Chapter 1044 Secret Path

Two days later, the fire in the original Zhang family's mansion was completely extinguished, and the Wang mansion far away was covered with coke and dust, but the soldiers guarding outside did not leave, and still stood guard outside the mansion in shifts.

At night, Zhulan asked suspiciously: "Since the fire has been extinguished, why don't the soldiers outside the mansion leave?"

In the past two days, there has been a lot of discussion, all of which are speculations about why the original Zhang's mansion was guarded.

Zhou Shuren had already guessed in his heart, "I think what the emperor wants to find, it's better to find out if it's destroyed, isn't it? There's nothing blocking it now."

Zhulan thought of a possibility, "Did you say that the members of the Zhang clan were all wiped out?"

Zhou Shuren, "I don't know."

What Zhulan thought was just guessing, forget it, she still didn't want to, she might as well think about her sons, "Changzhi doesn't know where he went."

Zhou Shuren looked away from the book, "They traveled lightly, and it's already halfway already."

Zhulan, "I want to go back and have a look."

"If it's not dangerous in the future, let's go back and have a look."

As for the time to become an official, he should not be able to move around anymore.

Zhulan nodded, and then talked about the children at home. The two have been an old couple since they met. After so many years of worrying about the big family, even if they are young, they are getting old. The two are now living like an old couple. Most of the talk was about the kids.

In the mountain village in the northeast, at night, Chang Zhi and his party rushed to the mountain village and found a family. After the negotiation was concluded, the girl and mother-in-law cleaned up the house, and Chang Zhi helped the lady out of the carriage.

Chang Zhi said: "Be careful, the road is slippery."

Su Xuan looked at her feet by the light of the lantern, "I already left early, but my calculation was wrong. The snow on the road melted too fast, and there was snow everywhere. This road is really difficult."

Changzhi was also depressed, "It's almost half of the journey now, just bear with it and we'll be there."

Su Xuan entered the room with a hum. It was the first time she had traveled so much in such a big way. Although she was not coquettish, she couldn't stand it. Sitting on the mat, she felt a little listless.

At this time, a woman came in from outside the house, and the woman came in and said: "We are eating, and my mother-in-law asked me to ask, do you need mutton, which was newly killed today.

"

Su Xuan's listless eyes changed a bit, "Yes, we want as much mutton as we want."

Zhang Sanni rejoiced in her heart, "Okay, please follow me."

The mother-in-law followed with her purse, and the mother-in-law asked, "Is there some fresh wild vegetables? We all want it. Yes, I heard the crowing of chickens just now. Do you sell the chickens raised at home?"

Zhang Sanni paused, "I want to ask my mother-in-law."

Today's sheep were bitten by a wolf that ran down the mountain yesterday, and they were killed during the day because they could not keep them alive. Otherwise, the family would not have killed them. They planned to sell them in the county. It was getting late and they were going to go tomorrow. Here comes the guest.

An hour later, Su Xuan and the others ate dinner, stewed mutton and chicken soup, and their hungry stomachs were finally full.

Early the next morning, Su Xuan and the others were preparing to leave, and they bought some meat and food when they left.

Jiang Sheng came out first and saw the dolls standing under the eaves. The older one was pulling the younger one to watch curiously. He turned around with a smile and went into the house, where he got some snacks.

Changzhi followed, "Brother-in-law."

Jiang Sheng had already distributed the snacks to several children, and said with a smile: "Chang Zhi, I am a bit like Jiang Du and the others. This is the first time I have been away from them for so long."

Changzhi also missed his son and daughter, so he walked over cautiously, "Fourth son, the carriage is ready, we should set off."

Changzhi nodded, turned around to help his daughter-in-law into the carriage, and glanced back at the woman standing under the eaves, only thought the sight was familiar, but then he couldn't remember getting into the carriage.

Zhang Sanni was the girl who gave her some snacks, so she came out to thank her, but she didn't expect to meet someone she knew, Zhou Changzhi, the fourth son of the Zhou family. After so many years, she thought she had forgotten it, but she still remembered that she had never returned to her hometown. It's good to have children.

It's just a little dazed, it turned out to be the Zhou family, a team of carriages, there are eight or nine guards alone.

The boy took his mother's hand, "Mom, what are you thinking?"

Zhang Sanni smiled, "Mother is thinking, Dongzi will study hard in the future."

The boy nodded, "Yes."

In the capital, Zhulan went to Ninghou Mansion in a carriage, passing by the burnt mansion, the gate had been demolished long ago, there were still many soldiers standing guard outside the courtyard, and there were also many soldiers in the courtyard, they were divided into many teams to inspect the courtyard.

Zhulan arrived at Ninghou Mansion, and Rongchuan is here today.

Xuehan held her mother's arm, and said to Rong Chuan, "Go and do your work, I will accompany mother."

Rong Chuan greeted, "Mom, then I'll go get busy."

Zhulan waited for Rong Chuan to leave before asking her daughter, "What is Rong Chuan busy with today?"

Xuehan didn't hide it either, "Today Rong Chuan will go with the prince on business."

Xuehan signaled that the mothers-in-law and girls who followed behind her didn't need to follow, and after walking a little farther, she continued in a low voice: "Mother, I heard from father-in-law and Rong Chuan that the emperor wants to check the secret."

Zhulan looked sideways at her daughter, "Did you eavesdrop?"

Xuehan shook her head, "No, I was there when father-in-law was chatting with Rong Chuan, and they didn't avoid me, so I thought, father-in-law wants to use me to pass news to our family."

Zhulan wanted to let the emperor do such a thorough investigation, which obviously stimulated the emperor's nerves, so she patted her daughter's hand, "I see."

Xuehan continued: "Rong Chuan secretly told me that the crown prince has a map of the entire capital in his hand, and that the capital will be patrolled and searched by soldiers from the Beijing Guard Battalion in the past few days, and asked me to buy more food. The city will be closed."

The corner of Zhulan's mouth twitched, the emperor and the crown prince really trusted Rong Chuan, and they loved their son and brother, but Rong Chuan's heart was towards the Zhou family, and he secretly told Xue Han that he wanted the Zhou family to know that this is not a son-in-law, but a son-in-law. Son!

Xuehan continued: "Mom, you should also buy more food."

Zhu Lan shook her head, "No, you Ninghou Mansion can buy more, but Zhou's can't, it will cause a chain reaction."

She knew in advance that it was enough to know what she knew, and there was no need to do too much.

Xuehan thinks about it too, "It's good that mother knows."

"Don't worry, there is enough food at home."

Xuehan burst out laughing, she almost ignored that her mother likes to hoard things, so there is nothing to worry about when she thinks about it.

Zhulan continued: "And the capital can't be chaotic, the food supply will be guaranteed, so you don't have to worry too much."

Xuehan nodded, "Yes."

In the palace, Zhou Shuren and others came out of the government hall and met Lord Yao who entered the palace. Zhou Shuren looked at Yao Wenqi. Yao Wenqi already had some gray hair. After careful calculation, Yao Wenqi was not as old as him, and seemed to be a few years younger. Years old, yes, how old is Yao Zheyu.

But looking at it now, Yao Wenqi looks similar to him, this time, I don't know how the emperor will torment Yao Wenqi.

Li Zhao pushed Zhou Shuren wordlessly, "Let's go."
