Chapter 413 (two chapters in one)
The secret passage exit is very well disguised. No one would think that this is a secret passage leading directly to the palace, and this exit can only be exited but not entered. It is a magical design!
Everyone had no time to study the magic of the cave entrance, and they looked around for traces of Xiao Rui's departure.
After going down the mountain, there was no trace at all. There was no specific direction to go east, west, south, north and north.
"Chasing, no one in four directions will fall!" Ruan Hui divided his guards into four groups and chased them out first.
"I think we should first analyze where Xiao Rui will go."
"Xiao Bin, you said that." Er Qiao was very anxious, thinking that Xiao Bin was deliberately delaying his brother's time, and he was already annoyed by the people of the Xiao family.
Ruan Hui was confused. According to his current mood, he couldn't calm down and analyzed it. He could only arrange all his hands to find it aimlessly.
"I don't know either, but I think he shouldn't go to Nanyue and Yunchu." Qiao Wu basically agreed with Xiao Bin's words. Going to Nanyue and Yunchu would die.
Ruan Hui restrained the anger in his eyes and thought about Xiao Bin's words.
Xiao Bin changed into a begging face, "Prince, Qiao'er's affairs are the biggest now. I think a lot of manpower should be placed on pursuing the whereabouts of my brothers Xiao Rui and Qiao'er. Now the big dealer is the one who is in charge of me and my father. The big dealer has offended many people before. When Qiao'er finds it, it is not too late to sit down and discuss it slowly. It should be the big dealer's fault, and the big dealer recognizes it.
If the prince feels that he has to clean up the big dealer before he can relieve his anger, my big dealer will wait here, and then Nanyue and Yunchu will just attack the soldiers and generals.
Your people, without affecting the people, will try their best to find people as you wish, and I will try my best to find places where my brother may appear. So, can the soldiers and generals who are besieging the city besieged first?"
Ruan Hui glanced at Xiao Bin. This was still human words, and nothing mattered now. "Okay, goodbye!"
Qiao Wu, no change or borrow, Xiao Su and a small number of guards followed Ruan Hui back to the outside of the city.
"What... what does this mean? When you go back to the city, you can't be together? I can't walk back from the secret passage..."
Xiao Bin looked at Ruan Hui and others who were leaving behind, thinking that the prince was like an iceberg, and he didn't know how Qiaoer could bear it.
The soldiers who besieged the city retreated, and the guards of the prince Ruan Hui and some elite soldiers were led by Hu Daoba and Tian Ping to join the search queue. Nanyue and Yun Chuan were all spies in the big dealer. With the manpower of the big dealer Xiao Bin, they didn't know how many people were scattered from all sides, and it was not an exaggeration to say that they set up a net of heaven and earth.
When talking about methods and playing tricks against detectives, young people like Ruan Hui, Xiao Bin and Qiao Wu are still too young to Xiao Rui.
Sometimes things are not always done according to common sense. Xiao Rui did the opposite. He took Qiao Qiao with Lao Gou and Tong Meng, and a team of secret guards with only his own roster from him to escort them. He walked and stopped and walked from city to town like a stop and played. Except for Qiao Qiao's coldness towards him, Xiao Rui was so happy.
Ten days after leaving the capital of Dafan from the secret passage, Xiao Rui took Qiao Qiao into a small manor. Outside the wall were many Qili incense planted along the wall, and there were many fruits and fruits that Qiao Qiao could not name. Qiao Qiao liked such a yard at first glance.
The door of the garden opened from the inside, and the ones who came out were Aunt Mu and Chunhe!
"Master, little princess, you are really here! I thought it was just something they said casually."
"Little Princess..."
Aunt Mu led Xiao Rui into the house, Chunhe rushed forward and hugged Qiao Qiao. Both mother and daughter cried with joy.
"Chunhe!" Qiao Qiao, who had been silent for several days, screamed and hugged Chunhe in a panic.
Is Xiao Rui sad or sad to see him? He is not qualified to obtain all the intimate actions related to Qiao Qiao.
"Little Princess, you must be exhausted along the way. I have prepared some things to wash, so you can wash it first." Chunhe knew Qiao Qiao's habits well.
Indeed, I couldn't wash it well every day. Qiao Qiao soaked herself in water under Chunhe's service, while washing and listening to Chunhe's words about how she came here.
Back then, Chunhe and Yongding left the Yunchu Palace, returned to Xilin City to pick up Aunt Mu and then returned to the big vendor, and then arrived at this manor, which was the residence of Xiao Rui to Aunt Mu and his family. Chunhe and Yongding had married, and their lives were so harmonious and beautiful.
