Bai Jingzhi and his companions took the land route to Yuzhou, and if they traveled at full speed it would take them four or five days longer than by sea.

After entering the city of Yuzhou, Bai Zhao watched his daughter getting off the carriage with an expression that was hard to describe.

"Dad, what do you mean? Do you look down on me? I suffered a lot in my life, too."

The carriage entered a large mansion, and Bai Jingzhi met his father's eyes as soon as he got off the carriage.

When I was doing research, I went to even the most remote places.

"Come in first, be careful, there may be ears on the other side of the wall." Wei Liu walked up to the father and daughter, whispered, and looked around at the same time.

They rented this house, which was very close to Prince Xian's Palace.

"Have you met with the Second Master? Do you have any news about my uncle? Was it him who conspired with Concubine Lian in the incident in Lingzhou?"

After Bai Jingzhi entered the room, he asked a series of questions.

"We don't know these for now. Your uncle hasn't shown up safely, so we can't fall out with him." Wei Liu watched Wei Zhong grow up, and this time he put his safety first.

"Let's not talk about these for now. I don't know what happened at Prince Xian's mansion. The second master went there and never came out again."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Bai Zhao hurried to mediate, "I heard that Prince Xian asked to establish a crown prince, but the eldest son returned home, and the family is not at peace."

"First, find uncle's whereabouts. Let's ignore the previous things for now. Prince Xian may not know what the Second Master did. If you reveal some information to Prince Xian, he will naturally punish the Second Master."

Bai Jingzhi expressed her thoughts, she didn't want to stay here for long.

The Nameless Royal City is still under construction, so she can't leave for too long.

If it weren't for the news about the Wei family's treasure, she would rather go back to study plants.

After she put the improved grain seeds and other crop seeds into Dazhuang Dynasty, her debt of merit was almost repaid.

"Is there any news about the Wei family's collection?" Bai Jingzhi thought that the Wei family had a deep foundation, and if it was transported to the second master's house, there would definitely be some movement.

"We've asked around, but haven't heard anything." Wei Liu also thought of this, but unfortunately there was no useful information.

"Have you ever been to the suburbs or the mountains? Does the second master have a villa outside the city?" Bai Jingzhi asked again.

“No, but we didn’t search the forest. We were being watched the whole time, so it was difficult for us to take action.” Wei Liu’s face darkened after he finished speaking.

The second master has been sending people to keep an eye on them since they met, and there are also two forces secretly following them, so they dare not act rashly.

"Dad, take the people from the escort agency and search the mountain. If you find anything, notify me immediately."

Bai Jingzhi gave Bai Zhao a look, and he nodded knowingly.

"Cousin, you stay in Yuzhou City and let my father go."

Their group is bound to attract attention, so they naturally have to be careful. It is understandable that the escort left.

Besides, if they encounter danger here, they can ask her father to take them out of the space.

"Let Third Uncle go in my place? Or let's change someone else. My martial arts have improved a lot—" It was Bai Cangzhi's first time to escort the escort with him, and the novelty was not over yet.

"Just follow the arrangements and follow your sister to gain more experience." Bai Zhao glared at Bai Cangzhi, who didn't dare to say anything else.

Prince Xian’s Palace.

"Sir, a group of people went to that yard, all riding tall and strong horses. There was also a long and wide carriage, which didn't look impressive on the outside, but was actually very fast."

Changbo replied in a low voice.

Jiang Zhu sat in a wooden wheelchair, with the mask off his face. "Could it be that he came from Wujiyuan?"

"I don't know for now. After they entered the yard, they went back to their room and I didn't have time to see their faces clearly." Changbo said truthfully.

"Could it be Bai Jingzhi who is here?" Jiang Zhu stood up from his wheelchair. "Could it be that he is here for Wei Zhong?"

"Sir, please sit down quickly." Chang Bo hastily advised, "Our courtyard is under close surveillance."

They arrived in Yuzhou just three days ago.

In just these few days, the young master has done a lot of things.

The news that Prince Xian's eldest son was disabled spread throughout the entire Yuzhou City that same day.

The next day after they returned, the young man's fiancée's family came to cancel the engagement.

The young master's younger sister and her future husband's family also came to cancel the engagement.

Their engagements were broken off one after another.

Zhao and her two children often laughed at the siblings in person.

But even so, the Zhao family did not relax their vigilance and still sent people to monitor their yard.

"It doesn't matter! Even if Zhao suspects, what does it matter? There is no evidence. Her people are all buried in Yanzhou. No matter what she says, how can others believe it?"

Jiang Zhu didn't care. He had already eliminated all of Zhao's people and Hua Guiqing and the others in Yanzhou, leaving no future trouble.

"By the way, how is Jinhua doing? Does Chen Zhang's family agree to the marriage?"

Chen Zhang was Shanyin, and he settled the Jinhua sisters in a small courtyard.

"Even if the palace is the matchmaker, Madam Chen will not agree. Sir, I'm afraid Jinhua will not stand for such an insult."

Changbo always keeps an eye on them.

They took refuge with the young master half a year ago. Jinhua was seriously injured. If the young master had not sent people to pick them up, they might not have been able to reach Yanzhou City safely.

Jiang Zhu never thought of using his power to pressure others, "You can't force marriage. Let's just leave it to fate!"

"Sixteenth Uncle has been settled. Prince Ming and Prince Li will not have a good outcome this time. The Emperor seems to be a little different."

Jiang Zhu had planned early, and all the traps he had laid before had come into play, so he was well-informed.

"This time, the emperor has shown mercy by demoting them to the rank of princes. When all places recover, there will be no peace. By that time, war will break out everywhere, with internal and external troubles, and it will be hard to tell who will win!"

He already knew that the emperor's temperament had changed drastically. He became the same as he was a dozen years ago. He began to become steady and the change was very strange.

If the emperor continues like this, it is hard to say who will win.

Unless...something happens to the Eighth Prince as well.

The emperor's illegitimate son had been assassinated, leaving only the eighth prince.

As far as he knew, Prince Li had been eyeing the emperor covetously, and the assassination of the emperor's illegitimate son should also be related to him.

As for the eighth prince, the situation is not optimistic either.

After the emperor died without an heir, the sons of these princes would go to the capital, ostensibly to select an heir, but in reality to serve as hostages.

"Sir, if Miss Bai comes over, would you like to meet her?"

Changbo asked tentatively.

The young master often looked at the portrait. Seeing the real person was better than seeing the object and remembering the person.

"You are too nosy! Go and interrogate the Wei family. Don't let them have any time. Also, don't let your guard down over there at the Bai family."

After Jiang Zhu sent the people away, he began to daydream.

He has been hesitating whether to go and meet Bai Jingzhi.

There are no worries in Baijingzhi. After a good rest, I go for a stroll on the street.

She only brought Bai Yue'e with her and walked leisurely on the most prosperous street in Yuzhou.

"Who is Wei Dayong with?" Bai Yue'e had good eyesight and saw that Wei Dayong and a slender woman disappeared into the crowd.

"Oh, could it be his sweetheart? No wonder he insisted on following here."

Bai Jingzhi suddenly realized.

She was observing the crowd when a clear female voice came over, "Sister Jingzhi, why are you here?"
