Chapter 242 Missing now, For Yi Xiaochuan, there are two most difficult things: First, after Liu Ji's death, if Hu Hai doubted him, how should he respond? Secondly, Hu Hai gave him a difficult task of "finding binoculars". The cold wind in the early morning was especially biting. Yi Xiaochuan pretended to be nonchalant, came to the courtyard, and started sweeping the floor and chopping firewood. After becoming an official slave, doing these things became his daily routine. After a quarter of an hour. The housekeeper of the mansion came to the courtyard and began to inspect and inspect these official slaves. The official slaves in the mansion are all under the control of the steward of the Young Master's mansion. The housekeeper walked around with a scrutinizing gaze. at the same time, The housekeeper silently counted the number of official slaves in his mind. He soon discovered that an official slave was missing.
"Why is there one person missing?" "It's this hour, who hasn't gotten up to work yet?" The housekeeper glanced at all the official slaves present and asked sternly. The voice fell, The official slaves standing here looked at each other and trembled. I'm sulking in my heart, what's going on? Did the housekeeper and the young master Hu Hai think of another way to torment them? The official slaves looked at each other a few times, and soon they discovered that, The few people here are Liu Ji. then, These official slaves, you speak to me one by one. "Butler, it seems that the person who didn't come is Liu Ji." "Yeah, Liu Ji didn't come, he couldn't be still sleeping in the room." "What happened? Then where did Liu Ji go?" "Yi Xiaochuan, haven't you always lived with Liu Ji? Where did Liu Ji go?" "." After a moment, everyone focused their doubtful eyes on Yi Xiaochuan. now, Yi Xiaochuan naturally noticed the burning and scrutinizing gazes of everyone and the butler. However, on the surface, he appears to be extremely calm. Yi Xiaochuan directly came up with the rhetoric he had prepared in advance.
He also calmly replied: "Brother Liu Ji? To be honest, I didn't see him after I got up in the morning. I thought he came to work early." After Yi Xiaochuan finished speaking, His heart was beating up and down, and he was extremely uneasy. The whole person was extremely nervous, fearing that his lie would be exposed. "I understand. You lowly official slaves must not be lazy and do your work properly." After hearing Yi Xiaochuan's answer, the housekeeper rolled his eyes at him and left. Subsequently, The housekeeper called two servants of the house and asked them to look for Liu Ji immediately. However, after two hours, The two palace officials who were sent to look for Liu Ji also came back. He came to the housekeeper of Young Master Hu Hai's house and reported: "My subordinates. My subordinates have searched all the places in the Young Master's house and all the places near the gate of the house." "What's the result? Did you find it?" the housekeeper asked immediately. He knew that Liu Ji was just an official slave and had no role. However, every official slave in Da Qin was registered. If any of the official slaves were found escaping without permission, their master's residence would be implicated. "Not found, my subordinates are incompetent." After hearing this question, the governor immediately lowered his head and said ashamedly. "I know, you guys, go down." Hearing this, the housekeeper responded, and at the same time, a somewhat sad look appeared on his face. He decided to report the matter to the young master Hu Hai. After Hu Hai learned about this incident, he was instantly furious. "What? Liu Ji is missing?" He shouted loudly, "Yes, sir, I don't know where Liu Ji went." The housekeeper knew that the temper of this "little devil" in their house was really unstable, so he answered tremblingly, lowering his head when he spoke. "With Liu Ji's absence, I have one less punching bag." "I believe that even if Liu Ji escapes from our mansion, he will not be able to run far without having both arms," "Send a few people to search for Liu Ji throughout Xianyang City. Once you find him, bring him back to me immediately." After Prince Hu Hai thought for a moment, he gave an order very willfully. "Yes, sir, my subordinates will go make arrangements immediately."
The housekeeper couldn't stop him and could only agree, and then left here. After the butler leaves, Young Master Hu Hai fell into deep thought. What happened to Liu Ji? Did he really run away? Or what? but, Young Master Hu Hai quickly forgot about Liu Ji's absence. Because, in his heart, he was looking forward to the binoculars even more. It was extremely regrettable that he did not experience the binoculars at Zhao Che's house. at dusk, Xianyang, on the street. Zhao Che and Xiang Yu were walking on the street, Zhao Che is dressed in black, with a jade crown on his hair, a face like a crown jade, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. Xiang Yu followed Zhao Che. Overtly, Xiang Yu is Zhao Che's bodyguard. In the dark, Xiang Yu is the captain of the Flying Tigers. Furthermore, After the special operations team's training in recent days, Zhao Che also discovered that Xiang Yu is fully qualified for the position of captain of the special operations team. While the two were walking, Directly in front of them came several young men wearing clothes that looked like government officials. They were running around asking passers-by one after another, When these palace officials asked passers-by, they still held the portrait of Liu Ji in their hands. In fact, Several of them were from the residence of the young master Hu Hai, who sent them to Xianyang City to look for the missing official slave Liu Ji. When Zhao Che passed by those palace officials, he also took a clear look at the portrait. The portrait above is indeed Liu Ji. When Zhao Che learned about this, he quickly thought about it in his mind. Zhao Che quickly understood the whole story. It was Liu Ji who disappeared, The people from Young Master Hu Hai's house are looking for him in Xianyang City. Afterwards, Zhao Che called the palace servants back and said, "When you go back, tell your young master that Liu Ji's whereabouts should be carefully searched in the palace." Naturally, Zhao Che didn’t know Liu Ji’s whereabouts either. only, His intuition and logic told him that Liu Ji should not have left the son Hu Hai's house. If he left the house of Young Master Hu Hai, it would be impossible for everyone on the street to have seen Liu Ji due to Liu Ji's obvious feature of not having two arms. "Thank you, Master Zhao. I will definitely tell the young master after I return." When several members of the Hu Hai Mansion saw that it was Zhao Che, they did not dare to be indifferent in the slightest and immediately spoke respectfully.
After finishing speaking, Zhao Che and Xiang Yu continued walking in the direction of the Imperial Master's Mansion. on the way, Zhao Che looked at Xiang Yu and said, "Xiang Yu, tell me, Liu Ji is not dead, right?" "What you said makes sense." "It's just that if it's already dead, you should be able to see the body." Xiang Yu replied. (End of this chapter)
