After seeing the Empress Dowager Julie's car leave, Li Zijun's task as a 'red face' was completely over, and he immediately submitted a request to Prime Minister Alec to return to the territory to visit relatives. This was in the agreement between the two, Li Zijun only advanced this time a little, and Prime Minister Alec did not have any reason to object, he not only readily agreed to Li Zijun's request, but also authorized Winnie to return to the Seine Peninsula with Li Zijun.

Li Zijun didn't expect Prime Minister Alec to be so tolerant of himself, and while he was pleasantly surprised, he also diluted some of the sorrow in his heart.

In the blink of an eye, it had been nearly two years since Li Zijun left his territory, and he couldn't help but get a little nervous as the convoy continued to approach the city of Zarat.

Although this period of time has been the good news of the vigorous development of the Seine Peninsula, Li Zijun, who has been accustomed to deception and concealment, still has some worries. He worries that there is a huge gap between what he sees and what he actually sees!

Not long after walking with this worry, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased, and many wine shops and restaurants that Li Zijun had not seen before also appeared on the roadside.

"Ed, why doesn't this place seem to be the same as you said?" asked Winnie, poking her head out of the carriage and looking around.

"I haven't been back for a long time, and it wasn't so lively here before I left!" Li Zijun looked at the bustling crowd around him, and his eyes were also full of questions.

"Why don't we go to the side of the road for a drink and ask what the hell is going on?" Vinnie had never eaten in a place like this, and she was curious about everything around her.

"Okay, I also want to see how much Weishenme has changed here!" Li Zijun nodded and turned over and dismounted, helping Winnie and Catherine out of the carriage.

There are some small restaurants on the roadside, but fortunately, Li Zijun only brought a dozen guards with him this time, and they randomly picked a cleaner restaurant and walked in.

It's a small restaurant, with only six or seven tables, but it's very clean. Although it is not yet a meal at the moment, there are already three or four tables full of people in the restaurant.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, a neatly dressed runner greeted them and politely placed them all down.

The food here was very simple, and Li Zijun didn't think too much about asking for it, and after getting the consent of the others, he ordered a few meals casually.

"This little brother, please wait!" Li Zijun shouted to stop the running hall that was about to leave.

"This young master, don't call me that, if you want, you can just call me 'Otis'. This running hall had already seen Li Zijun's noble status, and he smiled and bent over and said.

"I came here two years ago, and it doesn't seem to be so lively here, what is going on here?" Li Zijun asked with some curiosity.

"The Seine Peninsula has changed dramatically in the past two years, where the tax burden has dropped and the service has been getting better and better. Before, it was just a distribution center for goods in the northern region, but now, you can buy the specialties and goods of any empire in the Youlan Continent there, and the price is reasonable!"

"In the past few years, due to our wars with the Fengqi Empire and the Monlin Empire, it seems that our relations with the Turk-Hungarian Empire are not very good, which also makes their goods there very scarce, but in the Seine Peninsula you can buy all the goods you need. As a result, almost all the merchants of the Seine Peninsula have flocked here, and our road has become more and more lively!" he said enthusiastically as he stood beside Li Zijun.

"How did they get goods from other countries here?" Li Zijun asked with a puzzled face.

"I heard that the Seine Peninsula has bought several large ships in the Ziqing Empire, and they are using sea transportation to transport the goods of Fengqi and Aojin to us. As for Meng Lin, I don't know!" said Ran Tang as he looked around.

Li Zijun smiled and nodded to Diego, who secretly stuffed two copper coins into Runtang's hand.

"I heard that the lord of Edlaide on the Seine Peninsula and the city guard of Wimbledon are brothers, and they secretly smuggled goods from the other side of the desert, and they all say that the northern part of the Dongyu Empire is now their brother!" Ran Tang whispered in Li Zijun's ear.

Sending the running hall away, Winnie looked at Li Zijun and showed a delicate smile.

"It turns out that in the northern part of the empire, you and Big Brother Bob have the final say!"

"This matter is big or small, don't hurt me!" Li Zijun couldn't help but smile bitterly when he looked at Winnie.

"It's okay if you want me not to say it, but you must take me on the boat to have fun!"

Although Li Zijun had not seen these big ships yet, he still agreed to her request under the 'threat' of Winnie.

