The sky was gradually dawning, and the warm light broke through the darkness and shone on the Jingling City, and countless soldiers gathered in front of the palace gate, guarding the palace gate that had become a ruin.

The city is still full of traffic and people. In the restaurant, in the teahouse, on the street, there are groups of three or five, all talking about last night's events.

"Yun Xiu is really powerful, he single-handedly broke into the palace of the Great Qin Empire, killed countless soldiers, defeated Chu Liufeng, and even Bai Wuchang of the Dragon Transformation Realm was defeated in his hands, such a young man is really ......," one person said.

"Yes, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, no one dares to go wild in front of the palace, but Yun Xiu is like no one, defeating several masters in a row, if it weren't for the mysterious person in the end, I'm afraid it would really make trouble in the palace......" another person said.

"Although it failed to make a big fuss about the palace, but the destruction of the palace gate seriously touched the dignity of the Great Qin Empire, even if there is no mysterious person to make a move, the Great Qin Empire will not give up, the depth of the Great Qin Empire is immeasurable, and with the power of Yun Xiu alone, it will definitely not be able to stir up the big storm. Another said.

"The Great Qin Empire has a profound heritage, and Yun Xiu dared to break into the palace alone, he really didn't know whether ......he was alive or dead," he said.

......

After one night, all kinds of rumors about Yun Xiu flew all over the sky, some praised and some depreciated, and even strange, but the dragon shadow that suddenly flew out was forgotten by the people, after all, the dragon is taboo, although there are doubts in the heart, who dares to speak?

And at that time, although there was a dragon chant, the dragon shadow was extremely fast, and in an instant, no one could see clearly, and no one would believe that there would be a real dragon, after all, the dragon was only a legendary existence.

Even if many people think that Yun Xiu's approach is just an act of self-indulgence, they are also impressed by Yun Xiu's combat power, and with the cultivation of the Mortal Realm, he first defeats Chu Liufeng, and then defeats the White Impermanence of the Dragon Realm, if he is not repelled by the mysterious person, he will definitely rise strongly.

"Hey, it's a pity, it's a pity that such a talented and intelligent person has gone astray, and his great future has disappeared, and his life and death are unknown. One said.

"If you have time to grow, you must be the overlord of one side, but you have embarked on a road of no return, and finally you have played ......yourself to death," another said.

......

The boy was born out of nowhere, which amazed the time, although after one night, the remarks about Yun Xiu breaking into the palace alone lasted for a long time, and it became a happy conversation after people's tea and dinner, and even after a few days, they can still hear the talk.

In the Chunjiang Building, although it was daytime, it was also full of guests, and all kinds of sounds were endless, but the resentful piano sound from yesterday no longer sounded, and Qin Wan'er was no longer seen.

Where Qin Wan'er went, no one knows, she disappeared from Chunjiang Tower last night, caught off guard, this news is not at all compared to last night Yun Xiu made a big fuss in the palace, countless people are speculating, searching, and Qin Wan'er has never been seen.

As the princess of the Great Qin Empire, Qin Wan'er has a noble status, and her words and deeds have attracted much attention, and now the news of Qin Wan'er's disappearance has spread directly, attracting the attention of countless people, and it has spread to the palace for the first time.

"No matter what, find Wan'er for me. In the palace of the Great Qin Empire, the emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, with a heavy anger in his eyes, and he opened his mouth to the trembling civil and military officials below.

First the palace gate was destroyed, and then the princess disappeared, what happened overnight was too ridiculous, for many years, who dared to make the Great Qin Empire so embarrassed, if you don't find out, I'm afraid it will be laughed at by the world.

And the most important point, there is news from the Great Chu Empire that it wants to marry the Great Qin Empire, and the object of the marriage is Qin Wan'er, and the greeting envoy will come in ten days, how can the princess disappear at this juncture.

For many years between the two countries, there have been many frictions on the border, but they are all petty fights, if you can't find the princess, the marriage will not work, and the Great Chu Empire will use this as an excuse to launch a war against the Great Qin Empire, and then it should be a situation of misery.

Although with the strength of the Great Qin Empire, he is not afraid of the Great Chu Empire, but the Great Chu Empire and the Great Yan Empire have always been friendly, and if the two empires join forces, the Great Qin Empire will never be able to resist it.

The situation of the three empires and the three kingdoms has existed for a long time, and for many years, although there has been no large-scale war, but, as the overlord above Kyushu, who has no ambitions, I am afraid that he has already been eyeing the tiger, not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, plus a series of events, the emperor felt a headache.

"What do you think about the marriage? The Emperor rubbed his forehead and spoke.

"Your Majesty, Princess Wan'er has reached the age of talking about marriage, the man should marry the woman, and the man is the prince of the Great Chu Empire, and he can make friends between the two empires, which should be a celebration for the whole country. The prime minister spoke.

"Hmm......" The emperor nodded and said, "Do you Aiqing have any other opinions?"

"Emperor Qiqi, the Great Chu Empire and the Great Yan Empire have always been good friends, and they have always been eyeing the Great Qin Empire, and now the Great Chu Empire has taken the initiative to make peace with my Great Qin Empire, which is to show goodwill to the Great Qin Empire, and the minister thinks that this is a good thing, which can promote peace and prosperity in the world. Another minister said.

