It's almost time to wear it. The soft beauty relies on the child-bearing system to favor her

How many people are destined to be sleepless tonight.

After Shang Xingjian left Su Wanti's residence, he went to the An family study to continue dealing with the affairs of the Luzhou prefect with An Jing and others.

Originally, Master An was there too, but he was called over by his mother a quarter of an hour ago.

In Madam An's room, there was a burning of sandalwood, which was mellow and soft and could calm the mind.

Master An sat on the square stool in front of his mother's bed, listening to her talk.

"Mother, are you saying that Miss Su is very likely the granddaughter of my eldest sister?" Master An's eyes widened.

"When I saw her today, I thought she just looked like my elder sister. It's possible for two people to look similar even though they're not related by blood, so I didn't think much about it..."

"Her father was picked up in Luzhou when he was about seven or eight years old. She still has the red silk thread and red gold pendant anklet that you gave to my little nephew. What a coincidence."

"Mother, do you believe what Miss Su said?"

Master An was worried. After what had just happened with the prefect of Luzhou, he was like a frightened bird. He was suspicious of everything and didn't dare to believe anything easily. He was afraid that the other party had ulterior motives and had known all the past events of his family and came to claim his relationship on purpose.

Madam An's eyes sank slightly. In fact, she was already about 70% convinced in her heart, but the matter of blood relationship was no trivial matter and had to be completely confirmed.

"Now that Xu Denggao's incident has happened, your government office certainly doesn't have the time to look for someone. Go find some capable and reliable people outside and ask them to look for Miss Su's father. It doesn't matter how much money it costs. Our An family must find the little boy back."

The child of Mrs. An’s eldest daughter, whose nickname was Xiaotong’er.

Master An nodded and said, "Don't worry, mother. I will ask the housekeeper to do this when I leave."

"But mother, you need to keep a calm mind and don't get too excited or too sad, or it will damage your health. Besides, Miss Su said that all the gold and silver jewelry her father wore were pawned in pawnshops. We went to all the pawnshops in Luzhou City and nearby cities, but we didn't find any jewelry of our nephew. I think you should not hold out too much hope."

When this matter was mentioned, Madam An's eyes suddenly lit up. She patted the edge of the bed and said, "At that time we all thought that the child was abducted by kidnappers. Today, when you mentioned the pawnshop, I have some other ideas."

Master An frowned and thought carefully, then hesitated for a moment and said:

"Mother means that the person who kidnapped the little boy is quite wealthy and powerful, and he had planned it long ago. Before we did, he rushed to all the pawnshops in Luzhou City and bought all the little boy's ornaments. So we searched all the pawnshops and found nothing?"

Madam An nodded.

Master An frowned, his eyes deep, and said, "If that is true, then the person who murdered the little boy is either the enemy of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, or a relative of the Loyal and Brave Marquis."

"If the little boy disappears, he will directly profit..."

Master An thought of Marquis Zhongyong’s younger brother Lu Tian. After his little nephew disappeared, his sister and brother-in-law left sadly and lived in the border forever.

The huge assets of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion are all managed by Lu Tian.

The title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is a hereditary title. After the little nephew disappeared, his sister and brother-in-law did not have any more children. After his brother-in-law died, the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery naturally fell on Lu Tian's son.

Thinking about it this way, Lu Tian and his son are the ones who benefited the most from this incident!

Thinking of this, Master An felt a tightness in his chest. He clenched his fists and said, "Mother, don't worry. I will definitely find Miss Su's father and figure out the whole thing!"

Mr. An's butler was originally a gangster. He retired from the underworld many years ago and found a stable job to spend the rest of his life.

After receiving the master's order, he thought about it and finally decided to look for his old friends in the underworld. They have many connections and are not restricted, so it is easier for them to get things done.

Shang Xingjian and others discussed in the study all night.

Early in the morning, he thought Su Wanti should wake up by now, so he returned to his residence.

However, Su Wanti's room was empty.

"Where is Miss Su?" he asked the maid.

