After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

After this incident, Zhou didn't dare to make any mistakes again.

In this way, Tan Zhixu had a lot of leisure time. Every day he either went to the shop in the Hou Mansion or to the places he bought privately, especially Zhuangzi in the western suburbs, which happened to be not far from Gu Huaijing's shop, so it was also a convenient way to go.

Just as the time passed by, Tan Zhixu felt a little anxious, just worried.

Seeing that his girl had been restless these past two days, Gu Yu also became worried, "Girl, don't think too much about it. Mr. Gu has to go out on patrol every month. This delay of two days does not necessarily mean that something has happened, right?"

Teacher Tan Zhixu agreed with what she said, but that kind of uneasiness started to arise last night, and she just didn't know why she was like this.

When she saw something wrong with Gu Yu's face, she quickly smiled and said, "I'm fine, go and do your work."

"Girl, we are very busy. Mr. Gu's shop is doing very well."

Yes, it's just because business is so good that Guyu has been very busy these days.

Tan Zhixu pulled Guyu in distress. .

Facing his master's shy face, Gu Yu couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, miss, I know I will take good care of the shop."

"it is good."

After appeasing Guyu, Tan Zhixu went to the novelty shop next door. The business here was still very good. Although there were only a few items, many people had already started to make reservations.

Busy days always passed quickly, but the faster they went by, the more worried Tan Zhixu became. Finally, she couldn't help it anymore, and she sent someone to investigate.

Two days later, the people he sent out came back to report.

During this period, only Tan Zhixu was present, so she was the only one who knew the reports of her subordinates.

After his subordinates left, Tan Zhixu stayed in the bedroom.

After Guyu finished everything, she realized that she hadn't seen her master for several hours. She was a little worried, so she searched several places and finally found Tan Zhixu in the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

"Girl, why are you back? I didn't say anything. It took me a long time to find you. What's wrong with you?"

Gu Yu noticed something was wrong with Tan Zhixu's expression, and his heart sank into a trough.

Because of Gu Yu's words, Tan Zhixu slowly raised her eyes. Those clear eyes were a little unfocused, something she had never seen before.

"Girl, please don't be like this. If you tell me what happened, maybe I can help you solve it." Gu Yu was about to cry because of Tan Zhixu's expression.

The moment Gu Yu squatted down, Tan Zhixu came back to his senses, and his dull eyes suddenly became brighter, "Gu Yu, I scared you, didn't I?"

As soon as Tan Zhixu's voice returned to its original state, Gu Yu cried out, "Girl, you scared me to death. I thought something had happened. What happened to you just now?"

Faced with Guyu's questioning, Tan Zhixu did not hide anything and directly told his subordinates' report.

"what?"

Guyu stood up suddenly and looked at Tan Zhixu in disbelief.

It wasn't until she nodded that Gu Yu fell to the ground, "Then, what should we do? Both Mr. Gu and Teng Xi are missing?"

Tan Zhixu took a deep breath and forced himself to nod, "Yes, from the day I felt something was wrong, Gu Huaijing and Teng Xi disappeared. The court was worried that it would cause unrest, so they did not release the news."

"What should I do?"

Guyu, who had just stopped crying, started crying again.

Tan Zhixu stroked her back and comforted her for a while before firmly saying: "It's okay. She's just missing. It doesn't necessarily mean something happened."

"Yes, yes, the girl is right. Mr. Gu is so powerful, how could he let something happen to him, right?"

Gu Yu knew, she knew better than anyone else, that if something happened to Gu Huaijing, her girl would definitely not be able to bear it, otherwise she would not be able to sit here alone for such a long time. "Yes, so don't cry now and keep an eye on Gu Huaijing's shop. I'll go check on this matter."

"it is good."

Because of worry, Tan Zhixu couldn't wait in the capital at all. After explaining everything, she went directly to the point of the incident.

After all, the incident happened very close to the capital. It didn't take much time for her to reach the small town not far from the capital in only half a day.

This place is a place full of outstanding people. Of course, all the convenient conditions are because it is close to the capital and is the only place where freight from the capital must pass. Of course, bandits here are also very rampant.

In his previous life, Tan Zhixu heard Gu Huaijing say that he needed to come to this small town several times a year to suppress bandits. Now, most of the disappearances here are related to the suppression of bandits.

Although she believed that Gu Huaijing could handle these things well, she still couldn't feel at ease without seeing others.

Thinking of the miss in her previous life, even if she was not with this man in this life, she would not watch anything happen to him.

After half a day's journey, Tan Zhixu checked into the best inn in the city.

After giving the young man a lot of money, Tan Zhixu pretended to be curious and inquired about the news from the young man.

"Seller, I just arrived here. I wonder if there are any fun places here, or is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

Tan Zhixu gave a lot of money, and the servant could tell at a glance that she was a girl from a wealthy family, so she didn't shy away from it at all. She smiled and bowed, "Girl, you have asked the right person. In our place, I But a jack of all trades.”

"Oh, then you should tell me."

Tan Zhixu chuckled at the boy, and the boy started talking non-stop.

For a full quarter of an hour, the boy didn't shut up. Tan Zhixu also knew the general situation of the town. Generally speaking, it was relatively prosperous, but bandits were rampant in the surrounding area. This was something that rich people like them were worried about.

The government sends many people to suppress bandits every year, but one wave after another, and it is impossible to suppress them clearly.

Of course, what people here look forward to most every year is Gu Huaijing's arrival.

Every time he comes, he will suppress bandits on a large scale, and then there will be a period of peace.

"Where is the bandit's den?"

"Girl, don't you want to go there?"

The boy looked at Tan Zhixu in disbelief.

Tan Zhixu saw the servant's panic, and she shook her head repeatedly, "How can I be so brave? I'm just curious."

"That's okay, it scared me to death."

The boy let out a long sigh of relief, then looked at Tan Zhixu, and then looked around. Seeing that no one was looking at him, he said softly: "Girl, that bandit's den is not far from us. , but I advise you not to go there."

"Well, I see, thank you."

Tan Zhixu thanked the boy and pretended to be hungry and ate something.

It was already getting late after dinner, so Tan Zhixu pretended to go out for a walk, then wandered around to the bandit's den.

Far away, Tan Zhixu saw that this place was heavily guarded. It seemed that these bandits were very experienced and knew how to place their own people in various places.

Will it be difficult for Tan Zhi to successfully suppress the bandits?

Thinking of this, Tan Zhixu came to his senses. If it wasn't difficult, he wouldn't have been missing for so long.
