Chapter 142
"My lord, this man can't be found."

"How dare you refuse! Then you don't have to appear in front of me from now on!"

"My lord, please calm down. It's not that the subordinates don't want to look for it. It's really helpless. Two days ago, someone went to the government to quietly set up a public case, and there is already a missing person list at the city gate!"

Si Ruiyan's eyes tightened as he listened to the conversation between the two.

Not everyone is qualified to post the city gate missing person list, only the relatives and family members of fifth-rank officials, or officials who have written a clear note.

If the government directly lowered the list, it must be an order from above.

"Who reported the official!" Xiao Guang's doubts have turned into anger.

"The eldest son of the Qin family." The subordinate replied Wei Nuo.

Si Ruiyan's eyes were fixed, and his heart was suddenly stabbed by something.

He also went to the government two days ago.

When the master of the government office saw him, he taunted him, and then issued an order to expel the guest.

Although the son's status is noble, he doesn't have much real power in his hands. If the emperor hadn't entrusted him with monitoring the Jingdu restaurant, he would be just a noble son, and the court officials don't need to look at him.

If he really reported to the government, then the lord of the government office would file a case and post a missing person list.It seems that Qin Fufeng's status as the eldest son is higher than he imagined.

"Qin Fufeng, as expected, he has no more affection for Xiao Ning." Xiao Guang snorted coldly, "That's all for now. If someone is rescued by him, there is absolutely no reason for him to be taken away by us."

The subordinate responded with a low voice, like a child who made a mistake and was waiting to be punished.

The footsteps sounded again, and Si Ruiyan turned sideways to hide, watching the two hurriedly walk past him.

Not long after, a message spread vaguely in Beijing.

Xiao Ning, the eldest daughter of Xiao Shangshu's family, encountered an accident while going up the mountain to pray for blessings. She disappeared for many days and was rescued by the eldest son of the Qin family.

Now it is placed in Huichun hall.

As soon as the news came out, Si Ruiyan hurried to Huichun Hall.

In front of the medical hall, a luxurious carriage stopped at the door.More than a dozen guards with long knives on their waists stood upright outside the door with piercing eyes.

They didn't stop any of the patients in the past, but their scrutiny didn't retreat in the slightest.

Si Ruiyan didn't want to conflict with these people, so he went to the back door instead, who knew that the back door was even more heavily guarded.

"The eldest son of the world is really kind to this young lady of the Xiao family. I have lived for more than 30 years, and this is the first time I have seen such a large group of protection."

"A while ago, the princess' trips were probably nothing more than that. Could it be that the son of the world still has something in mind for the young lady of the Xiao family? I heard that they used to be a couple."

"Shut your beak! The son of the world will not pick up worn-out shoes!"

Two beggars walked by the back door with smirks on their dirty faces.

When they passed Si Ruiyan's side, they suddenly shivered.For some reason, he was shocked by the coldness on this person.

When Si Ruiyan raised his eyes, the frost was like a cold knife.

The two beggars shivered, and hurriedly retreated and ran away.They didn't know why they ran, they just instinctively wanted to save their lives.

Qin Fufeng and Xiao Ning were childhood sweethearts, as long as they walked the streets of the capital, no one knew about it, no one knew about it.

When they were in Prince Yin's mansion, Si Ruiyan saw the warmth in Qin Fufeng's eyes when they met.Thinking about it now, it seems that there are other meanings.

The silver signboard of Huichun Hall flickered, shining in Si Ruiyan's eagle eyes.

He came to the main entrance, swaggered towards the guards.

"Stop!" The guard saw a man with sword-like brows and stern eyes approaching him, and subconsciously tried to stop him.

When Si Ruiyan was stopped like this, the anger in his heart was suddenly ignited for some reason.

He didn't know why he was hiding his anger, but seeing those guards, they all looked hideous.

The fists were clenched tightly in the sleeves, and the knuckles were secretly crisp.