When the little maid learned of the eldest prince Shang Xingjian's identity, she was so frightened that she trembled and knelt on the ground. She didn't even dare to raise her head and said timidly, "Miss Su has found the palace doctor."

Shang Xingjian's eyes sank slightly. He had an impression of Doctor Qu, a fair-faced man in his early thirties. It was said that he spent all day studying medicinal herbs and prescriptions and had no interest in marriage and love, so he was still unmarried.

Thinking of this, Shang Xingjian turned around and walked out without saying a word.

He was tall and had long legs, and his steps were steady and quick, and he soon arrived in front of the small courtyard of Doctor Qu's house.

The courtyard, which used to be quiet and deserted, was now bustling with people and very lively.

There was a rectangular wooden table in the yard. Su Wanti sat at one end of the table to diagnose people's pulses. There was a long line in front of the table, including servants from the An Mansion and soldiers from the elite camp.

As soon as Shang Xingjian appeared, the originally noisy and lively courtyard suddenly became quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Someone shouted, and everyone in the yard knelt down.

Su Wanti also stood up, moved a step to the outside of the wooden table, and knelt down to salute.

Shang Xingjian felt that Su Wanti seemed to have her own brilliance. There were many people in the yard, but he still saw her at a glance.

His eyes were only on Su Wanti, not paying any attention to anyone else.

"No need to be so polite, get up." Shang Xingjian said, and then walked forward quickly.

Just as Su Wanti was about to stand up, she saw two big hands reaching out from both sides.

The dark satin sleeves with dark patterns carried a faint scent of morning dew, and the green jade ring on the thumb showed the man's extraordinary status.

Su Wanti stood up, lowered her eyebrows and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the First Prince."

Seeing her obedient appearance like a quail, Shang Xingjian curled his lips, chuckled twice, and said in a deep voice: "I still like your unruly appearance."

The woman's cheeks flushed, and she raised her watery eyes and glared at the man quickly.

Shang Xingjian smiled and said, "When are you done? I have something to tell you."

Su Wanti glanced at the long queue in the courtyard and said, "It will probably take an hour. Is what Your Highness wants to say urgent?"

"It's about your father's disappearance."

"Then wait until I'm done. Firstly, this matter is important, but not urgent. Secondly, I'm a doctor. I said I would treat them and prescribe medicine for free today. I can't just abandon them."

Shang Xingjian nodded, "Then I'll wait for you here."

He took a few steps back, and the medicine boy hurried over and asked him to sit down in the room and have some tea.

After being rejected, the medicine boy moved a chair over, placed it under the shade of the willow trees, and asked Shang Xingjian to sit there and wait.

The silver-robed general who had led the troops here yesterday was also here. He always led by example in the barracks and never asked for special treatment, so he also waited in line honestly in the queue to see the doctor.

After taking the pulse and getting the prescription, he walked straight to Shang Xingjian.

"Your Highness, is this Miss Su the palace doctor?" asked the silver-robed general.

Shang Xingjian did not answer directly, but asked him: "Why are you asking this?"

The silver-robed general hesitated for a moment and said, "If she is a female doctor, she must have a good family background and it is impossible for her to suffer in the military camp. If she is a female doctor from the folks, it will be much easier."

"Is it much easier?" Shang Xingjian frowned and said in a deep voice.

The silver-robed general continued, "Yes, if Miss Su is a commoner, then I plan to marry her."

"Miss Su is beautiful, has excellent medical skills, is gentle and not pretentious. I want to marry her."

He talked to himself, glancing at Su Wanti from time to time with warm and sincere eyes, completely unaware of the eldest prince's frozen smile and white knuckles in front of him.

After the silver-robed general finished speaking, Shang Xingjian said slowly, "Give up the idea of ​​marrying her. She will never marry in her life."

For the first time, Shang Xingjian felt from the bottom of his heart that Su Wanti's determination not to get married was a good idea.

The silver-robed general's eyes widened. "Who said that? How is it possible? How can a woman not marry?"

Shang Xingjian smiled faintly and said nothing.
