"I thank the Princess of Qingyang for her help."

"Princess Qingyang, please accept my respect!"

"My two lords, please stop being so polite. I cannot bear it." Yun Zhihan quickly helped them up.

The emperor looked at Yun Zhihan's gentle appearance and secretly regretted in his heart. If he had fallen in love with Yun Zhihan at first sight, perhaps everything would be different. She would definitely be my queen.

Well, it doesn’t matter. Brother Xie is gone, so just leave the matter of taking care of Zhihan to him.

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but smile, "Thank you, Madam, is there anything else you want to tell me? If there is nothing else, let the two adults take the person away."

"Your Majesty, my Lords, please be patient."

Just then, the imperial physician came in.

"I am here to pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

"Doctor Wang, please excuse me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Doctor Wang," Yun Zhihan said, "Please inform the emperor of the two children's conditions truthfully."

"Yes, County Lord."

She first settled the two children down and then took them to the outer room.

"Please tell me, Doctor Wang."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Doctor Wang explained, "Both children have been poisoned by a strange poison that can invade the brain and cause confusion or even amnesia."

"After checking medical books, I found that this poison originated from the South Country, and some antidote herbs are only available in the South Country. Thanks to the Princess of Qingyang, I was able to find some replacements from the pharmacy, so I can treat it."

"Oh?" The emperor was surprised and asked, "How did Madam Xie get these herbs?"

"Your Majesty, these are just some alternative herbs, not from the South. I have been traveling with my parents since I was a child, and I know the uses of some herbs."

"These herbs were shipped from Jinling. My medicine shop happened to have some leftovers, so I brought them here."

"I see." Zhihan is really amazing. How could there be such a wonderful woman in this world? The emperor became more and more satisfied with her, and his possessiveness became stronger.

When the two ministers heard this, they felt both admiration and endless gratitude towards Yun Zhihan.

They all secretly determined in their hearts that no matter what happened in the future, they must speak on the side of the county lady.

Doctor Wang continued, "In addition to the toxins in their bodies, the two women also had extremely severe external injuries, which were caused by long-term whipping. It is also because of this that they have developed serious psychological disorders."

"It may take about a year for the physical injuries to heal, but I cannot guarantee the recovery of the mental injuries."

After hearing these words, Taifu Shi and Inspector Yu both regretted deeply. If they had not been so careless in the beginning, how could they have let the bad guys succeed?

"Your Majesty!" Shi Guochang knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor.

"What is this Master Shi doing? You are my teacher, how can I accept such a great gift?"

But Master Shi could not get up, and instead pleaded, "Your Majesty, I am an incompetent minister who failed to protect my little daughter. Now that she has been found, please punish Du Yulang severely and redress my daughter's injustice!"

Having said this, Lord Yu also knelt down and said the same thing.

"Please stand up, my two beloved ministers. I will definitely give you justice!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

With the help of Yun Zhihan, the two men left with the two women.

In order to reassure them, the emperor specially sent two royal carriages to escort them out through the back door.

The people waiting outside couldn't help but feel curious when they saw that only the emperor and Yun Zhihan came out, but since the emperor was there, they didn't dare to ask.

Prince Fenyang couldn't wait to know the result and asked, "Your Majesty, where are Master Shi and Lord Yu?"

"Don't worry, my dear brother. They have already left with their people."

As soon as the words fell, Murong Che's heart finally died, "Your Majesty means that those two girls are really daughters of noble families?"

"That's right!" The emperor looked at Yun Zhihan with a smile on his face, "Thanks to Princess Qingyang, I will reward you handsomely."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." She was secretly delighted and begged secretly, hoping that more silver would be the best reward.

"Somebody come!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"Pass on my decree, reward the Princess of Qingyang County with ten thousand taels of gold and ten rolls of silk and satin, and select a few handy maids and nurses from the palace to help manage the affairs of the shelter."

"Yes!"

"I thank the emperor for his reward."

"No gifts."

Seeing the emperor so excited, the Chief Censor could not contain his excitement.

"Your Majesty! Your son..."

"Oh, I didn't forget!" He was so happy that he almost forgot.

"Madam Xie, this is the Minister of the Imperial Censorate, Chen Yu. His son has been missing for five years. I would like to ask if there is any news about him?"

"I've met Mr. Chen."

"County Lady, my son's name is Chen Yuntang. He disappeared when he was five years old. May I ask if you have any news? Oh, by the way, my son has been weak since he was young."

After hearing this, Yun Zhihan quickly asked Tongzi, "Is there such a person?"

"Hanhan, this minister is quite lucky. His son is still alive and is now in the Shang Mansion. He is Shang Peng's male favorite, who was just bought a few days ago."

"Where was this child before?"

"The brothel is the one you took Bai Yuan to."

Yun Zhihan took a breath of cold air. This Shang Peng was truly a beast. She was glad that nothing happened between Bai Jin and him.

"Master Chen, most of the missing boys were taken away to be dead servants. Weak children like these are often sent to places of entertainment."

"What?" Chen Yu was unwilling to accept this fact. That was his legitimate son, how could he go to that kind of place?

"Don't worry, sir. Do you still remember what he looks like?"

"Remember, I remember!"

"Jin Shang!"

"Yes, County Lord."

"Call the painter."

"Yes!"

"Master Chen, the artist will draw the child according to your description in a moment. Please try to think of some characteristics."

"it is good!"

While watching them draw, Yun Zhihan was thinking about how to tell everyone that the child was now in business.

Ever since the Dali Temple began to intervene in the matter, Shang Shangshu was implicated by his son and is now locked up at home for reflection.

Shang Peng was thrown into jail, and she couldn't tell the emperor directly that this person was bought by a merchant for a huge price.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to let her eldest son handle the matter.

Half an hour later, the painter finished the painting.

"Your Majesty, County Lady, this is what my son looked like when he was five years old."

"Very cute." Yun Zhihan praised.

"Yes! He is my most beloved child. If the county lady can help me find him, I will be very grateful."

"I am sorry for the trouble, Zhongcheng. The emperor will show sympathy to you all and will definitely send someone to do his best to search for you."

After saying that, Yun Zhihan handed the painting to Bai Yuan, whispered a few words in his ear, and then left.

"What did Madam Xie say to Attendant Xie just now?" the Emperor asked curiously.

"Nothing, just ask him to go to the nearby brothel and ask for more money, don't be too stingy."
