Bai Ye has been away for half a month, the autumn rain has been falling for several days, and the weather has suddenly become much cooler.
The world is soaked in the autumn rain, and the silky strands are like longing, long and short, filling the whole world of Luo Zhiyi.
"Miss, you have been standing here for almost an hour." Jin He behind him said softly, his tone full of concern and worry.
"Yeah." Luo Zhiyi finally came back to his senses. Has it been so long?
"Miss, if you are really bored, can you go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"But, I just went back again yesterday."
"Miss, the Prime Minister's Mansion is your home. You can stay here as long as you like. If you can stay here for a few more days, I don't know how happy I will be."
"Alas", Luo Zhiyi sighed softly, she didn't know it, but, for some reason, she didn't want to leave the palace. Only the palace has that person's shadow, that person's breath...
"Miss, when did you become a woman who is sad for spring and sad for autumn?" Jin He suddenly sighed and said nothing again.
For a moment, there was no sound in the room. Neither the master nor the servant spoke, and both looked out the window at the steady autumn rain.
In the rain curtain, a servant ran over.
Luo Zhiyi frowned, Jinhe had already opened the door.
"Prince's Mansion, there is someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion who wants to see you." The person who came was Xiao He who was next to Uncle Qing.
I just returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, and my parents sent someone here today. Did something happen?
"Miss..." Jin He turned around and looked at Luo Zhiyi.
"Go and have a look."
When Luo Zhiyi followed the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the house was filled with gloom and gloom.
"Dad, mother."
"Zhiyi", Jin Lewei has always been a cheerful, calm and calm person, but at this time, Luo Zhiyi saw her mother's worried look.
"The intention is back." The Prime Minister's father sat in the upper position with a sad look on his face.
Luo Yunting and Luo Yunxi were also there, sitting on the left, with dark faces and worries in their eyes.
"Little sister."
Luo Zhiyi helped her mother Jin Lewei sit down, and then looked at her father, the prime minister.
"Dad, what happened to the third brother?" Luo Zhiyi asked.
The prime minister's father sighed softly, and Luo Zhiyi discovered that overnight, the prime minister's father's temples were actually stained with hoarfrost.
"Your third brother is missing!"
"What's going on?" Luo Zhiyi was shocked.
"News came back from Shuoyang early this morning. After Zisang occupied Dongsan City, he did not continue the attack, but he made a surprise attack on Shuoyang, which was far away from Dongsan City. Your third brother was ordered to lead troops to attack Zisang's army and fought.
One day, all your third brother’s troops were wiped out, and your third brother’s life or death is unknown..."
Luo Zhiyi sat down slumped, and only the last few words of the Prime Minister's father were left in his ears: "Life or death is unknown."
For a moment, the only sound heard in the hall was the cry of mother Jin Lewei.
After a long time, Luo Zhiyi asked again: "Dad, who brought this news back?"
"It was the news sent back by my people." Second brother Luo Yunxi said.
"Didn't the court send any news?"
"My news is two days ahead of the court's. The court will probably get the news the day after tomorrow." The Luo Shang Alliance of the second brother Luo Yunxi is a huge news alliance, which is unparalleled in the whole of Vietnam.
Of course, very few people know this.
"I think Third Brother will be fine!" Luo Zhiyi said suddenly.
Everyone in the hall looked at Luo Zhiyi, but saw her face was determined.
"I also agree with little sister. The third child will be fine. At least he should be alive now. As for whether he is safe, it's hard to say." The second brother Luo Yunxi also said: "Little sister, I asked you to come back because I wanted to
I want you to write a letter to the Ninth Prince and ask him to send someone to investigate the situation of your third brother."
"This, even if my parents don't say it, Zhiyi will do it." Luo Zhiyi looked at the prime minister's father, who had aged overnight, and felt sad in his heart.
"Father, mother, Yun Xi and my little sister are right. The third child has never seen anyone alive or dead. There is only one possibility, and that is to be captured!" The eldest brother Luo Yunting stood up and walked to the center of the hall, facing the leader.
The parents bowed and said, "Mom, dad, I plan to take a trip to Shuoyang."
After appeasing his mother, Luo Zhiyi insisted on returning to the palace.
Before I even walked in, Uncle Qing came.
"Princess, the prince sent someone to bring this back." Uncle Qing smiled and handed Luo Zhiyi a box.
After returning to the room, looking at Jin He who looked sad and in a daze, Luo Zhiyi sighed softly, hugged her, and comforted her: "Don't worry, third brother will be fine, we will definitely rescue him."
."
After listening to Luo Zhiyi's words, Jinhe girl, who had been persisting, finally cried.
Looking at the crying figure leaving, Luo Zhiyi whispered: "Third brother, you must come back safely. There are so many people who love you here waiting for your return."
Luo Zhiyi returned to the small study at the back of the bedroom alone and looked at the box that Uncle Qing handed her. It was the size of a palm and had a rough appearance that had nothing to do with beauty and refinement. The wood used was also ordinary wood.
Luo Zhiyi couldn't understand why Bai Ye would give her such a box.
After guessing for a long time, Luo Zhiyi gave up. It was estimated that the things inside were given to her by Bai Ye.
Opening the box, there was a hairpin lying quietly inside, a simple wooden hairpin. The style was very simple, with an auspicious cloud and a little vermilion in the middle.
It’s red beans!
The whole body of the wooden hairpin was smooth, but Luo Zhiyi could tell at a glance that it was slowly carved with a sword. The auspicious cloud carving was not very beautiful, but with the embellishment of red beans, it became a little bit cute.
Luo Zhiyi smiled, this wooden hairpin must have been made by Bai Ye himself.
It turned out that after learning that Bai Ye was going to go on an expedition in three days, Luo Zhiyi didn't say anything, but he remained depressed. Bai Ye saw this and felt pain in his heart.
The night before the expedition, I took Luo Zhiyi to Yuelao Temple.
Yuelao Temple is located in the west of the capital. Because of its remoteness, not many people went there. However, since someone discovered that there was a big tree with red beans in the temple, more and more people went there.
Red beans are acacia beans, and they are the best thing for lovers to express their love for each other.
When Bai Ye took Luo Zhiyi there, there was actually a pair of lovers under the red bean tree. The two were very affectionate. They left shyly when Bai Ye and Luo Zhiyi appeared.
Bai Ye pulled Luo Zhiyi and knelt down in front of the statue of Yue Lao, promising that he would never betray you for the rest of his life. At that moment, Luo Zhiyi's heart was filled with sweetness and emotion that he had never experienced before!
Luo Zhiyi didn't even know when Bai Ye took the red bean into his pocket.
Looking at the red bean hairpin in her hand, Luo Zhiyi's heart was filled with sweetness. She suddenly thought of her third brother whose life and death were unknown. Luo Zhiyi made a decision. She was going to find her prince husband, and she was going to save her third brother.
elder brother!
Thinking of her parents' opposition to her eldest brother going to Shuoyang during the day, Luo Zhiyi knew that if she said she wanted to go, the opposition would be even greater, so she could only go secretly!
