Who is this child?

"I walked in. The servants in your manor are really useless. They can't even guard the gate properly. When I came in, he just hid there trembling with fear." Zhu Hanyu said with a look of disgust.

However, Zhu Hanyu turned to look at Xu Heming, who was anxious to find Xu Qingshi.

He didn't like the fierce old woman here.

"Where did this wild brat come from, daring to interfere in the affairs of my Zhou family?" Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhou disregarded Zhu Hanyu's status and pointed at his nose, launching into a tirade of abuse.

"How dare you! How dare you point your finger at my master and insult him like that?" Upon hearing this, the little eunuch standing to the side reprimanded Old Madam Zhou.

The old lady Zhou, who was originally full of anger, was stunned when she heard this voice.

She felt something was off about the sound.

They look just like the eunuchs in the imperial palace.

Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou stared intently at Zhu Hanyu and the little eunuch beside him.

Could this person be from the palace?

"Uncle An, please take me to find Qingshi quickly," Zhu Hanyu said, holding Xu Heming's hand.

"Let's go!" Xu Heming sighed. He wanted to go back to Tingyun Courtyard to check if there was anything he had overlooked.

"Uncle An, didn't I tell you to bring me here to find Qingshi? Why did you bring me here?" Zhu Hanyu asked, puzzled, looking at the empty courtyard that had been burned to ashes.

“During the Qing Dynasty, it might be inside.” Xu Heming looked at the ashes again, his eyes filled with pain.

If Xu Qingshi really died in this fire.

He probably will never forgive himself in his entire life.

"Your Highness, we haven't found the Heir Apparent." Qingsong rushed over as soon as he saw Xu Heming approaching, and said sadly.

At this moment, Qingsong's face and hands were covered in black ash, clearly indicating that he had just gone down to find someone himself.

"Your Highness, I believe that Qingyuan must have taken the young master away, as no remains were found at the scene," Qingchuan said as he rushed over.

"Send more people out to search," Xu Heming said again, looking at the ruins.

"Uncle An, everything is alright during the Qing Dynasty, right?" Zhu Hanyu asked Xu Heming with red eyes.

Xu Heming himself was unsure whether his son was alright.

At this moment, the old lady anxiously called Zhou Changfeng over.

"Mother, what do you need me for?" Zhou Changfeng was really tired. Prince An and his men were still at the Zhou family's house.

It's somewhat unreasonable that his master isn't in front of Prince An.

"Tell me, is that brat Xu Qingshi really gone?" Old Madam Zhou asked again, somewhat uncertainly.

“Mother, the manor is in complete chaos right now, please don’t make things worse. The child hasn’t been found yet, and Prince An’s men are still searching at Tingyun Courtyard,” Zhou Changfeng replied helplessly.

“There’s a child with Prince An. Go and see if that child is Xu Qingshi.” Old Madam Zhou still felt that Prince An had deceived her. The child looked to be the same age as Xu Qingshi.

How could it not be Xu Qingshi?

And that servant boy who spoke like a eunuch—Madam Zhou felt that all of this was a trick played on him by Prince An.
