When everyone hurried upstairs, except for a few maids, the lady behind the veil disappeared.

Li Jiancheng glanced at Mrs. Xu with a strange expression on his face. Mrs. Xu lowered his head, unable to see the change in his face.

"Where's the person? Where's the elder sister?" Li Jiancheng asked, "Such a big living person disappeared from under your noses? What do you eat?"

Mrs. Xu said hastily, "I just said that someone was watching. The old slave and the people in the room were also curious, so they chased after her. When I got back upstairs, Miss was nowhere to be seen."

Li Jiancheng was furious, "Just you three-legged cat maids, you still want to catch up with the thieves? Sister, there is something good or bad, this son has skinned you."

Li Shentong frowned, Li Xiuning wasn't here in the first place, so what's the point of acting in such a play at this time?
Was it Bishamon and the nanny who made it up on their own, or was it arranged by clan brother Li Yuan and sister-in-law Dou Shi, I just arrived and I don't know the situation yet, so it's better not to talk too much.

Li Jiancheng looked at Chai Bao and Ma Sanbao and said, "Hedong is the territory of your Chai family. If you dig three feet into the ground, you must find my sister back."

Chai Leopard and Ma Sanbao looked at each other. The current situation was beyond anyone's control. No one thought that Miss Li Xiuning would just disappear. Whether she was kidnapped or ran away, no one could say for sure.

Chai Leopard and Ma Sanbao could only bow down and say, "I'll make arrangements later. Don't worry, His Royal Highness, as long as we are in the border of Hedong, nothing will happen to my mistress."

Li Jiancheng nodded with a gloomy face, and then said to Mrs. Xu, "Quickly report to the Duke and Madam for a decision."

"Uncle, come with me to see father and mother." Li Jiancheng said to Li Shentong, and then yelled at Chai Bao and Ma Sanbao, "What are you still standing here for? Why don't you go find them?"

Chai Bao and Ma Sanbao could only retreat out of the attic resentfully, although there was discontent in their eyes, they also knew that the most important thing now was to find Li Xiuning.

When the two of them went downstairs, Li Jiancheng said to Mrs. Xu, "Why did you make such an arrangement? There was nothing to do today, isn't this a side issue?"

Xu raised her head and said to Li Jiancheng, "It's all Madam's arrangement, and this old slave doesn't know the reason."

Li Jiancheng sighed and said, "Let's go, go see Aye and Aniang."

Ma Sanbao, who was walking on the road, said to Chai Leopard, "This is strange, Leopard, do you see anything?"

Chai Bao shook his head and said, "The person you can't even catch up to must have not been arranged by Tang Guogong's mansion. Have you seen clearly that this person is not abducted?"

Ma Sanbao said, "The speed is too fast, like a martial artist who specializes in speed, I didn't catch up, and I didn't see clearly."

Chai Bao sighed, "This is troublesome, that's all, mobilize all the people in my Chai family, spies, and go all out to find out Li Xiuning's whereabouts."

After taking two steps, he said again, "If you meet someone named Li Zhao and Li Pingyang, keep an eye on him."

Ma Sanbao nodded, "I'll make arrangements now."

Here Li Jiancheng brought Li Shentong and Xu Shi to the residence of Li Yuan and Dou Shi, and saw Li Yuan holding Li Shimin in his arms, and Dou Shi holding Li Yuanba talking in the room.

Seeing Li Shentong, Li Yuan stepped forward and asked, "Have you ever recovered from your injury?"

Li Shentong bowed to Li Yuan, and said, "Basically, it's all right, clan brother, what's going on today?"

Li Yuan glanced at Mrs. Dou, then asked the other irrelevant people in the room to retreat first, then put Li Shimin down, and said to Li Shentong, "It's all your sister-in-law's idea. The details are up to her." Let me explain to you."

Mama Dou rolled her eyes at Li Yuan and said, "Actually, if anyone is peeping today, I'm going to make Xiuning disappear."

"Why is this, A Niang, I have basically fooled the past today, so why do I have to act in such a play?" Li Jiancheng asked puzzled.

