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

Li Jixin and Cen Zhongwen are very different in age, but they and Prince Qing all have a common hobby - eating.

Before the late emperor passed away, Li Jixin was still a child.

Every time Prince Qing returned to Beijing, Cen Zhongwen would invite him to dinner.

Prince Qing would also bring Li Jixin with him, and occasionally Li Jiren.

Cen Zhongwen liked the looks of Li Jiren and Li Jixin so much that he wanted to pinch them hard every time he met them.

But everyone knew that Li Jiren was the crown prince who only lacked the power to issue an imperial edict, so Cen Zhongwen did not dare to mess with Li Jiren.

The younger Li Jixin became the target of Cen Zhongwen's face pinching and lifting.

Now times have changed and things and people are no longer the same.

Cen Zhongwen was very emotional.

Prince Lin is someone that almost everyone of their age looks up to.

He was not very familiar with Prince Lin, but he did not believe that Prince Lin would commit a massacre.

He asked Li Jixin, and Li Jixin just said that he was also investigating.

Li Jixin came to see Cen Zhongwen mainly because of Lu Fugui.

He heard from Lu Fugui that he wanted to transport Jiyang's specialties such as raisins, kumis, beef jerky, as well as the recent cloth, marinade, hot pot base, wine and other items to Wuping County for resale.

Ji Yang is too far away, the weather is very cold, and there are occasional invasions by foreigners.

In a short period of time, it is impossible for too many merchants to go to Jiyang to purchase goods.

Wuping County is different. It has a good location, developed transportation, and is not far from various provincial capitals.

Because of the massacre last year, many people did not dare to come to Wuping County.

But the Northern Ji Kingdom was established.

Li Jiren announced in a tough tone that Prince Lin's Mansion had been framed and demanded that the court thoroughly investigate the incident in Wuping County last year.

This incident made Emperor Zhaowen furious.

Ordinary people may not believe what Li Jiren said.

But what they wanted to see was the attitude of Prince Lin’s Mansion.

Li Jiren understood that Emperor Zhaowen was eager to pin the crime of the massacre on Prince Lin's Mansion, and he certainly did not expect the court to conduct a thorough investigation.

He simply used the excuse of asking the court to conduct a thorough investigation to express the attitude that Prince Lin's Mansion would not massacre the people.

Han Qingyun and Lu Yanyan also believe that although it will take a long time for the people's confidence to be restored, things must be done.

Wuping County is indeed a very suitable place, they must give it a try.

Even if it doesn't work out in Wuping County, at worst they can just transport it to Yuezhou Prefecture.

Upon hearing Li Jixin's purpose, Cen Zhongwen was naturally willing to help with all his strength.

He is now the chief official of Wuping County. He would be very happy if Wuping County could prosper again.

The two were still studying the arrangements for the shop when Wei Qing told Li Jixin that Han Qingyun had arrived.

Li Jixin's face changed instantly after hearing Han Qingyun's words.

Dahui returned to Jiyang with the letter that Lu Yanyan wrote to Lu Youtian.

Cen Zhongwen also asked the yamen runners to announce it everywhere, looking for anyone who had worked in the former Lu family Jinyu Tower or lived nearby in the winter twenty-three years ago.

Anyone who can provide useful information will be rewarded between five and one hundred taels.

For a moment, Lu Yanyan's shop was surrounded by people.

Plus the news that Dalin brought back from Shangyang Prefecture and Lu Youtian's reply.

Finally they found the four waiters, a laundry woman, a middle-aged woman, and several diners who had eaten at Jinyulou in those days.

From these people, Han Qingyun and others finally pieced together more information.

The noble lady's registered information in Jinyu Tower was Yuanshi.

Yuan Shi was very mysterious. She stayed in the restaurant for four or five days, but no one had ever seen her true face.

She was accompanied by four guards, a maid, and a nanny.

The chief guard's surname was Kong. Apart from being respectful and gentle towards Miss Yuan, his eyes were cold when he looked at others.

Based on Lu Fugui's description, Han Qingyun drew what Kong Haibo looked like before he was disfigured.