"Stop! A bunch of blind things!"

A deep and clear cold drink, not angry but with a touch of warmth.

"Master." The guards clasped their fists and nodded.

Qin Fufeng had handsome eyebrows and a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

"That's why people let the news out. I didn't expect His Highness to come here so soon after hearing the news."

He frowned slightly, and there was some teasing in his smile.

"This man is Mrs. Xiao's husband, but you all regard him as a suspicious person. By acting like this, I don't know how many people have been wronged in the future. Go and receive the punishment yourself." Qin Fufeng glanced to the left and right.

The guards responded in unison, without any emotion on their faces.Facing the inexplicable punishment, they seemed to be convinced.

"She's inside, let's go in and have a look." Qin Fufeng waved his folding fan lightly, raised his eyes to glance at the clouds in the sky, "I'll be able to rest now that you're here."

Si Ruiyan's tightly clenched fists gradually loosened, and he nodded and clasped his fists together: "Thank you, my lord."

Besides, he didn't know what to say, he couldn't ask him face to face if he saved someone from Xiao Guang.

But that's no need to ask.

Qin Fufeng chuckled, raised his eyebrows, and led a large group of guards away.

Now all the people in the capital know that Xiao Ning has been rescued, no one would dare to openly rob people at the feet of the emperor.

Si Ruiyan looked at the back of the dude riding away on horseback, his stern face gradually softened.

In the hospital hut in the backyard, Xiao Ning's head was tied with thick gauze.But not to stop bleeding, but to ice.

In order to make her look good, Xiao Guang ordered his subordinates to use Mixiang on her for several days.Her body was weak and could not resist the properties of the medicine, so that her qi and blood were retrograde, and her yang was floating outside, rushing straight to the key points, making her extremely hot.

Standing at the door, Si Ruiyan suddenly felt that his legs weighed a thousand catties, and he couldn't step through the low threshold no matter what.

"It's all here, what are you doing standing at the door in a daze?"

Light with a touch of playful voice.

Si Ruiyan frowned slightly, and suddenly felt something completely let go in his heart.

He raised his eyes slightly, but saw a pale face, with a smile that made people feel like a spring breeze, with lively eyebrows, and the tips of the eyebrows were as light as thin willows.

With a flowery smile and a hibiscus appearance, Si Ruiyan was a little dazed for some reason.

He has seen this face countless times and hated it many times, but at this moment he actually hopes that this moment will never fade away.

"I didn't expect you to come to visit me. Originally, Qin Fufeng wanted to make a bet with me. Fortunately, I didn't agree, otherwise I would lose him a big meal." Xiao Ning's voice was clear, and the expression in his eyes had already recovered. become.

Hearing Qin Fufeng's name, Si Ruiyan paused when he was about to enter the door, and his face sank slightly.

"Long time no see, it's still this ice cube face." Xiao Ning shook her head helplessly, but she was already used to seeing this face.

If Si Ruiyan smiled at her, maybe she still thought it was strange.

"Why did you come to bet on me with him?" Si Ruiyan whispered coldly, standing outside the door without moving a step, his eyes slightly cold.

Countless children in Beijing have bet against him, but he doesn't care about those people, but Qin Fufeng made him feel like a stick in his throat.

"But I just said something casually, and the bet has not been made." Seeing his low tone, Si Ruiyan knew that he was a little unhappy.

"I know you don't like being played with, so how could I do something that disgusts you."

These words blew away the fire in Si Ruiyan's heart like a spring breeze.

Suddenly, he frowned slightly and his eyes moved slightly.

Xiao Ning used to do many things that disgusted him.

I don't know when Xiao Ning gradually became less like Xiao Ning.In the past, she was arrogant and domineering, unruly and willful, even though she was a concubine, she was taller than the sky.But now, she is quick-witted, has a clear love and hate, is not afraid of the rich and powerful, and does business for the sake of the people.
