The Favoured Medical Princess: 140 Lost

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

"These four ladies are so generous!"

A short woman returned to the kitchen with a silver bag in her arms, her whole face wrinkled with laughter.

Today, she won the opportunity to deliver lunch to the Fourth Madam's Yirong Courtyard after overcoming the crowd. She just hoped to say a few auspicious words to the Fourth Madam who had just entered the house and ask for some rewards. Unexpectedly, the Fourth Madam She was even more generous than she thought, and asked her personal maid to reward her with two silver nuggets - this was her monthly salary for three months!

"Then it's my turn for dinner!" Another skinny woman said angrily, her eyes turning red with envy.

Although the short woman was a little reluctant to give up, she was also embarrassed to eat alone, so she could only respond vaguely.

"Hey, hey, have you heard about it?" Another fat woman with big shoulders and round waist walked in from the door. She was holding an empty food box in her hand. Before she put it down, she said excitedly, "Su The marriage between the cousin and Prince Lu of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion has been brought forward!"

She thought she had dropped a bomb, but she didn't want to cause the two women to boo: "You are the one who knows Liu Dahe's family."

The thin woman looked at the fat woman with disdain, "I think everyone in the house except you already knows the news!" Miss Su Biao's marriage was suddenly moved forward to a month later, and the news spread early in the morning After searching through the entire Nangong Mansion, there are probably not many people who don’t know.

The fat lady was a little disappointed at first, but she quickly regained her composure. After looking around, she lowered her voice and said, "Then do you know why the marriage was suddenly brought forward?"

The short woman didn't care, and while taking out a steamed bun from the steamer, she said, "Just advance it! What does it have to do with us?"

The thin woman seemed to have thought of something, and said thoughtfully: "Could it be that the 'rumor' is true?" She deliberately emphasized the word "rumor".

"What rumors?" The short woman was so excited that she even forgot to eat for the time being.

The thin woman said mysteriously: "I heard that Miss Su Biao is pregnant, so I can only get married as soon as possible!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" This time it was the fat woman Liu Dahe's turn to look back with disdain, "I have first-hand information. My sister-in-law saw and heard yesterday with her own eyes and ears, and there is no trace of it. Of!"

When she said this, the curiosity of the thin woman and the short woman was piqued. They leaned over and asked: "Liu Dahe's family, you should tell me quickly."

"I tell you, don't tell others. If this matter spreads, no one will have an easy time." The fat woman warned a few words first, and then lowered her voice and said, "Last night, I heard that Su My cousin and Prince Lu had a private meeting at Jingzhe Residence, and they did that kind of thing... and were caught red-handed by the eldest lady and her men!"

"No way?" the short woman whispered in disbelief, "This girl Su Biao doesn't look like this kind of person." She said this, but she thought with disdain in her heart: This Miss Su Biao has such a moral character, she is worse than a prostitute!

"How not!" The fat lady said hurriedly, fearing that she wouldn't believe it, "You don't want it to be like this. Both families have exchanged Geng Tie, why did they suddenly advance the marriage? Even the eldest lady specially moved the girls' girlfriends The school reform has reached the point of inviting Yueju!"

The short woman and the thin woman thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was true. They exchanged a look and thought together: Could it be that Miss Su Biao is really with Prince Lu...

"This is really beyond the pale!"

The ladies were talking enthusiastically until they heard a dry cough. Seeing that the steward from the kitchen was coming, the three of them hurriedly kept silent.

Although the servants did not dare to discuss the matter in front of their masters and stewards, it was still widely spread among the people. Especially at that time, there were quite a few servants following Zhao who saw what happened. Even under Zhao's strict order They were not allowed to spread rumors, so this scandal spread from one to two, and then to four... In just one day, almost all the servants of Nangong Mansion knew about it.

Even though the master did not dare to tell the public due to his majesty, the servants discussed it in private. Originally, some people didn't believe this and thought it was too ridiculous, but seeing that the masters above were all keeping secrets, they felt that there must be something evil going on.

Even the "miscarriage" incident of Su Qingping that had been gradually forgotten half a year ago was mentioned again. When thinking about what happened this time, the servants were shocked.

On the outside, this girl Su Biao looks reserved and like a lady, but in private she actually does such scandalous things again and again, which is really unbelievable.

