Old Madam Ye knelt down in front of Lin Yiwan and said, "Miss Wanwan, the reason our Ye family has a bloodline is all thanks to your superb medical skills. Now that they are in danger, you are pushing your own child out as bait. I, an old woman, am too embarrassed to bother you again!"

Madam Ye also felt guilty and blamed herself. When the queen and the second prince died, she still harbored resentment towards Lin Yiwan.

She felt that she shouldn't just stand by and watch someone die!

But now, seeing that she was willing to use her own children as bait, she felt that she was not a human being.

She cried and said, "Madam Hou, my mother is right. You can't let your children put themselves in danger again!"

Lin Yiwan reached out and helped Madam Ye up, saying, "Those two children are the orphans of a distinguished general. They must not be harmed. Even if it's not for them, there are still many innocent children in the civilian families. They must be rescued!"

Madam Ye burst into tears: "How can we save her?"

Lin Yiwan turned to look at Lin Ran, "Uncle, I need to talk to the kids. Since we're going to use this as bait, we need to make sure they understand the dangers. Whether to do it or not is entirely up to them!"

Lin Ran said awkwardly: "Wanwan, but they are still young!"

Lin Yiwan shook her head. "They're not young anymore, they understand everything they should understand, especially my eldest brother Zhan Mu. Although he's usually taciturn, he's got his mind set straight. Zhan Xuan is his thug, he'll hit wherever he points his finger!"

Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh. His two little nephews were indeed like that.

One is still and the other is moving, complementing each other.

After Lin Yiwan sent off Madam Ye and her mother-in-law, she returned to Marquis Zhan Yi’s residence.

When she came to the room where the two young masters were resting, she saw Zhan Mu reading a book under the lamp.

He was very surprised by his mother's arrival and couldn't help asking, "Why did mother come to our room so late at night?"

Lin Yiwan smiled and said, "I came to see you guys. Why are you still reading? Watch your eyes!"

Zhan Mu couldn't help but say, "Mom, I'm not studying. I'm helping my younger brother with his homework. He said today that the dog next door took away the homework he wrote yesterday. The teacher didn't believe it and punished him, but he didn't want to give up, so he caught the big black dog next door and forced it to spit out the homework!"

Lin Yiwan was shocked when she heard this. Is Zhan Xuan so naughty?

Why didn't she know?

She turned to look at the little guy lying on the bed with his mouth drooling, and she wanted to slap him a few times.

She frowned and said, "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell mother right away? Mother will definitely beat his ass to pieces!"

Zhan Mu narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Mom, my brother didn't lie. The big black dog really ate his homework because he did spit it out. The teacher and classmates saw it!"

Lin Yiwan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She didn't expect that Zhan Xuan really had a way to make the big black dog vomit.

She asked worriedly, "Is the dog okay?"

Zhan Mu replied, "Of course it's fine, but it's a little listless. I begged Aunt Xiaoruan to get it some medicine!"

Lin Yiwan nodded and rubbed his head. "Don't help him with his own schoolwork, otherwise, he will only become more dependent on you in the future!"

Zhan Mu frowned, "Mother, he's not interested in this. Asking him to do his homework is like torture. His little butt keeps moving around. It makes me upset!"

Lin Yiwan said, "So you let him go out and play with the sticks, and then when he comes back tired, he falls into a deep sleep?"

Zhan Mu said with envy, "My brother is really good at playing with a stick. He can even make cracks when he hits the stick that Daddy made for him on the ground!"

Lin Yiwan was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect Zhan Xuan's stick skills to be so powerful.

He has some good points after all!

She said in a serious tone, "Amu, mother wants to give you and your brother an important task. Do you want to do it?"

Zhan Mu stared at her with excitement: "Mother, how important is it?"

Lin Yiwan lowered her eyes and pondered, "Have you heard that several boys have gone missing in the capital recently? Your great-uncle is so worried about this case that he can't sleep!"

Zhan Mu nodded heavily. "I heard that the young master of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, Wang Jianshu, is also missing. Ah Xuan and I are very worried about him. He is Ah Xuan's little tail and used to follow him wherever he went!"

Lin Yiwan spoke quickly, "Are you willing to be bait with your brother? As long as you sneak into the criminals' base, you can rescue Wang Jianshu and the others!"

Zhan Mu didn't feel scared at all. On the contrary, he was very excited.

He quickly said, "I do!"

After just a moment, he frowned again: "Xiao Shu was kidnapped in the backyard of Weiyuan Marquis's mansion. Their home is poorly guarded, but we have many secret guards in Zhanyi Marquis's mansion. Those villains shouldn't be able to get in, right?"

Lin Yiwan had also considered this issue. She whispered, "Let's rent a house temporarily to confuse them. I'll give you and Xuan the antidote. You two continue to pretend to be unconscious and remember where the carriage is going. Once you reach your destination, find a way to send a signal to me and your grandfather!"

Zhan Mu asked curiously: "How do you send a signal?"

Lin Yiwan was prepared. She pulled out a small black ball from her sleeve and said, "If you smash this thing hard on the ground, it will rise into the air and explode into a giant firework. Your uncle and I will be able to see it!"

Zhan Mu held it in his hand reluctantly, he actually wanted another one.

He was afraid that Zhan Xuan would snatch it from him!

Lin Yiwan saw through his thoughts and explained, "Because the situation is urgent, I only made this one. When you return safely, I'll make you a few more so you can play with them!"

Zhan Mu quickly agreed: "Okay, mother, you must keep your word!"

After the mother and son had discussed it, they went their separate ways to rest.

The next day, Zhan Xuan rubbed his confused eyes and got up. He turned to look at Lin Yiwan, then looked at Zhan Mu who was sitting next to him, and couldn't help but ask cautiously: "Brother, aren't we going to school today?"

Zhan Mu glanced at him and said, "You've already angered the teacher, how can you go to school again?"

Zhan Xuan was startled and quickly stretched out his chubby little hand to cover Zhan Mu's little mouth.

Zhan Mu reached out and pushed him away: "Have you washed your hands?"

Zhan Xuan scratched his head. "Brother, are we good brothers anymore? How could you tell me off in front of our mother? How did I anger the teacher? I didn't lie. Didn't the big black dog spit out my homework?"

Zhan Mu nodded: "I vomited it out, but it scared the gentleman!"

Zhan Xuan frowned: "Who made him so timid?"

After a pause, he looked at Lin Yiwan with curiosity: "Mom, where are we going?"

Lin Yiwan replied, "Go to the Imperial Temple and pray for your father. I hope he can complete the handover mission in Suzhou City as soon as possible and return home safely!"

When he heard that they were going to pray for Zhan Yan, Zhan Xuan's expression became a little serious.
