Rumors always spread widely. The Huangquan Inn was backed by four major families and was suddenly placed under martial law, which attracted the attention of many people. Sheng Changan jumped from the fourth floor, and even though he had taken care to hide, he was still seen by many people.

"Sir, the little girl is here." A soldier hurried forward. Everything in the inn was ready, waiting to set off.

Sheng Changan looked at Zhou Ru, who was shivering a little. In order to avoid being exposed, she was still wearing thin clothes, revealing her frostbitten parts.

"Do you want to come with me?"

"Are you leaving?" they both asked at the same time. Zhou Li's eyes were slightly red. After a pause, she slowly shook her head and said firmly, "I'm not leaving. I'll stay here and wait for the adults to come back."

Sheng Changan was stunned. "You believe I will come back so much!"

"Believe me, I will stay here to inquire for the news for you. Don't look at me like this. In this regard, there should be no one in the capital who can compare with me." Zhou Li smiled with a relaxed look.

Sheng Changan was in a complicated mood. "Do you... know what you are talking about?"

"I know, but I won't die. I still want to see my brother with my own eyes," Zhou Li said firmly.

More importantly, there are too many powerful people around the adults, and she must find her own use.

In the capital, this is her familiar territory, and the Lord just needs such a person, and she wants to be that person.

Sheng Changan was speechless. When she saw Zhou Li, she seemed to see Wang Yi who had insisted on going to Luodan. They were both equally persistent.

In the end, she didn't say anything else. How could such a smart person not know what she would face next? But she still chose to do this, which shows that this was the result of her careful consideration.

"Take care and wait for me to come back!"

Zhou Li's eyes lit up and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll be waiting for you in the capital."

"Okay." Sheng Changan's eyes curved slightly, her voice was soft but very firm. Regardless of whether there was a prophecy or not, she had decided to come to this capital.

Zhou Ru stared blankly at Sheng Chang'an as he climbed onto the horse. How could she not admire him for coming to the capital to save his own people even though he knew the danger?

Thinking of Guangping that the doctor mentioned, she...really wanted to go and see it, but if it was really as beautiful as he described, she hoped that Guangping was just the beginning.

"Zhou Li, you must leave immediately." Li Hui's face was serious. If she stayed any longer, once Liu Zhao found out that she was involved, she would definitely not have a good ending.

"This is the life-saving medicine Xu Qing gave you. The master left some silver for you over there. The master said that if you are caught, it doesn't matter if you reveal some information appropriately."

Zhou Li thought of the somewhat unreliable doctor. Although he seemed to be afraid of death, his medicine was indeed very effective. She clenched the medicine bottle in her hand and said, "I know."

After seeing Zhou Li leave, Li Hui led people to clean up some traces left behind. Fortunately, the snow was heavy enough and the traces were easily covered up, but it also caused a lot of difficulties for their return journey.

"Sir, the snow is too heavy. We must find a place to rest first." Li Hui frowned. The snow was too heavy. It was almost dark before night. It was too dangerous to hit the road in such a situation.

Sheng Changan looked at the road. There were mountains on both sides, all covered with snow. When he stepped on the snow, he could hear a "crunching" sound. If the horse's hooves had not been specially treated, even the horses would have to stop in such weather.

"First, look for any uninhabited houses or caves nearby."

"Yes." No one mentioned staying with a nearby family, not even Xu Qing, who was frozen pale.

Everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before the Liu family caught up with them. If it was discovered that someone had taken them in, these villages would be in trouble.

The group was lightly equipped, with only a horse and some personal belongings. Several soldiers tacitly took out oil paper and made a temporary shelter from the snow.

Xu Qing trembled and said, "Sir, won't we freeze to death here?"

Sheng Changan looked at him with a pale face and said, "If you can't speak, shut up."

Xu Qing's teeth were chattering, his whole body was shaking, and he curled up into a ball with his head drooping.

Sheng Changan also slowly exhaled a breath of hot air and rubbed his hands. It was true that plans could not keep up with changes. He originally thought that it could at least be delayed until the heavy snow was over, but who knew that Liu Zhao would act so quickly.

If the emperor had not left the palace, the medical skills of the palace could have delayed the death for a while. But now, she was 80% sure that the person was dead.

Beijing:

"Father, I lost my people," Feng Li said with some shame.

"No rush. She can't run far in such heavy snow. If she didn't have this ability, she would have died at the hands of that person long ago." The person who spoke was old and had no fear of the newly enthroned emperor.

For their aristocratic family, anyone can sit in this position as long as it does not affect their interests, but Sheng Changan happened to appear.

He wrote the last word, then raised his eyes and said, "Notify the other three families and fully cooperate with the one who is going to rob and kill her in all aspects."

"No, try to capture him alive." A gleam of light flashed in his eyes. She had a lot of good things in her hands. If such a person was in her hands, the Feng family's position as the head of the four major families would never be shaken by anyone.

"Yes"
