At night, the north wind blew as if it wanted to blow away everything in the world.

When Hua Qingqing heard the voice, she couldn't help but tremble.

It was the late night and she had just fallen asleep.

Suddenly there was a sound of fighting outside, and the light of fire was reflected on the window, flickering.

Hua Qing woke up but did not move.

Hua Wanru hugged her and whispered in her ear.

"Qingqing, go to sleep! Don't worry!"

Hua Qingqing nodded and closed her eyes.

Later, the sounds of fighting gradually died down and Hua Qingqing fell asleep again.

The next day, early in the morning, she got dressed, had breakfast, and then pushed the door open and went out.

Nothing has changed outside. People continue to do what they should do, but there is a lot more blood.

This time, Gao Yuanlin and his companions have learned through Qingqing that the person behind the plot to kill them is the Minister of Rites Qian Chengguang.

The reason was that the Minister of Rites was being used by someone.

In the palace.

Concubine Ru has become the emperor's favorite concubine, unmatched.

Gao Yuanlin thought that Concubine Ru was his and just happened to look very similar to Hua Wanru.

But Qingqing told him that Gao Ruer was originally Wei Ling's person.

Gao Yuanlin didn't believe it.

Hua Qingqing asked him, "Her name is Meidie, right?"

Gao Yuanlin believed this sentence.

After Gao Yuanlin and his family left, Concubine Ru introduced Wei Ling to the emperor, saying that Wei Ling was her aunt.

Relying on her abilities, Wei Ling successfully gained the emperor's trust and became a close elder and aide to the emperor.

The emperor would ask Wei Ling for her opinion on many things.

The reason why the Minister of Rites attacked Gao Yuanlin twice was because Concubine Ru had repeatedly bullied the Minister of Rites' daughter, Qian Yuning.

Qian Yuning almost committed suicide.

Qian Yuning is the only daughter of the Minister of Rites. How could she not be sad and want revenge?

It just so happened that Concubine Ru pretended to spread the news that her parents, that is, Gao Yuanlin and others, had returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors.

Concubine Ru was under the Emperor's nose, and the Minister of Rites could not do anything, so he thought of killing Concubine Ru's parents. This would also be considered cutting off her arm.

But the Minister of Rites didn't know that this was exactly what Concubine Ru wanted.

Last night, thanks to Qingqing's reminder, Gao Yuanlin and his team suffered very few casualties.

Although he killed the people sent by the Minister of Rites, he still left a few alive and allowed them to escape.

Gao Yuanlin planned to do the opposite.

Since Concubine Ru wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife, they will do the same.

I just don’t know if Concubine Ru and Wei Ling will be able to hold on when the time comes.

It turned out that the magistrate of the town was a relative of the Minister of Rites, but they did not move either.

The next few days were peaceful.

Obviously, the magistrate had learned what they wanted to let others know from the escaped people. Maybe the magistrate was passing the news back to Bianjing City.

They just need to wait and see what happens.

A few days later, Hua Qingqing and his companions continued on their journey. This time, they did not encounter any robbery or assassination along the way.

They walked for another month. At the end of November, they finally arrived at Beiping Prefecture in the north, where the Prince of Yan’s Palace is now located.

Hua Changjue, Hua Lingyi, Li Zhan, Gao Sheng, they were already there to greet them at the city gate.

Around noon, we finally saw a huge procession of horse-drawn carriages in the distance.

When several people saw it, they couldn't help but frown.

"Father, mother and the others are finally here!" Hua Lingyi was taller and his skin was darker.

At the age of sixteen, he is very calm and composed, which makes people feel at ease for no reason.

Hua Lingyi's height made Hua Changjue, Li Zhan and Gao Shen beside him look much thinner. But in fact, they were also tall among ordinary people.

Hua Changjue smiled and nodded.

"Indeed, it's finally here!"

It was four months later than them, and they were waiting impatiently and anxiously.

When the carriage was approaching, Hua Changjue, Hua Lingyi, Li Zhan, and Gao Sheng could not help themselves and rushed over on horseback, raising a cloud of dust all the way.

Hua Qingqing leaned on the window and saw Hua Changjue and the others at a glance, and got out of the carriage directly. She shouted at Hua Changjue and Hua Lingyi!

"Daddy, second brother!"

When Hua Changjue saw Qingqing, he smiled even more. He directly carried her from the carriage to the horse's back.

Kiss the top of her head.

"Qingqing, do you miss daddy?"

Hua Qingqing smiled and said, "Yes, I miss daddy so much!"

Jiang's eyes were red, "Master! You've lost weight!"

Hua Changjue's eyes were also a little sore, "You have lost weight too, Madam!"

Hua Lingyi rode over on horseback, hugged Hua Qingqing, and smiled so hard that his eyebrows were visible.

"I haven't seen you for four months, Qingqing, you've gained weight again!"

Hua Qingqing was angry, "I'm not fat, I just grew taller!"

The two of them laughed and joked.

Hua Changjue felt his arms were empty, so he simply reached out to Jiang.

At this time, all the carriages stopped.

Jiang carried Hua Lingan out of the carriage, but before she could react, Hua Changjue hugged her and carried her to the horse's back.

Jiang was startled and leaned her back against Hua Changjue's chest, sitting in his arms.

Jiang's face turned red instantly.

Hua Changjue whispered in her ear, "Madam, do you miss your husband?"

When Hua Lingyi saw his parents' attitude, he quickly rode his horse away from them and came to Hua Lingjian.

"Third brother, you are finally here! You are so slow!" Although he said this, his eyes were full of smiles. He even patted Hua Lingjian on the back.

Hua Lingjian was almost knocked off his horse!

Hua Lingjian sat up straight, also very happy, "Second brother! Your grip is still so strong. You almost knocked me down."

Hua Lingyi denied it, "It's because you are too weak. You need to practice hard!"

Hua Lingyi looked at Hua Lingshu, Hua Lingnan, and Hua Lingpeng. All three of them shuddered and rode back on their horses.

Hua Lingyi laughed, "Don't worry, I won't beat you. But you still have to practice hard. You're too skinny!"

The three of them nodded quickly.

"Yes, second brother!"

Hua Lingxuan is accompanying his wife in a carriage today! Hearing their voices, he quickly opened the curtain.

"Second brother! Long time no see!"

Hua Lingyi looked at him and saw the swaddling clothes in his arms, his eyes lit up.

"Brother, brother, please let me see my nephew!"

Hua Changjue also heard it at this time, and came over with Jiang.

"Oh, she's so beautiful! She looks like my sister-in-law!" Hua Lingyi was extremely envious.

When will he be able to have his own child? I haven't seen Princess Xinrong for a long time. I wonder how she is doing recently.

Hua Changjue looked at Kang'er with tears in his eyes. He was actually a grandfather now!

Look again, the whole family is together, how nice.

Li Zhan and Gao Sheng were also talking to the people from Black Wind Village. They were all very excited, and their laughter could be heard from far away.

Soon, they entered the city and after walking for a while, they arrived at the door of the house they had bought in advance.

It was also at this time that Hua Qingqing discovered that Gao Yuanlin and the others had left, and no one knew where they had gone.

But we'll see each other again.
