Fu Minghui's handsome appearance, good conversation, and youthful spirit naturally made Duanmu Yaxin like him. It was rare to find such a man who was both civil and martial, and also had good looks. He was indeed worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Fu. This was true. The appearance of the young master of the Fu family had always been good.
In the capital, the common people who had never seen the emperor in the palace also made a list of handsome men, with Fu Mingrui ranked first, Fu Mingsu second, and now that Fu Minghui was back, he was third. What girl wouldn't like such a handsome man
The top scholar in literature had already been decided, and it was Qi Feng, but Qi Feng had already left. So the title was passed to Fu Minghui.
Of course, there were also some rumors that the reason why Qi Feng became the top scholar was probably because Lin Xiang’s son Lin Shulun did not participate.
Tonight, Fu Minghui was the winner. It was a combination of the right time, right place, and right people. In addition, Lin Shulun and Yuchi Jingbei had no intention of becoming royal relatives. No matter what, this was a marriage destined by heaven.
Duanmu Yaxin was extremely satisfied with Fu Minghui. She happily and shyly gave the gift to the handsome Fu Minghui. Several princes cheered on the side and pushed the two of them together to watch the moon together.
Although the story ended happily, Lin Shulun was already panicking. After the crowds of people moved away and he could no longer see Lin Shiyue, he started to panic for no reason.
In fact, he had been separated from Shiyue before, but he didn't feel panic at that time. But at this moment, he was really panicked, as if a dark hand suddenly grasped his heart, making his chest stuffy, uneasy, and unable to breathe. An ominous premonition swept over him like a dark cloud, covering his whole body.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people, but still no sign of Lin Shiyue, he became anxious. She was just one step away from him, how could she suddenly disappear without a trace
Just then, he saw Yuchi Qianer and the other Yuchi family men and women coming over, and he hurried forward: "Have you seen Shiyue?!"
When everyone heard this, they were stunned and looked around. Most of the people had left.
Yuchi Qianer immediately asked: "What's wrong? Master Lin? Shiyue is missing?" Her heart also became anxious.
No matter how calm Lin Shulun usually was, he couldn't help but panic at this moment. He pointed at the Lanyue Bridge and said, "Just when the fireworks were being set off, Shiyue came down from the Lanyue Bridge and disappeared in an instant."
"How is that possible?!" Yuchi Qian'er immediately looked at her eldest cousin Yuchi Wanghai, "Have you seen Miss Lin?"
Yuchi Wanghai and the others also shook their heads, but Yuchi Wanghai looked at Lin Shulun calmly: "Brother Lin, don't worry, we have more people, let's look for it together."
"Okay, okay..." Lin Shulun was really at a loss at the moment, because the ominous premonition in his heart really made him anxious.
"Everyone, look for it!"
"good!"
The men and women of the Yuchi family immediately dispersed and began to look for Lin Shiyue in every corner of the venue.
However, there were fewer and fewer people around, and the entire venue was empty. Everything was visible at a glance, except for Lin Shiyue.
Lin Shulun sensed something was wrong and immediately went to the Imperial Banquet to inform his father, and asked the Imperial Guards to help find his sister's whereabouts while they were still there.
Yuchi Qianer and her group's search soon attracted the attention of Duanmu Jinhong and Duanmu Yaxin, who had not yet left.
"Who are you looking for?" Duanmu Jinhong stopped Yuchi Wanghai.
Duanmu Ruifeng, Duanmu Yankang, and Fu Minghui with Duanmu Yaxin also came.
Yuchi Wanghai looked uneasy: "Reporting to the Third Prince, we are looking for Miss Lin, she..."
Upon hearing the last name Lin, Duanmu Jinhong immediately became nervous and grabbed Yuchi Wanghai's wrist and asked, "What happened to her?!"
Yuchi Wanghai looked worried: "She... is missing."
"What?! Could it be that he went down the mountain first?" Duanmu Yankang said.
Yuchi Wanghai shook his head: "Brother Lin said that his sister would not go down the mountain alone, so she must still be here."
"Here..." Duanmu Yaxin looked around. There was no one around. At a glance, she could count the eunuchs clearly.
"Then... will he fall off the mountain?" Duanmu Ruifeng said in fear, "Although there are guardrails here, there are still some places without them."
"No way!" Now, Yuchi Wanghai was really a little panicked.
Duanmu Jinhong tried to stay calm: "Where is Lin Shulun?"
"I'm going to inform the Right Prime Minister."
Duanmu Jinhong thought for a moment and looked around: "Someone come!"
Immediately, all the guards and eunuchs who were busy cleaning up came forward and knelt.
Duanmu Jinhong said solemnly: "Now, you all should listen to the orders of this Master Yuchi Wanghai and find Lin Shiyue, the daughter of the Right Prime Minister!"
"yes!"
After Duanmu Jinhong gave the order, he strode towards Magpie Bridge.
Duanmu Yankang and others also hurried to catch up. The daughter of the right prime minister has disappeared, which is a big deal.
Duanmu Yaxin was a little confused and looked at Fu Minghui. Fu Minghui was also quite surprised that the daughter of the right prime minister disappeared here. He immediately looked at Duanmu Yaxin: "Princess, although I really want to continue to accompany you, human life is at stake. I would like to ask for your help in finding Miss Lin."
Duanmu Yaxin saw that Fu Minghui was very loving, and she liked him even more. When she looked at Fu Minghui, her eyes gradually became more admiring: "Okay, I'll go with you to look for it."
Du Minghui smiled, and immediately asked Yuchi Wanghai with Duanmu Yaxin about what Lin Shiyue was wearing tonight, and helped find her together.
When Duanmu Jinhong came out of the Magpie Bridge, he saw Lin Shulun standing anxiously at the entrance of the imperial banquet. He was stopped by the guards and could not enter.
Duanmu Jinhong immediately stepped forward and patted Lin Shulun on the shoulder: "Follow me."
As he stepped forward, the guards hurriedly made way and stood respectfully with their heads bowed.
Lin Shulun immediately followed Duanmu Jinhong and the other two princes into the entrance of the imperial banquet.
At this time, most of the officials in the imperial banquet had already left, and even Fu Mingsu had gone down the mountain to wait for his father. In the imperial banquet hall, only Emperor Cheng, Fu Kun, Lin Jingzhi, General Yuchi Gongshan and Fatty Yao were left.
Emperor Cheng looked at Fu Kun with a smile and said, "There is news from next door. Zuo Xiang, do you know what the good news is?"
Fu Kun pretended not to know: "What good news? Your Majesty?"
Old General Yuchi standing by had an unpleasant expression on his face. He didn't expect that none of his own children loved the princess. If his children went on stage, how could Fu Minghui have a place
But it is difficult for him to interfere in the children's feelings.
Fatty Yao immediately congratulated: "Congratulations, congratulations, Lord Zuo Xiang."
Fu Kun looked at Yao Guang's smiling face and said proudly: Humph, I still need you to congratulate me? Everything is under my control.
Lin Jingzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The two children were low-key and obedient and did not fight for it.
Lord Yao Guang looked at Emperor Cheng with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, please tell us the good news."
"that is… "
Before Emperor Cheng finished speaking, Duanmu Jinhong led Lin Shulun into the hall in a hurry: "Father! Something happened!"
Emperor Cheng was immediately displeased. They were just talking about good things, and Duanmu Jinhong came in and said something was wrong. How come the usually calm third son also learned bad things from the crown prince? (To be continued)
