Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy
Chapter 141 Li Jinglan's disappearance is known to everyone in the court
Lu Bozhou rode his horse as fast as he could, almost going crazy.
The wife who waits for him to get off work every day, chats with him every day, and listens to him every day.
The wife who rescued him from the abyss and opened the door to the Lu family for him.
The wife who did her best to take care of the household chores for him and raise his younger brothers and sisters.
The wife who understands all his troubles and can soothe his anger with tenderness.
Was kidnapped.
How could he not be crazy?
How can I not be crazy?
After seeing someone holding Li Jinglan's handkerchief with blood writing on it, Lu Bozhou untied a horse and rushed out.
Wang Yongqing was so anxious that he kept patting his horse, "Bozhou, wait for me."
Wang Zhenyan sighed in the back: "From the blood letter, we can judge that the carriage is heading towards the south gate."
The South Gate is a death gate!
There is an execution ground inside the South Gate and a large cemetery outside the South Gate.
The South Gate is also the gate for prison vans and corpses.
How could Lu Bozhou not go crazy when Li Jinglan's carriage headed towards the South Gate?
Lu Bozhou rode his horse out of the city.
But I saw that the road ahead was endless and there was only an official road leading to the distance.
"Jinglan?!" Lu Bozhou ran forward towards the straight official road.
I ran until dark.
He ran until the horse was foaming at the mouth.
Lu Bozhou was thrown off his horse.
He stumbled to his feet, looked at the vast darkness, and shouted: "Jinglan, where are you?"
The Wang brothers behind caught up.
in silence.
After a long time, several lanterns came closer and closer.
Zhou Jin led the servants over.
"I have informed Uncle Lu, the Grand Secretary of Yin, and Jingzhao Prefecture. Duke Xu's Mansion has also sent people... I brought nearly a thousand people."
After he finished speaking quickly, he looked at Lu Bozhou.
"Find her. We must find her." Lu Bozhou's voice was soft but firm.
Zhou Jin nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll bring a horse over for you to replace. Auntie has already made arrangements, saying that you and your sister-in-law will go out for a few days."
Lu Bozhou hummed, walked to the side of the horse, raised his foot to step on the saddle stirrup, but his foot hit empty air.
His body swayed and he fell to the ground.
Wang Zhenyan leaned over to stop him and hugged him: "Bozhou, you are not in good health. Take a rest, we will look for it."
Lu Bozhou pushed his friend away calmly: "We must find her."
Wang Zhenyan wanted to say something else, but Wang Yongqing held his brother back and said, "Let's split up into four directions. Search in a fan shape! Search all the manors and knock on all the doors."
"Someone must have seen her. We must find her." Wang Yongqing took a deep breath.
Wang Yongqing knew Lu Bozhou very well. If Lu Bozhou couldn't find Li Jinglan, he would definitely be finished.
"If..." Wang Yongqing looked at his brother, "If you still can't find it, you go and take up your post, and I'll stay here and look for it."
Wang Zhenyan was stunned for a moment: "No, let's look for him together. Bozhou is as close to us as brothers. How can I leave alone when my brother is in trouble? When can't I be an official? Brothers are important."
Wang Yongqing stared at his brother: "You are the eldest son! It's settled. You take the position and I stay."
Seeing that the Wang brothers had separated and walked away, Zhou Jin reined in his horse and approached Lu Bozhou.
"I have something to tell you." Zhou Jin pointed forward.
The two men reined in their horses and walked forward a dozen steps.
"The head of the bailiff squad told me that he found the driver unconscious. The driver said he was knocked unconscious by someone."
Zhou Jin spoke quickly, "This was a premeditated hijacking. Someone used those two neighbors to trick my brother and sister-in-law out."
"I don't know what they are doing." Zhou Jin stared at Lu Bozhou, "But do you think those Taoists in the mansion are weird?"
Upon learning that Li Jinglan was missing, Lu Bozhou went crazy.
The Wang brothers need to stay with Lu Bozhou to prevent him from getting into any accidents.
