"Is there only about thirty villagers in the entire Linjing Village? And they are all middle-aged and elderly men?

Are there no women? No children?"

"Your Royal Highness, my subordinates and others searched around the village and found no women or children."

The guard reported back.

"This is really strange. The reason Gu knew there were puppies here was because a woman selling vegetables in the vegetable market told Gu's subordinates.

Isn’t that woman from this village?”

The prince felt even more strange when he recalled this incident.

"Brother Imperial, just ask someone to investigate it carefully when you get back. Now let's go back and report this matter to our father."

Bai Hejin urged.

The prince nodded, "Okay, let's leave first."

The prince hugged Bai Tutu and was about to go out, but Bai Tutu stretched out his little head and opened his mouth with a milky voice.

"Brother Imperial, Second Brother, we have left and the villagers have also left. What will happen to those little dogs?"

Bai Tutu was still thinking about the puppies she saw in the old man's yard.

The prince choked, "If Tu'er hadn't said anything, the emperor would have almost forgotten about the puppy.

Do you want a puppy?"

Bai Tutu nodded hurriedly, "I want it!"

"If you want it, let's go get the puppy. If the villagers can come back, we can return the puppy to them then."

Although the prince felt that Linjing Village might not exist in the future.

But there is nothing certain yet, so naturally he won't let Bai Tutu hear it.

Just because the prince didn't say it, it didn't mean that Bai Hejin wouldn't say it either.

"Tu'er, after we leave, no one will take care of these puppies anymore.

If we don't take them away, they will either starve to death or wander around.

So Tu'er, do you want to take all the puppies away?

If they are taken away, Tuer will have to keep them from now on."

Bai Hejin was talking to Bai Tutu, and his eyes fell on the puppies who were still squealing in the kennel.

There are almost five puppies in this litter, but the mother dog is not here, or I don't know if she is still alive.

Bai Tutu got down from the prince's arms, squatted in front of the doghouse, stretched out her little hands to touch the puppy, and then touched the puppy.

The puppies seemed to know that only this little milk dumpling could save them now.

Each one was squealing and turning its belly for the white dodder to touch.

White Tutu couldn't put it down, and she really couldn't bear to leave these puppies alone.

She raised her little face and looked at the prince and Bai Hejin.

"Brother Emperor, second brother, can Tu'er raise the dogs? If there was no silver to raise the dogs, the dogs would be too pitiful!"

The prince and Bai Hejin did not hesitate and said almost in unison.

"Of course you can raise it!"

After finishing speaking, the two brothers looked at each other and smiled at each other.

"Then Tu'er will take all the dogs back!"

Bai Tutu stood up, straightening her back, as if she had conquered her kingdom.

That dashing and high-spirited look made both the prince and Bai Hejin laugh.

"Someone, take the puppy away."

The prince gave an order, and the guards came in and took the puppies away in one go.

The three brothers and sisters went out to Linjing Village and got on the carriage. Before the carriage started, Bai Tutu opened the curtains and took a look at Linjing Village.
