The news of Yuan Zhao's disappearance could be concealed from the outside world, but it could not be concealed from the children in the princess's mansion.
Yuan Cheng told Yuan Musheng immediately. Even though he was usually calm, he was still extremely anxious.
But Yuan Cheng ordered him to take good care of the remaining children in the princess's mansion and not let anything go wrong again.
Yuan Nan'an's legs have gotten much better and he has been able to walk again these days.
Yuan Xuan was almost always with him, but he would always go back to the Eastern Palace once or twice a day to pay his respects to his father and mother.
This time when he went back, not only was his father too busy to see him, but when he saw Yuancheng from afar, he saw that his father, who was always at ease in handling things, was preoccupied with lawsuits.
He has grown a lot of beard on his face.
My mother was in the Eastern Palace, nursing her baby, and there was a lot of worry on her face.
But when asked, he said nothing.
Although Yuan Xuan has been recuperating recently, he knows that something has happened in the Huo Mansion.
When he returned to the princess's mansion, he found that not only was the mansion under martial law, but his aunt who came to visit Nan Nan every day had not shown up for two days.
After careful observation, Gan Tang was nowhere to be found.
Biyun was running around everywhere, and the entire princess mansion was shrouded in a depressing and heavy atmosphere.
Brother Mu Sheng, who was always busy, had some free time and came to help them review their lessons every day.
Yuan Xuan realized that something big might have happened, but Yuan Nan'an was still recuperating. In order not to let her worry, he and Yuan Musheng kept it a secret from her.
As for Yuan Zhizhi, she was still a tiny kid who couldn't even get down to the ground.
Yuan Musheng either carries her on his back or holds her in his arms every day. If she is unhappy, he just gives her something delicious to eat, and there will be no problem.
But they all ignored one person - Yuan Qiyu, who could run, jump and had his own ideas.
Not only Yuan Xuan noticed the abnormality in the princess's mansion, Yuan Qi Yu had also discovered it a long time ago.
Although he didn't know as much as Yuan Xuan, he knew one thing.
That is - both father and mother are missing.
First, Huo Yan disappeared, and then Yuan Zhao disappeared.
A huge panic rose in his heart.
Three years ago, one day, he suddenly found that he could not find his mother.
And then, he became alone.
Oh no, living with those stinky pigs.
In the past six months, although he has no worries about food and clothing, he can also read and learn, and he has grown up a lot and become much more normal.
But the premise of this is that he can see Yuan Zhao every day and smell the unique scent of his mother every day.
This will reassure him and calm him down.
But now, he found that the atmosphere belonging to his father and mother in this big house was gradually fading.
He was scared.
Has he been abandoned again?
So, that night, after everyone fell asleep, he quietly got dressed and went downstairs.
He took out the small package he had prepared early in the morning from under the bed.
Uncle Shen Er had taught him that when going out, one can be short of anything, but must not be short of money.
But he had no silver, he only had a pile of gold.
In the past six months, his mother, father, uncle, third uncle, grandfather, uncles from the Shen family... have given him a lot.
He had nowhere to spend it all, so he saved it all.
Now it all comes in handy.
The gold was too heavy, but fortunately he also practiced martial arts on a daily basis, so although he was small, he was still quite strong.
So he deliberately took out a piece of clothing with the most inner pockets, put a piece of gold in one pocket and another in the other.
Use a small cloth bag to pack the rest.
Before leaving, he remembered that in addition to the gold, he seemed to have a pile of silver bills.
These are the banknotes I used when I went out with my second sister.
But he was so heavy that he couldn't carry any more.
He looked around and finally took off his boots, divided the banknotes into two piles and placed them under his feet.
After completing these preparations, he tiptoed around the servants guarding the outer room and quietly went out.
He usually played hide-and-seek with Xiaobai in the garden, so he knew best which places in the mansion had more guards and which had fewer.
He had spotted a dog hole under the west wall early in the morning, which was just big enough for a small person like him to get in and out.
He was pulling at the weeds in front of the dog hole and was about to crawl out when his trouser leg was caught by something.
He turned around and saw Xiaobai right behind him.
Yuan Qi Yu quickly squatted down, touched Xiaobai's head, and signaled it to let go.
Xiaobai looked at him with a puzzled look, as if asking him where he was going.
Yuan Qiyu lowered his voice and said to it, "Xiaobai, I want to go find my mother and father. Will you come with me?"
Xiaobai tilted his head, thinking about the meaning of his words.
Yuan Qi Yu waited for a while and vaguely heard guards walking towards this side.
He didn't care about that and just said, "Xiaobai, I'm leaving first!"
After saying that, he climbed out of the dog hole nimbly without caring whether Xiaobai could catch up or not.
As soon as he went out, the guards heard the commotion here and pulled through the bushes to see what was happening.
I only saw Xiaobai.
The guards murmured, "It's nothing, it's the young lady's little white tiger, probably staying awake and peeing here in the middle of the night!"
After saying that, he left, still discussing, "This little white tiger is amazing. It eats so much every day, but it seems like it won't grow up."
Xiaobai stood there hesitating for a long time, looking back and then looking at the dog hole.
Finally, it thought about it and also crawled out of the dog hole.
…
Yuan Qi Yu did not go through the city gate. Instead, he was carried by Xiao Bai who came over and climbed over a section of the wall where there were no soldiers guarding the city.
Under the cover of night, he rode Xiaobai out.
But where can I find my parents?
Yuan Qi Yu thought about it carefully. He knew that his father was a general in the northwest.
As long as you walk towards the northwest, you will definitely find your father and mother!
So he took out the compass he had prepared early in the morning. It was a small gift given to him by Chen Yunzhou at that time.
After carefully identifying it, he pointed in a direction and patted Xiaobai.
"Xiaobai, let's go over there!"
"Don't take the main road! You're a tiger, it's weird to take the main road... Let's take the small road. Anyway, with you around, we're not afraid!"
Under the moonlight, Yuan Qiyu rode on Xiaobai, man and tiger, heading towards the northwest.
What he didn't know was that not long after he left, Huo Yan rode a fast horse from the official road towards the capital.
