Chapter 136.  I've Found Your Flesh And Blood

"Alright," he said.

Su Qing nodded in agreement with Ji Shuisheng's statement. Old Qin looked at Ji Shuisheng; his amber eyes glowed with determination in the firelight, just like General Xiao.

The old man was confused. Xiaoying looked like Ling'er, Ji Shuisheng's eyes were the same as Xiao Heng's, and their temperament and actions were very similar. The only difference was that their ages did not match.

"Little Rou?"

Old master Qin suddenly shouted. Ji Shuisheng's body trembled. He did not raise his head, but the hand holding the map trembled slightly.

"Ling'er, I've found your child."

As he shouted towards the sky, the old man's tears fell like rain. He had been searching for 16 years, a whole 16 years! He finally found the children. After 16 years of torture, his thoughts turned into tears. The old master cried and laughed as he hugged Ji Shuisheng, not letting go.

"Grandpa."

Ji Shuisheng knelt on the ground with both knees. He did not want to acknowledge him before.

From the day he met the old man, he had been carefully observing. He wondered why his grandfather did not save them when his parents died.

Jin City. He was upright, unafraid of death, and had a heart for the people. Such a person would not leave his parents in the lurch.

He didn't trust old Qin but had seen his grandfather's character in Jin City. He was upright, unafraid of death, and had a heart for the people. Such a person would not leave his parents in the lurch.

However, he didn't want to acknowledge old Qin as his grandfather at that time. He still had a grudge until he saw his grandfather being humiliated in the prison carriage. At that moment, his heart was filled with jealousy.

Li Wu brought the black wooden box and the eight words, allowing Ji Shuisheng to let go of his grudge completely. He felt that his grandfather must have endured the humiliation for him and Xiaoying to protect the things his parents left behind.

Although Ji Shuisheng wasn't sure if the old man recognized him then, his words calmed him down, and he didn't act rashly.

Strictly speaking, when he said that he would help Su Qing save old Qin, Su Qing had helped him save his grandfather.

Today, if it weren't for Su Qing, he wouldn't have been able to save his grandfather. He couldn't bear to see his grandfather being humiliated by that General and having his bowl of porridge shattered, which would alert the armored Army.

If not for Su Qing's drug, the armored soldiers would have killed his grandfather to prevent the prisoner from being rescued.

Su Qing looked at the tear-jerking scene of them reuniting and could not understand. Why are you crying? Wasn't it a good thing that they were reunited?

Su Qing suddenly remembered that he had to introduce old Qin to the people of Peach Blossom Cove as her father when he returned. Ji Shuisheng had called old Qin 'grandfather,' so wouldn't that mean she was a generation older than him?

Su Qing was still not used to the sudden rise of a generation.

She couldn't help but look at Ji Shuisheng. He had an unkempt beard and looked older than her. Why was it so awkward to be his aunt?

Ji Shuisheng was very excited after he reunited with his grandfather. He was also cautious when he carried the old man on his back for fear of touching his wounds.

As they feared alerting the Wan family Army, they hid their carriage a mile away.

After getting into the car, Su Qing was busy dyeing old Qin's hair. His white hair was too eye-catching, and he looked no different from an ordinary person after being dyed black.

"Lady Su, thank you for saving this old man today."

Old Qin looked at Su Qing with mixed feelings. He had only wanted to cure his old illness, but he had found Ling'er's child. He was very grateful to Su Qing. This girl was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Although she had a strange temper, she would be a good helper for Ling'er.

"I just don't want to break my promise."

Su Qing's hand, which was dying old Qin's hair, paused momentarily before returning to her cold and emotionless voice.

"Haha, a man of his word is a man of his word. Lady Su's vision is very big. I wonder who Lady Su's master is from. To be able to raise a young lady to such an outstanding level, he is not an ordinary person."

Elder Qin asked Su Qing. He was most afraid that her family and the Xiao family were enemies. If that were the case, she would not be able to help Luan'er but would become his enemy.

It was too rash of him to meet Luang'er this time!

"I'm an orphan. I don't have parents,"

Su Qing was referring to her true identity. As for the original owner of the body, although she was not an orphan, there was no difference between being abducted and being an orphan.

"Who did that young lady learn all her skills from?"

Old Qin did not expect Su Qing to be an orphan, and he asked with a hint of pity in his eyes.

"I don't want to say."

Su Qing's voice turned even colder. She didn't want to bring up her dark past.

"Alright," he said.

Old Qin nodded. Everyone had a past they didn't want others to know about, so he didn't ask anymore.

They were chasing after the troops from Peach Blossom Cove at top speed. They had left to chase after the escort troops for over a day. It would take them another day to return. During this period, the troops from Peach Blossom Cove would have to travel another day's distance, so it would take at least three days to catch up with them.

Ji Shuisheng wanted to shorten the three days to two days. He would only be safe if he quickly blended into the Peach Blossom Cove team.

Being lost in the crowd was the most difficult to find. Otherwise, the three of them would be the target of the Wan clan Army's rigorous investigation.

Ji Shuisheng and the others chased after the team while Wan Yulin also escorted the fourth brother's body to the capital. Every day, pigeons would fly to understand the situation of the escort of old Qin.

Qin Feng was his big chess piece, and he could not afford to lose him.

Tonight, he had laid down at the post house and looked at the intelligence reports his subordinates sent.

Wan Yulin's brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was as dark as black iron. His sharp eagle eyes flashed with killing intent.

His Majesty has sent people to guard the place strictly. The capital's troops were frequently mobilized, and the Imperial Majesty seemed to be taking action. The Imperial consort tried her best, but she could not harm the baby in noble An's womb. In her anxiety, she went to Fuxi Pavilion. As a result, the Imperial Majesty, who was plotted against by noble An, and Imperial consort Wan bore grudges against her. The Imperial consort was grounded and not allowed to leave Jiaofang Palace.

Lu Yue read the secret letter from Prime Minister Wan from the capital. Wan Yulin sneered,

"In the past, Yongqi used to spoil our Wan family to get Imperial power. He loved my little sister in every way possible and only pampered her. Now that he has the Imperial throne, he feels the Wan family is an eyesore.

"The General should have taken precautions. The Emperor must be fearless to dare to treat the Imperial concubine like this."

Lu Yue reminded Wan Yulin that proud soldiers were bound to be defeated. General Wan was too proud and did not put anyone in his eyes. He has the Emperor, and even if he had hidden his sharp claws, he was still a Tiger, not a cat.

He was so arrogant and made significant contributions that the Emperor wanted to eliminate him.

"I understand."

Wan Yulin nodded. Lu Yue's analysis was exactly what he was thinking. The Emperor was a smiling Tiger. On the surface, he is weak and cannot listen to the Wan family, but he must secretly plan how to get rid of the Wan family.

Wan Yulin suppressed the anger in his heart. Now was not the time to fall out with Yongqi, so he asked Lu Yue,

"What about Qin Feng?"

Lu Yue replied,

"I received a Messenger pigeon this evening saying we will arrive at Jin province tomorrow. They will set up camp in the wilderness tonight,"

Wan Yulin raised his eyebrows and asked,

"Where's the letter of ten thousand people?"

Lu Yue waved his paper fan and laughed.

"I've already collected the signatures of a thousand people, requesting the Imperial court to punish Qin Feng severely."

"It's not enough."

Wan Yulin coldly ordered,

"I'm not happy about this. I'll let them humiliate Qin Feng as much as they want, but I'll spare his dog's life."

"Yes."

Wan Yulin asked again,

"Did you get back the silver?"
