After quietly finishing breakfast, Ye Yun went to the study alone. Not long after, Chu Ci and Heng Wu came in from outside.

"Master!" they both said in unison.

"Is there any progress in the matter that you were asked to investigate before? Hengwu, please tell me first." Ye Yun sat in front of the desk and got straight to the point.

"Yes! Back to the master, Hengwu has found out that the person living in Tao Yiju is indeed of royal blood!

Fourteen years ago, the drunken emperor favored a palace maid who was on duty at the Qinzheng Palace. Afterwards, the emperor was so angry about this incident that he transferred her away from the Qinzheng Palace and wanted to leave her to fend for herself.

Unexpectedly, this person was also a lucky person. Within a month, she was found to be pregnant with a dragon. The palace maid used the excuse of having a dragon as an excuse to blackmail the emperor in order to gain status. Instead, she aroused the emperor's anger and not only gave birth to a dragon in court.

The palace maid gave her abortion pills and ordered her to be thrown into the cold palace.

The following year, Yu Leng Palace gave birth to a baby boy, but not long after, the palace maid died of blood loss due to childbirth."

"Does Father know about this?"

Heng Wu shook his head and said: "Who would have thought that the child was so strong and survived being fed drugs."

"This matter must be kept strictly confidential and must not be spread out."

"Yes! Hengwu understands!"

As soon as Heng Wu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside the study.

"Come in!"

The door creaked open, and a boy came in from the outside: "I have seen the princess! Princess, two carriages came outside the door. They said they were from the eldest prince, Prince Yu's palace, and were ordered to come to deliver gifts."

"Oh?" Ye Yun glanced at Heng Wu and said, "Go and have a look."

"yes!"

After saying that, Heng Wu took the boy to the front yard.

"How is the investigation going at the Fourth Prince's Mansion?" Ye Yun continued.

"According to the address given by the master, my subordinates found Peng San. After some investigation, they found that this person had close contacts with salt merchants along the river and often visited the Fourth Prince's Mansion." Chu Ci said.

"It seems that the salt shop under Yu Wenyi's name is managed by this person."

After a short pause, Ye Yun said again: "Go and reveal the news to King Yu. By the way, do it in a secretive way and don't leave any clues."

"yes!"

"Also, prepare a customs clearance document to send to Xiyuan."

"Yes, my subordinate will do it right away."

"Well, let's go down."

Now that the difficult things have been dealt with, it's time to get down to business.

Ye Yun stood up and just walked to the door when Heng Wu came in from outside.

"Master, are you going out?"

"Well, have you settled the matter in the front yard?" Ye Yun said as he walked.

"They are all medicinal materials that nourish qi and blood. We have been ordered to put them in the warehouse," Heng Wu said.

"Well," Ye Yun hummed softly, then thought of Yu Wenqian's current situation and said, "Brother Huang has inconvenience in his legs and feet and needs to take medicine all year round. Later, you can go to the treasury and pick out some useful ones to send to Brother Huang."

.”

"Yes, Heng Wu noted it down."

"Tao Yiju, are you feeling peaceful recently?"

"Since entering the mansion, he has stayed in the courtyard and has never gone out."

"Let's go and have a look with me."

Tao Yi was sitting inside, and Chun Xin looked at the little master sitting in front of the desk, holding a pen and writing hard, with a smile in his eyes that he couldn't hide.

I really didn’t expect that I would still be able to leave the cold palace alive. Little sister, you should be relieved to see all this in the sky!

Thinking of her poor little sister who died young, the corners of Chunxin's eyes became moist.

"Mommy, what's wrong with you?" Liu'er put down his pen and jumped down from the chair. He was obviously thirteen years old, but due to years of malnutrition, he looked like an eight or nine-year-old child.

"I'm fine, my slave," Chun Xin wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "I'm so happy, my slave. I'm glad that the Sixth Prince finally got through it!"

"Mommy," Liu'er raised his head and looked at Chunxin intently and said, "Mama has been kind to Liu'er for so many years, and Liu'er has kept it all in her heart. Don't worry, Mom, Liu'er will definitely study hard and succeed in the future.

, let grandma enjoy happiness!"

"Well said!" The sudden voice attracted the attention of the two people. They both looked up at the same time and saw a petite figure coming against the light. Ye Yun looked at the child who was only as high as his own chest and praised: "As the saying goes, people

Even if you are poor and ambitious, you are so courageous at such a young age, so it is not in vain for me to save you!"

Unexpectedly, Ye Yun would come over suddenly. The two of them were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly saluted her.

"My servant pays homage to the eldest princess!"

"Liu'er has met the eldest princess!"

"No need to be polite, please get up." As she spoke, Ye Yun had already sat down. She glanced at Liu'er first, then moved her gaze to Chun Xin and said, "Are you still used to living here these days?"

"Thanks to the eldest princess for caring about me, everything is fine with me and my little master!"

"That's good. Heng Wu, you take grandma out for a walk. I have something to say to Liu'er alone."

"Yes! Nanny, please come this way."

"This..." Chunxin looked at Liu'er worriedly.

"Mommy, just go and go, it won't be a problem." Liu'er gave Chunxin a "Don't worry, I'm fine" look.

Chunxin then followed Hengwu out.

"I have investigated your identity clearly. You do have the blood of the Yuwen family flowing in your body, and you are my imperial brother."

Unexpectedly, Ye Yun would be so straightforward. Liu'er was a little stunned. He looked at Ye Yun in confusion. So, what would she do? Tell that person about this, or...send him back to the cold palace and let him go to any other place.

He fends for himself....

Thinking of the past that he couldn't bear to look back on, Liu'er's fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly, and a look of panic appeared on his face!

He doesn't want it! He doesn't want to go back to that cold room and live every day on the leftovers that others have eaten, living like a pig or a dog!

"You want to...send me back?" Liu'er tried hard to calm down, but he couldn't. The sound of chattering teeth mixed with the pronunciation of the words had already revealed all his emotions.

"This matter involves the royal family and is my father's private matter. As a child, I should not say anything."

Ye Yun's words completely knocked Liu'er back to the bottom. He lowered his head in despair and remained motionless.

"However," Ye Yun changed the subject and said, "If you don't want to go back, I can help you."

Hearing this, Liu'er suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Yun in disbelief: "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, but it depends on how you choose."

"What's the meaning?"

"Has grandma told you about your life experience?"

Liu'er nodded silently.

Ye Yun continued: "What is your situation? I don't need to say more. You know it yourself. Now you have only two options. One, confess your identity to your father, but no one can guarantee the outcome. Two

, give up the identity of the prince and stay in the princess mansion as my adopted brother."

"I choose two!" Liu'er gave the answer almost as soon as Ye Yun finished speaking.

"Don't regret it?" Ye Yun asked.

Liu'er's eyes were firm and he said: "I will never regret it!"

His biological mother was just a humble palace maid. So what if she recognized her? In that person's heart, he was already a stillborn child!

"Okay, from today on, you are Wen Zheng, my adopted brother. I will find a master to enlighten you. After a while, you can go to the Imperial College to study."

"Yes! Everything is arranged by the eldest princess."

"Just call me Imperial Sister from now on. You can continue your work. I will leave first."

With that said, Ye Yun stood up and went straight out of the room.

Outside the door, Heng Wu saw Ye Yun coming out and hurriedly followed him. Chun Xin, while looking at the retreating figure, walked quickly to Wen Zheng and said, "Liu'er, what did the eldest princess tell you?"
