Ming Chongyan firmly believed that Li Chunfeng would definitely go to the palace to find Tang Ying after escaping from Xishan, just as Tang Ying also believed so. The days passed day by day in the ardent anticipation of the two.

Tang Ying's heart cooled down little by little, and Ming Chongyan's heart tightened little by little.

Li Chunfeng never returned to Xishan. The puppets searched every inch of the area but found no trace of him, and even Ming Chongyan suspected that he had drowned in the pool. However, after he slowly drained the spell protection left by Bai Zetu in the pool, the result of personally inspecting the bottom of the pool was nothing.

Li Chunfeng also did not appear on the streets of Chang'an. During the day, there are countless eyeliner guards, and at night, red-eyed crows and evil spirits help him keep an eye on every corner of Chang'an.

But Li Chunfeng never appeared again.

He just disappeared without a trace, as if he had evaporated out of thin air.

Tang Ying didn't believe that he would say goodbye like this, and went to the place where he used to work to inquire in person. Because his son is also in the same position in the Si Tianjian Prison, there is no reason not to know the way. But when she went to ask, she didn't find any trace of his son, but she heard from her colleagues that his son had resigned and returned home not long ago, and at the same time, he also handed in his resignation for Li Chunfeng, and he couldn't go to court at this age anyway.

She went to ask Wu Mei, but Wu Mei didn't have any news of him. Even the head of a country couldn't find his whereabouts, and she had no idea at all.

Is Li Chunfeng alive or dead? If she was alive, what would she not even have left a message for her to guess? How did he get rid of Ming Chongyan's control? Or has it been captured in secret? These questions first tormented her head every day, and as the days went by, these unsolvable speculations turned into a mess in her mind, just repeating a reality - Li Chunfeng left her.

How many midnight dreams back, her thoughts always stayed on the last side of the two of them. Her dear man, roaring in rage, threw the porcelain vase to the ground, shattering it. Although she knew that he was controlled by evil magic at that time, the angry look had been ingrained in her mind, and the domineering overbearing over any other gentle and kind countenance made it difficult for her to feel at ease.

Therefore, the errand of the imperial history cannot be done. She only does one thing with her face strained every day, and that is to look for Li Chunfeng's traces everywhere. At first, Wu Mei was also up to her. Later, she went farther and farther, often not returning for several days. Out of concern, Wu Mei asked Ming Chong to take care of her, and she was not allowed to leave Chang'an, nor was she allowed to stay overnight.

Ming Chongyan was so happy that he was inseparable from her. Without Li Chunfeng, it would be a matter of time before he conquered Tang Ying by himself. So the speech and demeanor are more intimate. And Tang Ying didn't want to be with this vicious person, and he didn't want him to find out that he had known his true face, so he could only suppress his anger and cover up all his emotions with sadness.

At the end of the second year of the general chapter (669 AD), a snowstorm swept through Chang'an, bringing not only the first year of Xianheng (670), but also the death of Li Chunfeng.

When Tang Ying heard the news, he was buying wine at their favorite restaurant. The shopkeeper who had always been smiling still remembered her, but this time he didn't greet her kindly, but comforted him with tears: "Girl, please mourn." It's a pity that in the future, you will only know the 'drunk Chang'an' of the shop. ”

The flask shattered on the ground. The shopkeeper wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and said, "Girl, please mourn." Lord Taishi is an immortal, he is not dead, but he has gone to heaven to report his work! We should be happy. ”

Tang Ying's eyes widened, and the bloodshot and gurgling tears frightened the shopkeeper to say more. She asked in a trembling voice, "Who...... Say he's dead? Who! ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly replied: "Half a month ago, the son of Lord Taishi returned to the city to report his death to the emperor. On the way back to his hometown, he specially came to Xiao Lao'er's store to buy a bottle of wine and take it back to pay respects...... Hey, girl, mourn! ”

Tang Ying didn't wait for him to finish, and ran towards Penglai Palace like a puff of smoke. Why didn't Wu Mei mention anything about such a big thing? She didn't believe it!

Cloaked and running to Wu Mei, she was almost captured by the guards as an assassin who wanted to assassinate the queen. Although Wu Mei was taken aback by her like this, she always loved Tang Ying the most, and she knew what was going on, so she retreated from her left and right, and pulled her to sit down with a pleasant face: "Silly child, come and rest." ”

Tang Ying looked at her with wide eyes, and before she could speak, tears flowed all over her face first. Wu Mei looked at her haggard appearance, thinking of Li Chunfeng's elegant or elegant figure in the past ten years, and couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, and said with a sad voice: "Ah Ying, you have to understand. It's a must-go for everyone. ”

Hearing this, Tang Ying couldn't hold back any longer, and cried out loud, "What are you not telling me for, what are you doing!" This sentence is like a question about Wu Mei, and at the same time it seems to be asking Li Chunfeng, who is far away. When Ming Chongyan heard Xin'er, he had just entered the hall, and when he saw her hoarseness, he no longer suspected that she had a secret connection with Li Chunfeng.

Wu Mei hugged her and stroked her back, saying, "When this news reached my ears, I couldn't believe it. But after all, it was his son who came to report the funeral in person, and there was no reason to deceive the king. The emperor remembered his hard work and achievements, and specially rewarded him with something to take back to his hometown in Qishan to prepare for the funeral. He didn't know about your relationship, so he didn't want to tell you. I saw that you have been emotional recently, and I was afraid that you would be difficult to accept for a while, so I didn't say anything. Alas...... Ah Ying, people can't be resurrected after death. Chunfeng has been cultivating for many years, and he can understand this truth best. I think he probably hid in the last years because he was afraid to see you sad, and if you continue to be sad, won't you live up to his kindness? ”

Tang Ying jumped up suddenly, shaking his head and saying, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it." He is Li Chunfeng, he will not die! She said and ran out like crazy.

"Wait! Where are you going?! Wu Mei then stood up and ran out.

Tang Ying turned around and hurriedly left a sentence, "I'm going to find him!" ”

Ming Chongyan stopped Wu Mei, quietly let Tang Ying run away, and whispered to Wu Mei: "Don't worry, I'll go and bring her back." Wu Mei grabbed his hand and said word by word: "Not only to bring it back, but also to bring it back unharmed." Otherwise, I'm the only one who asks! ”

Ming Chongyan was stunned for a moment, nodded and flashed out. He knew that Wu Mei loved Tang Ying very much, but he had never seen Wu Mei's eyes show such a value to anyone just now. He felt that he seemed to have underestimated the relationship between Wu Mei and Tang Ying. It doesn't matter, though. Li Chunfeng is dead, and he still has a long life. Sooner or later, these two people will become his playthings.

The top priority is to follow Tang Ying to Li Chunfeng's burial place to see. Is it dead, or is there another mystery?
