Jiang Yixi was specially escorted from Wangdu to southern Xinjiang by Xiao Yi. A few days ago, Nangong Yue had received news that Jiang Yixi had entered the boundary of southern Xinjiang and came to Yaoping City, which was more than 100 miles away from Luoyue City.

At the moment, Nangong Yue hurriedly dispatched people to greet Jiang Yixi to Luoyue City. Unexpectedly, this person did not meet him, and even sent such a bad news first.

Sister Xi was robbed!

Bai Hui's report just echoed in Nangong Yue's mind repeatedly

Nangong Yue's lips became a straight line, Huo Di stood up and strode out meteorically.

Even if she didn't speak, the girls also guessed that she was going to the outside study and exchanged a quick look.

Without words, several maidservants were already very acquainted with each other. Bai Hui and Begonia hurriedly followed Nangong Yue's attendant behind him, while Thrush hurriedly notified Zhu Xing.

After a cup of tea, Nangong Yue saw Zhu Xing and a Qingchen man in the outside study.

Zhu Xing is so anxious that Yumei is locked in deep, the assassin's matter has not been resolved, and he suddenly did not expect to regenerate again!

After the two men saluted Nangong Yue, Zhu Xing gave the Tsing Yi man a look and signaled himself to tell the story.

The man in Tsing Yi rushed back to Luoyuecheng to report the news day and night. His eyes were recessed and tired, and a dark shadow came out.

He took care of his thoughts and reported Jiang Yixi's disappearance through the original place.

The night before yesterday, three soldiers, including a man in Tsing Yi, escorted Jiang Yixi's servants to Fengxian City. At that time, the sky was already dim, and he decided to rest at a post in the city for one night.Jiang Yixi is a female dependant, and the soldiers were inconvenient to protect themselves at night. After she and her maid Qingyi entered the post room, they retreated and rested.

No one expected that when he was about to set off yesterday morning, he found that there was no response and no movement in Jiang Yixi's room, and there was a gap in the door. They hurriedly pushed the door in and found that Ma Yiqing fell unconscious on the floor. , And Jiang Yixi is gone!

They inquired all the staff in the post, including the post and the residents, and carefully searched the entire post, but found nothing, only a messy bedding from the room, to determine who Jiang Yixi should be snatched away silently. Too.

So, the Tsing Yi man quickly returned to Luoyuecheng to report, and the other two and Qing Yi continued to stay in Fengxian City to search for Jiang Yixi's whereabouts to see if they could find any clues.

After the man in Tsing Yi finished speaking, the study outside was silent, and everyone seemed to hear his own breathing and heartbeat.

Nangong Yue took a deep breath, Shen Sheng ordered: "Zhu Xing, send someone to check!"

But just a few words, she almost used all her strength.

"Yes, Princess Shizi." Zhu Xing hurriedly responded with a fist clenched.

Zhu Xing hurriedly withdrew, and Nangong Yue uneasyly took Bai Hui and Begonia back to her yard, and was occupied by Jiang Yixi's captivity.

Who robbed Sister Xi?!

There are not many people who know that Jiang Yixi's death is far away. He hasn't even said that the original Yuyi and Han Qixia have planned to wait for Jiang Yixi to reach Luoyue City, and then tell the two.

Only Wang Guogong and Shizi and his wife knew that they should not leak the news

Nangong Yue thought about all the people in Wangdu, and did not expect any suspicious people.

Besides, what benefits does the robbery of Sister Xi have for the robbers?!

In this chaotic thought, Nangong Yue returned to the house. The little guy who had just taken a nap was awake. She absently played with the little guy, and her thoughts were still flying.

Or is this just a simple accident?

After all, the people who live in the post are either rich or expensive. Perhaps it is the robbers who have mischief taken away Jiang Yixi intends to blackmail

Or maybe someone was staring at their King's Mansion in Zhennan, so the people who followed the King's Mansion found Jiang Yixi?

Nangong Yue thought hard about all kinds of possibilities, but could not get an answer at all. There were too few clues, and things came too suddenly.

The sun outside was gradually slanting westward, and the sky was dimmed, just like Nangong Yue's gloomy mood.

This night, Nangong Yue almost stayed up all night. She could not swallow the evening meal to the next morning meal. Even Xiao Xiaoyu seemed to feel that her mother was concerned, and she had been very clever since yesterday.

The sun rises and sets again, the day of Bixiaotang is particularly quiet, and time seems to pass particularly slowly.

Until dusk, a guard returned from Fengxian city, and Bai Huitong passed Nangong Yue: "The Princess of the World, still did not find Grandma Han Dao"

The reality brutally shattered a glimmer of hope in Nangong Yue's heart, and the atmosphere in the inner room became more dignified.

