Seeing this, Xu Hanfeng took the lead in opening his mouth and bowed, "His Royal Highness King An, I heard in my early years that you went to the Jin Kingdom alone to take over the business shop when you were a child. ”

Xu Hanfeng spoke very humbly, and Rong Yu'an saw that he didn't look like a deliberate flatterer, which was really rare, and he also returned the courtesy, "Xu Zhuangyuan is polite, I heard that you are the martial champion who won the first place in the spring this year, and you can't be compared, and besides, you are my sister's sweetheart, so don't be humble anymore." ”

Xu Hanfeng smiled and nodded, Rong Muling was happy to see the two getting along harmoniously on the side, and hurriedly beckoned the magpie in the house to serve tea and fruit plates to entertain the two.

Rong Yu'an and Xu Hanfeng talked a lot, the two fell in love, Rong Muling didn't see the wrong person, at least so far Xu Hanfeng's impression on Rong Yu'an was excellent.

The two chatted and chatted about the strange things that happened in the capital recently, Xu Hanfeng turned his head and sat down to look at Rong Yu'an, "His Royal Highness King An, I don't know if you have heard about the strange things that have happened in the capital recently?" ”

Rong Yu'an raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, his eyes looked at him and asked suspiciously, "This king only returned to Dongwen Kingdom today, but the affairs of the capital are rarely heard of, I don't know what Xu Zhuangyuan is talking about?" ”

At the mention of this matter, Xu Hanfeng's brows couldn't help frowning, "It's also strange to say, I also heard that I heard from my colleagues drinking together, I heard that there have been several strange things in the capital recently, one after another to three years old children and children disappeared, and the perpetrators are skillful, so far the case has not been solved." ”

Rong Yu'an frowned when he heard this, hearing him talk about this case, he couldn't help but think of his brother's easy disappearance five years ago, and the queen mother was saddened for many years because of this, this case is really suspicious.

Rong Yu thought about it and decided to tell his father, and after talking to Xu Hanfeng, he left in a hurry.

Xu Hanfeng looked at Rong Muling with some confusion, "Did I say something wrong?" How do you feel that the expression on His Royal Highness King An's face just now is not quite right? ”

Rong Muling, as his younger sister, didn't know what he was thinking, she also thought of the ease of disappearance five years ago when she mentioned the child's disappearance just now, Rong Muling frowned and sighed, and turned to look up at Xu Hanfeng, "It has nothing to do with you, it's something else......"

On the other side, Rong Yu'an, who left in a hurry, immediately returned to the palace to meet his father, and in the imperial study, he heard that Rong Yu'an came to meet him, and Zhao Yunling did not avoid it, and accompanied Rong Yan together.

"His Royal Highness King An is here to ......," the little servant on the side shouted, and then Rong Yu'an walked in.

At first, when he saw that Zhao Yunling was also there, his steps paused slightly, his lips were pursed, and he looked at the two of them with complicated eyes, and finally walked in.

"The son asks his father and the queen mother to say goodbye." Rong Yu'an bowed, and then looked up at the two people on the seat.

"No etiquette, there will be no need for these etiquettes if there are no outsiders in the future, An'er, what is the matter with entering the palace? Is there something going on with your sister's husband? Rong Yan smiled faintly.

Rong Yu'an looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, which made Zhao Yunling suspicious, "An'er, do you have anything to say?" ”

Rong Yu'an pondered for a moment and finally spoke, "Father, in fact, the son has something to tell you. ”

Rong Yan restored the majesty of the emperor, but he didn't expect Rong Yu'an, who had just come back, to come into contact with the things in the city, "Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"Erchen also just learned from Xu Zhuangyuan, I heard that there have been frequent strange cases of children between the ages of one and three in the capital recently, which is really business-friendly, and the other party's modus operandi is skillful, and it is very likely that he is habitual." When Rong Yu'an said this, his eyes secretly skimmed to Zhao Yunling, and sure enough, the expression on Zhao Yunling's face moved slightly, and his smile gradually stiffened.

Hearing this, Rong Yan also subconsciously looked at Zhao Yunling beside him, and comforted her with both hands on her shoulders, "Do you remember the things that were easy to disappear five years ago?" ”

"It's easy for this kid to have a hard life, but I'm sorry for him and couldn't take him home." Zhao Yunling's face was sad, and the guilt in his heart had always existed.

Rong Yu'an also felt uncomfortable when he saw Zhao Yunling like this, "Queen Mother, don't be too sad, after all, it's been so long, don't hurt your body, I believe my brother is doing well in another place." ”

Zhao Yunling also knew that the two of them were worried about her, she secretly touched the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes, and turned her head to look at Rong Yan, "Your Majesty, the concubine is a little uncomfortable, so I will go back first." ”

It is also a good thing for Rong Yan to let her avoid it, so that she can calm down when she is alone, he nodded, turned his head to look up at Cuizhu beside Zhao Yunling, and ordered, "Cuizhu, you are so good to take care of your young lady, the flowers in the imperial garden have bloomed recently, and you have nothing to take her for a walk." ”

Cuizhu nodded understandingly, she was also worried about Zhao Yunling's mental state, and hurriedly agreed, "Yes, Your Majesty, Miss, let's go." ”

After that, the two left the imperial study, and at this time, only Rong Yan and Rong Yu'an were left.

