All the soldiers looked at Xu San's red eyes and listened to his hoarse voice, and they all fell silent.
Xu San was ordered to protect Zhao Xiyan's safety. However, something happened to Zhao Xiyan under his nose and he disappeared. During this period, Xu San was almost sleepless, searching everywhere for Zhao Xiyan's whereabouts.
They grew up together and had a deep friendship with each other. Xu San's almost crazy appearance really made them feel pity and couldn't bear to witness it.
"Xu San, you should have a good sleep first." A soldier said in a low voice: "The prince specifically asked us to bring you a message. This matter was set up by Murong Shen. It's no wonder you. You don't have to blame yourself so much."
How could he not blame himself or feel guilty?
He could not wait to find Miss Zhao right away, and he could not wait to cut Murong Shen into pieces.
Thinking of Murong Shen, Xu San's eyes turned red: "These days, I have been staring at Murong Shen."
"Murong Shen worked as an errand in the palace and only went out of the palace every five days. As long as he left the palace gate, there were dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him. It would be fine if he went back to Murong's home or the military camp. As long as he went
When you meet Miss Zhao, you will never escape our eyes."
The soldier frowned and said in a low voice: "Actually, your surveillance should be more subtle. Then you can follow Murong Shen and track Miss Zhao's whereabouts."
Xu San didn't say anything, but someone behind him immediately picked up the conversation: "That's easy to say. Do you think Murong Shen is just a freeloader and can't be at our mercy? The Murong family has many soldiers and is heavily defended. As soon as we approached the Murong Mansion, we were noticed.
How can we stay hidden?”
"There is not even a bird within ten miles of the Imperial Guard camp. In order to keep an eye on Murong Shen, every time he leaves the palace, we stay up all night, wishing that one of us could be used as three people."
Another soldier also said: "If Murong Shen hadn't also resorted to rat-averse tactics, we would have fought them to the death."
"That's it, we have fought secretly several times. No weapons were used, no lives were lost, and five were injured. However, the other party was injured more."
The soldier then stopped talking.
The Murong family has been entrenched in the capital for more than a hundred years. There are really not many personal soldiers on the surface, only a few hundred. There is no one knows how many people are secretly. And most of them followed the prince to Jizhou.
Xu San only had about a hundred people at his disposal. With this small number of people, he was already trying his best to keep an eye on Murong Shen.
Xu San took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and unfolded it about two feet square. On the thin paper was a map of the capital city. The specific locations of dozens of cities and towns were marked on it.
Xu San stretched out his finger and landed on the map: "The small hermit hides in the wild, the great hermit hides in the city. If I were Murong Shen, in order not to attract attention, I would definitely hide Miss Zhao in the market."
"In the past two months, Murong Shen has no chance to see Miss Zhao secretly. We have searched all the cities in the capital. Although we haven't found Miss Zhao yet, we have gained something. The uninhabited empty areas
Most of the house has been investigated."
"Now that you are back and we have enough manpower, we can search more carefully."
"Before the prince returns to Beijing, we must find the girl."
As he spoke, he lowered his voice and arranged carefully.
All the soldiers memorized it attentively and quickly dispersed.
"Xu San, go get some sleep." A soldier who was close to Xu San came over and touched him with his arm: "Murong Shen just entered the palace yesterday and won't show up in the next few days."
Xu San nodded.
…
In Calabash Alley.
The slow and leisurely days have gone too long, and time has become extremely slow, sometimes as if it has stopped flowing.
After all, Yu Han was still young and energetic. She couldn't bear it for two months. She felt a little uneasy and whispered to Zhao Xiyan: "Miss, we have been here for two months. I don't know when Xu San will be here."
Can I find him?"
Zhao Xiyan was writing chess records when he heard this and looked up: "Are you thinking about Xu Erwu?"
Hosta: "..."
A red cloud flashed across Yuhan's pretty face. She was embarrassed to admit it, but she didn't want to lie to her own girl. Her slender fingers pulled at the veil and twisted it around.
Of course, the master and the servant were never really alone. No matter where they were, there were four secret guards watching. Even at night, these four secret guards were also guarding the door.
Hosta was very uncomfortable at first. Now he can learn from his own girls and turn a blind eye to them. Anyway, they neither say anything nor interrupt, so just treat them as mute.
Zhao Xiyan felt a little sad and said softly: "I also miss my brother Chunsheng."
Since her rebirth, she and Xu Jing have been together. Now that they have been separated for so long, she is trapped in this small house again. She doesn't know when they will be reunited.
Seeing that her master was in a low mood, Yuhan immediately put her petty thoughts behind her: "The prince will return to the capital soon. By then, the young lady will be able to reunite with the prince."
The secret guards often heard such words, and each of them complained in his heart.
It's so easy to say. How could their master let Miss Zhao go? To say the least, even if Miss Zhao is allowed to go, can Miss Zhao, who has lost her reputation, still marry into the Beihai Palace and become the crown prince?
Zhao Xiyan's gentle and sweet voice reached the ears of the secret guards: "Well, I think so too. Hosta, it's too boring for me to play chess alone. Come over and play a game with me."
Hosta responded and sat down opposite Zhao Xiyan, playing chess with her master to kill time.
Zhao Xiyan is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is also involved in the hosta. Compared with the so-called talented women, she is not weak at all.
While placing the chess pieces, the hosta muttered: "Miss, Murong Shen has only come once. He hasn't come in these days!"
Zhao Xiyan smiled faintly: "Xu San is keeping a close eye on him. He wants to leave all the people watching and come to see me alone, which is impossible."
"He is not so powerful that he can cover the sky with one hand."
Yuhan was happy to hear this, her eyes sparkling: "Then when will Xu San and the others find us?"
Zhao Xiyan smiled and said: "It's almost there. Just wait patiently for a few more days." As she said that, she raised her eyes and glanced at the secret guards: "They have been very nervous recently, and they are watching us very closely. It can be seen that Xu San
I have found it near here."
Secret guards: "..."
Miss Zhao Liu really doesn’t treat them as human beings!
The youngest of the four secret guards finally lost his temper and replied: "Miss Zhao, don't think about anyone coming to rescue you. Even if someone comes looking for it, there is a secret passage under the house. Even if someone comes looking for it, there is still a secret passage under the house.
It’s useless…”
Another secret guard came over with a sharp look: "Talk too much!"
The young secret guard immediately shut up.
Hosta's complexion suddenly changed.
Zhao Xiyan didn't take it seriously. Since Murong Shen placed her here, how could he not have any backup plans? Being able to pull out this sentence today is not in vain because she deliberately used words to provoke her.
