Ling Ying was afraid that Chu Jinghuai would be angry, so she quickly added, "Your Highness, maybe the princess has gotten used to calling that Xu Mama when she went to Yicui Tower these days, so that's why she called her that in her dream."
Ling Feng looked at his good brother with gratitude. He had checked all the mothers in the Chen family, but there was no one who matched the mother in the princess's dream.
It is really not easy to find out the person in Chen Jingxi's dream based on just a few words of dream talk.
Chu Jinghuai did not blame Ling Feng for his incompetence, but asked, "How is the investigation into the orphanage going?"
Ling Ying said, "Your Highness, this orphanage is indeed not simple. They adopt over 500 children every year, but no healthy children appear in public."
"There are less than a hundred children in the courtyard now, but the Ministry of Revenue still allocated 100,000 taels of silver."
Chu Jinghuai tapped the table with his index finger.
Ling Ying continued, "Your Highness, when I was investigating this matter, I also discovered that the child the princess rescued a few days ago had a complicated background."
"What's your background?"
"Those two children arrived in the capital six months ago. According to the information we have found, they should be the children of the Shen family in Jiangdu."
Ling Ying stepped forward and presented an ancient fish symbol in both hands, "This one fell swoop."
Chu Jinghuai took the fish talisman, gently stroked the carvings on it with his fingertips, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
The Shen family in Jiangdu was the largest grain merchant in Daxia. A year ago, the head of the family met with an unexpected disaster. The entire family was massacred, and their two young children disappeared overnight.
"Does anyone know their origins?"
"Probably not." Ling Ying said again, "Your Majesty, please bring them both back."
This is the God of Wealth. With these two, we won’t have to worry about running out of food in future wars.
Chu Jinghuai shook his head and said, "Just protect him secretly."
Ling Ying added, "I didn't expect that the princess would give such a big gift the first time she was plotted against."
Chu Jinghuai smiled and asked, "Is the princess back?"
