Chapter 893 The Baby Girl
After returning to the inn, Qin Zhou issued two imperial edicts.
The first one was to look for Murong Jie all over the world, no matter where he was, he would be brought back to heaven and earth.
The second one was to take her handwritten order and go to the nearby guard camp to mobilize 3,000 troops.
"Your Majesty, if you do this, you will startle the snakes."
The so-called startling the snakes refers to the officials of Fengzhou.
Qin Zhou said: "I am here, it doesn't matter what snakes are startled, if there are poisonous snakes, they can always be caught."
When Rouyao and Ajing heard this, they knew that she would spend a while here.
After Murong Jie left the capital, he wanted to find the Empress Dowager, but he knew that finding the Empress Dowager was as difficult as finding Zi'an, so he wanted to go back to Miaojiang.
He almost ran around the Miaojiang area.
He also ran to the nearby prefectures and counties several times, holding Zi'an's portrait and asking around, but there was no one who looked like him.
That day, he came to Bei'an County, which belonged to the territory of Qin State, but he had never been here before.
He still asked around with the portrait. In fact, he knew that asking was unnecessary because he had never received any good news in the past two years.
However, this time he asked the owner of the tea stall. The owner looked at it for a long time, but said thoughtfully: "If I say that I have never seen the person in the portrait, I have seen a baby girl. Her eyebrows and eyes are very similar to the woman in this portrait. It's like they were carved from the same mold."
Murong Jie was already slowly rolling up the portrait. Hearing the words of the tea stall owner, he stepped on the bench and grabbed the owner's collar, his eyes bulging with excitement, "Baby girl? How old? When? Where? Who is taking this baby girl? Isn't the person taking her the same person as the one in the portrait?"
The boss was so scared that he trembled all over, "Sir, I... I don't know her. It's just that he brought her to drink tea that day. I saw that the baby girl was pretty, so I teased her for a few times. She was about two years old. The one who took her... was her father!"
Two years old, two years old, it matches, it matches.
But, her father?
"Are you sure it's her father? Not her uncle or some outsider?" Murong Jie thought of thousands of possibilities in his mind, maybe it was the person who saved Zi'an.
He even thought about Zi'an giving her his body to repay his kindness. He didn't mind. As long as she was still alive, he didn't mind anything.
Murong Jie knew that he was too excited and scared him, so he let go and ironed his clothes for him, "Do you know where he is from?"
The boss quickly jumped a few steps away and kept a distance from this madman, "This guy should be a local in Bei'an from his accent, as for the details, I really don't know."
A local in Bei'an? That's easy, Bei'an is not big, and he will definitely find it.
He immediately sent a letter to Gao Fengtian, asking him to send someone to help find it.
This is the Qin area, and he can't let the people of Da Zhou come.
He didn't wait for Gao Fengtian to come, so he went to Bei'an County.
In Bei'an, he unexpectedly found a person.
It was Boss Dao, who dressed like a Qin person, wearing coarse cloth clothes, carrying a sack and quickly shuttled through the crowd.
When Murong Jie grabbed him, he turned around and saw Murong Jie, and was stunned, "Wang...Prince?"
"Xiaodao, why are you here?" Murong Jie asked.
Boss Dao quickly put down the sack and lowered his voice, "I'm looking for the princess."
Murong Jie's heart was thumping, "Is the princess here?"
Boss Dao shook his head, "Not sure, but I've seen a little girl who looks exactly like the princess."
"Where is she?" Murong Jie was overjoyed. He hadn't even started looking, and he immediately had a clue. It was great.
Boss Dao looked dejected, "I don't know, but it's in Bei'an County. At that time, I only saw her from a distance and felt that she was very similar. When I ran down, she was gone."
Murong Jie was not disappointed. He saw two people in a row, proving that Zi'an was indeed here. Although it was just a similar baby girl, if she was about two years old, it would fit.
Murong Jie's heart was still beating wildly. He had a daughter. Zi'an gave birth to a daughter for him.
"Let's look for it together. Where do you live now?" Murong Jie asked.
Boss Dao said quickly: "I live in the Dragon King Temple. It's a good place. Sometimes people pay tribute to me, and I can even save money for food."
"Is there a Dragon King Temple here?" This Beimo... There are not many places near the sea or the river in Daqin. Generally, there are Dragon King Temples only in places where people live by the water.
As for Dazhou, there are many Dragon King Temples because of the legend of the Regent King Qingtian, who said that he was the reincarnation of a fire dragon.
"Yes, it's not far away. I'll take you there after I deliver the goods." Boss Dao said.
Murong Jie wanted to follow Boss Dao because he was not familiar with Bei'an.
After Boss Dao delivered the goods, he followed him to the Dragon King Temple.
The layout of this Dragon King Temple is indeed the same as that of Dazhou, but this Dragon King is a little different. He looks more like a heroic general, and his eyebrows and eyes are also like those of the Murong family.
Murong Jie looked at the image of the Dragon King and always felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
Boss Dao took him into the backyard of the Dragon King Temple. Sure enough, there was a small room with a bed and some daily necessities in it. It was very messy.
"Do you live on the tributes that the people give to the Dragon King?" Murong Jie asked.
"Not entirely. There are more tributes on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, but less on weekdays. But the tributes on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month can last for half a month. I go out to work and can make some money by delivering goods like today. It's always possible. Subsistence."
Murong Jie knew that Boss Dao couldn't live without food. In his opinion, eating was the most important thing for an emperor. Now, in order to find Zian, he even had to make do with food.
He felt something, "You are very good to Zian. If she knew, she would be very touched."
Boss Dao said: "If something happens to the princess, it's my responsibility to go find her."
Responsibility was the two words Zian said to him the most when he went to Miao territory.
He doesn't understand anything, but he knows that his responsibility is to protect the princess. This is his responsibility.
Even if his leg is broken while running, he still has to find it.
Murong Jie sat on the only small bench in the room, which was made by Boss Dao himself.
Dao Laodaodao: "Your Majesty, your status does not allow you to live here. Go out and find an inn. I have money."
"No need, I'll hang out with you here." Murong Jie slept in many places in the past two days, in mountains and forests, on high mountains, in ruined temples, in residential buildings, wherever it was flat, he would sleep when he felt sleepy.
In the days after he lost her, he felt how ridiculous it was for those people to spend their lives seeking glory and wealth or fighting for military and political power. The best thing was the people around them.
If he was allowed to find Zian, he would have nothing to ask for in his life.
"My lord, do you want to sleep here?" Boss Dao looked at him in surprise.
He is the prince.
Murong Jie glanced at him, "What? Do you dislike me?"
Dao Boss said quickly: "How dare I dislike you? I'm just afraid of giving in to you."
Murong Jie looked at his honest and courteous face, remained silent for a moment, and said, "Xiao Dao, thank you for never giving up."
