The escape system takes me to dig for treasures

Seeing that General Wu was unmoved, the Fourth Prince and his staff prepared themselves mentally before they arrived.

So they tested him. They could choose not to take sides, but they also could not fight against other princes.

General Wu remained loyal to the emperor.

After receiving General Wu's assurance, the Fourth Prince left the Wu household with his staff.

After seeing the two men off, General Wu, exhausted as he was, went straight back to his room without even eating.

Mrs. Wu saw this and asked, "Did the person leave?"

General Wu nodded, and Madam Wu continued, "What are they here for?"

The couple never hid things from each other, so they told his wife the purpose of the Fourth Prince's visit and also warned Madam Wu.

"No matter what you come for or what you give them, you must not accept it!" If you accept it, you won't be able to explain yourself.

General Wu said seriously.

Madam Wu said, "Don't worry! I understand this truth, but the emperor is still in good health now, and they started to make small moves right under his nose."

General Wu's frown finally relaxed slightly.

He did not respond to Mrs. Wu's words. He undressed, stuffed his clothes into Mrs. Wu's hands, and went back to the bed.

Seeing how tired he looked, Mrs. Wu felt a little distressed. She turned around to hang up the clothes, and the man on the bed started snoring.

Mrs. Wu turned around and tiptoed out, instructing the servants to prepare food so that General Wu could eat as soon as he woke up.

Jiang Xi found out the identity information of the person Song Zhaocheng asked her to investigate.

Song Zhaocheng found it a little unbelievable because the Fourth Prince was the least noticeable among all the princes and his mother died when he was ten years old.

Besides, even if she hadn't died, Concubine Yun wasn't very favored.

Yun Fei's mother's family did not hold high positions in the court, and the highest official position they held was only a fourth-rank official.

How dare the Fourth Prince act so blatantly? He has no chance of winning if he competes with the other princes.

Song Zhaocheng, Mrs. Song, and Jiang Xi looked at the information they had investigated and discussed it. The three of them were very puzzled.

"Is Yun Ting's assassination this time really related to the Fourth Prince?"

Mrs. Song asked hesitantly.

As soon as she heard the news, Mrs. Song wanted to pick up a gun and go to the Fourth Prince to demand justice for her son.

In the end, he was stopped by Song Zhaocheng.

"We need to investigate this matter further. We need to get justice back, but we can't let others use us as a tool."

The Dali Temple Minister was sent by the Emperor to investigate the assassination of Song Yunting. It was natural for Song Zhaocheng to follow the Dali Temple Minister to investigate the incident.

Jiang Xi continued to follow the clues of the Fourth Prince's staff.

Following the clues, Jiang Xi discovered that the other party was taking the Fourth Prince to move among various powerful officials and win over the wealthy and powerful.

His actions were so obvious that the other princes who had been sitting still began to get restless.

Two months ago, there was an assassin in the Mansion of Duke Rong. It was finally discovered that it was a case of corruption and abuse of power. As the prince's in-laws, the prince was implicated in this scandal and had his title stripped away by Guo.

Otherwise, these princes would not dare to have any evil thoughts.

The entire capital was shocked by the punishment of the crown prince. After all, the crown prince had been in office for nearly ten years.

The length of time and the stability of the position made many princes lose the desire to fight.

Suddenly the prince was taken down, and both his older brother and younger brother became restless.

Although after analyzing it, I feel that Song Yunting's assassination was probably not caused by the Fourth Prince, it is obvious that he was involved in the struggle for the crown prince position.

Jiang Xi asked Xie Kui and others to help track the aide for nearly a month. For the first half of the month, the aide had been accompanying the Fourth Prince everywhere to show his goodwill to the ministers.

Later, the aide actually ran to a temple in the suburbs to burn incense.

Xie Kui followed and found something was wrong. When the bearded aide came out, Xie Kui did not follow him.

Instead, he went into the temple to check.

Because there has been no results for several days in a row, and Xie Kui and his team have to follow up on the investigation these days, so it is possible that they will not come back at night.

Therefore, Jiang Xi did not notice Xie Kui's abnormality until five days later, when he found Xie Kui and asked about the results of the investigation.

It was already mid-November and the capital had been experiencing heavy snow for three consecutive days. The snow outside made a crunching sound when stepped on.

As soon as she returned to the yard, Zhao poured out the warm water on the stove. She sat next to the stove while doing needlework and sewing stuffed dolls at home, and boiling water.

Holding the bowl, he handed it to Jiang Xi, "It's cold outside, right? Do you want to go out this afternoon?"

Zhao asked about Jiang Xi with concern.

Since Song Yunting was unmarried, Song Zhaocheng and his wife used this as an excuse to hold a simple funeral, only notifying his closest relatives and not even allowing other colleagues to come.

Zhao also felt sorry for her daughter.

Looking at Jiang Xi holding the tea bowl, Zhao Shi hesitated for half a month, and finally couldn't help asking, "Ah Li, Yun Ting is also buried, your marriage is over, and we have nothing to do with the Song family anymore. Is it inappropriate to continue living in the Song family?"

Jiang Xi put down his tea bowl as if he had expected it, and nodded, "We've found a yard. We'll clean it up in the next few days and then we can move out!"

Zhao didn't expect that Jiang Xi had already made arrangements. She had been worrying for nothing for the past half month.

Hearing Jiang Xi's words, Zhao groaned and quickly prepared to pack her luggage.

After only two steps, he suddenly turned around and said, "Ali!"

Zhao looked at her daughter hesitantly and said, "Ali, if we move away, will your father, Abai, and Tieniu be unable to study in the Song Mansion in the future?"

Zhao didn't understand the ins and outs of studying, but from the daily conversations of the three men in the family, she understood that the resources of the Song family were not easily found outside.

Originally, they had the support of the Song family, so they could go to the Song family school and study there.

Now that we're moving away, we'll probably leave together.

She said this because she wanted to see if Jiang Xi had any other plans.

Sure enough, Jiang Xi nodded after hearing this, "Mom, don't worry, Madam Song agreed to let the three of them continue to study here. Anyway, it won't take more than a month, and we should be going home soon."

What Zhao was worried about were only the visible things around her. Seeing that she had no worries, she quickly packed her luggage.

Jiang Xi looked at Zhao's back, but was a little absent-minded.

The original plan was to return to Yunzhou City before mid-December, but now it is a little uncertain.
