Chapter 2042 Homecoming
When Yuanqiong started to wait for Chu Huan to come back, Luo Duo and Liuli had been waiting for Chu Huan for one night.
Fortunately, both of them knew that Chu Huan was the King of Chu in the northwest after all, and had many soldiers under his command. It was inevitable that he would explain some things in Tongzhou. Naturally, it was impossible to think that Chu Huan was just to part with Yuan Qiong.
When the King of Chu was traveling west, Chu Huan naturally kept it as secret as possible. During this trip, he and Luodu were both wearing ordinary casual clothes. Even if they were horses, they also used a good horse with inconspicuous appearance but excellent feet, so that people would not see the clues as much as possible.
Chu Huan came and left Tongzhou, and there were very few people who knew about it, and Chu Huan even told him not to disclose it to the outside world.
Although Chu Huan was not worried about Pei Ji, he also knew that if the people in the world knew that he had suddenly left Hexi, all forces might not have caused trouble.
After the three of them met, they did not delay and went on a fast journey day and night. In just a few days, they had already arrived in Shuoquan.
Compared with the wars inside the pass, the northwest outside the pass seems too peaceful and stable, and the prefectures and counties are in order. Even the Shuoquan is also more stable. The city is full of traffic and bustling, and it is even more lively. In two days, it is a belief, so the city is full of lights and decorations, and a joyful atmosphere.
Chu Huan originally thought that Luodu and Liuli would follow him to the Governor's Mansion in Shuoquan, but after Luodu entered the city, he asked Chu Huan to return to the mansion first and make preparations for the time being. However, he and Liuli could only go to the Governor's Mansion to meet Chu Huan later.
After entering Shuoquan City, Chu Huan was already homeless, and he was worried about his family, especially An Rong was tied up, and everyone in the family was not anxious. Especially Lin Daier, who was a mother, must have been sad and anxious, so she didn't ask much. After parting with Luo Duo, she immediately rushed back to the Governor's Mansion.
Although Chu Huan has already been king, the Governor's Mansion has not been rebuilt. Instead, he received news that Chu Huan has become king and replaced the plaque of the Governor's Mansion at the door with the King of Chu's Mansion.
Before Chu Huan entered the palace, she obviously felt that the palace had strengthened its defense. There were people around her. When she arrived at the main gate, the soldiers recognized the King of Chu and hurried into the palace to report. Chu Huan hurriedly entered the palace. Before she could reach the main hall, a group of people had already come over. The first one was Su Niang. She had not seen her for a long time. Su Niang's skin was obviously a little whiter, dressed properly, and she was standing with a woman's bun, which seemed quite dignified.
Then several people followed. Seeing Chu Huan appearing in front of her with a tired face, Su Niang's eyes turned red. She stood in front of Chu Huan, not knowing what to say, but Chu Huan stepped forward and hugged Su Niang gently, and said softly: "It's okay, since I'm back, I'm going to have me in everything!" asked: "How is Dai'er now?"
Su Niang choked and said, "My sister Lin hasn't eaten or drunk for several days, so we can't persuade her. If it weren't for Mr. Du's advice, Sister Lin would have already!" But she didn't continue.
Chu Huan let go of Su Niang and looked back, but only saw Du Fugong and Bai Xiaozi among them. Mei Niang was also standing not far away, as if she wanted to come forward, but she did not come.
"King!" Du Fu looked solemn, and stepped forward to bow, but Bai Xiaozi had already knelt down on the ground and said, "I am not well-official, I ask the king to surrender!"
Chu Huan had already stepped forward and reached out to pull Bai Xiaozi up and said, "Don't be anxious for now, what happened? Let's talk about it in detail!"
Bai Xiaozi blamed himself for his anger: "King, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, but I am ah, but I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am ah, and I am a
Chu Huan was stunned and frowned and said, "Lilian Guard Buzhou? Brother Bai, what do you mean? Is there anything else besides An Rong?"
Bai Xiaozi lowered his head and did not dare to look up for a moment. Du Fu Gong said: "King, you have worked hard to travel. Go in and rest first. Things have happened. No matter how anxious it is, it is useless. We can only find a way to solve it."
Chu Huan nodded slightly and then walked towards Mei Niang. Before he could speak, Mei Niang said quietly: "Bao Yanzi has tried his best, and he can't deal with the opponent!"
After Mei Niang returned to the northwest with Chu Huan, she originally defended the Empress Yuanqiong in Jiazhou. Later, Yuan Qiong went to Tongzhou because of Wu Ren. Mei Niang could have gone directly to Chu Huan's side, but after thinking about it, she went straight back to Shuoquan.
She was actually very careful. Chu Huan took the queen hostage and fled from the Heavenly Palace. She had always been worried that Dingwu would secretly send people to the northwest. Dingwu had a dark yamen god-in-law guards under him. It was hard to guarantee that they would not sneak into the northwest and threaten Chu Huan's family because of Chu Huan. Although Chu Huan made arrangements in Shuoquan and had many guards, Mei Niang still returned to Shuoquan Prince's Mansion. The purpose was actually to protect Chu Huan's family nearby so that Chu Huan could worry-free.
