Xiao Shunan said, "Yes, but I've never seen what my aunt looked like when she was a child. I've only heard about it from my father and His Royal Highness Prince Qing, who grew up with her."
Ruan Jingye: "Prince Qing also told you that your aunt looks like Ruanruan?"
"Originally, I didn't know about this. My father was afraid that I would act impulsively, so Prince Qing sent someone to summon me yesterday and told me about my aunt." Xiao Shunan now thinks that he has fallen into Prince Qing's trap.
Prince Qing took the opportunity to tell him about this, probably to watch the fight between Prince Jin's Mansion and Prince Xiao's Mansion.
"Ruanruan, we have to go back."
"We are all gone since Xiao Shunan is not here. My father and the others must be very anxious." Zhao Chengqian said.
"Then you guys should go back quickly and come back to play with us later." Old Master Ruan said while stroking his beard.
In Gan State, the people sent by Prince Jin searched for a long time but could not find Xiao Shunan and the two children, and Xiao Shunan did not bring the children back to Prince Jin's Mansion.
Prince Jin immediately sent for Xiao Qinbei to come over.
"Your Highness, could it be that someone took Young Master Xiao and the Crown Prince away together?" Rong Qing asked.
Xiao Qinbei stood with his hands behind his back, walking around the Prince of Jin's study. He said, "Shun'an is quite skilled in martial arts. If such a person really exists, his martial arts skills must be extremely powerful, even to the point of perfection. However, based on what you described, it seems unlikely."
"Otherwise, with Shunan's skills, it's impossible for him to be taken away so easily."
"If this is not the case, then there is only one possibility left. Maybe Young Master Xiao took away the prince and the young doctor." Doctor Song said loudly.
"You're talking nonsense. If I were to let Shun'an take the two children away, why would I do it now? Besides, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin has already agreed to let the little doctor go to Bian Jing with me, so why should I do this?" Xiao Qinbei waved his hand and sat on the pearwood chair.
"Okay, the most urgent thing is to find someone. I have sent people to search Qingzhou City." King Jin glanced at Xiao Qinbei and said.
He reached out and touched the vase beside him, while his other hand rubbed the string of white jade beads.
Seeing that he was calm and composed, Xiao Qinbei was very dissatisfied. "Does the prince already know where the child is?"
King Jin shook his head, "How would I know?"
He just had a guess.
"The last time they came to Qingzhou to assassinate people, they were all assassins. This batch is still assassins, but the secret guards I sent to protect the two children said frankly that the martial arts of those assassins are different from last time."
"I had already sent people to strictly control the situation. Logically speaking, it is impossible for these assassins to enter Qingzhou City, unless they were planted long ago."
Xiao Qinbei curled his lips. "If they want to kill someone, they want to kill me. If they kill the two children and Shunan, wouldn't that make it easier to alert the enemy?"
"Besides, these assassins can't just be maintained by anyone. Even if they were, it would require a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. A high-ranking official could only have a few at most. Plus, their martial arts skills vary. The officials I offended couldn't afford to maintain so many either. Last time, although those assassins were numerous, their martial arts skills weren't that great."
"The assassins they encountered this time were few in number, but clearly highly skilled in martial arts."
Gu Sanlang said, "Your Highness, this assassin might be from Qingzhou City. Besides you two, there is another person in the city who is of noble status and is very likely to have assassins."
"Your Highness Prince Qing, please help the Emperor eliminate the traitors. The Imperial Concubine and Prime Minister Su will definitely escort him. These secret guards and assassins will definitely be indispensable."
Xiao Qinbei frowned. This was indeed possible. "Yesterday, Prince Qing secretly summoned Shun'an."
Now that I think about it, maybe he just wants to stir up trouble between them, and then take advantage of the opportunity...
The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he became. Prince Qing was restless even when he was sick, and he was still trying to stir up trouble!
"Your Highness, I will go to the hospital to find Prince Qing right now." Xiao Qinbei felt a lump in his throat. He hurriedly saluted Prince Jin and was about to turn around and walk out.
The Prince of Jin is such a good father that those who don’t know him would think that the missing people are all his sons and daughters.
The vase beside Prince Jin emitted a golden light, and a golden light shone from the position next to Xiao Qinbei. Xiao Shunan appeared in the study with his two children.
"You...you..." Xiao Qinbei just stood there in a daze, staring at Xiao Shunan and the two children, unable to speak for a long time.
"Godfather, Brother Xiao can go over now." Ruanruan happily told Prince Jin the news while holding Xiao Shunan in one hand and Zhao Chengqian in the other.
"What is going on? Where did you come from?" Xiao Qinbei stared at the two of them intently and swallowed.
He saw it all just now, Ruanruan, the prince and his son suddenly appeared.
Xiao Qinbei, who didn't believe in ghosts and gods in the first place, was overwhelmed. He had never seen such a scene in his life.
"Ruanruan doesn't originally belong to this world. We got to know Ruanruan through this vase. Ruanruan is from another world. The material conditions there are far from what we can compare to in our world. We are connected through this vase." King Jin explained simply.
"So the gods that you people in Qingzhou are telling are real?" Xiao Qinbei asked with his eyes wide open.
King Jin said, "Yes, Qingzhou is what it is today thanks to Ruanruan. To protect Ruanruan, we can only use the gods as an excuse."
"This... There are actually such bizarre things in this world." Xiao Qinbei's entire brain seemed to explode. This incident directly overturned his understanding of the world.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would probably never believe that such a thing could happen.
No wonder both Prince Jin and Ruanruan denied it at the beginning, saying that Ruanruan had nothing to do with his sister.
Xiao Qinbei turned his head and looked at Ruanruan closely, feeling a little lost.
"My Lord, the assassin's secret guard,"
"We have no evidence on Prince Qing's side. Even if we go to him, he will find excuses to prevaricate." Prince Jin said.
"The king will send more people to protect Ruanruan."
Xiao Shunan saluted Prince Jin and came out of the vase. He was calmer than usual and said, "Your Highness, Xiao Shunan would like to stay with the little genius doctor Ruanruan for protection."
"Shun'an has practiced martial arts since he was young. His martial arts skills are still better than those secret guards. Please grant me your favor, Your Highness."
Prince Jin stared at him, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "I agree. You must pack your things today and move into the palace to protect Ruanruan."
Now that things have come to this, Ruanruan will have less trouble if she can get the protection of both Prince Jin's Mansion and Prince Xiao's Mansion at the same time.
Xiao Shunan glanced at his father who was still in a daze, "Your Highness, if there is nothing else, we will withdraw first."
"Dad, let's go back to the inn first."
The King of Jin stopped the two of them again and said, "You must not tell anyone about what happened today. If anyone knows, it will do nothing but harm to Ruanruan."
Xiao Qinbei came back to his senses and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. This matter concerns the country, and we will keep it a secret."
