After watching Lord Gu's carriage go away, Li Mengyun hugged the small bag tightly in her arms and went up to her dormitory on the third floor.

Sitting down on the stool, Li Mengyun took a deep breath and opened the small bag.

The first thing that catches your eye is a concentric knot made of colorful threads intertwined and woven together.

Li Mengyun stretched out her slightly trembling hand and picked up the knot.

It was discovered that there were two small bundles of black hair woven and intertwined on the knot, with a mutton-fat jade pendant strung on the lower end of the rope.

The hair is one thick and one thin, obviously not from the same person.

Isn't this the knot that symbolizes the love between husband and wife? Could it be the knot that my father and mother tied together when they got married?

There was also a jade pendant with a auspicious dragon carved on it. Li Mengyun held it in her hand and felt the warmth to the touch. It was carved from a piece of top-grade Hetian jade.

In addition to these, there was something wrapped in a handkerchief.

Li Mengyun picked it up, removed the handkerchief, and slowly opened it, and found that it was a notebook similar to a diary.

As you open the first page, the dignified and beautiful handwriting comes into view.

Li Mengyun was excited and nervous, and couldn't wait to watch it.

At first I was shocked and incredulous. The more I looked at it, the tighter my brows furrowed, my teeth clenched, and tears welled up in my eyes.

Finally, Li Mengyun finished reading her mother's letter with tears in her eyes.

She clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turned white, and her body trembled slightly.

The anger and grief were difficult to suppress, as if there was a fire burning in my chest that wanted to destroy the world.

Li Mengyun let out a long howl of grief and slammed her fist on the table.

There was a sound of "crack", and the rosewood table cracked.

Li Mengyun kicked the table again, and it made a crackling sound, with pieces flying everywhere and the room in a mess.

With tears in her eyes, Li Mengyun carefully wrapped her mother's things in a bundle and put it in the closet.

Song Ruining and Maizi were drinking tea leisurely in the tea room.

Suddenly, they heard Li Mengyun's roar filled with grief and anger, followed by a series of "crackling" sounds. The two of them hurriedly dropped the teacups in their hands and ran out in a hurry.

I found Li Mengyun running out wiping her tears.

Song Ruining rushed forward, grabbed Li Mengyun, and asked anxiously: "Sister, what happened? Where are you going?"

There was panic in Maizi's eyes, and he felt like the sky was about to fall.

Because in his eyes, Meng Yun has always been so calm and composed.

Now tears are streaming down my face. Something terrible must have happened.

So Maizi also grabbed Li Mengyun's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Mengyun, what's wrong with you? Don't worry, if there is anything, tell me and Prince Song."

Li Mengyun sobbed, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and looked at Song Ruining and Maizi with a pair of red rabbit-like eyes.

With tears in her eyes, a beautiful flower blossomed on her lips, and she whispered, "Nothing, I'll go out for a walk."

Maizi was just about to say, "I'll go with you."

Li Mengyun put her finger to her lips and whispered, "Don't follow me, I want to walk alone."

After saying that, he turned around and strode out, went straight to the stable, rode Qingyun, and rushed out.

Song Ruining and Maizi hurried to the entrance of the escort agency, but they only saw Li Mengyun's back riding away on a horse.

Song Ruining and Maizi looked at each other, feeling very worried, wondering what difficult situation Li Mengyun had encountered.

"Could it be that there is a problem in the relationship between Mengyun and Lord Gu?" Maizi said with a frown.

Song Ruining snapped the fan in his hand shut and shook his head, "That shouldn't be the case. Weren't the two of them in the carriage just now, so affectionate and sweet?"

Song Ruining clapped the fan in his hand gently, and whispered, "Sister's emotional reaction is so strong, I wonder if it has something to do with aunt's disappearance?"

"It's possible." Maizi suddenly came to his senses and nodded in agreement.

Li Mengyun rode on Qingyun and galloped. The sound of horse hooves rang on the bluestone road, fast and hurried.

When they were almost at the city gate, the guards saw from afar a stunningly beautiful woman in white clothes and a red horse, riding a horse towards the city gate.

Just when he was about to step forward to stop him, he remembered that the red horse and white clothes were the standard equipment of Dr. Li.

The guards were delighted and shouted from afar: "Little genius doctor girl, are you going out of the city?"

Li Mengyun kept riding, and just waved to the guards, shouting, "Get out of the way!"

The people who wanted to enter or leave the city gate quickly moved aside.

Li Mengyun didn't look around, shook the reins and rushed out.

The guards and the people who were entering and leaving the city gate watched Li Mengyun's graceful and elegant figure disappear into the distance.

There was a lot of discussion.

"Miss Divine Doctor Li is riding so fast, could it be that there are critically ill patients outside the city waiting for her to treat them?"

"It's possible. If it wasn't for an emergency, the little genius doctor wouldn't be so reckless."

"Yeah."

"Speaking of which, the miraculous doctor girl's horse riding skills are really skillful."

"Nonsense, the little genius doctor girl won first place in the horseback archery competition. Even the head coach of the Beijing City Horseback Archery Camp lost to her. Don't you think she's amazing?"

"That's right. Even the Emperor said that the young genius doctor was an expert in both medicine and martial arts, and he personally arranged for her to marry Gu Zhuangyuan."

There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd.

An old man stroked his beard, his face full of envy: "If you have a daughter, you should give birth to Dr. Li. No matter how many idiots you raise, they are not as good as one finger of Dr. Li."

A sturdy man nearby heard this, turned around and walked out in a hurry.

As he walked, he said, "What the old man said makes sense. I have to go back and have a daughter with my wife."

Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this.

An aunt curled her lips and snorted coldly: "There is only one Little Doctor Li in the world. No matter how hard you try, it will be in vain."

The guards and the people burst out laughing.

The autumn wind was blowing, the weeds on both sides of the official road had withered, and the yellow leaves were falling from the trees, like butterflies, covering the entire ground.

When the wind blows, the leaves swirl and fly up, then spread evenly. The bleak autumn colors reveal endless sadness.

Li Mengyun rode his horse quickly towards Qingfeng Mountain near the outskirts of the city.

She had heard from Aunt Gu that there was a temple on Qingfeng Mountain called Nanshan Temple.

The abbot is a highly accomplished monk and his incense is very effective.

Aunt Gu kept a perpetual lamp in the temple for my mother.

Li Mengyun wanted to go to Nanshan Temple to burn a stick of incense for her mother and add some money for the incense.

At the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, there is a place where horses are looked after for pilgrims going up the mountain.

Li Mengyun entrusted Qingyun here and threw a silver ingot to a little monk.

The little monk reached out and took the silver from Li Mengyun, feeling the heavy silver in his hand.

He was delighted and put his hands together and said, "Don't worry, go up the mountain. I will take good care of your horse for you."
