The immortal of the Tang Dynasty, but the game starts at Xuanwu Gate?

The moment Chen Huai'an's name was uttered, it seemed to trigger some strange reaction, as many officials turned to look at him!

Besides officials, there are also many people sent by forces from Chang'an to inquire about the situation of the disaster victims.

At this moment, their attention was almost entirely drawn to Xiao He in front of Xu Zhang!

"Your uncle... is really named Chen Huai'an?" Xu Zhang was utterly shocked and swallowed hard.

Almost everyone in the upper echelons of Chang'an knew about Chen Huai'an's background, and it was certain that Chen Huai'an's parents had passed away.

However, he also had an older sister who ran away with her daughter and their whereabouts are unknown; it was not necessarily said that she was dead.

"Yes, Your Honor, my uncle's name really is Chen Huai'an. My mother told me so. Please help me find my mother," Xiao He pleaded tearfully. "Xiao He kowtows to you."

As she spoke, she actually tried to kneel down, which startled Xu Zhang so much that he immediately came to his senses and practically pounced on her to stop her.

"No...don't kneel!"

Xu Zhang was terrified; cold sweat broke out on his back.

If this really is the niece of Duke Anguo, Chen Huai'an, he cannot accept such a kneeling.

Isn't this going to kill him?

"Your mother's name is Chen Sujin, right? I'll help you find her, I'll help you find her." Xu Zhang said, then hurriedly shouted to the people behind him, "Quick! Quickly bring some water to wash this young... lady's face!"

"quick!"

"Yes, yes!" The official who had been standing there in a daze did not dare to delay and quickly brought over a basin of water.

Xu Zhang immediately called over a peasant woman to help Xiao He wash her face, not daring to touch her himself.

Although Xiaohe didn't understand why the official wanted her to wash her face first, she could only rely on him to find her mother now, so despite her anxiety, she obediently cooperated.

When the peasant woman helped Xiaohe wipe her face clean, Xu Zhang almost fell to the ground.

Yes, they look alike!

so similar!

Even though this little girl named Xiaohe was thin, her face was almost bloodless, her hair was dry and yellow, and her teeth were even a bit black, her eyebrows, eyes, and nose were exactly like Chen Huai'an's.

It's perfectly normal for a nephew to resemble his uncle!

"It's over...it's over," Xu Zhang muttered to himself, a wave of panic washing over him.

He had just heard from Xiao He that the other party's mother, the woman who was likely the elder sister of Duke Anguo, Chen Huai'an, had been captured by some unruly people.

It might even be sold?

The thought of this possibility filled Xu Zhang with panic. He knew this was not something he could handle, so he immediately summoned all the soldiers to protect Xiao He.

At the same time, many people who came to inquire about the situation of the disaster victims all noticed this scene.

After Xiaohe shouted, "My uncle's name is Chen Huai'an," the disaster victims seemed less important.

Those who know the inside story understand.

Something big is about to happen!

"..."

In Cui Xuan's residence, the scout recounted everything that had just happened in front of Chang'an City. Cui Xuan's expression after listening to it was truly remarkable.

"Are you sure? That really is Chen Huai'an's niece?"

The scout hurriedly replied, "Your Excellency, I am certain that the young lady looks remarkably like the Duke of Anguo, and she also said that her mother's name is Chen Sujin."

"This is exactly the same name you asked us to find out before."

Cui Xuan fell silent upon hearing this.

He never expected that Chen Huai'an's sister would appear in such a dramatic way.

Not to mention Chen Huai'an, they had tried all sorts of methods to successfully obtain the salt profits.

Chen Huai'an's missing sister naturally came into their view.

The Cui family also sent many people to inquire about Chen Sujin, hoping to get Chen Huai'an to confess, but they found nothing.

They didn't have much hope at the time; they just wanted to give it a try.

After all, in this world, a penniless woman with a child who hasn't even learned to walk yet has a very slim chance of survival.

Unexpectedly, I have now received a message from Chen Sujin.

Cui Xuan pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Search! Ignore Chen Huai'an's niece. Mobilize all available personnel and send them out to search!"

"We must find those three troublemakers and bring Chen Sujin back before anyone else!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" The scout dared not delay and immediately left.

At the same time, the Zheng family, the Lu family, the Wang family, the Cui family of Qinghe, and the Li family—these five surnames and seven prominent families—as well as the major powers, clans, and high-ranking officials in Chang'an City, almost all received this news.

Everyone's reaction was the same!

找！

We must search the entire city of Chang'an and bring Chen Sujin back safely!

Meanwhile, inside the Duke of Anguo's mansion.

"Sir! Sir!"

Wang Bai rushed into the Duke of Anguo's mansion in a state of extreme panic, almost recklessly barging through the crowd.

The arrival of the disaster victims was something Chen Huai'an had been concerned about, so he naturally sent Wang Bai to investigate the situation.

But Wang Bai never expected that, instead of finding out much about the disaster victims, he would find out about his husband's niece!

After confirming repeatedly that the people he sent out were not lying, Wang Bai felt a sudden darkness before his eyes.

Others might not know, but how could Wang Bai, Chen Huai'an's current confidant, not know?

In recent days, Chen Huai'an has never given up searching for his sister. Whenever he went to other places to buy grain, Chen Huai'an would ask him to inquire about her.

When the name Chen Sujin came out, Wang Bai knew that she might really be the gentleman's sister.

If that's the case, then it's naturally a good thing.

The crucial point is that the gentleman's sister, Chen Sujin... has been arrested!

"Sir!"

Wang Bai found Chen Huai'an, who was leisurely resting in the backyard: "Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"

Chen Huai'an frowned, slightly opened his eyes, and said helplessly, "Wang Bai, you've been with me for so long, how come you're still so impatient?"

"How many times have I told you? Don't panic when something happens. Stay calm, stay calm, you understand?"

Wang Bai said anxiously, "Sir, I can't stay calm!"

"Your granddaughter... your grandniece has been found, right in front of Chang'an City. She said her uncle's name is Chen Huai'an, and her mother's name is Chen Sujin!"

"..."

Chen Huai'an's nonchalant expression froze instantly. His usually calm and collected mind was momentarily blank.

"What's your name...?"

"Chen Sujin, Chen Sujin!" Wang Bai emphasized, "Sir, this...!"

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Bai felt a blur before his eyes, and then it felt as if two huge rocks were pressing on his shoulders, causing him excruciating pain!

"Chen Sujin!!!" Chen Huai'an was overjoyed. He grabbed Wang Bai and shook him violently, shouting, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? It really is Chen Sujin?"

Wang Bai's face was contorted with rage. Now he finally understood just how much force Zhang Ming had endured that day.

"Yes... sir, it really is, her name is Chen Sujin, but... but your sister was kidnapped by bad guys and is now missing. Only your niece is left..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Bai's eyes filled with panic, because he felt as if his shoulder was about to shatter, and the surrounding air became incredibly cold.

The warm spring sunshine in the backyard of the Duke's mansion suddenly turned into the dead of winter, with a bone-chilling cold creeping up your spine.