Zhou Jin was handling things in the back.
After finishing the things outside, he went to the side yard to ask the Taoists for help.
However, the Taoists used the excuse that Qingyangzi was not there and refused to look for him.
Lu Bozhou's mind was now full of Li Jinglan. He could not think of anything else except Li Jinglan. He did not hear the implication of Zhou Jin's words at all.
He just shook his head in pain, "I don't know, I just want to find her."
Zhou Jin knew that Lu Bozhou was in great pain at the moment and tried to persuade him.
"I will keep looking with you. Even if I lose this job, I will keep looking with you! Until the end of time! But you must be strong and you can't give up."
"The more painful it is, the calmer you need to be. If you collapse, who can find your brother and sister-in-law?"
Lu Bozhou took these words to heart immediately.
Yes.
If he falls down, who will look for Li Jinglan?
Who can Li Jinglan rely on?
Lu Bozhou took a deep breath and asked in a hoarse voice: "What did the Taoist priest say to you? Repeat it to me."
"They said that Taoist Qingyangzi was not here and they could not leave without permission," Zhou Jin said.
Lu Bozhou raised his head and looked at the moon above his head.
A few days ago, the moon was still full.
And now, it is half bent and hanging high in the air.
The moon waxes and wanes.
Do people really experience joys and sorrows, separations and reunions?
"Brother Zhou." Lu Bozhou called Zhou Jin's name softly, "If anything happens to her, I will not live alone. I hope everyone can know this."
Someone doesn't want Li Jinglan to live!
Someone is using Li Jinglan to fish, not only him, but also others.
He could vaguely guess who that person was.
He could vaguely guess the reason.
The emperor would know in the morning what happened at home the night before.
After Yongxing's eldest son mistook him for Zhou Jin and beat him up on the street, but was knocked to the ground by Qingyangzi with one punch, he vaguely thought of something.
He thought that if he ignored them, some things could be treated as if they never happened.
But those people shouldn't have laid their hands on Li Jinglan.
Lu Bozhou looked around.
The wild grass is vast and the trees are lush and green.
Maybe there is someone hiding behind every tree.
Those people are waiting.
Waiting for the situation to develop further.
Then find a suitable opportunity to jump out.
Lu Bozhou took the soap knife from the waist of a Jingzhao government servant and tied it to his own waist, "If I can't find her, I will die with her!"
He turned his head to look in the direction of the imperial city and spurred his horse forward.
Zhou Jin kept staring at Lu Bozhou until he disappeared into the darkness, then he reined in his horse and headed in another direction.
……
After dawn, Lu Bozhou stood blankly on the side of the road.
People around him kept walking back and forth, passing on messages to him.
"We searched all night and couldn't find it."
"We've searched the east side, but there's no trace."
"To the west, no."
"I'm sorry, no..."
"No……"
Lu Bozhou held the soap knife with trembling fingers.
Thinking of the scene when he first met Li Jinglan.
He huddled in his room, coughing every day from the poisonous smoke, and thought he had tuberculosis and would not live long.
She opened the door and said, "Husband, I can let you out."
She stood behind him all the time, supporting him with her thin body.
In the past, he could study at the Wang family with peace of mind because he knew she was at home.
No matter when he came home, she would always greet him with a smile.
And now, this person suddenly disappeared.
Lu Bozhou raised his head and looked at the rising sun.
It felt like his life disappeared into the night sky last night.
Empty.
The pain is unbearable and the feeling is indescribable.
He spoke in a hoarse voice: "Keep looking..."
The morning sun rises in the east, reaches the zenith, and slowly moves westward.
This search took another day.
Lu Bozhou did not drink a drop of water or eat a grain of rice.
After dark, Wang Yongqing brought him a bowl of soup and said, "Eat something. It's not a good idea to keep going like this. If you fall down, who will come to help?"
Lu Bozhou shook his head: "She must have not eaten a single grain of rice... How can I eat?"
He rested for a moment, then got back on his horse: "There's still some places to look for."
Another night passed.
