The princess of Longxin Kingdom drowned, and the Tianqi court was shocked for a while.

Emperor Tianqi sent a large number of people to search the lake, but not even a shadow was seen. He was very frightened for a moment, fearing that Emperor Longxin would take the opportunity to stir up trouble, but the news spread to Longxin Kingdom, but he did not see any shadow.

The reaction made him feel relieved immediately.

Princess Longxin was missing, but not dead. Emperor Tianqi had no choice but to have people search everywhere again, hoping to find the princess back.

Outside the princess's house, in a carriage, Mu Lan Xibai opened the curtain and looked out.

"Master, we have been outside the mansion for a day, why don't we just go in? If the princess really just left, maybe she will tell us if we ask her directly," An Ye said.

Mu Lan Xibai waved her hand and said: "Since she has left, she will not tell us where she went. I just want to know that she is safe."

Although he was worried, he never showed it. Besides, Mingyi ran away privately this time without telling him why or where he went. This made him feel troubled.

At this time, I saw Lu E walking into the house from the outside, with a slight smile on his face. When he arrived at the door, he joked with the doorman and then went in.

Mu Lan Xibai smiled slightly and suddenly felt enlightened.

"That day you said Lu'e had visited my house?"

"That's right."

"Then it can be explained that Lu'e is the princess's confidant. If the confidant is so easy, do you think the princess is really dead?"

The dark night seemed to suddenly dawn on me.

"My lord, let's have a chat with Miss Lu'e then?"

After hearing this, Mu Lan Xibai frowned and shook his head: "Go back home. It's better not to know where she is at this time. Besides, she disappeared in such a short period of time, and the places she can hide are limited."

Outside the car, Du Yaoting was seen approaching from a distance. Seeing his dejected look, Mu Lan Xibai knew that Leng Mingyi could never be there. When he thought of Leng Mingyi's location, he felt a little depressed.

"Let's go!" he said coldly.

"yes!"

Du Yaoting couldn't eat well or sleep these days, and he was so worried that his white hair was almost growing out. He was the person assigned by the emperor to find the princess, but they almost searched the lake, but they couldn't find Leng Mingyi's shadow anywhere.

That day, when he walked to the door of the princess's mansion, he found a gorgeous carriage leaving quickly.

"Hey, why does that carriage look familiar?"

He arrived at the princess's house, looked for Lu'e, and asked again and again. He only found out that the princess had disappeared after entering the lake that day, and even the boatman was missing. And the wooden boat salvaged from the bottom of the lake had a big hole drilled in the bottom.

, which made him suspect that someone was deliberately plotting to kill the princess, but he couldn't find out for a while.

"I remembered that the princess asked me to give something to General Du before going to the lake." Lu'e said.

After a while, she held out a brocade box. Du Yaoting opened the box and found a silk handkerchief inside, with words written on it.

"Lv'e and I, the Pure White Golden Orchid, if anything happens to me, you must help me take care of Lv'e, Mingyi."

After Du Yaoting read the letter, his hands trembled and he hesitated for a long time: "Mingyi, is this...does someone really want to harm her? Why didn't she tell me? Alas -"

He glanced at Lu'e, who also saw the words written on the silk letter. She lowered her head involuntarily, her face flushed, and she fiddled with the handkerchief with both hands, too embarrassed to raise her head.

"That's all." Du Yaoting sighed, "Mingyi had a fight with my brother. Now her life or death is uncertain. I must take good care of her sisters. You are not safe alone in the princess's mansion. Pack your things and come with me to the general.

Stay here."

For a moment, Lu E was so happy that she didn't know what to do.

At this time, Leng Mingyi was staying in the Sixth Prince's Mansion as a servant. She had already received news that Lu E had followed Du Yaoting to the General's Mansion.

At this time, the crabapple flowers were in full bloom, and she sat in the yard, drinking tea in front of the camellias.

At the entrance of the courtyard, a young man in green clothes leaned against the wall, looked at her contented look, and said with a smile: "It seems that I have not a diligent young man in my palace, but a carefree old man."

Leng Mingyi glanced at him and said sarcastically: "Hey, a good person can't be famous without spending a hundred days. Now you're starting to dislike the guests?"

"How dare you, how dare you." Mulan laughed Zhuyue, "You won't tell Yaoting your news? His hair has turned gray due to worry. It would be better for you to write a final letter and leave the maid to his care. What are you doing?

What’s your intention?”

"Then your prince doesn't know how considerate I am of others. Lu'e likes Yaoting, so I asked him to take care of Lu'e, which is reasonable and reasonable. Besides, I want to avoid it now. If one less person knows about it, I will lose one point.

Danger, otherwise, if everyone knows it, wouldn’t it lose the meaning of avoiding it?”

"What about him?" Mu Lan joked Zhuyue, and inadvertently, she broke a twig under her hand.

Leng Mingyi felt a little annoyed. She would have felt much more comfortable if the prince had been more confused. Unfortunately, he was too shrewd.

The word "him" reminds her of many unpleasant things. When Lu'e went to look for him, why couldn't she find him? Now that she has been away for so long, he should be able to find her with his intelligence. Even if it is inconvenient to look for him openly.

, it’s okay to communicate in secret, but there is no news about him at all, doesn’t it make her very depressed?

She looked slightly annoyed, grabbed a handful of red dates on the small table and threw them towards Mu Lan: "After eating the red dates, the prince will not be so gossipy!"

When the red dates were thrown out, Mu Lan Zhuyue flicked her green sleeves and took all the red dates into her hands.

He ate a red date, and it was really crispy and sweet. He glanced at Leng Mingyi and couldn't help but smile: "Sure enough, people are soft-spoken. They think I have too many things to do, so I won't say anything. Look at the good tea you are drinking.

Give me a drink too."

Mu Lan came over and took a look. It was just ordinary scented tea, but the color of the water was particularly clear. After drinking a cup, he felt that the fragrance was refreshing.

"Strange, why does it smell like this?" He frowned and asked.

Leng Mingyi snickered and said, "What do you think?"

He turned around and saw that there seemed to be fresh soil under the big sycamore tree in the yard, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

"You, you, you!" He pointed at Leng Mingyi with his finger, "I invite you to be a guest, but you are a thief."

Leng Mingyi raised her head and laughed: "It's just as I expected. Under the tree, I bought the best flowers, dew, and a jar of last year's snow. In addition, I also found a jar of old daughter's red wine!"

"Where's the wine? You didn't drink it all, did you?" Mu Lan said unhappily.

"How can you? After all, you are the host and I am the guest. Do you really think I am a thief? Well, right here, the moon is shining tonight. When I cook the green plums and heat the wine, how about I invite you to come and enjoy the moon?"

Mulan Zhuyue was overjoyed and clapped her hands and said: "Okay! What an elegant thief!"