Nangong Yue didn't speak, her mind was chaotic, and she felt like her heart was being tormented by the fire. She was gently patting Xiao Xiaoyu's hand and stopped unconsciously.

The sleepy Xiao Xiaoyu was lying on Nangong Yue’s lap, feeling the rhythm of her mother’s rhythm stopped, she opened her sleepy big eyes, yawned lazily, and issued a whine The sound is like a pitiful little milk cat.

Nangong Yue continued to flap again absently, and after a while, the little guy fell asleep, while Nangong Yue's hand was still unconsciously flapping, like her confused mind.

When the sunset was about to fall, Bai Hui came again, holding a letter in his hand.

"Concubine Shi," Bai Hui said quickly, "A little beggar came from the porter just now, and said that an uncle asked him to send a letter to specify that he should give the concubine."

At this time, someone inexplicably sent a letter, did it say

Several people in the inner room thought of going in one direction, and their faces all froze, and the air suddenly sank.

After opening the envelope, Bai Hui took out a piece of silk paper and presented it to Nangong Yue.

Nangong Yue unfolded quickly and looked down at ten lines. From her dignified expression and tight fingers, she could see that the content of the letter was not simple.

After reading the letter, Nangong Yue gave it to Baihui.

As soon as Bai Hui read the letter, his eyes were suddenly wide and he was furious, and the white goose egg's face was so dark that it almost dipped out of water.

This letter should be regarded as a blackmail letter from the kidnappers.

The kidnapper who kidnapped Jiang Yixi demanded that Jiang Yixi be the bargaining chip in exchange for the six princes Carrero of Baiyue.

Bai Hui's mind was chaotic, and his mind flashed through what happened during this period of time, from the time the clothes were put away, until now

Shi Zifei had previously speculated that the mysterious man who killed the posing and assassinated Shi Zifei might want to rescue Carrero, that is to say, this kidnapper who kidnapped Jiang Yixi had ten** that the mysterious man sent.

This person is still in southern Xinjiang, even lurking in Luoyue City!

This person is really bold!

Thinking, Bai Hui's fingers pinched the tissue paper subconsciously, and the back of his hand was raised with green tendons.

Now this blackmail letter undoubtedly proves the speculations of the concubine Shizi from the side, that the mysterious person is distinguished in Baiyue and believes in rules and orthodoxy.

"The Princess of the World" Bai Hui looked up at Nangong Yue with a complex look, "You mean"

Nangong Yue did not speak and stood up and said incorrectly: "Let Zhu Xing meet me at the outer study."

As she spoke, the thrush on the side hurriedly covered her with a cloak.

Nangong Yue walked out of the house against the breeze of the evening, and went to the outer courtyard.

She already has an answer in her heart, so no hesitation, no doubt

When Zhu Xing looked at the extortion letter in consternation, he heard the voice of Nangong Yueguo: "Zhu Xing, change."

A word "change" clearly showed her position. Zhu Xing looked subconsciously at Princess Shizi and looked at her with clear and firm eyes.

Although it was less than an incense time since she received the letter, Nangong Yue had made this decision after careful consideration.

Carrero is the prince of Baiyue. Although Baiyue is flat now, they have no deep foundation in Baiyue after all, if they let go of Carrero, it means that Baiyue has more variables, which means they are buried. A dangerous seed, I don't know when it will germinate in the dark

However, Jiang Yixi is Han Huaijun's wife.At the moment, Han Huaijun was fighting for the people of Central Plains and the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains in the battlefield of West Xinjiang. How could their Zhennan King's Palace not keep his wife?!

Nangong Yue didn't say much, and Zhu Xing immediately clenched his fist without disagreement.Shizi Ye said, when he was away, he listened to Princess Shizi everything!

After a pause, Zhu Xing asked respectfully, "Concubine Shizi, I don't know if I need to set up an ambush in advance?"

Nangong Yue pondered for a while, and nodded in agreement.Her black eyes flashed with light, and murmured: "This person knows that Bi Xiaotang still dares to do this, but he is afraid that he doesn't even care about us."

The mysterious person behind the scenes acted boldly and unexpectedly. Since he proposed to exchange hostages, he must have been fully confident.

Zhu Xing's face was more solemn, he stopped talking, and finally retreated with a fist.He still has a lot of preparation to do, but there is not much time left for him.

According to the time written on the stationery, the exchange of hostages was just two tonight, and the time was very short. Obviously, the other party did not intend to give them too much time to prepare. Moreover, the other party also requested that the number of people in Bixiaotang should not exceed three.

