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

"We found out. It's in the hands of Marquis Zhongyong's younger brother Lu Tian." Shang Xingjian said.

Su Wanti's eyes flickered slightly, "Then was the nanny bribed by Lu Tian?"

Shang Xingjian nodded and said:

"One of the pawnshops vaguely remembered the man who bought children's ornaments for a high price thirty years ago. I asked someone to draw a portrait based on his description. The man in the portrait actually resembled Lu Tian to some extent, but Lu Tian now looks a little older than the man in the portrait."

Su Wanti lowered her eyes, bit her lip and thought for a moment, connecting all the clues together.

She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Thirty years ago, the younger brother of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, Lu Tian, ​​coveted his brother's title and mansion, so he bought a few servants and ordered them to take the son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis away and dump him in a remote alley in Luzhou."

"At the same time, he pretended to be still in the capital, but in fact he had already secretly come to Luzhou, and he should have been hiding in the dark, watching the son of the loyal and brave marquis being taken away."

"That person pawned the ornaments of the son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis in batches. Lu Tian was afraid that the An family would find out about the son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis through the pawn shop, so he paid a high price to buy all the ornaments himself."

"Four years ago, he discovered that Madam An had a gold locket that was worn by the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. He was afraid that Madam An would find him through it, so he bribed the maid of the An Mansion to steal the locket. To prevent future trouble, he later instructed the maid to poison Madam An, causing her to have an unbearable headache and unable to remember the past, and then she died in agony."

"And the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery who was deliberately lost is most likely my father. The person who took him away back then was Old Man Su."

After Su Wanti said all this, her excited heart became unusually calm.

"Your Highness, I have to go to the capital. I have a way to make Lu Tian tell me in person what happened thirty years ago." Her eyes were firm and her beautiful pupils were shining.

Shang Xingjian nodded, "Okay, I'll finish the things on hand as soon as possible, and then we'll return to Beijing."

"Is it about the prefect of Luzhou?" Su Wanti asked.

Shang Xingjian did not hide anything from her. When she asked, he said frankly: "Xu Denggao is not just embezzling government money. He also privately manufactured weapons and dug gold mines..."

"He wants to rebel?" Su Wanti's eyes turned, and then said: "No, he is being controlled by someone."

Shang Xingjian frowned.

Su Wanti said in a clear voice, "Your Highness, do you remember? After he was captured last night, he turned into a zombie!"

The man in front of him nodded.

Su Wanti continued, "They were all poisoned. This poison will transform living people into zombies that have no thoughts, feel no pain, and can only attack and destroy. Successfully transformed zombies will only obey the wishes of the poisoner."

"Will?" Shang Xingjian was puzzled.

Su Wanti explained:

"There is one thing that is indispensable in the poison, which is the hair ashes of a living person. The strange thing is that after taking the poison, the refined zombie will establish a connection with the owner of the hair. The zombie will do whatever the owner of the hair wants it to do, even if they are thousands of miles apart. It will not be affected at all."

Shang Xingjian thought thoughtfully, "Then the person who provided the hair can be called the owner of the zombie. If the zombie is destroyed, how will their owner be affected?"

Su Wanti shook her head.

"I don't know. My master once traveled to various places in Daning. She found this poison that can turn living people into zombies in a tribe in the deep mountains of the southwest. As for the destruction of the zombies, what effect it will have on the people connected to them? She has never seen it, so I don't know."

Shang Xingjian frowned deeply, "Southwest..."

He silently recited these two words, his eyes were deep and turned into ink.

After a long while, he finally spoke, "Thank you Miss Su for clearing up my doubts. Now that we have figured out the origins of Xu Denggao and his zombie warriors, we can set off and return to Beijing today."

He felt uneasy, as he felt that something big was going to happen in the capital. The affairs of Luzhou could be left to Lord An, and he had to return immediately.

"Miss Su, pack up your things, we'll leave right away."

Su Wanti was slightly startled. "Isn't this too sudden? I still want to see my family..."

Shang Xingjian's gloomy eyes softened when he saw Su Wanti's frown.

"I will send someone to bring your family into the An Mansion so you can see them."

"Are we going to pick it up now?" Su Wanti's eyes were full of excitement and joy.

Shang Xingjian nodded.