Of course, there was nothing to say in such a restaurant, so they just took a casual bite and then continued to set off for the city of Zarat.

As they got closer to the city of Salat, there were more and more pedestrians on the road, most of them pulling cartloads of goods, in and out, each with a happy smile on their faces, and they clearly anticipated the harvest ahead.

Not long after walking forward again, Li Zijun smiled bitterly, turned over and dismounted, helped Winnie and Catherine from the carriage, led them forward quickly, and stood respectfully next to an ordinary carriage.

"Stinky boy, why don't you say hello in advance when you go home, do you want to give your eldest sister a surprise attack?" Opening the car door, Caroline stepped down from the carriage and glared at Li Zijun and asked.

"Eldest sister, this time I see that you have to rush back to the capital, I don't want to make too much noise. He looked at Caroline and said embarrassedly.

"Why, do you think that after being promoted to duke, we need to line up to greet us?"

"Of course not, you and your brother-in-law came to pick me up in person, which is to give you a big face!" Li Zijun said as he pulled Winnie and Catherine to greet the eldest brother-in-law and Jenny behind Caroline.

"This is Miss Winnie?!" Caroline looked happy at the sight of Winnie.

"For the sake of Winnie and Catherine, spare you for the time being!" Caroline glanced at Li Zijun and pulled Winnie and Catherine into her carriage.

"Why didn't the third sister come?" Li Zijun never saw Di Liya, and he pulled Jenny and asked with some curiosity.

"You'll know when you get back to the city, but don't mention it in front of your eldest sister!" Jenny whispered.

Li Zijun was full of suspicion, but this place was not too much to ask, so he got on his horse and followed Caroline's carriage into the city of Salat.

As soon as he entered the city, Li Zijun felt the great changes in Sarat City. Although the flow of people in the city has increased several times, the order is much better than before he left. Seeing the residents in his territory one by one, Li Zijun couldn't help but have a huge sense of happiness in his heart!

"Eldest sister, Sarat City has changed too much in the past two years! It's really hard for you!" As soon as he sat down in the living room of the mansion, Li Zijun couldn't help but pull Caroline and sighed.

"Sisters show you the house, are you satisfied?" Caroline asked with a contemptuous look at Li Zijun.

"Satisfied, I'm so satisfied!" Li Zijun heard Caroline's words were not good, and hurriedly nodded and smiled.

"But we are not satisfied!, you are out there alone, leaving me and Jenny at home, and we are so busy that we are almost on the ground!" said Caroline, glaring at Li Zijun, who seemed to have forgotten to mention his third sister, Delia.

"How can I be happy and happy? For more than a year, I have been like a rabbit, being chased by others from behind, and I almost can't come back!"

"Then your second sister and Uncle Bilbom are going to save you, why don't you come back quickly? If it weren't for your bullshit, Uncle Bilbom would have said!" Caroline said, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she couldn't say any more.

Hearing Caroline say this, Li Zijun was shocked, the smile on his face immediately stiffened, and his tears immediately flowed uncontrollably.

"It's all my fault, if it weren't for my lack of greed, Uncle Bilbo wouldn't have done it for me!" Li Zijun knelt down in front of Caroline with a 'poof'.

"Sister, punish me!"

Looking at Li Zijun who was kneeling on the ground, Caroline sighed deeply, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and reached out to help Li Zijun up from the ground.

"My sister can understand why you did this, but I want to remind you to never forget Bradley as an enemy!" Caroline said murderously.

"Eldest sister, don't worry, sooner or later, I will carry Bradley's head to honor Uncle Bilbohm!" Li Zijun swore again as he looked in the direction of the Menglin Empire.

"I'm going to come back this time to build a tomb for Uncle Bilbom and hold a funeral for him as a nephew!"

"Uncle Bilbom has always taken our sister and brother like a nephew, and he treats you as his own son, even if you don't say it, my sister will ask you to do it!" Caroline nodded in agreement with Li Zijun's idea.

"Not only Uncle Bilbom, but you also have to give Victoria and Barbara an explanation, we must not be that kind of ruthless people!"

Li Zijun heard Caroline's words and nodded slightly.

"I will give them a place and bury their ashes in the name of my wife!"

"That's fine! We'll talk about the rest after dinner! Winnie and Catherine should have been tired from the journey, so you settled them down and went to rest for yourself. I'll send someone to call you at supper!" Caroline said a few more words, and then walked out of the room with her husband.