Su Qingping was confined in the room by Mrs. Liu, so she naturally knew nothing about these rumors. However, Liu Rong soon found out about it, but she hid it from Su Qingping in fear and did not dare to say a word.

With Su Qingping no longer hanging in front of her eyes, Nangong Yue was in a good mood and devoted herself to diagnosing and treating Mrs. Lin.

In a few days, Lin's health was getting better day by day.

And because Nangong Mu knew the secret behind his wife's poisoning, he was considerate of Lin in every possible way and even skipped the study. Although Mrs. Lin felt strange, she would not push her husband out because of this.

The matters in the inner courtyard cannot be hidden from Su's eyes and ears. Su's heart just feels that this Lin is simply the reincarnation of a vixen. She always clings to her son. If she wasn't worried about Nangong Yue, the county head, she would Now I want to give my second son a maid.

In this tangled mood, Su suddenly received a post. Her eyes flashed and she asked in a deep voice: "You said this post was sent by Princess Mingyue of Pingyang Marquis Mansion. of?"

"Yes, old lady!" Dong'er replied.

Ms. Su looked at the peach-pink post for a while, then said to Dong'er: "Dong'er, go and call the eldest lady."

"Yes, old lady!"

Dong'er hurried over and soon attracted Mrs. Zhao.

"Mother!"

As soon as Zhao heard about Princess Mingyue's post, she immediately put down the affairs at hand and rushed to Rongan Hall as quickly as possible.

Before entering the door, she finally remembered her manners as a mistress of the house. After breathing slowly, she walked into the Toji Room.

"Boss, please come and sit down." Mrs. Su waved her hand and called Mrs. Zhao to come to her side, "Please take a look at this post."

Zhao opened the delicate peach-pink post in surprise, her eyebrows raised unconsciously.

It turned out that Princess Mingyue sent a message inviting Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue to go on an outing together in five days.

Although there was not a single word about Nangong Sheng in this post, Zhao's heart was still filled with ups and downs. Ever since her last encounter with Princess Mingyue's mother, Mrs. Pingyang Hou, at Bailong Temple, she hadn't slept well for several nights because she couldn't bear the thought of her son giving up such a good wife for an ordinary girl from a poor family.

Now Princess Mingyue’s post has once again ignited the spark of hope in Zhao’s heart!

Princess Mingyue was of noble birth and had a flamboyant personality. She had always only interacted with the noblest ladies in the royal capital, but now she posted a message to Sister Qing. Doesn't that mean...

Zhao met Su's eyes and saw the same thought in her eyes.

Brother Sheng must be interested in Princess Mingyue!

It’s just that Liu Qingqing is indeed a big trouble!

"Mother..." Zhao looked at Su expectantly, hoping that she would be able to make a decision.

The Su family naturally hopes that Nangong Sheng can marry the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. In this way, the Nangong Mansion will be inextricably linked to the royal family and truly take root in the royal capital. But she also knew that with the temperament of her eldest son Nangong Qin, he would never take the initiative to cancel the engagement!

Su Shi pondered for a moment and said: "...In short, since Princess Mingyue is here to make an appointment with Sister Cheng this time, let Sister Cheng go and talk about the rest later."

Zhao was a little disappointed and responded, "Yes, mother." She secretly thought: For the sake of her son, she had to make a good plan.

This post by Princess Mingyue caused a lot of trouble in Nangong Mansion.

Not to mention how jealous the third room was, Lin and Nangong Yue, the second room, were both reluctant.

At this moment, Nangong Yue didn’t know the ulterior motives of her grandmother and aunt Zhao. She just wondered why Jiayue suddenly posted this song to herself and her eldest sister Nangong Cheng. Obviously this princess has never had a good impression of the two sisters, and has tried to embarrass them many times, but now she has sent them messages inexplicably!

Is there some conspiracy?

"Sister Yue, why not take the princess back?" Mrs. Lin suggested worriedly. She still remembered how proud Princess Mingyue was when she went to the palace to attend the palace banquet at the beginning of the year and didn't even bother to give them a good look.

This is true even when there are so many people. If these two careless little girls, Sister Yue and Sister Cheng, are embarrassed by Princess Mingyue, wouldn’t they be calling the heavens and the earth into disarray?

Nangong Yue stroked the post, and she also suspected that Qu Jiayue was coming from an unkind person, and a kind person would not come! But he didn't take the other party seriously either.

