mountains and seas

what?

Shang Qi immediately asked Shang Jun for an imperial edict, and led a team of soldiers to search out from the palace. Shang Lan hurriedly asked the guards to block the palace gate at the gate of the palace, and then galloped to the gate of the capital to seal the city gate.

Twice, because of Qi Ling, there was unrest, and the concubines and princes in the palace were even more dissatisfied with them.

Concubine Li and Yuan Guiren who lived in Cuihua Palace stood at the door and looked at Sou from the Shang and Qi palaces, and their words were very unpleasant.

"Hmph, it's just a proton, it dies when it dies."

"That's right, everyone can't have a good rest, what's the matter?"

"Oh, if you want me to say it, I can only blame Mr. Qi, it should be like this, so many guards can't guard him."

"It's a good thing he hasn't become the steward of their family, otherwise the Qi family of Dongling will be turned upside down."

"Boom..." Shang Qi punched the city wall, his eyes were red: "You two ladies, don't say such sarcastic remarks if you can't help, it's a life."

Concubine Li relied on herself to give birth to the Twelfth Highness, rather arrogantly: "Seventh Highness, although you are favored, it is not your turn to dictate."

Shang Qi: "I searched under the order of my father, what's your opinion?"

Concubine Li was very aggressive: "Of course not, did this Palace disturb your search by talking to Mr. Yuan Gui?"

Shang Qi was speechless for a while.

"But you have made my son unhappy, Concubine Li." Concubine Nian did not know when she would arrive.

In this palace, if one would be severely reprimanded or punished for contradicting the Seventh and Eleventh Highnesses, then contradicting Concubine Nian is courting death.

In the entire harem, the empress has real power and cannot be messed with. Concubine Nian is doted on, so she can only hide.

Concubine Li was so frightened that her legs went limp, she knelt on the ground: "I don't have any concubines."

Concubine Nian condescended and looked down at her: "Is that why I wronged you?"

"Concubine, concubine."

Concubine Nian Guifei didn't seem to intend to embarrass her: "Go away."

Shang Qi ordered the others to continue searching: "Why is the concubine mother here?"

Wiping the sweat from Shang Qi's forehead, Concubine Nian was very distressed: "I am also worried about Qi Ling's child, it is really a disaster."

Shang Qi whispered in Concubine Nian's ear: "To tell you the truth, my son suspects that it is Ying Xufei. Eleventh brother has already asked someone outside to help investigate."

Concubine Nian was suspicious: "Doesn't Ying Xufei only like beauties?"

Shang Qi: "..." So you don't think Qi Ling is good-looking if you haven't seen the full-faced concubine mother? : "Mother, don't you think Qi Ling looks good?"

Seriously recalled Qi Ling's appearance: "Well, just looking at the exposed chin, it really looks good."

After talking to Concubine Nian, Shang Qi saw that the search was almost complete: "Okay, mother concubine, you should go back quickly, my son is going to search elsewhere."

Concubine Nian nodded: "Go, I'll go and see that kid Zifu, he must be terrified."

After Concubine Nian left, Concubine Li regained her composure: "Hmph, look at her, she is so impatient to please people from Dongling, what a pity, these two are abandoned sons of Dongling."

Yuan Guiren held her back: "Sister, stop talking."

The drug was diluted, not so thick, Qi Ling woke up halfway.

He was tied and lying on the horse's back, so that his internal organs were displaced and he felt like vomiting. This reminded him of Shang Qi taking care of himself like that when he returned to the Xiyuan Palace, saving himself a lot of suffering.

The man on horseback was vaguely heard saying: "Take him to another courtyard to hide first. After this time, the limelight will pass, and your lord will come."

"Yes."

They randomly threw Qi Ling in a room, not afraid of him escaping, and untied the rope for her. When he was not so uncomfortable, Qi Ling wandered around the room to look at him.

He first went to push the door, and it was locked from the outside, and then pushed the window, which was obviously locked, but it was not locked, and a small gap could be opened.

Outside is a large yard, filled with various kinds of grass and trees, and two or three guards pass by from time to time.

I'm not sure if I'm still in the capital, I can only take one step at a time, and I don't know what kind of medicine they gave me, the internal strength is not up at all, and now I am a useless person.

One day later, Qi Ling found that the master here was not there at all, and it was a dumb girl who brought him food. Qi Ling was very friendly to her: "Since you can't speak, can I call you Xiaoya?"

It was the first time for Xiaoya to be treated so kindly, Xiaoya was very happy and kept nodding.

Qi Ling asked: "Xiaoya, is this place still in the capital?"

Xiaoya shook her head.

"not here?"

Xiaoya continued to shake her head.

What does this mean, Qi Ling was puzzled, Xiaoya pushed the food in front of him, signaling him to eat quickly.

After eating, Qi Ling asked again: "You shook your head because you can't answer my question?"

Xiaoya froze for a moment, nodded slowly, then quickly packed up the dishes and went out.

The hostile voices of the guards came from outside: "Little mute, wait for the brothers at night."

After the investigation in the palace was finished, Shang Qi couldn't wait to leave the palace gate, because he knew that it was absolutely impossible for Qi Ling to be in the palace, so he said: "Check out every house from the most corner of the mansion."

