After determining the location of the house, the group divided the work and worked together. Chen Qiang and Chen Feng went to buy things for the house.
"Mattresses, quilts, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, meat—all these things need to be bought. You two can also look for anything else in the kitchen that needs to be added and prepare them all. Also, buy a new lock for the front door."
By the way, if you have enough time, you can go and look at the carriage! The oxen and donkeys will definitely be used to pull the people to the farm, and then the family will need a means of transportation."
After Tian An gave the instructions, he and Zhao Yiming took Deng Xue, Xiaokang and Xiaoqi and prepared to go out of the city to pick everyone up.
Nothing in the house was tidied up yet, and they were worried about leaving the two little ones behind, so they had to go back and forth with them.
After a lot of trouble, it was already past noon when they left the city gate.
Everyone looked at the changed people and hurried forward, asking in surprise, "Why did you come out? Did things go wrong?"
Tian An waved his hand and said, "We bought a house in the city and are here to pick you up. Hurry up and pack up and follow us into the city!"
The village chief was incredulous and asked, "It's only been half a day, and you've already bought the house?"
Mr. Han on the side also said: "Yes! It doesn't count if you don't have the house deed and the land deed."
Granny Qin also said worriedly: "You guys won't be deceived by others, right?"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly became nervous.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhao Yiming hurriedly said: "Don't worry, everyone, we have obtained the house deeds and land deeds, and we have not been cheated."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Han was even more puzzled. "It would take several days to get the property deeds and land deeds, and you spent half a day, not counting the time it took to get them back and forth to the city. That's only an hour!"
Tian An explained: "We met a noble man who helped us, so we saved a lot of time."
"Oh! I see. I was wondering why it was so fast!"
Everyone understood, but Mr. Han frowned. What kind of noble person could accomplish such a thing in a capital city full of noble people? And why would he help Tian An and Zhao Yiming, who were unfamiliar with the place?
Suddenly, Mr. Han noticed that Yaoyao and Xiao Laosan were not with him. Could it be...
Before he could figure it out, Tian An started urging him, "Everyone, pack up quickly. We're going into the city."
Everyone thought they would have to stay at the city gate for a few days, so they set up their tents. However, they didn't expect that Tian An and Zhao Yiming would come to pick them up in just one morning. They were busy packing up their things, making quite a bit of noise.
The soldiers guarding the city saw some unusual movement and rushed over to check. "What are you doing?"
Zhao Yiming hurried forward to explain, "We've already settled down in the city and bought a house. We came here specially to pick you up. We're all packing up, so we made a bit of noise. Please don't blame us, sirs."
The soldier who had registered them that morning recognized him and said in disbelief, "You've already bought a house and registered your household registration in just one morning?"
Seeing that they didn't believe him, Tian An hurriedly took out the house deeds, land deeds and their household registration from his bag and handed them over.
Several soldiers guarding the city looked at today's date on the household registration with a look of surprise, and then looked at the address on the title deed. It was actually the inner city?
How could this be possible? They wanted to say that the deed was fake, but no matter how they checked, it showed that it was authentic.
It was really weird. Several soldiers looked at each other and finally came to the conclusion in their hearts that there was someone above them, and it was a big shot.
A group of people packed up their things and successfully registered to enter the city.
At this time, the so-called big shot above Tian An and Zhao Yiming was reporting the situation to the emperor.
Xiao Chen, the third son of the Xiao family, knelt on the ground, lowered his head and explained in detail how he and Yaoyao were tied up and how they were rescued.
After a while, the emperor raised his head from the table and asked, "The people who saved you were two children?"
Xiao Chen emphasized, "Zhao Yiming is an adult, not a child anymore."
The emperor glanced at him and frightened him so much that he quickly lowered his head.
Looking at his useless appearance, I was really angry, but also felt sorry for him because he had suffered a lot these days. Finally, I could only sigh and said, "Okay, you can go down!"
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stood up to take his leave. Just as he reached the door, he heard his father's majestic voice, "Go down and practice your martial arts well, or some random thief can kidnap you."
Xiao Chen quickly responded, "Yes, Father, I will start practicing as soon as I get back."
After Xiao Chen left, the emperor put down his pen and asked, "How is the prince's investigation going?"
"Third brother said those thieves were knocked unconscious, but when our people arrived, they found that they had died from knife wounds. It was obvious that they were killed to silence them. Moreover..."
The emperor looked at him with a critical look and said, "Go on."
"Based on the clues left by the thieves, our people discovered one of their hideouts ten miles away. There were... traces of the Eight Kings' men."
"Heh" the emperor snorted coldly, and the imperial pressure was instantly emanated.
"Old Eight has been getting more and more active these days. But how can you keep an ungrateful person tamed?"
The prince couldn't respond to this, so he simply stopped talking.
"Is it okay to save Yaoyao's two children?"
The prince replied, "There seems to be no problem according to the information, but we are still investigating the details."
After thinking for a while, he said, "Father, that Zhao Yiming looks a lot like my cousin."
The emperor rubbed his temple wearily, "Which cousin?"
"Cousin Mingjue."
The emperor looked over fiercely, "How similar are they?"
"Seventy percent, no, at least eighty percent." The prince affirmed.
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly for me as soon as possible," the emperor said excitedly. "Also, keep a close eye on everyone in the Zhao family's second branch. I'll personally deal with them when Mingjue returns."
"Father, there's one more thing. Zhao Yiming is engaged. If he's really Mingjue's cousin..."
After the excitement, the emperor calmed down and said, "Let's find out first."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out, "Let's go! Let's go see Yao'er."
At this time, Yaoyao was showing off to the Queen how delicious the candy Xiaokang gave her was.
The queen hugged her lovingly and said, "There are so many good things in the palace, but they are not as good as a piece of candy!"
Yaoyao carefully took out a chocolate and handed it to the Queen. "You'll know once you try one, Queen Mother. None of the candies in the palace are as delicious as this."
The maidservant beside her was about to take the chocolate and test it for poison. Yaoyao pulled her hand back and said, "Aunt Qingyi, I'm sorry, I can't give you this. Yaoyao only has a few of them, and they'll be gone once you eat them."
After that, he handed it to the Queen's mouth and said, "Mother, this is really delicious. Yaoyao has eaten it several times."
Looking at her daughter's hopeful eyes, the queen hesitated for a moment and then took a bite of the chocolate in Yaoyao's hand.
"Your Majesty..."