If the other party really has ulterior motives, then he can hide for a while but not for a lifetime. It is better to face him head on and take advantage of every move!

Nangong Yue did not dare to say these words to Lin just like that. She thought for a while and said implicitly: "Mother, I think it's impossible. I'm afraid grandma won't agree."

Mrs. Lin frowned slightly, knowing that Nangong Yue was right. With Su's character, they would never allow them to refuse the princess.

But...

"Sister Yue, don't worry, I'll go with your grandmother..."

"Mother," Nangong Yue interrupted Lin with a smile, leaned into her arms and comforted her, "Don't worry, I will be fine. Don't forget that I am the county head personally appointed by the emperor. , although it is not as high as the princess, but it is not something that Princess Mingyue can trample on at will, and I will not let her embarrass me!"

The vengeance of the Lantern Festival has been avenged. Nangong Yue feels that she is now clean with Qu Jiayue, but if Qu Jiayue comes to provoke her again, she will not be bullied for nothing!

After hearing what she said, Ms. Lin finally felt relieved. Like all mothers, in her heart, her daughter would always be a little girl who would never grow up.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye. On the day of the outing, Huamei chose a light yet dignified SoftBank Qingluo Lily skirt for Nangong Yue, and gave her a simple and elegant double bun.

When Nangong Yue arrived at the second gate with Yimei and Baihui, Nangong Cheng, who was always punctual, was already waiting there with Shuxiang and Moxiang. She was seen wearing a Qianshui skirt with an ancient pattern of double butterflies and clouds, her hair was combed with double combs, and dots of gold and pink beads were dotted in her bun. It was simple yet stunning.

However, she seemed to be frowning slightly, and she completely lost the joy of going out. Zhao only asked her to go to Princess Mingyue's appointment, but didn't mention anything else, so Nangong Cheng always had some grudges about this trip. After all, she was very aware of Qu Jiayue's hostility towards her.

"Big sister!"

"Third sister!"

After the two sisters greeted each other, Nangong Cheng looked at Nangong Yue without hesitation, but finally gave up with a sigh and said with a forced smile: "Sister Yue, it's getting late, let's go!" When the time comes, how can she be allowed to go without saying she won't go?

"Yes, big sister." Nangong Yue knew what Nangong Cheng wanted to say, but pretended to be nonchalant.

There are two carriages parked at the second gate, one is Nangong Yue’s Zhulun carriage, and the other carriage is prepared by the mansion for Nangong Cheng. Although the Nangong mansion’s carriage is also extraordinary, it is different from the Ministry of Internal Affairs specially for the county. Compared with the Zhu Lun Chai made by the Lord, it is still far inferior.

Nangong Cheng's eyes couldn't help but linger on Nangong Yue's Zhulun Car, feeling envious. This gold-covered red-wheeled cart is painted with exquisite paintings and decorated with pearls and jade necklaces. It looks both luxurious and exquisite.

Nangong Yue's heart moved, and she smiled and invited: "Sister, it's a long journey, we sisters might as well ride in the same carriage, so that we can talk and relieve our boredom." After that, she pulled Nangong Cheng on without any explanation. Zhu wheel car.

Nangong Yue's maids Yimei and Baihui, and Nangong Cheng's maids Shuxiang and Moxiang got into the carriage behind.

The four guards escorted the carriage out of the West City Gate safely, and after driving for another half an hour, they arrived at the foot of Cuiwei Mountain.

The scenery of Cuiwei Mountain is indeed as beautiful as the rumors. The air is filled with the fragrance of trees, the sound of wind blowing leaves and the sound of gurgling valley water make people relax.

Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue got out of the carriage with the help of the maid, and Mingyue Princess Qu Jiayue immediately greeted them warmly.

She wore a goose-yellow swirl-embroidered gauze skirt today. The bright yellow made her skin seem to glow, but it was still slightly inferior to the naturally stunning Nangong Cheng.

"Miss Nangong, Lord Yaoguang County, long time no see!"

Qu Jiayue had a smile on her face, as if she was welcoming a close friend she hadn't seen for many years. When her eyes fell on Nangong Cheng's beautiful face, her face stiffened slightly, and then she smiled warmly again.

