1782 Jade Book Disappeared

After Ah Zuo came in, he told Gu Xiaowan about Tan Yexing's arrival. Gu Xiaowan put on her clothes and hurried to the front hall.

Fortunately, Gu Fangxi and the others had already gone back to rest. In the front hall, Tan Yexing and Deputy General Chen Meng were sitting there with gloomy expressions.

Ayu, Tan Yushu's maid, was there, crying, her eyes flushed.

I saw that Old General Tan seemed to have aged a lot overnight, and even his hair had turned gray a lot.

Gu Xiaowan stepped forward: "General Tan..."

Seeing Gu Xiaowan help her up quickly, Tan Yexing frowned and said directly without any polite words: "Princess, the jade book is gone!"

"When did you find out?"

"An hour ago, that child Yushu liked to be lively. Last night, she told me to wake her up and burn the first stick of incense to welcome the God of Wealth. I ordered people to get up early, just waiting for this moment, but when I went to call her , there is no one in the room!"

Gu Xiaowan didn't ask if there was anything else. Tan Yexing must have searched the house and found no one, so he came here to look for it.

"Then did you go to the city to look for it?" Gu Xiaowan asked.

"I have already sent someone to look for it, but..." Tan Yexing pinched the tip of his nose haggardly, with a haggard look on his face.

Waves of people sent news, did not see the jade book, that child, who is on the first day of the new year, where can he go!

"After the New Year's Eve dinner, the lady said that she was tired and wanted to rest, and asked me to go back and rest, so I went. How could I know that it took only a few hours. When I wanted to find someone, the person disappeared. Huh..." Ayu said sadly.

"Did Yu Shu say where he was going before?" Gu Xiaowan asked.

"No, miss, she is very happy every day. She often came to play with you, princess, a few days before the new year. It's just that it's the new year, and the miss stays at home, and the miss is the same as usual. Reading books and practicing calligraphy is no different!" Ayu thought for a while and replied.

Seeing that there was no news from Ayu, although Gu Xiaowan was also worried, but seeing the sad and haggard look of the old man, she couldn't help comforting her: "General Tan, don't worry, I know, I will definitely Go all out to find it!"

Tan Yexing nodded. Since there is no one here, Princess Anping has to look elsewhere.

After Tan Ye left, Gu Xiaowan's expression became tense. On the first day of the new year, Tan Yushu disappeared.

She is a girl, was she kidnapped or left by herself?

"A Zuo, you, Ah Mo, Kou Hai and Kou Dan are all going out to find someone! You should look for all the places where the princess might go. Also, a few hours have passed, maybe she has already left the city, You also go out of the city and ask!"

A few people took orders to go, Gu Xiaowan waited anxiously at home, but after waiting and waiting, there was still no news of anyone.

The news from the Tan family's side was the same, no one was there.

Because of the disappearance of the princess, Tan Yexing blocked the news to death, and did not dare to look for it recklessly. He sent some capable subordinates to search quietly in the capital.

However, one day passed, two days passed, and there was no news not only in the city, but even outside the city.

Everyone had forgotten to look for it outside the city, but Tan Yushu seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no one had seen it.

When Tan Yexing came again, his hair was gray, and after a few days of hard work, he suddenly aged several years, and his eye sockets were sunken, obviously because he was worried that he had not had a good rest.

"I've searched in the city and outside the city, but there's still no trace of the child!" Tan Yexing clenched his fists, with a sad expression on his face.

He only has one granddaughter left now, and this is a person who is more important than his life!

It can't be said that there are many tears, but an old general who has been on the battlefield for decades, now hides his face and is speechless.

"General Tan, don't worry, you will definitely find it!" Gu Xiaowan didn't know how to comfort her, she herself was so anxious that she didn't sleep well for two days and two nights.

Where did this brat go?

But at this time, Gu Xiaoyi's nervous voice came from outside: "Sister, are you there?"

After entering, she saw Gu Xiaoyi was holding something in her hand, and she was a little nervous.

Seeing that she didn't go back to sleep, Gu Xiaowan hurriedly asked with concern: "Why don't you go back to rest?"

"Sister, I heard that General Tan is here, but what happened?" Gu Xiaoyi asked nervously.

Gu Xiaowan shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I just came to pay New Year's greetings. When the sun rises, I will also go to pay New Year's greetings!"

Gu Xiaoyi is not a child, who came to pay New Year's greetings at night, and, I heard, General Tan's anxious look, it doesn't look like he is here for New Year's greetings, even if he really came to pay New Year's greetings, how could there be less? Woolen cloth!

Seeing Gu Xiaowan say this, Tan Yexing was very grateful in his heart. It seems that she didn't even tell her own sister about Yushu's disappearance.

The less people know, the less tongue-in-cheek.

Gu Xiaoyi greeted Tan Yexing, and continued: "Sister, before the Chinese New Year, Yushu sent someone to give me something, saying that I would keep it and give it to you when the time comes! I was wondering, what is timing?" What is she going to do? It's so mysterious, and I didn't dare to move casually, so I just let it go. When I saw General Tan coming, I guessed that this matter must not be simple!"

"What? Yushu asked someone to bring you something?" Gu Xiaowan exclaimed, "Where are the things?"

Tan Yexing also jumped up from his seat in shock: "What did Yushu give you?"

Gu Xiaoyi put the head in his hand

He handed over a brocade box: "That's it! She even told me not to open it, and told me I'd give it to you when the time came. I thought she was concocting something fun to surprise you, so I put it aside and didn't move." , but now, why do I feel like something bad is about to happen!"

"It's really bad, the jade book is missing!" Gu Xiaowan brought the brocade box over and said in a deep voice.

When Gu Xiaoyi heard it, he covered his mouth and exclaimed, "What? Yushu is missing?"

Tan Yexing nodded: "I disappeared early in the morning on New Year's Day!"

They have been missing for two days and two nights!
