The disfigured prince's time-traveling concubine

"What?" Song Lin slammed the dining table, causing the dishes and chopsticks on the table to creak.

"I have searched the second young lady's yard, but I couldn't find her. However, I found a letter on the desk by the window." Fu Ma handed the letter to Song Lin with trembling hands. If it were normal, Song Lin would be too lazy to read the dog-like handwriting, but now it was related to the safety of his precious daughter, so he didn't care much and unfolded the letter and read it anxiously.

Parents: Li'er has been accepting your teachings since he was a child. You treat him like a treasure. I am very happy. But I didn't do anything wrong, but my elder brother beat me. I am very upset. I will go for a few days to relax. Please don't worry. ＿Li'er stays.

"Master, what did Li'er write?" Mrs. Song asked hurriedly.

"Butler, tell everyone in the General's Mansion to go out and look for the Second Miss. Judging from the traces, she shouldn't have gone far." Song Lin ordered calmly.

"Yes, sir!" The butler left quickly.

"Humph!" Song Lin slammed the letter onto the table, looking coldly at Song Yuntian who was about to get up to look for someone, "You little bastard! Why did you punish Li'er?"

"Dad, this is a long story. Let's find Li'er first." Song Yuntian said self-reproachfully. If Li'er made any mistakes, he would never forgive himself. The general's mansion was in chaos, while Song Yunli was walking around the streets of the capital with a small bag on her back. She felt very sad. She had a very wide network of contacts back then, but now she didn't even have anyone to turn to. She was really a phoenix in trouble, no better than a chicken!

It's not that she didn't think about going over to seek refuge with Qing Mo, but the Xiao Mansion was too close to the General's Mansion, and it would be easy for her to be found by her elder brother. Because she was too absorbed in her thoughts, she didn't see the person coming from the front, and she bumped into him directly. "Woo!" Song Yunli covered her nose with her teeth bared.

"Are you okay?" A gentle voice came from above my head.

Song Yunli covered her nose and looked up. She was stunned for a moment, even forgetting the pain. The man in front of her was dressed in black brocade. Although he was not as tall as her elder brother, he was not short. His fair face was mostly covered by a silver mask, and only his smooth chin was visible. Seeing Song Yunli in a daze, the man couldn't help but chuckled and walked around her and left.

Coming back to her senses, Song Yunli suddenly turned around and stared at the receding figure in a daze. Why did she feel familiar with the masked man just now, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn't remember his name, so she had to give up in the end. After walking slowly for half a day, Song Yunli was already hungry, so she found a good restaurant and walked in. The waiter was stunned. Whose rich family's daughter is this? She is only eight or nine years old. How can they let her go out alone?

"Brother Waiter, please give me a plate of jade shrimps, a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings, and a plate of vinegar broccoli." After saying that, she walked towards the innermost seats of the restaurant without caring about the waiter's reaction. She didn't want to sit in the most conspicuous position and wait to be caught.

"Okay, my dear sir, please wait for a moment."

The process of waiting for the meal was long. Song Yunli supported her chin with both hands out of boredom, and her big eyes like crystal grapes moved around to look at the surrounding environment, but unexpectedly her attention was attracted by two scholar-like men at the next table.

"Brother Wu, do you know that a ridiculous thing happened in the capital these two days?" another man asked jokingly.

"Brother Yang, what you are talking about is the marriage arranged by the current emperor for the Ninth Prince. It is indeed ridiculous." The man surnamed Wu responded.

"However, the Ninth Prince is the most beloved son of the Emperor. He is incomparable to the Crown Prince and other princes. Let alone giving him a nine-year-old girl, I'm afraid the Emperor would not be willing to give him even his own concubine." The man surnamed Yang laughed and talked. His voice was even louder than before, and he seemed to be drunk.

The man surnamed Wu quickly made a gesture to keep quiet and whispered, "Are you going to die? How can you say such treasonous words in such a noisy place? If someone with ulterior motives hears it, we will have no chance of continuing our official career."
