"Don't ask me why! I suspect Ouyang Fu is in our Yancheng!"
Hearing this, Zhou Jie was shocked. She looked at Han Luoxue in disbelief, even raising her hand to touch Han Luoxue's forehead before turning back to touch her own: "It's okay, you don't have a fever? Xue-meimei, why would you think that?"
"I'm just doing this as a precaution!"
Han Luoxue's eyes turned cold. She knew that this idea was a bit unrealistic, but what if it was?
Besides Sister Zhou, there's herself, plus her two children.
In addition, the people who came with me are all loyal and came all the way from the capital. Like Aunt Xu and her family, they came with their families. I must ensure their safety!
What to do? Ouyang Fu is ruthless and has no bottom line when it comes to doing things.
If he recognizes Sister Zhou, then their residence is definitely under his surveillance. Perhaps someone is even watching them from the sidelines?
Han Luoxue remembered the pepper spray she had ordered. Although it could catch people off guard, it wasn't lethal, and there were only three of them, which wasn't enough.
Han Luoxue looked at the system shop again, but unfortunately it hadn't been refreshed yet.
"You must prepare immediately, split into two groups, and leave with my mother!"
"Oh, and what about you?"
"Two more children?"
“The three of us will go together! If Ouyang Fu really comes to Yancheng, the first people he'll care about will definitely be me and the child. You and Mom go first. If you're safe, I'll be at ease.”
"No, Sister Xue, that would be too dangerous for you!"
"Wouldn't you and my mother be safe here? Let me tell you, Sister Zhou, if Ouyang Fu really comes here, he'll definitely capture me and the child to threaten Brother Chen. But if he captures you, he's very likely to kill you to silence you!"
After all, Ouyang Fu is currently on the run, so Sister Zhou and his mother are of little use to him. It wouldn't be surprising if he killed them directly!
As for Aunt Xu and the others, Han Luoxue plans to ask Wang Yan for help to find a remote village to temporarily settle them in.
"Well... alright! Once I return to the capital, I'll bring people over as quickly as possible!"
Han Luoxue smiled and nodded, but her heart was filled with bitterness. If her judgment was correct, it would definitely be too late!
I don't know if Ouyang Fu is really coming. If he is, it's very likely that he will make his move soon.
She'll put the child in the space then, and if anyone wants to catch the child, they can just let her catch them.
At the very least, she has many ways to save her life, and there have been plenty of opportunities to escape along the way.
It's fine if she's alone, but it would be troublesome if she brought a lot of people with her.
"lady!"
Upon hearing the news, Zhou Jun also looked anxious: "His Highness has assigned two bodyguards to protect you, but they haven't found anything unusual! Madam, why don't I have them search carefully to see if there are any suspicious people around us?"
Han Luoxue shook her head. The fact that nothing had been discovered for so long meant what? It meant the person supervising them was extremely cautious. Or perhaps she was overthinking it, but checking again now would be pointless.
"I remember the magistrate has a clerk who trusts him implicitly. Go and check on him. See if he's gone home in the last few days, and what his whereabouts have been! If he hasn't returned, then go and see his wife!"
If the former crown prince really comes to Yancheng, he will definitely go to see the county magistrate.
Given his cautious nature, he probably wouldn't let anyone who had seen him leave. The person in the county government office most likely to see him was the clerk.
Zhou Jun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went out to make arrangements.
This matter was extremely important. In less than an hour, he rushed back with a note in his hand: "Madam, you were right. That clerk really hasn't come back. He hasn't returned for several days. His wife said that after he returned that day, he was summoned back by the yamen officials not long after, and he hasn't come back since."
"Before leaving, he left a note saying that if anything happened to him, his wife should go to the capital to find someone to help him, such as the Crown Prince or the Zhou family!"
Han Luoxue took it and saw that it only had the character "Fu" written on it. It really was Ouyang Fu who had come!
Damn it, Han Luoxue's expression changed, "Let Sister Zhou and Yunniang leave first, find a place for Aunt Xu and the others to settle down temporarily, and Xiao Tao can go with them too, as for you..."
Han Luoxue looked at Zhou Jun, who hurriedly shook his head: "Madam, my mission is to protect you and the young master. I will not leave!"
"Then be careful, and prioritize your own life if anything happens! You should know that if Ouyang Fu wanted to capture me, he wouldn't do anything to me!"
"You take care of things outside first, and I'll talk to Brother Chen and the others. Since they know Ouyang Fu is here, even if they can't come in time, they should send someone to intercept him. At this time, we absolutely cannot let him get together with the people from Xiyao Kingdom!"
Ouyang Fu is now like a stray dog; the only place he can go is Xiyao.
The Emperor should see this; even at this point, his good son still hasn't forgotten to betray the country.
"Madam, why don't we leave now and head towards the capital? By the way, don't you have a disguise technique?"
Han Luoxue's eyes lit up. She had been too hasty. Now she could easily disguise herself and leave.
"Okay, I'll talk to Brother Chen first!"
Han Luoxue glanced at her inventory; she had quite a few disguise pills.
She distributed these to the people in the courtyard, telling them to find a chance to go out, take the disguise pill when no one was around, and try to escape.
Zhou Jun also thought this method was feasible.
Soon it was afternoon, and everyone in the courtyard had been settled. Han Luoxue also came out.
She and Zhou Jun were together, without their child. They went to a shop outside, seemingly to buy something.
The people who had been monitoring hesitated for a moment. Remembering that there were two children inside the room, they left one of them outside to keep watch, while the other followed behind, keeping a safe distance and not daring to get too close.
...
"Heh, Madam Han, you really have some tricks up your sleeve! You managed to escape from me once, do you think I'd let you escape again?"
Han Luoxue never expected that even though she was disguised as an old woman with white hair, she would still be captured by Ouyang Fu's men on the street.
"But I'm a little curious, since you came out yourself, what about your children? Don't tell me they're in your yard. My men went to check, and there was nothing there, and they were all gone!"
Upon hearing this, Han Luoxue remained silent.
How could she have imagined that Ouyang Fu would recognize her?
