Yun Ran’s delicate brows furrowed. “That’s indeed a possibility, but there’s another possibility. He hid his appearance himself, so not many people have seen his face.’
Bai Wan nodded in agreement with Yun Ran.
Instinctively, she hoped that Bai Xuan hadn’t been imprisoned somewhere and lost his freedom.
Yun Ran used her eldest uncle, Bai Ze, and her second uncle, Bai Qi, as references. She kept feeling that if her third uncle was alive, he should be an extraordinary figure.
“How about this? Let the secret guards of the 12 Divisions investigate first and see if there are anyonein the Northern Han Imperial City who likes to wear masks to meet people. He should be about the same age as Third Uncle. Their target range will be the Imperial Palace and the big families.”
Bai Qi suddenly said, “Wait, now that you mention it, I think of someone who fits the information you mentioned.”
Yun Ran and Bai Wan were stunned. They had yet to investigate?
Could it be that they had found him?
“Who?”
Bai Qi said, “The Imperial Preceptor of Northern Han, Xuanyi, wears a mask all year round. No one has seen his face. In terms of age, he seems to be similar to Third Brother.’
Bai Qi had met Xuanyi once, but he had also lost his memory at that time. How could he think in another direction?
“Xuanyi? Does his name also have the word ‘Xuan’ in it? What a coincidence.”
Yun Ran felt that since they the conditions were met, they would meet Xuanyi first!
That’s right. Their time was too tight now. There was no time to probe and investigate.
Yun Ran wanted MO Beiyuan to meet Xuanyi in the name of the East Continent’s Emperor.
She wanted to clarify things in person.
She told MO Beiyuan her thoughts, so he naturally would not object.
This was because he knew that Bai Xuan was a very important relative to the Bai family.
The Bai family, and even his little packrat, also wanted to find her.
“Tomorrow then. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the Imperial Preceptor’s Residence.”
The Imperial Preceptor of Northern Han, Xuanyi, usually did not appear in the palace. He only appeared when he encountered very important matters.
The Imperial Preceptor’s Residence was built on a mountain in the east of the Imperial City.
The people from the 12 Divisions quickly found out that Xuanyi was in the Imperial Preceptors Residence.
The next day, Yun Ran brought the two children, Bai Wan, Bai Qi, and the others to the Imperial Preceptor’s Residence.
In Northern Han, the Imperial Preceptor had a very high status. He was second only to the Empress of the Northern Han. For many important matters, the Imperial Preceptor would play the role of a decision-maker.
In addition, Xuanyi had indeed done a lot for the commoners over the years.
Therefore, Xuanyi was respected and loved by the people in the entire Northern Han. He was second only to the empress.
“Mom, where are we going today?”
“Go find your granduncle.”
Yun Ran rubbed her little packrat’s furry head. The rabbit fur hat on her head was really cute and soft.
“Go look for Third Granduncle! Alright! Sweetcake loves Third Granduncle the most!”
Bai Qi teased her from the side. “Sweetcake said that you like Second
Granduncle. You even gave me so many small gifts!”
The little packrat did not panic at all. She blinked her big black eyes and said in a childish voice, “Sweetcake likes Second Granduncle too. I like all of them.
First Granduncle, Second Granduncle, Third Granduncle, I like all of them! But Third Granduncle is alone outside. He’s very pitiful, so Sweetcake has to take good care of him..”
