Suddenly hearing the bad news, a layer of haze was cast over everyone's hearts.

Zhang panicked and knocked over the dim sum plate on the table. Jia Hu handed Xiao Daiyu back to Jia Min, and hurried over to grab Tu Yuan's hand and asked, "Why did you disappear? Was it an accident or was it man-made?" ?”

A thin layer of sweat broke out on Tu Yuan's temples, and he explained anxiously: "It was hijacked by human beings. The letter sent said that Chong'er and your uncle passed a section of mountain road on the way to the south, and suddenly the rocks fell. Thousands of arrows fell like rain, and then thousands of masked men rushed down and hijacked them in the chaos."

"The Western clan is extinct, the bandits along the coast are nowhere to be found, the Northern clan is soft and friendly, and the Central Plains is peaceful all over the world. Who would attack the crown prince and uncle?" His mind was buzzing. Jia Hu couldn't think of any enemies in the Central Plains.

Tu Yuan patted the back of his hand to reassure him, "Do you still remember the remnants of the previous dynasty who hijacked us many years ago, and now they have made a comeback. Some officials found evidence from the corpses of the murderers, and they kidnapped Chong'er and your uncle probably It was the remnants of the previous dynasty who did it."

"Didn't they disappear after that year? Where did they appear now?" More than ten years later, Jia Hu's memory of the encounter when he was five years old has been blurred, and he only vaguely remembers a group of people. Zeng Jie walked past their father and son and Tu Yuan.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but said: "For a hundred years, the remnants of the former dynasty have always been like this. Whenever the world calms down a little, they will appear to stir up wind and rain. Once the plan fails, they will hide deep underground to recuperate and wait for the next opportunity to emerge. .”

"Yeah, this group of rambunctious things are so good at hiding, they are harder to exterminate than weeds." Jia She nodded repeatedly to echo Lin Ruhai's words, thinking about the thrilling experience more than ten years ago, he still had lingering fears.

Zhang asked with red eyes: "My lord, has the imperial court sent someone to look for it? Is there any clue?"

Tu Yuan pursed his lips tightly and shook his head, glanced at the gloomy faces of the people, looked at Jia Hu and said, "As Mr. Jia said, the remnants of the previous dynasty have been hiding in Tibet for a hundred years and have practiced a whole body. It can hide people better than a mouse. The officials at the place where the incident happened mobilized tens of thousands of officers to search, but nothing was found.”

"Then what should we do?" Everyone was extremely worried.

Jia Hu tugged at Tu Yuan's sleeve, expectant and nervous in his clear eyes. "What can I do?"

Tu Yuan nodded without thinking, "Of course!"

His expression was firm, and his eyes were full of trust as he stared at Jia Hu, he believed in himself even more than Jia Hu himself. "I came to Rongguo Mansion in a hurry, one reason is to tell everyone the news of Master Zhang's disappearance, and the other is to ask Hu'er to help find them."

Strangely, Jia Hu calmed down immediately when he met Tu Yuan's eyes. "Brother Thirteen, tell me, what should I do?"

"I remember, Hu'er, your intuition is astonishingly sharp and accurate, and you have avoided many disasters. Then tell Brother Thirteen, where do you think Chong'er and the others will be kidnapped?" Tu Yuan held Jia Hu's He stared intently into his eyes and said, "Say the first thought that pops into your mind, don't hesitate!"

Under Tu Yuan's trusting eyes, Jia Hu blurted out with shining eyes: "Chuan Shu! It's Chuan Shu!"

"There are many mountains in Sichuan and Shu, and it is indeed a good place to hide." Tu Yuan said pleasantly: "That's great, I will go to the palace to ask the emperor brother, and ask him to send more people to search in Sichuan and Shu, and bring Chong'er and Zhang together as soon as possible." My lord, save the flames."

After that, he went out the door.

After walking three or two steps, he seemed to think of something, and immediately turned back to walk in front of Jia Hu, rubbed his head, and said softly: "Brother Thirteen is not in the capital for a while, be good."

When Jia Hu heard that Tu Yuan left Beijing alone, he didn't consider taking him with him, so he immediately refused.

He hugged Tu Yuan's arm, "Wait! I also want to enter the palace with you, and I happened to ask the emperor to go to Sichuan and Shu with you to find someone. After all, everything will go much smoother with me by my side."

Tu Yuan lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, nodded, turned around and said goodbye to everyone in the room, and took Jia Hu out of Rongxi Hall together.