The four waiters recognized that the portrait looked very similar to Leader Kong, especially his eyes, which were very cold and sinister.

The image of Nanny Ji drawn by Li Jixin was also recognized by the laundry woman.

Nanny Ji is the nanny beside Miss Yuan.

The nanny had a black mole on the right side of her eyebrow, which was very easy to recognize.

The laundry woman was quite certain that Miss Yuan was pregnant.

Because when she went to deliver the clothes, she heard the nanny crying to Miss Yuan with heartache, saying that Miss Yuan was only fifteen and had encountered such a thing. A woman is too young and giving birth is not good for her health.

But Miss Yuan seemed very happy.

The laundry woman didn't dare to listen too much, because Commander Kong with a cold look came over.

The laundry woman was also certain that Miss Yuan must be from Luocheng, or had been to Luocheng.

She worked as a laundryman in Jinyulou and had met many rich people.

Miss Yuan's inner garment was made of Ruyi Tianxiang soft brocade.

The Ruyi Tianxiang soft brocade can only be woven by Cui's cloth shop in Liyuan County, Anling Prefecture.

This fabric is very expensive, but production is limited and it is only sold in Los Angeles.

A diner said that Miss Yuan did not leave Wuping County after leaving Jinyulou.

Because he later met the maids and guards around Miss Yuan.

The maid had a beautiful appearance and good manners. It was obvious that she was trained by a wealthy family. He was deeply impressed.

He saw them again in June of the following year.

They bought a lot of dry food and seemed to be about to leave. He also heard the maid mention Luocheng.

The middle-aged woman was abducted to feed a premature baby.

Her eyes were covered all day and she couldn't see anything.

But because I can't see, my ears are much more sensitive than usual.

She heard the sound of a young girl crying countless times.

I also heard a man called Kong Tou Ling begging the girl to live, and he said he would avenge the girl.

She breastfed for about ten days.

Chief Kong wanted to kill her, but fortunately the baby's crying saved her.

She was then taken to the carriage and continued to feed the baby.

How could a middle-aged woman, who had a breastfeeding baby at home, be willing to leave with these people?

What's more, once she reaches her destination, she will be useless and will definitely be killed.

The woman used the excuse of going to the toilet and went into the bushes under the supervision of her maid.

She took advantage of the maid's inattention, removed the black cloth covering her eyes, knocked her unconscious with a stone, and ran away...

After these people left with their rewards, Lu Yanyan and others fell silent.

After a long while, Li Jixin finally said, "Captain Kong is Kong Haibo, the nanny is Nanny Ji, and the child is Ji Siyuan. The character Yuan should be taken from Miss Yuan's name."

Lu Changping nodded.

"But who is Miss Yuan? Was there any wealthy family or official with the surname Yuan in Luocheng more than 20 years ago?"

Li Jixin was thinking about the Yuan family, which was well-known in Luocheng.

But none of these Yuan family members could match the girl who had just come of age twenty-three years ago.

"Daughters of wealthy families usually marry at the age of eighteen or nineteen. Could it be that a girl who got pregnant just after reaching the age of marriage is just a girl from an ordinary family, who has learned more etiquette and comes from a wealthy family?"

Yang Li put forward his own views.

Zhao Xingwu immediately nodded in agreement: "Yang Li is right."

Wang Xiao disagreed, as his family used to run a cloth shop.

"I heard from my father that Ruyi Tianxiang Soft Brocade only appeared in the fifteenth year of Emperor Huiren's reign."

"In the first few years after I came out, it was hard to find a place like that. You can't buy it just by having money."

"What's more, Miss Yuan actually made Ruyi Tianxiang Soft Brocade into her lining, which means this kind of fabric is very common to her. She must not be the daughter of an ordinary family."

The most important point is that Kong Haibo was by his side at that time.

Kong Haibo, who has the ability to become the head of Emperor Zhaowen's secret guards, is willing to stay with the woman.

That woman's identity is definitely not simple.

The scene fell silent again.

Lu Yanyan silently calculated the time and thought about what she had heard before. She didn't dare to believe her own conclusion, but after thinking about it, it could only be that person...