----

Shang Xingjian kept his promise and took Su Wanti's family to the An Mansion within a quarter of an hour.

Because they were brought in by the eldest prince, everyone in the An Mansion attached great importance to Su Wanti's family and took very thoughtful care of them.

The eldest lady arranged a spacious and bright courtyard for them, assigned more than a dozen servants to serve them, and sent them the best food, clothing and other necessities.

The father has not been found yet and his identity has not been confirmed. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Su Wanti told her family not to reveal their true identities to anyone.

She also did not recognize her family in front of the An family.

We met briefly and had to part without saying a few words.

Her mother and her younger brothers and sisters said goodbye to Su Wanti in tears. Su Wanti's eyes were curved and her face was full of smiles. After waving goodbye, she turned around with wet cheeks and two lines of tears flowing down.

Shang Xingjian's returning team was much smaller than when they came.

He took his guards and rode fast horses back to the capital first, while servants and others drove carriages and followed behind with luggage at a leisurely pace.

Shang Xingjian and his companions picked good horses and changed them at the post station. They soon left the main force far behind.

Su Wanti didn't know how to ride a horse, so Shang Xingjian carried her to his saddle without saying a word.

Along the way, the two rode on the same horse.

Su Wanti felt sorry for the horse, and she always secretly fed the horse pills to strengthen the body and eliminate illness.

[Host, you can buy the horse riding skill package. It only costs 100 points. It's very cheap! ]

Su Wanti stretched out a finger and shook it. "How can I get close to Shang Xingjian so naturally when I'm riding a horse by myself?"

The system's mouth formed an O shape, [But this system thinks that you are trying to take advantage of him. ]

[I saw you pinching his biceps and touching his abdominal muscles several times.]

Su Wanti thought of Shang Xingjian's strong arms, thick chest, and smooth, well-defined abdominal muscles, and swallowed.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm not. I didn't do that. Be careful or I'll file a complaint with the management office about your defamation."

Su Wanti was stubborn.

They traveled day and night for three days and three nights and finally entered the capital.

The relationship between Su Wanti and Shang Xingjian became closer because of their daily companionship and physical contact during these three days.

An Jing suggested that Su Wanti stay in the An Mansion temporarily, but Shang Xingjian decisively refused.

He told others that Su Wanti was the folk female doctor who saved his life, and took Su Wanti to live in the prince's mansion.

This prince's mansion was given to Shang Xingjian by Emperor Ning before he left Beijing.

After a month of rest, the mansion was completely tidied up, all necessary items such as food, clothing, housing and transportation were prepared, and hundreds of servants were in their positions. After Shang Xingjian returned to Beijing, he moved directly into the prince's mansion.

That night he went to the palace to pay a visit to his father, the emperor, and his mother, the queen.

Early the next morning, the imperial edict of enthronement arrived at the prince's mansion, and Emperor Ning conferred the title of Prince Rui on the eldest prince Shang Xingjian.

"Rui" means auspiciousness and good luck, reflecting Prince Ning's blessings and expectations for the eldest prince.

The second prince and the third prince were also canonized on the same day.

All three of them were eighteen years old this year, and they were all crowned kings.

The second prince was named Prince Ping, and the third prince was named Prince Duan.

In Furong Palace, the second prince, Prince Ping, crushed the white jade teacup, looking angry.

"Why did he get the title of Rui, which represents auspiciousness, while I got the title of Ping, which is unclear and confusing? Did the emperor say that I am mediocre and not fit for great use?"

He looks like his mother, Concubine Li, with big eyes, deep eye sockets, thick and curly eyelashes, distinct facial features, and a tall and well-proportioned figure. He is an absolute handsome man.

But at this moment, his handsome face was filled with fierceness, and he looked extremely murderous.

Concubine Li wore gorgeous clothes and sparkling jewelry, which matched her bright and delicate face very well.

Her face was painted with powder carefully mixed by the palace maids, and she looked in excellent condition.

Concubine Li fiddled with the teacup in her hand in an elegant manner. "Ping means peace and tranquility, and represents peace and stability. Perhaps your father is interested in you. I hope you can keep Da Ning safe."

She raised her eyelids slightly and sighed softly.

"But it's still worse than Rui."
