After making sure that Song Lingxi did not go out of the city, Chu Yiyun stayed awake for three consecutive days, looking for all the places where Song Lingxi could go, these days Chu Yiyun seemed to be ten years old, but he didn't even see Song Lingxi's shadow, and Yang Yongdu was a little unbearable.

"Lord, you better go back and rest first, if you continue like this, I'm afraid that the princess will be exhausted before she finds your body."

"You go back and tell Han Peng first to ask the guards to change into civilian clothes and look for the princess's portrait from house to house, and I'll take a look around."

Because of the special identities of Song Zhiyuan and Chu Yixing, the family that Han Peng found for him to recuperate from his injuries was the most remote family in a quiet mountain village, and there was only one blind mother-in-law and little grandson in this family, and the house was naturally very simple, Song Zhiyuan looked at Chu Yixing with a very surprised eye after opening his eyes, he never thought that it was Chu Yixing who was guarding his bed at this time: "Princess......."

Chu Yixing, who was really dozing, saw that Song Zhiyuan woke up and instantly showed a smile like a flower on his face: "You woke up, how do you feel and does it hurt?" ”

Song Zhiyuan sat up slowly: "Thank you princess for worrying, I'm almost fine, where is this?" ”

"It's a small village not far from Black Bear Ridge"

"What about your brother?"

"They have returned to the imperial capital, don't worry, your father has fled to Saiwai, the third brother said that he will take good care of the third sister-in-law, so you don't have to worry"

"So the princess is here to take care of me these days?"

Chu Yixing held back his mouth and looked at Song Zhiyuan pitifully: "I'm not a princess anymore, just a homeless homeless girl."

Song Zhiyuan gently shook her hands: "As long as you have me, you won't wander"

After listening to Song Zhiyuan's words, Chu Yixing pursed his lips and smiled, but the tears in his eyes fell.

The method of knocking on doors to find people is a bit stupid, but I have to say that this is a very effective method, but unfortunately, many times it often backfires, so I didn't get the answer Chu Yiyun wanted by looking for it door to door.

In a blink of an eye, it soon came to Chinese New Year's Eve, but Chu Yiyun was still bent on looking for various celebrations in the Song Lingxi Palace, and he refused to participate because he was unwell.

In order to make a few good dishes on Chinese New Year's Eve, Peony, who had not been on the street for a long time, finally walked out of the broken temple with a vegetable basket and came to the street to buy vegetables, and when she was ready to go home happily after buying vegetables, she accidentally found a wanted notice for Song Yi in the notice board, Peony knew what Song Lingxi was thinking about Song Yi's safety, which was undoubtedly a good medicine for the sick Song Lingxi, so she hurriedly walked back to tell Song Lingxi the good news, but unfortunately she didn't go far before she met someone with a portrait of her and Song Lingxi asking around for their news.

Back to the broken temple where they lived Peony made three dishes to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve, steamed fish, crispy pork ribs, and a plate of stir-fried cabbage that they ate the most these days, Song Lingxi slowly sat down: "Peony, why are you cooking meat again, I didn't say that you are not allowed to cook meat in the temple, this is disrespectful to the Bodhisattva"

"Miss, don't worry, I did it outside the back door, and the place where we live is also far from the main hall, the firewood house Bodhisattva will not blame us, today is a good day, you must eat more"

"Good day?"

"You forgot that today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and when I was on the street today, I saw a notice saying that Hou Ye had fled to Saiwai and he was safe"

A smile appeared on Song Lingxi's pale face, and he asked eagerly, "Really?" And what about my brother? ”

"The notice didn't say where the eldest young master was, and besides, after the prince came back, that woman didn't dare to bully you anymore, when will we go back to the palace, Miss?"

"Let's eat first"

From the moment Song Lingxi left, she didn't plan to go back, Peony still stupidly thought that the hard days were over, and she was still secretly happy in her heart.

After the meal, Peony began to slowly clean up her things.

Song Lingxi could see Peony's intentions, but she really didn't plan to go back to the palace, firstly, because of her embarrassing identity, she didn't want to trouble Chu Yiyun and make him embarrassed in front of the emperor, it can be seen from her father's matter that Chu Yiyun really cares about her, she can accept that Chu Yiyun has a side concubine, but she still can't accept the fact that An Yuexiang is pregnant so soon, if she returns to the palace, she really doesn't know how to face An Yuexiang.

"Peony ......."

"What's wrong, Miss?"

"I don't want to go back to the palace yet, don't pack up your things yet"

"Why? Now that the prince is back, that woman won't dare to bully you anymore, and now that you're so sick, it's easy to recuperate when you return to the palace."

She ......... is already pregnant with the prince's child, and the queen has promised to let her be the concubine, if we go back to the prince, he will definitely not agree to let An Yuexiang be the concubine, the queen is the prince's biological mother after all, the prince loves me so much, I don't want her to be caught between me and the queen mother, but I wronged you and let you follow me to suffer"

"Where the young lady is, the peony is there, as long as there is a young lady in the peony, I don't feel bitter"

On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Happy Reunion at home, Chu Yiyun couldn't sleep, the imperial capital was so big, he didn't understand why he couldn't find Song Lingxi, which had to make him suspect that Song Lingxi was deliberately avoiding him from the beginning, how could she believe An Yuexiang's nonsense when they had been together for so long.

Looking at the letter left by Song Lingxi, he finally couldn't help but shed tears.

Comparison between the present and the past, things are people, empty a piece of tenderness, a note of lovesickness, endless, wisps of sorrow like flowing water, endless.

From Chinese New Year's Eve to the Lantern Festival, except for An Yuexiang, several people in the entire royal mansion are worried about finding the princess, the royal mansion compound does not even have a festive atmosphere, everyone is nervous like a tight string, always paying attention to Wang Ye's emotions, for fear that when he accidentally offends Wang Ye, he can't eat and walk, and Han Peng, who is about to collapse, Yang Yong finally can't stand it, and can only let Furong intercede, taking advantage of the Shangyuan Festival, he can give everyone a day off.

The two of them purely underestimated the relationship between Furong and Song Lingxi, from the moment Furong walked into Chu Yiyun's study with hot tea to the moment when she finally went out, he didn't say anything about the holiday: "Lord Wang, this is the ginseng tea that Yu Niang boiled for you, please drink it while it's hot, cheer up after drinking, and go to see the lanterns at night."

"Lanterns? Where do the lanterns come from? ”

"The prince has forgotten that today is the Shangyuan Festival in order to find his mother, and today the people of the whole city will enjoy the lanterns and guess the lantern riddles on the side of the Sansheng Bridge, so maybe she will go to the lively place, don't you go?"

"Yes, I almost forgot that we made an appointment to put concentric lights on the Shangyuan Festival, let's go"

"Lord Wang, it's still daytime, let's drink ginseng tea first, and I'll go get you some food"
