At noon, the prince sent someone over to ask Yu Hanjiang about the result of the interrogation. Yu Hanjiang only replied, "The assassins are from the Yan state. I will continue to investigate who is acting behind the curtains."

If they hadn't arrived in time to intercept the assassins, the assassins would've surely been taken back to the prince's mansion by QIn Rui and the third young lady. They would've been personally interrogated by the prince.

According to the news heard by Liu Qiao, the assassins were loyal to the 'master' and their families controlled. They couldn't betray the organization. Moreover, they hadn't seen what the 'master' looked like. They all listened to Aunt Qing's orders.

Aunt Qing, who had more information, wasn't caught this time so the prince couldn't judge anything.

The news from the Yan state's side still had to be provided by people who had been to Yan.

Most likely, this man was Xiao Lou's brother, who had been missing for years.

In Xiao Lou's memories, he came to Jiangzhou with his mother when he was 12 years old. It was because his father was murdered by someone when he was 12 years old and his mother took him to escape, making him pretend to be a woman. The mother and son settled outside Jiangzhou as a migrant doctor.

His younger brother should've lived in Jiangzhou for a while. After all, his brother was young and couldn't have gone to the front lines before he was 10 years old? However, Xiao Lou had no memories of his brother. This might be due to the fact that his brother hadn't appeared yet, so the memory clues weren't triggered.

The medicine hut outside the city had been burned by a fire and Liu Qiao couldn't stay there these days. In any case, Shao Qingge had plenty of money and he set up Liu Qiao in an inn in the city to facilitate contact.

Late at night, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang waited by the big tree near the medicine hut outside Jiangzhou City. The other teammates were hiding nearby, ready to respond if there was an accident.

Liu Qiao directly climbed up the tree with her light footwork card while Long Sen became the colour of the trunk, blending in with the big tree. Ye Qi, Shao Qingge, Old Mo and the others all hid in the vicinity with their invisibility cloaks.

So don't look at the fact that there were only Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang next to the tree. In fact, all their teammates were here!

It was a beautiful night. The moon was high in the sky and the stars were shining brightly. It was very quiet around them and even the breathing of their teammates couldn't be heard. Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang stood next to each other and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Yu Hanjiang took the initiative to open his mouth. "Are you thinking of your brother again?"

Xiao Lou acted in coordination. "Yes, he never contacted me after he went to the front line. He disappeared for many years and I don't know if he is dead or alive. My mother's death day is coming soon and I still can't find my brother's whereabouts. I really can't explain it to her grave.

Yu Hanjiang gently held Xiao Lou's shoulders and whispered, "Don't worry too much. I have entrusted some friends on the front line to ask. Once they find out where your brother is, they will immediately send us a flying pigeon letter. Since his body hasn't been found for so many years, maybe he is still alive."

Xiao Lou nodded gently. "I hope so."

The teammates around them, "......"

The Oscars owed them a pair of acting awards!

Ye Qi couldn't help thinking that the more Group Leader Yu called Professor Xiao 'madam', the easier it became. They acted as husband and wife without any sense of disobedience! Professor Xiao was also very devoted to dressing up as a woman. Unlike Ye Qi, who had a headache when playing Miss Ye. It seemed that he could only be a singer in the future. The acting circle was completely out of the question because his acting skills aren't qualified at all.
