After seeing off her sister, Pingping and Lele went home quietly with their parents, looking at their father and mother from time to time, as if hesitating to speak.

Everyone knew that they wanted to follow, so they pretended not to see each other, which made the eyes of the two teenagers turn red.

Qin Xinfang and the others thought they were wronged, and they didn't dare to ask, lest they would be even more sad.

When the group returned home, everyone was a little unaccustomed to the absence of An An, so they ate dinner in a hurry.

When we saw each other the next day, the four adults would still be thinking about An An, but the two brothers had already regained their vitality. They were singing loudly in the garden early in the morning. From a distance, Li Baolu could hear the two brothers shouting, "I don't have clothes, I'm in the same robe with my son..."

"How did you sing this song?"

Gu Jingyun served her a bowl of porridge calmly, and while motioning her to sit down for breakfast, he said, "There are more pirates along the southwestern coast. A military report came back to Beijing the day before yesterday, saying that a bandit leader organized nearly a thousand pirates to attack Guanghaiwei. The prestige of our country also gives a guarantee of safety to the people living along the coast and the maritime merchants who come and go."

"But there are also some people who object that the Great Chu has not engaged in war for a long time, and a war will mean a large amount of consumption of military pay, food, grass, etc., as well as the loss of personnel. They think that the pirates are just a burst, and there is no support behind them, so they are nothing to be afraid of. It is not worthwhile to fight for double the benefits at ten times the cost, so the court is still arguing." Gu Jingyun couldn't help laughing when he said this. According to the news, the children in the academy are also divided into two factions, and the two in our family are the main combat faction."

Otherwise, I wouldn't have sung "No Clothes" early in the morning.

Li Baolu frowned, covered her chest and said, "But I always feel a little uneasy."

Gu Jingyun smiled indifferently and said: "Let them make trouble, students still have this degree of freedom in the academy, and with us here, they won't cause any disasters that we can't handle."

Li Baolu frowned and nodded, and went to the academy after breakfast, while the two brothers had already led the horses and waited at the door, and immediately tied two bundles, one containing books and the other containing their food.

Gu Jingyun glanced at them and got into the car, while Li Baolu stopped and asked, "How do you ride a horse today?"

"We won't be coming back at noon, we're going out for a meeting."

No wonder she ordered the kitchen to prepare so much delicious food. Li Baolu took it for granted. The students in the academy liked to hold gatherings to collect opinions whenever any important event happened. She also liked their free atmosphere, so she never interfered with the children's affairs.

Li Baolu also got into the carriage and sat next to Gu Jingyun. When the carriage started, the two brothers looked at each other and followed, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

In the evening, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu returned home first, and they didn't care when they saw that their two sons hadn't come back. They thought they had gone somewhere to play again, but when the sun went down, they were nowhere to be seen after dinner. Li Baolu felt that something was wrong, and her heart became more and more uneasy.

Gu Jingyun also frowned, and called Nan Feng, "Go to the porter and ask, did the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Master send someone back today to deliver a message."

"yes."

Li Baolu's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately said: "Heart, go find Dongfeng and ask him to go to the Wei Mansion as soon as possible to see if Wei Xiang is at home. If he is at home, ask them if they have a meeting today, and ask where he went."

Hearts were taken aback for a moment, and quickly responded.

Gu Jingyun frowned, "You suspect two..."

Li Baolu got up and said, "Let's go to their room and have a look."

The two children moved out of Wutong Garden when they were seven years old, and lived in another yard not far away.

Li Baolu turned to go to Lele's room, and Gu Jingyun went to Pingping's room. The two children's rooms were arranged by themselves, but they were similar in appearance. The couple went to the place where they hid money, and found nothing.

Li Baolu was slightly taken aback, then turned around to look through the box in their bedside table, which contained the gifts they received, some beautiful gold and silver nudes, jade, seals and other things.

They are all greeting gifts given by the guests when they meet the guests. They are not expensive, and they are not close elders. Most of them are rewarded by themselves after playing. But the two children in their family are stingy, and they rarely reward people with these things. Most of them save a certain amount and sell them to pawnshops. They can also help others with the money.

But now the box is also empty. She remembered that she had seen it when she cleaned up the room for the two children two days ago. There was only half of the box, and it was not time to empty it.

Li Baolu looked at the closet, opened it and found that there was not a single piece of clothing missing, she frowned and thought about it, then reached out to touch the bottom of the closet.

Master likes to give weapons to the children, and she remembers that the two children's daggers were hidden here before.

Li Baolu's face turned completely dark after touching an empty space, and she was 80% sure in her heart that the two children had escaped.

Gu Jingyun came to look for Li Baolu, but his face was as black as pot, "The ordinary money, gifts and weapons are all gone, and what is missing is a piece of Yan Daru's calligraphy that was taken from me a few days ago."

