After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

In the previous life, it started to snow heavily two days before New Year's Eve, and it continued for several days. Not only other towns were severely affected, but even the Imperial City was also greatly affected.

Houses collapsed and people suffered from the cold. The originally lively first month was finally enveloped in a cold disaster.

Later, the people in the imperial city who were affected by the disaster and the refugees who poured in caused a lot of troubles. This lasted for nearly three months, and the imperial city was in chaos.

Feeling the heat on the back of her hand, Chu Huanyan came back to her senses.

Xiao Jinzhi looked at her seriously, "What's wrong?"

Yan Yan's expression suddenly became so serious. What was she thinking of?

Chu Huanyan thought for a while, shook her head and said, "It's nothing. It's just that when I was passing by on the street a few days ago, I accidentally heard a few old men talking about it, saying that this winter is going to be difficult."

"Are you having a hard time?" Xiao Jinzhi frowned.

"Yes." Chu Huanyan nodded, "From what they said, they probably think this winter will be very cold and there may be a natural disaster."

"That's strange. When I went to the Qintian Prison before, the officials from the Qintian Prison said that based on observations, it was a mild winter this year."

Chu Huanyan was stunned, Nuan Dong?

But she remembered that when the cold disaster broke out in her last life, she heard rumors that the Qintian Monitor had detected unusual weather conditions and severe cold in winter. Was this rumor wrong, or was it that the weather had changed?

"If you are worried, I will go to the Qintian Prison tomorrow to confirm with them. It is just the beginning of winter. If it is really observed that there will be severe cold weather, it should be too late to make some preparations in advance." Xiao Jinzhi said. He held Chu Huanyan's hand and comforted her.

Although he didn't know the reason, seeing Chu Huanyan's serious expression made Xiao Jinzhi pay attention to it.

Chu Huanyan nodded in agreement and said no more.

First of all, she is not sure now whether everything will be like the last life.

Secondly, after all, natural disasters cannot be prevented by human power. It is useless to say more for the time being. On the contrary, it is suspected of spreading rumors to cause panic.

But fortunately, if it is like the last life, there is still time to plan and prepare in advance.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of the Hou Mansion, it was already getting late, and Xiao Jinzhi had no intention of staying any longer. But at this moment, new news came from the Prince's Mansion.

In the carriage, Chu Huanyan looked at the news on the paper and her breathing became heavy.

"If we go by what is said above, the grandson of the imperial court order at that time may still be alive."

After leaving the Han family last time, she and Xiao Jinzhi carefully checked those people who were related to the late emperor's affairs. Finally, they found that those palace officials who might know the truth had either made mistakes and been killed or encountered... In an accident, they all lost their lives.

However, the imperial hospital commander at that time left the palace safely, but he encountered bandits on his way home. His entire family died tragically, leaving only one grandson, Jiang Zhou, whose whereabouts are unknown.

Although the investigation was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, Xiao Jinzhi still sent people to the Jiang family's place of origin to see if there could be any clues.

It turned out that over the years, people have been quietly paying respects to the Jiang family cemetery every anniversary of his death.

"If it is really Jiang Zhou, the fact that he has not shown up in these years means that he at least knows that the death of his family was not an accident. He is deliberately concealing his identity." Xiao Jinzhi took the paper from Chu Huanyan's hand and stared at the news on it. "But judging from this, the time for worship has passed this year."

Otherwise, you can try your luck and send someone to keep an eye on the Jiang family cemetery secretly.

"As long as people are alive, there is hope. There is no need to rush." ​​Chu Huanyan said.

In fact, she didn't even know what to do after she found out the truth.

If it was as they suspected, would Xiao Jinzhi really want to expose the emperor's crime in public? Or maybe it was her who revealed it and Xiao Jinzhi pretended not to know?

No, Xiao Jinzhi would not agree to this.

It was getting late, and after confirming with Xiao Jinzhi that extra manpower would be sent to continue secretly investigating Jiang Zhou's whereabouts, Chu Huanyan got up and got off the carriage without any further delay.

The moment she was about to lift the curtain, she stopped and turned to look at Xiao Jinzhi.

"Can't bear to leave me?" Xiao Jinzhi smiled with eyes blazing.

"That's not true." Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows slightly, "I just want to tell His Highness that I have long felt that I was ruthless, bloodthirsty and cruel. It was just my misunderstanding and illusion at the beginning. His Highness the Crown Prince... is really a very good person. people."

It was so good that even though she didn't know what happened in her previous life, she was extremely sure at this moment that the rumors were definitely wrong!

Xiao Jinzhi's eyes sparkled, "Rather than this evaluation, I want to hear Yan Yan say that she thinks I am a very good husband."

Chu Huanyan raised her lips, "You won't know until you get married."

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Jinzhi to speak, she quickly opened the curtain and got out of the carriage.

"Haha..." Joyous laughter came from the carriage. After a long time, Xiao Jinzhi asked Qin Li to drive back home.

Back at the Prince's Mansion, it was already approaching Haishi. Xiao Jinzhi did not rest, but went to the study, took out a large wooden box, and carefully took out the cloak inside.

The bright red brocade cloak has white fox fur inlaid on the collar, without any impurities.

He carefully selected it for a long time, and finally selected this one two days ago.

"Your Highness, when do you plan to give it to Miss Chu?" Qin Li asked, looking at His Highness.

"Wait until it snows first this winter." Xiao Jinzhi said, looking at the cloak.

"What if it doesn't snow this year?" Qin Li said subconsciously.

Feeling the glare from His Highness, Qin Li touched his nose guiltily and quickly made up for it.

"My subordinate just said casually that it will definitely snow. When the first snow falls, His Highness will give the cloak to Miss Chu. Miss Chu will be very happy."

"Will you?" Xiao Jinzhi looked at the cloak in front of him, "But Gu always feels that something is missing."

"Is it missing?" Qin Li scratched his head and looked at the cloak that he had chosen out of thousands, "I think it's pretty good," he said.

Xiao Jinzhi thought for a while, and after a moment he told Qin Li, "Go get some needle and thread."

"Ah?" Qin Li was stunned, "Your Highness, what do you want needlework for?"

Isn't this cloak in good condition? There's nothing that needs repairing.

"Just go if I ask you to. There are so many words to do."

"Yes." Qin Li quickly went to find some needle and thread.

Xiao Jinzhi selected for a long time, and finally selected the golden silk thread. While Qin Li was stunned, he began to thread the needle and thread, planning to embroider words on the inside of the cloak.

"Your Highness, have you really thought about it?" Seeing that His Highness was about to drop the needle, Qin Li couldn't help but say, "You are His Highness the Crown Prince. It would be too strange for others to know that you are embroidering here!"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinzhi also hesitated, "There does seem to be something wrong."

Qin Li breathed a sigh of relief and was about to suggest finding an embroiderer, when Xiao Jinzhi said something else.

"After all, I have never embroidered before. If the embroidery is too ugly, it will ruin the cloak."

Qin Li: "..." So this is the focus of His Highness?

"You go and find some cloth for me, so I can practice first."

Qin Li: "..."

"By the way, let's find another embroidery girl to come over. I want to learn from it."

Qin Li: "..."
