"are you OK?"

Jiang Ruoli walked up to Yunzhu and asked softly.

"I'm fine, Li'er." Yunzhu smiled at her, "I just didn't expect to run into someone mother knew. It was just a surprise."

As for that so-called father, she was not interested in him at all.

Jiang Ruoli felt relieved when she saw that her expression did not seem fake.

"Yuyao, pick out the ones you like today. This princess will treat you!"

"Oh, Li'er, if you say that, I, the princess, will not be polite!" Xiao Yuyao also put away her shock and teased with a smile.

"You can pick whatever you want. Don't worry, Li'er. I won't give you a discount."

"Then thank you so much!"

"Hahahahaha..."

The three girls burst into laughter.

Murong Chang hurried back to the inn, rushed into Murong Xiao's room, and almost knocked down Murong Xiao who was standing at the door.

"Why are you so reckless? What's the matter?" Murong Xiao asked unhappily.

Murong Chang was not afraid of him at this moment, "Brother! I saw Aunt Le Xiang's daughter!"

"What did you say?" Murong Xiao frowned tightly, "Aunt Le Xiang has a daughter?"

Murong Chang quickly told him what had just happened in Linglongzhai.

Aunt Le Xiang passed away...

Murong Xiao looked solemn.

"Royal brother, do you think we should tell Valley Master Ling about this?" Murong Chang spoke cautiously.

Murong Xiao pondered for a moment, "Don't make it public for now. Ling Guzhu's health condition doesn't allow him to travel such a long way to Dacheng. Let's discuss this matter later."

Murong Chang nodded.

Now that Jiang Ruoli has woken up, he should go to visit her.

But before that, Murong Xiao went to meet someone first.

In a private room of the Changjie Teahouse, Murong Xiao sat quietly, waiting for guests to arrive.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

The door opened and an old man walked in.

Murong Xiao stood up and said respectfully: "Doctor Liu, long time no see."

Liu Hua looked at him with a smile, "It's been a long time, the Saint looks even more beautiful..."

"Doctor Liu, please stop teasing me. Don't you know my identity?"

When facing Doctor Liu, Murong Xiao lost his previous coldness and became more humane.

The two sat down, Murong Xiao poured a cup of tea for Doctor Liu and asked tentatively:

"Doctor Liu, have you heard any news about Doctor Qianru in recent years?"

Doctor Liu paused while holding the tea, then said calmly: "So many years have passed, I have nothing to do with her anymore, why am I still asking about her?"

When Doctor Liu was young, he studied under the number one pharmacist in Dacheng. After he became an apprentice, he traveled around the world to treat people. One time, by chance, he saved the previous leader of Xuanying Sect. After that, he stayed in Xuanying Sect and treated the injuries of Xuanying Sect's disciples for ten years.

His junior sister Qianru also followed him for many years in Xuanying Sect. Later, she met Ling, the master of Baichong Valley. The two fell in love with each other, but the sect had rules that after joining, one could only save people for the rest of his life and was not allowed to get married and have children.

The junior sister had a big quarrel with Doctor Liu over this matter, and then she withdrew from the sect, changed her name to Le Xiang, and studied poison making with Valley Master Ling, completely separating herself from the sect that was dedicated to saving the world.

Doctor Liu still felt depressed when thinking about his junior sister who had insisted on having her own way.

What was so good about that man full of poison that made her abandon her master and leave...

Murong Xiao said carefully: "Doctor Liu, actually... Doctor Qianru has passed away."

"What did you say?!"

Doctor Liu was so startled that the teacup in his hand fell onto the table with a dull sound.

Murong Xiao sighed and told him what Murong Chang had encountered today.

"Qianru she..."

Doctor Liu could not believe that his once lively and bright little sister was no longer alive...

"You said she has another daughter..." Doctor Liu spoke obscurely.

"Yes, Doctor Qianru's daughter opened a perfume and powder shop on Chang Street." Murong Xiao said.

"Her daughter...what's her name?"

"Yunzhu."

Doctor Liu was stunned. It turned out to be Yunzhu...

He really didn't admit his mistake!

Murong Xiao observed his expression, "Doctor Liu knows Yunzhu?"

Doctor Liu nodded with difficulty, "It's a long story."

Seeing that he had no intention of explaining, Murong Xiao stopped asking.

only......

"Doctor Liu, have you had any news about that child in the past few years?" Murong Xiao asked.

Doctor Liu managed to calm himself down and asked, "You mean the child Mingxi left behind?"

Murong Xiao nodded.

Mingxi is his senior sister in Xuanying Sect.

He was destined to be the next Saint from the moment he was born. In order to avoid revealing any flaws, the Queen sent him to Xuanying Gate soon after he was born and told the public that the child had died. No one in the outside world knew that the Southern Dynasty had another eldest prince.

He left his mother's side when he was still an infant, and it was Senior Sister Mingxi who took care of him from childhood to adulthood. In his heart, she was his second mother, and his feelings for her were even closer than those for the Queen.

Unfortunately, the other party left when she was three years old, and he was sad for a long time.

Later he learned that his sister had passed away, leaving behind a daughter. He had been looking for her for the past fifteen years but had never found her.

The child seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, with no news of him ever seen again.

When this matter was mentioned, a face suddenly appeared in Doctor Liu's mind.

But this is impossible, she is the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion...

"Maybe the child has already...otherwise why couldn't he be found for so many years?" Doctor Liu said in a deep voice.

Murong Xiao had thought about this possibility, but he just couldn't accept it. Even if the child was no longer alive, he wanted to find her grave.

"Master, some things should be let go." Doctor Liu couldn't help but persuade.

Murong Xiao's eyes flickered slightly.

"Doctor Liu, I can't let it go."

Doctor Liu sighed silently and said nothing more.

Murong Xiao looked at the bustling street outside the window with a deep look in his eyes.

In the afternoon, Murong Xiao brought Murong Chang to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to express their gratitude.

Looking at the "Saint Lady Lingjia" greeting Duke Jiang and Madam Jiang, Jiang Ruoli was very alert.

After all, she discovered his identity, but she didn't know what his intention was in coming to Dacheng, so it would be better to be cautious.

She sat quietly aside, and Murong Chang beside her couldn't help but come over.

"Jiang Ruoli, can I go to your yard and take a look?"

"Little Prince, don't you know that you cannot enter an unmarried girl's boudoir at will?" Jiang Ruoli said calmly.

"All right......"

But she did think of an important person.

Jiang Ruoli put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Come to think of it, the emperor gave me a golden monkey as a reward before. It was very cute."

"Golden monkey?" Murong Chang asked in surprise, "Isn't that something only found in our Southern Dynasty?"

"Does the little prince want to take a look?" Jiang Ruoli asked.

"Okay."

Jiang Ruoli smiled.

"Fuguo, let Yuanxin bring Yuanbao here."
