In the afternoon of the same day after getting the account books and letters, I expected that once Jin Dingkang found that the account books were lost, he would definitely send someone to find them desperately.

Therefore, a group of several people got on the carriage and quickly went to the direction of Hangzhou, so that they could not only be surprised, but also get out of the Shengzhou boundary as soon as possible.

Bai Yu also flew back to the team at some point, staying quietly beside Lin Qingzhi.

The weather seemed to be happy that they had gotten their books, and the sun shone warmly, shining on the white earth, shining with colorful ice crystals.

Except for a short pause when they needed supplies, the rest of the time they were on the road, and they didn't leave the Shengzhou boundary until night, and stopped at a small town near Hangzhou, and after dinner, everyone washed up and rested, and turned off the lights early.

Although Lin Qingzhi felt tired, she didn't feel sleepy at all, and along the way, she was thinking about what to do next, and what method to use to find out the murderer of her Lin family.

There is heaven, there is Suzhou and Hangzhou, since Emperor Yang of Sui ordered people to dig through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Hangzhou's trade status is even more crucial, see the beautiful scenery of the West Lake in winter, see the broken bridge and the remnant snow wrapped in silver, at this time last year, Lin Qingji ran to Hangzhou to see the broken bridge and remnant snow, so that Lin Qingzhi was envious, but at this time, even a little news of his brother was gone, Lin Qingzhi's heart was sour and heavy, and he couldn't bear to see Jing Siren, and everyone packed their bags early the next morning, passed through Hangzhou and went directly to Suzhou.

Just when a few people arrived in Suzhou, a flying pigeon passed to Luoyang, and Mrs. Xun, who lived in the palace, had already known about the loss of the account book, but it was only two days that so many changes had happened, and she only felt anxious.

Hearing that people from outside the palace brought a letter in, it turned out that the income from the copper mining presided over by the brother-in-law in the past few years, as well as the records of the transactions, were actually stolen, Mrs. Xun couldn't figure out why there was nothing to do for so many years, and the brother-in-law should have been careful enough, why did it still leak out.

Mrs. Xun closed her eyes and stroked her aching forehead, only to feel troubled in her heart, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind, and she opened her eyes to reveal a sharp light, could it be ...... Is it the Queen's ghost? Yes, it must be her, the emperor has only spoiled himself in the past two years, the queen must be unpleasant, and wants to get rid of the grasp and then quickly, Mrs. Xun got up and picked up the early-blooming red plum in the bottle, and pulled out the red flowers piece by piece, and after a while, only a broken light rod remained, and she threw away the flowers and branches in her hand.

Lingzhu, the palace maid on the side, asked tentatively: "Niangniang guessed who is not good for us?" ”

"Hmph, who can't tolerate this palace in their eyes now, isn't it obvious?" There was a touch of coldness and coolness in Mrs. Xun's voice.

"Mother mean, Queen? But how did she know about us? Lingzhu looked at Mrs. Xun's face carefully and asked hesitantly.

"Since she wants to start, then this palace will give her a first strike! is already old, and she still wants to monopolize the emperor, does she really not know that the emperor has long been suspicious of the difficult birth of the first queen? I really thought that I could hide from the sky and cross the sea, but I didn't know that the geese left traces, and there were always traces to be found. Mrs. Xun's voice and eyes were not as gentle as usual, as if she had changed into a different person.

"That's it, Niangniang has endured it for so many years, she should have raised her eyebrows a long time ago, and that thing, the slave maid doesn't understand that you Ang Angniang already knew, why she has endured it until now and didn't say it." Lingzhu has been with Mrs. Xun for more than ten years, and she has been oppressed by the queen for so many years, and she sees it in her eyes, so she naturally holds grievances for her master.

"Lingzhu, in this palace, not all the truth is believed, what others believe is the truth, whether it is true or not, others do not believe it, even if it is true, it is false." Mrs. Xun looked at the snow outside the window, looking a little lonely, and the lilac shiny fluff on her neck took advantage of her face to be more gentle and feminine.

"The slave is not smart, but the slave knows what the master has suffered over the years, but fortunately, now the bitterness is coming, and the fourth prince will soon be weakened, as long as he is crowned the prince, he can also fight for some face for the master, at least he can protect you." Lingzhu smoothed the wrinkled corners of Mrs. Xun's skirt with her hand and said.

"Heng'er, but he is a filial child, but I don't know if he can see through the mind of his mother who is planning for him." At the mention of her son, Mrs. Xun's eyes were full of coldness, and they were full of love.

"The slave doesn't understand why you've been planning for so many years, it's time to tell him, right?" Lingzhu just watched his master meditate day and night for His Royal Highness, but he didn't allow them to reveal half a point.

"When he celebrates his fifteenth birthday, this palace will tell him personally, and it's almost time for him to know." Mrs. Xun sighed and said slowly.

The further north you go, the heavier the snow falls, and this year's winter is also very cold, the snow is falling from the sky, and the snow on the ground is covered with another layer before it has time to melt, and the thicker and thicker snow makes it difficult for the carriage to move forward.

Lin Qingzhi showed a look of anxiety on her face, she could have traveled to Luoyang in three days, but now she actually walked to Xuzhou, and one more day of delay is equivalent to Jin Dingkang and Mrs. Xun having an extra chance of eliminating evidence, but looking at the white snow, there is nothing to do.

Two days later, in the afternoon, everyone finally arrived in Luoyang, looking at the still prosperous Luoyang City, Lin Qingzhi only felt in a trance, just one year, but it was like a world away.

The carriage passed in front of the gate of the Lin Mansion, and the once glorious gate was now closed, without a trace of the past scenery, only a few ragged beggars sat in front of the gate tower in many waves of severe cold wind and snow.

The carriage walked through a long street, turned two corners, and finally stopped in front of a villa near the center of the city, the coachman went to buckle the door, and after Murong Qing dismounted, Fulin Qingzhi got off the car and walked to the courtyard.

It turns out that this is a house of the Murong family in the capital, Murong Qing will live here every time he comes to Kyoto, and he walks into the triple courtyard before he arrives at the main hall, usually this house has been empty, but the scenery is not bad, although the outside does not look big, the courtyard does have a Jiangnan architectural style, small and chic, poetic and elegant everywhere.

At this time, Lin Qingzhi was already almost three months pregnant, and her belly was slightly protruding, but because she was dressed thickly in winter, she didn't pay attention to ordinary people who couldn't see it at all, and the housekeeper was a little surprised when she saw Lin Qingzhi, after all, this young master had never brought a woman back, but she was a little disappointed when she saw that face that could only be regarded as delicate, thinking that she was a little unworthy of her young master with such a posture, Lin Qingzhi saw these in her eyes, but she didn't show any emotion.

If it was said that when she was the eldest lady of the Lin Mansion and the lord of Zhaoning before, she occasionally couldn't control her expression and emotions, but now that she has experienced so many things, she has long been accustomed to being happy and angry.
