In April, Xu Yixing got up one day and went out for a walk as usual. But today, before she left the house, Qiu Ling stopped her and said that someone wanted her to meet someone.

"Who is so important? I have finally managed to get a chance to try out Yanzhizhaiyuan's new product. Don't delay me!" Xu Yixing glared at Qiu Ling. Even though Lu Anyuan had told her that Qiu Ling was his former leader of the secret guards and was very loyal, she just didn't like him.

"The people are here soon, don't worry, madam." Qiu Ling didn't say much to her, knowing that he was not liked by the madam, so it was better to say less.

Xu Yixing stood at the circular archway, looked out, and saw a person in the distance. His eyes immediately lit up: "Yi Wen!"

When the person came closer, she changed her words and said, "Brother!"

Xu Yiwen looked tired and thinner than when he was in Miaozhou. It was really heartbreaking to see him.

"Sister." But his smile still retained a hint of heartlessness, just like before.

"I heard that you and I both lived in the former governor's mansion in Miaozhou. I thought you would arrive at about the same time as me. What took you so long?"

Xu Yiwen's face was a little embarrassed when he mentioned this topic. He hesitated for a long time and said softly: "I just stayed in Miaozhou to deal with some personal matters, so I came a little late. Are you okay, Xiaobao, are you okay?"

Seeing that he said it so reluctantly, Xu Yixing knew that it must be true what he said, "It is the most difficult to accept the favor of a beauty." This Third Miss Wu dared to cause trouble in Prince Cheng's Mansion without telling her parents even though she was lame. Her determination and perseverance are evident. Yiwen must have taken some effort to deal with her affairs.

"We are all fine, but brother, now that you have come to Jiangnan, you should relax. Brother once said that he wanted to travel thousands of miles, and now you can do it to your heart's content, isn't it wonderful?"

However, Xu Yiwen did not look very happy when she heard this. She just forced a smile and said, "Sister, you are joking. Those were all ignorant words back then. Let's not talk about them." After saying that, she raised her head and looked at the people in front of her, "Dad used to say that I couldn't compare to you and my sister. Now I am really convinced. You actually dared to conceal such a thing. I really, really admire you."

What Yi Wen was talking about was naturally the fake death of the Emperor and Empress. It turned out that he was uneasy about this matter. It was no wonder that a normal person would be uneasy knowing such a big secret, let alone someone like him who was involved in it.

"This incident was really beyond my expectations. I didn't expect it, but since it happened, I might as well accept it calmly. I like my life now, and I hope my brother likes it too."

"Well, then I will stay here for a while and make plans later."

"Okay!" Xu Yixing showed a perfect smile and called Qiu Ling to clean up the room and welcome Yiwen to move in.

Jiangnan is truly a charming place. I believe that after he lives here for a while, he will be able to forget all his worries and sorrows. By that time, perhaps I won't mind telling him who I am. I just hope he won't be scared away, hahahaha.

After settling Yiwen down, the family had a rare reunion dinner. But Yiwen may have been thinking about Lu Anyuan's past identity, so he was not happy even when eating, which made people very upset. But take it slow, I believe he will adapt to this kind of life soon.

Xu Yixing still went shopping every day. In fact, most of the time she didn't buy anything, and she didn't go out for any reason, she just wanted to go out. It was inconvenient to go out in Beijing, but now that she was out, it was time to enjoy the atmosphere of the city.

Passing by a pharmacy, she was attracted by the long line in front of her. Are you kidding me? This is a pharmacy, not a charity hall. Why are there so many people?

Xu Yixing called the people who followed him to ask. This girl was pointed out by Lu Anyuan. She seemed to be a maidservant. She was also very smart. She immediately went forward to inquire and reported back: "Madam, they said that a miracle doctor came to Le'an Hall, so everyone is eager to come and visit."

Xu Yixing thought for a moment and asked, "What is Mr. Yao busy with recently?"

"He seems to be tinkering with something in the back mountain. It can't be him." The little girl understood Xu Yixing's implication as soon as she heard it, so she rushed to answer.

"Okay, I thought too much." Xu Yixing waved his hand listlessly and continued to stroll. He waited until the sun set before he took the candied fruits he bought on the street, hid in the back street of Le'antang, and blocked the so-called miracle doctor.

"Hey, whose child is this?" Xu Yixing looked at the familiar figure climbing over the wall of Le'an Hall and knew that his guess was correct.

Being discovered, Ying Si touched his nose awkwardly: "Madam, what's the matter?"

Xu Yixing gave a look and drove all the people following him out of the alley. Then he asked with a smile on his face: "Didn't I tell you to disperse on your own? Why did you follow me all the way to Jiangnan?"

"Then I want to come to Jiangnan, so what?" Ying Si was also very confident, and his eyes simply said, "Is Jiangnan your territory? Why don't you let me come?"

Xu Yixing was helpless, and his tone was a little soft: "Are you worried about me? There is no need to worry. I eat well, sleep well, and live well here. I am free and at ease. I am much happier than when I was in the capital! Listen to me, and give them a message. Life is not easy. Go and live the life you want as soon as possible. If the money I give you is not enough, you can also tell me."

Ying Si raised his head, opened his eyes with difficulty in the slanting sunlight, and looked at his master with a golden glow behind him.

Live the life you want? Master, how could you know that these people have been trained to work hard for the master since they can remember. They don't have any self. Now you let them go with just a few words, but you don't know what a big blow this is to them.

"I'm now practicing medicine at Le'antang, just being myself." Ying Si didn't intend to tell his master about his thoughts, because she wouldn't understand anyway.

"My good Ying Si! What miracle doctor would change his name while seeing patients and climb over the wall in the backyard to escape for fear of being discovered? How is this different from stealing?"

Xu Yixing sighed and took out a piece of yellowed old paper from his arms. To be precise, it was a strip, as if it was torn from something - this was mixed in with the things that Lu Anyuan moved from the capital. It was said that it was obtained by Uncle Bai when he was sorting out old things in the Bai Mansion. On it were some of his grandfather's old manuscripts.

"This is your place of origin and identity information. If you have any ideas, you can go back and look for your family."

"I have no family." Ying Si said this decisively. Those who were trained to become Shadow Guards had all severed their family ties early on, either being sold by their parents or being orphans. No matter which one it was, he didn't want to have anything to do with them anymore.
