Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

"Who said it wasn't true? Even the little girls had to write about it when they were fighting for a piece of cloth. It must have been difficult for him to collect so much information in such a short time." Leng Youran half leaned on Li Tianze's shoulder and chuckled.

There are many people in Liaodong who share the same idea as them.

But in the end they were all convinced by their "conscience".

They all knew Lord Li's reputation, and they only regretted that they could not become citizens of Linnan.

Now that Lord Li has posted the charges against Magistrate Xiao’s family, they must be true.

None of the Xiao family members are good people.

The saying "a child's character can be seen in his eighties when he was three years old" is truly reflected in the family of Magistrate Xiao.

As the two of them walked back, the people on both sides of the road were complaining about what was happening in the Xiao Mansion.

It is rare that with so many people talking, no one said that Li Shuai made a wrong call.

***

"Are you tired?" Li Tianze held Leng Youran in his arms.

Leng Youran shook his head. "I'm not tired, I just feel a little sore in my butt, and I feel a little sleepy from the bumpy ride."

Li Tianze looked at the situation outside through the carriage curtain. They had been on the road for a month and a half.

They encountered no less than five assassination attempts along the way.

Li Shuai did a good job of controlling the situation, and they didn't have any chance to take action along the way.

If everything goes well on the road ahead, they will be able to reach the capital of Northern Frontier in three days.

"Then you go back to the space and rest for a while. I'll be guarding outside."

Because of Li Shuai, they hardly ever went back to the space to rest along the way.

Even when Leng Youran felt hungry at night, You Xian would prepare a special meal for the two of them in the carriage.

"It's okay. It's lunch time soon and the professor will definitely come over." She had demonstrated her spatial ability in front of him before.

In order not to reveal the secret that his own space was also brought here, Leng Youran was very careful along the way and did not even use "Qinggong".

As if to confirm her words, Li Shuai's voice was heard outside the carriage.

"Oh... Youran, there is a nice place ahead. We plan to camp there at noon. Do you want to come down and take a walk?" Li Shuai already knew that Leng Youran was pregnant.

It's really hard for him not to know.

Li Tianze protected her every day like a hen protecting her chicks, and gradually they noticed something was wrong.

Because of her pregnancy, Li Shuai would unconsciously take better care of her.

Even the Third Prince, who never liked to use his brain, would often tease them, saying that if he hadn't known earlier, they wouldn't have known each other before.

He almost thought they had known each other for a long time. It was really because Li Shuai cared too much about Leng Youran along the way.

The three of them didn't say much about this, but just smiled in response.

They all thought to themselves: The Third Prince is not concerned about things that he rejects, but he sees other people's affairs more clearly than anyone else.

"Okay, then I'll go down and take a walk."

The crowd's carriages gradually stopped.

Leng Youran also saw an unexpected person on the road and pointed to the prison van next to him. "Hasn't Magistrate Xiao been sent back to the capital? What happened to him?"

Li Shuai smiled meaningfully, "It's not easy to enter the capital, especially for Prefect Xiao, but there are also benefits to bringing him along." Only in this way would the Sixth Prince be anxious.

They were about to arrive in the capital. The remaining city governor was His Majesty's man, and it was impossible for him to take action against them.

Therefore, if the Sixth Prince wants to take action, he can only choose this route.

The place where they are now on this road has the widest view.

When the two saw that Li Shuai was staring straight ahead while he was talking, Leng Youran also became a little curious.

Where they were now was a flat open space, with mountains overlapping a few miles away from them.

Although it is winter and the leaves are falling, the road ahead cannot be seen with the naked eye.

She quietly released her mental strength.

"You Ran, I'll take some people to explore the road ahead. If the road is difficult to walk on, I guess we'll have to rest here tonight."

Leng Youran and Li Tianze understood his thoughts clearly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Li Shuai's gaze lingered on her pregnant belly, a hint of worry in his eyes. "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No, that's fine, don't worry."

Li Shuai doesn't think so. Although he can't feel the hardship of pregnancy, he still knows how dangerous pregnancy is for a woman.

He glanced at Li Tianze unkindly, "She's already like this, why did you accept the prince's invitation that day?"

Before Li Tianze could say anything, Leng Youran came to his defense, "Professor, this isn't Tianze's fault. I wanted to come here. Opportunities like this are rare. If it weren't for the Third Prince inviting us, we might not have met until now!"

Li Shuai nodded secretly, it was true,

Although he knew about the affairs of North City and felt that the Lord of North City was not an ordinary person, he never thought that person would be her.

If the Third Prince's secret guard had not gone and told her that her surname was Leng, he would not have known her name was Leng Youran if he had asked a few more questions.

Thinking about it now, he seemed to understand why he came here.

perhaps.....

Li Shuai didn't know what he was thinking about, and he stared at Leng Youran again and again with burning eyes.

Li Tianze subconsciously stepped forward to block his gaze, clenched his fist and put it to his lips and coughed twice, "Professor... I would be jealous if Magistrate Li looked at my wife like this." He changed the word "Professor" when he saw the person coming behind him.

Li Shuai cleverly guessed that someone was coming from behind, and said in a slightly teasing tone, "Master Li, do you want to eat more? You've eaten quite a lot along the way, so you don't mind a little more."

"What to eat? Something delicious?" The third prince came over rubbing his hands.

They looked as if they had been caught stealing food.

The three of them suppressed their laughter and lowered their heads.

"Your Highness, we are just joking. Why don't you take a rest in the carriage?"

"Prefect Li, I'm not saying anything harsh about you, but how could you let me stay in the carriage the entire time? I've either been rushing or being hunted down along the way. I finally have this rare moment of leisure, so how could I not enjoy it? Look at this..."

There was no grass anywhere.

Foggy sky.

There is still dust on the ground under my feet.

"Ha, ha, ha, this is indeed not a good place to enjoy the scenery."

The Third Prince himself found it absurd and could only laugh dryly.

The three of them tacitly didn't reply to him, but stared at him leisurely, motioning him to continue.

"Well, I'd better go and see how their tents are set up!" After saying that, he turned around and ran away.

Leng Youran grinned and looked at his back, "Your emperor must be very happy, with the Third Prince as a lively treasure."

"Yes and no, Your Majesty is also very worried." General Li was not lying.

The Emperor of Northern Frontier spent a lot of time and effort on this younger brother.
