He ran away?

The main character ran away?

If the main character ran away, then what were they still playing for?

Xiao Budian looked at the slip of paper and the empty room. It was so big that he thought women were troublesome. One of them was unreasonable and kept pestering the other while the other ran off without a trace.

[Such a troublesome woman, and yet the Prince is actually waiting for her? I really don't know what kind of demon the Prince fell for, and why he went crazy …]

"Where the hell would Miss Xi go to play at such a late hour? Ornamental flower? Lake? "Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant?" No matter what the king was up to, he had to bring Xi Sanmo back tonight to report, so if she ran away, then he wouldn't be able to run away from the temple. His wise eyes swept over everything, finally landing on Luo Shan.

Luoshan was obviously fooled by Xi Sanmo as well. She was completely caught off guard and did not know where he was going. This was because in the capital, he did not have a place to dream about and no one had gone out at night.

She was worried for Xi Sanmo's safety, so she anxiously jumped around, meeting his cold gaze, she roared like a desperate lion, "You're asking me, who should I ask? If not for the fact that you've been pestering me for so long, Miss would have already gone to sleep. How could she have left by herself? Xiao Budian, I made it very clear earlier that my young miss is not willing to go back, and even more so, is not willing to get involved with your prince's affairs. "

"Luoshan, you'd better be clear about your identity. What right do you have to judge the matter of the prince as a lowly maidservant?" I don't want to argue with you right now, but after I find Miss Xi, I will slowly settle the score with you again. Xiao Budian wanted to protect his master, but he couldn't allow Luo Shan to act impudently towards Huo Li again and again.

When she heard Xiao Budian's words, she became even more furious. She rushed in front of him, nose to nose: "My young mistress once said that there is no nobility in life, even if your young master has lived for a long time, it is still a life. He doesn't have the right to be my young lady, nor the right to put his happiness above my young lady's pain. Xiao Budian, it's never a problem to fight against a general. I'll accept your challenge whenever you have the right to do so. Also, the disappearance of my Young Miss is already a way of telling you that she doesn't want to go back, nor does she want to bother about that damned Prince. "

"Luoshan, try cursing me again. I'll cut your mouth off right now if you don't believe me …"

"Damned prince, what's wrong? I'm going to curse. Damned prince, damnable king, you're going to die from choking on food and being struck by lightning. What do you think, you're going to cut …"

Xiao Budian's chest was heaving up and down violently. His heavy breath suddenly rushed out as the two of them looked at each other face to face. They had been enemies for several lifetimes and neither of them lost any of their aura, but the truth was that he was just scaring her.

He was angry and resentful, but in the end, he couldn't stand her gaze and could only fiercely push her away.

Luoshan took a step back to stabilize herself. However, to dare push her, she must be courting death. Her face darkened as she raised her sword to kill Xiao Budian once more.

"Alright, alright, General Xiao, Miss Luo, please stop fighting." The Chief Steward standing behind him could not take it anymore and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "Things have already happened. Scolding and fighting can't even solve the problem. If you want to solve the problem, you have to find Miss Xi first. The sky was getting darker, and the more Miss Xi stayed outside, the more dangerous it would be. You two might as well go and find Miss Xi first. Once you've found Miss Xi, it won't be too late for you two to come back for 800 rounds! "

Xi Sanmo and Huo Li had yet to settle their dispute, and the two of them were at loggerheads. If it was said that Xiao Budian and Huo Li were in the top two, then the Chief Steward was in the top four.

Xiao Budian dodged Luo Shan's sword and glared at her. He snorted coldly, "When I find Miss Xi, I'll come back and take care of you."

"Don't blame me for not warning you. My Miss has never brought money with her, and she doesn't have the time. If she were to suffer a little loss or suffer a little grievance outside tonight, I will make you pay with your head!"

