A year later, in an unknown small county town in the south of the Yangtze River.

The meandering river divides the town into east and west, and the residents' houses are also built along the river, all of which are whitewashed walls and tiles, and the height is staggered, although it is not as elegant as the buildings in the north, but there is a tactful and elegant water town style that makes people intoxicated.

Walking along the river to the south, the terrain gradually opens up, and the streets become wider, and the shops on both sides are lined up, and the sound of bargaining comes and goes, and it looks like a prosperous scene.

The streets are lined with narrow alleys that connect the corners of the town. In one of the alleys, there lived a family, which looked not much different from the rest of the town, with white walls and tiles, and cornices and corners.

In the main room of the courtyard, a young woman was holding an infant child and sobbing quietly, and several people were kneeling on the ground begging for something.

"Madam, you can't go, Qingcheng Mountain is far away, how can you go as a weak woman, not to mention that the little master is only ......"

The young woman looked up, her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

"I've waited too long to wait any longer. Although her eyes were filled with tears, her eyes were full of determination and unquestionability.

This young woman holding the child is Saitama, and kneeling on the ground are several of her maids and Qiushuang, who has become an official wife.

Saitama has been living here for more than a year. She left the capital that year and arrived in Shandong smoothly under the escort of Gai Fei. King Fu and Princess Fu are naturally hospitable, but at the same time, they also hope that Saitama can stay in Shandong. Although Saitama knew that King Fu and Li Yi had a great friendship, she was bound to become a constraint to Li Yi here, so she also politely declined, just stayed in Shandong for a few days, and insisted on continuing to go south.

After months of tossing and turning, he finally arrived in Yiyang, where Zhang Bao worked. Zhang Bao and Qiushuang had already received the news from Li Yi's faction, and they had already prepared everything and waited for Saitama's arrival. However, Saitama was pregnant, and she was tired from running around on the road, and she had several fetal gases and stopped walking. When she arrived in Yiyang, Qiushuang saw Saitama's haggard face and emaciated figure, and first hugged Saitama and cried, feeling very distressed.

Autumn frost is already the mother of two children, but after Saitama came, she took care of Saitama wholeheartedly, and even her two children were all taken care of by the nurse, changing her tricks every day to supplement Saitama. Zhang Bao thanked Li Yi and his wife for their kindness, and was not dissatisfied when he saw his wife like this.

Under Qiushuang's careful care, Saitama successfully gave birth to a white and chubby son, named Brother An, and Saitama insisted on waiting for Li Yi to give the child a big name.

Later, news came from the capital that the scholar Wang was imprisoned by the emperor because of his secret association with Great Xia. The evidence presented by Li Yi, the prince of Qi, is very conclusive, not only physical evidence but also human evidence. Li Yi sent people to pretend to be Daxia merchants to trade with Wang Daxue for things that included food, daily necessities, and a lot of ordnance. When the emperor heard this, he was furious and immediately ordered that the scholar Wang be put in prison.

However, when the people in the palace were panicking, things took a turn for the worse, and Wang Boyuan, the son of Wang Daxue, suddenly returned to the capital from Shandong and met the emperor overnight, which is said to have presented some evidence of King Fu's attempt to rebel in Shandong, and alluded to the fact that Li Yi, the prince of Qi, had been secretly dealing with King Fu and might have participated in the rebellion.

Early the next morning, the emperor sent troops to surround the mansion of the Duke of Qi, put Li Yi in prison, and issued an order to summon King Fu to Beijing to meet him. When the news reached Shandong, King Fu was indeed recruiting troops and preparing for an incident, of course he would not listen to the emperor's words and obediently enter Beijing at this time, but secretly sent a group of dead soldiers into Beijing, just in case it could come in handy.

But the emperor's will did anger King Fu, and he also took this opportunity to play the banner of crusading against the faint king, listing the emperor's ten major crimes, including killing his father and seizing the throne, and defiling the harem made the world stunned.

The news reached the capital, and the embarrassed and angry emperor issued an order to crusade against King Fu. At this time, the emperor was very angry with Wang Daxue and Li Yi who were in prison. Scholar Wang has always been his most trusted courtier, but he has done things behind his back to communicate with foreign countries. And Li Yi, as the initiator, also made him look unpleasant, not to mention that as soon as King Fu's matter came out, he had the urge to execute these two people.

Li Yi grew up in Beijing since he was a child, and has a close relationship with those clansmen in Beijing, the eldest princess, King Rong, Princess Chaoyang, etc. At this time, seeing him in trouble, of course, he did his best to help and advised the emperor one after another. Princess Chaoyang and the emperor are siblings, and they persuaded the emperor that at this time, it was the time to use the Duke of Qi to lead the army to crusade, and I am afraid that the execution of Li Yi would lose the hearts of the people. The evidence presented by Wang Boyuan did not prove that Li Yi was related to King Fu's rebellion, so the emperor finally decided to take away Li Yi's title as the prince of Qi and send him to Qingcheng. demoted the Duke of Qi to Hou.

As for the scholar Wang, because the evidence of fornication in Daxia was conclusive, he could not deny it, so he was beheaded and his family property was confiscated. However, Wang Boyuan was praised by the emperor for his meritorious work in reporting King Fu's rebellion, not only was he not demoted, but he was also slightly promoted by one level. There were many followers of the royal scholars, but the emperor knew that in this eventful season, a thorough investigation would inevitably cause turmoil in the court, so he did not pursue it for the time being.

When he took over the government, he found that the treasury was empty, there was a shortage of soldiers and major generals, everything was restricted, and there was no place to agree, so he hated Li Yi for bringing down Wang Daxue for a while, and let himself fall into such a predicament, and on the other hand, he scolded Wang Daxue for being greedy and insufficient, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. The harem is even more dangerous for everyone, for fear that when the emperor is in a bad mood, he will cause death.

Wang Boyuan was also not satisfied, he tried his best to find evidence of King Fu, but he failed to save his father's life, and he was also angry with the emperor.

When Li Yi was sent to prison, it was when Saitama was about to give birth, and Zhang Bao, Qiushuang and others kept it a secret from Saitama.

Saitama knew in her heart how difficult it was for Li Yi, but she promised Li Yi that no matter what happened, she would give birth to a child well, so she kept holding back her worries until she gave birth to a child.

Originally, she planned to get up and go to Qingcheng after the confinement, but because she consumed too much vitality during childbirth, she lay in bed for more than two months.

As soon as her strength recovered, she brought Zhang Bao and Qiushuang to ask about Li Yi's situation. Qiushuang and the others were forced to ask, but they had to tell Saitama that Li Yi had been sent to Qingcheng. Saitama's tears fell at that time, but at the same time, he was determined to go to Qingcheng to find Li Yi. Autumn frost and others tried hard to dissuade her, but Saitama still didn't change her mind.
