Chapter 363 Tracking

Hua Xuewei stared at her generous little daughter in front of her, feeling mixed emotions and speechless for a moment.

Lin Pianran casually threw out a stack of silver notes worth one hundred thousand taels. Even her mother couldn't help but be astonished by her unrestrained and heroic attitude.

How much wealth has this child accumulated?

He just spends a hundred thousand taels at random. Even if you have mountains of gold and silver, you can't waste it like this!

Hua Xuewei was secretly worried.

So he whispered, "Pianpian, isn't that too much? For an average family, donating three thousand or five thousand taels is already very generous. Even if we have deeper respect and sincerity in our hearts, ten thousand or even twenty thousand silver notes would be enough to express our feelings. Why spend so much?"

"Besides, you're getting married soon, and you're still so extravagant. Wouldn't His Royal Highness be unhappy?"

Lin Pianran covered her mouth and chuckled softly, then hugged Hua Xuewei's arm and whispered in her ear, "Mother, don't worry."

"In the Great Qin Empire, there are few people richer than me. Even the emperor's private treasury may not have as many treasures or as much silver as I do."

After hearing this, Hua Xuewei's eyes suddenly widened, like two huge copper bells, flashing with confusion and puzzlement.

Lin Pianran's lips blossomed into a gentle smile, and she softly comforted her again: "Mother, every word my daughter said is true, there is absolutely no falsehood."

"My daughter is really rich. Money and other things should be spent without hesitation."

"If we could use this silver to help the brave soldiers on the battlefield, it would be a great act of kindness. They defend our country, fighting bravely and fearlessly to protect our country and its peace. We should do our utmost to show our respect and gratitude."

Seeing her daughter so insistent, Hua Xuewei had to agree reluctantly.

After receiving the banknote, Hua Xuewei gave Lin Pianran many instructions and warnings, asking her to be careful when traveling, and also carefully explained many precautions.

He warned her not to act alone, lest she fall into the trap of the bad guys.

Lin Pianran agreed obediently.

Hua Xuewei was full of worries, so she called Han Chaolin to her side again and gave him detailed and earnest instructions.

She gave a death order that Han Chaolin must always keep an eye on his sister, protect her, and ensure that she would not be harmed by anyone, day or night.

Han Chaolin had no right to argue, so he naturally nodded and agreed to everything.

From then on, he became his sister's personal bodyguard and vowed to protect her safety even at the cost of his life.

Not long after, Lin Pianran led a huge team of guards, which consisted of only a dozen people, and embarked on a journey to Yaocheng.

Yaocheng is located right on the fortress on the old general's way back to Beijing. It is also a stop that Han Zimo and his party must pass through on their way to exile. Its status is self-evident.

Yaocheng is not only strategically located, but also a prosperous city, ranking among the five largest cities in the Qin State.

The city's prosperous business is well-known far and wide.

The city is crowded with merchants and trade is booming. The city is particularly praised for its exquisite fabrics and superb embroidery craftsmanship, which are truly unique.

All the various cloths needed for Lin Pianran's shop were purchased from Yaocheng.

This time, she embarked on a journey to Yaocheng on the pretext of going there to select cloth.

However, in order to avoid being too conspicuous, she only had a dozen guards around her. A dozen of them disguised themselves as a group of traveling merchants, and followed Lin Pianran not far away, following her slowly and protecting her.

Two other teams were sent to separately inquire about the itinerary of Han Zimo and his group, as well as the news from the old general.

Lin Pianran asked the others to hide in the dark.

She always felt that the journey would not be smooth, and she had to be prepared to deal with various crises at any time.

Lin Pianran was not in a hurry along the way, because Han Zimo and his group of exiles were walking, so their speed would definitely be very slow. They had just set out yesterday and should not have gone far.

Lin Pianran and his group were riding in a carriage, so their speed was definitely faster.

It would be easy to catch up with them.

Therefore, Lin Pianran was not in a hurry to travel, and she was leisurely chasing forward along the way.

They arrived at Qingshi Town before sunset.

When returning to Beijing from the royal hunting ground, Lin Pianran had stayed in this town for one night.

I have a certain understanding of this town.

Lin Pianran took Han Chaolin and Jingyu and went directly to the "Yufulou" in Qingshi Town, planning to stay there for one night.

After properly arranging their rooms and luggage, the group asked the shopkeeper to prepare a sumptuous dinner on the second floor, as they were already starving.

They originally wanted to sit in a private room, but it had already been fully booked. So they looked for a good seat by the window, where they could also enjoy the view outside, and sat down happily.

This seat is truly wonderful. Leaning against the window, you can have a clear view of the street scene and passers-by downstairs.

Thanks to the fact that "Yufulou" is located in a bustling downtown, it is bustling with people.

The sounds of hawking, calling and playing are interwoven together to form a bustling symphony of life. Although a bit noisy, it has a unique flavor of the bustling city life.

While eating, Lin Pianran would occasionally glance at the bustling street scene below, which was quite interesting.

Han Chaolin looked at the table full of delicious food and just focused on taking care of his own stomach. He looked like a reincarnated devil and kept eating voraciously.

Jingyu has always been a man of few words. He just keeps his head down and eats all kinds of delicious food slowly and attentively.

At this time, Jingfeng and Jingyun came back together.

They first looked around and didn't see anything unusual.

Then he said hello to Lin Pianran and Han Chaolin, found two empty seats, and sat down casually.

As soon as he sat down, Jingyun quickly ate some food. After filling his stomach, he lowered his voice and began to report.

"Miss, Han Zimo and his group have also arrived near Qingshi Town, but they stayed in the lush forest outside the town and did not enter the city."

"We bribed the two escorting officers, and they gave Han Zimo and his family a lot of trouble along the way. If they walked too slowly or talked too much, they would be whipped."

"It's only a short distance, but they're already covered in wounds and tortured."

"Bai Anru and Zhu Yufang, these two women, had a deep grudge against each other and would quarrel and argue at the slightest provocation. The yamen runners found an excuse and each received two lashes."
