"So what do you mean, miss?" Lotus looked at Xia Zhixue with a pair of eyes full of aura.

"I suspect that this matter has nothing to do with Luo Licheng's guy."

"But what can we do for the prince now?"

Xia Zhixue sighed, even if they now knew that Luo Licheng was behind the ghost, they had no evidence to name that guy. Before Ouyang Huaiyu set off, Xia Zhixue sweated for him, although Hua Cheng brought only four words, but she still felt faintly uneasy for Ouyang Huaiyu in her heart. He didn't have seen Luo Licheng's methods, since Xia Chengdao said that Luo Licheng directly resisted Ouyang Huaiyu in the court, he felt a little faintly bad. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Huaiyu ran into trouble so soon.

"I'm not particularly sure if it's Luo Licheng, but now it's urgent to solve their current situation first. Lotus, go and get all my savings! ”

"Miss, what are you doing with that?" Lotus looked at Xia Zhixue with a puzzled expression, this savings lady saved up point by point, and she was usually reluctant to move. Why did you suddenly use it today?

"Don't ask, just take it."

Lotus had no choice but to take one of Xia Zhixue's hairpins and walked to Xia Zhixue's bed. The hairpin was hollowed out in the middle, and a small key was hidden in the middle. Xia Zhixue had already dug a hole under her bed, and no one else knew about it except Lotus and her. There was a heavy chest hidden under the bed. Lotus carefully opened the box, and the box was full of accumulated broken silver or silver obtained after pawning some of the jewelry that was usually rewarded. Scattered can be regarded as filling a whole box.

"Lotus, you go to the pawn shop and replace this broken silver with a silver ticket, just say that the third lady of the Xia family is in urgent need." The owner of the pawn shop gradually became familiar with Xia Zhixue because Xia Zhixue was a frequent customer. Lotus didn't dare to ask Miss why she did this, but Miss must have her reasons for doing this.

Lotus secretly put the broken silver into several cloth bags and slipped out of the waiting house. The silver is trivial, and if it is replaced by another pawn boss, the lotus will definitely be blown out of the door. But the boss didn't say a word, so he took a thick stack of silver tickets for the lotus. Lotus returned one of them to the boss, and Xia Zhixue must thank the boss for her explanation.

The boss accepted the silver ticket with a smile and said, "In the future, if you young lady have any useless hairpins, just bring them to us!" ”

Lotus handed a thick stack of silver tickets to Xia Zhixue, Xia Zhixue took out the lunch box that was placed in the corner at some point, and stuffed the silver tickets into various rice balls and pastries one by one.

"Tomorrow we will set off to find the prince."

The heart of the lotus flower jumped like a bird rushing out of the cage, but it was suddenly lost. "Miss, how can we explain to Master Hou?"

Xia Zhixue finally confirmed, closed the lid of the lunch box, and her face was full of confidence, "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures." "To deal with Xia Huaiqing, he will be dismissed in a few words, but for Ouyang Huaiyu's enemy, Xia Zhixue still doesn't have much bottom in his heart. But as long as you come to Ouyang Huaiyu's side, you can always come up with a way to solve it! Miao

Early the next morning, Xia Zhixue came to Xia Huaiqing's courtyard, took the jade pendant that Ouyang Huaiyu gave her, and said, "The emperor gave me a secret message last night. Let me go to the disaster relief area immediately. Please also ask your father's permission. ”

Xia Huaiqing's face was full of suspicion, "Why don't I know about the emperor's secret?" ”

"Then ask Father to see what this is." As he spoke, he handed Ouyang Huaiyu's jade pendant over.

Xia Huaiqing took the jade pendant and examined it carefully, lest she miss a detail. However, the small green snake engraved on the jade pendant symbolizes the dignity of the owner of the jade pendant. Except for the emperor's things, which can only be engraved with dragons with teeth and claws, the prince's is a snake. Other than that, no one else has this kind of thing.

But how could there be any secret revelations suddenly in the middle of the night? And even if something happens to the nineteenth prince, it should be Zhiqiu's turn to serve. But the emperor's mind is not his turn to guess. So Xia Huaiqing waved his hand, which was considered to allow Xia Zhixue's trip.

Xia Zhixue cheered in her heart, and she had to pretend to be calm on the surface, "The emperor said that this matter cannot be known to the third person, if someone in the house asks about me, it will be said that I made a mistake and was punished by my father to the ancestral hall of my hometown to worship the Buddha with peace of mind." ”

Xia Huaiqing didn't even raise his eyelids, "I know." "This girl is clearly threatening herself, and of course it is impossible for others to know the emperor's holy decree. What's more, if it weren't for the fact that he was the head of the family, he needed to know the whereabouts of his children, but I was afraid that Xia Zhixue wouldn't know where to slip away for a long time.

"That Zhixue has thanked my father here." After saying that, he saluted and turned to leave.

The carriage outside the house was prepared by Xia Zhixue last night for the lotus. Coming out of Xia Huaiqing's main hall, they ran directly to the carriage at the door with some luggage. The carriage did not choose the right path when Ouyang Huaiyu went. That's so striking.

They chose a remote path, which correspondingly avoided the noisy crowds while also choosing a bumpy road. The road was so bumpy that Xia Zhixue couldn't close his eyes and recuperate with peace of mind. Lotus sat outside the carriage at first, but was later called into the carriage by Xia Zhixue, saying that it was to not attract attention, but in fact, she also wanted Lotus to rest more.

It was almost dusk, and we finally arrived at our destination. Xia Zhixue took the cloak that had been prepared a long time ago and knocked on the door of Ouyang Huaiyu's mansion. Sure enough, even if he left the capital, the emperor was reluctant to let his younger brother live in a too simple house. The mansion is not too big, even a little smaller than the Xiahou Mansion, but the decoration in the mansion is really not inferior at all.

Xia Zhixue noticed that there were groups of wanderers near the mansion, walking in a hurry, fortunately, they also had a sheet on their bodies that didn't look very thin, presumably this must be the victims who suffered because of the locust plague.

Xia Zhixue has mixed feelings in her heart, natural disasters have always been inevitable, but the bitterness has always been these Li people. I only hope that she can help Ouyang Huaiyu well this time, and the two of them will help these victims through the difficulties together.

Xia Zhixue instructed Lotus to distribute all the uneaten dry food brought on the road to some refugees at the door. Some of the victims who were afraid of life were timid in their eyes, and they didn't dare to reach out to receive the food given by Xia Zhixue. Xia Zhixue stroked the broken hair in her ear, smiled and put the food into her mouth, "Don't worry, I won't hurt everyone." I am ......" Xia Zhixue just wanted to say that she was the third lady of Xiahou Mansion, but she suddenly stopped, she pretended to be a holy decree and sneaked out, if the emperor knew about it, she would definitely be beheaded.

"The food is fine, I vouch for the reputation of the Nineteenth Prince."
