i people must also bravely raise the villain cubs!

The figure shuttled through the dark night, dodged the guards, and found where my brother was.

The black shadow passed by the windows one after another, and finally stopped in front of a window. Just as he was about to push the door open and go in, he heard a sound coming from inside.

Her hand paused slightly, her fingers gently poked a hole in the paper window, and she looked through the hole.

"That's what my mother left for me, please give it back to me!"

Among a group of six or seven-year-old children, there was a Zaizai who was much shorter than them. He looked to be only three years old, with red eyes and tears in his eyes. He looked extremely aggrieved.

The older children kept tossing the jade pendant back and forth, teasing the little boy like a puppy.

"I want to grab it myself!"

"That's it!"

"If you have a mother but not a mother, you are the broom star and will kill your mother!"

"My mother said that your mother is not a good person either!"

"..."

Hearing them insulting him and his mother in this way, Douda's tears suddenly fell down. He pursed his lips and retorted, "My mother is not that kind of person! You are talking nonsense!"

"If your mother wasn't that kind of person, why was her father imprisoned in the cold palace?"

"That's right! Your mother did whatever it took to win favor, and that's why she was rejected by my father!"

"Your mother is a bad woman!"

"..."

Zaizai couldn't explain them all by himself, and he wanted to refute them, so he was so anxious that his tears fell faster.

"No! My mother is not such a person! You are talking nonsense! Wuwuwu..."

Seeing him crying so hard, the other princes laughed even more happily.

Seeing this scene, the woman outside the window gradually clenched her fists.

The anger in his eyes was about to overflow.

But she knew that she was in the imperial city now. If she took action and alerted the enemy, she would definitely not be able to escape, nor would she be able to leave with Yan'er.

So she could only endure it until they all left, and then find a way to bring Yan'er out of the imperial city.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the group of people finally felt bored and threw his jade pendant on the ground, broke it into two halves, and left one by one.

Zaizai squatted on the ground, sobbing, picked up the jade pendant that broke into two pieces on the ground, and carefully put it into his bag.

He raised his little hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and in a slightly hoarse voice, he comforted himself with a milky voice: "Yan'er, don't cry. Mother doesn't like Yan'er crying."

That strong look makes people feel sad to see him.

The woman looked around to make sure no one was there before climbing into the house through the window.

Hearing the noise, Zaizai was startled and looked at the woman in black in front of him with fearful eyes: "You...who are you?"

"Yan'er, Yan'er, don't be afraid, I am your third aunt."

The woman pulled off her black mask, revealing a face that was vaguely similar to her mother's.

Zaizai was stunned for a moment when he saw her face.

Tears fell instantly.

Just as he was about to throw himself into her arms and cry loudly, the woman took him into her arms and covered his mouth.

"Yan'er, be good and keep your voice down. Auntie can't be discovered by others. Auntie is here to take you away."

Zaizai bit her lower lip and nodded obediently, sobbing and holding back her cries, only letting out a few whimpers.

The woman touched his little head with gentle eyes: "Then Yan'er, can you please bear with me? When your father sends you to Mingyuan, the third aunt will come to take you away. Before that, please bear with me."

"Aunt...my mother is gone...wuwuwu~my mother drank the porridge they brought and died...my mother was killed by them..."

Zaizai cried so hard that he was out of breath, but he didn't dare to cry too loudly, so he tried his best to suppress his crying.

His eyes were red and swollen, and tears kept falling down.

The woman looked at his appearance and felt heartbroken. She held him tightly in her arms and patted his back gently to comfort him.

"Yan'er, be good. Yan'er doesn't have a mother anymore, but she still has an aunt. The aunt will take you away. From now on, you will treat your aunt as your mother, okay?"

"Ok!"

The two chatted for a while, and after the woman comforted him, she left the peach blossom cake she bought from outside before leaving.

-

Early on the next morning, Jiang Zhi went to the street and bought pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and roughly drew a map of the imperial city.

He made another copy of those rosters.

She had never used a brush to write, so her handwriting was crooked and totally inconsistent with her usual handwriting.

Even she felt embarrassed watching it.

Shen Xian came over to take a look, and couldn't help but chuckle.

Jiang Zhi awkwardly crumpled the paper into a ball and started a new one.

"I've never written with a brush... I'm not very good at writing."

Hearing this, Shen Xian took the brush from her hand and motioned for her to give up her seat: "I'll do it."