Jenny looked at Li Zijun, Anna, Catherine, and Winnie and smiled slightly, and she also turned to leave.

"Anna, what's wrong with the third sister, she didn't show up today?" Li Zijun saw that there were only four of them left, so he pulled Anna and asked.

"I don't know much about this matter, when I accompanied the second sister back to Sarat City, the third sister was no longer here. The second sister originally wanted to take me to the funeral, but I didn't know that Weishenme's matter was later over. When I mentioned the third sister to the second sister again, she always changed the topic, and no one in the whole house mentioned the third sister again!"

"Later, I overheard the conversation between the eldest sister and the second sister, and they seemed to say that the third sister was put under house arrest!"

"What did the third sister do to provoke the eldest sister to treat her like this?" Li Zijun asked puzzled as he looked at Anna.

"I only hear them say a few words once in a while, but I don't hear them at all, because of Weishenme. ”

"It seems that I only need to ask the second sister about this matter, so that I can know the details. You all go to rest first, and I'll go to see the second sister alone. ”

When the three of them heard Li Zijun say this, they couldn't insist on anything, and they left together.

Li Zijun sat down again and thought about it, he really didn't have any clue, and finally got up and walked towards Jenny's room.

Li Zijun gently knocked on Jenny's door, but saw her nervous face.

"Second sister, you can't hide someone in the room, right?" Li Zijun ignored Jenny's blocking eyes and walked into her room playfully.

Before Li Zijun could stand still in the room, he saw his eldest sister Caroline sitting directly opposite.

"You're a duke now, how can you talk to your sister so much, I know you're close to Jenny, but you can't joke about it!" Caroline reprimanded with a serious face.

Hearing Caroline's words, Li Zijun also remembered that Jenny was still a widow at the moment, and he turned his head to look at Jenny with an embarrassed face.

"Second sister, I'm sorry!"

"Okay, you sit down first, the eldest sister is looking for you to have something!" Jenny glanced at Li Zijun and pointed to the seat opposite Caroline for him to sit down.

"Eldest sister, are you looking for me?"

"Don't ask knowingly, you left three beauties to come to your second sister, it's definitely not to catch up with the past, right?!"

Li Zijun smirked and didn't explain too much.

"You're trying to ask Jenny about Delia, I guess?"

"I'll just tell my second sister that the smartest thing in our family is the eldest sister, and I can't hide anything from her eyes!" Li Zijun said with a wink at Jenny.

"Don't be busy slapping horses, if you know where your third sister is at the moment, I'm afraid you won't be so relaxed!"

"Where did you let my third sister go?"

"Your third sister has been put under house arrest by me, and Silas has been beheaded by me, I'm afraid you're going to have to find a new lord for Lotta City!" Caroline said coldly.

"You looked at the third brother-in-law's head?"

"That brute isn't your brother-in-law, you don't have to call him that anymore!"

"Weishenme?"

"Silas secretly smuggled weapons from the Seine Peninsula a long time ago, although my eldest sister and I also knew about it, but looking at Delia's face, we only sent someone to warn him a few times, and did not take any specific action! ”

"Since these weapons have all been handed over to the dwarven tribe for production now, there is a coalition guard on the periphery, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach. Silas used his identity to enter the production workshop of the dwarven tribe many times. Jenny explained to Li Zijun in place of Caroline.

"Zuihou Bingham found out that this brute who was eating inside and out had begun to secretly draw drawings of accessories! I wanted to give him another chance and sent for him to hand over the drawings. I never thought that your third sister would actually stand on his side at this time, not only helping him secretly copy a drawing, deceiving me by destroying a drawing, but also personally helping him transport the drawings outside!" Caroline said angrily.

"Since Silas wants to test whether our steel knife on the Seine Peninsula is sharp, I can only fulfill him!"

"Then I personally searched for the drawings on Delia's body, and I immediately ordered her to be placed under house arrest!"

"Eldest sister, I think the third sister was also fascinated by Silas for a while, and was encouraged by Silas. Since you have already killed Silas, don't embarrass the third sister anymore, let's let her out!" Li Zijun didn't expect such an inside story, he sighed and pleaded for the third sister Delia.

