The carriage glided slowly by, and suddenly a haunting figure jumped into my sight.

The woman who was walking on the side of the road with her maid felt a gaze falling on her and looked up.

Li Yuanqiao hurriedly lowered the carriage curtain.

Li Shuangwan immediately caught the panicky look.

She lifted a corner of the car curtain in surprise to look, but the street was so crowded with people coming and going that she had no idea what her brother had seen.

He was looking down with his head, tickling his fingers shyly, but the tips of his ears were slightly red.

He pursed his lips and understood.

It seems that my brother has someone in his heart.

She had to find out who her brother loved.

If the girl is unmarried, let her mother go and propose marriage immediately.

Half an hour ago, after the servant from the Duke's Mansion came to report, Lord Zhu hurried back to the mansion from the Dali Temple and waited.

Old Madam Zhu could no longer sit still and asked her servants to check at the gate of the house from time to time.

Although Mr. Zhu was sitting upright in his study handling official business, his mind was wandering outside with his wife.

He didn't even notice that the document in his hand was upside down.

The servants serving beside him glanced at him from time to time, but did not dare to remind him.

Ever since he saw Yanyan at the palace banquet the day before yesterday, Lord Zhu told his wife about the matter as soon as he returned home.

Mrs. Zhu wiped away tears when she heard this.

Half a year ago, after Wanwan was burned to death, Old Madam Zhu almost cried her eyes blind. Fortunately, Yang Luo was there and stabilized her condition.

But in the past six months, every time she thought about how she had not been able to take good care of her granddaughter who had lived in the frontier for many years and who died suddenly and tragically, her heart ached.

"They're here, master, madam, they're here, the son-in-law and the daughter, the cousin and the son-in-law are all here." The servant shouted and ran inside.

Mr. Zhu's beard curled up and said, "You're here, so come. What are you shouting about? You're all so unruly."

The servant serving the pens and ink pursed his lips and smiled.

Master Zhu glared at him and said, "Don't laugh!"

"Master, you have the document upside down."

Old Master Zhu looked at the document in his hand, his eyebrows jumped, and he pretended to hit the servant: "You are so sharp-eyed."

The servant laughed and dodged away.

The nanny hurriedly helped Madam Zhu walk towards the gate of the mansion.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw the family of four I had been thinking about for a long time jumping down from the carriage.

Zhu Anhe and Li Huaiying hurried forward to support Mrs. Zhu on both sides.

But Old Madam Zhu's eyes were fixed on Li Shuangwan who was standing behind the two of them. Her lips trembled and tears flowed out.

Old Master Zhu's voice became solemn. Although he had doubts after seeing her that day, he did not dare to tell his wife about it. "Go to the mansion first."

Li Huaiying stepped forward and said softly, "Dad, we have something to say to you two elders."

Seeing his son-in-law speak so seriously, Mr. Zhu glanced at Li Shuangwan behind him and nodded, "Okay, go to my study."

As soon as my cousin Zhu Qingmeng received the news, he put down his book and ran over. When he saw Li Shuangwan, his whole body was shocked and his mouth opened slightly in disbelief.

He was sure that the person in front of him was his younger cousin!

My late cousin is not dead.

Cousin Zhu Rongsu followed behind Zhu Qingmeng. When she saw them coming, she smiled.

Several people arrived at Mr. Zhu's study. After the servant served tea, Mr. Zhu sent all the servants out.

He asked his trusted men to guard the yard, and Li Huaiying also brought a few of his trusted soldiers to guard the gate together to prevent anyone from coming in.

The door to the study was also closed.

"Grandfather, grandmother, I am sorry to have caused you two to worry as your unfilial grandson. I am Wanwan." Li Shuangwan bowed deeply to them.

The two old men have aged a lot compared to half a year ago. My grandfather originally had only a few sparse white hairs, but now his hair is completely white.

Although my grandmother had a headache problem before, she was still in good spirits. But now she looks so haggard.

It's all because of her.

Old Madam Zhu's body trembled violently, she rushed forward and hugged the man tightly in her arms, tears falling uncontrollably.

"Grandma knows, Grandma knows, my Wanwan is not going to die so easily, Grandma's Wanwan is not dead. My Wanwan, you love Grandma so much."

The grandfather and grandson hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Old Master Zhu's eyes were also red: "Wanwan, you, how could you hide this from us? You know, your grandmother and I... it's good enough to be alive, it's good enough to be alive."

"I'm sorry, Grandfather and Grandma. This is an urgent matter, and it's very dangerous. You two elders are in Shengjing City. It's the beginning of the year, and there's a lot of communication between families. I'm afraid I'll cause trouble for you, so I kept it a secret from you."

"Hurry up, Wanwan, hurry up." Madam Zhu helped Li Shuangwan up from the ground. "Old man, Wanwan is thinking about us. She is right. There are so many people around. What if someone finds out?"

Li Shuangwan didn't dare to ask her grandmother to help her, so she quickly stood up, helped her grandmother to sit on the chair, and sat down beside her.

Old Madam Zhu held Li Shuangwan's hand tightly, unwilling to let go.

Zhu Rongshu walked slowly to Old Madam Zhu and said, "Grandma, actually, I have always known that my cousin is alive."

Several people looked at her.

Zhu Rongshu's scalp tingled when she was stared at: "Hey, why are you looking at me like that? I'm not telling you for your safety."

Madam Zhu tapped Zhu Rongshu's forehead and said, "You even hid it from me and your grandfather. I think you are just asking for trouble."

Zhu Rongshu rubbed her forehead and said, "It's because my cousin didn't allow me to say it. Hehe, grandma, you see, my cousin is doing so well. The process is not important."

Old Madam Zhu glared at her.

"Grandma, you are biased. You said that my cousin was right when she hid the truth from you. But you said that my granddaughter was wrong when she hid the truth from you."

Old Madam Zhu laughed angrily and said, "You are so clever."

Zhu Rongshu walked to the other side and took Mrs. Zhu's arm: "Grandma, you love your granddaughter and your cousin, I understand."

Zhu Qingmeng's body was tense, his hands were clenched into fists, and he looked at Li Shuangwan with burning eyes.

But after a few breaths, he stopped again.

Mr. Zhu looked at his daughter, son-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter: "There must be a reason. Tell me."

Li Shuangwan stood up and said, "Grandfather, let me tell you about this matter."

"Sit down and talk."

For a full half hour, the only voice in the study was Li Shuangwan's clear voice.

Even though they had heard it once, Li Huaiying and his wife were still filled with hatred when they heard it again.

After the last word was uttered, silence fell in the study.

Zhu Rongshu only knew a rough outline of this matter. Now, after hearing her cousin talk about it, she became so angry that her eyes turned red.

After a long while, Boss Zhu spoke in a hoarse voice, "You mean, the substitute that the Crown Prince found is the Ninth Prince of Daliang? He was sent to Northern Jin by the Queen Mother of Daliang in his early years, but was abducted by human traffickers and trained to be a secret guard of Prince Heng's Palace?"
