"I have to go back to accompany Xiao Tianbao. She will be scared without me."

Jing Chunxi gently patted the pastry crumbs on his hands, raised his head, and his expression became serious and earnest.

She was really worried about Xiao Tianbao. After all, the two of them were in the same boat and were both locked up under the same roof. They had already established a special bond with each other.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then slowly said, "Brother Xiaokang, do you have any way to pull that bastard prince down? He's really bullying us. You don't know, we saw the miserable plight of the people in Minqing County. Those people quickly..."

"I know!"

Jing Chunxi's unfinished grumble was easily interrupted by Xiaokang's words. She looked up at him angrily, feeling a little dissatisfied. Really, she hadn't even mentioned the mass grave on the mountain yet, and he had no patience at all?

Seeing the indignation on the girl's face, her face flushed with anger, and her cashew eyes widened into dragon eyes, Xiaokang sighed slightly, reached out and pushed her standing body back onto the stool, and said softly: "Brother is thinking of a solution."

"Your scumbag father, Prince Yan, really doesn't care about anything?" Jing Chunxi muttered, with a hint of complaint and resentment in his tone. He completely regarded Prince Yan as his scumbag father and felt sorry for Xiaokang.

Xiaokang looked at her in astonishment when he heard this. He had never expected that Jing Chunxi knew his identity before he confessed to her. His eyes gradually turned into embarrassment.

Jing Chunxi didn't have time to look at the expression on his face. She was still desperately reaching into her arms.

At first, Xiaokang just frowned and looked at her in confusion. But as she groped for longer and longer, he turned his face slightly away. He really didn't understand what she was doing, but he was embarrassed to keep staring at the girl's chest.

After a while, Jing Chunxi finally pulled out a stack of things from her bosom. She carefully unfolded them, revealing a dozen thin booklets. She said in a serious tone, "These dozen or so books are signed by the people of Jiujiang County."

Xiaokang's eyes fell on the booklets, a hint of solemnity flashing in them. Without pausing, Jing Chunxi pulled out another stack of things from her bosom, this time some letters. She handed them to Xiaokang and explained, "These were taken from the Jiujiang County Magistrate's Mansion. They're all correspondence between the bastard Prince, Grand Tutor Peng, and that bastard County Magistrate." Her voice was filled with indignation, knowing that these letters were incriminating evidence.

Then, she took out a large seal from her bosom and asked with a hint of anticipation, "Do you think this seal will be useful?"

Xiaokang looked at her small body and couldn't believe how she could hide so many things on her body. She took out the letters several times, until the big seal fell, and the pair of white and tender little hands finally stopped.

Xiaokang found Jing Chunxi's belly strange no matter how he looked at it. If these two large stacks of letters and this large seal were stuffed back into her belly, wouldn't she be like a bulging Buddha? He couldn't help but imagine how she had just taken these things out, and no matter how he thought about it, it seemed incredible.

Jing Chunxi's face flushed slightly as Xiaokang kept staring at her flat chest and stomach. She glared back at him angrily and said, "What are you looking at? There's nothing good about it!"

She cleared her throat, her tone firm: "I asked my grandfather, many of the officials he had good relations with in the court have fallen on hard times, and there are only a few left who can be used in the court, and it is not convenient for them to take action. You and your scum..." She paused, finally realizing her disrespect.

But he still continued, "Anyway, you have to find a way."

The girl's face flushed with anger, but she remained stubborn, not feeling that her father's words were excessive. She pouted her red lips, her eyes brimming with reluctance, having already determined that he could accomplish this.

The little girl's blurt-out words not only did not make Xiaokang angry, but instead the trust she expressed made him feel very good.

But now, still entangled in her first words, he asked in a very gentle voice: "Who told you my true identity?" There was a hint of inquiry in his eyes as he silently waited for her answer.

"Second aunt and her family have been found, and your two cousins ​​even came with us just to see you." Jing Chunxi's words completely stunned Xiaokang. A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by disbelief.

He grabbed Jing Chunxi's hands and pulled them over. He asked anxiously, "Found him? Cousin?" He was almost confused, as if he didn't understand who his cousin belonged to.

Seeing his excitement, Jing Chunxi was a little worried that he couldn't understand it, so she quickly said the key point, which was also what Xiaokang cared about the most: "There are still two bloodlines left in the Tao family, your uncle's two sons, Tao Chengrui and Tao Chengzhi, they have already followed." There was a hint of relief in her voice, and she told Xiaokang clearly that it was not too late and there was still hope for the Tao family.

Xiaokang's hands were shaking all the time, and Jing Chunxi's hand was pulled so hard that it hurt. He had no choice but to walk around the table and shake his hand back with his own hands to make him sure of the truth of the matter.

She whispered, "It's true. They survived safely because they found my second aunt." A tear flashed in Xiaokang's eyes. He held Jing Chunxi's hand tightly, his eyes full of gratitude for her.

Jing Chunxi continued, "Aunt Wei brought her two children, as well as the two young masters of the Tao family, and has come to the mansion to pay homage to her deceased family members and ancestors. She has also stayed at the Tao mansion for a few days." This sentence was also to comfort Xiaokang, letting him know that this matter had comforted his deceased relatives, and perhaps Xiaokang's mother, Aunt Lan, had also received it in the afterlife.

"Thank you! Thank you, Xi'er." Xiaokang's voice trembled, his eyes filled with emotion and gratitude, his voice breaking. Jing Chunxi had never seen such an excited and choked expression, but she understood. What those who lost loved ones needed most was news and comfort from their loved ones.

Seeing him suddenly stand up, with moist eyes, and put his arms around her, Jing Chunxi didn't care about anything else. She just knew that he needed a hug now, so she gave him a big hug in return.

He was very tall, and she rested her cheek against his shoulder, feeling his slightly trembling body. Xiaokang choked with sobs and whispered in her ear, "Mother, you should rest assured. The Tao family has an heir." A few tears fell, and Jing Chunxi felt the warmth on her neck.

After a long while, Xiaokang finally let Jing Chunxi go. The two sat down again, and this time Jing Chunxi poured himself two cups of tea, one for each of them.

She gently pushed the teacup in front of Xiaokang and said softly, "Drink some tea and calm down."

Then he told Xiaokang many details about finding the descendants of the Tao family.
