When Shen Minghuang and the others arrived at the place where Wei Yangyang was stopped, they only saw that the scene was covered with mud and blood, and they were lying on the ground wailing. The sergeant reported that the girl had been ambushed, fell off her horse, and rolled into the embankment. Shen Minghuang hurriedly ordered people to search for the bank of the river embankment, because it was completely dark, and it was difficult to see the situation in the river, so they searched all night without success. When it was almost dawn, Sheng Huaiyan persuaded him: "Today I will send the princess to Huadu, Your Highness might as well go back to Gong County first, and at the end there will be reliable people here to continue the search." Diplomatic relations are a major event, and Shen Minghuang can only agree: "Okay, you must remember that this involves the Wei family, and it must be kept secret, and you must not be known by Wei Bingjian." When the day dawned, they sent people down to the river, and searched carefully upstream and downstream. After he got on the horse, he was still a little uneasy, and commanded: "If you find her, don't hurt her, and send her back to the palace for treatment as soon as possible." Sheng Huaiyan responded one by one, and then he rode away.

But what made Shen Minghuang strange was that in the next four months, Wei Yangyang's whole person seemed to disappear, and no matter what method he used to find her, there was no news. There was no trace of her in the river, and the people he sent to Wei Bingge and Wei Bingjian to secretly inquire reported that she was not with her two brothers, and there was no trace of her going in and out of Guiyuan or asking for a doctor. How is this possible? Even if Wei Yangyang drowned, but the Wei family lost their only daughter, and they haven't seen anyone for so long, don't they go out to look for it? Why did the two brothers of the Wei family react as if they didn't have this sister? But Shen Minghuang couldn't go directly to someone's house and ask: "Your sister is lost, why aren't you in a hurry?"

And the people who went to the Qinghe Palace's Mansion also reported that since the third day of the third month of March, every five and ten, the Qinghe King has never sent a carriage to Guiyuan, as if he also knew that Wei Yangyang did not live in Guiyuan. Shen Minghuang could be sure that Shen Mingyuan had not sent anyone out to look for him, and when he met him in the palace, he didn't even mention it. Could it be that the people of the Wei family rescued Wei Yangyang and then notified Shen Mingyuan? He asked the person who was going to keep an eye on Shen Mingyuan, "Has King Qinghe made any changes recently?" The subordinate replied: "There is no change, he will go back to the palace after going to court as usual." Occasionally, he goes out to have fun, but he usually goes to the places he usually goes. "This is strange, could it be that a big living person disappeared out of thin air? He knew that Song Wenru had been having a good time with Wei Yangyang recently, and the two of them often attended the parties organized by the nobles of the flower capital together. He wanted to ask Song Wenru to help him go to Guiyuan to ask, but he didn't expect her to be sick, and he heard Song Wenzhuo say that she was quite sick.

In the entire flower capital, no one mentioned Wei Yangyang again, as if this girl had never moved here. For four months, Shen Minghuang felt that he was about to go crazy, whether he was alive or dead, he always had to know her news in order to come up with a countermeasure to deal with the Wei family. Every day when he first went to the court, he sent people around to investigate, but there was no news at all. The Tyrannical Mission was temporarily placed in the Royal Post House, and Wei Yangyang was seriously injured and his whereabouts are unknown, so Jiaoqi Beihai did not continue to investigate.

In the blink of an eye, it was the seventh day of the seventh month of July. Only today in the imperial court will open the Mingyue Tower, allowing the nobles of Huadu to climb to the fourth floor to play and have fun. Traditionally, men are not allowed to enter the building as it is a women's holiday. But Shen Minghuang is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and he arranges the juggling, opera, and food in the building today, so he can naturally come and go freely. When he walked into the door of the first floor of Mingyue Tower, he only heard laughter and laughter everywhere upstairs and downstairs. Every girl dressed up to attend, some watched the show, some caught up with friends, some met new friends, and a few little sisters played games together. As he walked, he checked the readiness of the various departments. Because today is Daughter's Day, the girls are not afraid of him, and they don't have a sense of crampedness to see him on weekdays. There is a bold noblewoman who dares to take the initiative to say a few words to him.

As soon as he walked up to the fourth floor, his maid Shan Ke ran up to catch up with him out of breath: "Your Highness, Miss Wei is here." Shen Minghuang's heart moved, in this flower capital, there is more than one official surnamed "Wei", but there is only one "Miss Wei" who is worthy of Shanke's special trip back and forth, he hurriedly asked: "Where is she?" Shanke replied: "I just entered the door, and now I'm going up the stairs." Hearing this, Shen Minghuang hurriedly rushed downstairs, searched layer by layer, and finally intercepted Wei Yangyang at the staircase on the second floor. After four months of not seeing her, her face was a little pale, and she had lost a lot of weight, obviously not lightly injured; But she is in good spirits, and she can see that she has dressed up carefully today, with a triangular plum made of strings of velvet thread on her head, and a purple dress with a very light color, which makes people flutter like fairies, and she doesn't have the appearance of a heroic little Mulan on weekdays.