Jiang Zhi glanced at him doubtfully, stood up and stood beside him: "Can you write with a brush?"

Shen Xian didn't answer her, but picked up the brush and wrote on the paper according to what she took on her phone.

Jiang Zhi came over and took a look curiously.

Pupils widened.

He is powerful, dignified and elegant, just like the person he is, calm and elegant.

It's much prettier than her handwriting.

Looking back at her handwriting, it's a world of difference.

Jiang Zhi reluctantly sat down opposite him and waited quietly for him to finish copying.

"Where are you going today?"

Shen Xian suddenly asked her.

Jiang Zhi held his chin in his hands and put his elbows on the table. He thought for a moment: "Let's go meet that Zaizai. His specific address is not written on it, but I guess he must be at Brother's place. When he arrives, Bro, let’s look for them one by one.”

"Ah."

"And just at this time, the other princes have gone to the study room, so I think he is the only one left here for easy contact."

"Okay, listen to you."

Shen Xian lowered his eyes and continued to copy.

After a while, I finished copying all the rosters and lists, and also drew a simple map of the imperial city.

Jiang Zhi spread the written things out one by one on the table and waited for the ink to dry naturally.

Take a closer look at what's on this list.

The former residence of Concubine Liu was Zhaoyang Palace.

Just by hearing the name "Zhaoyang", you can imagine how much Concubine Liu was once loved, but now she was reduced to being imprisoned in the cold palace and died. It is really sad.

Women in ancient times were so pitiful.

Jiang Zhi shook his head and sighed.

In that palace that eats people without spitting out their bones, the Ninth Prince, who was only three years old, lost his mother's protection and had no idea how much suffering he would suffer.

In such an environment, it is no wonder that he would grow into a world-destroying demon.

Because I have never felt warmth, I only have indifference in my heart.

Family of origin is really important.

What your family of origin is like depends on what kind of person you will grow up to be.

Jiang Zhi continued to look down.

Even if Liu Guifei was relegated to the cold palace, Zhaoyang Palace has always been empty. If the emperor really disliked Liu Guifei, why would he keep her Zhaoyang Palace?
  Obviously, the emperor was also moved by his true feelings.

But since ancient times, the emperor's family has been ruthless.

Even if there is true love, it cannot compare to the country and the people.

The emperor was suspicious by nature and would rather catch someone wrong than let it go. Maybe, he just wanted to put Liu Guifei into the cold palace and continue the investigation. He wanted to clear Liu Guifei of suspicion and then release her. He never thought that heaven and earth would be separated forever.

Or perhaps, he really disliked Concubine Liu. She had passed away, and he remembered every bit of the past, so he didn't let anyone else live in Zhaoyang Palace.

Jiang Zhi was immediately grateful that she was not born in ancient times.

You can do what you want, everyone is equal and free, and you are not bound by marriage or rules.

While she was looking at the papers, a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, blocking her view.

When he looked up, he happened to meet Shen Xian's emotionless eyes.

"Do you want to eat? I just asked the waiter to bring it to you."

Shen Xian put the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table in front of her and sat down opposite her.

"Thank you."

Jiang Zhi picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and put it into his mouth: "It's sweet but not greasy, and it has the aroma of osmanthus. It's delicious."

"Eat as much as you like."

Jiang Zhi brought the plate in front of him: "Teacher Shen, you should eat some too."

Shen Xian nodded, picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and put it into his mouth.

"Is it tasty?"

Jiang Zhi asked subconsciously.

Hearing this, Shen Xian was stunned for a moment, and then replied uncertainly: "Okay...eat?"

Jiang Zhi was stunned for a moment after his answer before he reacted.

How could she forget that Teacher Shen has no sense of taste and everything he eats has no taste? How can he taste whether it tastes good or not?

No wonder he has the smallest appetite among all the teachers.

No matter what I eat, it has no taste, plus I don’t feel hungry.

If it were her, she would basically not want to eat.

"Sorry, I forgot..."

Jiang Zhi gave him a slightly apologetic look.

Shen Xian shook his head.

After eating, the paper was almost dry.

Jiang Zhi carefully collected the papers in order and put them into the bundle.

Tie on the baggage and everything is ready.

Shen Xian raised his hand and opened the portal on the wall. The two of them walked into the tunnel, walked to the end and exited, arriving at the elder brother's residence in the imperial city.

