"...Master is tied up and can't go back to see you. I'm anxious and worried, but you are destined to be rich and noble. I've carefully calculated that your predicament won't last long before someone noble will come to your aid. That person is your wife..." Dongfang Yinzhang's mouth curled up unconsciously as he spoke, "And your four children are destined to be either rich or noble as well!"
Su Xingyi felt a little strange. Tai Zhuo's divination skills were also very impressive. He could only estimate the approximate range and sent many people to investigate before he could pinpoint Xiao Xier's specific whereabouts.
The master gave him the feeling that he knew everything!
"Master, these four children are indeed either rich or noble, and they all have their own abilities, but when I found them, I felt that they were unbelievable and unusual."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
Su Xingyi frowned and thought deeply, "It seems like someone behind the scenes deliberately arranged this."
Dongfang Yinzhang's heart trembled. His disciple actually discovered it?
"How could someone arrange this on purpose? You and these children are destined to be together. You are destined to be their father."
"No! There must be someone behind this. Picking up An Ge'er on Wufeng Mountain wasn't strange, but finding my little Xi'er under the same tree on Wufeng Mountain four years later was a bit strange. My little Xi'er's real identity is the little princess of the Nankun royal family. She's now thousands of miles away in Nankun. How could she appear on Wufeng Mountain and be picked up by me as my daughter?"
Oriental Seal was shocked!
Xingyi actually knew the little girl's true identity!
Doesn't that mean the true identities of the four children are known? !
Xiao Lingyu, who came back from the dead, is indeed not simple!
"...And finding the second and third child was also strange. I didn't intend to take the route back to the village that passed by the mass grave, but a strong wind blew up halfway, and somehow I ended up at the mass grave and found the children! Someone must have orchestrated this!"
"Then maybe it's as you think. Someone made special arrangements behind the scenes." Dongfang Yinzhang picked up the teacup nervously and sipped it slowly, not daring to look directly into Su Xingyi's eyes.
The person behind this is himself!
If the disciple knew that when he picked up the boss, he would just hide nearby and watch without helping.
I'm really worried that my disciple won't want him as his master!
Su Xingyi looked at him suspiciously, thinking that Lao Da and Xiao Xier were picked up near the place where his master taught him martial arts and literacy.
It was already deep in Wufeng Mountain, and no one dared to go there.
"Master, the person behind this isn't you, is he?"
"How could that be?" Dongfang Yinzhang was startled, but he said righteously, "If Master wanted to give you a child to raise, he would have just given it to you. Why hide? I was fleeing back then, so how could I have the time to give you a child?"
Su Xingyi thought it made sense. If his master really wanted him to raise the child, he would have just given it to him.
"...If someone really arranged it, he will definitely show up. We just need to wait for him."
Only he knew the murderer behind the persecution of the little girl, and the Crown Princess could not hurt her for the time being.
When Xingyi returns to his roots and takes back what belongs to him, he will appear again to help the little girl ascend to the throne!
"Master, what you said makes sense. This person shouldn't be a bad person. Let's wait for him to show up."
"Master." Bai Yi knocked lightly on the door. "Lunch is ready in the kitchen. When will it be served?"
Su Xingyi looked at Dongfang Yinzhang and said, "My cousin and Xiaojiu are coming over to have dinner together."
"Bai Yi, go and keep watch downstairs. Serve the meal when the Crown Prince and his companions arrive."
A quarter of an hour later, the uncle and nephew arrived at Zhaixing Tower, followed by two guards, including Yan Xiaosi, who was holding a bunch of boxes of different sizes in his arms.
"Greetings, Your Highnesses." Dongfang Yinzhang bowed.
"No need to be polite!"
"Cousin, how is it? Has Mr. Dongfang figured out your master's whereabouts?"
Dongfang Yinzhang quickly gave Su Xingyi a look, signaling him not to say anything.
"My master is in Beiyi. Where exactly is he? We need to enter Beiyi to figure out his whereabouts."
Shangguan Yunxiao turned to Dongfang Yinzhang and said, "Tomorrow, your cousin will be leaving for Beiyi. Mr. Dongfang, please accompany your cousin to Beiyi. If you have any needs, please feel free to ask."
"Your Highness, I have a liking for Young Master Su and would like to go to Beiyi with him tomorrow."
After lunch, Su Xingyi returned to the palace and was called away alone by Shangguan Mochen.
"Grandfather, are they?"
Su Xingyi looked at Nie Ying in front of him and the seventeen guards in formal attire with solemn expressions behind him, and couldn't help but ask.
"They will be your personal guards from now on, responsible for protecting you and at your disposal!"
"No! You need more people around you to protect you. Your grandson can take care of himself!"
Shangguan Mochen patted his shoulder and said, "Good boy, Grandfather knows that you are filial. Grandfather has many guards around him, so you can accept them without worry. Otherwise, if you return to Beiyi, you will have no one to protect you. I will not be at ease with you going back."
"Okay, then my grandson will accept them."
"Nie Ying!"
"I'm here!"
"From now on, Prince Shun will be your master. Follow his orders and protect him!"
"yes!"
At night, the family gathered together again and happily had a sumptuous family dinner.
After the meal, Lan called Su Xingyi into the inner hall and handed him a large box of jewellery. "This is what your grandmother prepared for your wife. I wonder if she likes it?"
"Grandma, these are all picked by you personally. Xiaoyu will definitely like them."
"Alas, grandma doesn't even know what your wife looks like?"
"When my grandson returns to Beiyi, I'll send her portrait to you. Xiaoyu is a very smart, gentle, and kind woman. You will definitely like her when you meet her!"
Seeing that he was smiling, Mrs. Lan thought that her granddaughter-in-law was indeed as she said.
After all, she was willing to give birth to a child for Xingyi when he was still a commoner. It seems that she really loves her grandson.
"Okay, okay, grandma not only wants to see the portrait of your daughter-in-law, but also the portraits of the four children!"
"Okay! I'll send it over when the painting is finished."
The next day, Shangguan Mochen stood high on the gate tower of the imperial palace. He only came down from the tower after he could no longer see Su Xingyi's convoy through the telescope.
"Go, protect Prince Shun..."
Shangguan Mochen was worried, so he sent another eighteen secret guards.
"We also need to carefully investigate Mr. Dongfang's identity. If there is anything unusual, report back immediately."
The commander of the secret guards said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Princess, Master Wen's reference documents and relevant certificates have arrived."
Xiao Lingyu glanced at the document and put it away.
"Master Qi, is there any information about the prince's whereabouts?"
"Not yet, but there should be news soon. Princess, please take good care of yourself."
Xiao Lingyu held her belly and said sadly, "Now the prince is missing. I'm worried that he's met with an accident..."
"No! Princess, don't let your imagination run wild. The prince is blessed by fate and will definitely return safely! I will go back and expand the search area. I will definitely find the prince."
Qi Lianli left, and Xiao Xier walked out from the inner room, "Mother, our play won't last long. Daddy is on his way back..."
