Chapter 780 The disappeared embroiderer(1/2)

When Banxi talked to Ye Weilai, Xie Lingjiang, Yan Liulang, and Li Xian's family had actually arrived one after another.

Everyone stopped tacitly outside the Yinbingzhai yard, without entering the door, but looked at Ouyang Rong standing in the middle of the yard through the door.

All were silent.

Ouyang Rong picked up the ice-white jade hairpin. When the others saw it, he lowered his head slightly, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the ashes from the hairpin.

The handkerchief is white and stained with dry blood... Ouyang Rong had previously wiped it with it on the high platform of the main grotto. When witness Qian Chen was silenced by Wei Wu in public, he splashed blood on his throat on his blue shirt.

Now, he uses it to wipe the hairpin.

Zhen Shuyuan and Ye Weilai were closest to each other. When they saw Tan Lang grabbing the hairpin, their fingers were pinching their hairpin until they turned white.

"Longling..."

The ice-white jade hairpin was turned and made a sound.

After a while, he stood up and said:

"Young Master, it's the sound of this hairpin! The embroidered sister walks very lightly. She doesn't sound unless the wind blows. She is still the hairpin in the yard. She is the sound of the hairpin in the yard, so she attracts her servants to see her and finds that she fainted and was kidnapped."

She supported the ground with her palms, and she didn't know if it was pressing the broken porcelain pieces again. The wound was bleeding and she clenched her fist in half pain. At this time, she burst into tears again, so she subconsciously raised her bloody hand to wipe her tears.

Ye Weilai quickly grabbed the half-small injured hand and bandaged it.

Zhen Shuyuan stared at the Bingbai Jade Hairpin for a while and said self-pity:

"Tan Lang, it's all my fault. When he returned home, he didn't go to find the embroiderer immediately. He was careless..."

Ye Weilai couldn't help but speak for Zhen Shuyuan, feeling guilty:

"It's not my fault for the eldest lady. According to the explanation of the novel, there is also the time for tea to be deduced. When the sister of the embroidered lady was kidnapped, Mrs. Zhen had just arrived home and had no time to come. Instead, I was careless and shouldn't let Danxi come alone. I should have come and guarded me. It's all my fault for Nuer, ashamed of Tanlang..."

Ouyang Rong listened silently to Zhen Shuyuan, and Ye Wei was competing to take the blame.

He looked down at the ice-white jade hairpin, and then looked at his maid who was crying in a timid way among the broken porcelain pieces and bleeding from his palms.

This young man in Confucian shirt was a little weird at this moment. He laughed and said to himself:

"If you don't go to the dining table, just serve the recipe..."

Inside and outside the courtyard, except for the crying, it was silent at this moment and everyone heard it.

Li Xian and others were silent.

Even though they came late and didn't listen to it, the scene in the courtyard, coupled with the words of the women from Tan Lang's family, had already outlined something.

The moment the embroiderer rang, it seemed obvious what happened behind the courtyard wall.

At this moment, no one dared to disturb Ouyang Rong who was standing quietly in the courtyard.

Xie Lingjiang didn't dare to go either. In fact, she could think of more truths, and she was closer to understanding the emotions of the eldest brother than Li Xian's family.

I have a deeper understanding of the meaning of this sentence "If you don't go to the dining table, just serve the recipe."

Because Ouyang Rong had asked the embroiderer to bring her second senior sister before, he had told Xie Lingjiang when he met in the ruins of the house in the palace.

The little girl in white clothes was obviously the second senior sister of the embroiderer. She came to Yinbingzhai to find the embroiderer. After the embroiderer left Ye Weilai, she must have told the senior brother that all the messages of the senior sister... However, at present, this solemn situation in the yard still happened.

Xie Lingjiang empathized with a certain tumultuous mood.

She suddenly walked into the yard, came to Banxiu's side, squatted down, checked the lower half of Mixiu's injuries, she stood up, came to Ouyang Rong, grabbed his wrist, and whispered:

"Midius suffered some skin trauma, and the severe blow in the head would be fine for a while, it would be fine, not serious."

Ouyang Rong held the ice-white jade hairpin in his hand and said nothing.

Li Xian and others entered the yard one after another. Lu Ya went to the wall, walked around and returned, and said seriously to Ouyang Rong:

"There are several footprints on the wall, which are the same person, but the marks are slightly deeper, and they are embracing one person, so they are quite anxious to leave."

Yan Liulang also walked behind Ouyang Rong and whispered: "Mingfu, Beizhi has asked the people below to investigate. He will focus on supervising Xingzifang. If there is any news of the whereabouts of the embroidered girl, he will report it as soon as possible."

The young man in the Confucian shirt seemed to have come to his senses and put away the ice-white jade hairpin.

The gentle words from the yard made the inside and outside the courtyard silent.

"Thank you all, I'm sorry to waste some time for everyone. Prince, junior sister, Taoist Lu, you should leave. Pei Shisanniang has prepared a ship and set off from Xunyang Ferry to Longcheng. Well, the old master's proverb is still very accurate. If you listen to him, take the Longcheng route.

"Auntie, Wei Lai, help me treat the wound carefully, and then as planned, my luggage is ready. Then, with the prince, I will take the boat to Longcheng County, and then decide when I arrive in Longcheng. It is best to part ways, go back to my hometown in Nanlong first, and then wait for my news."

Ouyang Rong put away his hairpin, turned around, and his face had returned to calm.

As if nothing happened, calmly arrange everyone's route of action.

However, when Xie Lingjiang, Li Xian, Li Guer, Zhen Shuyuan, Ye Weilai and others saw this, they did not feel relaxed at all as if they were relieved, but instead looked worried and solemn.