She thought she was being extremely friendly, but she didn't know that this made Nangong Yue and Nangong Yue even more wary. As the saying goes, "when things go wrong, there will be monsters." The two sisters exchanged a look, and their hearts became more and more defensive.

"See Princess Mingyue!"

Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue knelt down and saluted together. Qu Jiayue hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, why are you two so polite?"

Although Qu Jiayue said it nicely, Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue did not want the other party to catch their mistakes, so they still exercised enough etiquette.

Qu Jiayue has become accustomed to others being respectful in front of her, so she doesn’t feel anything is wrong. She continues to talk warmly to the two of them, "How are you two girls?" Thinking of the Fang Yan Party, Qu Jiayue felt a little unhappy. If Miss Nasu and Miss Lu from Xuanpinghou Mansion hadn't bothered with something that day, Nangong Sheng and Nangong Cheng wouldn't have left early...

Originally, she might have had the opportunity to establish a good relationship with Nangong Cheng first, and even get to see Mr. Nangong’s knowledge and style!

It's all Lu Zhen's fault!

Thinking of this, a flash of resentment flashed in Qu Jiayue's eyes.

Both Nangong Yue and Nangong Cheng caught Qu Jiayue's fleeting eyes, and thought that Qu Jiayue was mocking the Nangong family for making a big mistake at the Fangyan Party. Nangong Yue was fine, but Nangong Cheng suddenly looked unnatural and said, "That day, my cousin accidentally fell into the water, which made the princess laugh."

"Miss Nangong, why are you so polite to me?" Qu Jiayue leaned towards Nangong Cheng affectionately and said, "This is not your fault. Hey, I have known Lu Zhen for many years, but I still don't know Is it her bad temper? This time, she really went too far and actually harmed herself!"

What she said made Nangong Yue and Nangong Qing look at each other, thinking: Could it be that the princess thought that Lu Zhen and Su Qingping had a dispute, so they both slipped and fell into the water?

Qu Jiayue really thought so in her heart. She has known Lu Zhen for many years, and she has never seen Lu Zhen pretending to be a tiger or a tiger. Sometimes, Qu Jiayue would even ask Lu Zhen to teach the other person a lesson for her. This is not the first time that Lu Zhen has played this drama of falling into the water. She didn’t expect that she went too far this time and even got herself into trouble!

At this time, several other girls not far away also came over. Qu Jiayue invited all the prominent ladies in the royal capital this time: Jiang Yixi from the Enguo Duke's Palace, Yuan Yuyi, the eldest daughter of Princess Yuncheng's eldest daughter, Liushuang County Princess, and Han Qixia, the eldest daughter of the Prince of Qi's Palace, plus Shang Nangongyue sisters, there are six in total.

"Sister Xi." Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue have always been familiar with Jiang Yixi, so they met her first.

"Sister Cheng, sister Yue." Jiang Yixi returned the gift with a smile, and then introduced the other girls to the two of them, "You must have met this Liushuang County Master at the Princess Yuncheng Mansion, and this one. It’s Han Qixia, the eldest girl from Prince Qi’s palace.”

After the girls greeted each other one by one, Nangong Yue looked at Han Qixia calmly. This Han Qixia should be Han Huaijun's half-sister and the full sister of the Crown Prince of Qi. Her appearance seems to be 45% similar to that of Prince Qi, and her facial features are quite beautiful, but she is average-looking among these girls. However, the little girl is tall and slender, with a straight waist, and she seems to be full of confidence.

At this moment, it is Chenshi, the golden sunshine is shining all over the earth, and Cuiwei Mountain seems to be covered with a layer of pale golden gauze.

Nangong Yue followed everyone up the stairs and looked at Qu Jiayue in front of her, who kept pulling Nangong Cheng. The name she used in her mouth changed from "Miss Nangong" to "Sister Cheng" at some point. She got goosebumps as she listened from behind, and she couldn't help but wonder: What kind of medicine was Princess Mingyue selling in her gourd today.

But what is certain is that being courteous for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Qu Jiayue suddenly changed her attitude towards Nangong Cheng, she must have something up her sleeve!

Nangong Cheng was not a fool. Seeing that Qu Jiayue's behavior toward her was different from usual, she became increasingly wary. For fear of making too many mistakes, she only replied briefly after what the other person said, so that no one could find fault.

