The General's Mansion.
Half a day ago, I got up early in the morning.
The golden sunlight sprinkled in the yard, casting fragmented light on the ground through the mottled leaves.
The breeze blew by, like stars falling from the sky, flowing in the long river of stone slabs.
At the end of the long river, the isolated and isolated flamboyant tree with a bald head stands proudly.
It holds its head high and looks very proud. The colorful and graceful birds perched above its head make it the brightest cub in Wutong Courtyard.
Crash...
A warm sensation with a fishy smell came from the heel, and Delonix was startled!
The bastard Heiqiu actually dared to pee on its feet.
Tsk, tsk, tsk——
The roots of the tree moved slightly and the branches trembled.
While the Delonix tree was driving away the little black dog Heiqiu with a look of disgust, it also scared away its gorgeous "hair".
Squeak——
As the sound of the door opening was heard, the flamboyant tree immediately stood still, like a piece of wood (crossed out), like a soldier guarding his post, standing still.
"It's already this late, and the young lady hasn't woken up yet?"
Mingxia stood at the door, stretched lazily, looked at Chaoxi's dormitory, felt a little strange, and murmured softly.
At this time in the past, the little guy would have been making a fuss in the house.
It is really quiet today, and it was quiet last night too.
"Young lady, wake up..."
Mingxia gently pushed open the door, stuck her head in and called out softly.
Occasionally, if the little guy wakes up early and is not hungry, he will hide under the bed, wardrobe, wooden box or low table and wait for someone to find him.
But every time I was betrayed by the sound of my happy laughter, which I thought I had hidden well.
When he was dragged out by Mingxia or Luokui, he always had a confused expression, as if saying, "How did you know I was there? I was hiding very well."
I look back and think about where to hide tomorrow, and it always ends up being those places.
Sometimes I don’t know whether to call her stupid or cute.
"Ah, you hid it so well this time that Mingxia couldn't find it..."
Mingxia was rummaging around in the house, making noises, while complimenting her on her good hiding, and listening attentively for the little one's upcoming laughter.
Mingxia praised the little guy five or six times, calling him "extremely smart", "a master of hiding", and "remarkably resourceful", but he didn't hear the little guy laugh.
hiss--
That’s not right. In the past, she would laugh after only three times at most, right?
"Little Miss, it's time to eat. Let's eat first and then play hide-and-seek, okay?"
Mingxia shouted while looking for her regular hiding places.
I searched the whole house, but there was no trace of the little red fat doll.
"Where... where is the young lady going?" Ming Xia panicked. "Young lady, come out quickly. You really won this time. You got two big chicken legs. Come out and eat..."
The temptation of chicken legs is not there.
She is not in the room.
Mingxia turned and ran out. She bumped into Luokui who was carrying breakfast back and almost knocked over the tray.
"What's wrong? Where are you going in such a hurry?"
"Miss...Miss seems to be missing!" Mingxia said anxiously.
…
Rumble...
This devastating news instantly shook the general's mansion.
"Miss, where are you, Miss?"
"Little Miss, please come out quickly. Let's go see the lady..."
"Little sister, the kitchen made five chicken legs today. I'll save them all for you. Come out and eat..."
"Miss, we've cleared the bushes in the garden and searched, but nothing."
"There's nothing at Lanyue Tower either..."
"We servants haven't found it here either..."
"I didn't find it..."
"No……"
Everyone in the mansion went out to conduct a carpet search, turning over every corner. More than half an hour had passed, but they still couldn't find even a footprint.
Where can I go every day?
Although she is naughty, she will never run around without caring about her family's worries.
Something must have happened!
"Where can she go? Where can she go? Where can she go?" Rong Xuqing was spinning around in a panic.
She quickly calmed down.
With her parents away, she was the backbone of the family. She couldn't panic and had to find a way...
"Uncle Wang, take the token from the General's Mansion and go to the four city gates to ask the guards if they have seen Chaoxi. I hope she is still in the city and not abducted by criminals."
"Everyone else should spread out from the General's Mansion and search door to door!"
Rong Xuqing ordered loudly.
"yes."
Everyone hurried towards the gate, but was stopped by someone.
clang--
The sound of two guns colliding.
"Miss Rong, you can't go out for the time being." The sergeant in charge stepped forward and said expressionlessly.
Rong Xuqing paused, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he looked at the man with a chilling look.
"The death of the Northern Barbarian Princess has not yet been investigated, and there is still debate about whether my mother is the murderer. His Majesty only ordered you to guard the General's Mansion. No one in the mansion is allowed to leave without reason. This is not imprisonment."
"Now that my youngest sister is missing, and you won't let us go out to look for her, can you bear the responsibility if something really happens to her?"
“Get out of the way!”
Although her tone was steady, one could vaguely hear an innate majesty and the arrogance of an aristocratic family that had been ingrained in her bones since childhood.
"Miss Rong, it is our duty. You can send a few people out to search, but the entire mansion must not be mobilized."
The leading soldier knew Rong Baichuan's position in the court. Since the situation was indeed unclear, he chose to give in.
"I'll say it again! Get out of the way!" Rong Xuqing refused to give in.
"Uncle Wang."
Clang clang clang clang…
The next second, the sound of countless swords being drawn was heard.
All the guards in the general's mansion drew their swords and faced the soldiers blocking the gate, each with a solemn expression.
