Chapter 62: The Old Man of the Empty Mountain—No Thoughts

On the morning of the second day, Ling'er opened her eyes and saw that the room was empty, and she thought for a while about the top of the tent before remembering that she was hunting in the wild. Suddenly there was no interest in lying in bed, and he lifted the quilt to dress and freshen up. Thinking about the stupid thing I did while I was drunk last night, I really shouldn't be too ostentatious, but it's too late to regret it. After the preparations were completed, the tent was opened and only a few guards were guarded, and I couldn't help asking, "What about the emperor and the princes?"

The guard replied: "Before dawn today, the emperor led the prince and everyone to go hunting in the mountains."

Ling'er was depressed for a while, looked around, and suddenly saw a red pony next to the stable, which was much smaller than the one she was riding. After running over in a few steps, the horse stables only thought that the princess was familiar with equestrianism, in fact, Ling'er's walking body and steps were not a lady from any point of view.

The pony was tame, and Ling'er grabbed it under his feet, and ran towards the hill with a stagger. I only felt that the cold wind was blowing on my face, and my stinging face was painful, but I felt that I had a bit of a sassy and heroic demeanor. But after running for a while, Ling'er couldn't help but panic in her heart, in the past, when she went to the horse farm with her father to ride a horse, she was led by a horse trainer, and she just knew how to ride. How to stop now, and where is the horse going, is really just thinking about it today, and I don't think about it well. If you meet a blind bear again, you will really die a miserable death, and I can't help but shudder when I think about it.

After being entangled for a while, Ling'er couldn't care about anything else at this time, and if he came, he would be safe. The weather was overcast, and the sky was full of thick, low, grayish-yellow cloudy clouds. The northeast wind whined and roared, running wildly across the wilderness, as if it held a sharp sword that could pierce tight clothing, not to mention the exposed skin, which was slashed again and again in pain.

The slow pony may be tired of running, and the pace gradually slows down, and Ling'er is as uncomfortable as if she has fallen apart from the bumpy. Taking advantage of the fact that he came to the edge of a jungle, he jumped off his horse, the snow was very thick, and Ling'er struggled a few times to get up from the grass covered with snow. Looking around, it was very quiet, and there was the occasional sound of snow falling from the trees. The maroon pony looked at Ling'er in a friendly manner, looking docile, Ling'er walked over and patted its head, and it also sniffed the master's hand with its nose. Ling'er said to herself: "Let's go, we have to rely on each other today."

After speaking, Ling'er took the reins of the horse, and the pony obediently followed behind, and one man and one horse walked forward. I don't know how long it has been since I came out, Ling'er only felt that her stomach began to growl, and she looked up at the sky, where could she see the sun. "It would be nice if I could find someone to ask for something to eat," Ling'er thought as she walked with her head down, and vaguely heard a voice in front of her. Ben was still exhausted, but suddenly he was full of strength again, and his feet quickened, trying to get closer to the place where the voice came, and he was afraid that he would be too late. After a while, Ling'er seemed to see a group of people in front of her, but this person was indescribably strange. Ling'er stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, and then tried to look, where was the strange person, it was obvious that she had forgotten where she came from, since that group of people were modern people dressed in twenty-first century clothes.

Ling'er's excited voice was stuck in his throat, but he couldn't scream, and he couldn't care about the thorns in front of him, and ran towards the crowd with all his might. But even though Ling'er felt that she had exerted all her strength, the crowd in front of her always kept a distance from her. Ling'er was in a hurry and shouted, "Wait for me", and someone in the crowd seemed to turn their heads to look behind, but still no one stopped. I couldn't help but panic in my heart, maybe I was running with too much physical energy, and I was caught off guard, only to feel that it was dark in front of my eyes, and Ling'er leaned forward in the center, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Baili Xin'er and Princess Tranquility came back from a walk outside, and each of them held a jasper long-necked beauty bottle in their hands, laughing and laughing as they walked, very happy. When I met Qingxi running over here, with an anxious look on my face, I didn't care about saluting when I saw the two of them coming, and asked anxiously: "I can see my young lady, she has been out for half a day, and I don't know where she went, but she is in a hurry to die as a slave."

Baili Xin'er was the most impatient, and asked, "My sister was sleeping in the tent when we left, do you know when she left the tent?"

Qingxi said with a crying voice: "I saw that the young lady was asleep and wanted to get her some food, it is not easy to make a fire in this field, it is to delay a little time, who knows that when she comes back, she has already gone out, and the guard said that the young lady rode out alone."

Princess Tranquility said: "So the imperial sister-in-law has been out for an hour, and in this wilderness, she is alone again, isn't she lost?"

The three girls were discussing how to find Ling'er, and the group of people and horses who went out hunting had already returned triumphantly. Qingxi didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly reported the fact that the princess had gone out and not returned. There weren't many people who came out this time, so they left a group of people to protect the emperor, and the rest scattered to find Princess Heng.

King Heng blamed himself in his heart, "I know her fun-loving nature, how can I leave her alone here, if there is a mistake", thinking of this, the horse whip was whipped down, and the white horse under the crotch galloped away with a long roar.

The rest of the people, including several princes, also searched carefully, King Rui was the most delicate, and he thought that Ling'er, a weak woman, must come here for the first time, and must follow the most convenient road. Therefore, instead of following the crowd towards the middle of nowhere, he rode his horse along a relatively flat snow track. After walking for a while, I found a red pony walking back slowly, if I guessed correctly, this must be the horse it was riding. King Rui was overjoyed in his heart, and continued to walk for a while, only to find Ling'er lying in the snow in the forest.