Shen Minghuang always felt that something was wrong with her today, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. But in any case, the most important thing now is to explain the previous misunderstanding. But he didn't expect that this time it was Wei Yangyang who opened her mouth first, and she saluted standardly: "I've seen Your Highness." With that, she prepared to bypass Shen Minghuang and walk up to the lobby on the second floor. Shen Minghuang hurriedly took a step to the right, stopped in front of her, and forcibly intercepted her: "Luyang, you come with me." But the other party obviously didn't want to leave with him, so he just asked softly: "Your Highness, is there anything wrong with summoning the courtiers?" "Today is a women's party, and the emperor has authorized girls to play freely in the building, regardless of etiquette and rules. There is nothing wrong with Wei Yangyang's reluctance to go with him.

Shen Minghuang knew that she liked to watch the excitement the most, so she thought of a reason that was difficult for her to refuse: "You are late, there is no good place on the fourth floor." Come with me, and I'll make sure to sit at the front so you can see better. ”

Today, there are the most famous servants in the building of Huadu to perform in turn, Huadu Bangzi, magic, acrobatics, it is simply lively. But in the face of this once-a-year bustle, Wei Yangyang actually shook his head: "The courtiers don't want to sit at the front, and the courtiers don't come to see the excitement today." Shen Minghuang was very strange: "Then what are you doing here?" Wei Yangyang smiled lightly: "The courtiers are here, wait for someone." ”

Shen Minghuang looked at her and finally thought of how different she was. On weekdays, she laughs very heartily, and she doesn't understand that everyone's ladies should smile without missing teeth. But now her smile is three points gentle, which is a very standard smile of a noble lady in Huadu. Today, her smile, her demeanor and tone, and her outfit are all what a daughter of a general soldier should look like, even if she calls Song Wenzhuo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, she can't find the slightest mistake with her.

But the flawless person in front of him and the Wei Yangyang he knew in Gusu Mansion had no resemblance except for the same appearance. The huge changes that had taken place in her made Shen Minghuang a little caught off guard, and he didn't even know how to mention the incident on the outskirts of Gong County to her. He repeated in his heart what she had just said: "Wait for someone", I am in charge of all the activities of Mingyue Tower today, and she must have come here to wait for me. Thinking of this, he instructed Shan Ke: "Go and give Miss Wei the window seat on the second floor, and prepare some refreshments." Wei Yangyang thanked him, and the two of them walked to the window together, and there were people outside, all of whom were women traveling together, which was very lively.

After sitting down, Shen Minghuang first expressed concern: "Is your injury better?" Do you want me to find Imperial Doctor Jiang to check your pulse again? Where do you live? I sent someone to bring some supplements. Wei Yangyang shook his head lightly: "Your Highness, don't bother, the courtiers are fine, thank you." Her words were polite and rusty, and Shen Minghuang knew that she was still angry: "I misunderstood that day, and it wasn't you who took the initiative to provoke the princess." But it's a matter of the national body, so I can only catch you first, and I don't mean to hurt you. As soon as he said this, Wei Yangyang's performance was completely different from that day on the third day of the third month of March, and she didn't look angry at all: "Well, I understand." It was the impulse of the courtiers, and His Highness taught him. If it weren't for the fact that she was exactly the same as Wei Yangyang, Shen Minghuang would even suspect that he had encountered an impostor. Wei Yangyang, whom he knew, would never be like this, after suffering such a big loss, she should go to the post house where the mission lived and fight with Jiaoqi Beihai; Or run to the Fengquan Mansion to throw two dragons, even if she blows up the palace with a red-clothed cannon, she will not be surprised. But the Wei Yangyang who appeared in front of him now was really shocking to him.

The other party's answer was perfect, and he couldn't ask for any effective information, so he had to point to the snacks on the plate to please her: "You eat, these are the Gusu snacks you like to eat." When it comes to Gusu, Wei Yangyang seems to think of the days when they exterminated pirates together in Gusu three years ago. She didn't say anything for a long time, looked at the snacks, looked out the window again, and suddenly said something inexplicable: "The courtiers should go." I'm sorry that I didn't have time to eat the things that His Highness sent. Shen Minghuang didn't know why she was leaving, and followed her gaze to look out the window, only to see Shen Mingyuan standing downstairs, holding a huge kite, waving to her. She first smiled at Shen Mingyuan downstairs, and then turned back to Shen Minghuang and saluted: "Your Highness, take your leave." With that, he prepared to go out.

Shen Minghuang saw that the smile she had just smiled at Shen Mingyuan was full of happiness and heartfelt feeling, which was completely different from the proper and polite smile when facing herself. For some reason, he suddenly felt very panicked in his heart, Wei Yangyang didn't know where he lived, and he didn't know what had happened to her in the past few months. She rarely appears today, and if she doesn't seize this opportunity, she won't know that the next time it will be the Year of the Monkey. He didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly stood up and blocked her way: "It's windy today, you're injured, don't go out to fly a kite." He said as he went to pull her left arm, wanting to take her out of here, no matter where she was taken, in short, not to let her meet with Shen Mingyuan.

