After being busy for a few days, Xie Jiu was finally laid to rest. King Dongshan felt like he was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Just when he was about to give up for a few days, Lu Zhiang came to visit again.

He is investigating the kidnapped children from the Chen family and there has been some progress.

General Chen's only son was doing well in the Chen family and had not been kidnapped, but the child of the third master of the Chen family told others that he had gone to his maternal grandparents' home.

Luozi traced the matter to the maternal grandparents' home of the third master of the Chen family, and found that no relatives had brought their children to visit there recently or in the past three years.

In other words, the child of the third master of the Chen family was indeed missing.

What’s more, the missing one was the only son of the third master of the Chen family. He had five daughters, but only this one son, and he was usually treated like an eyeball.

How is it possible that he would be taken to visit someone else's house for such a long time and not come back?

But there is still no clue as to who the child kidnapped in General Chen's home is.

In addition to his wife, General Chen had two concubines. The concubines had never given birth, so it was unknown where this child came from.

Does General Chen have a secret mistress?

It is not uncommon for wealthy families to keep a mistress or a concubine.

But the Chen family has a strict family tradition, and I have never heard of a man in the Chen family making a fool of himself for any woman.

Prince Dongshan thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. We can ask Dali Temple Shaoqing Chen Jin about this matter. He had to try the Ninth Prince a few days ago. I'll ask him if there is any result when I have time."

Lu Zhiang breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more at ease.

Chen Jin, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, has been having a headache these days. The interrogation of the Ninth Prince was not going very smoothly. The Ninth Prince is a man with deep scheming.

No matter how Lord Chen asked, the Ninth Prince just said he didn't know.

Chen Jin began to miss Prince Dongshan and wondered whether he should invite him to give Prince Ninth a beating as well.

Oh! I can only think about it.

As a result, someone reported that King Dongshan had visited the Dali Temple.

Chen Jin jumped up, straightened his official uniform, and hurried to the door to greet him.

Prince Dongshan was soon invited to the seat of honor. He took a sip of the Dali Temple's tea with great courtesy. Pah, pah, it was still as unpalatable as ever.

Anyway, he wasn't here for tea, so he asked straight to the point:

"How was the trial of the Ninth Prince?"

Chen Jin immediately put on a bitter face and said resentfully:

"The Ninth Prince insisted that he didn't know anything, or else he said that he was following the orders of the Fourth Prince."

That means there is no progress.

Prince Dongshan pulled out a list and said, "This list contains the officials in the court who have had more or less contact with the Ninth Prince. This is all I can do for you. The rest depends on your own investigation."

The Dali Temple needs to investigate one by one which people are related to the case.

The Ninth Prince cannot be moved, but his left and right arms, as well as those minions outside, can be moved at will.

Even if the Ninth Prince doesn't confess, it will be the same even if his subordinates confess.

Chen Jin knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to King Dongshan.

The King of Dongshan is a living Bodhisattva!

He now seemed to have reached a dead end. There was no further progress in the case and he was about to be held accountable by his superiors. King Dongshan really saved him from dire straits.

The corners of King Dongshan's mouth twitched, but there was no need to do so.

After all, he was the Si Dian, and in the past he had sent people to monitor the movements of each prince, so no one knew better than him which prince was close to which court official.

However, he had been rather passive in the past and had not carefully read the information. They were all brothers, and even if they were not close, he did not want to turn against them.

He was too lazy to care about some princes abusing their power for personal gain as long as it wasn't too serious.

But, treason is an exception!

King Dongshan was a good person and told Chen Jin what Lu Zhiang had found out.

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple immediately deployed personnel to investigate. He finally had a general direction and began a new investigation with great enthusiasm.

Prince Dongshan didn't want to be tortured by the bitter tea soup from the Dali Temple anymore, so he stood up and left. Before Chen Jin could see him off, he disappeared.

Weidong stayed in that remote town for several days before he gradually got better.

Cui'er's careful and considerate service indeed played a big role.

Ye Qingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Manager Wei was about to recover.

Wei Dong did not wait until everything was ready. He had already wasted many days here, and he could not allow his personal affairs to delay the caravan's business.

He felt that he was now able to ride a horse, so he urged Ye Qingfeng to hurry up.

Ye Qingfeng was not at ease letting Manager Wei ride a horse. If something happened again, he would beat himself to death.

Besides, the little girl Cui'er doesn't know how to ride a horse.

He spent a lot of money to buy a horse-drawn carriage. Although it was not a luxury car with shock absorbers like the one he had at home, it was at least much safer than riding a horse.

So Weidong had to take a carriage and was escorted by Ye Qingfeng back to the courtyard Weidong bought in Ji'an. Unexpectedly, he saw Shi Yidong's family there.

Ye Qingfeng knew Shi Yi's boss. He was personally selected by Shi Yi to assist Wei Dong in managing the caravan.

After all, such a large caravan needs loyal people with strong fighting ability to keep the situation under control.

Ye Qingfeng is the most suitable person chosen by Shi Yi after careful selection. He is skilled in martial arts but also easy to get along with. He does not like to interfere in the management of the caravan, but can obey the orders of the shopkeeper.

He and Wei Dong had a very good understanding when they worked together for the first time, so Shi Yi completely handed over the safety of the caravan and Wei Dong to Ye Qingfeng.

Shi Yi is really busy today.

I have just finished performing surgery on Master Wangyue's bodyguard. These are time-consuming and labor-intensive delicate surgeries that require the assistance of many sophisticated instruments to complete.

Fortunately, Mr. Gao was reliable. Not long after she sent the drawings back, the equipment she needed was made and delivered quickly.

Shi Yi and Master Xuan Qing also prepared all the medicines needed for the operation in advance.

Master Xuan Qing watched the operation with great excitement. Shi Yi first performed the operation on a guard who had lost his strength after injuring his arm.

He was injected with a tube of medicine near the injured part of his arm. It was the first time that Master Xuan Qing saw an intramuscular injection so much that his eyes were almost staring into the guard's flesh.

It's extremely rare.

The guard gradually lost the feeling of his arm.

Shi Yi took a needle and poked the guard's arm several times under his eyelids and asked him, "Do you feel it?"

The guard widened his eyes and said in horror: "I didn't feel anything." He clearly saw the doctor's silver needle piercing into his skin, so how come he couldn't feel anything at all?

I feel inexplicably anxious.

Shi Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's right that you don't feel anything. How can I perform the surgery if you can feel anything?"

Taoist Xuan Qing brought a bowl of medicine and handed it to the guard's mouth: "Drink it." This is a double insurance.

The guard frowned and drank it in two big gulps. It tasted really bad.
