The aunt who entered the door was hit by Du Mingqian, and the things in her arms fell down and spilled on the floor.

Du Mingqian apologized apologetically, then bent down to pick it up, but saw that the aunt hurriedly picked it up before him, and hugged it in her arms with a strange expression, not showing the slightest bit for Du Mingqian to see.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the faint golden light from the items in the aunt's arms. Du Mingqian was puzzled, and the shopkeeper's loud voice rang out: "Tweety, why are you so reckless, you are tired from rushing back all the way, go to the back room to rest."

The aunt let out a puzzled "You..." and suddenly stopped, rolled her eyes, and followed the store into the back room.

The clerk in the store came up to entertain Du Mingqian and the two, his smile remained unchanged, but he sounded like he was about to chase away the customers - it seemed that the store owner wanted to have a private chat with the aunt, and he didn't want them to hear it.

Du Mingqian and Yan Shulou looked at each other, and they left hand in hand without disturbing each other.Yan Shulou's eyes were dazed, and the memories in his mind were churning. He couldn't take a few steps, and suddenly stopped: "Mingyu, I feel something is wrong!"

"What?" Du Mingqian paused, blissful in his heart, "You mean that old lady just now?"

"Well," Yan Shulou frowned, "Did you notice what the aunt dropped?"

"Well, they're all gold and silver jewelry... huh? No, look at the aunt's outfit and look, she doesn't look like a supplier to the store. Then why is she bringing jewelry into the store?"

"The problem is not this...but the style of the gold and silver jewelry, which looks familiar to me!"

"It looks familiar, could it be from the palace?"

"In the palace..." Yan Shulou slapped his palm and realized, "Yes, yes! I remember that when Nanny Sun was in the Shang Palace Bureau in her early years, she learned a lot of crafts of weaving gold and silver jewelry. After I was around, I often made it for her. Unfortunately, due to the defects of the material, many ornaments were scrapped, and she was not willing to be ecstasy with the discarded ornaments, and kept them on her body. I have seen them by accident. The jewelry in my arms is exactly the same as what Grandma Sun made!"

Du Mingqian raised his eyebrows and nodded towards him: "Then let's go back." Taking his hand, he landed on the back door of the jewelry store with lightness kung fu, and leaned against the wall, pouring his internal energy into his ears to eavesdrop on the two people in the house. people talking.

Due to the distance between them and the noise of people on the street, they have to be careful that someone will come to find them from time to time, so the conversation between the two people in the back room is not clear, and they can vaguely hear something like "pay first, then deliver the goods." "This is the top-grade jewelry she secretly brought out"... Later, because someone passed by, the two stopped eavesdropping, and when they wanted to listen again, the voice in the back room stopped.

Coming out from the back door, I happened to see my aunt walking out with her arms curled up, her hands empty.Following along the way, I saw her go into the steamed stuffed bun shop first, bought a big bag of white steamed buns, and then went to buy a bag of water, looking left and right, looking around with a strange expression.Du Mingqian and the two followed closely all the way, not daring to delay for a moment. Unexpectedly, when they thought they could follow the aunt to find Nanny Sun, the aunt turned a corner and entered an alley, and suddenly disappeared.

Du Mingqian and the two looked at each other, not daring to startle the snake, so they had to give up.After returning, Du Mingqian sketched out the appearance of the aunt in detail, and asked Yan Shulou to send someone to find out who she was.

But within a day, news came that the auntie was Widow Li who lived on the East Street. The alley she had lost before Yan Shu Tower was the home of Widow Li, and she had been coming and going frequently for nearly a month. In the back alleys in the east of the city.

With this news, Yan Shulou couldn't wait to pull Du Mingqian and guard at the door of Widow Li. After seeing her go out, he followed her all the way, and followed her to the back alley in the east of the city.

They didn't dare to say anything, and when they saw him turning into a back alley, they didn't dare to move forward. They didn't move forward until they had entered for a while.Soon, they heard the voice of Widow Li from outside a dilapidated hut.

"Sister Sun, I'll sell everything you gave me."

"Thank you..." The old man's voice entered his ears smoothly, as if the speaker hadn't spoken for many years, his voice was very low and hoarse.

Du Mingqian looked at Yan Shulou, and asked him with his eyes if he could recognize the voice. Yan Shulou shook his head regretfully, and replied softly: "It's been so long, I can't remember Nanny Sun's voice!"

Helpless, can only continue to eavesdrop.

Afterwards, the people inside didn't say much, and there was silence for about a moment. Widow Li seemed to be about to leave, so Yan Shulou and Du Mingqian hurried to the corner to avoid being discovered by Widow Li.

"Sister Sun, are you going to live in such a secretive way?"

After a long silence, no one uttered a sound. It was only after a sigh was let out that the old voice sounded again.

"I want to use the remaining money to help those in need, so it can be regarded as atonement for myself. I hope that her spirit in heaven can forgive me..."

"Forget it, Sister Sun, that's all I can help you with. You can take care of the rest on your own." With a soft sigh, the smoke and dust dispersed with the footsteps of Widow Li leaving.

Yan Shulou's eyes were locked on the dilapidated hut all the time, one step after another, he dragged Du Mingqian towards the hut.

Before reaching the door, the people inside sighed: "I know that I can't escape after all. A month ago, someone found out where I lived, and I moved away in a hurry. I don't want to be here today. I can't escape, let it go, it's all fate. A few days ago, Widow Li said that when she sensed someone following her, she should have been careful to leave, but I didn't expect... Forget it, I'm worthless, take it if you want .”

"It seems that you have already guessed that someone wants your life?"

The slightly deep voice passed through the eardrums, and Nanny Sun looked back in amazement: "You... are you?" The two men in front of me were ugly and very strange.

"Why, can't Nanny Sun hear my king's voice?" Yan Shulou narrowed his eyes, and the face of Nanny Sun in his memory completely overlapped with the person in front of him. He could be sure that the person in front of him was Nanny Sun.

"It's you!" Sun Nanny quickly recognized the person coming, looked at the person in front of her in astonishment, and then asked as if she wanted to be sure: "Your Highness Fifth?"

"That's right, it's the king! It seems that although Nanny Sun is old, her hearing power has not diminished in the slightest."

She thought that Nanny Sun would reply with a polite word, but unexpectedly, she asked in a daze, "Why...it's you, Your Highness?"
