Han Ying told the truth and was willing to be punished by the emperor in order to resign from his position as Mr. Liang Wangwu.

How could the emperor lose face and really punish Han Ying? It was originally a good thing, but it ended up like this. The emperor felt ashamed, so he reprimanded Chu Han and drove him out of the palace.

The matter of selecting a martial arts master for Chu Han ultimately came to nothing. Nan Yue later spoke for Chu Han many times, but without exception, she was rejected by the emperor.

King Liang, who had originally become famous because of the spring ploughing, fell into decline again like a flash in the pan.

As the days passed, all forces seemed to fall silent as if they were speaking.

Chu Xuan stayed in the mansion all day, taking care of Lu Yanluo and the children, enjoying his leisure time. On the contrary, the two younger children, Chu Yao and Chu Yuan, could not stay still and kept clamoring to go out and play.

That day, Chu Xuan finally couldn't stand the noise anymore and let the two children out. With Shen He protecting them in secret, he didn't have to worry about the children's safety.

In the evening, it was almost time for dinner and the two children had not returned yet. Lu Yanluo became a little anxious, so she changed her clothes and went out to look for them.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the courtyard, I ran into two children covered in dust.

No, to be exact, there should be three children. Chu Yao was holding Chu Yuan with his left hand, and a little boy was standing next to Chu Yuan.

"Mom!" When Chu Yuan saw Lu Yanluo, he quickly broke free from the little boy's hand, hugged Lu Yanluo, and said happily: "Mom, Yuanyuan made a new friend today, his name is Xiaobao."

Chu Yuan hurriedly introduced his friends to Lu Yanluo.

Xiaobao was young, with a chubby face and was particularly lovable. Lu Yanluo squatted down, looked at Xiaobao, and smiled kindly: "Hello, Xiaobao, I am the mother of Yuanyuan and Yaoyao."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bao hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed to Lu Yanluo in a proper manner, very politely saying, "Hello, Auntie."

Lu Yanluo was really touched by the cuteness of Xiaobao, this child pretending to be an adult. She raised her hand, touched Xiaobao's head, and invited him into the house.

After entering the mansion, Lu Yanluo remembered to ask about Xiaobao's identity.

Xiaobao is chubby and cute, with fair skin, and the clothes he wears are all made of top-quality natural silk. His parents must be either rich or noble.

"Yaoyao." Lu Yanluo asked her eldest son, "How did you get to know Xiaobao? Whose family is he from?"

Chu Yao replied, "This is Xiaobao that Yuanyuan and I picked up on the street."

"Pictured it up?" Lu Yanluo was surprised and turned to look at Xiaobao, wondering whose child it was who was lost.

"Xiaobao." Lu Yanluo was afraid of scaring Xiaobao, so she called softly, "Auntie wants to ask you, do you know where daddy and mommy live?"

Lu Yanluo felt that this child was mature for his age and seemed extremely intelligent, so he would definitely remember where he lived.

But Xiaobao unexpectedly shook his head and whispered, "Xiaobao doesn't remember."

Lu Yanluo couldn't bear it, and quickly comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay. Xiaobao, do you still remember what your father and mother are called?"

Xiaobao shook his head again. Lu Yanluo felt extremely helpless. Did she just pick up a child for nothing?

In order to understand the situation, Lu Yanluo had no choice but to call Shen He to find out the reason.

It turns out that Xiaobao was really picked up by Chu Yao and Chu Yuan.

Two hours ago, Chu Yao and Chu Yuan were strolling on Zhuque Street. The two children were curious about everything they saw and looked around.

When they came to a stall selling steamed buns, Chu Yuan insisted on eating meat buns, so Chu Yao had no choice but to take Chu Yuan to buy some.

Just then, the two met Xiaobao, who was unable to walk in front of the bun stall because he was hungry.

Chu Yuan took the bun and was about to open his mouth to take a bite, but his eyes were not distracted and he just saw the pitiful Xiaobao.

Xiaobao's eyes lit up and he stared at the buns, obviously wanting to eat them.

Chu Yuan was kind-hearted and immediately felt compassion. He walked over and handed the bun to Xiao Bao, tilting his head and asking innocently, "Do you want to eat?"

Xiaobao was very hungry and of course wanted to eat, so he nodded without thinking. Seeing this, Chu Yuan gave the bun to Xiaobao and turned back to buy one for himself.

Afterwards, he took Chu Yao and Xiao Bao to stand together, and the three children ate the buns in their hands.

After that, Xiaobao started to follow Chu Yuan around, and the three children quickly became familiar with each other.

As it was getting dark, Chu Yao was about to take Chu Yuan back home. When the two children said goodbye to Xiaobao, they found out that Xiaobao was lost and couldn't find his home at all.

Afterwards, Chu Yuan naturally brought him back to the Night King's Palace.

After hearing the whole story, Lu Yanluo looked at Xiaobao again. She intuitively felt that this child must be from a prominent family in the capital. After thinking for a moment, she ordered, "Go and investigate if any of the officials in the capital have a child who is missing."

Shen He followed the order to investigate, and he actually found a family whose child was missing. It was the family of Kong Chenyang, the historian of the Hanlin Academy.

It is said that the search for the young master of the Kong family has started in Beijing since this morning, and now everyone in the Kong family is as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

After receiving the news, Lu Yanluo suddenly had an idea and called Xiaobao over to ask, "Xiaobao, do you know what your last name is?"

Xiaobao thought about it and remembered: "Xiaobao's surname is Kong. My mother always calls me Kong Xiaobao. My surname is Kong."

Lu Yanluo was overjoyed when she heard this. It really was the lost child of the Kong family. "That's great, Xiaobao. Auntie has found your home. Your parents are anxiously looking for you. Auntie will take you back now."

Lu Yanluo hurriedly called someone to drive the car and took Xiaobao to the Confucius Mansion.

The gate of the Confucius Mansion was wide open at this moment, and servants were coming in and out with panicked looks on their faces. They must be looking for the lost young master.

The carriage stopped, and Lu Yanluo carried Xiaobao down from the carriage. Xiaobao pointed to the Kong Mansion and said happily, "Home, this is Xiaobao's home. Xiaobao is home!"

"Young Master!" A little maid saw the carriage at the door and glanced over casually. She immediately saw the young master who had been missing for a whole day and shouted loudly, "Young Master, you are finally back! The young master is back!"

Word spread quickly, and soon Kong Chenyang and his wife hurried out of the house. Kong Chenyang's wife walked straight to Xiaobao, picked up the child, and held him tightly in her arms.

In contrast, Kong Chenyang's attitude was much stranger. His original excitement was replaced by surprise. Kong Chenyang looked stunned. He looked straight at Lu Yanluo and murmured, "It's you. You finally showed up!"

Lu Yanluo looked back and frowned unconsciously. This person... looks so familiar.

But no matter how Lu Yanluo tried to recall, her memory just couldn't find such a face. She was very sure that she had never seen Kong Chenyang before.

Kong Chenyang walked slowly closer and said to Lu Yanluo meaningfully: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and you're finally here."