"I'm just asking your third sister to sober up, and when she thinks everything through, I will naturally let her out. I just hope she doesn't hold a grudge against me!" Caroline also understood that her idea was almost impossible, and she couldn't help but sigh.

"Even if this matter is over for the time being, you don't want to intercede for Delia anymore. I found your second sister today, mainly because I have another thing to tell you!" said Caroline's face was unusually solemn.

"You put your Divine Consciousness into your spatial ring, there's an unusually heavy box in the corner where the books are piled up, you take it out!"

Li Zijun searched for a while in the space ring before taking out the small box, which was only the size of a palm.

I don't know what material this gray-black box is made of, it looks inconspicuous, but it is unusually heavy, Li Zijun didn't know why, and handed the box to Caroline's hand.

"Do you see the three fingerprints on the box? All three of us put our index fingers in the fingerprints. There will be a little stinging for a while, but don't dodge it. Caroline pointed to the box and said solemnly to Li Zijun and Jenny.

They looked at Caroline's cautious appearance, nodded in unison, and after receiving her signal, they both put their index fingers in their fingerprints.

Almost at the same time as the three of them's fingers entered the fingerprints, Li Zijun felt a small burr in the fingerprint suddenly stand up, and if it wasn't for Caroline's reminder, he would definitely be able to dodge the small burr before he stabbed himself. But now, he could only resist the urge to dodge.

After a slight tingling, Li Zijun felt a text suddenly appear in his mind. He didn't have time to 'see' what the text was, still paying attention to Caroline's gaze, waiting for her next instructions.

"Ed, do you have an extra piece of writing in your head?" asked Caroline, looking nervous.

Li Zijun didn't know what Caroline meant, but he nodded hurriedly.

"We can let go!" Caroline seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief, and took her finger from her fingerprints.

"What are those words?" asked Li Zijun as he looked at his two sisters in confusion.

"Words, why don't I have anything in my head, is there something wrong with me here?" Jenny asked with some concern when she heard Li Zijun and Caroline repeatedly mention words.

"The text in this box can only be 'read' by the men of the Li family, we just play a role in opening this box! You should not be able to 'see' anything in the first place, there is no problem with this!"

"Ed, this text is very important, you just finish reading it here, and then tell me your decision!" Although Caroline said calmly, Li Zijun clearly felt that she was trembling all over.

Li Zijun never thought that the strong Caroline would show his weak side, he couldn't help but be full of curiosity about that text, and hurriedly sat down to 'read' carefully!

"Ed, when you can read this text, it proves that Caroline is sure that you have great strength!

"From what I know of Virgil, he will give you great convenience and help, and will even give you more direct and obvious hints. You should have already doubted this, don't doubt it, child, you are indeed his son, but you are indeed a member of the Li family!"

"All the offspring born to the children of the Li family will be given the surname 'Li'! And your mother is also a member of the Li family!" Li Zijun had such doubts about himself, and he was not too surprised to see that he was the son of Virgil Bixia. It's just that Li Zijun never thought that his mother would be the same descendant of the Li family as his titular 'father', and he couldn't help but be a little nervous.

Caroline, the only one who knew the truth, saw Li Zijun suddenly clench her fists, and her cold sweat couldn't stop flowing.

"Child, don't let those dirty thoughts fill your brain, all of us are innocent!"

"This thing has been a ploy from the beginning!"

"If we want to restore the glory of the Li family, it is difficult to do it by our own efforts. Although the Dongyu Empire is chaotic, the overall situation has always been in the hands of the imperial family, and there are no special means, and the revival of the family is just an empty word. Zuihou, your grandfather has made an amazing decision to take advantage of cheating and arrange your mother to Virgil's side. ”

"When it is confirmed that your mother is pregnant, say goodbye to Fergil! In this way, Virgil will never forget your mother for the rest of his life, and in addition, he will apologize to you endlessly! He will definitely take care of you consciously or unconsciously, love you, and let you quickly acquire a strong ability to protect yourself. ”

"It's just that there must be a premise for this: that is, I must leave this shijie, which will also win you greater sympathy and care!"

"So, I single-handedly arranged that assassination! I used secret methods to train a group of dead soldiers, and their greatest role was to kill me at the right time! This sounds a bit unbelievable, but since you can see the words I left in the box, it proves that my Jihua has achieved initial success!"
