"It's okay. I'm fine."
Lin Mengya, who was nearly five months pregnant, was still very flexible. Her belly was not as big as that of ordinary pregnant women.
As long as he wore loose clothes, he could easily hide it.
Moreover, not many people knew that she was pregnant, so it was better for her to keep a low profile.
Lin Mengya got off the carriage and looked around.
This was the place where His Majesty and Wanyan Lie had agreed to send Xiu.
The scale of the city was not small, and it looked very prosperous with people coming and going.
If one wanted to hide a person here, it would indeed not be easy to find them.
The house in front of her was very inconspicuous, and there was nothing special about it from the outside.
"This is the chosen place, but the people here didn't see any trace of Xiu and Uncle Lie. But the people at the city gate said that they did see them come in. They can't just disappear into thin air, right? "
This was also what Xiaoyu couldn't figure out. Lin Mengya nodded and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
This area should be a residential area in the city. Judging from the style of the surrounding buildings and the degree of wear and tear, the people who could live here were generally some low-ranking officials or rich people.
Generally, such a place would not be particularly chaotic, and the security environment was good.
This alley was spacious and bright, and it was connected to the bustling street in front and behind, which made it feel like it was hidden in the world.
Lin Mengya stepped into the door in front of her. The courtyard with two entrances was spacious and bright.
And the decoration here was different from the plain outside. It had all the necessary things. Considering Xiu's identity, they used the best things on the market.
In the courtyard, five servants knelt there, trembling. Obviously, they were afraid that this group of nobles would blame them.
Lin Mengya looked at them one by one and felt that there was nothing unusual about these five people.
"Guests, have they really not been here?"
Seeing the beautiful woman in the middle speak, the middle-aged man who was in charge of the group immediately replied.
"In reply to your question, the two guests did not come. I went out early in the morning to wait, and didn't even see the guests. "
She frowned slightly and looked around.
It wouldn't take more than an hour to walk from the city gate to this house.
Everything was normal when Wanyan Lie and A'xiu entered the city. What had happened in the past hour?
With a wave of his hand, he dismissed the five terrified men.
Xiaoyu immediately helped Lin Mengya to sit on a chair in the main hall. Baisu served her a cup of fruit milk. Everyone's eyes were focused on her.
"How long does it take to get here from King City?"
Lin Mengya asked a question thoughtfully, and Xiaoyu, who had been waiting at the side, immediately answered.
"If it's a horse, it'll take about a day and a half. If it's a carriage, it'll take at least two days. Also, this is not the only way to enter and exit King City, so — "
Lin Mengya understood Xiaoyu's words very well. She also knew that if Wanyan Lie wanted to take Xiu away in advance, there was no need for him to come here.
As long as they took a turn on the road, they could take Xiu away.
However, he still followed the original plan and brought Xiu here.
This could only mean one thing. Maybe Wanyan Lie hadn't changed his mind before entering the city.
But in the short span of an hour, what made him suddenly change his mind?
"Have your men chased after him along this road? You and Wanyan Lie should have agreed on a place and a secret line, right? Didn't Wanyan Lie use these people? "
Xiaoyu shook his head, and his delicate face was full of helplessness.
If Wanyan Lie had contacted them, he wouldn't have been so anxious.
Lin Mengya put down the teacup in her hand, but her brain was working quickly.
It was said that a wild goose leaves a trace when it flies. Given Wanyan Lie's status, even if his traces were carefully covered, there would be more traces left.
Moreover, judging from his previous behavior, Lin Mengya felt that Wanyan Lie didn't seem to have a plan.
In this case, it was very likely that Wanyan Lie and A'xiu were still hiding in this city if they wanted to avoid everyone's sight.
If that was the case, things would be much easier for her to handle.
"Send someone to look for them secretly. Maybe A'xiu and Wanyan Lie haven't left."
Hearing this, Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, and then said with a wry smile.
"My father and I have thought about it, but we have searched the city secretly, but still haven't found any trace of them."
But Lin Mengya smiled and looked at Xiaoyu tenderly.