The weather was originally cold, and Ling'er was a weak boudoir, so it was extremely weak to touch her snort at this time. King Rui looked coldly at the lying person for a moment, and a trace of warmth suddenly appeared in his heart, this emotion was not like the previous moment of pity for other women, but he couldn't say why. Ling'er, who was lying in King Rui's arms, slowly became conscious, slowly opened his eyes, and was staring at King Rui when he met him.

Ling'er reacted suddenly, and with the last bit of strength, she suddenly stood up and walked out. King Rui only didn't want to see that he had saved her, and he didn't say anything else, just watched quietly from behind.

Ling'er woke up at this time, where did she have the strength, and she fell to the ground after taking a few steps. I couldn't help but feel sad and cried loudly: "Wait for me, please wait for me, take me out of here." The cry was terrible, and King Rao Shirui couldn't help but lose his color for a while, and almost wanted to come forward to ask, but he heard a messy footstep at the entrance of the cave, and dodged and hid.

The person who came here was King Heng, and when he entered the cave and saw Ling'er in such a shape, he was already heartbroken, and he hurriedly squatted down and hugged the person who was lying on the ground and crying.

At this time, Ling'er only had the strength to sob, and he was completely prostration, allowing King Heng to carry him on his horse and take him back to the camp.

Seeing that the young lady was brought back like this, Qingxi only wished that she had suffered this sin, so she hurriedly prepared hot water and a change of clothes to serve.

King Heng carried Ling'er to the bed, took the towels and clothes handed over by Qingxi, and carefully scrubbed the tears on his face, his expression as detailed as if he was facing a priceless treasure. Seeing this, Baili Xin'er took Qingxi's hand and came out, leaving King Heng alone to take care of Ling'er.

However, Ling'er didn't completely fall asleep at this time, she just didn't want to wake up, so she was so groggy by herself, only in this way did she feel that she still had the possibility of returning to her previous life to see her father, mother and sister. She was going to let her mind stay in the jungle, where there was hope of returning. She hated those who ignored her, they had already seen her, but why couldn't she wait. These scenes have been rummaging over and over in Ling'er's mind, and he seems to be unconscious but actually a little awake, but the person is just asleep and motionless.

Because Princess Heng was frightened and could no longer stay in the camp to hunt, King Heng escorted her back to the capital for treatment.

As soon as King Heng arrived in the mansion, he invited Li Zifu, the head of the Tai Hospital, to come over, and the Li Yuan was taking the pulse for a long time, and looked at his face, but his face was full of hesitation. Nuo'er, who looked straight to the side, was anxious, if it weren't for King Heng's presence, he really wanted to ask him what his illness was immediately.

When King Heng saw the expression of the imperial physician, he said, "Li Yuanzheng, please take a step to speak." Saying that the two of them arrived outside, Li Zifu pondered for a while and said: "The princess is not very sick, if she is sick, it is just infected with some wind and cold, but the princess is in good health, and this little illness is not harmful to her."

This was a surprise to King Heng, and he hesitated: "If this is the case, then why did the princess not wake up?"

Li Zifu said straightly: "If you want others to save people, you have to save yourself first, the princess just doesn't want to wake up, in other words, the princess herself doesn't want to live."

King Heng sat on the side of the bed for a long time and stared at the lying person, with curved eyebrows, small and upturned nose, and a pouting mouth that could say something that made her half dead and not half angry at her. It's just that such an eccentric person is just lying quietly now, and his pale face no longer has the vigor of the past.

After recalling every detail after coming into contact with Ling'er, King Heng really couldn't think of what caused him to lose hope of life, and he was distressed in every way. The door was slammed open from the outside, Mu Chenfeng broke in a few steps, and didn't speak, just stood in front of the bed and looked at Ling'er who was lying quietly, with a face as cold as ice.

After a while, Heng Wang Fang said: "I don't know why she has no hope in life, she has always been the kind person who gives people warmth and hope, how could she want to die and leave this world."

Mu Chenfeng originally came to seek justice for Ling'er, but after listening to King Heng's words, he saw that his face was not disguised. I couldn't bear to say: "Why did she go out alone that day, don't you know that she doesn't know martial arts and lacks the ability to survive in the wild?"

When King Heng heard Mu Chenfeng say this, he suddenly remembered that when he found Ling'er, she was crying bitterly, as if she was muttering something like "wait for me", and there was no one else at that time. Shouted outside the door, "Qingxi!"

Qingxi only thought that the prince had any orders, and hurriedly walked in, but saw King Heng's face full of solemnity, and asked, "Did the princess have any confidants and friends in the past?"

Qingxi looked at King Heng, and then turned his head to look at Mu Chenfeng who was standing aside, not knowing how to answer. King Heng said: "You only answer me truthfully, I also want to find the princess's worries, so as to help her sober up."

Qingxi listened to what King Heng said, so he stabilized his heart, shook his head and said: "Miss grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion freely, and the slave maid never left for a day, except for Young Master Mu and the prince and these people around him, there have never been many other friends."

Mu Chenfeng hesitated for a moment, and said, "I saw you and your young lady going out to play with outside the Prime Minister's Mansion that day, did she meet anyone when she went out?"

Qingxi thought about it and wanted to express something, but he couldn't say anything, so he said in a hurry: "If it's about people, there really is no other, but Miss also had a coma at the beginning, and she slept for three days, and when she woke up again, her temperament was very different from before, as if she was a different person."

Hearing Qingxi say this, King Heng and Mu Chenfeng glanced at each other, maybe in their hearts, they were as clear as the sleeping beauties in front of them, only Qingxi's words could be explained. Otherwise, how could Ji Qian's rotten old master raise a daughter with such a character. Although Bai Xiangye's daughter is also a talented and unearthly woman, Ling'er's personality is not half similar to Bai's, which is really strange.