"Yes!"

The mansion in the farthest corner is the Major General's Mansion.

Being interrupted from his lunch break, Ying Xufei only responded lightly. After covering Xiaoxiang with a quilt, he put on his clothes and went out: "Your Highness Seventh."

Shang Qi said apologetically, "I'm really sorry to interrupt General Ying to rest."

It is still necessary to put on a show, after all, you can't tear yourself apart now: "Well, His Royal Highness is also under orders, and this minister is also very worried about Mr. Qi."

Are you worried about him?No wonder.Shang Qi slandered.

Soon a guard came to report: "Your Highness, everything is normal, and Mr. Qi has not been found."

One after another, all the guards came back and told him that no one was found. Even though he was puzzled, Shang Qi didn't stay here any longer.

Ying Xufei sent him to the door: "Send off His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness."

The news that Qi Ling, the prime minister's son of Dongling Kingdom, had been robbed spread like wildfire in the capital, making people panic, fearing that it would be his turn next, and the number of people on the street at this time was much less than before.

Shang Lan dressed as a commoner and brought two subordinates into the brothel.

The old bustard yawned: "My lord, we only pick up guests at night, why are you so early... go and wake up the girls."

The creases on the old bustard's smiling face, holding the gold ingot in his hand, could pinch a mosquito to death.

At night, the guests who came to play in this brothel found that these girls are not energetic at all today.

The next day, at the restaurant where Shang Lan was staying, the official in the brothel sent him a letter.

What was written in the letter was the secret mansions of various dignitaries in the capital, and there were many high-ranking officials and ministers in it. Shang Lan didn't dare to make decisions privately, so he took this letter to find Shang Qi.

The two guards who followed him looked at each other: Who said His Highness the Eleventh is innocent?

After Shang Qi got the letter, he collected the soldiers, copied the address into several copies and distributed them, and asked them to search carefully. He left a few places where the soldiers dared not go, and he took Shang Lan there.

After they dispersed, someone in the dark quickly moved towards the Major General's Mansion.

After listening to the visitor's report, Ying Xufei said: "You go and ask them to hide him on Hutou Mountain. I didn't expect them to investigate so quickly. I think I underestimated these two princes."

"Yes, this subordinate will do it."

"Hey, I didn't expect General Ying's private house to be in such a place." Shang Lan looked at this unique courtyard located on the outskirts of the city.

Shang Qi wiped off the dust from the corner of his clothes: "It's the last place."

As soon as the two took two steps forward, they were immediately stopped by the guards outside the courtyard: "Who is it?"

"Presumptuous~" Ying Xufei's unscrupulous voice appeared behind Shang Qi and Shang Lan: "The Seventh Highness and the Eleventh Highness don't know each other."

The guard hurriedly knelt down: "I don't know if it's His Highness the Seventh Highness or His Highness the Eleventh Highness, please forgive me."

He said it was an apology, but there was no fear in his tone.

Shang Qi: "General Ying, can we go in and have a look?"

"Of course you can. Finding Mr. Qi is the most important thing at the moment. You have to go on and cooperate with the two Highnesses." Ying Xufei personally opened the door to welcome the two of them in.

Shang Lan approached Shang Qi's ear: "What is this Ying Xufei doing?"

Shang Qi shrugged, didn't talk nonsense after entering, and ordered the people who brought him to search carefully, not to miss any places.

After a while, everyone came back and reported: Mr. Qi was not found.

Since no one was found, there was no need to stay any longer, and Ying Xufei didn't keep them either.

After leaving the yard and turning a corner, a little girl stopped them. The girl opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. She danced and didn't know what she was writing.

Seeing that she was also in tattered clothes, Shang Qi thought she was here to beg for money, so he took out the silver from his pocket and gave it to her: "Take these and buy some food."

But the girl kept shaking her head and returned the money to him.

Everyone: "???" What the hell is this girl going to do.

Suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, took out Qi Ling's jade pendant from the cloth bag hanging on her waist, and handed it carefully to Shang Qi's hand, and tried very hard not to let others see that this girl was Xiaoya.

When Shang Qi took the jade pendant, Xiao Ya deliberately pulled up his wide sleeve to cover it up. After checking repeatedly and confirming that it belonged to Qi Ling, Shang Qi asked, "Miss, where did you get this?"

There was another burst of gestures, but I still couldn't understand anything.

Simply, Shang Qi said: "Girl, don't worry, let's find a place to sit down and talk, this is not a place to talk."

After the two Highnesses walked away, someone in the dark reported to Ying Xufei: "General, the two Highnesses have confirmed that they have returned to the palace."

"Is there something different?" Ying Xufei said.

"It's not the same." He thought for a while, "It's just that I met a little beggar begging them for money, and His Royal Highness took her into the city, maybe she went to buy food."

Ying Xufei smiled and said: "That little beggar has eyesight and knows that this is a group of rich masters."

Xiaoya followed Shang Qi and Shang Lan to a teahouse, and there were only Shang Qi, Shang Lan and Xiaoya in the private room.

Shang Qi said: "You can't talk, can you? Then I'll ask you a question, you can nod if you are right, and shake your head if you are wrong, okay?"
