The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

There is a curfew in the capital city at night.

Holding the token of the Grand Princess Jinghe's residence, Luo Jingqian and his group traveled freely.

Just as they were about to reach the street where the Grand Princess's residence was located, they were stopped in mid-air.

"It's the Carefree Prince!"

Luo Jingqian was very familiar with this voice.

The way the carefree prince made his appearance on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month left a deep impression on people.

However, judging from that day, this maternal uncle's character was extraordinary, and he also cared about Yan Shi.

Dressed in red, she suddenly descended from the sky.

This outfit astonished the Prince of Changping and his wife.

"This is... the Carefree King?"

Despite being marginalized, Prince Changping, as the legitimate son of Princess Jinghe, still has a good understanding of certain matters.

Prince Xiaoyao was about the same age as Emperor Chuyuan. He came from a noble family with a distinguished and prestigious lineage, which had produced a prime minister and an empress, and had enjoyed a long and prosperous life.

The mysterious disappearance of that year is now coinciding with a similarly sensitive reappearance.

Both disappearance and reappearance occur during periods of change in royal power.

Prince Changping found it difficult to regard the two as peers.

The carefree prince before me, dressed in red, was even more dazzling than the top scholar who rode his horse through the streets.

Judging from his appearance, he is about the same age as Luo Jingqian.

"Is he going to be a groom?" The princess looked at the clothes and found them somewhat familiar. They were the uniforms unique to members of the royal family, but they were from decades ago.

"..."

The person in front of me was actually nearly fifty years old, but dressed in red, he looked like a young man in his prime.

Seeing someone who looked even younger than himself, Prince Changping simply couldn't bring himself to call him "uncle."

"Where have you hidden my daughter?" The carefree king's voice sounded drunk. "Hurry up and bring her out. My good days with her mother cannot be without her."

Luo Jingqian produced a guqin in his hand and was about to go out when he heard a voice transmission in his ear, "Don't make any rash moves!"

Han Cuiyin's voice was clear and urgent, "Ask him how he knows I was taken away by the Grand Princess's residence?"

The guqin disappeared again, as if it had never existed.

Prince Changping looked at Luo Jingqian's storage bag with envy.

Compared to this magical artifact, the weapon he carried was just ordinary iron.

The princess consort, already used to such occurrences, whispered a warning, "Be careful!"

Luo Jingqian didn't sense any murderous intent. He jumped off the carriage and asked, "Uncle, is today your wedding day? Is the bride Miss Cuiyin's mother, Yan Shunhua?"

"Of course! I would never marry anyone but Shunhua. Where have you hidden Cuiyin?"

The drunkenness on the Prince of Leisure's face was obvious. He looked towards the top of the wall and chuckled.

In the light screen, Han Cuiyin saw Yan Shunhua dressed in red and believed that the two were getting married today.

"Young Master Luo, I gave the Qiankun Jade Pot that I sent you to them as a wedding gift. I will give it back to you when you return."

"Also, don't tell them where I am. Just tell them to take care of themselves and not get involved in worldly matters."

Han Cuiyin's voice grew softer and softer, as if she were about to sob.

Luo Jingqian still remembered what Yan Shunhua looked like in the Time Reincarnation Array; she wasn't as charming as she is now.

The thirty-year-old woman sitting on the wall looked like a young woman at first glance.

His aged face was completely different from the one he had seen in the formation before.

Luo Jingqian withdrew his gaze, relayed Han Cuiyin's words, and presented the Qiankun Jade Pot to the Carefree King.

"This jade pot is a wedding gift that Miss Yang asked me to pass on, and these seeds are a gift for my great-uncle."

"Miss Yang is safe now. She will be able to come out in a year. You can come and look for her then."

"These days, my great-uncle needs to take good care of my great-aunt and the baby in her womb..."

Luo Jingqian gave a long list of instructions, all of which were things Han Cuiyin had told him to do.

Having obtained those items, the Carefree King was now fully awake.

"Has this child suffered some injustice at the Han family?"

When the couple came to visit, the Han family members were stammering.

Looking back now, there must have been some hidden story behind it.

"Feilan, Cuiyin must have suffered some injustice at the Han family's hands."

"On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, she was a young girl who was being harassed but didn't beg us to take her away. This time, she went to the Grand Princess's residence and never came back. I don't believe that nothing happened!"

Yan Shunhua's face showed signs of anxiety.

The carefree prince leaped into the air, "Don't panic! The Han family is bullying her, I'll go and deal with them."

"Uncle, wait! There's a strange person around the eldest daughter of the Han family. Miss Yang and I were injured by him. Be careful not to let the black aura touch you."

The carefree prince nodded, put his arm around Yan Shunhua, chose the direction of the Han residence, and disappeared into the street.

After shooing the people away, he received another telepathic message. Luo Jingqian could only beg Prince Changping, "Uncle, please go to the Han residence to help as well, and don't let Aunt get hurt."

The Prince of Changping also knew that he could not take action within a month. "First, send your aunt back safely, and then I will take you there."

The Princess Consort was an ordinary person, and Prince Changping was not at ease with her.

Things haven't been peaceful in the capital these days.

Princess Shengmian seemed to have vanished from the spot, leaving no trace.

The entire capital was searched three times, leaving no place unsearched.

There was absolutely no trace of Princess Shengmian.

The second prince, having given up all hope, went mad every day in the palace.

Emperor Chuyuan could only put pressure on his ministers to intensify the search efforts.

Even today, the people in the palace have had to accept the news that Princess Shengmian perished in the fire.

The other princesses, who hadn't cared at first, were now begging their mothers to use their influence to persuade them not to go for the marriage alliance.

Before Prince Changping could tell Luo Jingqian about these things, he encountered the matter of Prince Xiaoyao.

"This day has been packed with things to do, so you all go ahead. I'll handle the matter with the Luo family later."

This was the first time the Prince of Changping had been so busy.

In the past, he had a leisurely job, and all he needed to do was hone his skills.

Everything is happening at the same time right now, which is a bit of a constraint.

"Uncle, you should stay out of these things for now. I'll handle it after a month."

"Just keep a close eye on your great-uncle's affairs and send me updates promptly."

Luo Jingqian carefully gave a couple of instructions.

"Oh my, so you're really infatuated with that Miss Yang? You think about everything for her, and you haven't even sorted out your own family matters yet!"

Before the Prince of Changping could continue speaking, his wife interrupted him, saying, "Alright, what kind of uncle are you, making fun of your nephew?"

"You don't need to worry about these things. It's just that there are some things that our family can't get involved in. If something really happens to Prince Xiaoyao, as long as he seeks help from the Grand Princess's residence, he can't do anything openly, but your uncle will help him secretly."

Before Luo Jingqian could even feel embarrassed by the teasing, he was taken aback by his aunt's stance. "The Carefree Prince, what's different about your status?"

"Let's not talk about this now; ask your maternal grandmother later."

Prince Changping interrupted the conversation.

They happened to arrive at the Grand Princess's residence.

Han Cuiyin heard every word of the conversation.

No wonder I'd never heard of the carefree king in my past life; it turns out, he was disliked by the emperor.

She lowered her head in deep thought, flipping through memories from thousands of years ago, and indeed there was no Prince Xiaoyao.

Looking up again, the screen displayed a view of the Han residence.