Dou carried Li Yuanba to the door and said, "You said that Xiuning was kidnapped or escaped marriage, which one will have a greater impact on the reputation of Tang Guogong's mansion?"

"It must have escaped marriage." Before Li Jiancheng and others could answer, Dou's mother said leisurely, "Some things can be hidden for a while, but can't be hidden forever. Why don't you let Xiu Ning disappear in this Puzhou City? You can also use the power of the Chai family to hide it." Find out about Xiuning's whereabouts."

"Besides, my Tang Guogong's mansion seems to be full of flowers, but it is in a state of panic. Just say that a small hussar's mansion dared to show face to your father yesterday, and you know that my Tang Guogong's mansion is already in turmoil."

"What does this have to do with what happened today?" Li Jiancheng asked still puzzled.

Mother Dou smiled and said, "What happened today is actually for people to see. The prince is afraid of your father. Without the support of the prince, that general An would have dared to act like this yesterday? Doesn't it mean that your father's daughter is kidnapped?" If you can't even protect your family members, how can you become a thorn in the prince's side?"

"That's why I said that your elder sister was taken away by a strongman. Coincidentally, there are school-age girls missing in Puzhou City these days. What's more, there are experts spying on you today."

"In this world, there is no coincidence without a book."

Li Jiancheng suddenly stiffened his neck and said, "Aniang, it's not my son from the Li family who blindly showed weakness."

Li Yuan suddenly slapped Li Jiancheng on the back of the head, and said cursingly, "Show weakness, can you do it without showing weakness? Gou Jian didn't show weakness, let Fu Chai cut off his head with a click, how could the next three thousand Yue Jia swallow Wu? Han Xin Don’t show weakness, don’t have the humiliation of the crotch, how can there be Han Xin’s allusions, the more the better? Don’t show weakness, at the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Yu took Liu Bang’s head long ago, where did the 300-year-old Guozuo of the Han Dynasty come from?”

"Showing weakness is nothing more than resting and recuperating, and trying your best."

Mama Dou glared at Li Yuan and said, "Bisamon is still a little younger, how can I understand the twists and turns in this place. I said that your sister was taken away, and there is another point, that is, let the local snake of the Chai family do his best to find him." It’s better if you can’t find them, it’s easier than explaining to them who escaped marriage.”

Li Shentong frowned, "Brother, Bishamon is right in saying one thing, blindly showing weakness, won't this prince take advantage of the fire?"

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "My cousin has an arrogant personality. As long as the opponent admits defeat, he will not pursue him anymore. He will only swing his sword at the stronger one. As long as the prince does not attack, other people under the prince will be inconvenient." Make a move, so as not to spoil the prince's face."

"I just don't know who is the master spy today?"

"It's nothing more than a strong man who kidnaps people, or a spy of the prince, who else can it be?" Mama Dou said, "By the way, Bishamon, where is the person you invited?"

Li Jiancheng suddenly said in embarrassment, "Aniang, I originally wanted to invite Mr. Li to come over to talk about it, but I ran into the Chai family slave's forced intrusion, so it was delayed."

Mother Dou raised her brows, "Your father still beat you lightly. He asked you to hire someone, not to take care of the affairs of the back house. How do you feel when you see this young man?"

"Kindly, but it's definitely not my sister. Her height, body, and voice don't match up." Li Jiancheng said, "Besides, this young man is very good at martial arts. You must know that my sister's cultivation is slow, so she is definitely not the same person."

"What son?" Li Shentong asked, "What kind of handsome did the clan brother find?"

"No, it was the nanny Xu who saw a son whose back looked like Xiuning in the lobby of the inn. I thought it was Xiuning in disguise, so I would like to invite you to take a look." Li Yuan laughed, "Bishamon, do you know the name and origin of this son?"

"Li Zhao, courtesy name Pingyang, is a side branch of the Li family in Longxi." Li Jiancheng said.

Li Shentong's eyes widened suddenly, "You mean Li Zhao? Brother Li Pingyang?"