Watching Jia Hu and the two go away, Jia Min put the youngest daughter down to play with the Sanchun sisters, but he found a reason and dragged Mrs. Zhang to the courtyard to have a private conversation.

"Sister-in-law, do you feel that... Hu'er's gaze at the Thirteenth Prince is getting more and more strange?"

Mrs. Zhang's power of observation is not as good as Jia Min's. Hearing this, she thought for a while and finally shook her head. "Is there? Isn't it still the same as before? The eyes are full of dependence."

"It's just too dependent." Jia Min sighed, recalling Jia Hu's every move with Tu Yuan just now, and continued to add: "You saw it just now, the intimate behavior of the two of them holding their faces and arms, like Eating and drinking water are common, and the same is true between husband and wife."

"And the most important point is that when the lord looks at Hu'er, his eyes are very similar to the way my husband looks at me."

Zhang's heart moved slightly, and he tasted a little taste, recalling that Tu Yuan's gaze on Jia Hu was indeed a bit like the tenderness between lovers.

She tentatively said, "Min'er, what do you want to say?"

Jia Min glanced around and made sure there were no outsiders around, then leaned into Zhang's ear and said, "I feel that there is something wrong with Hu'er and the prince."

Mrs. Zhang and the others are used to the intimacy between Jia Hu and Tu Yuan. If no outsider finds out, it may take a long time before they realize something is wrong, or they may never be able to take the initiative to find out.

Although Jia Min is Jia Hu's aunt, she used to live outside with Shi's family most of the time, and later married Lin Ruhai, so the chances of coming to Rongguo Mansion for a short stay were even less.Therefore, compared to people like Zhang and Jia She, Jia Min had fewer chances to see Jia Hu and Tu Yuan get along with each other, and he was able to see through problems better than Zhang and his wife.

Hearing Jia Min's conjecture, Mrs. Zhang recalled Jia Hu's past few years of growing up, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that her conjecture was possible, and an unbelievable expression appeared on her face unconsciously.

Jia Min shook Zhang's arm in shock, "If it's true, what should we do? You...do you want Hu'er to stay away from the prince?"

Mrs. Zhang came back to her senses, cleared her throat and said, "This is just our conjecture, maybe it's overthinking. Forget it, after Hu'er has rescued His Highness the Crown Prince and Eldest Brother and come back from Sichuan, I will discuss it in private." Ask him."

I remember that a few days ago, she and the master told Hu'er that as long as Hu'er is alive and well, he can do whatever he wants.

At that time, she said it so swearingly, she couldn't change her words!

Well, actually, she thinks that even if Hu'er and the Thirteenth Prince really have something, it's better than Hu'er going to the temple to become a monk.

Jia Min nodded, and then said sincerely: "Hu'er has helped me a lot as an aunt, and I hope he will be happy forever. So, no matter what my sister-in-law decides to do in the future, I just hope that I don't hurt Hu'er's heart. "

Mrs. Zhang held Jia Min's hand with a smile, and said firmly, "That's natural. Hu'er is my son, and I never want him to suffer even the slightest harm."

In this way, Jia Min was relieved.

The author has something to say:

Extra Story ([-]):

After learning about the situation of Mrs. Zhang, Jia Lian and others, Jia Amnesty calmed down and asked the restaurant staff again. "What about Jia Hu, the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion? His family is full of honors, and his younger brother has also become a princess. His achievements should not be low, right?"

To be honest, Jia Amnesty was still quite curious about how far he, the eldest son who died young, could get along.

After talking so far in one breath, the guy is actually a little tired.He took a breath, relieved the pressure in his throat, and said, "The situation of the eldest son is a bit special."

"What kind of special law?" Jia Amnesty asked eagerly.

"Anyway, his situation is not a secret in the capital, and the young ones know everything." The waiter pondered for a moment, and said, "Master, you are a businessman. You should have seen a lot of things in the world when you traveled all over the world, and you should know who Brother Qi is." Right? That’s the relationship between the Eldest Young Master in the Rongguo Mansion and the Thirteenth Prince, the younger brother of the current Holy Majesty.”

"What?!" Jia Amnesty lost his voice in astonishment, couldn't help but slapped the table and stood up. "You said that Jia Hu broke his sleeves with someone, and the whole city knew about it!"

There was a lot of movement here, which attracted the attention of some guests around.The clerk hurriedly pulled Jia She to sit down, and said in a low voice, "Sir, keep your voice down!"

