After having dinner at Luoxia Cottage, Xu Yulan left with Tai Zhuo's portrait.
"Master Su, the truck has been hitched to the carriage."
Su Xingyi pulled Su Ning'an and was about to walk out, "Brother An, we also want to go back to Guihua Village. It's getting dark and the road is not easy to walk on."
"Daddy." Shangguan Jinnian tightly grasped Su Xingyi's other arm. "Where are you going? I want to go too."
Su Ning'an hurriedly said, "Little Brother Jiu, Dad and I have important things to attend to. You stay home with Mom and your younger siblings and protect them well. We'll be back the day after tomorrow when the pastry shop opens."
"Then I won't be able to see Daddy for a long time?" Shangguan Jinnian glanced at the tiny Xiao Xier. Su Ningwen said, "Fat brother, you stay and protect Mommy. I'll go with Daddy."
"No, you have to be obedient. Your parents like obedient children." Su Ning'an refused.
Su Xingyi touched Shangguan Jinnian's head, squatted down to look him in the eye, and said softly, "Xiaojiu, your mother told me that you had a headache in the back garden. I was so worried that if you didn't get acupuncture, you would forget about your father when you had a headache."
"No, Xiaojiu will not forget Daddy. I will be obedient and stay at home and let Mommy give me acupuncture."
Su Xingyi said, "Then you must listen to your mother these few days and protect her well, understand?"
Shangguan Jinnian nodded, pulled Su Xingyi and walked out, "I understand. Let's get going before it gets dark."
"Xiao Yu." Su Xingyi called out with a heart full of longing and reluctance, "I'm going back."
Xiao Lingyu followed him out, gently took his arm and walked him to the carriage, whispering in his ear, "I... will... miss... you."
These words kept lingering in Su Xingyi's ears, causing him to drive the carriage out of the city without coming to his senses.
Xiaoyu will miss him!
"Dad, there's something wrong with you. Your face has been red lately." Su Ning'an stared at his profile for a moment, snatched the whip from his hand, and said, "Let me drive the carriage."
"Let Dad do it. Go in and sit down. Dad is going to speed up."
Su Xingyi took out the mask that Xiao Lingyu had made for him and put it on. Only then did he realize that this whole set of clothes, from inside to outside, was made for him stitch by stitch by Xiaoyu.
Xiaoyu not only dotes on the children, but also dotes on him.
The horse seemed to sense its owner's joy, and pulled the father and son along at a steady and cheerful gallop towards Osmanthus Village...
Xiao Lingyu took another dragon-patterned brocade handkerchief from Shangguan Jinnian's arms and said, "Xiaojiu, your handkerchief is no longer new. Mother will make you two new ones, okay?"
Shangguan Jinnian nodded and touched the clothes on his body. "My clothes are not new anymore. Mother, can you make me a new set of clothes?"
"good."
Xiao Lingyu then inserted an acupuncture needle into Shangguan Jinnian's head...
Yan Xiaosi drove the carriage to Luoxia Cottage, looked around, and determined the hiding places of the secret guards Duan Li and Duan Wu.
He took out a package from the carriage and knocked on the door of Luoxia Cottage.
Seeing that the person coming was Yan Xiaosi, Xingying immediately became alert and said in a deep voice: "Please leave immediately. My Ninth Young Master does not recognize you."
Yan Xiaosi quickly handed over the package and said with a smile, "This is my Ninth Master's spare clothes. Please pass it on to my Ninth Master."
Xingying recalled the scene last night when Su Xingyi washed Xiaojiu's clothes. "Okay, I'll pass it on. Please leave quickly."
"Thanks, brother. I'll leave now."
Xingying turned and walked into the yard only after seeing Yan Xiaosi walking away.
"Madam, these are the clothes that the young master brought to Xiaojiu today."
"I know, just leave it there."
After Xingying left, Xiao Lingyu hurriedly opened the package, carefully looked through Xiaojiu's clothes, and found two dragon-patterned handkerchiefs in the package, which he promptly put away and hid.
"Mother, it's a quarter of an hour now, you can remove the needle now."
West wing.
"Your Highness, you guessed right. They sent two secret guards." Xu Mo said.
"Okay, I understand. When will our people arrive?"
"We'll be here in three days." Xu Mo glanced at Feng Jinyu's expression and continued, "The Dongjun royal family dotes on the Ninth Prince. I suspect they'll send a large number of secret guards to protect him in a few days. We must hurry to Cangnan County and can't delay any longer."
Feng Jinyu raised his hand and said, "We will set off for Cangnan County in seven days."
Xu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, finally he could rush to Cangnan County.
I hope there will be no accidents during these seven days.
At the same time, in a room in an inn in Lingyun City.
Tai Zhuo was painting a colorful portrait in front of him.
The child in the color portrait is exactly what Xiao Xier looked like when she was three years old in Mu Chen Hanyue's memory.
Tai Zhuo put down his pen and looked at the black and white painting he had drawn, and felt that it was about 70% similar to the color portrait of Xiao Xier.
But in the eyes of his subordinates, it was completely invisible, simply because Xiao Xier had no obvious features on her face, and Mu Chen Hanyue failed to draw the expression that a three-year-old Xiao Xier should have.
Tai Zhuo only used black ink to paint over the colored portrait, so it is understandable that it is impossible to tell who the portrait is of.
"Knock..." There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
A man who looked like a guard entered the room and handed over a letter with both hands.
"Master Tai, I just received a letter from His Highness."
Tai Zhuo picked it up and quickly glanced at the contents of the letter.
"Notify everyone to infiltrate Beiyi at midnight today..."
After giving the order, Tai Zhuo took another look at the contents of the letter and burned it, then he cast another divination.
Looking at the hexagram, he frowned. The person who made the fragrant dew was indeed the same as His Highness had guessed.
Finding the incense maker means finding the child.
But, this person is hiding so deeply that it is not easy to find him!
Not an ordinary person!
Xiao Lingyu was still painting by lamplight. She could have gotten up tomorrow to continue painting.
She always felt that if she was slow, she would be found.
By midnight, thirty color portraits of Tai Zhuo had been made.
Shortly after breakfast the next day, Xingyun invited the stewards of the Si and Lu families to Luoxia Cottage.
Lu Yuan, the chief steward of the Lu family, and Si Mingming, the chief steward of the Si family, looked at the portrait in front of them and had the same reaction as Xu Yulan: the person in the painting was not someone to be trifled with.
Si Mingming said, "Madam Su, don't worry. I am in charge of Beiyi and the north. Even if this person doesn't show up, no one will be able to find out the source of the fragrant dew."
Lu Yuan, "Yes, Madam Su, I am responsible for the North Yi and the South Yi, and I will not let anyone find out the source of the fragrant dew."
Xiao Lingyu said, "Then I'll let you two worry about it. But if this person shows up, I want to know his whereabouts."
After the two left Luoxia Cottage, they quickly gathered their men and informed everyone about the matter...
After Si Mingming had carried out this matter, he hurried back to Huayang County and handed Tai Zhuo's portrait to Si Chuyu.
Si Chuyu took a look at Tai Zhuo's portrait and couldn't help feeling a little frightened. The Su family was in quite a bit of trouble.
"Mingming, just do as Madam Su says. If this person shows up, report immediately."
"yes."