Other girls have always known how unruly Qu Jiayue is, but they have never seen her take the initiative to make friends with others. They couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, but they wisely didn't say anything out loud.

"Sister Yue," Jiang Yixi couldn't help but softly asked Nangong Yue beside her, a little strangely, "When did your eldest sister have such a good relationship with Princess Mingyue?"

Nangong Yue shook her head and said with the same puzzlement: "Sister Xi, I don't know either. This time the princess actually invited eldest sister and me, which surprised us." After a pause, she continued Asked, "Sister Xi, do you think she really wants to be friends with my eldest sister?"

"I think it's possible to say this to others!" Jiang Yixi has a straightforward personality and said bluntly, "But if it's to Princess Mingyue, I don't believe it!"

"Then what is she doing?" Nangong Yue was puzzled.

"You will know sooner or later, just ask your eldest sister to be more careful!" Jiang Yixi has dealt with Qu Jiayue a lot, and he knows her character very well.

"That's all!" Nangong Yue smiled helplessly and chatted with Jiang Yixi about another topic.

After walking for a while, a pavilion named Wangyue Pavilion appeared in front of everyone. Qu Jiayue pulled Nangong Cheng into Wangyue Pavilion affectionately and said, "We must be tired after walking for such a long time. ? Why not take a rest here first."

Indeed, Yuan Yuyi and Han Qixia were already showing signs of fatigue, so Qu Jiayue's proposal naturally received their response.

Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi did not object, so the group took a break at Wangyue Pavilion and leisurely enjoyed the nearby scenery.

The mountain breeze is blowing gently, and the orioles are singing softly. The girls are standing or sitting in the moon-watching pavilion, gathering together in twos and threes to chat, it is so leisurely.

After resting in the Moon-watching Pavilion for about a quarter of an hour, suddenly a group of young men in brocade clothes appeared on the mountain road.

Nangong Yue looked up and found that King Chang Dicheng and the third prince Han Lingfu were walking at the front, followed by five young masters from aristocratic families. Coincidentally, Xiao Yi and Han Huaijun were also among them. When the prince and Prince Cheng travel, they are naturally accompanied by bodyguards. These seven young masters plus a dozen or so bodyguards can be considered a powerful force.

"Third cousin!"

"I have met His Highness the Third Prince!"

"I have met His Highness King Cheng!"

The girls bowed one by one, and Han Lingfu and Prince Cheng naturally asked them to exempt themselves from the ceremony.

After all, these young men are all foreign men. The girls were about to avoid them when they saw the eldest king, King Dicheng, said loudly: "Girls, meeting each other means we are destined. It seems that you are also going for an outing. How about coming with us?" ”

Nangong Yue looked at King Chang Dicheng in surprise. This man speaks Mandarin so well and can also recite poems and write lyrics. Is it possible that he doesn't know how strict the men and women of Dayu are on guard?

But when she noticed King Cheng's hot and stunning gaze focused on Nangong Yue, Nangong Yue instantly understood that it turned out that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.

Nangong Yue frowned and was about to refuse, but when she heard Qu Jiayue said first, "Why not!"

Qu Jiayue let out a clear and sweet laugh, "King Cheng came to our Dayu as a guest. As the host, it is my duty as a citizen of Dayu to introduce the scenic spots of Dayu to His Highness King Cheng. !" Her words were quite high-sounding.

"Thank you very much, Princess Mingyue!" King Cheng laughed loudly.

The girls all felt that something was wrong, but after Qu Jiayue said so, they could not object anymore. Qu Jiayue was known in the capital for her willful behavior. This outing was organized by her, although What she said just now was a little far-fetched, but it was still manageable.

Since no one objected, Nangong Yue was not in a position to say anything to dampen the mood. Jiang Yixi whispered in Nangong Yue's ear and introduced three strange young masters. They were Chen Lang from the Chen University Palace, Ji Shuxuan from the Ministry of Industry's Shangshu Palace, and Mo Xilin from the General Dingguo Palace.

Since they agreed to go together, these girls of noble birth were not petty people, so they chatted with the young men from aristocratic families about some poems and songs. While talking, everyone headed towards the mountain road together.

Xiao Yi walked slower and slower, falling behind quietly. After a while, he naturally walked to Nangong Yue's side.

"Stinky girl, you didn't even call me when you went out for an outing!" Xiao Yi said softly, with deep grievance in his tone.

