Yun Jinshi took Bi Tong for a walk according to the memories of her previous life, but did not find the figure she was looking for.
"Miss, who are you looking for?"
Bi Tong soon discovered Yun Jinshi's absent-mindedness, but except for the masters of the Yun family, she had never seen her young lady get particularly close to anyone.
"Find a child, about this tall, wearing rags..."
Yun Jinshi gestured and walked again unwillingly. The disappointment that she still couldn't find it made her a little irritated.
Could it be that everything really can only follow the order of what happened in the previous life?
At this moment, an angry voice came from not far away: "You little bastard, if you dare to come here and steal buns, I will beat you to death!"
Yun Jinshi looked over for the sound and happened to see a bun seller in front of a vendor, kicking and beating a child severely.
He had obviously been beaten to the ground, but the child seemed to feel no pain and was still stuffing the bun in his hand into his mouth desperately.
A familiar outfit appeared in Yun Jinshi's mind, causing her expression to change immediately.
"stop!"
Ignoring the looks of the people around her, she quickly ran over and stood in front of the stall owner.
"I'll give you the price of the buns. Don't fight."
As she finished speaking, Bi Tong beside her had already taken out the scattered copper plates and handed them over.
It is not uncommon for a young master from a wealthy family to save a beggar on a whim in places like the capital.
Some are to save people, some are to show kindness, and some, maybe there is no use in rescuing them. No one cares whether a beggar lives or dies.
Therefore, after the bun seller got the money, he naturally didn't care about anything else.
Yun Jinshi felt a pang in his heart when he looked at the dying little guy lying on the ground.
When they first met in the previous life, the child was half dead. He thought it was two days early in this life, but he still couldn't escape it.
According to memory, the child who must have been eight years old looked as if he was only five or six years old. His body was in tatters and his young face was so thin that there was no flesh at all. Picking him up from the ground was so light that it made people feel distressed.
Sensing some resistance from the little guy, Yun Jinshi spoke cautiously, as if she was afraid of scaring him.
"Don't be afraid, I will take you home, no one can hurt you..."
Her voice was very soft, but full of determination, making people inexplicably want to believe it.
The little guy stopped struggling and let her carry him back to Jing'an Marquis Mansion.
On the contrary, Bi Tong next to her had questions all over her face, but she didn't know how to speak.
It wasn't until she returned to Jingan Hou Mansion and saw Yun Jinshi carrying the little beggar into the room that Bi Tong couldn't help it and hurried forward.
"Miss, although this child is not old, there is an old saying that for seven years, men and women will not sit together or eat together. It is not appropriate for you to bring him back like this. If you bring him back into your own house~~~"
"Hurry up and call the doctor!"
Yun Jinshi didn't have time to explain to Bi Tong now. She just wanted the child to be safe.
Seeing something was wrong with Yun Jinshi, Bi Tong had no choice but to do as she said.
The doctor arrived soon. Fortunately, the child was not seriously injured. The main injuries were on his arms and legs.
Yun Jinshi was relieved, but also felt even more distressed.
What kind of environment can enable a child of this age to learn to protect himself when being beaten?
"It's just... Madam, this child's body is very weak. I'm afraid it won't be able to be nursed back in a while."
The doctor's words were hesitant. In his mind, Yun Jinshi had saved a little beggar, and it was probably just a moment of soft-heartedness.
If you don't plan to take good care of this child, taking care of it for a while may not be a good thing for this child.
"I understand, thank you doctor."
After sending away the doctor, Yun Jinshi immediately asked his servants to prepare hot water and clothes.
She asked Bi Tong to prepare water, and then asked her to go out and buy a few sets of clothes to put on when the child wakes up.
At the same time, the air pressure in the study room of the Prince Regent's Palace was frighteningly low. The secret guard was kneeling on the ground, his head lowered, and his body was shaking slightly.
"You mean, the young prince is at Yunjinshi's place now?"
Yan Jingxing's voice was low, his dazzling black eyes were like cold stars, and his whole body was exuding a biting cold air like frost.
That extraordinary kingly aura makes people feel breathless.
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me!" The secret guard lowered his head.
The man in green shirt next to him was thinking about everything, and his face was a little solemn: "It is said that this Madam of the Hou Mansion is devoted to the Hou Mansion, and even loyal to the Hou Mansion. It is rumored that she loves Song Jingqian deeply... Do you think she will do this now? Is it because you know the little prince’s life experience and want to pave the way for Song Jingqian?”
Yan Jingxing lowered his eyes, his eyelashes silhouetted against his lower eyelids, and tapped on the table with his slender fingers.
"Probably not. You'er's identity is top secret. He has never been exposed since he came out of Xifeng Kingdom. Otherwise, we wouldn't have tracked him for so long to find out. Yun Jinshi was a woman who never left home. It's even more impossible to know. As for her and Song Jingqian..."
When he thought of Yun Jin, he thought of the woman's words at Hanshan Temple last time when she said she liked him and ruined Song Jingqian's reputation. That look on her face was definitely not a lie.
Moreover, what she said about Song Jingqian raising a woman outside and having an illegitimate child is also true.
At the border, this matter is not difficult to check.
As for her so-called happiness with herself...
"My lord, are you... laughing?"
There was too much uncertainty in the man's tone. It wasn't that Yan Jingxing never smiled, but that he could still laugh after losing his child?
"My lord, didn't you say that that is your nephew, who will become the young prince of the Prince Regent's Palace after he comes back? Why do you seem to be in no hurry at all now?"
"I think it would be good for him to be there at Yunjinshi."
If he was brought back to the Regent's Palace, let alone the various investigations by the officials in the court, although he was not afraid, Youer was the only bloodline left by his sister, and he had to protect him.
Since there are mistakes, it is better to make mistakes.
"Yan Jingxing, are you serious?"
"Do you think this king is joking?"
The man in green shirt seemed like he couldn't believe it. When did Yan Jingxing become so trustworthy?
…
In the deep, starless night, a black shadow passed over the Jing'an Marquis Mansion and headed straight for the backyard.
The shadow moves nimblely and steps lightly, like a leopard hunting in the middle of the night without making any sound.
Yun Jinshi dragged her tired body to the bathtub. After taking off her clothes one by one, she put her hand in the water and gently moved it. The warm water flowed through her fingertips.
I don't know how much the child suffered, but he slept all day without waking up.
She couldn't bear it anymore, so she could only let Bi Tong guard there for her.
A gust of cold wind passed by, and Yun Jinshi's heart suddenly tightened. Before she could say anything, a big hand had already covered her mouth and nose.
"Well……"
