Chapter 189 Paper Cranes

Lin Liuyi had no idea that the pitiful little girl she thought she was talking about had once again accurately pierced the hearts of her parents who favored sons over daughters. Right now, she was comforting Liu Mingyue.

"Xiaoliu, don't cry. Tell me what happened?"

Lin Liuyi was just about to deliver some pine nuts to Liu Mingyue when she noticed something was wrong with her on the other end of the video call. She looked dejected and seemed to be crying.

What's going on? Is there a mother-in-law/daughter-in-law conflict?

Liu Mingyue sniffed and said in a tearful voice, "Liu Yi, my husband has disappeared."

What?

"What happened? How could someone disappear?" Lin Liuyi didn't understand what had happened.

"In winter, heavy snow fell on the border, but with the fire pits, the soldiers in the camp and the people inside and outside the city all made it through. My husband even said that this was the warmest winter the border had ever experienced. After the snow melted in spring, we began to plant cotton according to your information. But at this time, news suddenly came that Tartars were harassing the villages outside the city. My husband thought of leading troops to the villages outside the city to take a look, as spring planting is a major event and cannot be affected by the Tartars. Who knew that only three days after he left, a soldier brought news that they had encountered Tartars, and my husband was wounded in the battle and had disappeared without a trace."

As Liu Mingyue spoke, she couldn't help but shed tears again.

What's going on? Lin Liuyi looked at the distressed Liu Mingyue and felt something was wrong. This little Liu had never been this fragile before. If she's missing, go find her! Why are you crying here?

Thinking of this, Lin Liuyi quickly reassured the other person, "Have you sent someone to look for them?"

“My father-in-law has already sent his soldiers to search, but it’s been a month and there’s still no news. I don’t know when we’ll be able to find my husband!”

Thinking of this, Liu Mingyue couldn't stop her tears from flowing.

Lin Liuyi was anxious too, but there was nothing she could do. She tentatively suggested, "Why don't you go find him yourself? Waiting at home isn't a solution, and you'll just start overthinking things."

Upon hearing Lin Liuyi's words, Liu Mingyue wiped away her tears and immediately gathered her people to go out and find her husband.

Lin Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the decisive Liu Mingyue. Yes, this was the Liu Mingyue she knew.

That crying woman just now doesn't resemble her at all!

Lin Liuyi hurriedly asked Princess Mingyue to make Liu Mingyue an antique-style close-fitting soft armor, and also helped prepare some supplies suitable for military marches.

"Mingyue, what are you doing?"

"Mother, I want to go find my husband myself!" Liu Mingyue, having regained her composure, was exceptionally determined.

“Mingyue, I’m saddened by Heng’s disappearance, but your father-in-law has already sent people to look for him! How can a weak woman like you go out like this?” Liu Mingyue’s mother-in-law thought her daughter-in-law was a good person and always cared about her son, but she hadn’t forgotten Liu Mingyue’s identity. What if something happened to Liu Mingyue again?

"Mother, you forgot I have guards. With them protecting me, I'll be fine. My husband's fate is unknown, I must find him!"

"Mingyue, are they those Tartars..."

"Mother, I know you're worried about me. But I'm also worried about my husband. I don't want to keep waiting in the mansion. I want to go find him myself, alive or dead!" Liu Mingyue clenched her fists, her eyes resolute.

Since Liu Mingyue had already said so much, her mother-in-law couldn't stop her anymore. After all, she also felt sorry for her son, so she let Liu Mingyue leave the city.

Upon returning from the military camp, Liu Mingyue's father-in-law angrily berated her mother-in-law, calling her foolish!

After leaving the city, Liu Mingyue headed straight for the place where her husband had disappeared. The group traveled swiftly and finally arrived at the vicinity of the place where he had disappeared.

The place was a mess, clearly the site of a fierce battle.

Liu Mingyue searched everywhere, not letting go of any clue.

"Reporting, Your Highness! There's a cave ahead!"

After listening to the guard's words, Liu Mingyue hurriedly arrived at the cave where she had discovered it.

She cautiously entered the cave with her guards. A faint smell of blood filled the air, and her heart suddenly raced.

Unfortunately, they searched the cave thoroughly but found no one.

“Princess, there is blood here. Someone must have been hiding here.”

Liu Mingyue understood what the guards meant; she guessed that her husband had hidden here after being injured.

Since there was no one in the cave, they continued their search along the path.

It's been a month. Liu Mingyue and her guards have been searching outside for a month.

After a month of living in the open and enduring hardship, Liu Mingyue no longer looks like a lady from a respectable family, but they still haven't found anyone.

"Liu Yi, do you think he's really dead?" Liu Mingyue was a little desperate.

Lin Liuyi looked at Liu Mingyue across from him, whose cheeks were sunken and whose face was full of fatigue. He wondered if it was since she got married that the once cheerful Liu Mingyue seemed to have changed.

“You didn’t find his body, right? Then he’s still alive. Maybe he’s hiding in some small mountain village,” Lin Liuyi comforted her.

"Then why doesn't he come back? He could at least send me a message!" Liu Mingyue held back her tears.

During this time, she had been secretly crying behind closed doors, but in front of the guards and nannies, she had to be strong and direct them to continue searching for people.

"If I can't find anyone by tomorrow, I'll go back to the city."

It's been a month, and they've searched everywhere around here. Perhaps her husband really is gone.

Lin Liuyi was at a loss for what to do; she wasn't good at comforting people.

The next day, Liu Mingyue and her men still found nothing, and she was ready to give up.

"No, no, keep it. I got you a Tracking Crane from Long Mingyue. Just let it smell anything that has been tainted by the other person's scent, and it will lead you to that person."

Lin Liuyi was quite busy after hanging up the video call yesterday. First, he asked Princess Mingyue to get the missing person machine from there, but the system couldn't transmit the message at all.

She hurriedly went to bother Carter again, and Avalin kindly offered her tracking dog, but unfortunately, the dog seemed to be a magical creature and could not be used to transmit the message.

In the end, he could only go to Long Mingyue, who then gave Lin Liuyi a paper crane.

It is said that this paper crane can only be used once, and it will spontaneously combust after the person is found.

Okay, whatever, as long as it's useful.

Lin Liu hurriedly sent the paper crane to Liu Mingyue. In fact, Liu Mingyue had also thought about asking the immortal for help, but she didn't dare. She was afraid of angering the immortal. She also thought that if she found her husband, she would like to exchange some medicine with the immortal.

Unexpectedly, Lin Liuyi helped her get it, and Liu Mingyue was extremely grateful.

She quickly followed Lin Liuyi's instructions and placed the gifts her husband had given her onto the paper crane.

The next moment, the paper crane shook its wings and seemed to come alive, flying off in one direction.
