With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"Xu Zhiyuan actually escaped?" Li Shuang was shocked after hearing this. "The Xu family are serious criminals, imprisoned on death row with the Ming family. The fact that he was released shows that he has considerable power."

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Li An asked.

"Go to the Prince Li's residence now and have Nangong Yi investigate this matter," Nangong Wu said.

"Alright, I'll go find him now!" Li Shuang turned and left.

"I'm fine here, you should go and rest too!" Nangong Wu told Li An to go down as well, as there were important things to do tomorrow.

This time, she will ensure that the Ming and Xu families have no chance of recovery.

The next morning, Li Shuang brought back new news.

"Your Highness, Prince Li led his men to the Ministry of Justice prison overnight and found that all the prison guards inside had been drugged. Fortunately, only Xu Zhiyuan escaped."

His Highness Prince Le has now suspended the Minister of Justice and the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice from their posts and is personally investigating this matter.

"Only the jailer has the key to the death row. Moreover, King Le has also decreed that no one may enter the death row without his order, except for shift changes."

Even if this person brings Xu Zhiyuan out, he will still have to go through layers of checks before he can leave the death row. Therefore, the person who can bring someone out of the death row must be at least the Vice Minister or Minister of the Ministry of Justice," Li An guessed.

"Just wait and see!" Nangong Wu thought that if Nangong Yi couldn't even do this simple thing well, then he was truly useless!

"Let's go out and investigate again."

"Today, send out all the officers and men to ensure that all those involved in the case are brought to justice!" Nangong Wu could not entrust the matter to Nangong Yi beforehand.

"yes!"

Li Shuang and Li An withdrew.

Granny Feng brought up the crying Nangong Xi, "Your Highness! The little princess has a fever again and refuses to nurse."

"Let me take a look." Nangong Wu took her daughter.

This child was born with a deficiency and is frequently ill. Moreover, once he gets sick, the illness recurs repeatedly, and he takes medicine almost every day. It's truly heartbreaking.

She took out fever reducer and fed it to the child.

"I heard Xi'er crying. Is she hungry?"

Nangong Wu looked up and saw that Xiao Lin had arrived, followed by Feng Wushang, who had come to check on her and the children's health.

"Xi'er has a slight fever, I just gave her some medicine."

Upon hearing that Nangong Xi had a fever again, Feng Wushang frowned. "I'll come and take a look."

Hearing the child's hoarse voice, Xiao Lin felt a pang of heartache. "Did he catch a cold?"

"The child was born with congenital deficiencies and a weak constitution, making him prone to illness." Nangong Wu felt both distressed and helpless.

If she hadn't come, even if the original owner had safely given birth to the child, this daughter wouldn't have been born.

Now I just hope that she will be healthier when she grows up.

Xiao Lin's eyes turned cold. "Don't worry! I'll make sure the Zhou family suffers a terrible death."

He had already had someone investigate and found that it was the Zhou family who had locked her up and caused her to suffer from hunger and cold during her pregnancy, which led to the birth defects in the baby.

"They're already in jail," Nangong Wu said.

She will not let those people off the hook, but the damage has already been done. If her daughter's health continues like this, she will probably be dependent on medication for the rest of her life, becoming a walking pharmacy.

"Granny Feng, bring Yu'er and Jue'er up here so I can take a look." Xiao Lin sat down in the main seat next to Nangong Wu, acting like the master of the house.

Granny Feng couldn't help but glance at Nangong Wu.

Nangong Wu nodded, "Go! Bring the child here so Young Master Wushang can check his pulse." She knew that Xiao Lin genuinely cared for the child.

"Yes."

Granny Feng went downstairs and had the wet nurse bring Nangong Yu and Nangong Jue up.

Xiao Lin took both children, holding one in each arm.

The two children in her arms were chubby and fair-skinned, and looked almost identical. The only difference was that the younger child's eyes resembled Nangong Wu's, but the corners of his eyes weren't as long. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't tell who was the older one and who was the younger one.

It took him several days of research to distinguish between the two children by looking at the corners of their eyes.

"When you two were in your mother's womb, you must have been squeezing your sister in between." He was convinced that this was the case.

Girls are smaller than boys, and with three babies in one womb, they are bound to be squeezed together. The mother also eats poorly, so the nutrition she receives is pitifully little.

"It's just that Xi'er has suffered."

"Your Highness, Young Master Xiao, don't worry too much," Feng Wushang comforted them. "I have treated many children like Princess Jinyu who were born with congenital deficiencies before. As long as they are well cared for, they will get better when they turn three."

Xiao Lin's eyes showed worry. He understood what he meant: the child should be well cared for until the age of three, and it would be good if he could make it past the age of three.

"Young Master Feng, is there any medicine that can strengthen a child's body?"

"There are quite a few. The Prince's Mansion already has them, and we always use the best medicinal herbs for the young princess." Feng Wushang wasn't worried about not having good medicinal herbs.

The Huo family's businesses span multiple sectors, making them incredibly wealthy, with more high-quality medicinal herbs than the national treasury.

"I once saw a medicine in an ancient medical book called Seven-Colored Lotus, which is said to strengthen the body..."

Where can I find it?

Nangong Wu and Xiao Lin spoke in unison.

"I've never seen this Seven-Colored Lotus before, and I don't know if it even exists?" Feng Wushang shook his head.

"Since it's mentioned in the medical classics, it's highly likely that it exists. Tell me about the Seven-Colored Lotus again, and I'll look for it when I have time."

Nangong Wu knew that Feng Wushang wouldn't reveal something if it was just hearsay.

"That medical book is a treasured copy from Medicine King Valley. My master said that every medicinal herb recorded in it is real. He said that the Seven-Colored Lotus is cold-resistant and likes cold, and generally grows on the top of snow-capped mountains or on cliffs."

It has no leaves and seven petals, each of which is a different color when in full bloom: deep red, pink, deep purple, light purple, white, yellow, and orange, hence the name Seven-Colored Lotus.

"I'll go find it!" Xiao Lin said without hesitation.

"Let's go together, but we'll talk about it later." Nangong Wu wanted to finish dealing with things in the capital before she could go looking for medicine with peace of mind.

Moreover, the place where these Seven-Colored Lotuses grow is too dangerous, and I don't want Xiao Lin to go on the risk alone.

"Okay, let's do it together." Xiao Lin smiled slightly.

Nangong Wu's fever reducer worked, and Nangong Xi fell asleep.

"Wu Shang, you're actually a disciple of the Medicine King of Medicine King Valley?" Nangong Wu recalled what he had just said.

"No," Feng Wushang said with a faint smile. "My master was once the Medicine King's apprentice."

"No wonder your medical skills are so good; it turns out you're a disciple of Medicine King Valley," Nangong Wu said in surprise.

Being able to serve as a disciple of the Medicine King is already quite an achievement.

After chatting for a while, Feng Wushang, seeing that the child was alright, took his leave.

"The babies are a month old now, and I want to paint portraits of them all," Xiao Lin said.

"Okay." Nangong Wu nodded.

She takes photos and videos of her three children every day, so she never thought about drawing any portraits of them.

But she discovered that this man was good at everything: he was skilled in martial arts, chess, and carving. Now he said he wanted to draw a portrait of the child. She really wanted to see what level of skill he could achieve.

Xiao Lin handed the two children to the wet nurse, walked to a desk, and first drew a picture for Nangong Yu.