In the hall, Chu Huan drank a cup of tea, and then signaled that Bai Xiaozi and Du Fu both sat down. After the two of them sat down, Chu Huan said to Du Fu: "Master Du, that letter!"
"Reply to the king, in fact, that letter was handed over to his subordinates by Brother Bai." Du Fu said justice: "Brother Bai, please explain the specific matters to the king in detail."
Bai Xiaozi nodded and then said to Chu Huan: "King, that was a matter of many days ago. That night, as usual, I checked the guards inside and outside the mansion before midnight, and confirmed that everyone was following their positions. Then I went back to the house to rest. But less than two incense sticks were lying down, I heard commotion from the mansion. Soon someone came to report that the lady was gone."
Chu Huan looked solemn and didn't say anything. Bai Yao thought for a while before continuing: "I didn't understand yet. When I figured it out, I hurried to see Mrs. Dai'er!" Having said this, he looked at Chu Huan.
When Chu Huan got married, Sifeng was introduced. Although Su Niang was a main wife, the other three were not distinguished. Although she has now become king and has rewarded all the generals of all sizes in the army, she has not yet rewarded her family.
Bai Xiaozi was not good at calling him other titles at this time, so he could only call Lin Daier "Madam Daier". Although Linlang is now helping with money and food affairs in Yunshan, there are three wives, Su Niang, Mei Niang and Daier in the mansion. Bai Xiaozi only called him Madam, which is difficult to distinguish.
Chu Huan signaled Bai Xiaozi to continue talking.
"Mrs. Dai'er was very anxious at that time. The lady was in the house and Mrs. Dai'er was right next to her, but in the middle of the night, Mrs. Dai'er suddenly woke up and found that the lady disappeared, so she was anxious." Bai Xiaozi looked solemn: "We searched all over the mansion, but there was no trace of the lady. It was not until Mrs. Dai'er found the letter on the table in the house that we knew that the lady was robbed. Before, Mrs. Dai was too anxious and was determined to find the lady, but no letter was found. When the letter was discovered, it was nearly half an hour before the lady was robbed!" He turned to Du Fu and said: "This matter is not small, so I sent someone to notify General Du immediately. After General Du rushed back, Mrs. Dai'er was ready to go out of the mansion to find the lady!"
Du Fugong nodded and said, "Brother Bai is not wrong. When his subordinates came back, Mrs. Dai'er was ready to go out to find the lady, but the other party only left a letter. Although she was taking the lady west, she didn't explain where she was going. So how could she find it? What's more, since the other party could sneak into the palace under the tightly guarded guard's noses, and even stole the lady next to Mrs. Dai'er, then the opponent's skills were naturally extraordinary. Mrs. Dai'er, chased her without permission, and not to mention that she couldn't catch up, even if she really encountered it, how could she take the lady back from the other party."
"It is natural that An Rong was robbed and Dai'er lost her sense of responsibility." Chu Huan said solemnly with his fists.
Du Fu said justice: "My subordinates were also worried about other changes, so they persuaded the eldest lady repeatedly. Since the other party gave the conditions, it means that the lady is safe and sound for the time being. If they act rashly, they are afraid that it will be unfavorable to the lady. Mrs. Dai'er did not chase her. She immediately wrote a letter and sent someone eight hundred miles to hurry up day and night to send the news to the king."
Chu Huan said: "After I received the news, I rushed back immediately. Don't worry, I already knew what to do at this time and knew how to do it, but if there was no other clue on the scene except that letter?"
"I checked carefully and there was no trace left by that person in the house." Mei Niang's voice came from the side: "I even suspected that the person had never entered the house at all, but later I found a clue under the window."
"Oh?" Chu Huan turned his head, "What clue?"
"I can't confirm whether that person entered the room through the window, but there are traces left under the window." Mei Niang said: "The snow has melted these days, and the ground is wet and not dry, and it is a little soft, especially the soil at the base of the wall under the window, which is even softer!" She frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "There are two places where the soil at the base of the wall slightly sinking down, but it is almost impossible to see it. But if I'm not wrong, someone should have stood there!"
Thinking of Lin Daier and her daughter resting in the house, there was a ghostly ghost outside the window, Chu Huan clenched his fists, and was angry, but she felt a little chill on her body.
"I originally wanted to follow the only footprint to find clues, but there was no trace except that place." Mei Niang sighed, "I thought about it for a long time. If nothing unexpected happened, the man had never entered the room."
"Didn't go in?" Bai Xiaozi was stunned.
"There is no footprint everywhere, which shows that his kung fu is extraordinary. I have said before that, in fact, you can't blame you for this matter. Even if someone really found him that night, he could take your life in an instant." Mei Niang said: "He sneaked into the palace, stole An Rong, and did not disturb the guards. He was not afraid of you, but he didn't want to be too troublesome."
The blind man opened his mouth and finally said, "If he hadn't entered the house, what would that lady be like!"
"I guess this is why there is a trace in the corner of the wall." Mei Niang said: "It is very likely that he had wrapped An Rong around with a rope, rolled him out of the window, and took things with a long rope, so he would inevitably exercise his energy. This left a trace in the place where he stepped on, otherwise he would not even leave that trace."
Chu Huan said: "You mean, he used ropes or something outside the window to sweep An Rong away?"
