Li Lan went back, and Mu Li felt that he was the only one left in the house. Mu Li didn't know why he fell asleep, he always dreamed of Chu Lingyi in his dreams, and he didn't know when Chu Lingyi would come back. In the past, acting with Chu Lingyi could help a little, Mu Li suddenly woke up from his dream.

"Do you know who the prince brought with him?" Liuyun will definitely follow, but I don't know if he will bring more people in case of accidents.

Now Xiaohong is by Mu Li's side day and night, if Mu Li has any needs, Xiaohong should do it as soon as possible and not let Mu Li be alone.

"If you go back to the princess, you will only see Liuyun alone."

One person? Chu Lingyi is a good person, but he is a little proud. There have been similar things before, and Mu Li repeatedly reminded him to bring more people once he went out, but he always didn't listen. Now that Mu Li has a child, he doesn't dare to be impulsive, so as not to hold Chu Lingyi back.

I only listened to it once, and said that he was going to Tuli Village, but Mu Li didn't know where he was at all, and even what Chu Lingyi was going for, Mu Li didn't know very well.

Mu Li was also idle, thinking that it would be better to go to Chu Lingyi's study to look through his folds, maybe he could know where he went and what happened.

Mu Li never inquired about Chu Lingyi's affairs, but this time he suddenly felt panicked. There were a bunch of folds on the table, and Mu Li didn't know where to start.

"Princess, you better go and rest, don't burn your eyes." Xiaohong said that she bought another oil lamp for Mu Li.

When Mu Li reached out to get another fold, his hand touched the book on the side, and a hidden fold fell out of the book.

What was it that made Chu Lingyi hide it from Mu Li like this, and deliberately hid it in the book. Mu Li opened it and saw that it was Chu Lingyi who was about to play the emperor's excerpt, but he had only written half of it and had not finished it.

It is clearly written that Chu Lingyi found that many people can afford to buy charcoal, it stands to reason that only rich people can afford this kind of high-consumption thing, how can ordinary people consume it, and I don't know where the source of this batch of charcoal is?

Mu Li also felt very weird, ordinary people had no other way than to make a fire to keep warm, and they would not be able to buy something like charcoal.

Coal mining is not an easy task, and it is all manual. The amount of ore mined is not much, except in the palace. Only large families can afford to use it.

"Have you ever heard that the people are buying charcoal?" Mu Li hasn't been out for a long time, yes, I don't know much about things outside. It's Xiaohong, Mu Li wants to eat and buy something, and she buys it.

"I've heard about it."

Xiaohong is in a hurry every time he goes out of the house, and he never asks about things on the street, he just listens to them.

The charcoal fire involved the government and the people, and Mu thought that Chu Lingyi would be in danger if he went.

"In this case, you go and invite Xue Ping." Except for Xue Ping, Mu Li didn't know who to ask for help.

The sky was about to dawn, Mu Li was still so worried, Xiaohong on the side anxiously asked Mu Li to rest. But Mu Li just didn't want to, the matter was not explained well, and this heart has been hanging.

"Princess, it's better to wait for dawn to talk about it, I'm afraid Xue Ping is also resting at this time."

Mu Li looked at the sky outside the window, and then remembered that he hurriedly went to Chu Lingyi's study because he woke up in a dream and looked through his folds. It's already this hour, and it's really not appropriate to go to Xue Ping, so let's wait for dawn to trouble him.

Mu Li was completely sleepy, and sat in Chu Lingyi's study, praying that Chu Lingyi could return home as soon as possible.

Chu Lingyi didn't sleep all night, he took advantage of the fact that everyone was asleep, he groped the surrounding environment, and found that there was no exit here at all. How did the former escape?

"Get up quickly, it's dawn." The overseer came in with a whip, called everyone to get up, and handed out a bowl of porridge to everyone.

I'm afraid this is a joke, they are all people who do manual work, and they don't give meat to eat, but now they only give a bowl of thin porridge. A bowl of thin porridge only warmed the stomach, but the stomach didn't arrive at all.

After a night, Liuyun's wounds were scabbed, but as soon as he worked, the wound was torn open again, and the kind of heart-piercing pain Liuyun could only grit his teeth.

The difference today is that Chu Lingyi and Liuyun are asked to go outside and move the crushed coal mines piled up outside to other places.

This was good news for Chu Lingyi, he could take this opportunity to see how the guards outside were.

A pile of crushed cinders was piled up there, and Chu Lingyi and Liuyun had to finish moving it. In the cold wind, the two of them wore thin clothes, and they could only rely on non-stop labor to warm their bodies.

Liuyun's wounds were torn, clinging to his clothes, and blood seeped outside. Chu Lingyi asked him to go aside first to rest for a while and clean up the wound.

"Come, sit down, I'll do the work."

Anyway, as long as the pair of crushed cinders is transported today, Liuyun is now like this, and if he doesn't deal with it, he is afraid that it will become inflamed and fester.

"You, what are you sitting there for, you want to be whipped?"

Liuyun didn't want to implicate Chu Lingyi, even if he was whipped, how could he let the prince be beaten too. "I'll get up now." Liuyun landed on the ground with his hands on his back, his eyes full of anger.

"You see his wounds are bleeding, take care of it a little and do it." Chu Lingyi took out the silver from his waist and secretly stuffed it into the overseer's hand, wanting him to be a little more tolerant.

But the overseer was a greedy man, and a little silver alone could not feed his belly. Weighing the silver taels in his hand, he grabbed Chu Lingyi's collar, stretched out one hand to Chu Lingyi's waist, and took all of Chu Lingyi's silver.

"You kid can, you dare to hide silver. Say, is there anything left? ”

Chu Lingyi let the overseer take all the silver on his body, and where else was the silver. So the overseer shifted the target to Liuyun's body, but fortunately, Chu Lingyi was smart and hid all Liuyun's silver in the mine.

The overseer searched Liuyun's body and didn't find a penny. "That's it, deal with it quickly, if you don't finish this work today, don't sleep for both of you."

"Thank you, thank you."

When did Chu Lingyi ever be so humble, if it weren't for the fact that he was in the hands of others now, he would definitely beat the overseer to the ground, so that he couldn't even shout for help.

Chu Lingyi put down the tools in his hand and hurriedly treated Liuyun's wounds. Although they were all small wounds, they were not treated, they were all attached to their clothes, and they were torn off with a piece of flesh when they were pulled.

Under such conditions, Chu Lingyi could only simply clean up Liuyun, and he could only wait for it to go out before taking medicine. "How's it going, does it hurt?"

Liuyun didn't dare to shout, he was afraid of attracting other overseers, and then he and the prince would die. Liuyun bit his lip desperately, and his lip bit blood.