Then, another day passed.
The news of the disappearance of the top scholar's wife was known to the whole court.
The emperor was furious in the court: "How could the wife of the newly crowned number one scholar disappear in this important place under the feet of the emperor?"
The emperor kicked the Nine Gates Admiral to the ground and said, "The man left from the South Gate. What use do I have for a dog slave like you? Can't you even guard my city gate?"
The post of the Nine-Gates Commander-in-Chief has always been held by a eunuch. When the emperor called him a dog slave, the Nine-Gates Commander-in-Chief didn't even dare to raise his head.
"Someone, drag this dog slave out together with the gatekeeper of the South Gate and chop them into pieces!" The emperor narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice.
Upon hearing that not only the Nine Gates Commander's head would be chopped off, but also the gatekeeper of the South Gate would have his head chopped off, an official couldn't help but step forward.
King Zhao, who was standing in front, turned around and glanced at the official.
The official held up his tablet and rejoined the ranks.
In a moment, the emperor reappointed a new Nine Gates Admiral and a new South Gate Gatekeeper.
"The wife of the number one scholar, Mrs. Li, must be found. If she's alive, she must be found alive. If she's dead, her body must be found."
After the emperor finished speaking, he looked around the palace with his tiger eyes, "I don't want to hear any excuses."
All the ministers of His Highness bowed their heads and said, "We obey your order."
The emperor then turned around and prepared to walk up the steps.
A minister knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"Play." The emperor turned around with an impatient look on his face.
"I want to report Zhao Song, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion! The thief Song formed a clique for personal gain, appointed people based on personal connections, and bought and sold official positions. The Songjiang Prefecture Salt Field case was a brutal massacre, and it was his relatives who did it."
"The thief Song is full of evil, and is hated by both gods and men. He has the eyes of an eagle and the back of a wolf..."
Lord Zhao was not moved by what happened above.
But when he heard the minister use the phrase "eagle-eyed and wolf-like" he was so frightened that he trembled all over and knelt down on the steps.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty! I would like to resign and return home."
The ministers continued to chatter, "Zhao Song of Juguan has stolen power and brought disaster to the country and the people. He is the biggest thief of our dynasty! Now our dynasty is facing the disaster of the Dongyi outside and the rebellion of Zhao Song inside! The border is a disease of scabies; the thief Song is a bandit at the gate and a harm to the heart. There are internal and external thieves, and we should attack them first. There has never been a case of getting rid of the internal thieves before getting rid of the external thieves. Therefore, I request to execute Zhao Song before we get rid of the external thieves of the Dongyi."
The emperor glanced at Lord Zhao and walked up the steps.
He raised his hand, picked up the inkstone on the dragon table, and smashed it down heavily.
"Shut up!"
The inkstone fell to the ground, and all the ministers knelt down at the same time, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
The emperor stood alone in front of the dragon table, his hands folded in his sleeves, "Mr. Zhao is old and an important minister of the country, how can I allow you to attack me?"
Then he looked at Lord Zhao in a gentle voice and said, "The country cannot do without you for a day, Lord Zhao, please do not resign again."
Elder Zhao bowed his head to the ground and said, "I have allowed my relatives to cause trouble in Songjiang Prefecture. I am guilty!"
The emperor walked down the steps and came forward to support Elder Zhao: "This is your family's fault, how did you do anything wrong?"
The emperor helped Lord Zhao up and patted his hand gently, "I can't bear to leave you, Lord."
After hearing this, Lord Zhao was reluctant, lowered his head, and burst into tears.
I don’t know if it’s shame, regret or fear.

*The memorial impeaching Zhao Ge Lao is an excerpt from the "Memorial to Impeach Yan Song" written by Yang Jisheng of the Ming Dynasty to impeach Yan Song. Yes! It was copied. Do you think the author can really write an impeachment memorial?
I'm installing cabinets at home these two days. The master just left. I received more than 30 yuan in tips yesterday. I will update today, but I haven't written the third update yet. Well, what a willful author!
