(Dear, this is a draft, the revised version will come out in about half an hour, sorry!)

Under the dim light, the second prince Xiao Diyuan had not yet slept, sitting at the desk by the window and reading a book intently.

Recently, he not only spends three or four hours during the day to discuss strategies with his teachers, but also spends more than an hour reading books at night in order to better consolidate the knowledge he has learned.

A few days ago, he sent a letter to his mysterious teacher, Jingwu, about his recent study arrangements, saying that he would not have time to meet him before the '95 Competition'. It wasn't long before he received a reply from Shizugo, expressing his understanding and giving him some advice on how to race.

At the moment, he looks like he's fully prepared for the race.

There was a soft knock on the door, and Ding Cong walked in lightly.

Here, only Ding Cong dared to come in without asking for instructions.

"Second Highness, this is a letter from Wei Bang. Ding Cong whispered, and then took out a small envelope from his pocket and put it in Xiao Diyuan's hand.

At present, Wei Bang was sent by Xiao Diyuan to join forces with Wu Yichang to collect clues related to Ding An's life experience.

Xiao Diyuan immediately opened the letter and read it.

In the letter, Wei Bang said that one of Ding An's neighbors said that he still remembered the day Ding An was picked up by his adoptive parents, and remembered the specific date, but needed to exchange the information for ten taels of silver.

This person is simply a lion's mouth, Xiao Diyuan sighed, but since the information is so important to him, he doesn't mind this bit of silver, so he said to Ding Cong while throwing the letter into the stove: "You go back to the Wei Gang, and let him take that person to the third box on the second floor of the Songzhuxuan Tavern at two o'clock tomorrow." ”

Ding Cong hurriedly asked, "Is His Royal Highness going to go in person?"

"Hmm. ”

Ding Cong felt that it was a bit risky for Xiao Diyuan to go out to see the man in person, so he said, "Then the second highness will have to wear that low-brimmed hat at that time." ”

"It's nature. ”

Ding Cong immediately rushed to reply to the Wei Gang.

At two o'clock the next day, Xiao Diyuan, who was wearing a low-brimmed hat and blue civilian clothes, appeared on time in the No. 3 box on the second floor of the Songzhuxuan tavern.

Wei Bang and the man arrived before them, and when they saw them enter, they immediately got up to greet them.

Xiao Diyuan's head was raised slightly, and his hand gently moved a touch of gauze in front of a small hole in the brim of his hat half an inch, and he saw the person clearly.

The man was about sixty years old, dressed and behaved like a veritable peasant, and a pair of eyes that were already somewhat cloudy looked at Xiao Diyuan's low-brimmed hat fixedly, as if he was a little curious about how someone would refuse to show his true face.

But he didn't care much about it, after all, for him, it was really good to get ten taels of silver by quietly revealing a little news, not to mention that he felt that even if the news was spoken, it would not necessarily cause harm to Ding An and his adoptive parents.

So, his mood is generally calm, but also vaguely uneasy.

Xiao Diyuan asked them to sit down, and then said to the farmer in his early sixties: "We asked you to find out about this situation because it is very likely to be related to a case more than ten years ago, so you don't need to panic." ”

Then he asked for the man's name.

The man replied, "The surname is Zhong, and the name is sixteen." He glanced at Xiao Diyuan with some anxiety and asked, "What is the case you said more than ten years ago?"

"So far, the public has not known about this case, and it will only be possible to make it public when the truth is revealed. Xiao Diyuan said.

Zhong Sixteen couldn't help but shudder, and asked in a trembling voice, "So, it's very important?"

"Well, it's important. ”

"Then what will you do to Ding An's family after I provide you with this information?"

"We're going to do everything we can to protect them. Xiao Diyuan said.

"Are you sure it won't hurt them?" Zhong Sixteen asked again, suddenly regretting that he had agreed to reveal the news.

"Of course. ”

Zhong Sixteen rubbed his hands together and fell silent, as if considering whether he really wanted to reveal Ding An's information.

Strange to say, he had thought about it before he came, and he was somehow hesitant at this time.

Xiao Diyuan did not force him to express his position immediately, but beckoned Ding Cong to come over and said, "Let the shopkeeper serve the food." ”

Ding Cong nodded and walked out quickly.

Soon, several shopkeepers served food one after another.

Zhong Sixteen saw that there were roast lamb shanks that he liked to eat but couldn't afford to eat on weekdays, Bazhen brine platter, braised prawns, stewed chicken with mushrooms, etc., as well as Hantan Xiang (wine name) that he occasionally drank even if he was poor, and suddenly couldn't help swallowing.

In addition to farming, Zhong Sixteen's most important thing in his life was to eat delicious food and drink fine wine, but he was a farmer and usually did not have much money on him, so he could not afford to eat many things he wanted to eat. But even so, he did not get rid of his habit of eating and drinking, and in order to have an occasional luxury, he often went to the rich family's house to do odd jobs after finishing his farm work, so that he could earn some money to eat a good meal in the tavern. However, in order to have a good meal, he usually had to work odd jobs for several months to have enough money to go to the tavern once.

Now that the table is full of good food and wine that he likes to eat, the gluttonous worms in his body can't help but be stupid/desired/moved/.
