1621 Disappeared
Gu yingxue fainted from the heat. To be exact, she had a heat stroke.
The weather was already very hot, and her mouth was covered, her hands and feet were tied, and she was locked in the cabinet. The space was small, and she was a little scared, so she fainted.
Because of the spy, old general Peng went to Gu shouxin’s place after breakfast. After the two finished talking, he was stopped by Gu si.
A year had passed and Gu Si was already a 14-year-old girl. Ever since Gu Xin’s incident, she had accepted a lot of things on her own. She had grown taller and looked more mature.
After she bowed to old general Peng and Gu shouxin, she asked, ” “Grandpa Peng, is Xue ‘er not feeling well today? Why didn’t he come over?”
“He didn’t come?” old general Peng was taken aback. I didn’t see that girl at breakfast this morning, so I thought she came over! He was definitely sleeping in. Do you want to come with me to get her?”
Of course, Gu si had to go. Even Xie Zhiyi wasn’t there anymore. In the past, there was only Gu yingxue and her in the big group of girls. She still liked people to follow her.
When they arrived at the Peng mansion, Gu si didn’t need anyone to take her to Gu yingxue’s place.
In the end, he realized that she had already woken up and left the courtyard.
The servant girl said that Gu yingxue had gone to look for old general Peng, so Gu si asked the servant girl to call for her.
Not long after, the servant girl came back in a panic. “Fifth young lady Gu, did our young lady really not go to your house?”
Gu si frowned,’what’s wrong? Wasn’t Xue ‘er with Grandpa Peng? She really didn’t come to my house today.”
The maidservant was on the verge of tears,”he’s not with the old general.” However, when the young lady left the house, she told me not to follow her. She went to have breakfast with the old general, and after that, she went to look for Lord Gu with the old general. What to do? The young lady is gone.”
Gu si: ” don’t worry. Maybe Xue ‘er went somewhere else and sent someone to ask the female Battalion? ” And the food street?”
The maidservant nodded and said,”yes, I did.” When old general heard that young lady was not in the residence, he had already sent people to look for her. ”
Gu si raised his head to look at the sky. The sun was almost in the middle of the sky, and it was almost noon. Where had Xue ‘er gone?
……
It was only in the afternoon that everyone was sure that Gu yingxue had disappeared.
What he could be sure of was that she had not left the Peng mansion today. The doorkeepers of both gates had not seen her leave.
Old general Peng ordered his men to search them one by one. When he realized that his personal attendant was not around, he immediately ordered his men to call him over.
Second Gu didn’t reveal anything, and the people around him shouldn’t have noticed it either, but he felt that this matter seemed to have something to do with his long follower.
After a while, the manservant in the manor came to report that his personal attendant had not left the house today. Furthermore, the manor had not found this person.
Old general Peng personally led his men to the commander’s room and ordered them to search it.
The house was very clean, and the clothes and daily necessities were still there. It didn’t seem like he had run away.
Old general Peng’s eyes flickered, and he happened to see something very familiar near the cabinet door that his subordinate had closed. He immediately called out to stop him.”Don’t close it!”
After he finished speaking, he ran over and opened it. In the cabinet at the bottom, there was a bracelet that he had seen before. It was the bracelet that his precious granddaughter usually wore.
“Go!” Old general Peng retracted his hand and said. Pass down the order to seal the city gates and search the entire city!”
The people below immediately went to do it.
Old general Peng then sent someone to talk to Gu shouxin about this matter. He wanted to ask Gu shouxin’s men who were monitoring their family if they had seen what had happened in the morning.