Nangong Yue held her forehead speechlessly. This was Princess Mingyue inviting her sisters to come for an outing. How could she ask a man like Xiao Yi to come over?

Nangong Yue didn't say anything for a while, but Xiao Yi became more energetic and said pitifully: "Smelly girl, you are so heartless! You ask me to do something, and I will do it for you beautifully without saying anything. , but what about you?"

Of course what Xiao Yi was talking about was about the Fangyan Party, but it made Nangong Yue feel a little guilty: It seemed like that, she hadn't thanked him properly yet.

However, even if I want to thank him, it is not now...

Considering Xiao Yi’s indomitable skills and aggressive character, Nangong Yue cleverly changed the subject: "Why are you here today?"

Xiao Yi naturally understood that Nangong Yue was trying to change the subject, but her change of topic happened to suit his liking. So he replied with a smile: "The emperor sent me and the third prince to take King Cheng around the capital. King Cheng heard that the scenery of Cuiwei Mountain is very beautiful, so we accompanied him here."

"Oh." Nangong Yue responded lightly.

Xiao Yi was dissatisfied, and said anxiously: "Smelly girl, why don't you ask who King Cheng heard this from?"

Nangong Yue's brows twitched and she glanced at Xiao Yi, could it be...

Xiao Yi nodded proudly, his sly eyes seeming to say, yes, that’s it!

Yesterday, the emperor sent several of them to lead King Cheng to visit the royal capital, but the reason why King Cheng became interested in Cuiwei Mountain was precisely because Xiao Yi learned that Nangong Yue and the others were going to Cuiwei Mountain for an outing today, and deliberately asked King Cheng The mention of this place aroused his interest, so these young masters came here.

This is really the case... Nangong Yue no longer knows what kind of response to give.

Xiao Yi looked at her with a smile that was so bright that it was dazzling, and his face said: Praise me! Am I smart?

Nangong Cheng, who was walking side by side with Qu Jiayue in front, suddenly turned around and glanced at Nangong Yue. Seeing her talking to Xiao Yi and looking very familiar with each other, she couldn't help but wonder: When did Sister Yue meet the King of Zhennan? Did you know the prince? ...it seems quite familiar.

This thought just passed by for a moment. Nangongcheng saw that Nangongyue and Xiao Yi behaved in a moderate manner. They just talked normally and were not too intimate. They seemed to be no different from other young men and girls, so Nangongcheng also I didn't take this matter too seriously.

The group of people walked for a while, and the sky gradually darkened. Suddenly, a large number of dark clouds came from the south, instantly covering the beautiful blue sky. The sky was filled with layers of black clouds, so dark that it felt like there was It felt like something was pressing on top of my head.

"Tick tock! Tick tock!"

Large raindrops quickly fell down, densely packed, causing slight pain on the skin, and everyone couldn't help but stop.

"It's raining!"

I don’t know which girl screamed in surprise. The maids were immediately in a hurry. Looking at the blue sky and white sun, no one thought that a heavy rain would suddenly occur, so they did not bring umbrellas and could only reluctantly pull up their cloaks to protect the girls from the rain.

Han Lingfu looked back at the winding mountain path behind him, then looked up at the looming pavilion among the trees on the top of the mountain. They walked up from the foot of the mountain for at least an hour. If they returned the same way, everyone would be soaked in the rain. They might as well take shelter from the rain in the pavilion dozens of feet away.

He said decisively: "We might as well go to the pavilion on the top of the mountain to take shelter from the rain!"

The girls were in a hurry to respond. Everyone quickened their pace and swarmed towards the top of the mountain...

Seeing that we were getting closer and closer to the pavilion on the top of the mountain, "Rumble..." The dark clouds were thick, and a huge lightning flashed in the sky like a dark night, accompanied by bursts of deafening thunder, and the sound of rain became heavier and heavier. It got bigger and bigger, and within a moment, it began to rain heavily.

At this time, the pavilion on the top of the mountain has completely come into view. It is a wooden pavilion with a black tile roof. Because of the passage of time, the red paint on it has faded. A huge hanging above the pavilion The plaque has the three characters "Yuewei Pavilion" written in gold paint with flying dragons and phoenixes.

Everyone was not in the mood to take a closer look at the pavilion, so they quickly quickened their pace and rushed into the pavilion like a swarm of swarms.

