The room was quiet, Hua Jingyao looked focused, and her mother in her previous life was the one with the surname Gong.

Chen Xiao continued: "Mr. Yue said that he had rescued a woman named Gong Luo in the Central Plains. Gong Luo was secretly sent by the Gong family to search for famous Han doctors. Gong Luo was disabled and came to the Central Plains after working hard. She said that her family was cursed by God and most of the children born were incomplete. After asking in detail, Mr. Yue told Gong Luo that he suspected that the problem did not appear only on their side, but that there might be problems with the southern surname. Mr. Yue suggested that they try to marry a foreign surname. After hearing this, Gong Luo shook his head and said that the elders in the clan would not agree, but she was still very grateful to Mr. Yue and wanted to give money. Mr. Yue didn't want it. Gong Luo said that the Nangong family made a living by growing herbs. She said several medicinal herbs were only available in the Nangong family. Gong Luo said that if one day, Mr. Yue would need it, he could go to Wanghunling, Qianzhou. She also left a sign with an elephant pattern for Mr. Yue. Later, when Mr. Yue asked me for medicine, he returned the sign to the Nangong family."

Hua Jingyao understood that although she knew that the elders in the clan would not agree, the woman named Gong Luo still told the elders in the clan what Yue Li said, but the Nan family did not agree, so she tried for a few years and still did not give birth to a healthy child. The Gong family had to make a decision, take the risk, hide it from the Nan family, and secretly abducted the extremely handsome Han man, Master Hua San, and let him give birth to Linlin with the healthiest woman in the Gong family.

But the Nan family still found out about this. The girl from the Gong family was worried that Linlin would be killed, so she asked the people around her to hand Linlin over to Master Hua San.

So now, why do the Nan and Gong look for someone together?

However, the veil seemed to be always held by the palace girl, and the only clue was not handed over to Nan Hongbin.

Even when I went to Linjia Embroidery House to find the palace master, the palace girl went alone, and Nan Hongbin probably didn't know this clue.

Hua Jingyao suddenly realized and said, "Do you still remember the case of Zhang Shanchang killing his wife? All the babies born to Zhang Shanchang and his wife are disabled. My father said that it was because they were relatives. I thought it was strange at the time, why did my father understand these things? It turned out to be because of the Nangong family."

Because the woman who was sent by the Gong girl to send her children told the truth to Mr. Hua San and told Mr. Hua San about the reason why they snatched their children, Mr. Hua San understood the truth.

"Does Mr. Hua San also know about the Nangong family?" Chen Xiao asked.

Hua Jingyao then remembered that she had not told Chen Xiao about her father.

Should this be said?

A few thoughts flashed through Hua Jingyao's head. She was waiting for Chen Xiao here, just to know what Yue Li said. Yes, she had no intention of telling her father's story from the beginning.

It’s not that I can’t believe in Chen Xiao, but...

Seeing that she was a little hesitant, Chen Xiao changed the subject and said, "There is an Uncle Yang in the Duke's Mansion. He has two granddaughters. He has followed his father to open a martial arts school in his hometown since he was a child. Uncle Yang missed them very much and always wanted to bring them to the capital. However, there is no such task in the Duke's Mansion. I wonder if you lack manpower here, their martial arts skills are very good."

Hua Jingyao's eyes lit up. She had one for a martial arts woman, and Li Bu'er was just there. Unfortunately, Li Bu'er could not be considered her. So she said to go to the Lin Family Embroidery Shop, and Li Bu'er took twenty taels of silver from her.

"I lack manpower, I lack too much." Hua Jingyao smiled.

"Okay, I'll let them go to the Princess's Mansion tomorrow and let Your Highness take a look first." Chen Xiao said.

"I am the one who lacks manpower, and my mother doesn't need it." Hua Jingyao frowned.

Chen Xiao smiled: "It is because you want to use them for you that you have to ask His Highness the Princess to take a look first."

Hua Jingyao rolled her eyes. Chen Xiao was frightened by the princess that night.

"I'm looking for you today, there's actually one more thing." Chen Xiao said.

"What's the matter?" Hua Jingyao asked.

"Do you still remember the batch of watermelons that Fujian paid tribute during the Spring Festival? It was half missing on the road." Chen Xiao reminded.

Hua Jingyao remembered that this is the case. There is a small island in Fujian that pays watermelons to the palace every year during the Chinese New Year. The number of watermelons tribute this year is very small, which is inconsistent with the tribute list. It is said that something went wrong halfway, and the emperor asked the eldest prince to ask about this matter.

In Hua Jingyao's opinion, this is a matter that cannot be even smaller. The emperor handed over this matter to the eldest prince, which was just a formality, so as not to think that the emperor did not care about this tribute and would make mistakes next year.

"Have you found out the problem with that batch of watermelons?" Hua Jingyao said.

Chen Xiao nodded: "It's found out, and it's not easy. This matter was left to the Lord Highness to investigate. Now the matter is serious and the Lord Highness is inconvenient to leave the capital, so I want to go out for him."

The prince must not leave the capital for a hundred miles without an order. Even if he has an order, the emperor will not let the eldest prince leave the capital. Zhao Qian is deposed, the third prince and the fourth prince are still young. If the eldest prince has a good or bad fortune in his life, there will be no adult prince around the emperor who can be entrusted with important responsibilities.

Seeing such an important thing, Chen Xiao passed by just a few words, and guessed that there must be a secret in the middle. Chen Xiao could not say it, and she shouldn't ask.

She said, "When will you leave Beijing?"

"The day after tomorrow." Chen Xiao said.

"So urgent? Are you enough staff?" Hua Jingyao remembered the two women Chen Xiao wanted to use for her.

"Enough, Gong Hou has dispatched a hundred Feiyu Guards to accompany me. Your Majesty has given an order that I can call the soldiers of the guards along the way."

Chen Xiao's words were calm, but Hua Jingyao had already heard that this trip would be dangerous and important, otherwise the emperor would not mobilize the military power of the garrison.

"Well, when you come back, I will wash your dust in Jiangnanchun."

Hua Jingyao stood on tiptoe and patted Chen Xiao on the shoulder. Suddenly, she remembered an important thing.

"Hey, in ten days, it will be the spring banquet in the palace. You are the protagonist at the spring banquet, so you will not attend?"

Chen Xiao laughed, looked at her, and said meaningfully: "I didn't think I was going."

"Didn't you say you agreed?" Hua Jingyao asked.

That’s right, the princess’s wife said that Chen Xiao once personally agreed to the Queen Mother that she would attend the spring banquet.

"I agreed at that time, but later there was a change and I didn't want to go there anymore. Even if I didn't go to Fujian, I wouldn't attend."

If Chen Xiao doesn't want to attend the spring banquet, he has many ways. He has a stomachache on the way to the palace, falls off his horse, or gets dirty after entering the palace, but changes his clothes and never returns.

He doesn't want to go, that's not.