Yan Daru's calligraphy is as famous as Gu Jingyun's paintings, both of which are hard to find. Even if you can't get a thousand gold when you sell it, you can get a hundred gold.

No matter how poor the two children are, having that word is enough for them to drift with the wind and waves outside for many years.

Li Baolu couldn't help but support her forehead, "Are they going to chase An An? But An An has been gone for a day, can they still catch up?"

Gu Jingyun said thoughtfully: "An An's itinerary is made by myself. I remember that during that time, Pingping and Lele often stayed by her side to give her advice..."

The couple looked at each other, so they must know An An's itinerary, and they can even guess where An An settled down, so it will be much easier to chase her.

The two of them immediately went to An An's room. There might still be traces of drafts and maps left in her small study.

But I didn't expect that An An's small study room was very clean. Seeing that the faces of the master and wife were blue, Qing Ling shrank her neck and said, "Early this morning, the young master and the second young master came around and said that they needed some materials for their studies. Seeing that the young lady's study room was messy, I helped clean it up..."

Li Baolu gritted her teeth, "These two brats!"

Gu Jingyun had already turned around and said, "Have someone chase him to the southwest. If you can't catch him, wait in Zhaoqing. If you want to go to Guanghaiwei, you must pass through Zhaoqing."

Li Baolu felt her heart couldn't take it anymore, "What are they going to Guanghaiwei for? Kill pirates?"

Gu Jingyun remained silent.

Sitting on a chair, Li Baolu murmured, "They're only eleven years old, and they only have three-legged cat skills..."

It is true that Pingping and Lele have practiced martial arts since they were young, but they have so much to learn, and they only spend an hour practicing martial arts every day. Even if Ling Tianmen's martial arts are top-notch, their kung fu is not very good today.

The two combined are not as powerful as their sister, so it's fine if you run out like this and don't run into people from the Jianghu, once you do meet...

Li Baolu could only pray that they would learn how to escape, and if they couldn't beat them, they would run away quickly.

Gu Jingyun spread out the map, delineated three directions with Li Baolu, and then asked the guards to divide into three groups to chase, and they must find the person.

After the two had finished explaining, Hongtao rushed in anxiously and said, "Master, madam, uncle and uncle are angry, they said it's almost past dinner time, why is no one missing?"

"I forgot," Gu Jingyun straightened up, frowned and said, "Uncle and aunt are getting old, so we have to keep this matter from them."

"Let's just say that the two children ran out privately to meet the autumn hunt."

Gu Jingyun nodded slightly.

If the couple wanted to join forces to deceive people, no one would really be able to recognize them. At least Qin Xinfang and He Zipei didn't notice it. Seeing that their faces were a little dark, they knew that the two children had made them angry.

After knowing that Pingping and Lele didn't go home, but ran out to meet with their classmates for Qiu Lie, Qin Xinfang couldn't help coughing lightly: "Boys, they are very active. There is nothing wrong with Qiu Lie. Both civil and military are important. Anyway, they are all studying."

He Zipei also interceded for them, "An'an went to study abroad, they are already distracted, if we don't let them find something to do, staying at home is torturing us, let them go, and give them more guards."

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were quite speechless. They both felt that their lives were a bit gloomy with the momentum of doting on children.

At this time, Pingping and Lele ran four hundred miles away from the capital. At this time, they stopped to let the horses graze and rest, and took dry food from their bags to eat.

With the flames on, Ping Ping clicked a spot and said, "If we don't take a break, we will be able to catch up with my sister if we go a hundred miles forward."

They participated in An'an's itinerary. There is a red maple forest five hundred miles away from the capital. It is said that in autumn, the leaves are falling, and the red leaves are all over the ground. When people walk in the forest and encounter the breeze, the maple leaves will flutter down. It is very beautiful.

Many literati love to go to the woods in autumn, because An An's trip this time is not only to study, but also to find a good son-in-law, so it is natural to go to this kind of place.

Most importantly, I heard that there is a farm near Fenglin, and the jerky they make is very delicious. Thanks to Uncle Wei, they were lucky enough to eat two slices. It was really, really delicious.

The three siblings agree that Fenglin is a place worth going to. With the character of the elder sister, she will not leave unless she wraps up the dried rabbit meat. According to Mr. Wei, the farmhouse also has a personality. It only sells 50 catties a day.

Based on my sister's familiarity, she must have arrived at Fenglin at noon today. The jerky rabbit meat had already been sold out by then, so if she wanted to eat it, she would have to wait until tomorrow morning.

The two of them felt that they arrived at Fenglin late at night just in time to meet up with their sister, and if it was early, they might be able to catch up on sleep.

The two gnawed on the dry food, and secretly swore: When they arrive in Fenglin, they will eat five catties of dried rabbit meat!