Fortunately, this pavilion is big enough, even for their dozen female servants and twenty or so grown men.

These gentlemen were all observant of etiquette and consciously leaned together, so the pavilion was divided into two areas, with men and women occupying each side.

Jiang Yixi specially ordered several maids to stand in a row and make human screens to block the center of the pavilion.

Fortunately, although there was a little rain on the girls' clothes, they were not soaked, so it was not a big problem. It was just that their hair was a little messed up during the run, which made them look a little embarrassed.

Nangong Yue glanced around, but did not find Nangong Cheng. Her heart skipped a beat, her face changed drastically, and she said anxiously: "Sister Xi, have you seen my eldest sister?"

Jiang Yixi was wiping the rain on her face with a handkerchief. She didn't pay attention at first, "Isn't Sister Qing right here?" As she said that, she turned to look to her right, her eyes widened and her expression changed. Sudden change, "Where's the person? Sister Cheng has been by my side before!" Not only was Nangong Cheng missing, but her maids Shuxiang and Moxiang were also missing.

Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi are both worried. This woman's reputation is the most important thing. It would be okay if Nangong Qing only disappears for a while, but if it lasts for a long time, ten thousand mouths may not be able to explain it!

The two looked around the pavilion anxiously. Qu Jiayue, Yuan Yuyi and Han Qixia were all there, but Nangong Cheng was not among them.

At this time, Qu Jiayue and the others also found that Nangong Cheng was missing, and couldn't help but look at each other.

"It's not here. It must have been accidentally separated during the heavy rain." Nangong Yue said worriedly, "No, I have to find her!" With that, she strode out of the pavilion. Xiao Yi, who was on the other side of the pavilion, naturally noticed the movement on Nangong Yue's side and followed him without saying a word.

"Wait a moment, County Lord!" A tall figure suddenly stood in front of Nangong Yue, it was Han Huaijun.

"Mr. Han..." Nangong Yue looked at Han Huaijun with a slight frown.

Han Huaijun hurriedly said: "County Master, although this Cuiwei Mountain is not too steep, the wind and rain are so strong. Not only are the roads slippery, but the view is also not good. It's not appropriate for you to go. Why don't I go find Miss Nangong!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Lingfu and Prince Cheng were heard walking up to Han Huaijun. Han Lingfu echoed: "County Lord, my cousin is right, it is too dangerous for you to find a girl." , let us go."

Even King Cheng comforted him: "County Lord, don't worry too much, your sister will be fine."

"Yes, Sister Yue." Jiang Yixi also persuaded her softly, "It's too dangerous for you to go. If Sister Qing comes back on her own and something happens to you, wouldn't it make Sister Qing feel guilty? It makes your family even more worried. Let them take a few guards with them, and they will be able to find Sister Cheng soon."

Nangong Yue is not a stubborn and unreasonable person. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that what Jiang Yixi said was true, so she nodded and saluted everyone gratefully: "Thank you all for the shaking light!"

"Your Majesty, you are very polite." Han Huaijun quickly returned the greeting and said, "My Majesty, regardless of whether we have found your sister or not, we will definitely be back in half an hour."

"Yao Guang understands." Nangong Yue nodded.

Now that the third prince had set an example, three other young masters from aristocratic families also came over and offered to come. Only Xiao Yi suddenly took a step back and said righteously: "You girls are left alone here. It’s not good, it’s better for me to stay in the pavilion to protect you, to avoid any accidents!”

Everyone had long heard that the prince of Zhennan was unlike his father and ancestors and that he was a **** and useless. Now that they saw it, they didn't care. Some people even felt that it would be better to live without him.

Several young masters gathered around, briefly agreed on a plan, and then left separately with a few guards.

Their figures soon became hazy in the rain. Nangong Yue stood quietly and did not move for a long time.

Xiao Yi walked to Nangong Yue and comforted her in a low voice: "With so many people looking for her, nothing serious will happen to her!"

Nangong Yue forced a smile and sighed: "I hope so!"

Xiao Yi stepped aside and leaned leisurely on a beam in the pavilion. He seemed to be admiring the rainy scene outside, but in fact, he was focused on Nangong Yue.

He was very satisfied with his wit. Although Nangong Cheng is Nangong Yue's cousin, in his heart, only Nangong Yue's safety is the most important. He will never be stupid enough to leave Nangong Yue here for a girl he doesn't even know!

