Shang Yuanshan was really anxious. "Boss, was there a little girl this tall just now?" Shang Yuanshan stretched out his hand to measure Shang Yangyang's height. "She was wearing a red dress with white edges and two little balls on her head. She was a very cute little doll."
The vendor frowned and shook his head. "I didn't see the little girl you mentioned."
A vendor selling candied haws nearby heard the commotion and enthusiastically pulled Shang Yuanshan over. "You look familiar to me."
Shang Yuanshan was so anxious at this time that he didn't have time to listen to the vendor's unfamiliar look at him. "Did you see the little girl I was talking about?"
The vendor then remembered what he was going to say: "I just saw that little girl holding a little rabbit lantern."
"Yes, she is there."
"I just saw the little girl was alone, and I wanted to call her over to ask where her family was, but there were so many people around me, and the child disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Lin Siqing: "Where can Yangyang go?"
The vendor continued, "Madam, you should hurry up and look for her. Many families have lost their children recently. Hey~"
Lin Siqing trembled all over after hearing this, but she knew she couldn't fall down, she had to find Shang Yangyang.
The family had no time to blame themselves and they started looking for Shang Yangyang nearby.
As for Shang Yangyang, she had just squeezed through the crowd and saw the vendors selling candied haws and masks. She stood between the two stalls, wondering which one to buy first.
Just as she was looking around, she saw through the crowd in the dark corner of the street. She saw an old woman with a smirk on her face holding a little boy.
The little boy was struggling, but when the woman's handkerchief touched the boy's mouth, the boy fainted.
Shang Yangyang's face wrinkled and she rushed forward angrily, squeezing through the crowd again.
"Yiyaya~~" Shang Yangyang forgot that she couldn't speak yet. Just when she turned around to look for Shang Yuanshan, who had a telepathic connection with her, she found that her father and mother were missing.
Shang Yangyang sighed "Ah~"
[Daddy and Mommy, why do my brothers always worry me so much? What if they get lost? ]
At the same time, the woman noticed Shang Yangyang and an ugly smile appeared on her face.
"Little girl, are you lost?"
Shang Yangyang blinked and looked at the human trafficker in front of her. After thinking for a moment, she nodded obediently.
"Then auntie will take you to find your family, okay?"
Shang Yangyang nodded obediently again.
The woman walked up to Shang Yangyang and hugged her, then disappeared around the corner of the street.
When Shang Yuanshan and the others found the street corner where Shang Yangyang had just been, they saw the lonely little rabbit lantern on the ground.
Lin Siqing went forward and picked up the lantern. "Yangyang must have been here just now."
Lin Siqing covered her chest and had difficulty breathing.
Shang Yuanshan stepped forward to help Lin Siqing calm down. "Yanqing, you guys take good care of mother. Daddy will go to the Dali Temple and the patrol soldiers to find help."
Lin Siqing grabbed Shang Yuanshan's hand. "We must find Yangyang."
"Um."
In the Dali Temple, Liu Quan put away the documents and prepared to go home to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Before he left the house, he heard a noisy sound outside the yard.
He walked forward and opened the door with a slight anger on his face. "Who is yelling so loudly?"
"Liu Quan is me."
When Liu Quan saw Shang Yuanshan in front of him, he trembled. "I didn't know that Lord Shang had arrived. What do you want me to do?"
"Hurry up and send someone to the street to help me find Shang Yangyang. Yangyang is wearing a red dress with white edges today. Go find her quickly. I'm going to the city patrol to ask them for help."
"Princess Zhaoyue is missing?" Liu Quan was shocked. He didn't dare to delay and personally took people to the street to look for Shang Yangyang.
Shang Yuanshan ran to where the patrol soldiers were and led them to search the city.
At this time, a carriage sped out of the city gate of the capital.
Sitting inside was the smiling Shang Yangyang, staring at the ugly woman with her big eyes.
"You're not afraid at all, little girl."
Shang Yangyang smiled and shook his head.
Seeing Shang Yangyang being so well-behaved, the woman felt happy and at ease. She no longer paid any attention to Shang Yangyang and let her walk around freely in the carriage.
Shang Yangyang opened the car window and stuck her head out. [Is this a way out of the capital? This is my first time out of the capital.]
Shang Yangyang suddenly thought of her worrying parents and brothers. [Oh no, they don't know Yangyang is out playing. Will they be worried? ]
[But it’s okay, I’ll be back soon. ]
What Shang Yangyang couldn't imagine was that her family was going crazy now.
Lin Siqing, Shang Yanqing and others continued to look for Shang Yangyang on the street.
A little girl in a red dress and two buns in front of her caught Lin Siqing's attention, and she rushed over directly. "Yangyang."
The little girl in front looked back and saw the disappointment in Lin Siqing's eyes. The little girl was so scared that she started crying.
The little girl's mother ran up and picked up the little girl. She looked at Lin Siqing with displeasure. "Who are you?"
Shang Yanqing stepped forward to protect Lin Siqing. "I'm sorry, ma'am, my sister is lost, and my mother was too anxious and recognized the wrong person."
The little girl's mother looked at Lin Siqing embarrassedly. "Madam, you should report to the police immediately. There have been many cases of missing children in the capital recently."
Lin Siqing nodded. "Okay."
Lin Siqing's eyes were filled with tears and she couldn't stop, but she didn't dare to stop, for fear of missing the best opportunity to find Shang Yangyang.
"Yan Qing, let Qi'an accompany me to look for Yangyang, and you and your second brother will go ahead to look for her."
"Good mother."
Shang Yanqing looked at Shang Qi'an who was standing beside him. "Qi'an, take good care of your mother."
After Shang Qian'an nodded obediently, they separated and continued to look for Shang Yangyang.
"Shang Yangyang~"
"Princess Zhaoyue~"
"Lu Zizhuo~"
Lin Siqing and her friends met Liu Quan along the way and also met Lu Zongzhen who had also lost his grandson.
Only then did I learn that many families on the street had lost their children today, and Lu Zongzhen’s grandson was just lost.
After learning the news, Shang Yuanshan went directly to the palace with Lu Zongzhen to meet Emperor Yuan Ming.
Emperor Yuan Ming was even more anxious than Shang Yuanshan at this time.
"Eunuch Li, go and pass on the order that the city gates are closed and people entering and leaving must be checked. Also check how many people have left the city tonight, especially the carriages."
"yes."
Emperor Yuan Ming was completely panicked. "Go and call the prince over."
"Shang Yuanshan asked the prince to go out of the city with you, and let Liu Quan lead the imperial guards and patrol soldiers to search the city."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"We must find Yangyang." Seeing the anxious Lu Zongzheng standing aside, Emperor Yuan Ming immediately said, "And Lu Zongzheng's grandson."
"Yes, sir."
As soon as the prince arrived at the imperial study, before he had time to pay his respects, he was dragged out of the palace by Shang Yuanshan.
Lu Zongzhen, who followed him out of the palace, was extremely moved. He had always felt that Emperor Yuan Ming did not care about clan sentiments and still had some grudges against the Third Prince whom he had helped in his past life. But he did not expect that he still cared about him so much.
Lu Zongzhen made up his mind that he would be loyal to Emperor Ming of Yuan.
Emperor Yuan Ming had no idea that the words he said out of pity for the old man would move Lu Zongzhen so much.