This time I passed by Nanyue, Xiao Rui thought that Qiao Qiao was depressed and said nothing and smiled all the way, so he came here to let Qiao Qiao meet an acquaintance. Maybe she was in a good mood. Unexpectedly, she was in a much better mood.
Qiao Qiao packed herself up in the hall, and Yongding had already set up a table of food.
"Come on, sit down and eat together. I'm not the emperor anymore, don't be restrained." Since leaving the palace, Xiao Rui has become more talkative and has become much cheerful.
These people all tacitly cleared the seat next to Xiao Rui. There was no way, so Qiao Qiao could only sit there.
"Ah, Aunt Mu, I just realized how Chunhe has become round." Qiao Qiao was too excited and didn't pay much attention when she saw Chunhe. Now she saw clearly that Chunhe is much fatter than before.
"Little Princess, can't you tell me? This girl has been pregnant for several months." Aunt Mu smiled and she was happy that she would be able to hold her grandson in no time.
"Yongding, not bad." Xiao Rui said to Yongding, but he kept picking food for Qiao Qiao in the bowl.
"Yongding is so handsome, Chunhe, you have to come out with a son who is more handsome than Yongding."
"Little Princess, don't make fun of me."
Chunhe lowered her head and felt embarrassed.
"Yongding, you are strong." Tong Meng also praised Yongding with his thumb.
The haze that shrouded the heads of a group of people because of Qiao Qiao's silent words in recent days completely dissipated with the jokes of Chunhe and his wife.
As long as Qiao Qiao is in a good mood, Xiao Rui can be in a good mood. Only when Xiao Rui is in a good mood can everyone live a good life. Otherwise, everyone will be like a pair of feet stepping in the clouds and fog. It is impossible to say that they will fall to death at any step.
After dinner, Qiao Qiao was wandering around the village, and Xiao Rui kept following.
"Xiao Rui, what do you want? Where are you going to take me?" Qiao Qiao didn't know where the road was going, and there were no road signs in ancient times.
"Go to where you want to go." Looking at Qiao Qiao, Xiao Rui's eyebrows and eyes were curved and his smile was particularly beautiful.
No longer dressed in a golden dress, Xiao Rui was dressed in light blue brocade. The uncle in his thirties made people unable to see his actual age, just like a handsome guy in his twenties or less than thirty years old. Qiao Qiao, who was wearing a couple outfit with a light blue dress, saw that the father-in-law and guards not far away felt that the two men were handsome and unparalleled women were pretty. How could they match him? Why didn’t they go in the same way?
Xiao Rui took Qiao Qiao all the way to Nanyue. He looked at the map drawn by Xiao Bin's grandmother, and he wanted to see the mysterious lake. In addition, when the two had not had a fight before, Xiao Rui asked Qiao Qiao if there was any place she really wanted to go to. Qiao Qiao answered this lake.
At this moment, Qiao Qiao blinked her eyes and thought, where did she want to go, he knew? "Is that lake?"
"Um."
Qiao Qiao finally smiled, but Xiao Rui was so happy. She stood there like a silly boy, looking at others and laughing together.
Even the big gray is confused by laughter.
In the capital of Dafan, the people sent by Ruan Hui did not find any clues. He was already confused. Before, although his wife was in someone else's palace, at least she knew that she was in a fixed place. Now, even if she suddenly disappeared, there was nowhere to be found.
"I went to search for his Xiao family's ancestral grave!" Tian Ping could no longer control his emotions and could burst into thunder at any time.
"Okay, okay, you can get you, the second brother, but fortunately, I know that Xiao Rui is with so many people, Qiao Qiao is at least safe." Hu Daoba was a little calmer than Tian Ping, but calm has also smashed a lot of things in recent days.
"Safety, that's my daughter, such a beautiful daughter, who has been with her for so long by someone who has long been ill-treated with her, I..."
Tian Ping was held down by Hu Daoba and Qiao Wu forever. Can you say this nonsense?
Ruan Hui sat there without saying a word, his fists clenched, so tight that his fingernails slashed through the palms and blood leaked out. His eyes were not relieved even if they tore Xiao Rui.
"Crown Prince, Xiao Bin is here." As soon as the guards reported, Xiao Bin rushed in quickly.
Xiao Bin was holding a piece of folded rice paper in his hand. He didn't care about etiquette when he came in. He spread it on the table and it was a map.
"Crown Prince, look, this is what I discovered. Today I accidentally went to search the small study room leading from the secret passage where Qiaoer lived. There was originally a small study room for my grandfather and grandmother, and then..."
"Tell me the point!" Ruan Hui was impatient when he heard it, Xiao Bin talked a lot of nonsense.
