Don't worry about traveling through time, she has an all-powerful senior sister to help her

"Godfather..." This time Wang Yuan hesitated and did not move.

The old eunuch replaced the teacup and, after his godson slowly lowered his head, he said, "Just now I heard Heng Ge'er mention that the young lady from the Shen family knew Xiao Douzi."

"People are similar." Wang Yuan said in a low voice.

The old eunuch's voice deepened twice: "Raise your head."

Wang Yuan knew he couldn't disobey, so he looked up and said, "It's Godfather."

"I have already arranged it. You will serve in the Grand Prince's palace in three days." The old eunuch saw his unexpected expression and sighed.

"Duke Zhong has already had his property confiscated and been imprisoned. Who do you think will be next?"

"Da Diao Yan." Wang Yuan said these three words silently. He was the most popular eunuch in the palace, the one who had joined forces with Duke Zhongguo and the former Prime Minister to help His Majesty ascend the throne.

The previous Prime Minister had been ganged up on by the previous two and was driven out of the court by His Majesty.

As for Duke Zhongguo, the current Prime Minister is trying every possible means to remove His Majesty's trust.

As the saying goes, "Serving the king is like serving a tiger." These people come and go one after another, but none of them can compare to the old man who grew up with the tiger and is still honored and favored.

All of them will be targets that the tiger will both use and guard against.

But the eldest prince is still young. If Your Majesty doesn't want to repeat the previous emperor's childless fate, then the appointment of the crown prince is imminent. I just need to stay by his side forever...

Thinking of this, Wang Yuan knelt down hurriedly: "Thank you, godfather, for your support, son."

The old eunuch said, "I am already in the vortex. The greater my power, the less free I can be as I was before.

Why do you think I insisted on asking my sister's brother Heng to come to Beijing at this time?

And you, your clan has no single members, how can the higher-ups trust you?"

"I understand, son. Go prepare a thank-you gift right away. By the way, ask that little girl to help me meet the Cao family who are looking for Xiaodouzi in Beijing." Xiaodouzi almost died in the palace after his purification. He saved the child out of a kind heart.

Later, I visited him often, gradually developed feelings for him, and after adopting him, how could I not seek the help of my godfather to find out the child's origins?

Wang Yuan knew that someone had asked the eunuchs who had left the palace to inquire about Xiaodouzi, but he just didn't want the child to see them.

"When the time comes, please ask godfather to find a job for Xiaodouzi's biological father at Jintai Post Station." He knelt forward again and gave the old eunuch another cup of hot tea.

Unexpectedly, the old eunuch shook his head and said, "It can't be me, you have to come forward yourself.

It doesn't have to be in the near future, just hang out with them and let Xiaodouzi see his family more often, and then you can make plans in a couple of years."

"My son will take my advice and do it right away." As Wang Yuan stood up to leave, he heard the old eunuch say, "Tongzhi Shen is not bad. He is dedicated to doing practical things.

Even after his recovery, his family members still visited the house to thank the people who had helped him, which shows their sincerity."

"My son will treat you with courtesy." Wang Yuan took it to heart.

Not long after, he appeared in Ma Xian Alley.

Huang Zongqi, who happened to be returning from his car, happened to be parked outside the house. He bowed and asked, "Who are you?"

"It's you." Shen Lingzhu lifted the car curtain and saw the person who had just disliked her today in the dusk, followed by two followers holding gift boxes.

Her whole body immediately became alert, not knowing what he meant.

Wang Yuan smiled gently at her and said, "We are here to express our gratitude on the orders of our godfather.

I wonder if Miss Shen would like to have a cup of tea."

Shen Lingzhu's IQ quickly came online: "What are you talking about? You are the distinguished guest we can't invite even if we want to."

Although Huang Zongqi beside her was puzzled, Xiao Zhuzi's unusual politeness also made him cautious. This person was probably not easy to offend.