"You are familiar with Wanyan Lie, and Wanyan Lie is also familiar with you. Think about it, he doesn't have money or people on hand right now. Once he contacts his former subordinates, you will find out. And I think he seems to have made up his mind on a whim. In this case, even his trusted subordinates can't react in time. Later, when you notice that he is missing, the first thing you think of is to monitor his trusted subordinates. So if I were Wanyan Lie, I would choose to stay here. But at the same time, he also knows that you will search like this. In this case, isn't it too easy to hide from you? "
Lin Mengya knew that it was dark under the light, and Wanyan Lie was also an expert in playing tricks.
It was a piece of cake for Wanyan Lie to hide from the King's search.
"That's true, but just like what my sister said, Uncle Lie is too familiar with my father's methods. Then … then what should we do without alarming Uncle Lie? "
Lin Mengya smiled, and her smile was a little naughty, just like the devil's smile every time she wanted to do something.
"That's easy. Come closer to me."
Xiaoyu put his head close to Lin Mengya suspiciously. After Lin Mengya whispered a few words in his ear, Xiaoyu's face immediately lit up.
"Sister, is this okay?"
Although Xiaoyu had tried his best, he was still a pure and innocent boy. He couldn't be as bold and unrestrained as a married woman like Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya gave her a look to tell her to leave it to her, and then leaned back in the chair calmly.
"Don't worry. Nothing can't be done by your sister. Just do as I say, and I guarantee that Wanyan Lie won't find out. "
In the end, Xiaoyu trusted Lin Mengya more. After gritting his teeth, he left in a hurry with his men.
Lin Mengya slumped in the chair calmly. These days, she was just waiting to watch a good show.
As the largest city near Wang City, people in An City had been in a state of panic recently.
This was especially so for those families with virgins. They were jittery at the slightest sound, and everyone felt insecure.
The reason was that there was a rapist in An City.
Speaking of this rapist, he was a big scourge in An City.
It was said that he fled from other places and had a wanted order from many counties.
This person's martial arts were superb, but his means were extremely bad.
Although the rapist did not harm the eldest daughter of any family, he had a special hobby, which was to steal girls' intimate clothes.
After stealing, he would also comment on the embroidery and the cloth.
The most infuriating thing was that he would write all his preferences on that piece of clothing and then hang it on the beam of the main hall.
As for the standard of evaluation, it was different from one star to five stars.
So far, the Fourth Miss of the City Lord's family had the highest score. She got four and a half stars in terms of material and workmanship.
It was said that the first reaction of the Fourth Miss when she saw her undergarment was naturally so angry that she cried, and the reason was that the rapist did not give her a full score of five stars.
But even so, An City was in a state of panic.
As long as there was a little extra money in the family, they would hire a few people with martial arts to guard the house.
In the family without money, of course, it was the father and brother who took the responsibility. As for the family without money, the government had no choice but to open a big house, gather these girls together, and let the officials take care of them.
Even so, the rapist succeeded again and again, and An City had long been in a mess.
"Tut, girl, how long do you want me to do such a boring thing?"
In an inconspicuous house in An City, Qinghu looked at the woman's undergarment in front of him, and his eyes were full of helplessness.
Yes, they were the culprits who caused chaos in An City.
But every time, it was Baisu in disguise who went in and out of the woman's boudoir, and it was Qinghu who did the work of hanging the undergarment in the central room.
Of course, it was Lin Mengya who was in charge of the score.
"Soon, in a few days."
She didn't want to continue to make trouble. In fact, the girls in the families who were robbed all knew that the so-called rapist was a woman.
But women's minds were so strange. The first family to be robbed was the one they arranged.
But since they heard that there would be a score, from the second family onwards, the girl actually had a tacit attitude.
Although their fathers and brothers were shouting loudly, in fact, many girls who didn't care about trifles even secretly hung their best dudou on the window, waiting for the rapist to steal it. At the same time, they could also check their scores.
Of course, only they and those girls knew about this. Everyone had a tacit understanding with each other, and it was a tacit understanding.
But Lin Mengya was once again stunned by the boldness of the girls in Lieyun. If this happened in Dajin, she was afraid that several people would be killed.
In the words of one of the girls, the higher the score, the better the craftsmanship.
In this way, when they got married in the future, there would be proof.
Seeing this kind of thing forcibly turned into a capital for the girls to show off in the future, even Lin Mengya did not expect this result.
"Do you think Wanyan Lie will really show up? That old guy is not simple. If we do this, if we can't force him to show up, we will alert the enemy. "
