The whole family travels through the book, the plot is broken but the characters are not

Unlike Fengye Village which is deserted, Fengxi Town and Wuping County are inhabited by people.

Among these people, some did not have time to escape and survived.

Some people later heard that the Jiyang Army no longer killed people, and they returned because they could not survive outside.

Some of them just returned after the Jiyang Army retreated recently.

But there are very few people, and the entire Wuping County is very depressed.

The next day, Lu Yanyan met Liu Pozi.

Liu Pozi was lucky. Her son and grandson took her to Yunkong Temple and she escaped the disaster.

Now they live in a small house in the county town.

Li Jiren made arrangements for the surviving people in Wuping County. Most of them settled near the county town and cultivated a few acres of land to make a living.

Liu Pozi's family also received some land.

She heard from the Ji Yang army that stayed here that the order to massacre the city that day was not given by King Lin.

Liu Pozi didn't care about these things. The lives of the lower class were like grass. They were just pawns in the fights between the big guys.

All she cared about was staying alive.

Later, she discovered that the Jiyang troops really didn't seem to want to kill them.

Gradually, Mrs. Liu became bolder and would come to the county every once in a while to clean up Lu Fugui and Lu Yanyan's shops.

Lu Yanyan and Han Qingyun are the Liu Pozi we met in the shop.

When Mrs. Liu saw the two of them, she knelt on the ground and cried, thanking God.

She heard that many people who escaped died on the way.

At Yunkong Temple, she heard Li Jiren was looking for Han Qingyun, and she didn't know whether that man had any ill intentions.

There was a company captain in the Jiyang army who was close to Li Jiren.

Captain Lian once met her and said that the Han family were all in Luocheng and were living well.

Mrs. Liu didn't know whether it was true or not, and could only hope that what the captain said was true.

Now that she had seen Han Qingyun and the other two, and knew that no one in the Han family was indeed in trouble, she was finally relieved.

Liu Pozi's son is a simple and honest man who is less than 40 years old. Her grandson is about 16 or 17 years old and looks like a loyal and honest man.

The two knew that it was because Lu Yanyan returned Liu Pozi's indenture that their family was reunited.

They knelt in front of Lu Yanyan and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Lu Yanyan asked them to get up. The two of them smiled innocently and started sweeping the floor with brooms.

"Grandma Liu, this shop can't be operated, why bother cleaning it?"

Mrs. Liu cried and laughed at the same time: "The captain who was here before said that Wuping County would be fine, and the shops of the Lu and Han families would still be yours. I thought if you really came back, it would be so dirty. Don't you see? You are back. If I had known, I would have come to clean it yesterday. Master, young master..."

Lu Fugui, Lu Changping and Dalin had just come from Lu's shop.

They planned to turn the shop into a transit station for caravans.

I thought the lock on the shop door had been smashed by the people who broke into Wuping County last year, so it must be very dirty and messy inside.

Unexpectedly, the shop was very clean. The knocked-over containers and shelves had been put back together, and the cracked cabinets still had signs of repair.

After asking the people around him, Lu Fugui found out that it was Liu Pozi who went to clean up regularly.

Lu Fugui nodded to Liu Pozi.

A few of them sat down and talked about what happened after they separated.

Lu Yanyan asked some more questions about Yunkong Temple.

Mrs. Liu was worried that Lu Yanyan was still angry about the nonsense that Monk Liaowu had said, so she casually mentioned other things.

One thing caught the attention of Lu Yanyan and others.

Mrs. Liu went to the Lu family late and had no idea about the disaster that had befallen the Lu family that year.

When she was in Yunkong Temple, Li Jiren asked her about the Han family. After Li Jiren left, a group of people surrounded her and asked her all kinds of questions.

Upon learning that she was originally a servant of the Lu family in Fengxi Town, some people asked mysteriously whether the disaster that had befallen the Lu family in the past was related to the noble lady.

As soon as this person said this, others responded.

