Xia Sheng thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "In Jizhou, all we can find about Han Dongshan is what happened after the 32nd year of the Qinglong reign. There's no way to find out what kind of person he was before he came to Jizhou. Perhaps he never mentioned it to anyone."
Seeing Ren Yaoqi's disappointed expression, Xia Sheng said, "But maybe we can find out by going to Jiangnan. Han Dongshan was already sixteen when he came to Yanbei. He must have come into contact with others before he was sixteen. We can find out as long as we find those people."
Xia Sheng's life was easy, but Ren Yaoqi knew it wasn't easy at all. Since Han Dongshan didn't want anyone to know his origins, he must have made some preparations. Moreover, after so many years, and during the period of disaster, how easy would it be to find someone who knew Han Dongshan?
The most important thing is that the marriage between the Han and Ren families is imminent, and she has no time. Perhaps she can only find another way?
Ren Yaoqi thought so, with a pensive look on his face.
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi was silent, Xia Sheng hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to say, "I'm willing to go to Jiangnan to investigate this Han Dongshan."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned and looked up at Xia Sheng: "It will take at least a month to go to Jiangnan and back."
Xia Sheng is not a member of her Ren family and has no responsibility to work for the Ren family.
"I've just brought in two new disciples. According to the rules of our sect, they must undergo some training before leaving the sect. So I was originally going to leave Yanbei for a while, but I thought I could use this time to investigate Han Dongshan's affairs, which I could also assign to my two disciples. Besides... I also feel that Han Dongshan is not a simple person. After all, most people wouldn't be so taboo about their past. It would be more reassuring to investigate."
If so, that would be even better.
Ren Yaoqi nodded and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Cousin, you're too kind. I just don't understand why you are so concerned about Han Dongshan. You suspect his origins because you felt he was too mysterious during the investigation this time. Why do you suspect him?" Xia Sheng asked with some confusion.
"I just feel that the Han family is a bit weird. It seems like they appeared out of nowhere, and they seem to be deliberately trying to get close to the Ren family. So it's better to find out more." Ren Yaoqi said with a smile.
Xia Sheng nodded and stopped asking.
Ren Yaoqi said half-jokingly, "You still want to take on apprentices? If you have time in the future, can you bring me some maids who know martial arts?"
Xia Sheng was stunned and touched his head a little embarrassedly: "Yes, I have never taken a female apprentice..."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but laugh: "I just thought that having one or two maids who are good at fighting and kicking around would make me feel more at ease when I go out in the future. If it's really difficult, then forget it."
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi was genuine, Xia Sheng gave it some thought. He nodded and said, "Then I'll go back and ask the master. If he allows, I'll bring two out for my cousin. But learning martial arts doesn't happen overnight. If you want to achieve success, you have to start practicing from a young age. Even if you have good aptitude, it will take at least three or four years to achieve success. I wonder if my cousin can wait?"
Seeing that he agreed. Ren Yaoqi smiled and nodded: "I'm not in a hurry to get it now."
She could still wait three or four years. In her previous life, the Ren family suffered a series of disasters five years later. Maybe it would really be useful.
"I don't need them to learn those fancy moves. I want you to teach them practical things. Xia Sheng. Since you have already promised me, you must teach them real skills. At least you must ensure that if one day I am kidnapped, they will be able to rescue me." Ren Yaoqi looked at Xia Sheng seriously and said.
