Chapter 507 Sudden bad news

The group arrived at the old house of the clan.

Du Wan had just settled down, and before he could take a sip of tea, he heard that the old patriarch had come to see Du's consort.

The old patriarch came over and chatted with Prince Consort Du alone in the room for half an hour. Not long after, a servant came to report to Du Wan, saying that Prince Consort Du invited her to go to the study.

Du Wan passed over with doubts.

Seeing Prince Consort Du sitting in front of the desk with a solemn look on his face.

He was the only one in the study. Before he could say anything, Du Wan stepped in first and said, "Dad, you asked me to come over. What can I do?"

Du Consort concealed the pain in his eyes and spoke slowly, "Wanwan, your eldest brother is missing."

"What does missing mean?" Du Wan saw Du Huima's expression and was not very optimistic, "When did you disappear and how did you disappear?"

"During the earthquake, the tribe received the news the fastest. It has been four or five days since now. There was also an earthquake over there, which was more serious than what was seen here in the capital. A subsidence occurred in one county. In an instant, They are all in ruins, and your eldest brother was in that county back then." Du Fuma said, his eyes turning red.

Du Wan felt her head buzzing and going blank.

How can it be?

How could something happen? !

In the original work, Du Qian was in danger of death, but she thought he could avoid it.

Could it be said that it is really unavoidable? What should have happened, would have happened in another environment? Du Wan's mind was extremely confused. She was thinking about this and that, her hands were getting cold, and her eyes were misty before she knew it. "Did the clan leader come here just now to tell you about this?"

"Yes. As a father, I still can't believe it..." Du Fuma was slumped, and the sadness in his eyes could no longer be concealed, "I'll hide this from your mother for the time being."

Dad, I want to go to the north.

Yes, I will be with you as a father.

"No need. I'm faster on my own. You stay with my mother. Even if you hide it from her for the time being, you can't hide it for long. The news from the clan is only a day or two ahead of others."

Prince Consort Dus lips trembled, but he couldnt say what he wanted to say.

As for the situation in the north, the prince is missing, and no matter how late the news from the court lags, it will not lag for long. When the emperor received the news, there were more informants in the palace, including the eldest princess herself.

What Du Wan needs most right now is a map.

Of course she had to leave as soon as possible, but she was worried that she would get lost or go astray. Only by determining the route and location can you arrive in the fastest time. The next day after Du Qian's accident, the nearby clan learned about it, and the news itself was delayed by a day.

Everyone who was with Du Qian at that time disappeared together.

Du Wan felt heavy in her heart and felt extremely uncomfortable. "Father, prepare a map for me with a marked route. In addition, prepare dry food and water for two more days. The sooner the better."

Do you really want to go there alone? Du Consort confirmed.

Yeah. Du Wan said firmly.

Du Huima summoned the secret guards and asked them to prepare.

Speaking of maps, the Du family has a very complete map of Da Qin, which is more detailed than the one in the imperial palace, and is updated every three years. This small matter was ready in less than a quarter of an hour. Du Wan got a small leather map of the north, as well as a detailed route, and marked the characteristics of the road section to avoid newcomers taking the wrong path.

There are three routes in total, some are long and some are short.

After asking clearly, Du Wan put the map in his arms, put the bag with dry food on his back, and set off without stopping, "Dad, take care of yourself."

Wanwan should also take care of herself.

Du Prince Consort stood under the eaves, watching his daughter's figure disappear in an instant. His pupils suddenly shrank, and his clenched fists slowly relaxed after a long time.

Du Liu said, "Master, my little master is very strong."

"Yes, very strong." Du Fuma felt extremely uncomfortable, "That brat practices martial arts with my sister every day. I hope he can improve and escape this disaster."

With good fortune and good fortune, the little masters will be fine. I hope so

Du Prince Consort had tears in his eyes, and he just put them back.

A natural disaster, this is a natural disaster...can you escape it?

He never thought that his son, who had high hopes for him, would one day encounter something unexpected so early.

In fact, there was a natural disaster caused by the subsidence. The whole county was affected by the disaster. No one survived on the first day. People from the Du family nearby heard the news and rushed there, but no one was found. They were also confirmed missing. The chance of survival was extremely high. Slim. It may be said that there is a glimmer of hope in his heart, but more than 99% of it is despair and sorrow.

Let his daughter rush over in a hurry, which can be said to be Du Ma's reluctance. He wanted to see a person alive and a corpse after death.

Du Liu still wanted to comfort him, but in the end he said nothing.

The Pei familys village.

Zhenguogongfu.

When he received the urgent news from his confidants, the Duke of Zhen was shocked, "How could this happen? Quick! Go and call the crown prince over immediately."

As ordered. A secret guard left quickly.

Pei Hao was originally at Mrs. Pei's place, talking to Mrs. Pei.

Mrs. Pei is preparing to go to the clan to worship her ancestors tomorrow morning, and she also needs to prepare some etiquette.

Hu San strode to the main house and stopped outside.

This is the wife's place, and it is still difficult for outsiders to break in. They can only ask the nun who is guarding outside to report something important to the prince.

The nanny responded and went into the house to report.

After a while, Pei Hao stepped out and saw Hu San's serious look, "What's the matter? Are you in a hurry?"

Hu Sandao: "The Duke of Guo has received an urgent secret letter. Please go see him immediately."

"Can you tell me what happened?" Pei Hao asked as he walked out quickly.

Hu San hesitated and said, "The person who came to notify us is the secret guard."

Pei Hao frowned slightly, then relaxed his eyebrows.

This is an emergency, otherwise, the secret guards would not be used to find him.

Pei Hao didn't stop for a moment to see the Duke of Zhen. When he entered the house, he saw the Duke of Zhen pacing back and forth eagerly, completely losing his usual composure. "Son, please greet your father."

"Something happened." As soon as the Duke of Zhen heard his voice, he stepped back. "There was an earthquake in the north. Guangluo County was reduced to ruins. The most terrifying thing was the subsidence. More than 90% of the people in the county died. Among those who escaped, Prince Rui and his entourage were not among them."

At the end of the sentence, the Duke of Zhen's voice trembled slightly.

Pei Hao was extremely shocked when he suddenly heard the bad news.

Is it possible that characters like brother-in-law just disappeared? Just thinking about it is hard to accept. Pei Hao only felt a little floating, very uncertain, as if in a dream, "Father, is the news reliable?"

Well, its true.

Being the Duke of Zhenguo is not a good feeling for a while.

Du Qian's death was a big blow to the Princess Mansion.

Pei Hao suddenly wanted to walk outside.

The Duke of Zhen raised his hand and shouted, "Stop! Where are you going?"