So he hurriedly shouted to open the door, invited the other party into the yard first, and handed the mule cart to the escort who opened the door.

Shen Chi, wearing a water skirt and holding a spatula, ran out of the kitchen: "Daughter, Dad made your favorite spare ribs."

As he finished speaking, he also saw Wang Yuan smiling at him. He was immediately startled. "Dear guest, please come up and have a seat. I will make a pot of hot tea and bring it over right away."

Having said that, he pulled Shen Lingzhu back to the kitchen quickly, and Huang Zongqi had no choice but to invite someone into the main room.

Fortunately, there was hot water in the kitchen, and the tea was bought today. Shen Chi didn't care whether it was top quality or not, and quickly brewed a pot of tea, "It's curfew soon, why is he here?

Alas, I should have asked about Xie Xiaoge's relatives before. "

"It's not easy to ask since you are not familiar with it." Shen Lingzhu helped cover the dishes cooked by his father and prepared to fight.

The father and daughter glanced at the two attendants at the door of the upper room and carried the tea set into the upper room.

Wang Yuan didn't talk much with Huang Zongqi in the short time he had spent. When he saw them come in, he stood up and said, "Excuse me for bothering you. This time, I came here not only to thank you on behalf of my godfather for safely delivering my cousin Xie Heng, but also because of Xiao Douzi's matter."

"Please sit down and have some tea." Shen Chi couldn't figure out his real purpose and could only respond politely.

Wang Yuan didn't beat around the bush with them. After sitting down, he said directly to Shen Lingzhu: "My family's surname is Wang after our godfather, and Xiaodouzi's surname is Wang after me.

When I first met him, he was having a high fever. Later, I often looked after him and liked his innocence. After keeping him by my side for more than a year, I even asked about his background.

I just learned from others that his family sold him into the palace."

Seeing that the whole family was silent, and Shen Lingzhu was standing motionless beside her father, he had no choice but to continue, "Today, Miss Shen said that Xiao Douzi was bought away by human traffickers. I didn't believe it at first.

But this child didn't eat well this afternoon, and kept asking where my parents were and whether my sister had seen them today."

"What does the Internal Minister mean?" After hearing so much, Shen Chi couldn't remain silent.

Wang Yuan kept smiling: "I want to meet the Cao family of Dashuangdian that your daughter mentioned."

Huang Zongqi frowned. He knew about Cao's second nephew, but it was not appropriate to speak at this moment.

Shen Lingzhu raised his eyes to look at Wang Yuan: "Prime Minister Wang, perhaps I recognized the wrong person."

"Then we have to meet him first and confirm it first.

"Miss Shen, you may not know this, but every time Little Douzi called out for his parents in his sleep, our family was deeply distressed." Wang Yuan said this with genuine emotion.

Shen Lingzhu was skeptical. She looked at her uncle and father.

Shen Chi felt that he couldn't keep putting it off, so he said, "The Cao family is in Baozhou, how about we write a letter?"

"Okay, I still have to take Xiaodouzi back to the palace to serve. If the Cao family has a reply, please go to Maoer Hutong to deliver the message." After Wang Yuan finished speaking, he was about to say goodbye and leave.

Shen Chi and Huang Zongqi saw him off, and did not say anything about not accepting his thank-you gift. They just gave Shen Lingzhu a wink.

The latter went to the empty room in the west wing and took out pecans, persimmons and other mountain products as return gifts.

Wang Yuan saw her handing over two plain baskets, and he took them calmly and left.

On the way back, he tasted a piece of dried persimmon and said to himself, "This family is really good."

……

Coincidentally, Huang Zongqi also said while heating the dishes: "This person is not very honest, and I don't know why he is looking for the Cao family."

"Do you really need to write a letter?" Shen Lingzhu shared the same opinion.

Shen Chi sighed, "Write it down. It's not easy to have a private residence outside the palace.

You gave me the address this afternoon, but he chose to come here instead of looking for it himself, just to let us be the middleman."