Zhu Xing mobilized several dark guards at once, let four of them ambush to the place where hostages were exchanged, and then took the remaining one man and one woman to the mountain dungeon to take Nakarero out.

Now Carrero cannot afford to lose!

Several people put Carrero with his hands shackled and blindfolded into a carriage and headed all the way to the north of the city. At this moment, it was already completely dark, and the cold silver moon sprinkled a faint light. The road is dimly illuminated.

A horse and a horse drove through the streets of Luoyue City. After half an hour, they arrived at an appointed alley. There was still a tea kung fu from the appointed time. There were already people in the alley-a little Figure.Zhu Xing in a horse-drawn carriage has a bad hunch at the moment.

Sure enough, it was a little beggar. The shivering boy wrapped in a tattered cloak gave Zhu Xing a letter asking him to go to the next location, Shili Pavilion outside the North Gate.

At this time, the city gate was already closed, but for Zhu Xing, to get out of the city was only easy with the token of Shiziye, and this is obviously also in the other party's calculation.

Zhu Xing's face was extremely ugly, but he was helpless. He immediately drove the carriage to change the direction and walked all the way north from the north gate.

After a joss stick, the horse and carriage arrived at Shili Pavilion. Not far away, a small river shimmered in the moonlight, and the surrounding area was flat and vast. At a glance, there was no one in the square, only a small boat on the river. Suddenly floating on the water, could not help attracting the attention of Zhu Xing and others.

There was no one in the boat, only a letter and a clairvoyant eye. The handwriting on the letter was very familiar and came from the mysterious man.

A few words in the letter asked them to put Carrero on the boat in a cup of tea, then untie the rope from the boat and let the boat run along the water.

But what about Jiang Yixi?!

Zhu Xing was thinking, and he heard a low exclaim from the female dark guard: "Zhu Guanjia, look there!"

I saw the direction of the upstream of the small river, about a hundred feet away, a small boat was docking on the opposite bank of the river, an oil lamp was lit on the small boat, so that people could see the position of the small boat at a glance in the dark, and could even vaguely see the small boat There was a woman in a cyan dress.

Zhu Xing now understood what the clairvoyance was for. He picked up the clairvoyance and looked towards Ye Xiaozhou.

At a glance, I was sure that it was Jiang Yixi.

From her slightly twitching nose, she was sure she was breathing and she was still alive.

Without further hesitation, Zhu Xing asked the two dark guards to put Carrero on the small boat in front of them, then untied the ropes and allowed the small boat to float away.

Almost at the next moment, a flash of silver flashed over, and the rope of the other boat broke, and the boat swayed down the water.

One leaf boat is getting farther and farther away from them, another leaf boat is getting closer and closer to them

It was nearly midnight when the unconscious Jiang Yixi was taken back to Bixiaotang by Zhu Xing.

The lights were still bright in Bixiao Hall, Jiang Yixi was temporarily placed in a small courtyard, and Nangong Yue heard the news as quickly as possible.

It wasn't until Nangong Yue took the pulse to the unconscious Jiang Yixi that he was relieved a little and followed her with a gesture, Bai Hui opened the medicine box and took out a needle bag

With the assistance of Bai Hui, Nangong Yue skillfully gave Jiang Yixi a needle, and then looked at Zhu Xing intentionally.

Zhu Xing talked about what happened during the exchange of hostages, and finally said: "Princess Shizi, wait for us to pull the little boat of Grandma Han and his grandma next to him, when he wants to chase Carrero again, his leaf Suddenly the boat was turned over from the water, Carrero fell into the water, and the dark guards also went into the water to search, but no one was found." The person behind the scene was indeed cunning like a fox!

Nangong Yue listened calmly, without showing disappointment, which was as early as she expected. Since the other party dared to make this request, it shows that he has full confidence in his heart.

"Well"

At this moment, Jiang Yixi on the bed suddenly groaned.

"Sister Xi!" Nangong Yue blurted out and hurriedly looked at Jiang Yixi.

Seeing the imperial concubine could not care for herself, Zhu Xing directly bowed and retreated.

On the bed, Jiang Yixi's long, twitchy, long-twisted eyelashes twitched like cicada wings, and then slowly opened his eyes. There was a chaos in his pupils, seeming to wonder where he was.

When Jiang Yixi saw Nangong Yue's familiar face, her pupils shrunk, revealing surprise, "Sister Yue!" Why did she sleep for only one night and Sister Yue appeared?

Jiang Yixi rubbed his forehead, feeling that his head was a little groggy.

