Wen Yidi was completely unaware of everything that happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion. He returned to Qiongxian Building with a sullen face. After making sure to close the doors and windows, he suddenly lost all strength and collapsed on the chair.

His left foot, which he was used to, was now aching, reminding Wen Yidi that he had been seriously injured here. He thought of today's conversation with the eldest princess, and recalled the eldest princess's reaction, and thought to himself:

"Will it be the eldest princess?"

Before this, Wen Yidi had imagined countless scenarios of meeting the eldest princess. Perhaps, he would feel the connection between bloodlines and be able to determine his origin without any evidence.

Perhaps the eldest princess will remember some special marks on the child and be able to identify him at once. She would even recognize her own flesh and blood at a glance, just like the plot written in the drawing book.

However, none of these assumptions came true. Although he could feel the fluctuations in the eldest princess's mood and her heart wavering, he did not detect the so-called special connection between mother and child.

Wen Yidi even began to suspect that there was actually no connection between the old injury on his left foot and the anklet. He just wanted to find his biological parents so much and wanted to be freed from the painful days that he had such great hope in taking away the eldest princess.

Let me ask, if his biological parents were just ordinary people, or even as humble as businessmen, would he still be so eager to recognize his relatives?

Perhaps he would only take a glance at her from afar, leave a sum of money silently at most, and then hide his life experience firmly and never let the Wen family know.

The eldest princess is a member of the royal family. If he is really her and the consort's child, then he is of royal blood. And the emperor would never let him confess his love in a hurry without enough evidence.

Therefore, the key to breaking the situation now lies with the Wen family's parents. Of course Wen Yidi would not be stupid enough to break up with them directly. Since the Wen family kept him, it meant that he was still valuable.

If you rush to ask, not only will you not get the real answer, but it will also make them more defensive about themselves. Thinking of this, Wen Yidi's desire to meet his biological parents suddenly faded a lot.

He took out the list Wen Yi'an gave him, recalled the people on the list one by one, and quickly selected the suitable candidate. These selected people had to be shown to the emperor. Wen Yidi was not worried that his brother would lie to him.

After waiting like this for a few days, Wen Yidi received the imperial edict from the emperor, ordering him to lead some of the Wen family's shopkeepers to Hezhou to take charge of the business transactions between Wanhua Kingdom and Siwu Kingdom.

Although the Wen family complained about this result, it was the emperor's will after all. They did not dare to disobey and had no choice but to let Wen Yidi go.

However, there were far more than just these people who followed Wen Yidi to Hezhou. According to the previously agreed results, some of the remaining Wen family members sided with Wen Yidi, providing him with business conveniences and passing on some news.

In return, the children they carefully selected from their families would be secretly brought to Hezhou. There, these infant babies will be treated as orphans on the battlefield and handed over to the local people to raise.

Wen Yidi sat on the carriage heading to Hezhou and carefully watched the news from the housekeeper Wen Jiawang. What Wen Jiawong gave away was his newly born son, the youngest of the group of children.

When he opened the letter, the first thing Wen Jiawong mentioned was the matter of his children. Unlike others, Wen Jiawang did not ask Wen Yidi where he would send his child.

On the contrary, he repeatedly emphasized in the letter that Wen Yidi should send the child to an ordinary family and never let him know his life experience in this life. Only in this way can the child truly change his life.

In addition, Wen Jiawang also warned Wen Yidi not to trust the Wen family too much. In recent days, the elders of the Wen family have been spending more and more time together. Although Wen Jiawang didn't know what they were planning, he also realized that something was wrong.

After reading the contents of the letter, Wen Yidi immediately lit a fire and burned the letter in his hand to ashes. His mood at this time was extremely complicated, but he could only bite the bullet and continue walking.

When approaching Hezhou, several waves of people suddenly came and wanted to take Wen Yidi's life. Fortunately, Xu Shihuan made preparations in advance and sent people out to meet them, so the assassins could not succeed.

Looking at Xu Shihuan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Wen Yidi could hardly control his excitement. If he wasn't afraid of being seen badly by outsiders, he would really want to hug Xu Shihuan tightly.

As if telepathically, Xu Shihuan rode over on horseback. She stopped in front of Wen Yidi's carriage and shouted:

"This carriage is so broken, how can you still ride on it? Are you guys who are traveling with you freeloaders? You can't even handle this little thing?"

After saying that, she looked sad, as if she was struggling with something. After a while, he reluctantly said:

"Alas, we can't find a new carriage at the moment. We have no choice but to ride on the same horse as Master Wen."

After saying that, she selectively ignored the surprised expression on Wen Yidi's face, and calmly stretched out a hand to motion for Wen Yidi to come up.

Wen Yidi was obviously shocked by her lie. Looking at the almost intact carriage and the dozens of horses behind it used to pull goods, there was no need for him and Xu Shihuan to ride on the same horse.

The expressions on the faces of those shopkeepers who followed Wen Yidi to Hezhou were also very rich. They originally thought that the eldest young master would have a hard time coming to Hezhou this time because he lost his position as an imperial merchant.

But before they arrived in Hezhou, Master Xu, the magistrate of Hezhou, came to pick him up on horseback. He even thought of a way to ride a horse with the young master. Anyone who saw it would think that there was something wrong between the two people.

In contrast, the people brought by Xu Shihuan were terrifyingly calm. Far from being surprised by Xu Shihuan's reaction, they were all very cooperative.

Seeing that Wen Yidi was reluctant to get on the horse, a soldier squatted on the side of the horse, indicating that Wen Yidi could step on him as a footstool. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more outrageous, Wen Yidi did not dare to delay any longer, jumped up on the horse, and sat behind Xu Shihuan.

"Mr. Wen is very agile, and even the way he mounts his horse is so beautiful."

"I was far away before and didn't know Master Wen well enough. But when I saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary."

"A man like Lord Wen is truly one of a kind."

Hearing the people under him praise more and more outrageously, Xu Shihuan raised his lips slightly and said softly:

"Hold on."

With a "drive", Xu Shihuan rushed out with Wen Yidi, leaving the rest of the people far behind.

"Shi Huan, is this really good? If they gossip behind their backs and spread to Yong'an City..."

Before Wen Yidi could finish expressing his concerns, Xu Shihuan chuckled and said:

"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of them talking nonsense now. Besides, they don't have the guts either."

The horse underneath him ran very fast, and Wen Yidi couldn't help but hug Xu Shihuan's waist tightly. Accompanied by the whistling wind in his ears, Xu Shihuan's voice came from the front:

"In Hezhou, they all call me the Living King of Hell behind my back."