On one side, everyone in the pavilion was worried about the whereabouts of Nangong Cheng; on the other side, Nangong Cheng, Shu Xiang and Mo Xiang, who had completely lost their way, also felt uncomfortable. In this barren mountain and wild ridge, the heavy rain continued, and they were simply screaming. The sky is not working, and the earth is not responding.

Nangong Cheng sprained his foot while running just now, making it difficult for them to move.

"The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the girl's feet are sprained again, and now we are lost again. What should we do?" Shuxiang looked up at the trees that seemed to be exactly the same around him. In the waterfall-like heavy rain, they No trace of the pavilion has been found for a long time.

Nangong Cheng was relatively calm and comforted the two maids: "Don't panic. When the third sister finds out that I'm missing, someone will definitely come looking for us. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Yes, yes, the girl is right." Mo Xiang nodded. Now they could only hope that Nangong Yue would discover that they were missing in time and ask someone to help find them.

Nangong Cheng sighed inwardly, and could only blame herself for not being careful. She walked too fast and didn't look at the road, and accidentally sprained her foot... When she and the two maids came to their senses, they found that there was no trace of everyone in front of them.

The three girls were in a panic at that time and could only figure out the general direction to go forward. However, the road was slippery on a rainy day and the heavy rain blocked their sight. They didn't know if they had gone astray. After finding the way, we still haven’t reached the pavilion on the top of the mountain...

There was no shelter from the rain nearby, so Nangong Cheng could only endure the pain in her feet. Supported by Shuxiang and Moxiang, she gritted her teeth and continued to move forward... At this time, time passed especially slowly, and she didn't know After a while, Nangong Cheng suddenly frowned and grabbed Mo Xiang's arm, "Listen, is someone shouting?"

When Nangong Cheng said this, Shuxiang and Moxiang both cheered up and listened intently, with happy faces on their faces.

"Yes, girl, there really is someone..." After saying that, Shuxiang was the first to shout to the front, "Hey, we are here, please come quickly..."

"Come quickly!" Mo Xiang also shouted loudly. Finally, someone came. If you missed this time, you don’t know how long you will have to wait.

Not long after, a tall figure gradually appeared in the rain. Shuxiang and Moxiang were so happy that they waved to each other vigorously, "We are here!"

The other party strode closer, and the familiar face became clear in the rain, "Miss Nangong, I finally found you." His voice was low and sweet, even in the sound of the rainstorm, it still stood out. .

"Your Highness Prince Cheng!" Nangong Qing stared blankly at that handsome face, almost unable to believe her eyes, and her chest beat rapidly twice.

"It's me, don't be afraid!" King Cheng took another step forward and looked at Nangong Cheng with burning eyes, anxiety and concern in his eyes, which made Nangong Cheng involuntarily and inexplicably feel her ears starting to heat up.

Following that, his eyes fell on Nangong Cheng’s unnatural right foot, "Your foot..."

Shu Xiang hurriedly said: "Your Highness Prince Cheng, our girl's right foot is sprained."

"Although I am not proficient in medical skills, some bruises and injuries are not a problem." King Cheng knelt down and asked softly, "Miss Nangong, can I help you take a look? ”

Nangong Qing's pretty face froze, and she retracted her feet into her skirt reflexively. Mo Xiang spoke in a slightly raised tone, "Your Highness, Prince Cheng, our girl is a lady, how can we let our foreign man see her skin?" !"

King Cheng was stunned for a moment, straightened up again, and bowed his hands apologetically: "Miss Nangong, I am indeed rude. I forgot that this is Dayu, not Chang Di."

What he said was generous and upright. When Nangong Qing thought about it carefully, it was indeed true. Fu Fu Shen said: "His Royal Highness Cheng has good intentions, but I am rude."

"According to what I heard, your sister Yaoguang County Master is proficient in medical skills. It will be fine when we go to Yuewei Pavilion on the top of the mountain to meet her." King Cheng comforted her.

Hearing Prince Cheng say "we", Nangong Qing blushed slightly and nodded, "Then please lead the way, Prince Cheng."

"Girl please!"

The four people walked away quickly, and no one noticed a slender figure walking out from behind a big tree, looking at the back of the four people leaving with unknown meaning...
