said with a guilty conscience: "Mother..."

"Come in!" The woman turned around and picked up a handful of canes, chasing after Xiao Lian, "Run, run again, and see if I don't break your legs!"

Xiao Lian pulled Shiqi to block in front of him, dodged left and right, and said in a trembling voice: "Mother, stop beating, look, who is coming!"

The woman looked at Shi Qi's face suspiciously, and finally recognized him: "Seventeen?"

Seventeen said: "Aunt."

The woman quickly threw the rattan in her hand, still a little unbelievable: "You...you're back?"

Seventeen said: "I'll come back and have a look."

The woman's eyes were red, and she hurriedly said: "Then... let's not stand here stupidly, go into the room and sit down. Xiao Lian, tidy up."

In fact, there is nothing to clean up. They use the tables and chairs every day, and there is no dust at all.

Seventeen said: "Aunt, these two are Mr. Li and Mr. Su."

"Okay, okay." After exchanging greetings with Heli and the others, the woman said again, "Xiao Lian, go and call your father back. By the way, let him go to the vegetable market to buy a few catties of meat first."

Xiao Lian was so happy that her mother stopped scolding her, and ran out quickly.

The woman said: "I'm going to boil some water again. It's cold today, so I need to drink hot water."

Seventeen said: "Auntie, don't bother me, I'll be leaving in a while."

"Then what can I do, since I'm back, I'll stay for a few more days." After thinking for a while, the woman asked cautiously, "Are you busy?"

Seventeen was silent for a moment, then nodded.

The smile on the woman's face couldn't hold back, and she sighed regretfully.

He Li suddenly said: "Seventeen has time, so I will stay at home these few days and don't need to go anywhere."

Seventeen was surprised and said, "Young Master Li..."

He Li said: "That's the decision."

Seventeen had no choice but to say to the woman: "Auntie, I'm afraid I will trouble you these few days."

The woman laughed again, and said, "No trouble, no trouble, it's best if you come back to live. I'll clean up your room in a while. These two gentlemen, do you want to live together?"

Seventeen said: "No need."

The woman said: "That's good."

After a few pleasantries, the atmosphere became strangely silent.

Shi Qi and the woman didn't know what to talk about, and they were very embarrassed.

He Li raised the topic and said, "How long did Seventeen live here?"

Shi Qi was about to answer, but the woman said first: "Two years. At that time, my uncle and I were busy with business, so I neglected him a bit. When he left, he didn't even tell us a word. The next day, I found out that he was gone. Sigh. ...We promised to take care of him, but we still made a mistake."

He Li was surprised and said, "Seventeen ran away from home without saying a word. For so many years, have you never had any correspondence with you?"

The woman looked guilty: "It's all our fault. We didn't notice Shi Qi's thoughts, and we couldn't dissuade them in time."

He Li turned his head, wanting to hear Shi Qi's explanation.However, Shi Qi lowered his head, probably because he didn't want to talk more.

The woman said: "When Qi Qi first came to our house, there were some problems in the house, and Xiao Lian didn't worry about it. He ran around with the boy all day long, and when he came back after working every day, it took him an hour to find Xiao Lian. Shi Qi is very sensible, waiting for us hungry, never complaining."

If you don't complain, you actually have other thoughts in your heart.

Shi Qi was polite and friendly to his uncle and aunt's family.

The woman looked at Seventeen, and smiled again: "Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, it was so big, I almost didn't recognize it. I used to always wonder if I will never see you again in this life." it's your turn."

Shi Qi raised his head, his eyes were a little moist, and said, "Auntie..."

The woman said: "Where have you been all these years since you left home?"

Seventeen said: "I'm sorry, aunt, I made you worry."
