Changshi was so angry that he shouted, "Princess!"

Although his wife would also put the secret play map in the suitcase to ward off evil spirits, it was obvious that the prince and princess did not use the secret play map to ward off evil spirits!

The princess is so shameless that she will bring bad luck to the prince!

No, the prince wasn't a good person...

The more Changshi thought about it, the darker his future seemed to him, and his vision became increasingly dark.

Yu Jin turned the corner and cleared his throat: "Why is the Chief Secretary making such a noise here?"

Seeing the tall and graceful young man striding towards him with a questioning tone in his voice, the steady and serious Chang Shi rolled his eyes in anger.

Why did he make such a fuss? He was just doing his duty, trying to stop the prince and princess from going down the wrong path.

"Your Highness, were you the one who asked the princess to come to the study?" Although he was extremely angry, the Chief Secretary still remembered to greet Yu Jin.

Yu Jin glanced at Jiang Si and nodded: "Yeah."

"Your Highness!" The chief historian took a step forward, his expression heavy as if the sky would fall down in the next moment, "The study is a restricted area, how can a woman be allowed to enter casually? Even if she is the princess, she should not be allowed to enter casually! Your Highness, you are breaking the rules and it is inappropriate..."

Yu Jin did not stop him, and let the chief clerk talk without stopping. He guessed that the old man was done with his words, so he asked with a smile, "Chief clerk, how about going into the study with Xiao Wang for a cup of tea?"

When Changshi heard about drinking tea, his beard twitched violently, as if someone had strangled him by the neck and he could not speak.

Yu Jin glanced at the servant calmly and said, "Why don't you help the chief secretary into the study? You have no good eyesight!"

The servant listened to Yu Jian's words the most. Upon hearing them, he immediately grabbed the chief secretary's arm and dragged him to the study.

The chief secretary already had a deep shadow on drinking tea, and he hurriedly pushed the servant away and ran away.

The servant looked at Yu Jin hesitantly: "My Lord——"

"Guard the door." Yu Jin said, stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Si into the study, and went straight to the living room in the east.

There was a low couch in the living room. Yu Jin walked over to the couch and sat down, patting the cushion under him: "Asi, I want to admire the secret picture you found."

When did he hide the secret play picture in his study? He was such a careless person, if he had to hide it, he should have hidden it under his pillow.

Jiang Si walked over, sat on a brocade stool nearby, and handed the scroll over.

Yu Jin took it, looked at the scroll carefully, and his expression changed slightly.

How did Asi find this out?

After a moment of silence, Jiang Si asked, "Who is the person in the painting?"

Yu Jin did not unfold the scroll. He held the yellowed scroll and looked at Jiang Si. Seeing that she was asking seriously, he hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, "Of course it's you. Who else could it be?"

Jiang Si took the scroll back, slowly unfolded it, pointed at the person in the painting and said, "The girl in the painting is in her prime. When I was your age, you were in southern Xinjiang."

Yu Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Asi, do you suspect that I can draw other people?"

Jiang Si lowered his eyes to look at the girl in the painting, and glanced at Yu Jin with a half-smile: "The person in this painting is at least 90% similar to me when I was twelve or thirteen years old. How could I suspect that you painted someone else? Ah Jin, are you saying this because you are guilty of being a thief?"

Yu Jin coughed twice and said honestly, "Asi, you may not believe it, but there is a woman in southern Xinjiang who looks very similar to you."

Jiang Si pursed her lips slightly.

Yu Jin's frankness undoubtedly made her feel a little relieved, but she was still unavoidable to be nervous.

How could she remain indifferent to the doubts of both her past and present lives?

"Who is it?" she asked.

Although the voice was soft, it was serious.

Yu Jin's answer was much more casual: "The Holy Maiden of Wu Miao."

Jiang Si blinked: "So I look a lot like Saint Wu Miao?"

Yu Jin nodded: "Yes, you do look alike. If someone who is not familiar with you sees you, they will definitely think you are the same person."

"What a coincidence, but unfortunately I didn't have the chance to meet you."

Yu Jin frowned: "Of course there is no chance. The Wu Miao Saint has already passed away and turned into a pile of yellow earth. Asi will definitely live a hundred years."

Jiang Si remained silent.

"What's wrong, Asi?"

“I don’t understand.”

"What's the matter?"

"You said the painting was of me, but when we first met, I was already an adult..."

There was a flash of struggle in Yu Jin's eyes, but looking at Jiang Si's bewildered look, he resigned himself to his fate and confessed, "Who said that? When I first saw you, you were less than ten years old..."

This answer was so unexpected that Jiang Si was really stunned.

"Don't you remember saving a little girl of twelve or thirteen?"

"A little girl of twelve or thirteen?" Jiang Si racked his brains to recall, but still could not find any clues.

Yu Jin reminded: "On the road outside Beijing, there was a little girl being dragged by two men..."

Jiang Si's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered this past event: "I remember that year when I went to the temple outside the city to burn incense, I saw two people holding a little girl on the road. The little girl said that the two men were kidnappers, but the two men said they were the little girl's brothers..."

She still remembered it clearly, because the two men said this, and the busy passers-by looked on coldly, and no one was willing to help the little girl no matter how she struggled.

Perhaps because of her girl's sensitivity, she almost immediately concluded that the two men were not good people.

Seeing the girl struggling desperately, she quickly made up her mind to save her, so she lied that the girl was the maid she had lost not long ago.

The two men saw that although she was young, she was followed by many maids, servants and family members. They did not dare to force her, but were unwilling to let her go.

She ordered Ah Man to give the silver to the two men and the disturbance was finally settled.

The silver was the money she had prepared to donate to the temple for incense. This way she didn't have to go to burn incense, so she took the rescued girl back to the city.

After returning to the city and meeting a crowded place, she gave the girl a few small silver coins and sent her away, and soon forgot about the matter.

To her, it was just a small favor that happened to happen, so she naturally didn't take it to heart.

Jiang Si pulled back his thoughts and looked at Yu Jin with a strange expression: "Is that little girl related to you?"

Yu Jin's ears immediately turned red. After struggling for a while, he made up his mind and said, "That little girl is me!"

Jiang seemed to think he had heard wrongly, and raised his round fan to cover his mouth which was slightly open due to shock. After a while, he calmed down and said carefully: "Ah, I really can't believe... you had such a hobby when you were young..."

Yu Jin blushed and explained quickly, "I have lived in a farm outside Beijing since I was a child. I complained about everything and was cynical. One day I wanted to get away from those people and go into the city. Although I was not welcomed, I was a prince after all, so it was not easy to sneak out. So I had an idea to dress up as a girl, and then I sneaked out successfully. Who knew that I was spotted halfway..."

After that incident, he put away all his resentment and injustice, and vowed to possess great power and never fall into such a terrible situation again.

It was also after that time that his cold, lonely heart felt concerned for the first time...
