After dinner, Shi Che was also a little tired because he came back all the way, so he went to wash and sleep in the palace where he lived.

The first prince, the second prince, and the little princess didn't sleep in the side hall of the emperor's bedroom until it was a little late at night, and Queen Tuoba returned to the main hall of the bedroom.

As soon as she entered the main hall, she saw her husband, the current emperor Shi Yuan, who was standing by the window looking at the dark night outside, holding the missing person notice in his hand, fascinated.

"emperor."

It wasn't until she called out softly that he regained his senses.

Seeing him smiling, he asked, "Are the children asleep?"

"En." Queen Tuoba nodded lightly and came to his side.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "I'm going to Stone Village."

Someone had posted so many tracing notices looking for him, and since he saw the tracing notice, something was wrong. Queen Tuoba could see that her husband was very concerned about this matter, but she did not expect her husband to go there in person. She was stunned for a moment, but then nodded, with a smile on her face, and replied, "Okay."

She has always been like this, like a light wind and drizzle, but it still makes him feel comfortable.

I saw him hug her and said, "Thank you."

It was not until December 16 that Shi Yuan came to the entrance of Stone Village.

It was extremely cold today, and the north wind was blowing. Almost everyone in Shitou Village hid on the kang to keep warm, and no one was outside. Therefore, Shi Yuan and a few guards dressed in ordinary clothes entered Shitou Village. At the time, no one was seen.

After walking a few steps, I saw that the yard door was open, there were chatter and laughter in the room, both the elderly and children were happy.

Shi Yuan just stepped forward and did not enter the courtyard, but stood at the door of the courtyard and knocked on the door.

After a while, there was a middle-aged man in the room wearing a thick hat and a patched but thick cotton-padded jacket. He put his hands in his sleeves, exhaled hot air, rushed out, and asked enthusiastically, "You guys Who are you looking for? Do you want to come and sit in our house?"

Shi Yuan smiled and said, "Don't bother, thank you eldest brother for your kindness." Then he took out the tracing notice and asked, "Big brother, the Xue family on this tracing notice is in this village, right? How can I get there?"

The middle-aged man immediately lit up and said, "Finally someone is here! Brother, are you the one you are looking for on the missing person notice?"

Shi Yuan smiled and said, "I think it's me, so let's check to see if he's looking for me."

"That's true! That's great!" The middle-aged man excitedly took his hands out of his sleeves.

But it was too cold, and he was so cold that he sniffed and wiped it on his hands. "Let's go, I'll take you there, right in front."

Having said that, he was even more enthusiastic to lead the way directly in front.

Shi Yuan followed and thanked him: "It's such a cold day, thank you eldest brother."

"Thank you." The middle-aged man laughed, and Bai Bai's heat kept coming out. "If you are really the person Xue and Mrs. Jiang are looking for, it's too late for us to thank you. You don't know how long we have been looking for you! We have been looking for you since May, and it's already the twelfth lunar month. It's almost New Year's Eve, but no one has ever come to say that it is the person Xue Gongzi and Madam Jiang are looking for. After so long, you are the only one here! Anyway, I hope you are!"

When Shi Yuan heard about Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Jiang, she didn't know who Mrs. Jiang was, but Mr. Xue made him a little happy. Could it be his brother?

Seeing Shi Yuan, he asked, "Dare to ask Master Xue and Madam Jiang's first and last names...?"

The middle-aged man didn't think too much, so he opened his mouth and answered enthusiastically: "Master Xue's name is Xue Yan, and Mrs. Jiang is the wife of Master Xue Yan, and her name is Jiang Yue."

Xue Yan...

Shi Yuan's footsteps stopped for a moment, and the whole person was a little stunned. Isn't he Xue Yan... Could it be that one of his older brothers used his name to find him...

As for the name Jiang Yue, there was a man named Jiang Yue in Bailiu Village next to Huaishu Village in his original world, but that was a baby girl who died at her uncle's house at the age of three and a half...

The middle-aged man walked a few steps, but when Shi Che didn't see him, he turned around and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you leave?"

Only then did Shi Yuan come back to his senses, hurriedly followed up, and said with a smile, "It's all right, please continue to lead the way." Then he asked, "Big brother, what does that son Xue Yan look like?"

Only then did the middle-aged man realize that something was wrong, "Don't you know each other?" Before Shi Che could speak, the man nodded to himself again, "No wonder Master Xue told Tao Zhen that, to be honest, they I don't know what the person they are looking for now is called or what he looks like, but if that person sees the missing person notice, they will know that they are looking for him."

Hearing this, Shi Yuan was even more happy.

It's more like his family has also come here, so they will find him in this way.

but……

"Who is Tao Zhen?"

"Tao Zhen is the youngest son of our village chief. Haha, by the way, I haven't answered your question just now. Mr. Xue is very good, and Mrs. Jiang is very good. Both the village chief and Tao Zhen say that they are talented and beautiful. , and also said that the bearing is extraordinary, which is probably the case."

Only the length is particularly good, the bearing is extraordinary...

This is a bit embarrassing for Shi Yuan. I can't imagine what the young master Xue and Mrs. Jiang look like in the mouth of this middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was still leading the way, while continuing to say, "If only you should have come earlier, in fact, Young Master Xue and Madam Jiang are not in Stone Village, but they came again a month ago, and asked if anyone came. We looked for them in the village, we said no, and they went back again."

"Go back? Aren't they from this village?"

"No, they came to our village for the first time at the end of March this year. Later, they would come every once in a while. In order to make it easier for those they were looking for to find them, they settled in our village. Home, if someone comes to look for them, just say the surname Xue and we will know that they are looking for them. There is no one surnamed Xue in our village. I am taking you to Shoushou's house now, and their tenderness is still in Shoushou's house. The carriage is also behind the house, and Shou Shou and his father Zhang Dazhu are helping to take care of it."

"Then where are their homes, do you know?"

The middle-aged man shook his head: "I don't know. They are good to the people in our village, and they are the great benefactors of our village. If it wasn't for them, we probably wouldn't have waited for the emperor to find out what happened in the Lizhou area. If they starve to death, if they don’t say anything, we naturally won’t ask, making them embarrassed.”

Shi Yuan nodded, indicating that he understood, and then asked again, "Then when will they come back to this village next time?"

"I don't know either. Our villagers don't know either. Sometimes it's more than 20 days, sometimes it's more than a month, it's almost two months. Anyway, I can't tell." The middle-aged man told the truth.
