As soon as the sun came out and the snow melted, the lives of the people would slowly get better.
When they arrived at the front hall, Wang Xuan Ling and Shen Qin had already woken up and were waiting for them. Seeing them come, they immediately stood up and prepared to bow, but were stopped by Yan Yuan.
"You don't have to be so formal outside."
The couple sat down at the table, and because Yan Yuan and Yue Shan still had not come down, Wang Xuan Ling and Yue Shan did not take the initiative to eat breakfast, so when they were seated, Wang Xuan Ling called for the waiter to order.
"Guests, what would you like to eat?"
After ordering a few of Liu Ruo Qing's favorite dishes, Yan Yuan added another sentence before the waiter left, "Bring me a bowl of brown sugar water to boil."
"Alright, customer, please wait a moment."
Liu Ruo Qing sat beside Yan Yuan, his face slightly flushed. He felt that if Yan Yuan talked about this in front of everyone else, it would make them extremely embarrassed.
His hand reached under the table and pinched his palm hard, causing Yan Yuan to laugh softly.
Shen Qin and Wang Xuan Ling looked at the couple acting as if no one else was there, and their expressions were different.
Shen Qin's eyes were filled with envy.
The prince had taken good care of her, even taking care of her every month.
Not to mention he was a prince of great authority, even men of ordinary families rarely paid attention to their wives' affairs and would always keep it in their hearts.
Yesterday, the prince came back from outside with the princess in his arms. He probably knew that she was coming for a month, so he didn't want her to step on the snow, right?
Shen Qin's eyes drooped. In this world, she didn't know if she would ever meet a man who doted on his wife like the Duke.
She picked up the cup of water in front of her, lowered her eyes, and lightly drank, not even daring to look in Wang Xuan Ling's direction.
If she was his second sister, Wang Xuan Ling would probably treat her the same way his prince treated his wife.
In Shen Qin's heart, there were some bitterness, but she didn't dare let anyone discover it.
At this time, Qi Feng had returned from the outside, his body still emitting the cold air that he had brought back with him.
Yan Yuan wrinkled his brows, brought Liu Ruo Qing to his side, and then said to Qi Feng: "Stand far away."
Qi Feng didn't know how he had angered his master. His face was at a loss and he looked innocent, but he didn't dare to ask anything.
"Your Highness, the Yu County Insignia is still in the Guangshun Mansion's prison. According to Subordinate's investigation, Vice Minister Han intends to send it to the capital after the snow has completely melted, and wait for the Ministry of Justice's orders to come out."
Because they were separated by a little, Qi Feng was afraid that he would expose their identities, hence he used an extremely low voice to speak.
They were all proficient in martial arts, so no one around could hear Qi Feng's voice, but they could hear it clearly.
In addition, after the catastrophe, there weren't many people coming to eat in the inn, only those rich and well-off families.
There weren't many people, so they naturally wouldn't notice them.
"Take him away after the snow has melted. Is he only responsible for his crimes and not for the location of the food?"
Liu Ruo Qing frowned, her tone was somewhat sullen: "What kind of trash is the Emperor?"
"Cough, cough!"
Yan Yuan covered his mouth and coughed lightly, then lowered his voice and went close to her ear, saying, "Madam, don't forget, we were also sent by Kaiser."
Liu Ruo Qing glared back at him, "I'm not, I ran away from home, don't count me in."
Yan Yuan laughed bitterly. He really couldn't argue when he met a wife who was unreasonable when she was angry.
"Shen Qin isn't either. She accompanied me out to relax."
Liu Ruo Qing added, then looked at Wang Xuan Ling, thought for a bit and said: "Young Master Wang is out on a tour, only you and that dog official were sent by the Kaiser."
Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing had vented her anger on him, Yan Yuan was also rather innocent, "Madam, are you trying to keep your husband, that mediocre officer Han Hai, on the road?"
"If you can't find out anything, isn't it just following him around?"
Liu Ruo Qing snappily snorted twice. The other three saw that Yan Yuan had been beaten up in front of his own wife and drooped their heads, not daring to make a sound.
The eighth prince was right, the ninth prince was truly a wife and slave.
As Yan Yuan's bodyguard, Qi Feng immediately turned around and prayed for himself in his heart: "Your Highness, this Subordinate didn't see or hear anything, please don't kill me to keep it a secret."
After breakfast, the few of them split up to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the relief food.
The truths that the commoners found out were quite high, especially when it came to an official.
Thus, in the subconscious hearts of these few people, they still held a little bit of goodwill towards Yu Liang, the Cheng Yang Zhixian.
"Xuan Ling, today, you and Shen Qin will set out for the Guangshun Mansion. Try to find a way to enter the prison in the Guangshun Mansion to meet up with Yu Liang, and get some reliable information out from his mouth."
"Us?"
Wang Xuan Ling pointed to himself, and then looked at Shen Qin who was at the side, with a trace of rejection in her eyes.
It was as if she didn't want to make things difficult for Wang Xuan Ling. She pursed her lips, braced herself, and said: "My prince, why not I go with my wangfei, you go with my prince."
Yan Yuan frowned unhappily, "This is an order, do you think you can bargain over it?"
His gaze swept across Liu Ruo Qing, and said with a straight face, "The wangfei is not feeling well today, so I am worried about letting her leave this king's side. Hurry up and go. This King and the wangfei still have other matters to attend to. "
Yan Yuan's tone was not very good, so Shen Qin did not dare to say anymore.
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The two of them braced themselves and agreed. Then, Yan Yuan brought Liu Ruo Qing and left.
After a night of snow and the harsh morning sun, the snow on the street had gradually melted. After the cleaning, the street was no longer as slippery.
"Where are we going now?"
Liu Ruo Qing looked at Yan Yuan and asked.
"Yu Liang was escorted to Guangshun Mansion. Didn't he still have his family? Let's start with his family and see if we can get anything out of them. "
"True."
The two came to the front of the magistrate court side by side. After Yu Liang was escorted away, the Zhixian's family members and servants had always been within the magistrate court, and were not restricted by Han Hai.
Before Yu Liang was convicted, the Yu Family could move freely.
"Are we going in like this?"
Liu Ruo Qing stood outside the town and said softly: "We secretly interviewed them this time, so if they come here for no reason, it will definitely arouse suspicion. Besides, didn't Han Hai come to court every day to meet you?"
Yan Yuan held her hand with a relaxed look on his face. His fingers were casually playing with Liu Ruo Qing's soft and tender fingertips, causing Qi Feng, who was beside him, to be unable to resist holding his forehead a few times.
