Before Shao Jingheng and Chu Yunyan came over, Chu Zhaoci had just finished explaining another matter to the secret guard who had returned from the official mission.

As soon as the secret guards left with their front legs, they came with their rear legs.

Chu Junyan hadn't seen Chu Zhaoci for a long time, and she was stunned when they saw each other again.

Chu Zhaoci was fine.

Shao Jingheng told him a few days ago that Chu Yunyan came to Yifeng City. Originally, he wanted to see it.

But he was persuaded by Shao Jingheng.

Chu Zhaoci has a special status, and he may be exposed if he goes to the town rashly.

Moreover, Chu Yunyan was injured by those people. Those people must be looking for him in the dark, and they may have found him at this moment.

It's just that they want to play a long game to catch big fish...

That’s why it didn’t appear!

Therefore, when he came to see Chu Zhaoci today, Shao Jingheng asked Chu Yunyan to change his appearance.

This ensures relative safety.

Chu Yunyan's eyes instantly became moist.

He said in a trembling voice, "You, are you really still alive?!"

Chu Zhaoci was not surprised that he would ask this.

All the guards accompanying him were killed, and people in Kyoto probably thought he was also killed, so that's good!

On the contrary, he is safe.

That is, he still has a question.

"Did everyone in Kyoto think I was in trouble?"

Chu Yunyan understood what he meant and took the initiative to explain to him, "Your Majesty told father that you will not leave Beijing until the day after tomorrow..."

"Father wants me to go with you in the future."

"Unexpectedly, you left the capital the next day. It happened to be not the day of the meeting, so we didn't know you left the capital."

"And when I left the capital to look for you, you had already encountered the assassin. I followed the route you took to avoid..."

"But I was misled by a group of people."

"The more I pursue you, the farther away I am."

"So, I didn't know about all of your assassinations at first!"

"It was only when I came near Yifeng City and received the letter that my father had sent me that I learned about your affairs!"

"But I don't believe it!"

"I went into Yifeng City alone to check, and you should know the result!"

As a result, he was chased by those people and almost lost his life. Fortunately, he saved his life when he met Hua Xiaonian and Shao Jingheng.

This explanation is quite reasonable.

Chu Zhao resigned.

Of course, the main reason was that he asked the secret guards to investigate Chu Yunyan's affairs, which was exactly what he said.

They are still on the mountain now.

Chu Zhaoci looked around to make sure there was no one else, then asked, "I need you to help me with something!"

Chu Yunyan knew a long time ago that he would let her do things.

Moreover, he had already heard from Shao Jingheng that if Chu Zhaoci wanted him to do something, he would just reach out and say it.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

It's a ledger.

The two account books that Chu Zhaoci found in the secret room had been verified by him, and the real account books were indeed evidence of those people's crimes.

And fake account books are also evidence.

You must know that the account books at the border are turned over to the court every quarter, and the account book handed over must be the same as the fake account book.

So, this is all evidence.

In addition, after arriving at the border, Chu Zhaoci also asked the secret guards to investigate several other account books in the hands of the soldiers, and now they are all in his hands.

He took it out of his arms and handed it directly to Chu Yunyan.

He gave him his hand and said, "Thank you, brother."

Chu Yunyan rarely hears him call her this way, but whenever he calls her this way, it must be a very important matter.

He immediately responded, "Don't worry!"

Although Shao Jingheng has been taking care of Chu Yunyan in recent days, he has never asked about Chu Yunyan's identity. Chu Yunyan thought that Chu Zhaoci would tell him, so he did not specifically say it.

Until Shao Jingheng suddenly asked after they finished speaking.

"So, you are the crown prince?"

Only then did Chu Yunyan realize that you still don’t know his identity.

He hesitated for a moment and responded, "My father is the seventh child!"

Then he looked at Chu Zhaoci opposite him, and then added a few words, "Zhao Ci's mother was once kind to his father, and we have a good relationship in private."

Yes, the Seventh Prince's Mansion and Chu Zhaoci have always interacted in private.

Because the emperor did not like Chu Zhaoci, and as the royal family, the most taboo thing for them was to form cliques with the emperor's sons.

Even if there is kindness, it will not work.

After all, emperors have been the most suspicious since ancient times.

If the Seventh Prince's Palace and Chu Zhaoci openly had a friendly relationship, it would be harmful to both the Seventh Prince's Palace and Chu Zhaoci.

Shao Jingheng naturally knows this truth.

He didn't ask any more questions and nodded slightly.

Chu Junyan should not stay here for a long time, so he carefully stuffed the account book into his jacket pocket and told Chu Zhaoci to be careful.

After that, he left.

Chu Zhaoci couldn't send him off in person, but he was afraid that he would be unsafe on the road, so he asked a few secret guards to go with him.

Of course, I also have to tell Chu Yunyan, "Brother, be careful!"

Chu Yunyan nodded, "Don't worry."

After that, he said goodbye and left.

Chu Zhaoci looked at Chu Yunyan's leaving figure, his dark eyes flashing with uneasiness.

It was actually Shao Jingheng who reminded Chu Yunyan to go back and deliver the account books.

This is what Shao Jingheng said.

"Think about it, Chu Yunyan was chased from Kyoto by himself. Those people may have known about him coming out of Kyoto."

"But they didn't find Chu Yunyan on the road."

"Even Chu Yunyan came to Yifeng City a long time ago, and those people only caught him a long time later. What does that mean?"

"It shows that he has something extraordinary."

"It's like the art of disguise."

As long as he doesn't stay in the same area for a long time and uses the disguise technique to constantly change his appearance, it will be difficult for those people to find him.

Chu Zhaoci thought it made sense.

Only then did he agree to Chu Yunyan go back and deliver the account books!

Shao Jingheng walked to Chu Zhaoci and comforted him, saying, "Don't worry!"

Chu Zhaoci turned around and looked at him.

I actually saw a reassuring firmness in Shao Jingheng’s eyes!

He nodded, "Yeah."

Chu Junyan's figure gradually disappeared from sight. Chu Zhaoci turned around and continued to bundle firewood, and Shao Jingheng followed him.

The two bundled firewood and returned home.

The villagers of Xingshan Village have been in Anping Village for more than half a month, and the houses on the other side of the open space have already been built.

Hua Xiaonian's brothers helped the village plant the land and then went to build houses.

The foundation of the house has now been built.

It won't take long for the frame to rise.