"There are quite a few child molesters in this rich man's family. What's the fuss about this kind of thing? It's just that the eldest son and the thirteenth prince are together in a fair and honest manner."

"Furthermore, the matter of the Eldest Young Master and the prince being together was approved by the Emperor and Supreme Emperor Jinkou, and also blessed by the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager!"

Jia Amnesty wanted to scream again, but the second before he blurted out, he remembered the many eyes that his previous cry had attracted, and immediately held back his stomach.

Taking a deep breath, he asked in disbelief: "The emperor and the empress dowager, the empress dowager and the empress? How is this possible?!"

The man asked back: "Why is it impossible?"

"Don't you think this kind of thing is too shocking?" Jia She was going crazy.

The guy said calmly: "It's okay."

fine?Just the word "okay"? ! !

The clerk glanced at Jia She's complicated face, and couldn't help but said, "Young master, don't look down on Mr. Jia Hu. To be honest, Mr. Jia Hu and the thirteenth prince are actually very compatible, regardless of the fact that they are both men. .”

"After all, Mr. Jia Hu was awarded the title of knight by meritorious service at the age of 13. Now he has just reached the crown, and the title on his body is already equivalent to that of his predecessor. If it weren't for him, he is an elegant person. Traveling in the mountains and playing in the water and painting, if you only hang this idle in the court, I am afraid that you have already stood in the top position."

"In addition, no matter whether it is the Supreme Emperor, his elders or the current emperor, they all praised Mr. Jia Hu as a blessing in the world. I heard that the great plague in Wucheng was solved thanks to Mr. Jia. It is also because of this that the former emperor He was awarded the title at the tender age of 13, creating a double nobility in the Rongguo Mansion."

Jia She swallowed hard after digesting what the buddy said. "A double nobility?"

The guy nodded.

Jia She secretly wiped off the sweat from excitement, and forgot about Jia Hu and Tu Yuan being together in an instant.

Awesome, my eldest son who died young!

My own life in this world is also very good.

Different people have different fates, they are obviously the same person, how come their fates are so far apart?

One flew towards the sky, and the other fell into the mud pit. He suddenly felt a little jealous of himself in this world.

Unknowingly, Jia She said to himself: "I live a fairy life in this world, so I don't even want to go back."

"Master, what did you say?" The man only saw Jia She's mouth moving, but didn't understand what he said.

The foreign voice woke Jia She, who was in a daze, "Nothing! I just want to ask you, is that all the population in Rongguo Mansion? Does that first-class general Jia She have any brothers and sisters?"

Jia She twitched his eyeballs and turned the corner to inquire about the situation of Jia Zheng, Wang Shi and Shi Shi.

The clerk hurriedly told the news that he knew, "There is a direct sister who married Tanhualang more than ten years ago, and now Lin Ruhai, the inspector of Yanzhou in Yangzhou. They have two sons and a daughter, and the husband and wife are deeply affectionate. A few days ago, there was news that Mr. Lin will be promoted and return to Beijing."

Seeing that Jia Min closed his mouth after he finished speaking, Jia Amnesty couldn't help frowning. "Just one sister?"

The restaurant clerk wanted to nod, but then he remembered something, and his movement immediately turned into shaking his head. "That's not the case. He also has a younger brother named Jia Zheng. It's just that because of his bad intentions in the early years, he wanted to seize his brother's title. Later, the emperor went out in disguise and patrolled the Rongguo Mansion and found Jia Zhengjiu occupying the magpie's nest. In anger, Jia Zheng and his mother, Shi Shi, were expelled from the Rongguo Mansion, and Jia Zheng was deprived of his official position."

"There is a Jia mansion on Rongfeng Street, and it is home to Jia Zheng's family. They have done nothing for so many years, and they have been forgotten by people long ago. I didn't think of them just now."

Jia Amnesty regained his energy in an instant, and asked with interest: "Then how is the life of the Second Household who separated from the Rongguo Mansion?"

The clerk thought for a while and said, "I don't know much about it. I only know that Jia Zheng and his wife committed too many crimes in the early years. Their only son died early and their children died. Jia Zheng has taken in dozens of aunts over the years. Who ever got pregnant."

"It's so miserable!"

When Jia Amnesty heard that Jia Zheng was miserable, he immediately felt refreshed. He rewarded him with a piece of silver for the work of the restaurant, and after sending him away, he couldn't help grinning.

"Second brother, second child, you also have today!"
