The Third Prince was well aware of his subordinate's style. He just shook his head and walked towards the palace gate with his things.
Lin Chunhuan didn't expect that someone would come to visit so late at night. Unfortunately, Xiao Cen was not in the palace today, so she couldn't avoid him even if she wanted to.
Fortunately, she knew that Dong Ling'er would come back today, so she waited for her before going to bed. Otherwise, even if the king of heaven came, he would not be able to pull her out of the quilt!
"Does the prince have any dealings with the Divine Doctor Valley? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
After handing the already sleeping little Xiao Mo to the nurse, Lin Chunhuan turned around and took the thick cloak from Qiu Shuang's hand. "Did the prince have any connections with the Divine Doctor Valley in the past?"
"Why haven't I heard of any contact before?"
The butler who delivered the message also shook his head upon hearing this. "It seems that they don't have any relationship. The prince has always had a non-provoking and non-familiar attitude towards people from the martial arts world. In all these years, he has never seen anyone from the martial arts world come to his house."
Before Lin Chunhuan could figure out what was going on, he saw the third prince standing by the fire in the main hall.
Normally, braziers are not used in places where guests are entertained, but the weather this year is really weird. Summer is about to begin, but the heavy snow shows no sign of stopping.
Large numbers of disaster victims poured into the capital, and requests for help came from all over the country. The court was worried and busy.
Otherwise, how could Xiao Cen be willing to leave his wife and children behind and not return home so late at night?
The weather was unusually cold, and without a brazier, people couldn't stay in the house at all. Lin Chunhuan had only walked a short distance and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the brazier.
"Greetings, Princess."
The Third Prince performed a conventional salute.
As Lin Chunhuan nodded slightly, he also looked at the young man in front of him.
To be honest, this person was a good-looking man, clean and tidy, with a pleasant smell of medicinal herbs on his body, but judging from his face, he was a face similar to Xiao Cen's that I had seen many times before.
The person in front of him looked like he was just eating some light porridge and side dishes. He was pretty enough, but not stunning.
There was one thing Xiao Jinan guessed right. Lin Chunhuan died early. When she died in her previous life, the emperor had already brought the third prince and his mother back to the palace from the people and given them a status.
But as an abandoned woman, she had no chance to meet him.
She also had no idea that if the prince failed to ascend the throne, the person who would take the first place would be the person standing in front of her at this moment. She only treated the person in front of her as an ordinary person in the world.
However, just like the mentality of most people in the world, no one can guarantee that they will not be troubled by difficult and complicated diseases one day, so unless it is absolutely necessary, they will not easily offend a person with excellent medical skills.
"What is your name?"
Lin Chunhuan spoke gently without caring about the man's lack of etiquette.
The Third Prince nodded again and said, "It's better not to mention my humble name. If the Princess doesn't mind, you can call me Ah Qing."
Apparently, he's someone who doesn't even want to reveal his real name.
Lin Chunhuan lowered his eyes slightly, not caring about Aqing's defensiveness. "I heard from the housekeeper that Master Aqing is from the Divine Doctor Valley."
"As far as I know, our Pingyang Palace doesn't seem to have any dealings with the Divine Doctor Valley on weekdays. I wonder why Master Aqing came to visit so late at night..."
Aqing also knew that the rescue could not be delayed, so he took out Dong Ling'er's cloak and food box immediately. The moment Lin Chunhuan saw the things, his face changed.
The cloaks were prepared by her personally for Dong Ling'er and Qiu Shuang, one for each of them, and they were embroidered with wintersweet and chrysanthemum respectively. How could she not recognize them?
"This happened suddenly, so I'll keep it short."
He omitted the part about how he had been to Qiang Garden and met Xiao Jinan, and only talked about the beginning when Dong Ling'er mistook him for a homeless man and ended when the man was kidnapped.
Ah Qing frowned slightly. "I have already ordered my guards to chase him along the way. Human life is at stake. Please, Princess, make a decision as soon as possible."
"housekeeper!"
Without even having time to respond to Ah Qing's words, Lin Chunhuan immediately called the housekeeper in and said, "Call the fastest soldier among the palace soldiers to inform the prince of this matter. The rest of you, all get up and wait in the front yard!"
The butler responded and ran away quickly.
Only then did Lin Chunhuan take a deep breath and bow deeply in the direction of Aqing, but he was pushed aside by the person in front of him, so it could only be considered a half-reception.
Aqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Seriously speaking, he should have called the young Princess Pingyang in front of him Aunt Wang. Accepting courtesy from an elder for no reason would shorten his lifespan!
"I'm sorry to have been embarrassed by the turmoil in your mansion."
Lin Chunhuan was still trying to maintain a smile, but she was already panicking inside. In her heart, she had already regarded Qiu Shuang and Dong Ling'er as her own sisters.
She could easily sever ties with the bastard Lin family, but that didn't mean she didn't yearn for family affection.
If something really happened to Dong Ling'er...
Lin Chunhuan didn't dare to think about it at all, but she couldn't come up with any practical ideas.
It's not just because she's too concerned, it's also because she's never been taught or seen anything like this before, so she has no idea how to deal with such a thing.
Ah Qing shook his head. "That girl is kind, and good people should be rewarded."
"I know this is very abrupt, but..." Lin Chunhuan pursed her lips, "Although I have sent people to invite him, I don't know when the prince will be back. We can't delay saving people for even a moment."
"If possible, all the people in the palace will be under your command. Could you please..."
Seeing Lin Chunhuan's embarrassment, Aqing looked at her with some doubt. Logically speaking, a woman who could marry into the royal palace as a princess and was so favored by Prince Pingyang should not be so ignorant.
But the person in front of me really looked a little panicked and at a loss.
Fortunately, although he was panicked, he had self-awareness and did not make any messy orders.
Ah Qing thought a lot, but it only lasted a moment. He responded without shirking his responsibility, "It is an honor to have the princess's trust. I will do my best to bring that girl back."
Originally, Aqing came to the palace to ask for manpower.
There were more than two or three people in that carriage alone. If they dared to rob people at the gate of the palace, they must have accomplices behind them. Even if they wanted to save people, there were only two of them, and they might even get themselves killed.
Aqing thinks he is a good person. At least he never kills innocent people. Sometimes he will save a few people when he encounters a problem. But no matter what the situation is, he will not let himself get into trouble.
He had already made up his mind before entering the door. If the palace wanted to rescue people, he would ask for help. If the palace didn't care and refused to send anyone, he would ask for help.
