306. The thief haunts(1/2)
Nangong Wen woke up and saw Ye Ling looking at her with concern: "Eighth Sister, how do you feel? Are you feeling any discomfort?"
Nangong Wen shook her head, stood up with her arms, hugged Ye Ling, and murmured: "Sister-in-law, I'm not dreaming..."
Ye Ling smiled and pinched Nangong Wen's face: "Welcome home."
"Aunt Eighth Aunt! I'm here! There's also a sister!" Ye Chen came over with Wanwan in his arms.
Nangong Wen's nose felt sour: "Well, I miss you very much."
"Did that bitch Chu Mingze bully you?" Nangong Heng asked.
Nangong Wen let go of Ye Ling, took a deep breath, sighed slightly, and shook her head and said, "No, he took me away that day. When he woke up, he wanted to continue to lie to me in a valley, but I couldn't accept the so-called seclusion. I asked him to explain, so he admitted that he was not his cousin at all...and then, he left and never appeared again."
"Does the bad uncle think he is very charming? He also wants Aunt Eighth to abandon everything and live in seclusion with him? It's so annoying!" Ye Chen frowned and said.
Nangong Wen smiled: "Just! I hate it! I'm fine. Since everything is fake, there is nothing to care about sadness. It makes you worry."
Nangong Yu sighed: "It's good to come back!"
"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you." Ye Ling said to Nangong Wen.
Nangong Wen shook her head slightly: "I'm not too hungry, it's okay. How is the mother and she okay?"
"My mother is just worried about you, she has been unable to eat and is weak," said Ye Ling.
"I want to see my mother." Nangong Wen frowned and said, then got out of bed.
"Okay, I'll take you back." Nangong Heng held Nangong Wen.
The brother and sister went out and went to Kuntai Palace.
Nangong Wen hesitated for a moment, and asked Nangong Heng: "Brother Seven, where is that person?"
"Run away." Nangong Heng said with a faint expression, "That's a lunatic pervert. He doesn't even want his mother and sister. Now he may have gone to sea to go somewhere else. He is just lying to you and want to harm us. Just pretend that nothing has happened and he will not cause trouble for you again. Relax and stay with his mother."
"Yeah." Nangong Wen nodded slightly, "I think that person is very dangerous, Brother and Seventh Sister-in-law are more careful."
Nian just received the news that Nangong Wen was back and before she got out of bed, she saw Nangong Wen step into the door quickly.
"My mother!" Nangong Wen ran over and hugged Nian. The mother and daughter hugged their heads and started crying. No matter how strong Nangong Wen was, she was a child in front of her mother. Nian's fears these days, and her empty heart finally came to fruition.
Nian took Nangong Wen, looked up and down, and asked her if she had been bullied.
Nangong Wen swore that there was really no. She was just under house arrest in a valley for a while, and the things Nian was worried about absolutely nothing happened.
Nangong Heng was sent to the door but didn't go in. After listening to a few conversations between mother and daughter, he turned around and returned.
After dinner, Nangong Yu went to Kuntai Palace.
Although it is no joke to say that one should decide who will become the only emperor through fighting, there are new situations now.
"My mother asked me to pick up Chen'er and go back as soon as possible. What are your plans for little sister and brother-in-law? Why do you want to follow us?" Baili Su asked.
Nangong Heng looked at Ye Ling: "I listen to Xiao Yezi."
Ye Ling still held Chu Mingze's latest letter in her hand, read it several times, thinking: "I think he really left this time. If he didn't leave, he wouldn't even save his mother and sister. But this incident also shows that he left a little suddenly. Even if he didn't take his mother and sister, he rescued the person, placed him somewhere else, and said goodbye, it was actually easy. He had always planned it, but this time it was a little abnormal. Something we didn't know might have happened in the middle."
If Chu Mingze wants to go to Yu Tian’s hometown, there is no reason to be anxious. His trick in Xiliang City is clearly warning Nangong Heng and Ye Ling not to provoke him. He originally expected to meet him next, but in the end, he left like that.