Xiao Budian opened his mouth to reply, but the main butler ran between the two of them and acted as a screen, hurriedly adding: "There are a total of four doors in the house, the main entrance, two side doors, and also the west gate. I sent people to ask around, but the servants in charge of the four doors said that they did not see Miss Xi leave. I sent people to search the mansion, but still couldn't find Miss Xi. Miss Luo, according to your understanding of Miss Xi, would the unskilled Miss Xi continue to hide in the manor or climb out of the manor? "

It was also the first time that Xi Sanmo had come to the Residence of the Sky King. It was impossible for her to know where he was hiding, so the fact that he was nowhere to be found showed that he was no longer in the mansion.

But to climb over the wall?

That couldn't be possible. This red wall wasn't a slope, and each of its sides were at least ten feet high. How could she climb over them?

"If he doesn't go out, it's impossible for him to climb over the wall. Then, wouldn't he be hiding in a tree?" There were many old trees in the house. Although the leaves fell in winter, hiding a person with a thick tree trunk and a forked branch was not a problem. Xiao Budian and Luo Shan were temporarily on the same side.

Luoshan rolled her eyes at him. "My family's young lady is afraid of dogs and bugs. She wouldn't dare to climb trees."

"Then wouldn't he be hiding inside the fake cave?"

"Yes, I've checked, and I haven't found anything either."

"Did anyone investigate the lake?" Is there anyone on board? "

"Yes, I did."

"That's weird. She hasn't gone out and she hasn't even gone out yet. Don't tell me she knows how to make a hole?"

Luo Shan, who was listening at the side, didn't like hearing that. What did she mean by 'punch a hole'? She pushed away the main butler and then scolded Xiao Budian: "If you continue to be disrespectful to my Miss, I'll stamp you right now to feed the dog."

Xiao Budian was usually a very calm person, he didn't know why he wasn't convinced of Luo Shan's attitude. He stretched out his neck and said: "What, if you say something that others don't like to hear, then you're not allowed to say anything that others don't like to hear?"

"If you don't like it, you can say it, but there's one word involved with my family's young miss, and that is, even the Emperor's father can't do it."

"Yo, you talk too much. I just don't know how many people you can beat."

"It's enough if I can beat you …"

"Victory or defeat, who was it that was defeated by my blade just now …"

"Alright, alright, stop quarreling. You don't even know where this person went, how can you all still be in the mood to argue?" General Xiao, Your Highness has been waiting for quite some time. You should quickly go find someone and give Your Highness an answer! " The Chief Steward was so annoyed that he wished he had thrown them into the crematorium to work on the ashes.

Xiao Budian snorted and turned his head to the side. Luo Shan snorted and turned her head to look in the other direction.

Just as the deadlock was about to break, a servant ran in, deeply buried his head, and knelt on the ground while shivering. He stuttered, "Your servant …" Slave … Your servant deserves to die … Your servant will guard the south side door tonight... When this servant was guarding the door … Hearing strange noises in the forest... He then ran over to take a look … Finding nothing easy to do in the woods... There was actually no one guarding the south side of the gate during this period of time … But this servant was afraid … "That's why I hid the truth …"

Seeing the panic in the manor, he finally understood the seriousness of the situation. He didn't dare to hide anything from Zhang Xuan and hurriedly came to report to him.

Since she could not find anyone in the house nor leave through the other gate, she could only leave from here. Moreover, the more the servant sensed that strange sound, the more it was Xi Sanmo's deliberate scheme of luring the tiger out of the mountain.

Xiao Bufan and Luo Shan quickly headed towards the south side of the gate. The south side of the gate was blocked by a road. There were four forks in the road opposite the road. These four forks in the road led to four different urban areas.

These four districts had different shops, economic industries, and many other forks in the road. However, these four main roads would eventually converge at the south gate and lead outside the city.

The Spring and Summer Trials were at five in the morning and nine in the evening. Autumn and winter were at five in the morning and eight in the evening. If they did not leave the city by the time it was time, they would stay in the capital for the night.

Judging from the time that the servant said, it was already after 9 o'clock when Xi Sanmo left, so it was impossible to leave the city. She must have been in the city.

