"Zimu, Chen Zimu?" Shen Ran looked worriedly.

"No! Mother—"

Chen Yuan suddenly woke up from the nightmare.

His eyes were out of focus, his pupils were trembling, and his hands were holding the quilt hard.

Seeing this situation, Shen Ran didn't know what to say, so he just patted Chen Yuan's shoulder quietly, waiting for him to calm down.

For a long time, Chen Yuan's eyes gradually focused, and she looked at Shen Ran with tears in her eyes: "Brother Shen Ran, mother is gone. I just dreamed that mother doesn't want us anymore. She disappeared..."

Hearing this, Shen Ran felt a dull pain in his heart for a moment. Sure enough, he and Chen Yuan were not flustered for no reason during this period, but it was a sign...

However, he is an older brother after all. In this situation, he must keep his mind calm, "It's okay, maybe my mother will come back soon."

"Do you think so?" Chen Yuan lowered his eyes. He didn't know if he would come back after falling off the cliff after being searched for so long.

"Yes!" Shen Ran said with firm eyes, "Don't you know? Our mother is not an ordinary person, she will come back!"

Hearing this, Chen Yuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, yes, my mother is not an ordinary person, she will definitely come back!
He will come back, he has to wait for her, he has to wait for his mother!

Little did he know that this wait would last ten years...

-

In the past ten years, the Shen family's business has gradually fallen into a disadvantage due to Shen Yan's disappearance. Coupled with the lack of a supportive background, its development began to stagnate, and it only expanded to three cities near Phoenix City.

On the other hand, the Xia family, under Xia Anning's methods, gradually expanded its business beyond Phoenix City to the whole country, and even became as famous as the Ning family!

The disappearance of Shen Yan alarmed King Jing to a certain extent. After all, Shen Yan's abilities were certified by him and there were many useful things. At that time, he once suspected that Shen Yan was kidnapped by an enemy country.

But after several years of investigation, it was discovered that Shen Yan really had no trace, as if such a person did not exist in this world.

Therefore, later on, King Jing did not send people to investigate earlier, and the official position that Shen Yan prepared at that time was abandoned.

After Shen Ran passed the examination to become a scholar, he accompanied Chen Yuan in another examination. As expected, Chen Yuan was Jieyuan and he was second. However, he did not go to the subsequent examinations.

Because he was going to Beijing, and the five years mentioned at that time were almost up, he left the Shen family and went to another place. He didn't tell anyone where exactly, not even Chen Yuan...

When Chen Yuan learned that Shen Yan was missing, she was in a daze for a while. Later, with the help of Shen Ran, she adjusted herself and made up her mind to become a top official. Only when she has power can she find people better. It can also give people a good guarantee after her mother comes back. This was Chen Yuan's idea at the time.

So after Shen Ran left, as expected, he won three yuan in a row, entered the palace examination, and was selected by Emperor Qinglan as the number one scholar to be paraded through the streets.

Later, he entered the Hanlin Academy to study. After another year or two, due to his outstanding strength, he was directly appointed as the Minister of Rites after leaving the Hanlin Academy. After another year or two, the former prime minister resigned and Chen Yuan was elected.

Chen Yuan became the prime minister again. It was unprecedented for him to become the prime minister at such a young age, but Emperor Qinglan ordered Chen Yuan to become the prime minister.

Those officials who objected slowly shut their mouths after seeing Chen Yuan's methods and strength.

Chen Yuan is one of the pawns set up by Emperor Qinglan for the reform of Qinglan Kingdom. Of course, Chen Yuan is also willing to be this pawn.

However, there has been no news about his mother for so many years.

Chen Yuan almost thought that Shen Yan had really disappeared. "Sir, His Majesty has summoned you!"

Chen Yuan raised his head from a pile of memorials, glanced at a respectful young eunuch, and responded quietly: "Okay, I understand."

Hearing this, the little eunuch bowed his eyebrows and retreated.

Before going out, I quietly took a look at the youngest Prime Minister, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I have to say that this Prime Minister is really good-looking. I still remember that when I was riding a horse in the street, I would catch someone from the bottom of the list. The grand occasion of a son-in-law has not happened in many years!

Those sachets were thrown at the Prime Minister as if they were free of charge. The older girl and the younger daughter-in-law were almost unable to walk when they saw Chen Yuan. In fact, Chen Yuan's appearance at that time was considered outstanding, with a handsome face and a tall figure. Thick eyebrows and starry eyes, gentle and deep eyes as clear and bright as the bright moon, her expression exudes nobility and grace, making it difficult to take your eyes away.

You know, Xu Zhiyan, who was known as the most handsome man in the capital, did not do this when he was paraded through the streets. Of course, Ning Wuzhi rarely appeared in front of the world, so his name was not on the list of the most beautiful men in the capital.

Chen Yuan straightened her robes, slightly hooked up her lips, and walked outside with her feet calm and calm, and her behavior revealed nobility and elegance, which was pleasing to the eye.

"My lord." The little eunuch said with a smile on his face, and he flattered the carriage curtain.

Chen Yuan didn't say anything when he saw it.

After getting on the carriage and driving for a while, Chen Yuan habitually opened the carriage curtain and looked outside through the window.

Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. I can’t say that the figure is familiar, but the feeling is very familiar!
However, when Chen Yuan saw the profile of the man's face under the scarf, his pupils shrank suddenly, "Stop the car!"

The sound was so loud that it frightened the young man driving the car. He jerked the reins. Before he could ask what happened, he saw the carriage swaying. When he reacted, he opened the curtain of the carriage and saw that it was gone. The figure of the Prime Minister!

"grown ups?"

The boy quickly looked around and finally found his master's figure somewhere.

However, why does the adult look so panicked? Xiao Xizi has never seen the adult look so rude in such a long time!

"Mother——"

Chen Yuan quickly ran to the place where he saw the man just now and stopped. He looked around and saw that the man was gone!
Chen Yuan refused to give up and searched everywhere again, but there was still no one there.

However, because Chen Yuan was still in a busy market during this moment, many people naturally recognized Chen Yuan and excitedly wanted to get in front of Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan also saw this situation.

Suddenly he felt irritable. In order not to cause chaos, Chen Yuan had no choice but to get on the carriage again. He closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly. Was it another illusion?

But it really seems...

"Sir, do you still want to go to the palace now?" Xiao Xizi didn't understand what happened, so she spoke carefully.

"Let's go to the palace."

The carriage started to move again.

Those who were extremely excited were blocked outside by a group of guards and could not get close to Chen Yuan's carriage.