Because although Ouyang Rong had arranged everything in his words and outside, he had already vaguely said what he would stay or not.

"Little junior sister, Master Lu, be sure to protect the prince during this trip."

Under the gaze of everyone's desire to speak, Ouyang Rong turned around and glanced at Yan Liulang who stood with a knife behind him, who was left by default:

"Liu Lang packed up his things, ordered some people to go together, protected the prince along the way, and delivered it to Luoyang."

Yan Liulang's eyes glared slightly, and then he shook his head vigorously:

"Mingfu, Beizhi doesn't want to go anywhere now. He just wants to stay in Xunyang City. At an extraordinary moment, Beizhi is the army in Jiangzhou. He has the responsibility of maintaining stability. How can he escape at the last minute and abandon the people in the city without caring about it."

Ouyang Rong ignored him and continued to make arrangements. Chao Li Xian, Li Guer and others said in a warm voice:

"Although Liulang is impatient, he is a good at doing things and can stand on his own. If the implementation of Zhongshou is successful, the prince needs to hire people, so he can let him do it."

Bushuai Li Xian and others were in a hurry to make things difficult, and Yan Liulang was already the first to say:

"Mingfu, if you don't leave, you won't leave. Wherever you go, you won't go! I, Yan Wuyue, don't want the glory and wealth over Luoyang. Today's matter in Xunyang City is important. Mingfu, let's stay. I have never asked you for yours, I only want this time."

His tone was firm and sincere.

Ouyang Rong turned his head and glanced at the Blue-clothed Captain who had never violated his arrangements before.

Inside and outside the courtyard, pairs of eyes looked at Ouyang Rong who was silent.

Perhaps Yan Liulang took the lead in speaking, and others no longer had any worries and started to speak out.

Li Xian asked worriedly:

"Tanlang, don't you go back to Beijing with us?"

"The prince left first. I have something to deal with. I cannot accompany you for the time being. I hope the prince will forgive me. If you have a junior sister, Taoist Master Lu Ya, you can leave the city with confidence."

Li Xian asked relentlessly:

"Tanlang, what are you going to do if you stay? Is this embroiderer's business? Is Tanlang confident that he can recover it? Yunmeng Jianze doesn't seem easy to provoke..."

Ouyang Rong turned a blind eye, turned around and reached out to Zhen Shuyuan who was staring at him:

"Auntie, is the string of eighteen seeds that Rong Zhen gave you still there? The embroiderer probably didn't have time to tell you, so she would lend her to her nephew."

Zhen Shuyuan stared at her nephew's calm face for a while, turned silently and went to get the Eighteen Seeds.

Everyone on the field, like Zhen Shuyuan, saw someone's attitude and they reacted inconsistently.

Xie Lingjiang lowered his head slightly and looked at the mess on the table:

"Senior Brother, we came out of Longcheng together. We have made an agreement to advance and retreat together and share wealth and prosperity. If you want to leave, you can go together, and if you want to stay, you can stay together.

"If you really want to find someone... to look for the embroidered sister, we can discuss it. Never act alone. How can we run away? You will face it alone?

"How about this, we can wait for you in Longcheng without delay."

Wei Mei also whispered and changed her angle:

"Tanlang, judging from the current situation, you can't do anything if you stay. In the lobby of Jiangzhou, it's enough for Yan Liulang to stay to maintain stability. He can stay, but if you take the risk, you are actually wasting your talents... The son of a thousand gold medal cannot sit in the hall.

"Although in terms of responsibility, you are a parent official in Jiangzhou, your talents should be used on a larger stage, such as Luoyang, which is the stage for you to show off your strengths and can benefit more people. Don't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons."

The Xunyang Princess sighed, and her voice was slight:

"Tanlang, let's go with us. There will always be a solution to the matter of Empress Girl, and it is not necessary to put it aside for the time being. In fact, from the fact that this half-small girl just fainted and was not hurt, it can be seen that the senior sisters of Empress Girl still know a little bit of a measure. Maybe they are a bit arrogant, but they are not completely distorted and do not understand etiquette.

"The embroidered girl's master will not hurt her. When we return to the spirit, we will gain a foothold and expand our strength, and it will also facilitate the subsequent conversation with Yunmeng Jianze. This is called long-term planning, which is much better than when it is like now. It is difficult to stand up straight when making chopping board fish..."

Wei Mei suddenly turned her head and pulled Li Dalang's cuff:

"Dalang, what do you think?"

As a friend, Wei Mei felt that Ouyang Rong might be able to listen to Li Dalang's words, so he winked at the eldest son.

Never thought that Li Dalang lowered his head and said nothing, and did not speak up to cater to him.

Wei Meiliu's eyebrows stood up and reached out to pinch his waist.

Li Dalang hid sideways and said in a urn:

"Although I also want Tanlang to go back to Beijing with us, I am not qualified to teach Tanlang's affairs. I am still a little confused about the relationship between men and women. Tanlang must be better than me... Mother, Tanlang can naturally consider what we can consider, so why should we persuade him again?"

Wei Mei glared and went to knock on Li Dalang's chestnut: "Boy, you..."

When everyone was persuading Ouyang Rong, Li Guer walked around the stone table and suddenly turned around:

"You said, did you first hear the sound of a white hairpin and then the sound of tea bowl breaking before entering the yard. Did the white hairpin that fell on the ground pull the embroiderer and the little girl in white pull the embroiderer, or did it fall to the ground when you entered the yard?"

Li Guer's tone was calm, and everyone in the yard was stunned. He realized that she was asking for some details.
To be continued...