"The ministers seconded the proposal...... the ministers said in unison.

"I'm against it. Qin Zheng said.

"Father, although marriage can make the two countries friendly, but will Wan'er Huangmei agree? Erchen believes that Wan'er Huangmei has the right to choose her own happiness. Qin Zheng continued.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as the princess of the Great Qin Empire, should take the lead, think about the interests of the Great Qin Empire, and sacrifice for the Great Qin Empire when necessary. The prime minister spoke.

"Such an empire, if you still need to sacrifice the happiness of the princess, such an empire is really a nest. Qin Zheng said, and it could be seen that Qin Zheng cherished Qin Wan'er very much.

"The two empires have long been eyeing our Great Qin Empire, if the marriage fails, they will definitely be annoyed and angry, and then they will be ruined, countless families will be ruined, homeless, and please think twice about His Royal Highness the Prince, please think twice about the emperor. The prime minister said again.

"Please think twice about the Prince, please think twice about the Emperor. A group of ministers seconded again.

"Father's ......"

"Enough, don't say any more, I agree to the marriage. As an imperial princess, you must always be ready to sacrifice for the empire. Qin Zheng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the emperor.

"Qin Zheng, order you to find the princess within five days and bring her back. The Emperor continued.

"The retainers obeyed. Qin Zheng opened his mouth and said, his face full of helplessness.

"Imperial sister, I'm sorry, the imperial brother did his best. Qin Zheng secretly said in his heart and left the court first.

Chunjiang Building, whether at night or during the day, always people come and go, the snow maple tree in front of the door is swaying, scattering bursts of flower rain, the flowering period has arrived, the petals are about to fall, only a few sporadic flowers.

A pair of couplets in front of the building are hung on both sides, magnificent, dragons flying and phoenixes dancing, this is the first time Yun Xiu and Fasheng monk came here, Fasheng monk wrote the next couplet, time has changed, in just half a month, everything has changed, the couplet is still there, Fasheng monk has disappeared, I don't know where he went, even Yun Xiu is life and death unknown.

"Imperial sister, where have you been?" Qin Zheng stood in front of the Chunjiang Tower, looking at the snow maple tree in front of the door that had grown young leaves, and thought to himself.

"I still remember, the royal sister likes the snow maple petals the most, she often says, life is like this falling petals, it seems to be flying but withering, it seems to be free but not free, now the petals are about to fall away, and the imperial sister has left, is she looking for freedom? But where did you go?" Qin Zheng muttered to himself, quietly looking at the petals that were still falling sporadically, and was silent for a long time.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we have been ordered to search every place in Jingling City, and there is no trace of Princess Wan'er. A soldier came to report.

"I know......" Qin Zheng nodded lightly, still looking at the snow maple tree in front of him, until sunset, without speaking.

"That night, Princess Wan'er was playing the piano in the building, but for some reason, she ran out of the Chunjiang Building, and then disappeared, and I don't know where Princess Wan'er went. The steward in the Chunjiang Building said.

"That night......" After Qin Zheng heard it, he fell into deep thought.

That night was when Yun Xiu made a big fuss in front of the palace, and Qin Wan'er also disappeared that night.

"Could it have something to do with Yun Xiu?" Qin Zheng said to himself, the last time he was ordered to come to Chunjiang Tower, he had heard what happened to Yun Xiu and others in front of Chunjiang Tower, and he had also heard that Yun Xiu had saved Qin Wan'er, and since then, he could often see Qin Wan'er's sometimes sweet and sometimes resentful expression.

"Investigate Situ Yunxiu's origin as soon as possible. Qin Zheng commanded.

"Yes. One of the soldiers replied, and hurried away with his men.

An hour later, the soldiers who rushed to investigate Yun Xiu's origin returned, and reported to Qin Zhengyu, who was standing under the snow maple tree: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Situ Yunxiu's origin has been investigated clearly, Situ Yunxiu's parents are not clear, since childhood, Situ Jiu, Situ Qingling, living on the South Mountain, as early as half a month ago, went down the mountain with the monk Fasheng, lived in the Chunjiang Building, and then participated in the robbery of the holy medicine, and disappeared for a period of time after that, the last time was to make a fuss in front of the palace gate, was repelled by a mysterious person, and life and death are unknown. ”

"Nanshan?" Qin Zheng listened to the report and fell into deep thought, with wisdom in his eyes.

Every time Yun Xiu appeared, he had more or less contact with Qin Wan'er, and the last time he disappeared at the same time as Qin Wan'er, this was really suspicious, with Qin Zheng's wisdom, he had more or less guessed something.

"Where is Nanshan?" Qin Zheng asked.

"Back to Your Highness, Nanshan is located at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, less than an hour's distance from Jingling City. A soldier said.

"Set off to Nanshan......" When Qin Zheng heard this, he immediately ordered, and then led the soldiers in the direction of Nanshan.

"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is weird that Princess Wan'er is on the South Mountain?" a soldier asked.

"Yes, I'm sure it's not just Wan'er Huangmei on Nanshan, even Situ Yunxiu is also on Nanshan. Qin Zheng said.

"Isn't Situ Yunxiu dead?" the other soldier asked.

"Yes. Qin Zheng nodded.