Nangong Heng nodded slightly and said, "Same feeling. If he wants to go out to sea and travel far, the boat cannot withstand the wind and waves, and cannot hold much food. He must have a big ship. But he was still in Jinyang City last month, living in Nian Tingxun's name. He originally planned to marry his eighth sister, but it was exposed very unexpectedly. Then he immediately rushed to Xiliang City, took Wanyan You and Yue'er away, and then went to Qianye City. He left in a few days, and there was not enough time to build a big ship."
"It's a problem. Unless he had prepared a ship before, but if the ship was big enough, it wouldn't be hidden. Especially in the past few times, we almost overturned Qianye City to the sky and searched all the islands dozens of miles south, and there was no big enough ship at all." Ye Ling said.
"Then are he leaving?" Song Qingyu frowned.
"I tend to think that he left, but the reason for his departure was unknown to us. As for the ship, what if someone came from another place?" Ye Ling said slowly.
"Little sister, what do you mean is that there are outsiders and boats, but Chu Mingze followed him?" Baili Su was stunned for a moment.
"Not following. No matter who comes, when you meet Chu Mingze, you will fall into his control. This is easy for him. Perhaps, he thinks it is an opportunity for him and he cannot miss it, so he left so suddenly." Ye Ling said.
"Anyway, if you want to chase Chu Mingze now, you must be prepared for a long journey. If the younger sister guessed the facts, he might not have gone to Yu Tian's hometown." Baili Su said, "If you don't chase him, he will leave and we will calm down. It's just Wanyan You and Xiao Yue'er... Alas, they were taken away from us, A Ying was both worried and swearing to save them safely."
Bingyue raised her hand: "In addition to Yu Tian and Yu Shu's hometown, I can also go to my hometown. The problem now is that I don't know where Chu Mingze went."
"This is the case for the time being. I will discuss it with my father tomorrow, and then go back to Xixia together, and then discuss and decide. Mengmeng, Bingyue, you two set out first, go to Qianye City, and then investigate, Yongsheng Island, Banyue Island, and other nearby islands to see if you can find any clues." Nangong Heng made a decision.
"Okay! Without further ado, let's set off tonight?" Bingyue immediately stated, no problem, she was very familiar with that piece.
"I'll go hand over it." Meng Yu stood up and went out after speaking.
"Okay, go to bed." Nangong Heng held Wanwan with one hand and Ye Chen with the other hand and went back to the room.
"Hey, where am I sleeping?" Baili Su asked. Qiye Palace is not small, but there are no empty rooms.
"You sleep with Meiren Song." Nangong Heng turned around, with a playful smile hanging on the corner of his lips.
Song Qingyu shook his head: "I object."
Baili Su sighed: "It's really not friendly at all! I'll go to sleep in the misty room!"
That night, Meng Yu and Bingyue packed up their things, left Jinyang City, walked southwest, and rushed to Qianye City.
The next day, Nangong Heng went to find Nangong Yu.
"Lao Nan, I have to leave." Nangong Heng made it straight to the point.
"No." Nangong Yu looked dark, "Where do you want to go?"
"I don't know where to go, but I just have to leave." Nangong Heng said.
"No matter where you go, it's just not possible!" Nangong Yu slapped the table and stared at Nangong Heng, "I promised to take my seat, I promised to support me, I promised to give birth to a grandson for me, and I asked me to take care of my children! In just a few days, you want to run away with Xiao Ye and Wanwan? Xiao Qi, you bastard, are you looking for a beating?"
"Old Nan, don't be excited." Nangong Heng sat directly on the dragon table, patted Nangong Yu's shoulder and said, "This is my home, where can I go? Whenever I go out, no matter how far I am, I just go to do business. After the work is done, I will naturally come back. I didn't go home for two or three years, which isn't it normal?"
"What's normal? If you don't go home for two or three years, will you still be right?" Nangong Yu expressed his strong condemnation, "I am not skeptical about you. What do you mean? I want to not go home for two or three years?"
Nangong Heng held Nangong Yu's shoulder: "Lao Nan, I, in the last time, I will save my fucking daughter. I will bother you at home every day in the future. Can you do it?"
"I am not without a daughter..." Nangong Yu muttered and shook his head and said, "Forget it, since I have recognized other people's children, I have to take responsibility! I know that child is also pitiful. He was taken away by the Chu surname and saved the people of the whole city. Not only to save the child, but Chu Mingze's disaster must be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be able to live in peace. He killed my three sons!"
