By the time Cui Yue got Zhang Nan's "word after word" letter, it was already a day later, although Zhang Nan and Momen had reached a consensus, Mozu still let Ah Da look at it for an early morning, and risked being caught by Wuhou patrolling the street to curfew, so he put Zhang Nan's letter at the door of Zhang's mansion.

In order not to let Li Er catch the clues of Zhang Nan's disappearance.

Coming early in the morning, Lao Su opened the door of Zhang's mansion as usual and waited for the newsboy who sent the "Datang Daily" to deliver the newspaper, forgetting to say that the current "Datang Daily" delivery work has been distributed to the children of poor families, and now these children can't go to the field to do farm work for the family, but with the "Datang Daily", they can be regarded as finding a job to subsidize the family.

For every fifth copy of Datang Daily sold, the newsboy who delivers newspapers and sells newspapers part-time can get paid a penny.

Lao Su opened the door, stretched out at the rising sun, and at a glance, Lao Su saw a "double carp" not far from his feet.

(After the Wei and Jin dynasties and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, correspondence gradually evolved from wood to paper.) The envelope was instead made of two sheets of thick blue paper, with drawings of carp on both sides. Until the Tang Dynasty, the Chinese were still copying carp-shaped envelopes. Therefore, in ancient China, the envelope was called "double carp")

Lao Su picked up the envelope curiously, but did not open the letter, but ran to the backyard to find Cui Yue's personal maid Qiu'er, and asked Qiu'er to send the letter to Mrs. into the room.

Lao Su naturally knew that his wife had gotten up early, since the day his master disappeared, his wife didn't think about tea and food every day, and the whole person was a lot haggard, not to mention sleeping lazily, even falling asleep every day became a problem, so Lao Su asked Qiu'er to hand over the letter to Cui Yue.

Qiu'er knocked on Cui Yue's door, stood outside the door and said, "Madam, Steward Su received a letter at the door, and Steward Su said to let Mrs. you take a look." ”

Cui Yue heard that someone was sending a letter, and his face was strange, who would send a letter without something? But Cui Yue thought about it, this letter was very likely to be related to Zhang Nan's whereabouts, so he hurriedly said: "Hurry up, bring it in and let me see." ”

Qiu'er answered, entered the door, and handed the letter to Cui Yue.

Cui Yue opened the envelope and immediately recognized that this was Zhang Nan's note, not only because the handwriting of the letter was really ugly and distinctive, but also because of Zhang Nan's unique letter writing format.

Ordinary people write letters vertically and downward from right to left, only Zhang Nan writes from left to right, horizontally, and there is a unique thing in Zhang Nan's letter, called "punctuation".

Cui Yue knew at a glance that this thing was from Zhang Nan's handwriting, because except for Zhang Nan, no one would use this punctuation mark. Of course, this is what Zhang Nan said personally.

Cui Yue once forced Zhang Nan to practice writing for a few days, but Zhang Nan's temperament really couldn't calm down, and he was unwilling to practice writing, according to Zhang Nan, now that he is in this position, there is nothing that he needs to write by himself, as long as he can command.

In addition, Zhang Nan was sent by Li Er to accompany Li Chengqian on the prairie within a few days of practicing calligraphy, so the matter of practicing calligraphy was over, but Cui Yue still remembered what Zhang Nan had written.

As soon as Cui Yue saw that the letter was from Zhang Nan's notes, the whole person's uneasy heart immediately relaxed, but this relaxation doesn't matter, Cui Yue has not rested well in the past two days, and his emotions are very unstable, after this great sorrow and joy, Cui Yue can no longer support it, and the whole person faints.

Qiu'er, who was guarding the door, heard the movement, and immediately entered the house, and found that Cui Yue had fainted, Qiu'er hurriedly beckoned a few maids to take care of Cui Yue, and she ran quickly to Cui's mansion, ready to report this matter to Cui Shao.

Now that Zhang Nan, the head of the family, is not there, and his wife has fainted again, the only one who can be the master of Zhang's mansion is Cui Shao, the old man.

By the time Qiu'er ran to Cui's mansion, Cui Shao had just gone out and was about to go to the morning court. The early time of the Tang Dynasty was completely dependent on the sun, and the "New Tang Dynasty Book" recorded, "When a bachelor enters the office, he often looks at the shadow of the sun." "And now it's winter, and the sun comes out late, so when Qiu'er just ran to Cui's mansion, Cui Shao had just gone out to prepare to go to the court.

"Master, it's not good." Qiu'er panted and ran in front of Cui Shao, Cui Shao naturally recognized Qiu'er, the personal maid who had been accompanying Cui Yue, seeing Qiu'er's panicked and unseemly appearance, Cui Shao frowned and said, "What's the matter, say something slowly, don't panic." ”

Cui Shao's mood is also very bad these days, his son-in-law was kidnapped, his daughter is not in good spirits all day, and his wife is also worried about his son-in-law and daughter's body every day, and Cui Shao is running for Zhang Nan's affairs every day, and the whole person's temper can be so good.

According to Cui Shao's understanding, Zhang Nan's kidnapping this time was completely premeditated and planned, and it was an action against their Cui family.

"Miss, Miss, she received a letter at the house this morning, and after reading it, Miss fainted." Qiu'er slowly gasped and said.

As soon as he heard that Cui Yue fainted, and after reading a letter, Cui Shao immediately thought of the letter that the donkey's lips were not in the horse's mouth, and now Zhang Fu received another letter, and his daughter fainted after reading the letter, it must be that something happened to his son-in-law.

Thinking of this, Cui Shao said to the people beside him: "You go to Lord Wang's side, and say that he will help me take a leave, saying that something happened in the house, and there is no way to go to the court this morning, and I ask the emperor to forgive me." After speaking, Cui Shao didn't wait for Qiu'er, turned his head and rode to Zhang Nan's mansion by himself.

Wang Mozhi got the news of Cui Shao's leave, and naturally he didn't think much about it, Cui Shao has been busy for the past two days, and the news of Zhang Nan's disappearance has spread throughout Chang'an City, and now that Cui Shao has taken leave, it must be Cui Shao's baby son-in-law who has news, otherwise Cui Shao would not have been able to ask for leave directly and not even bring it with him.

came to the Taiji Palace, and after Liu Bing shouted "Shang Dynasty", Wang Mozhi stood up and arched his hand to Li Er and said: "Your Majesty, there is an accident in the house of Cui Shaocui, the head of the household department today, so the court asked the ministers to help take leave this morning." ”

Li Eryi, who was originally not interested in the last dynasty now, heard that something had happened in Cui Shao's mansion, and he couldn't even go to the court, and immediately a bad feeling came to his heart, Li Er hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, is there news from Qingquan?" ”