At this time, all the elder brothers have gone to the study, and only a few servants are left in the elder brother's office.

The two quietly avoided the servants and went one by one.

Finally, I found the figure of Zai Zai in one of them.

The two of them squatted at the window and went in in no hurry.

Instead, look in from the outside to see what he is doing.

Zaizai was seen sitting on a chair, holding a broken jade pendant in his hand. There was no expression on his face, but there was deep sadness and longing in his eyes.

After sitting for a while, a tear fell from his eye.

But after realizing it immediately, he raised his hand to wipe away his tears.

He muttered not knowing what he was talking about.

Jiang Zhi calmed down and listened carefully.

"Yan'er don't cry, Yan'er must be good, don't let mother worry..."

Jiang Zhi's heart twitched when he heard what he said.

How could there be such a sensible Zaizai?
  He lost his mother when he was only three years old, and he asked himself not to cry and not to worry his dead mother.

Jiang Zhi took a deep breath and climbed in through the window.

Shen Xian followed her and climbed in.

Hearing the noise coming from behind, Zaizai subconsciously turned around and looked at the two strangers. His eyes instantly became wary. He held the jade pendant in his little hand and ran to the corner to stand.

"who are you?"

Jiang Zhi smiled at him and said, "Don't be nervous, we won't hurt you."

Although she spoke as gently as possible, Zaizai obviously still didn't believe her and kept watching them vigilantly.

Jiang Zhi's eyes fell on the jade pendant in his hand.

"I can help you repair the jade pendant in your hand."

Hearing this, Zaizai looked stunned, and the vigilance in his eyes dissipated a little. Perhaps Jiang Zhi's appearance was indeed approachable, making people want to get close to her involuntarily.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Really?"

Jiang Zhi nodded: "Really, I can definitely help you fix it."

Looking at her firm eyes, Zaizai looked down at the jade pendant in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then walked towards them and handed the jade pendant to her: "Here you are..."

Jiang Zhi took the jade pendant, sat down at the table, and took out the 502 glue from the bag.

She discovered that these things that did not exist in ancient times would not become what they were in ancient times, but would continue to be what they were in modern times.

Although there is no special glue for jewelry, but the current conditions are limited, I can only help him stick the jade pendant together first, and then help him seal it with glue when he returns.

Jiang Zhi first cleaned the section, wiped it carefully and dried it.

His jade pendant doesn't lack much flesh, it just needs to be glued together.

Soon, Jiang Zhi glued his jade pendant together. If you don't look carefully, you can't see a crack in the middle.

"All right."

Jiang Zhi returned the glued jade pendant to Zaizai.

Zaizai's eyes widened, he took the jade pendant with both hands, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow! Thank you!"

Jiang Zhi reached out and touched his little head: "You're welcome."

The little guy was visibly happy.

He held the jade pendant and touched it lovingly, then carefully put it into the bag.

"Whose jade pendant belongs to?" Jiang Zhi asked casually, "Why is it cracked?"

Hearing what she asked, Zaizai's expression became much darker: "This jade pendant was left to me by my mother. It was broken by...my brothers. They don't like me, nor do they like my mother... …”

Zaizai bit his lower lip and said nothing more.

Jiang Zhian sighed and touched his head distressedly: "Then do you want to leave this place?"

Zaizai was stunned for a moment: "Leave?"

Jiang Zhi nodded: "Yes, leave and go to a place called kindergarten. It is very peaceful and interesting. There will also be a group of children similar to your age to play with you and go to class with you. They will not starve or freeze. No There will be people who will bully you, and there will be no people who will hate you.”

Listening to her words, Zaizai was stunned.

Is there really such a good place in the world?
  but……

Zaizai came back to his senses and shook his head: "No."

Jiang Zhi was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that he would refuse.

"why?"

"Because my aunt said that she would come to pick me up and leave, so I have to wait for my aunt and can't leave with you."

Only then did Jiang Zhi think of the woman in black the night before.

She really had the same goal as them, she wanted to take Zaizai away from here.

But even if she takes him away from here, the two of them will still have to live in hiding every day and night.

This kind of life will not be easy.

It would be better to give Zaizai to them and let them take him back to raise him for three years. It is announced here that the Ninth Prince is dead.

Three years later, this incident has long been forgotten, and it happens to be a suitable day to come back. (End of chapter)
