The days flew by, and the New Year of Tianbao's eighth year has arrived in a blink of an eye. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, after Wang Yuan gathered all his wives and concubines to worship his ancestors, he sat and talked with fruit and tea in the hall. After a busy morning, I didn't seem to see Gongsun Lan.

"What about cousin? Why haven't you seen anyone since the morning? Under the New Year's Day, the family is reunited, how can there be no cousin? Wang Yuan said.

Li Xin'er said with a smile: "I must have gotten up in the morning to practice." ”

Wang Yuan waved his hand and said, "How long has it been, and you are still practicing?" What are the exercises on the first day of the Lunar New Year? Let's go and have tea together. ”

A maidservant girl hurriedly went to the courtyard of Gongsun Lan, the head of the back house, to invite Gongsun Lan, but after a while, she came back with a puzzled face, and reported: "Strange, Gongsun girl is not in the room, there is no one in the yard, the house is deserted, and even the lantern has not been hung." ”

Wang Yuan was stunned, and hurriedly got up and went to Gongsun Lan's house to check in person, and when he entered Gongsun Lan's house, it was really deserted. The tabernacle hung low, the quilts were neatly folded, and even the brazier in the house was cold. A hint of foreboding suddenly flashed in Wang Yuan's heart.

Li Xin'er and A Luo also followed, and they were surprised to see the situation in the house. All had a premonition of what was going on.

"The quilt is cold, the brazier is also cold, and my cousin didn't sleep here last night, what the hell is going on?" Wang Yuan frowned.

"Erlang, don't worry, maybe Miss Gongsun is going out. It's not that you don't know, the Gongsun girl is used to going alone, and the maidservants are not allowed to serve in the yard, and if she goes out to do something, no one will know. Hasn't it always been like this? Seeing that Wang Yuan's face was not good, Ah Luo hurriedly relieved.

Wang Yuan shook his head slowly and said, "It's not like a temporary outing, her sword, her clothes, and his blue flower package are all gone." What's going on? Where the hell did my cousin go? On the first day of the Lunar New Year, if there is something going on, it is impossible for her not to say hello. ”

"Erlang, don't think about it. When you say that, I panic. Li Xin'er frowned.

Wang Yuan sighed, and was about to comfort Li Xin'er, when suddenly Ah Luo pointed to the dresser and said, "Is that a letter?" ”

Wang Yuan stepped forward quickly, and saw a letter lying on the dresser, and saw a few words on the envelope at a glance: Wang Yuan personally opened. Wang Yuan's heart sank suddenly, and his body suddenly cooled down.

The letter was indeed written by Gongsun Lan, and Gongsun Lan's hairpin flowers were neat and beautiful, and every stroke was very neat, just as calm as herself. There are only a few words on the letter, and it is her style that she usually doesn't like to talk about.

"Wang Yuan, I will travel far away today, and I will leave a book here, please do not send anyone to look for me. I am not ruthless, but I have to do it as a last resort. Say goodbye to Xin'er and you for me, and say that I will go to the world to see the world. You cherish it, don't worry about it anymore. If there is fate, there will naturally be a day to meet. Gongsun Lan left a book. ”

Wang Yuan looked at the letter blankly, and his heart was complicated and indescribable. Gongsun Lan is gone, she is really gone. He had joked many times before that he was going to leave him, and this time he hoped it was also a joke, but Wang Yuan knew that this time it might be true.

Li Xin'er took the letter from Wang Yuan's hand, read it quickly, and said with a pale face: "The master is really gone?" This...... What the hell is going on? Who in the house offended the master? Who the hell offended her? I'll ask, I'll ask. ”

Wang Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "Xin'er, who would offend my cousin, how could my cousin leave angrily because of the people in the house?" ”

"But why did she leave? Before leaving, you didn't say a word to us, and just left? Li Xin'er shouted.

Wang Yuan sighed secretly and said to Princess Aluo: "Aluo, help Twelve Niang to rest for a while, and I will stay here alone for a while." ”

Ah Luo agreed, and walked out with the pale Li Xin'er, Li Xin'er muttered to herself: "Master, why is this?" Did Xin'er offend you again? Why do you just leave? ”

After the two daughters left, Wang Yuan stood quietly in Gongsun Lan's room, the cold air in the room seemed to still carry the fragrance of Gongsun Lan's body, and there were still a few long hairs on the pillow on the bed. Wang Yuan frowned, his mood was low, he didn't know what had happened, which led to Gongsun Lan's sudden departure, and before that, there was no warning.