However, it was not easy to find her within the city. The capital city was a complex city and had many things to do with it. If one was not careful, they could pass her by.

After looking around, Xiao Budian gave the order decisively: "The main butler sent a servant to the Xi Mansion to see if Miss Xi had sneaked back. She is a smart person, so she must know that the more dangerous the place, the safer it is. If she's not here and the Prince asks again, you can say that Miss Xi is curious about the night market and has not returned for a long time after going out to play. "

The chief steward nodded in agreement.

Xiao Budian continued: "We need to find Miss Xi quickly. Send another servant to notify the left deputy general and have him send out a thousand elite troops to find Miss Xi. Remember, you are an elite soldier. You are not allowed to disturb the people. You are not allowed to spread the news. "Inns, restaurants, streets, forests, and other places that can hide people, you have to search carefully."

After arranging all this, Xiao Budian doubled his manpower and strictly guarded the four doors of Duke Yuan Palace: "If Miss Xi comes back, remember to send out a signal at the first moment, signalling for everyone to retreat."

After Xiao Budian had made all the arrangements, he departed. Luo Shan hurried to catch up with him.

The night was as dark as water.

The wind was as cold as knives.

However, no one knew where Xi Sanmo was. The two of them walked forward, one in front of the other, as they scanned their surroundings vigilantly.

At the dark corner, they would go there to see if Xi Sanmo was hiding.

There was a shadow of a cat on the ground. They would also go over to take a look, but they found out that it was a drunkard who reeked of alcohol.

When she met the security guards and their guards who were on patrol, Luo Shan would run to them and ask, "Have you seen a young lady wearing a silver dress with such a high height and such a hairstyle?"

No matter who was asked, their reply was the same: "I don't know, I didn't meet with them."

Where did he go? Luo Shan was so anxious that she wanted to cry, but Xiao Budian's mind flashed as he shouted: "Tavern! Could he have gone to the brothel? "

If Xi Sanmo really did not wish to return to the mansion to meet the prince, then she would hide in a place where no one could find her. Since the inn was such a conspicuous place, she could not hide.

Thus, the only place she could hide was the brothel. She could avoid their eyes and ears, because who would have thought that a girl would be so bold as to hide inside the brothel.

Yes, it must be in the brothel …

Just as Xiao Budian finished his guesses, Luo Shan was already flustered and exasperated. She pulled out her cold sword and mercilessly stabbed at his heart.

To dare tarnish the reputation of her young mistress, he must die!

Xiao Budian was in a hurry to find someone, so he didn't show any courtesy. He dodged her sword and flew up to the roof. Under the night sky, he ran all the way to the Pleasing Jun Restaurant.

There were over a hundred women on the third floor of the Pleasing Monarch Restaurant. Due to their large scale and numerous choices, the guests here had always remained tall, becoming the leaders of the capital's brothels. Xiao Budian was unable to get close to them and could hear their laughter from afar, overflowing from the brightly lit brothels.

Will Xi Sanmo be inside?

Xiao Budian couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. In fact, Luo Shan couldn't accept this outcome. Even the prince couldn't accept this outcome. How could a girl from such a good family enter and leave a brothel like this?

Don't be inside, don't be inside...

However, Xiao Budian had never expected that not only was Xi Sanmo there, he was even at the Smoke Lane in the capital. Currently, she was disguised as a man and stood blankly at the entrance, unable to move an inch.

That's right, she wanted to hide in the brothel for the night, but she didn't think that she would stumble into such a popular place in the Misty Flower Lane …

Be good!

Other than not being able to sleep, this place could do anything else!

She turned around and left. Although she couldn't live in a brothel tonight, she still had to live in the best brothel in the capital. Pleasing Jun Tower was not bad, but where was it?

Having no idea where she was, Xi Sanmo could only throw off his loose robes and walk slowly along the dark path. She had been keeping an eye out for this entire time, but she didn't notice that a black shadow had been following her closely from a distance. He had followed her for a long time …
