Chapter 171. Bad News
Zhuge Yi took some banknotes, and found a restaurant for dinner with Nan Puyue.
There are a lot of people in the restaurant, usually the dignitaries sit there.
Zhuge Yi ordered several dishes in one go, almost all of which were Nan Puyue's favorite food.
Halfway through eating, a slightly ear-piercing voice came over.
"Have you heard? Wei Situ disappeared a month ago."
A few meters away from Zhuge Yi's table, a gorgeously dressed man just sat down, and said mysteriously to the man sitting next to him.
The two were startled at the same time!
The man next to him asked while pouring the wine: "Is that the little boy who likes to wear red clothes?"
"Of course, it's another case without a clue. Like the previous two cases, there is no clue. If people say it's gone, it's gone. I heard from people on the street that they were chased and killed by some masked men. There is no audio either."
"Recently there has been a lot of trouble, and there have been many major events. Let's say that the favorite concubine who entered the palace half a year ago is really a disaster. It has confused the current king. He can't distinguish between black and white. He has been recommended several times to no avail. I don't know how many ministers. They are chilling."
"Hey, that's all. Now that the king's health is getting worse, this person will have to be replaced sooner or later."
"Shh~ You can't talk nonsense, you're going to be beheaded." After speaking, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
……
The two men were still talking, Zhuge Yi and Nan Puyue were already stunned when they heard this, and lost their souls.
"Brother...is he missing?" Nan Puyue looked at Zhuge Yi in disbelief, wanting to make sure if she had heard correctly.
Frowning, the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense, Zhuge Yi said: "It seems that a lot of things have happened in the past six months." Looking at him, "Come with me to the Taifu's residence."
Nan Puyue nodded, the matter was of great importance, and she was in no mood to eat.
After paying the bill, the two got up and left together with solemn faces.
In Taifu's residence.
When he saw Zhuge Yi, Zhuge Boran was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment, and he couldn't calm down his excited heart until he confirmed that it was his son.
From the beginning to the end, Zhuge Yi was much calmer. After a simple explanation, he finally asked about Lin Qingchen.
At this moment, Zhuge Boran had no time to be happy, his smile froze immediately after being asked this question, and then gradually sank.
Of course he knew about it, and when he got the news, he was sleepless all night.
"Father, does anyone know who wants to harm him?"
Seeing that Zhuge Boran's face was slightly sad, Zhuge Yi asked quickly.
Feeling sad, Zhuge Boran said in a deep voice: "I just made a guess for my father, I dare not confirm it."
Seeing a hint of it, Zhuge Yi said, "Father guesses who it is?"
Sighing heavily, Zhuge Boran patiently explained to him.
From hearing the news that Zhuge Yi and Nan Puyue were killed by Xiao Liao, to Lin Qingchen going to Nanpu Country to help, to successfully killing the thief with the help of Zuo Lingxiu... and finally to the current tragedy, After thinking about it together, it is not difficult to imagine that it is very likely that Zuo Lingxiu did it.
As if thinking, Zhuge Yi said: "Now that woman is powerful and favored, it may be difficult to find out the truth."
Zhuge Boran expressed the same feeling: "As a father, I have been investigating secretly, but until today, there is still no clue." Speaking of this, another thing came to mind, "And my grandson, since he learned about Qingchen's accident, On the second day, I heard that they also disappeared together.”
"Qi'er?!" Nan Puyue's heart tightened.
Because there was a period of father-son relationship with this child, and the love for him during that period was even more incomparable. At this moment, when he heard the bad news, he was obviously anxious.
"Don't worry, at least we haven't heard the worst news yet. The most important thing for us now is to hurry up and find out who did it." Zhuge Yi patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
Similarly, he was only calm on the surface, but his heart was still surging.Knowing that he was once a guilty body, and now the situation is unfavorable, he can only think of countermeasures.
And if they want to find out what happened, they must first start with Zuo Lingxiu. Although they are not sure that she did it, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, they will investigate to the end.
Nan Puyue is someone who is acquainted with her. She still remembers that the first time they met was in Luoyang two years ago. At that time, many unhappy things happened, and then it evolved later. Thinking about it now, the relationship between her and her , I'm afraid it's just estrangement.
After careful consideration, Zhuge Boran finally said: "In my opinion, let me lead the way for you. This matter is not that simple. If you want to see that woman, I am afraid that only I can help you."
"What is father going to do?"
Zhuge Boran stared straight ahead, walked two steps slowly and said: "There will be hunting activities in a few days, and then the king will definitely take that beloved concubine to go there, so you two will mix with my attendants, and then look for opportunities to get close to her." . " Having said that, he said worriedly, "However, I'm only worried about the danger if you approach so rashly."
After the two pondered for a while, Zhuge Yi said: "It's okay, I have martial arts self-defense, and if things go wrong, I will find a way to get out." He said and looked at Nan Puyue, "You don't have to go, Going to one more will only increase the trouble, I am enough alone."
Of course, Nan Puyue was worried, and quickly said: "How can this be done? In case something happens, who can help you then?"
My father is here, so it's hard to say some sour words of concern, so I have to stick to his ear and lower my voice: "I'm worried about you, listen to me this time, okay?"
Knowing that she was only acting as a drag bottle, Nan Puyue suddenly felt that she was useless, struggled for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "Then you must be more careful, and don't get hurt in the slightest."
"Okay, I promise you."
"I hope you will do what you say."
Zhuge Yi smiled back, but he was not very sure in his heart.
*****
After several days of anxiety and planning, this day finally arrived.
In the huge royal enclosure, there are many people, and it is possible to distinguish which are nobles and which are guards from the clothing.
"drive!"
A clear and sharp sound suddenly sounded, and the black steed raised its metal hooves and stepped on the grass outside Jingzi City. The sun was warm and the hooves were clanging, leaving the dozen or so followers far behind.
"Master Sima is here too."
A man in a second-rank official uniform let out a long laugh, drove his horse forward, and said to Sima Yu with a smile.
Sima Yu tightened the reins, let out a cry, and stopped just in front of him.
"It's just for fun."
His voice was warm, and he replied with a smile like a spring breeze.
Zhuge Yi followed in Zhuge Boran's formation and saw him from a distance.
He has not changed at all, except that he has changed into a new outfit because of today's special situation, his speech and demeanor are still as gentle and gentle as before.
