Escape after crossing
Chapter 218: Ju Ziming Disappears (2)
Leng Chenming was interrupted by Leng Shixuan before he finished speaking. Leng Shixuan frowned and asked in confusion, "What guess?"
"The person behind this might want to use Dr. Ju to threaten you, little uncle Wang." Leng Chenming expressed his guess.
"Threaten me? What are you threatening me with? I am just an idle prince in the capital. I have no official position, no followers, and I don't care about the affairs of the court. What can they use to threaten me?"
Leng Shixuan was even more confused by Leng Chenming's words. He had no power in the capital, and no one would want to use him to deal with anyone.
Leng Chenming looked at the carriage on the side, and then looked at Leng Shixuan. Leng Shixuan was reminded by Leng Chenming and suddenly understood something.
"Xiao Chen, do you mean to say that the person behind this is using Divine Doctor Ju to threaten me to take action against the Second Prince of Lingxi? However, I have no grudge against the Second Prince of Lingxi, so why should I take action against him?"
Leng Chenming nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I mean. I think the reason they chose you is because they think you are an idle prince, the emperor doesn't value you, and there are no officials in the court who speak for you. They think you are easy to control, so they use Ju Shenyi to threaten you, and you have to obey their orders.
Moreover, they also know that our defense along the way is too strict for them to take action. It will take them a few days to reach Kyoto. If they don't take action now, they will have no chance. "
Leng Shixuan felt a little scared after listening to Leng Chenming's analysis. If Leng Chenming hadn't reminded him, he probably wouldn't have known that he had fallen into a huge conspiracy.
He looked at Leng Chenming gratefully and said, "Thank you, Xiaochen. Fortunately, you reminded me, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
"Uncle Wang, this is just my guess. I won't necessarily threaten you. The reason he said he didn't want to settle down as a genius doctor is because he had something urgent to do and didn't have time to tell you." Leng Chenming said with a frown.
"I understand what you mean. I also hope that he is safe. But aren't you too hasty to ask Xuanyi to tell Miss Jiang about the disappearance of Doctor Ju right now?" Leng Shixuan asked worriedly.
"Miss Jiang is a stranger, so it should be easier to investigate her, and she is very smart." When Leng Chenming talked about Jiang Ziluo, the expression on his face became much softer.
Leng Shixuan looked at Leng Chenming and immediately understood everything.
"So, you deliberately let Xuanyi tell Miss Jiang so that she could go to Kyoto, so that you could let her stay longer?"
"Hehe, Uncle Wang, how do you know everything?" Leng Chenming scratched his head embarrassedly.
Leng Shixuan glanced at Leng Chenming, shook his head helplessly, said nothing more, and went towards the carriage.
Although Jiang Ziluo and his friends were some distance away from Leng Chenming and his friends, fortunately Mingyue and Mingxi had left marks along the way, so Xuanyi and Xuanba rode at full speed and soon caught up with Jiang Ziluo and his friends.
At this time, Jiang Ziluo and his friends were setting up a bonfire in the open space beside the official road, preparing to eat something. From a distance, Jiang Ziluo and his friends heard the sound of hurried horse hooves.
As the sound of horse hooves got closer, Mingxi was the first to recognize the figure on the horse was Xuanyi. After Xuanyi got off the horse, they could see clearly that Xuanba was also coming with him.
Jiang Ziluo didn't know Xuan Ba, Mingyue whispered in her ear: "Miss, this is Xuan Ba, and he is also the prince's man."
Jiang Ziluo nodded slightly to show that she understood, then looked at the two of them and asked, "Xuan Yi, Xuan Ba, why are you rushing here in such a hurry? What big thing happened?" She knew in her heart that if it wasn't an important matter, Leng Chenming would never easily send Xuan Yi to find her.
Xuan Yi and Xuan Ba looked at each other, and then Xuan Yi bowed and said, "Miss Jiang, something has indeed happened. Doctor Ju has disappeared in Kyoto!"
"What? What's going on?" Jiang Ziluo was startled by the sudden intruder, but she quickly calmed down and stared at the other person sharply.
"Xuan Ba, were you the one who reported the message to the prince?" Mingyue asked with a frown.
"It's me." Xuan Ba replied with his head down.
"What's the specific situation? Tell us quickly!" Mingyue asked anxiously.
Xuan Ba raised his head, a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes: "Yes, this is what happened..." He told them exactly what had just happened.
When Leng Shixuan left Kyoto this time, he specifically instructed everyone in Prince Xuan's Mansion to be careful and cautious in everything they do while he was away.
Not only that, he also left some people to protect the safety of the mansion, and asked Ju Ziming to go to Baicaotang to see patients every two days.
As for Baicaotang, if there is an emergency, Ju Ziming can be asked for help at any time. On this day, Ju Ziming went to Baicaotang for consultation as usual. Along the way, Bai Wu hid in the dark and quietly escorted him. After arriving at the destination, Bai Wu returned to Prince Xuan's Mansion to continue to carry out other tasks.
Time passed and night gradually fell. However, when the sky was completely shrouded in darkness, Ju Ziming still did not come out of Baicao Hall. Bai Wu thought that maybe he was still busy, after all, this was not the first time this happened. So he decided to wait patiently.
Past experience told him that sometimes Ju Ziming did take a long time to complete his work. Therefore, Bai Wu was not overly worried, but just quietly waited outside the door, looking forward to Ju Ziming's return.
Unexpectedly, Bai Wu waited until dark, but did not see Ju Ziming coming out of Baicaotang. He was a little confused, but he still waited patiently. However, when Baicaotang closed and the waiters started to pack up and prepare to leave, Ju Ziming was still nowhere to be seen.
Bai Wu looked anxious, and quickly pulled a waiter to ask, "Excuse me, is your doctor Ju here?"
The waiter glanced at Bai Wu and replied, "Oh, you're looking for Doctor Ju. He left early today."
Bai Wu frowned, feeling strange. He secretly wondered if he and Ju Ziming had missed each other.
With full of doubts, Bai Wu decided to return to Prince Xuan's Mansion. Perhaps Ju Ziming had already returned to the palace, but he just didn't know it yet. Along the way, Bai Wu quickened his pace, hoping to find Ju Ziming as soon as possible.
When Bai Wu returned to Prince Xuan's mansion, it was already completely dark. He anxiously asked the doorman about Ju Ziming's news, but the doorman told him that Ju Ziming had not returned.
Hearing this news, Bai Wu suddenly became anxious. He realized that things might not be as simple as he thought. Where did Ju Ziming go? Why hasn't he come back yet?
Bai Wu was extremely worried and decided to go to Xiang Shu, the housekeeper, to discuss the matter. He went to Xiang Shu's room, told him the details, and expressed his concern for Ju Ziming's safety.
