Chapter 1044： Secret passages

Two days later, the fire in the original Zhang family mansion was completely extinguished, and far away from the Wang mansion, it was full of coke dust, but the soldiers who were guarding outside did not leave, and still stood guard outside the mansion in shifts.

In the evening, Zhulan asked suspiciously, "Since the fire has been extinguished, why don't the soldiers outside the residence leave?"

For the past two days, there has been a lot of discussion, all speculating on why the original Zhang family's mansion was guarded.

Zhou Shuren had already guessed in his heart, "I think what the emperor wants to find, it is better to destroy it to find out, right? There is nothing to stop it now."

Zhulan thought of a possibility, "Did you say that the Zhang clan really didn't survive and all of them were exterminated?"

Zhou Shuren, "I don't know."

What Zhulan thought was just a guess. Forget it, I still don't want to. With this skill, it is better to think about her sons, "Changzhi doesn't know where he went."

Zhou Shuren looked away from the book, "They walked lightly, and they're already halfway there."

Zhulan, "I want to go back and have a look."

"Let's go back and have a look when it's not dangerous in the future."

As for the time to go to work, he should not move.

Zhulan nodded, and then chatted about the children at home. The two have been old couples since they met. They have been worrying about a big family for so many years. Even if they are young and old, they are now living as old couples. Most of the talk was about children.

In the mountain village in the northeast, when the evening came, Changzhi and his party hurried to the mountain village and found a family. After the discussion was settled, the girl and the old lady packed up the house, and Changzhi helped the lady out of the carriage.

Changzhi said: "Be careful, the road is slippery."

Su Xuan looked at her feet by the light of the lantern, "I already left early, but I made a mistake. The snow on the road is melting too fast, and there is snow everywhere. This road is really difficult to walk."

Changzhi was also depressed, "We're almost halfway there now, and we'll get there after a bit of patience."

Su Xuan snorted and entered the room. It was the first time she had been hurrying to sleep like this when she grew up. Although she wasn't squeamish, she couldn't stand it. Sitting on the mat, she felt a little out of spirit.

At this time, a woman came in outside the house. The woman came in and said, "We are having dinner, and my mother-in-law asked me to ask. The nobles need mutton, which is newly killed today."

Su Xuan's listless eyes showed a certain expression, "If you want, we want as much mutton as we want."

Zhang Sini rejoiced, "Okay, please come with me."

The old woman followed with her purse, and the old woman asked, "How about some fresh wild vegetables? We all want it, yes, I heard the chickens crowing just now. Are the chickens raised at home for sale?"

Zhang Sini paused, "I want to ask my mother-in-law."

Today's sheep were bitten by a wolf that ran off the mountain yesterday. They were killed during the day when they could not survive. Otherwise, they would not have been killed at home. I planned to sell them in the county. Here comes the guest.

An hour later, Su Xuan and the others had dinner, stewed mutton and chicken soup, and their hungry stomachs were finally full.

Early the next morning, Su Xuan and the others were about to leave. When they left, they bought some meat and food.

Jiang Sheng stepped out first and saw the doll standing under the eaves. The big one pulled the small one and looked at it curiously. He turned around with a smile and went into the house, where he got some snacks.

Changzhi followed, "Brother-in-law."

Jiang Sheng had already distributed the snacks to several children, and said with a smile, "Changzhi, I'm a bit like Jiang Du. It's the first time I've left them for so long."

Changzhi also thought about his son and daughter, so he walked over cautiously, "Fourth Young Master, the carriage is ready, we should set off."

Changzhi nodded, and turned to help his daughter-in-law get into the carriage. He turned around and glanced at the woman standing under the eaves.

Zhang Sanni was her daughter who brought her some snacks. She came out to thank her, but she didn't expect to meet someone she knew, Zhou Changzhi, the fourth son of the Zhou family. After so many years, she thought she had forgotten it, but she still remembered that she never went back to her hometown. It's good to have children.

It's just a little dazed, it turned out to be the Zhou family, and there are eight or nine guards in a team of carriages.

The boy took his mother's hand, "Mother, what do you think?"

Zhang Sanni smiled, "Mother is thinking, Dongzi will study hard in the future."

The boy nodded, "Yeah."

In the capital, Zhulan went to Ninghou Mansion in a carriage, passing by the burnt-down mansion, the gate had been demolished long ago, and there were still many soldiers standing guard outside the courtyard.

Zhulan arrived at Ninghou Mansion, and Rong Chuan was there today.

Xuehan took her mother's arm and said to Rong Chuan, "Go and do your thing, I'll accompany my mother."

Rong Chuan saw the ceremony, "Mother, then I'll go to work."

Zhulan waited for Rong Chuan to leave before asking her daughter, "What is Rong Chuan busy with today?"

Xuehan didn't hide it, "Today Rong Chuan will follow the prince on an errand."

Xuehan signaled that the old woman who was following behind didn't need to follow her, and after walking a little further, she continued in a low voice: "Mother, I heard father-in-law and Rong Chuan say that the emperor wants to check the secret way."

Zhulan looked sideways at her daughter, "Did you eavesdrop?"

Xuehan shook his head, "No, I was there when my father-in-law and Rong Chuan were chatting, and they didn't avoid me, so I thought, this is because my father-in-law wanted to use me to spread news to our family."

Zhulan wanted to make the emperor conduct such a thorough investigation, which obviously stimulated the emperor's nerves, and patted her daughter's hand, "I see."

Xuehan continued: "Rong Chuan secretly told me that the prince has a map of the entire capital in his hand, and the capital will be patrolled and searched by soldiers from the Beijing Protector Battalion in the past few days, asking me to buy more food, maybe two or more. The city will be closed on the day."

Zhulan twitched the corners of her mouth. The emperor and the crown prince really trusted Rong Chuan, and they were their own sons and younger brothers, but Rong Chuan, a kid, had his heart on the Zhou family and secretly told Xuehan, hoping that the Zhou family would know, where is this son-in-law? Son!

Xuehan continued: "Mother, buy some more food too."

Zhulan shook her head, "No, you can buy more at Ninghou's house, but not at Zhou's house, it will cause a chain reaction."

She knew in advance that she knew what she knew, and there was no need to do too much.

Xuehan thinks about it too Mother has a good idea. "

"Don't worry, there's enough food at home."

Xuehan burst out laughing, she almost ignored her mother's fondness for hoarding things, so she had nothing to worry about.

Zhulan continued: "And the capital can't be chaotic, the food supply will definitely be guaranteed, you don't have to worry too much."

Xuehan nodded, "Yeah."

In the palace, Zhou Shuren and others came out of the political hall, and they met Yao Houye who entered the palace. Zhou Shuren looked at Yao Wenqi, Yao Wenqi already had some gray hair, and after careful calculation, Yao Wenqi was not as old as him, he seemed to be a little younger. Years old, too, how old is Yao Zheyu.

But looking at it now, Yao Wenqi looks similar to him, this time I don't know how the emperor is going to toss Yao Wenqi.

Li Zhao silently pushed Zhou Shuren, "Let's go."