"Lao Nan, you are the most reasonable man!" Nangong Heng smiled brightly.
"You go by yourself and keep Xiaoye and the child at home!" Nangong Yu looked at Nangong Heng and said.
Nangong Heng immediately shook his head: "That won't work!"
"Wanwan is still so young. If you go out and run around, you may encounter any danger. What should you do to take her?" Nangong Yu frowned.
"I can't live without Xiao Yezi, Wanwan can't live without her mother, it's that simple." Nangong Heng said.
"Outstanding!" Nangong Yu snorted lightly, "Since you have to take Xiao Ye, can you give birth to a grandson for me?"
"Wait until you have time." Nangong Heng came over and kissed Nangong Yu's forehead, "Old Nan, take care of yourself!"
Nangong Yu pushed Nangong Heng away, leaned back, looking disgusted: "Xiaoqi, who did you learn from? It's really..."
"Dear Lao Nan, I will miss you. Come back after the matter is done." Nangong Heng hugged Nangong Yu and said seriously.
Nangong Yu sighed: "Boy! Go, listen to Xiao Ye more when you encounter any problems, take good care of them, and come back early."
"Get orders!" Nangong Heng nodded with a smile.
Seeing that Nangong Heng was about to leave, Nangong Yu frowned and said, "Also, what do you think you will do if you meet the bastard who gave birth to you?"
Nangong Heng said two words calmly: "Kill to death!"
However, although he had decided to leave and had passed Nangong Yuna Pass, Nangong Heng planned to wait for another two days. Some arrangements should be made to ensure the safety of Nangong Heng and Nian.
To this end, Nangong Heng and Ye Ling prepared a lot of medicines and poisons for Nangong Yu and Nian to defend themselves in case of emergency needs.
Before leaving, Ye Ling made a table of good dishes and invited Nangong Yuhe Nian and Nangong Wen, and Ye Chen's little apprentice Nangong Zhe, too.
Nangong Zhe admired Ye Chen very much. When he learned that Ye Chen was leaving, he was reluctant to leave. He even asked Nian whether he could follow Ye Chen. Nian laughed and said that Ye Chen would come again in a few days, so he coaxed Nangong Zhe.
Nangong Wen came back safely, and Nian was much better. She didn't say anything to keep Nangong Heng and Ye Ling again, but just reminded her to be safe first when she goes out and ask Nangong Heng to take good care of Ye Ling and the child.
Nangong Heng left his most stable and relatively strong subordinate Yuheng in the Eastern Jin Palace and replaced Meng Qi as the commander of the guard. The only task he gave him was to protect his family. In this way, if something happened here, he could send a message to Nangong Heng in time.
On September 19th, it started to rain early in the morning, with a strong coolness, but Nangong Heng and Ye Ling set out according to the original plan.
The group was very low-key. Ye Ling took two kids in a carriage, mute slaves drove the carriage, wearing straw hats, Nangong Heng, Song Qingyu and Baili Su were all disguised and rode horses to protect him.
The speed of the journey was not slow. In the evening three days later, they entered a forest and walked through it and arrived at a place called Wufangcheng in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Song Qingyu took the lead and arranged an accommodation for the evening.
Ye Chen was not in the carriage at this moment, sitting in front of Nangong Heng and walking in the front.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came, and soon after, a man and a horse were approaching.
He is a man, wearing a black outfit, with white skin without blood, handsome facial features, looks like he is in his twenties, and a long sheathless knife hangs around his waist.
The road in the forest was narrow, and seeing that there were only two or three meters apart, the man rushed towards him without hesitation.
There was a carriage here on Nangong Heng, so he couldn't let it go. Ye Chen whispered: "Uncle, the person who came is not kind!"
Nangong Heng looked calm and his speed did not decrease. He saw the man holding the reins of the horse, stopping, and blocking the middle of the road.
"Who are you? Get out of here quickly!" Ye Chen asked with a serious face.
The man opposite moved his eyes down and saw the little man on the horse's back. He bowed and said, "Jin..."
Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, what's the point of getting into Jin? Entering? Getting closer?
"Where is Jin... Jinyang... Yang... City... is there?" the man looked at Ye Chen and asked with a cold face.
