Bai Zhi’er opened her large eyes, resembling Black Pearls.
"Uncle, why did you hide this in your hair?"
Xu Lianzhou helplessly said, "Because your mother entrusted to keep it safe and give it to you."
"Everyone in the world covets it and wants to fight for it. Today I’ve seen Zhi’er, so I can return this to its rightful owner."
Bai Zhi’er stretched out her small hand and took the iron piece to have a look.
It’s just an ordinary item.
On the front, there’s a "Jing" character engraved.
Xu Lianzhou explained, "Zhi’er, take this iron token to a bank nad Jinyu Building in the Capital, and exchange it with them, they will give you the item."
"Originally, I should accompany Zhi’er to retrieve it, but I am too weak now, moving is difficult."
"To avoid unforeseen complications, Zhi’er should retrieve the item first and place it sowhere only she knows."
"I don’t know whether the princely heir is trustworthy, so I sent them away."
"Zhi’er can find a trusted person to accompany you."
Bai Zhi’er’s round, fair face was filled with curiosity.
"What would mother leave for ?"
Xu Lianzhou gently shook his head, "I don’t know either, I’ve only heard from my sister that this item is very important."
"And many people believe it’s a treasure that can bring longevity, wealth, and power."
"Zhi’er, keep it safe, don’t let anyone with ill intentions steal it."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi’er quickly nodded.
She placed the iron piece in her wallet that she carries with her.
Next to her favorite candied snacks.
Xu Lianzhou felt a sense of relief.
He thought that he wouldn’t be able to fulfill Jing Jia’s entrustnt in his lifeti.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but tear up.
"Zhi’er, is your mother living well now?"
Bai Xilie ascended the throne, and the only empress position should belong to Jing Jia.
The little one’s soft voice answered, "Mother is busy, she didn’t co back with , let co first to help father."
Xu Lianzhou looked at her cute and charming face and couldn’t help but smile.
Bai Zhi’er’s moist eyes blinked.
She was examining Xu Lianzhou’s injuries.
Before leaving last night, she left a bit of mana.
Though not much, it’s enough to help Xu Lianzhou’s organs and veins slowly recover.
What she saw brought her relief, seeing Xu Lianzhou’s muscles and veins slowly rebuilding.
Indeed, as Third Brother said, what’s left is just a matter of ti!
She held onto Xu Lianzhou’s hand, "Uncle, even though I t you late, when mother is not around, Zhi’er will protect you!"
"Once you are fully recovered, let’s go fly kites!"
Hearing this, Xu Lianzhou slightly smiled, "Alright, for Zhi’er, I will definitely recover quickly."
His tangled hair had been cleaned.
Now his refreshing short hair further highlights his outstanding looks.
There is a hint of Jianghu heroism and decisiveness.
Suddenly, Xu Lianzhou noticed so residual scent on Bai Zhi’er.
He furrowed his brows and sniffed carefully.
"Zhi’er, where did you go earlier?"
The little one blinked her long eyelashes, puzzled.
"I ca from the palace, passed by the kitchen."
"Did you touch anything?"
Bai Zhi’er shook her head, "No~ I just saw two bad maids taking Third Aunt’s dicine off the stove, and I scolded them!"
Xu Lianzhou’s gaze deepened, "There is sothing wrong with the kitchen, having road Jianghu for years, even the slightest hint of dicine powder I can sll."
"This sll is like tian nanxing, it’s harmless for blood, but dangerous for miscarriage."