Could it be that he was busy with various affairs during this time, and the neglected Gongsun Lan couldn't make it? This is absolutely impossible, not to mention that she has never snubbed Gongsun Lan, so with Gongsun Lan's character, she would rather keep her distance in the mansion than be too close to herself. Every time Wang Yuan and Gongsun Lan made love, they chose to come here in the dead of night. After Wen Cun, Gongsun Lan never let Wang Yuan stay in his room until dawn, because that would let people know that the relationship between the two had broken through that layer.

And Gongsun Lan refused to arrange a maid to serve her, Li Xin'er said many times that Gongsun Lan did not agree, only Wang Yuan knew the reason. Gongsun Lan was afraid that her secret at night would be known to the servant girl who was waiting, so she spread it. In addition, Gongsun Lan also likes to live alone, so she has every grass and tree in her yard, and she makes beds and quilts by herself, and never bothers others. So most of the time, Gongsun Lan actually lived very quietly.

So why, Gongsun Lan suddenly chose to leave. Could it be that she is tired of this life, or that she has no love for herself, so she chooses to leave? After recalling it carefully, Wang Yuan denied this possibility. On the night of the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, when Wang Yuan got into Gongsun Lan's bed in the middle of the night, Gongsun Lan was extremely gentle and enjoyed this kind of fish and water very much. When Wang Yuan told her some of her ideas, Gongsun Lan also put forward a lot of suggestions and opinions. Everything looked like normal, without the slightest abnormality, but why did Gongsun Lan leave suddenly? What is the reason for the so-called unavoidable reason in the letter? Originally, I made an appointment to go to Wanli Bridge on the bank of Huanhua Creek to watch the snow and look for plums, why did I suddenly say goodbye?

Wang Yuan was puzzled, and he couldn't figure it out anyway. He sat in the deserted room, still holding a glimmer of hope in his heart, expecting that Gongsun Lan's figure would quietly walk in and be angry with himself. However, from morning to afternoon, except for a few wives and concubines who came to visit, there was the shadow of Gongsun Lan.

Wang Yuan finally accepted this fact, Gongsun Lan did leave, no matter what the reason, she finally left. Wang Yuan's heart seemed to have been poached away, and it hurt so much that he couldn't help himself. At this time, he really realized the importance of Gongsun Lan in his mind. It turned out that she occupied such a large area that her departure made Wang Yuan's whole person out of a state of dissociation, out of extreme frustration.

The New Year, which was originally lively, lost its joyful atmosphere because of the sudden departure of Gongsun Lan. Li Xin'er cried several times, and willfully wanted to go out to find it. But under the persuasion of everyone, I gave up this idea for the sake of the child in my belly. At this moment, it is the coldest season of the year, and when she thought of Gongsun Lan leaving home alone and leaving alone in the cold wind, Li Xin'er couldn't help crying.

Wang Yuan always felt that Gongsun Lan would not leave Chengdu, so he ordered people to look for him everywhere, but a month later, he searched through Chengdu Mansion and found the slightest clue about Gongsun Lan. Wang Yuan could only give up searching. The world is so big, if you want to find someone who deliberately avoids you, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and this person is still Gongsun Lan, even if she is in Chengdu, if she deliberately avoids herself, then no one can find him.

This month Wang Yuan had a very decadent and hard life, but soon Wang Yuan cheered up, because he had too many things to do, too many decisions for him to decide. He can't be decadent, and he doesn't have time to be decadent, because he doesn't have plenty of time. In order to meet the imminent chaos, he must let go of the troubles in his heart and devote himself to the affairs at hand. In his world, not only Gongsun Lan, but also Li Xin'er, A Luo, Qingyun'er, Ziyun'er, Lan Xinhui's mother and daughter. There are also Huang San, big and small sisters, and everyone around them. It is Wang Yuan's responsibility to protect them.

So Wang Yuan gave up looking for Gongsun Lan and began to devote himself to the army construction and government affairs of Jiannan Province and Longyou Province. It's just that whenever I think of Gongsun Lanlai, I still feel a faint pain in my heart. Why she chose to leave herself seems to be a mystery.
