All three sons are married and have children.
The eldest son took his family to work in Jiangzhou. The journey was long and he only came back during the holidays.
The second son was in the military camp, holding the rank of seventh-rank Zhiguo Xiaowei. After marrying his wife, he had two daughters, but due to illness, he could no longer have children.
Among them, the eldest daughter is Jin Yuning.
The second daughter was stolen by human traffickers one month after she was born.
The third son served as a fifth-rank official in the Imperial Clan Court.
Most of the expenses in the house are paid by the third son.
The young boy Jin Yu'an just now is the third brother's child.
He has two older brothers and one older sister.
"Xiao An, what did you just say?"
"The only old hen that lays eggs was stolen and eaten by someone?"
Old Master Jin ignored his sadness and stood up shakily.
That's the only old hen in the house!
"Saint, please wait here for a moment. I, the old man, will be back soon."
Jin Yu'an supported the trembling Master Jin and went to the chicken coop.
He didn't dare to say that it was the little saint who stole it!
An Li's eyelids twitched. Could it be Xinbao?
Judging from the appearance, the old hen is worth a lot!
She glanced at Chun Liu and Chun He, then went over with Master Jin.
Came to a flat vegetable field.
All the roosters flew up into the trees and onto the walls.
He cooed and looked at Mingxin with a wary look.
Mingxin was sitting on the ground with a fire burning beside her and a plucked and bled old hen stuck on a wooden stick.
"You guys, why are you looking at me?"
"Do you want to eat it? This old hen is so delicious."
Mingxin licked her lips and stared at the old hen, which was sizzling with oil.
The adults and children of the Jin family were watching from the side.
There is regret, reluctance, but more of it is "greed".
"Who is it?"
"Who stole my only old hen?"
"You chicken thief, come out here!"
Tutor Zhou ran over hurriedly and smelled a fragrance from a distance.
He swallowed and looked for the chicken thief.
result!
That little ball of milk on the ground is the chicken thief!
"How...how could this be the little saint?" Master Zhou couldn't believe it and stuttered.
I sniffed again, it smelled so good.
An Li also came over and saw that it was indeed Xinbao.
She sighed helplessly, "Xinbao, it's wrong to take other people's things without permission. Why don't you return the roast chicken to the owner?"
Didn’t you see how hungry they are?
Everyone's eyes were glowing green, and they wished they could eat the raw meat alive.
It's really pitiful!
Mingxin said "oh" and refused to listen.
Then he took out five hundred taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the ground.
"Here's the money, for you."
"Just consider it as the money to buy the old hen's life."
Mingxin refused and gave away the roast chicken that she had roasted with great difficulty.
Then just give me the money!
"Xinbao, this is wrong."
An Li wanted to say something, but Master Jin picked up the money on the ground with extremely fast hands.
Put it in your sleeve!
"Saint, the little saint did nothing wrong."
"It's just an old hen. Just eat it and we can raise it again."
Master Jin smiled kindly.
The look of heartache on his face was long gone.
An Li twitched his lips. Is this what it means to change your face?
However, now that it has been said, she has nothing to worry about.
After talking for a while at Jin's house, An Li took his daughter back home.
The Second Prince's Mansion.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that you went to my grandfather's house?"
"Have you seen Grandpa? How is his health?"
Ming Chengnian smiled gently.
In order to avoid suspicion, he hasn't been to his grandparents' house for more than a year.
Relatives have to wait until night to see each other.
An Li thought about it and realized that although the Jin family’s house was a bit poor, they were in good spirits.
"Uncle, don't worry."
"Everything is fine. Everything is fine. Mr. Jin is also in good health."
She said.
Ming Chengnian was relieved, and then he talked about his plan...
Two days later.
Ming Chengnian received the news about the secret guards' investigation and was very excited after reading it.
He took the book and paper and found An Li.
"Sister-in-law, please take a look."
"Chengnian believes that this will be very helpful to our plan."
Ming Chengnian handed the book and paper to An Li.
After An Li read it, she realized that her previous guess was actually correct.
Concubine De had a girl from Xiqi hidden in her harem.
Very few people have seen that woman.
The last time the Yong'an Palace was on fire, the woman put on the clothes of a palace maid and secretly escaped.
It won’t happen that you will be burned to death!
This news was investigated by Ming Chengnian who sent assassins and secret guards.
to this end!
Three more secret guards were injured!
"Second Uncle, this news is really God's help."
"Without further delay, let's go to the palace tonight to take a look."
An Li folded the paper carefully.
"Mother!"
"Second Uncle!"
"I want to go too!"
Mingxin walked in with her short legs and said with a pout.
Every day is so boring, there is nothing fun to do, she is going crazy!
An Li held his daughter on his lap and said, "Xinbao, the palace is in danger. Can you just stay home and sleep well?"
It's not that she doesn't want her daughter to go, but she is afraid that she won't be able to take care of her daughter and she might get hurt.
Ming Xin shook An Li's arm and said, "No, no."
"Second uncle, please try to persuade mother."
She walked while shaking Ming Chengnian's arm, and her second uncle would definitely agree.