Bai Hui hurriedly helped Jiang Yixi to sit up and put a big welcome pillow behind her.

"Sister Xi, it's alright, don't worry, let's talk slowly." Nangong Yue appeased Jiang Yixi's emotions, "Sister Xi, can you tell me, who was your captive in Fengxian City? "

"Captured?" Jiang Yixi looked slightly changed, looking at Nangong Yue in surprise, "Sister Yue, what do you mean? I was taken away?"

Nangong Yue's heart sank, and it seemed that Sister Xi had been in a coma since the moment she was taken away

Nangong Yue set her mind and promptly said: "Sister Xi, it is midnight on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month"

She said that Jiang Yixi's pretty face was even whiter. Twenty-fourth of the twelfth lunar month is almost over, but her memory still stays at the station of Fengxian City on the twenty-first night of twelfth lunar month..

My memory has disappeared for three days, so where are these three days?!just in case

Thinking that Jiang Yixi's face was almost bloodless, Nangong Yue hurriedly took her hand and said affirmatively: "Sister Xi, you're fine. You've just been comatose for three days."

Hearing the words, Jiang Yixi was relieved for a while, and finally came a little slower, and said to herself, yes, there is nothing wrong with her body, don't scare herself.

After letting go of his mind, Jiang Yixi only felt a sense of tiredness, and yawned lazily, unable to conceal the tiredness between his eyes.

Nangong Yue said with a smile: "Sister Xi, you have been drugged, you should be a little tired these days, and you will be well after a few days of rest"

Between the words, a tantalizing scent of food came from behind, and soon someone came holding the tray. A large celadon flower bowl and two or three small dishes on the tray were steaming white.

Nangong Yue was busy and said: "Sister Xi, you must have been hungry for not eating for three days. I let the kitchen cook some chicken porridge. You have to eat some porridge before taking a break."

Jiang Yixi thanked Nangong Yue, and under the service of a little maid, she ate porridge in a gentle manner with a small case on the couch.

Nangong Yue planned to leave, but at the moment she was about to get up, she saw a finger-sized piece of bulge on the skin beside Jiang Yixi's neck.

this is

Nangong Yue looked closely, but saw Jiang Yixi's neck skin smooth and flat as usual.

Could it be that I have been tired these days, so I'm tired of it?

Nangong Yue said, glancing at Jiang Yixi's neck again, and suddenly remembered an incident he had discovered when he checked the history of Baiyue a few days ago. In a flash, her pupils shrank.

Is it

Nangong Yue's heartbeat slammed a few times, but her face was quiet.

After Jiang Yixi finished the porridge, she smiled casually: "Sister Xi, let me take a pulse for you?"

She spoke naturally, and Jiang Yixi didn't realize it was wrong, only thinking that Nangong Yue asked her for a safe pulse, and immediately stretched out her right wrist.Begonia and Baihui on the side knew that Nangong Yue had already explored Jiang Yixi once, and vaguely felt that it was not easy.

Nangong Yue's fingers rested on Jiang Yixi's fine white wrists again. After a moment of meditation, he calmly withdrew his hands and told Jiang Yixi to take a good rest. Then he took Bai Hui and Begonia away.

The moment when Nangong Yue exited the inner room and walked to the hall, her face suddenly changed, with a look of solemnity in her expression.

She was too careless. She didn't find that Sister Xi was poisoned just now, and she still-

Gu poison!

Moreover, she couldn't solve the poison.

Because she was not good at Gu poison, she failed to find Jiang Yixi in the first time.

Thinking, Nangong Yue's eyes suddenly became very dark.

She ignored it!

According to the books about Baiyue that she read a few days ago, there is a large rainforest in the southwest of Baiyue, where there are not only strange snakes, worms, ants, but also a few tribes who are good at keeping Gu.

The Compendium of Materia Medica said: "Take the hundred insects into the urn and open them over the years. There must be a worm that eats all the insects. This is called Gu."

Gu is equal to the king of insects, and there are many types, each with its own characteristics, more changeable and even infinite, completely different from the medical poison of the Central Plains, and it is self-contained and makes people unpredictable.

There are many books about Gu in the history of Dayu, but they basically demonize and demonize it. I don’t know what it really is. The real Gu is mostly the unspoken secret passed on from word to word.

Unexpectedly, the mysterious man behind the scene was actually proficient in Gu.

Nangong Yue felt more and more heavy when she thought about it. When she walked to the yard, she suddenly stopped and asked, "Baihui, you go and ask Zhu Xing, the night you were rescued, the few were killed. Where are the corpses of the guards?"
