The whole family escaped from famine and accidentally occupied land

Wei Hongmian quickly sat up, "Of course I'm fine! I felt like fainting all of a sudden, so I just fainted. Your father said that, so it's normal for me to react a little violently."

Bai Zhao helped the man up and said, "Don't call him a scumbag anymore. He just likes to keep things to himself. If a couple doesn't communicate, there will be no good life."

"Let's go and have dinner. Mother is still worried about you, so go and visit her more often." Wei Hongmian put his right arm around Bai Zhao's arm, and the two went to the place where everyone was resting.

Bai Jingzhi saw that the couple was about to show off their love again, so he simply turned a blind eye.

She has been feeling a little dazed these past two days.

There's something... wrong with her.

Bai Jingzhi sat under a big tree and always felt that he had overlooked something.

She touched the jade pendant around her neck and began to think about what to do next.

"Here, eat something." Wei Liu sat next to her and handed her a hot steamed bun.

The flour ground from wheat in this dynasty was not as white as that in later generations, and the steamed buns in front of me were slightly black.

It doesn’t look very good, but it tastes chewier and sweeter.

After Bai Jingzhi took it, Wei Liu gave her a few pieces of pork jerky, and she simply wrapped it up and ate it.

"What are you planning, you little fox?" Wei Liu had a lot of contact with Bai Jingzhi these days, and she knew that he had an idea just by rolling her eyes.

Bai Jingzhi took a big bite of the steamed bun with pork jerky, and the aroma of wheat spread in his mouth.

"No way!"

"What do you think of Lin Chrom? This man went to the capital. He should be inconspicuous. I haven't seen any news about him."

Bai Jingzhi lowered his head and concentrated on eating the steamed bun without saying a word.

She knew something about the Wei family's intelligence network. Lin Ge had a low status in the capital and was not in the Wei family's eyes. The Wei family would not spend manpower and resources on worthless people.

"Understanding his temperament, we can then formulate the next plan."

Bai Jingzhi is not sure what kind of person Lin Ge is now, so he doesn't want to act rashly.

Whenever they attacked, they would either hit the target or bite off a piece of flesh from King Li.

Huaicheng.

Lin Chrom initially thought that Bai Zhao could not escape far.

He sealed the city gates and had people search thoroughly, but there was no trace of Bai Zhao.

"Strange, why would Bai Minghui have such a method? The Wei family is busy taking care of themselves, so why would they care about his safety?"

Lin Ge was working in the government office, and in his free time he thought of Bai Zhao's matter.

The Qian family did recognize Wei Hongmian's guard, but unfortunately he was assassinated as soon as he was captured.

Until the guard died, they hadn't gotten anything useful out of him.

Lin Ge rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, and his mind became much clearer. "If we had caught the person who was traveling with Bai Zhao yesterday, we would have known the whereabouts of the Wei family."

Capturing Bai Zhao was something the Qian family did behind his back, but now he has become interested in the Wei family.

He had just received news from Lianzhou that Prince Li was interested in the Wei family.

After the defeat in the capital, Lin Ge also wanted to take a chance on Prince Li.

If he could capture the Wei family, he would also be able to catch the eye of King Li.

The Qian family had invisibly done a good thing.

As long as they behaved themselves, Lin Chrom decided not to take the initiative to drive these people away.

Huaicheng was not seriously affected by the disaster and is a major grain-producing county in King Li's territory.

Sooner or later, the name of Lin Ge would be mentioned by King Li.

"Sir, someone from Prince Li's Mansion is here and wants to see you!"

Lin Ge's eyes lit up. What he wished for came true. Here came the opportunity.

"Where is the person?" Lin Ge couldn't hide his excitement, not wanting to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"It's right in front of the government office."

"Hurry up and invite the people in!"

The person who came to report ran out quickly.

Lin Ge straightened his clothes and chased after him.

He couldn't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Yue Wen rode a tall horse into the county government office, looking very majestic.

Lin Ge hurriedly saluted, "General, you——"

The horse's hooves kicked up and Lin fell to the ground.

Yue Wen pulled the reins hard, dismounted, and looked down at the man on the ground. "Are you Lin Ge, the magistrate of Huaicheng County? The prince has an order here. Go in and talk!"

After saying that, Yue Wen walked towards the county government office as if no one was around.

The yamen runner beside him dared to help him up, "Sir, are you okay?"

"It doesn't matter. Who is he? Did he tell me when he was outside? How many people did he bring with him?"

Lin Ge brushed off the dust on his clothes and narrowed his eyes.

"He brought about a hundred people, all riding horses, and they were covered in dust."

"Go to the restaurant now and book ten tables and treat us well."

After Lin Ge finished giving the order, he hurried into the house.

Yue Wen held up a piece of paper with Bai Zhao's portrait on it and said, "I am Yue Wen, the commander of Prince Li's personal guards. Is this Bai Zhao, the son-in-law of the Wei family?"

"It is indeed Bai Zhao Bai Minghui, but," Lin Ge took the portrait, "this is his original appearance. He has changed his appearance now, and he doesn't look like this."

"Disguise? No wonder!" Yue Wen had heard of this family a long time ago. The fact that the people sent by the prince did not come back must be related to this family.

"Do you know him?" Yue Wen became suspicious when he heard the person in front of him mention Bai Zhao's name.

"We were classmates. He was my father's apprentice. I almost caught him yesterday, but unfortunately he ran away."

Lin Ge intended to surrender to Prince Li, so he naturally did not hide it.

He told Yue Wen the truth about what happened yesterday.

"So you suspect that the Wei family has already left the city?" Yue Wen did not mention the matter of the Prince of Yan, but only revealed that his trip was for the Wei family.

"They have already left the city. We were in such a hurry yesterday that when we reacted and went to catch the Wei family, they had disappeared."

After Bai Zhao disappeared, Lin Ge sealed off the city and searched for him. He also sent people to chase him, but unfortunately all came back empty-handed.

He has now confirmed that the Wei family is not in Huaicheng.

"Are you from the capital?"

After Yue Wen knew what was going on, he began to inquire about Lin Ge's news.

This was exactly what Lin Ge wanted, so he naturally did not hide it and expressed his admiration for King Li to Yue Wen.

Yue Wen nodded. "In that case, I will write a letter to introduce you to the prince. If my mission goes well, you can come back to the palace with me on the way back, or you can go to Lianzhou City on your own."

Lin Ge suppressed his excitement and bowed, "Thank you, Commander Yue! Bai Zhao doesn't show his true face now, so I drew his current appearance for you to recognize."

Yue Wen nodded, and Lin Ge hurried to work.

At this moment, Yue Wen became extremely wary of the Wei family and Bai Zhao.

Disappearing in a space with only one door, Bai Zhao is no simple person.

While eating, Yue Wen wrote a letter to King Li.

Lin Ge watched from the side, his joy beyond words.

After coming out of Huaicheng, Yue Wen redistributed the troops and ordered thirty people to rush to Liuxian.

The remaining seventy people followed him directly to Jucheng.

If Liu County cannot stop them, Jucheng will be the last checkpoint.

Lin Chrom sent them away and looked at their receding backs. "Beijing, I will go back sooner or later."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the county government office.
