Song Jiaqi smiled sinisterly, "I've already thought of a way. Let's go back first."

"Okay!" Song Qingyin nodded and returned to the cave with Song Jiaqi.

Jiang Chunhua was puzzled when he saw them coming back. "Why did you go out for five or six days before coming back? What did you do?"

Song Jiaqi said nothing. After gathering everyone, he said, "Song Yao and the others have gone to Zhao State. We must hurry up and follow them. We can't stay here forever!"

Everyone was very confused when they heard what Song Jiaqi said.

Song Liangji frowned and said, "They all went to Zhao State? But they are all criminals of the Great Dynasty. Going to Zhao State...are they not afraid of death?"

Song Jiaqi said, "I saw Song Yao show a token to the border guards. She must have been in Zhao State before, and the token must be from Zhao State, otherwise those guards wouldn't have let them in directly!"

Everyone was confused. No one could understand why Song Yao had the Zhao State token in his hand, nor did they understand why they wanted to go to Zhao State.

Jiang Jingshu asked, "Should we follow them now?"

Song Jiaqi said, "They have already entered Zhao State. If we go over there, we will say that we know Song Yao and the others, but we didn't come with them because something happened. If the officers and soldiers ask you, you must say this."

"I understand!" Song Liangji nodded.

Everyone packed up and set off.

They didn't have much to take with them, so they took some food stolen from Song Yao and some simple pots and pans.

After walking for five days, they finally reached the border.

When the officers and soldiers at the border saw Song Jiaqi and others, they immediately came over, each pointing their weapons at them!

The leading officer sized them up and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't you know this is Zhao territory? Get out of here if you don't want to die!"

Song Jiaqi said, "My lords, didn't a group of people pass by here just now? Actually, they were my niece and her family. Her name is Song Yao, and I'm Song Jiaqi, her uncle. My wife had some discomfort in her legs and feet, so she rested there for a while. She asked us to wait until she felt better before coming back. My lords, she has a token in her hand, right? We are really together."

The leading officer thought about it and realized that if they were not together, why were they all here? Why did they have to pass through here?

Moreover, he said that the woman had a token in her hand.

She did have the token in her hand.

Forget it. He didn't dare to offend His Royal Highness Prince Rong. If these people didn't go over, and the person with the token didn't see them coming for a long time, he might come to punish them.

In order to avoid causing any trouble, the leading officer said, "If that's the case, then come in."

Anyway, he was not afraid. If anything happened in the future, he could just blame it on that woman.

Then he had the door opened.

After Song Jiaqi and his men came in, they expressed their gratitude to the officer and left.

Several people felt very nervous, afraid that they would suddenly call out to him, afraid that they would recognize him and not let them pass.

After walking for a while, they felt relieved when there was no sound behind them.

Jiang Jingxian lowered her voice and said, "Those people are really stupid. They actually believed it!"

Jiang Chunhua said: "They will naturally believe it, because Song Yao and the others passed through here, and Song Yao has the token in her hand... Naturally, they dare not be suspicious."

Song Qingyin asked, "What exactly is that token in her hand? Why did these soldiers let them pass?"

Song Jiaqi said: "Maybe only Song Yao knows this, but I don't care."

They continued to move forward, and after eight or nine days, they finally arrived at Changli City.

There were a dozen soldiers guarding the city gate. Seeing those soldiers, Song Jiaqi and others felt their hearts rise to their throats again.

Jiang Chunhua said, "Master, what should we do? There are soldiers over there."

Song Jiaqi glanced at Jiang Chunhua and the others, "Everyone calm down. As long as we haven't made any mistakes, as long as we are not criminals, they won't arrest us!"

Although Song Jiaqi said this, Jiang Chunhua and the others were still very uneasy.

However, people have already come this far, no matter how uneasy they feel, they have to bite the bullet and go ahead.

No matter what, you have to give it a try.

Afterwards, Song Jiaqi brought them to the city gate.

The officers and soldiers stopped them directly.

One of the soldiers came over and asked, "Where are you from? Where are you going?"

Song Jiaqi said, "My dear officials, we are here to look for my niece, Song Yao. They arrived a few days ago, but we had something else to do, so we didn't come with them."

The soldier looked Song Jiaqi up and down and asked, "Who is your niece?"

Song Jiaqi described Song Yao to him, "Her name is Song Yao, my name is Song Yuanbai, this is my wife Jiang Chunhua, I am her uncle, and she is her aunt."

Another soldier came over and said, "Boss, I know the man he's talking about."

The soldier glanced at him and asked, "You know? You know him?"

The soldier said, "I used to be under the command of His Royal Highness Prince Rong. When we were training in the mountains, several people came to see His Royal Highness Prince Rong, including the man named Song Yao!"

Upon hearing this, the officer asked, "Are you sure?"

The officer nodded, "I'm sure, sir, he's definitely talking about her, but she's the emperor's guest now, and the difference between her and them is too great."

Upon hearing this, Song Jiaqi hurriedly said, "I know. We all came from the countryside to seek refuge with her. We hope that the officials will allow us to go and see her. When we become successful in the future, we will definitely repay you!"

When the two officers and soldiers heard this, they immediately had some ideas in their minds.

The soldier cleared his throat and said, "Well, go find her, but do you know where she is?"

Song Jiaqi nodded, "I know, gentlemen, we'll be leaving first. Goodbye!"

"Go!" The soldier looked at them. After they walked away, he withdrew his gaze and stopped the family of four from entering the city.

……

Prince Jing's Mansion.

All of Song Yao and his companions were arranged by Prince Rong to live in Prince Jing's Mansion.

Prince Jing's Mansion is the largest palace in the capital. It is vacant now. Since there are so many of them, it is most appropriate for them to live here.

After dark, everyone came to the dining hall to have their meal.

During the meal, Song He asked, "Sister, when are we going to attack the Great Dynasty?"

Song Yao looked at Song He across from her, took a bite of her meal, and then said, "Don't worry."

Song Qing said: "After all, we are from the Great Dynasty. Living in Zhao State, I feel very uncomfortable. I have to live in the Great Dynasty to feel at ease."
