Master Emperor, your wife is too poisonous

Chapter 628 Did You Hear It?

"Yes." Gu Xi responded with a nod of his head, "Of course such a thing as a princess running away from marriage should not be made public. Tianqiong is in a mess now, and if this matter spreads out and becomes a big problem, it will be difficult to deal with it."

"The fourth prince is sending people to search secretly, and our people are also looking for the whereabouts of the princess, but the people we arranged in Beiming Kingdom are not familiar with the princess after all, so the master specially sent a letter saying that I should come Afterwards, assist our people to find the princess as soon as possible."

"I went there tonight to ask about the current situation, and then work with them to make a search plan and determine the direction to look for."

Gu Xidao: "In the final analysis, I am not responsible for this matter. I just helped in the past. After all, my priority this time is to protect your safety, and I cannot put the cart before the horse."

"I know." Ye Lingxi said, "I can still tell the priority of the matter. Since Helian Mingye sent a letter to explain it, it seems that the search has reached a deadlock and we need your help."

"Go quickly." She urged, "Solve the matter as soon as possible, and go back early."

"You don't have to worry about me, I have the ability to protect myself, and Jia Fan and the others are guarding, we don't have any enemies in Beiming Kingdom, nothing will happen."

Ye Lingxi reassured Gu Xi that he didn't waste any more time, and urged him to get down to business.

After Gu Xi left, she returned to her room.

As soon as she entered, the three people in the room all turned to look at her.

Ye Lingxi knew that they were also curious, so she made up an excuse and said, "Gu Xi found news that this small town is not peaceful recently, and there have been incidents of missing women and children. He is going to investigate, so he came here to talk to I say hello."

Ye Lingxi sat down at the table, picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea, her eyes swept over the three of Xiaobao and said, "He didn't mean to scare you by telling you to be safe, just be obedient, just be good at night In the house, you are not allowed to go out and run around at will."

The tone of the child's training was obviously for Xiaobao and Changsheng, so Xu Fengshan put on a look of staying out of the matter, but Ye Lingxi followed him and gave him a sideways look, "It's the same with you, don't run around in the house at night .”

Xu Fengshan was taken aback by the training, and subconsciously nodded in response, but soon realized something was wrong, looked at Ye Lingxi helplessly and said: "Doctor Ye, I am already this old, you don't need to do this kind of thing." Tell me specifically."

"Just in case."

Ye Lingxi said with a smile: "Anyway, stay safe tonight, just don't make any trouble."

After she finished speaking, she drank two sips of tea to moisten her throat, and then brought the topic back to the main topic, "Come on, let's continue talking about the medical case just now."

It took Ye Lingxi about half an hour to finish the medical case, and seeing that it was getting late, she asked the three of them to go back to rest.

Xiaobao and Changsheng still live in the same room, and they can take care of each other a bit. Xu Fengshan lives in a room alone, which is next door to Xiaobao and Changsheng's room.

The rooms Ye Lingxi and Xiaobao lived in were also next to each other, because she was afraid that if something happened in Xiaobao's room at night, she would not be able to notice if she was too far away.

In the past, Gu Xi and Jia Fan took turns to watch the night. Gu Xi was not here tonight. Although he also found someone to replace him, Jia Fan was still a little worried and insisted on keeping watch outside.

Ye Lingxi couldn't resist him either, so she could only follow his wishes.

The carriage that Helian Mingye had prepared for them was very spacious, but it was inevitable that they would be tired after bumping around in the carriage for a day. Ye Lingxi couldn't bear it a little bit, and she fell asleep not long after Xiaobao and the others left.

When she slept until midnight, she vaguely heard some noise outside, a muffled "dong dong dong", as if someone was bumping into something.

Hearing that the voice seemed to be coming from the backyard of the inn, Ye Lingxi's heart trembled, she woke up immediately, sat up neatly, put on her coat, walked quickly to the window, carefully Opened the window a crack and looked towards the backyard of the inn.

In the backyard of the inn, there were all kinds of goods brought by the guests staying in the inn, which were piled up in a mess.

Next to her house, there are several big boxes on the wall of the first floor, and I don't know what is in them. Not to mention the locks on the boxes, several big boxes are still firmly tied with hemp rope. bundled together.

She squinted her eyes and pricked up her ears to carefully identify the sound, confirming that the sound came from those boxes, she couldn't help but frowned slightly, thinking to herself that there might not be any living things in those boxes. ?

Just as this thought flashed through her mind, there was a sudden knock on the door.

In the dead of night, she was still thinking about something, and the sudden knock on the door really scared her.

She immediately turned her head and looked towards the door, only to hear Xiao Bao's voice coming from the door, "Mother, wake up, I need to find you."

Even though he knocked on the door to call for someone, the little guy lowered his voice when he spoke, in a mysterious way.

Ye Lingxi clutched her heart, she couldn't laugh or cry, she walked to the table and lit the oil lamp in the room, then she held the oil lamp and walked to the door to open the door.

I thought Xiaobao was the only one coming, but when he opened the door, Changsheng and Xu Fengshan were there, and even Jia Fan stood behind the three of them with a serious face.

This battle made Ye Lingxi raise her eyebrows involuntarily. Just as she was about to ask something, Xiaobao took her hand and pulled her into the room without waiting for her to speak. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Mother, this inn is haunted!"

This kind of topic was suddenly brought up in the middle of the night, even though Ye Lingxi had never believed in ghosts and gods, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Seeing Ye Lingxi's serious expression, Xiao Bao thought she had listened to his words, and said, "Senior Brother and I both heard it. There are strange noises in the backyard of this inn."

"I, I heard it too." Xu Fengshan tugged on his robe tightly, his face was pale and ugly, and his voice trembled when he spoke, "There was the sound of knocking on wood, and the sound of a woman crying."

When he finished his last words, Ye Lingxi was shocked, and felt the hairs on her back stand on end in an instant, and immediately denied it without thinking, "Don't talk nonsense, there is indeed a strange movement in the backyard It's true, I heard it too, but I didn't hear any woman's cry at all, okay! You couldn't imagine scaring yourself, right? "

"No!" Xu Fengshan shook his head vigorously, "My hearing has been sharper than others since I was a child, especially at night when the surroundings are quiet, I can hear some subtle sounds very clearly, I'm sure I heard it right, really There was a woman crying."

Xiaobao was terribly frightened, and held onto Ye Lingxi's arm tightly, not daring to let go. Although Changsheng kept his composure on the surface, he still couldn't help but move closer to Ye Lingxi's side.

Ye Lingxi took a light breath, rubbed her arms to suppress the goosebumps that had been aroused, looked up at Jia Fan and asked, "Did you hear that?"

Jia Fan shook his head, "I've been guarding the corridor, but I couldn't hear you clearly in the room."

"Since everyone is curious, should I ask someone to take a look?"
