Three years later.
Murong Jin sat on his horse, with two little cubs sitting in front of him. The cubs looked almost identical, their big eyes looking around.
"Mother, Mother, where are we going?"
Nan Muyu looked up at her beautiful mother and asked, "Are we going to find Uncle Lan?"
Murong Jin: "No, sweetie."
The boy at the front had a blank expression and a cold demeanor.
"Where are we going?"
What do you think, brother?
The boy, Nan Fengyi, said, "Mother is going to the Valley of Divine Healers."
"Oh~~ Is that so?"
"Shall we go to the Valley of Divine Healers to see Auntie?"
Murong Jin: "Go see your grandmaster."
This trip involved four people: Yi Liu and Yi Yi, and Jin Jiu and Jin Liu.
Yi Er is now a married man, and Ning Sheng is pregnant, so naturally he needs to be by her side to take good care of her.
"Master, Jinfeng has returned to the capital."
Murong Jin hummed in agreement, then heard Yi Liu say, "He resigned from his official post, as did Jin Si. We don't know where they went."
Murong Jin: "...So they didn't receive the letter you sent?"
Yi Liu shook his head. "I don't know, and they haven't replied."
"Sixth Uncle, hug me." Little Mu'er reached out her hands, and Murong Jin handed her over. Yi Liu took the little master and placed her in front of him to sit down.
"drive."
"Oh ho ho ho... This is so much fun."
Murong Jin looked at the people running ahead, and Yi Yi continued beside him, "Jin Feng returned a year after we left the capital. By then, Wu Mang Kingdom had been transformed into a town in Da Cheng. After he finished dealing with it, he returned to the capital. We only know that he resigned from his post and we don't know where he went."
"As for Jin Si, he arrived in the capital two months after we left. Later, I heard from our spies that he left the capital not long after."
The letters they sent had special codes that only their own people could decipher. What's going on with these two?
It's been so long, and there's still no sign of anyone.
Murong Jin: "With their abilities, nothing will happen."
Xiao Yi'er sat beside them, listening to their conversation, but her eyes were fixed on her younger sister not far away.
They are three years and two months old now, no longer three-year-old children.
...
"Yi'er, Mu'er, Grandpa has come to see you."
As soon as Murong Zhi entered the manor, he couldn't hear the voices of his two little darlings. It was normal that he couldn't hear Yi'er; that child was rather quiet, and he wondered who he took after...
Yu'er, that girl, is lively and mischievous...
Upon not finding anyone, Murong Zhi's expression immediately changed. The steward beside him said, "Your Highness, Miss and the others have gone to the Valley of Divine Physicians."
Murong Zhi: "What are you going to the Valley of Divine Physicians for?"
"Miss's master seems to have been poisoned, with a very rare poison. Miss, please go and see what's wrong."
"But you can't take all my grandsons with you. If they're all gone, what about me?"
housekeeper:"……"
Since the arrival of the young lady and young master, the prince's personality has become increasingly childish.
"You can also go to the Valley of Divine Healers to find them."
Murong Zhi snorted, "If I had known where the Valley of Divine Physicians was, I would have gone there long ago."
housekeeper:"……"
...
Inside the inn, Murong Jin put her daughter aside and said, "Be good, Mommy's going out for a bit. Listen to Aunt Jiu, okay?"
Little Yu'er has big eyes and a cute face with a bit of baby fat. She says in a childish voice, "I know, Mommy, my brother and I are very good."
Little Yi'er, standing beside him, had a calm and composed demeanor like a little adult, and simply said, "Mm."
Murong Jin kissed them both on the cheek. "Then Mother will go and get busy."
After Murong Jin left, Nan Muyu looked at her brother and said, "Brother, let's go find Father."
Looking at the expectant look on his sister's face, Nan Fengyi was momentarily speechless: "..."
Why do you want to find your father?
"Aren't you curious? Our mother is so amazing, our father must be amazing too."
"Moreover, from what I've heard my grandfather say, my father definitely doesn't like my mother. I even heard it when I went out to play before: my mother came to Jiangnan because my father abandoned her."
"I want to go see this scumbag father."
Nan Fengyi closed the small book in his hand. "Wouldn't it be better to have no contact with him from now on? If we find that father, what does Mi plan to do? Make Mother remember the sad things again?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Muyu's eyes lit up. "That makes so much sense!"
"Then let's find a husband for Mother, a stepfather for us, what do you think?"
Nan Fengyi: "..." He wanted to refuse, but looking at his sister's eyes, he wavered.
"good."
If my sister wants to ask about our father, then let's find her a father.
“I have a request.”
Nan Muyu stood with her hands behind her back, two little buns on her head, "Hehe, I know, only those who are good to Mommy are qualified to be our father."
"Um."
Looking out the window at the crowd below, she said, "Mother came here to discuss business with her partners. Once the deal is done, we'll head to Divine Healer Valley. Brother, do you think there are any good men in Divine Healer Valley?"
Nan Fengyi: "..."
“But I heard Uncle Lan say that most of the disciples in the Divine Doctor Valley are my mother’s junior brothers and sisters, and my mother is their senior brother.”
"But Mother is a girl, so why is she called the eldest brother?"
Nan Fengyi didn't answer her. He figured his sister would gradually forget these questions; she asked tens of thousands of questions every day and then put them out of her mind.
Murong Jin did come to discuss business, but not in a direct manner; it was through the black market.
Yi Liu followed beside her, his voice low, "Master, this man is selling women and children on the black market..."
Murong Jin's lips curled slightly. "I know, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten involved."
This is also why Yu'er and the others weren't brought along; Jinjiu could keep an eye on things while she handled the business negotiations, which put her mind at ease.
"Madam Jin."
Murong Jin sat there, dressed in a blue and pink orchid-patterned dress, and said, "Boss Wang."
"This is the goods."
Murong Jin glanced at it and said, "It looks to be of good quality."
"Absolutely, but I'm also quite curious, why would Madam think of selling these things here?"
These medicinal herbs are all somewhat toxic, and besides, most of the shops this Lady Jin runs in Jiangnan are silk shops and restaurants...
Murong Jin smiled, "Of course, someone asked me to buy it."
Cash on delivery.
After having the items shipped free of charge, Murong Jin looked at the man opposite her and said, "Then, I look forward to our next collaboration."
Murong Jin: "Of course."
After Murong Jin and his group left with the goods, the pot-bellied Boss Wang couldn't stop smiling.
Not long after, a servant reported, "Master, something terrible has happened! Our shipment in the western suburbs has been stolen."