Only then did Mrs. Liu realize that the Lu family had been nearly destroyed by someone.

She survived thanks to the kindness of Lu Youtian and his wife, and because Lu Yanyan returned her indenture contract, she was able to reunite with her son and grandson. Naturally, she was extremely grateful to the Lu family.

So when she heard that person say that the Lu family might have been harmed by a woman, she asked for extra details.

The Lu family's current shop in Wuping County was also sold to raise ransom money, and was only redeemed by Lu Fugui a few years ago.

Before being sold, this shop was a restaurant called Lu's Jinyulou.

Wuping County has a good geographical location and many wealthy businessmen come and go.

The Jinyu Tower is decorated very luxuriously and is also the property of the Lu family. Almost all the merchants who settle in Wuping County know about the Lu family in Shangyang Prefecture.

Jinyulou has a brisk business, and most of its customers are wealthy businessmen with generous spending power.

In the winter of the eighteenth year of Emperor Huiren's reign, a woman dressed very luxuriously and wearing a veil on her head stayed in the Jinyu Tower for a few days.

The woman was very mysterious. No one had ever seen her true face. All they knew was that the people around her were masters.

The woman seemed very satisfied with her stay and even gave a tip to the waiter before leaving.

Afterwards, a man next to the woman inquired about the affairs of the Jinyu Tower. After learning about the Lu family's immense wealth, the man revealed a bit of greed...

Lu Fugui clenched his fists when he heard this. The Lu family had gone to Shangyang Prefecture a long time ago and didn't know much about what happened in Wuping County.

"Do you know who that woman and the people around her are?"

Mrs. Liu shook her head.

It had been many years since the incident, and whether it was related to that woman was just speculation.

She asked people at Yunkong Temple, but no one knew much.

But the woman was really different from them, so they paid more attention to her.

Mrs. Liu was old and was relaying other people's words, so she didn't remember some things very clearly, but her son and grandson remembered some details.

The woman should be very young, and judging by her figure, she is no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

She had a sweet and graceful voice. Although she wore a veil on her head, judging from her figure, demeanor, and the shape of her face underneath the veil, she must be a stunning beauty.

She was dressed very elegantly, not like the daughter of an ordinary wealthy businessman, but more like a daughter of an official.

When the woman walked, she couldn't help but touch her belly, as if she was pregnant...

This was all Liu Pozi and the others knew. Lu Yanyan thanked them and let them go.

Lu Fugui tried hard to recall who the owner and waiter of Yulou were.

But he was still young at that time and had rarely been to Jinyu Tower.

"Dalin, go to the city right away and ask Shopkeepers Wang and Jiang if they can still find the shopkeeper and waiter from the Jinyulou from twenty-three years ago."

Lu Yanyan and Han Qingyun also hurried to find Li Jixin.

In the winter of the eighteenth year of Emperor Huiren's reign, she was pregnant. If the child was born, he would be the same age as Ji Siyuan.

Li Jixin is currently in the county government office.

The new magistrate was an old acquaintance of Prince Lin and Prince Qing, Cen Zhongwen, the son of Minister of Justice Cen Tao.

After the Jiyang Army withdrew from Wuping County, the court was unable to choose who would take over as the magistrate of Wuping County.

Most officials were also afraid that if King Lin made a comeback, they did not want to sacrifice their lives for the country like Qian Yongda.

The so-called sacrificing one's life for the country was nothing more than sacrificing one's life for Emperor Zhaowen.

But Emperor Zhaowen is not worth it for them to do so.

However, if they could not resist as hard as Qian Yongda did, what awaited them would be the butcher knife of Emperor Zhaowen.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to come to Wuping County?

Cen Zhongwen, who had worked in Taichang Temple for more than ten years, took the initiative to come to Wuping County.

Except for Emperor Zhaowen, no one in the court disagreed.

Emperor Zhaowen was forced to compromise again.

Except for a few palace maids and eunuchs serving Emperor Zhaowen who were injured, everyone was happy.