"Yes, this map was flipped by my emperor brother and made notes on this drawing. Look, "Xiao Bin pointed out one by one, "This map was painted by my grandmother back then. The lake here is very strange. Anything thrown into the lake immediately sinks. The light leaves are no exception. Grandma once said that passing through the bottom of the lake can lead to another world..."
After Xiao Bin finished speaking, except for Ruan Hui, Hu Dao Scar Tian Ping Qiao Wu and others looked at him with the look of looking at the monster.
"No, I've told you all that I know. If you don't believe it, I can't do it. I want to say that the emperor has seen this picture, and more than once, will he take Qiaoer there?"
Xiao Bin also gave all the pictures to Ruan Hui. Ruan Huixin, he knew about that lake.
"Get ready now and go back to South Vietnam."
Others don’t know, but Ruan Hui knows that the lake is the one that passes through the hole behind the Xiangshui Riverside Waterfall. Although it is not detailed, it is probably the same direction.
Ruan Hui grabbed the drawings with one hand and went out. Qiao Wu and others were very fast, so they turned around and took the horse and left.
"No, you wait for me, I'll go together." Xiao Bin asked Xiao Luozi to prepare the horses. He came out and took a carriage. The carriage was slow and he rode fast.
Xiao Rui and Qiao Qiao lived in Aunt Mu's manor for a few days, then slowly got on the carriage and went all the way to the Shitan Forest Farm.
"Qiao'er, is the world you are talking about really that beautiful?"
Xiao Rui always tried every means to talk to Qiao Qiao, and what Qiao Qiao was most interested in talking about was a modern city.
"Well, at least you don't have to travel like you do now. You can walk dozens of miles a day, and you can fly there for hours and thousands of kilometers away."
"Your purse also came with you?"
Xiao Rui knew that Qiao Qiao was carrying a cell phone in her purse, but she was not hanging it anymore and she would not be found in her hiding herself.
Qiao Qiao nodded.
"Can I see?"
Qiao Qiao nodded and didn't say anything, but she didn't want to take a look. She didn't expect Xiao Rui to ask shamelessly, but she still wanted to take a look.
After hesitating for a moment, she had no need to turn against Xiao Rui now. She quietly waited to the Shitan Forest Farm, just to reach the Xiangshui River, and waited for an opportunity to get out. In order to reach the Xiangshui River safely, Qiao Qiao took out her cell phone and handed it to him.
Xiao Rui looked at the front and the back very seriously, "I thought this thing also had your name on it."
I thought it was a custom machine, and the customized one would not be named. Qiao Qiao didn't want to explain too much, mainly because she was tired, so she silently took back her phone and was chatted to death again that day.
"Qiao'er, there are a few days left to the seventh day of the seventh month. We happened to arrive at the place we were going to. We can only celebrate your birthday in the wilderness. Forgive me."
After Xiao Rui said that, it was true that it had been more than half a year before he was taken to the big vendor by Tong Meng at Lantern Festival, and it was July again in a blink of an eye. Most of the time in the past six months, Xiao Rui was present.
Qiao Qiao's hatred for Xiao Rui at the beginning to calm later also had many conflicts, but Xiao Rui was indeed good to Qiao Qiao. He knew that he had such a thought, but he could still take care of her everywhere. Except for a few times when he was so angry that he wanted to treat her in time, he also stopped it in time. Most of them treated him with courtesy. Qiao Qiao really thought he was a man, a good person.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look up at him. Xiao Rui also happened to stare at Qiao Qiao, his eyes facing each other, which was a mixture of flavors.
"What are you going to do?" The first time, Qiao Qiao took the initiative to ask Xiao Rui these questions.
"Which side are you referring to?"
"You don't want your future path, you will have a place to go."
"I don't know, I think it's good to be like this. Just have you there."
"I always have to go back to Nanyue and Yunchu. My home is there, and it is impossible for us."
Qiao Qiao reminded Xiao Rui at all times, hoping that he could see clearly and stop in time, and perhaps he could still live a safe second half of his life.
"I said, never let go, you will fall in love with me."
"Arrogant maniac!"
Qiao Qiao lowered her head after scolding her and no longer dared to look at Xiao Rui's eyes. He had anger in his eyes, and he could burn himself to death by accident. She always remembered that she had a husband and children, and no longer single people would do whatever they wanted.
Qiao Qiao's expression always fell into Xiao Rui's eyes. She no longer hated him, and even felt a little moved. He could understand such a look. He was willing to wait, and he would soon capture her heart.
Xiao Rui smiled, smiling so hard that the peach blossoms had tears in his eyes.
Speaking of the Shitan Forest Farm, Xiao Rui and Qiao Qiao did not travel from this direction on the Xiangshui River, but approached the mysterious lake from the opposite direction on the Xiangshui River.
