Muran Jin stared at the man lying on the bed, unsure what expression to wear.
As the Regent of the Great Lan Kingdom, she dedicated herself to state affairs, only to find herself pursued by t...
"Your Highness?"
"It's nothing, just some sand in my eyes."
Xiao Linzi: "..." Your Highness is thinking of becoming the Regent.
In Da Cheng, His Highness always regarded the Regent as his savior, and later treated him like an older brother.
It's certainly sad.
None of them expected that the refined and gentle man would leave this world so suddenly...
"Let's go to the First Restaurant. It's a business owned by the Regent. Now that he's gone, we should still patronize his business."
Jin Nanzhou's eyes narrowed slightly. "Alright."
"Young Master".
Nan Fengyi came to see this No. 1 Restaurant. He heard that many shops in the capital belonged to his mother.
After her mother faked her death and left, the business was handed over to the person in charge, who is a very mysterious behind-the-scenes boss.
Now it has all been changed to a mysterious businesswoman, Madam Jin.
It's still my mother's business.
The shopkeeper looked at the young master with a smile, "Young master."
Nan Fengyi nodded and went to the fifth floor of the restaurant. The restaurant had a total of six floors, making it the largest restaurant in the capital.
Nan Yue followed beside him, saying, "I heard that some people are discussing something here today."
"They are all people of high status in the imperial court."
Nan Fengyi hummed in agreement. All he needed to do now was to convince his adoptive father of his identity as the grandson of the Prince of Zhenbei.
After he has investigated the matter thoroughly, he can make his own next steps.
...
"Miss, a letter from the young master."
Looking at the handwriting, Murong Jin gave a helpless smile.
But it's not bad. For a three-year-old, being able to write and recognize characters is already quite a talent.
[Mother, I've reunited with my sister. My new identity is my maternal grandfather's grandson. My name is Murong Yi...]
Yi Liu glanced at him and asked, "What is the young master trying to do?"
Murong Jin had already received Jin Liu's message before this.
Xiao Yi has already met with Di Junlan.
Furthermore, that man wanted to adopt Xiao Yi as his son, as the next heir to the throne…
Although the two little ones never mentioned the role of father to her, they had been eavesdropping on the conversation between the father and son next door after the neighbor's child returned from school...
They longed for a father, and naturally desired one in their hearts.
Moreover, he was also thinking of her.
From the perspective of the two little ones, only a man they like can be their father... stepfather.
perhaps.
It's time to gradually get to know Di Junlan.
At least, in her 30 years of life, the only man who ever made her heart flutter was Di Junlan.
A man like a dog.
"Before I go to the capital, I need to arrange my new identity."
More than three years have passed. If Di Junlan still loves her, perhaps she can allow the children to reunite with him.
If Di Junlan could still make her like him again, she wouldn't mind giving him a chance...
The act of faking his death was for his own growth and for his future freedom...
The regent is dead; the one who survived is Murong Jin, an ordinary citizen.
Yi Liu: "What is your new identity?"
Murong Jin closed the letter and looked towards the capital. "Madam Jin."
...
Food for children was prepared on the table. Nan Fengyi asked Nan Yue to prepare a portion and pack it up to take back to her younger sister.
...
“Brother, I won’t go out with you. You said I look like Father. He controls the whole capital. If someone recognizes me, there will be a lot of trouble.”
"If I'm exposed, my mother will be found out, and that will affect her life."
“My grandfather’s mansion is very big, and I can stay here too.”
...
Nan Fengyi thought about what his sister had told him. Although he wanted to take her out to play, the most important thing right now was to find out the answers to their questions...
No one in the capital knew that the Prince of Zhenbei had a grandson, so he could travel very easily now.
Nan Yue whispered a few words in Nan Fengyi's ear, "It's the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Director of the Ceremonial Affairs Department of the Ministry of Rites."
Nan Fengyi wasn't very clear about these official positions. Nan Yue explained that the Vice Minister of Revenue was responsible for assisting the Minister of Revenue in handling the country's financial affairs, including taxation, corvée labor, and fiscal revenue and expenditure.
There is also the Yizhi Qingli Si, who is in charge of auspicious rites, military rites, and the management of education and imperial examinations.
"By the way, young master, the imperial examination is held every three years... In two months, the scholars will be heading to the capital for the examination..."
Nan Fengyi knew about the imperial examinations; after all, the teachers taught them to study, and the ultimate goal was to take the exams in the capital.
"Listen to what they have to say."
Nan Yue responded, "Yes."
...
"Once we've finalized the list of candidates, we can simply replace those from distant rural areas."
"And this one, it's a question that the exam setter guessed..."
...
Nan Fengyi had a somewhat gloomy expression on his face, while Nan Yue rubbed the tip of her nose.
These two people hold high-ranking official positions, yet they were actually up to some petty theft.
Leaking exam questions, replacing test takers...
"Young Master?"
"It's alright. Send someone to investigate and collect evidence before sending it to the palace."
Nan Yue: "Who are you looking for? They have nothing to do with the palace anymore."
"Jinyue".
Nan Yue: "Okay." Jin Yue was originally a general, but she resigned because of Miss's matter.
...
After learning about this, Nan Fengyi prepared to leave the restaurant. Just as he was walking down the stairs, he heard a voice.