Wei Yangyang saw that he was strong, and desperately resisted and wanted to pull his left arm back. The two tugged at her wounds, and her face twitched in pain. Shen Minghuang looked at the painful look on her face, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" He hurriedly turned his head to Shan Ke and ordered, "Go and call Doctor Jiang." "For fear that the female dependents would have any sudden illness, Jiang Tiantian was on duty on the first floor all day today. She listened to Shen Minghuang's call, so she went up to the second floor, asked the palace maids to help Wei Yang sit down, and began to check her pulse. Jiang Tiantian finished cutting the pulse and observed her face again: "Is Miss Wei seriously injured?" Wei Yangyang was indeed seriously injured at the time, but injuries were commonplace for her, she didn't care, and even said it lightly: "I hurt my lungs and broke my legs." Jiang Tiantian asked: "What kind of medicine did the medical officer who treated the wounds prescribe?" Wei Yangyang took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to her. She took the small bottle and carefully discerned it before concluding: "It's all lung-nourishing and can be eaten." After that, she asked the palace maid to pour water, watched Wei Yangyang take the pill, and told the other party: "Xiaguan will prescribe some more medicine, and send someone to Guiyuan back." Miss Wei had better stop practicing martial arts recently and rest at home. Wei Yangyang thanked her.

They checked the pulse upstairs, and Shen Mingyuan waited downstairs for a long time without seeing anyone, and he didn't know what was wrong, so he went straight in. Although everyone acquiesced to the fact that men were not allowed to enter Mingyue Tower today, he was a prince, who would dare to stop him? He trotted all the way up to the second floor, saw Jiang Tiantian there, and knew that Wei Yangyang must have fallen ill again, and regardless of Shen Minghuang beside him, he hurriedly asked, "How is Miss Wei now?" Jiang Tiantian saluted him: "Your Highness, Miss Wei is an old injury that has not healed and needs to rest." It may not be the right time to come to this lively party. Shen Minghuang was about to say, "I'll send someone to send you back." Wei Yangyang opened his mouth first: "Thank you, Medical Officer Jiang, I didn't come to the party. ”

Then she began to look Shen Mingyuan up and down: "I want to fly a kite, what about the kite that His Highness just brought?" Shen Mingyuan hurriedly took the kite from Ling Quan's hand and showed it to her: "Look, I promised you the beauty kite, how did I draw it?" Wei Yangyang looked at the kite carefully, and was a little strange: "Why does this beauty have clothes, hands and feet, but no facial features?" This is another small idea of Shen Mingyuan: "What the beauty in everyone's heart looks like is different. If you draw it, it's no fun. I only drew the face, not the facial features, you can think for yourself. Wei Yangyang obviously liked this beautiful kite, she endured the pain and stood up: "Interesting, then let's go." ”

The two of them looked at each other, only caring about their own conversations, and did not pay attention to Shen Minghuang and the others at all. Shen Mingyuan proudly showed Wei Yangyang his newly made kite, and Wei Yangyang's face was a little happy and a little spoiled. Obviously, no matter what strange things Shen Mingyuan gave her, she would like it. The two of them are not only familiar, but can be said to be affectionate! At this moment, there was only one voice in Shen Minghuang's heart: the two of them must have been in contact before! Could it be that Wei Yangyang lives in Qinghe Palace? Their relationship is so close, where are the two sides going?

He pretended to be calm and opened his mouth to interrupt the conversation between the two of them: "Ming Yuan, Yang Yang is injured. You see she's so pale, don't go out today. Shen Mingyuan obviously also saw Wei Yangyang's face, he hesitated for a moment, and had to agree: "Okay, anyway, the kite is ready, let's fly it another day." But Wei Yangyang didn't seem to hear Shen Minghuang's proposal, she just looked at the beautiful kite, and her tone even carried a little coquettishness: "Your Highness, but I really want to go today, I haven't flown a kite for a long time." Shen Mingyuan didn't want to disappoint her, and quickly thought of a way to get the best of both worlds: "It's better than this." I'll show you while you sit, okay? Hearing that he was willing to take him, Wei Yangyang was very happy.

Then the two of them saluted Shen Minghuang together and walked downstairs side by side. Behind the Mingyue Tower, there is a royal garden, and the two of them must have gone there to fly kites. Shen Minghuang went up to the fourth floor, and sure enough, he saw the two of them staying in the garden, Wei Yangyang was sitting under the tree drinking tea to escape the heat, and Shen Mingyuan ran up and let the kite fly into the sky. Then he asked a small inner supervisor to pull the line, and then sat down to watch with Wei Yangyang. The two of them talked and laughed, obviously, flying a kite was more attractive to Wei Yangyang than the banquet in Mingyue Tower. At this moment, Shen Minghuang's heart was full of doubts, what happened to Wei Yangyang?