Rong Yan frowned slightly, let's not talk about what happened five years ago, even now, it is indeed very suspicious that there is such a big mistake at the prince's feet, and it is necessary to check it carefully.

"Yun'er, this case is full of suspicions, are you willing to investigate?" Rong Yan asked tentatively, which could be regarded as respecting Rong Yu'an's own thoughts.

Rong Yu'an himself wanted to investigate this matter thoroughly, and with Rong Yan's words, he had even more confidence in his heart, he hurriedly bowed, "Erchen is willing to thoroughly investigate this matter for his father." ”

Rong Yan nodded with satisfaction, it is really rare to have such a responsibility at a young age, and it will become a great weapon in the future, Rong Yan nodded with satisfaction, but he thought about it, although he believed in Rong Yu'an's ability very much, but after all, he did not have any power in Dongwen Kingdom, and he was afraid that he would not be able to convince the public because of his age.

Rong Yan's eyes skimmed to Yueqing beside him, and he suddenly had an idea, and said, "Yun'er, I'm afraid you don't know much about the current situation when you came back this time, how about I send Yueqing to follow you to investigate?" ”

has an extra helper, and he is still a cronie of his father's side, which can be regarded as an extra guarantee, and he is extremely happy.

At the same time, Yueqing also stood up and replied decisively, "Yueqing will definitely take care of His Royal Highness King An." ”

Immediately the two left the palace together, in order to make the investigation more convenient, the two changed into civilian clothes after some discussion, and they were not so high-profile, so as not to startle the snake.

With Rong Yan's will, all the yamen provided the victim's confession and favorable evidence, Rong Yu'an took a cursory look at it, and felt that it was more appropriate to visit the scene, and Yueqing followed Rong Yu'an to visit the victim's home.

The family in front of them is a simple farmer, the family has a few acres of land, hard work every day, are some simple and honest people, and have not offended anyone, but they have been tragically blackhanded, they have been looking forward to half a lifetime of children who have just been born for a few years but have been taken away, and the family washes their faces with tears almost every day.

"Lord Qingtian, you have to be the master of the grass people, my hard-working child is only one and a half years old, and he was kidnapped by bad people before he learned to walk and speak, you must get the child back for us......" Knowing that Cuizhu and Rong Yu'an were adults investigating the disappearance, the farmer couple couldn't hold back, so they knelt down when they went up, and kowtowed several times, in order to find their child.

Even though Rong Yu'an had seen a lot of strong winds and waves, he was a little helpless when he saw such a sad scene, so he hurriedly got up and helped the couple who fell to the ground.

"The two of you don't have to be like this, finding the murderer is what our yamen should do, and I came here this time to investigate the evidence, and I hope you will cooperate a lot in order to bring the bad guys to justice." Rong Yu'an said in an orderly manner, his tone of voice was not at all as calm as he should have at his age, and Yueqing on his side was really shocked by Rong Yu'an's unhurried attitude.

The couple did stabilize a lot of emotions with Rong Yu'an's comfort, and under Rong Yu'an's inquiry, the two got a clue that was missing from the yamen, their lost child was born in April.

At first, Rong Yu'an just wrote it down in his heart, but when he visited many families of lost children in a row, he felt that this point in time was very suspicious.

Yue Qing noticed that Rong Yu'an's expression was wrong, and asked out loud, "His Royal Highness King An, do you have any clues?" ”

"Yueqing, do you think that these families we visited have a common characteristic?" Rong Yu'an said with a deep look in his eyes, although it was a question, he already had the answer in his heart.

After his reminder, Yueqing tried to recall the few families he had visited just now, and suddenly realized the crux of the problem, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly looked at Rong Yu'an, "Your Highness means that their lost children were all born between March and July!" ”

"That's right, this is too much of a coincidence, if the other party is really a veteran and repeat offender, he will definitely not leave a fatal clue, then the only way to start is from the common denominator of these lost children, maybe they are purposefully abducting these children." Rong Yu'an calmly analyzed the situation just now, combined with some evidence given by the yamen, such an analysis does make some sense.

Yue Qing felt that Rong Yu'an's analysis was very reasonable, and then asked, "Then did His Highness go back to the palace to tell the emperor?" ”

Rong Yu'an put his hands behind his back, "Don't worry, there are still a few families in the future, and we need to further prove that our inference is correct." ”

Yueqing couldn't help but admire Rong Yu'an's figure when she looked at it, she didn't expect that Rong Yu'an had changed so much in the years since she left, this temperament was the same as Rong Yan back then, even if the result had been deduced, it would have to wait for further verification, it was really rare to be so delicate at such a young age.

Later, the two visited the portal of the lost children again, and sure enough, as Rong Yu'an guessed, these lost children were born between March and July.
