But she was weak and could not defeat Qin Yaoguang.

Qin Yaoguang held her hand tightly and said angrily, "Mammy, you usually take care of me, why can't I take care of you this once?"

Fearing that she would refuse, Qin Yaoguang changed the subject and asked, "What happened when you left the Ningguo Mansion? Why did you end up in the house in the south of the city?"

To be honest, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep last night. When she was worried about Madam Deng, she even thought, what if Madam Deng was found, but she had lost her memory?

Fortunately, reality is not fiction, and such clichéd plots as amnesia will not easily occur.

As expected, Nanny Deng's attention was diverted.

"Chengnan?"

A look of confusion appeared on her face: "I have never been to the south of the city."

Just as she was about to speak, she looked at Qin Yaoguang and said, "Okay, Your Highness, let Guyu take everyone down."

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Guyu, but the matter is so complicated that the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Qin Yaoguang glanced at Guyu, who brought a lumbar pillow for Nanny Deng and helped her sit down before leaving with her people.

"Go to the kitchen and prepare some food that is easy to digest." Qin Yaoguang gave another reminder.

Yan Changqing stood there without moving.

As long as Qin Yaoguang didn't take the initiative to drive him away, he would not leave.

Qin Yaoguang looked at him several times, but he remained indifferent. He couldn't help but get angry: "Look at how tactful Guyu is."

"Mammy is safe and sound, but the person behind it has not been found yet."

Yan Changqing means: I am very useful.

Madam Deng smiled and said, "Master, please let the prince stay!"

She understands the interests of young couples.

Fearing that Qin Yaoguang would go back on her word, Nanny Deng hurriedly said, "Yesterday, I went to the Ningguo Mansion. The Second Madam did not show up. She only asked someone to hand over a pair of grandparents and grandchildren to me, saying that they were distant relatives and asked me to help take care of them."

Qin Yaoguang and Yan Changqing looked at each other and knew that there must be something fishy going on.

No matter how distant a relative he was, it was impossible for him to ask Aunt Deng for help. It must have been just an excuse, and he was actually entrusting it to Qin Yaoguang.

Madam Deng continued, "I just want to go back to the mansion and bring them back."

"As a result, when we reached the intersection of East Market, we saw someone startling the horse, so I took them both and hid under the eaves, intending to wait until the chaos was over before returning home."

At this point, she touched the back of her neck and said, "When you wake up again, it will be right here."

Madam Deng glanced at the sky outside and asked, "Master, it's already the second day? Have you seen the two people I brought with me?"

Qin Yaoguang shook his head.

It seems that Qu Liang’s previous speculation was correct.

Combining what Nanny Deng said, someone didn't want her to take those two people away, so they set a plan to scare the horses in a busy city in an attempt to separate them.

Unexpectedly, she was so loyal to her duty, so they had to knock her out and take Nanny Deng to the abandoned house in the south of the city.

Because they were discovered by Yan Changqing's men, they had to abandon Nanny Deng and transfer the two people in a hurry.

It seems that the key to the matter still lies with the grandparents and grandchildren.

"Mammy, please eat something first."

Nanny Deng had just woken up after experiencing this disaster. No matter what she wanted to do, Nanny Deng's health came first.

Qin Yaoguang raised his voice and asked someone to bring in food.

Guyu was holding a tray with a bowl of glutinous rice porridge and a cup of soothing medicinal tea on it.

Nanny Deng is too weak now and cannot be replenished. She needs to proceed step by step.

While she was eating, Qin Yaoguang went to the desk to get a sketchbook and a Leyang pen, preparing to draw two sketches based on Nanny Deng's description and let Yan Changqing take them to find the person.

At present, encouraged by the generous bonuses, the bookstore has sent a lot of samples to the mansion one after another.

Sketchbook is the paper that has been tested to be the most suitable for pencil sketching.

Seeing her holding paper and pen, Yan Changqing knew what she was going to do. He brought a high-backed chair to her and placed it in front of the couch, then helped her sit down.

Nanny Deng finished her bowl of porridge, took two sips of the medicinal tea, and felt indescribably happy when she saw the two people getting along so well.

Her complexion was much better than when she just woke up, so Qin Yaoguang asked, "Mammy, do you remember what the grandparents and grandchildren that He asked you to bring back looked like?"

Aunt Deng nodded: "Of course."

She was the nanny carefully selected by the Empress Dowager for the eldest princess. If she wanted to survive in the palace, the first thing she needed was the ability to judge people.

Not only do you need to recognize the concubines of each palace master, but you also need to know the servants who serve them, the favored eunuchs, etc., so that you can understand the network of relationships behind them and know what to say in front of whom.

Having met many people, Nanny Deng’s description of their appearance was very accurate.

As she spoke Qin Yaoguang was drawing, and in a short while she had drawn two portraits in the sketchbook.

The picture shows an old lady who is dark and thin, with sunken cheeks and deep wrinkles on her forehead, and a little boy of seven or eight years old.

Qin Yaoguang placed the book in front of Madam Deng and asked, "Madam, do you think it is them?"

Nanny Deng took a closer look and was shocked.

"Your Highness! Have you ever seen it?"

Qin Yaoguang smiled and said, "I have never seen it before. I just tried to draw it based on what Madam said just now."

Nanny Deng's memory was still fresh, so she described many of the physical features very accurately. And with her experience of painting based on Sudiya's description last time, she painted quickly and well this time.

"Mammy, take a look and see if there's anything that's not right. I'll change it up."

Since it is a portrait of a person, the more similar it is, the better.

Nanny Deng looked at it carefully and pointed out a few problems, which Qin Yaoguang corrected directly.

She returned to her desk with her sketchbook, took out a quill pen, dipped it in blue ink, and quickly copied a few pictures.

Because the tip of the pen is fine enough, very little ink falls on the paper.

The ink has dried before a painting is finished.

Qin Yaoguang skipped the step of letting the ink dry and handed the finished painting to Yan Changqing: "Please ask the prince to find someone."

Now, he can't stay with her any longer.

Yan Changqing saw through her intention at a glance, smiled indulgently, and reached out to take the few pages of drawing paper she handed over.

Qin Yaoguang swore that she saw the word "pampering" in Yan Changqing's eyes!

She turned her head away uncomfortably and walked over to sit next to Nanny Deng.

Yan Changqing then left.

"Your Highness, I'll have to go back to my room to take care of it. I'm making your room smell like medicine."

This is where Qin Yaoguang lives. Staying here, Nanny Deng feels uncomfortable because of her identity.

"Mammy——"

In front of her, Qin Yaoguang couldn't help but act like a spoiled child: "Mammy, you almost scared me to death. I waited so hard for you to wake up. Can you just feel sorry for me and stay with me for a while longer?"

As a child who had grown up under her watch, Nanny Deng could not stand her acting so coquettishly and had no choice but to agree to her request.

Qin Yaoguang immediately took out a deck of playing cards with great interest and asked Guyu and Xuelian to come in and play cards together.
