Li Shuangwan knew that her mother had figured out everything: "After you leave the palace, you will go to Prince Heng's mansion tomorrow. Once the funeral is over, you can ask Ling Heng to take back my dowry."

There was an unwritten rule in the Northern Jin Dynasty that when a wife died, if she had children, the dowry could be left to her own children; if she had no children, it had to be returned to the husband's family.

"I told Yizhu before I left. You can go find her. Luo Man is innocent, don't let her see through it. Wait until we leave Shengjing, then tell them the truth."

"Okay, I know you have your own ideas. I will do as you say one by one."

Li Shuangwan nodded: "As for grandpa and grandma, don't let them know for now. Shengjing City is under the feet of the emperor. It looks glamorous on the outside, but it's actually a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. We have to be careful everywhere."

Zhu Anhe didn't want to tell the two elders so early. She had already gone to see her mother. Although she was still very weak, she was no longer in any danger.

Not letting them know is also for their own good.

Shu'er understood her and would not tell anyone from the Zhu Mansion.

Zhu Anhe just felt sorry for her daughter: "In such a short time, you have arranged so many things. It's your mother's fault."

Did she arrange this?

No, it was Gu Xingyan. The road to revenge was so difficult, but he overcame all obstacles and paved a smooth path for him.

"Don't worry, Luo Luo will take care of grandma. Everything will be fine. After these things are done, you can go back to the northwest as soon as possible."

"Okay, let's go back together so that our family of four can be reunited soon. Oh, I haven't seen Lao Ying for almost two months. I miss him so much."

Li Shuangwan lowered her head: "Mom, I have to go on a long journey. I will leave tomorrow night."

She owed her life to someone and had to go find him.

These days I miss him like a flood and a beast, I wish I could grow wings and fly to him.

Zhu Anhe was startled: "Wanwan, where are you going?"

"Mother, don't worry and go back to the northwest. I will take good care of myself. Bring Chen Ping and Yi Zhu, as well as Luo Man, Chen Rong, and the coachman Zhou Bo back. Oh, by the way, Dong Er's maid also needs to come back, as well as her family. Send them to the farm and hand them over to Chen Ping's grandfather."

"No, I'm worried. Wherever you want to go, I'll go with you. Don't worry about other things. I'll pick them up and take care of them."

"Mom, I'm old enough, don't worry, nothing will happen to me."

"How can I feel at ease leaving you alone?" Zhu Anhe wiped her tears secretly again. She knew where her daughter was going. The young man who arranged a new identity for her was actually the ninth prince of Daliang.

She didn't know how the Ninth Prince of Daliang could end up in Northern Jin. She only knew that Wanwan had a hard time during the past few months since she married Ling Heng, and he was the one who had been silently helping her behind the scenes.

She was grateful to such a man, regardless of whether he was from Northern Jin or not.

"Late night..."

"Mom, I have to go to Daliang to find him. He is in danger now. His mother and brother are under house arrest. I am worried about him having to deal with so many people alone."

"Besides, I'm not going alone. Brother Shu and the others will meet me in Cangzhou."

She only dared to tell her mother that she encountered an assassination attempt when she went to the manor last winter, and it was Gu Xingyan who saved her. As for the rest, she was afraid that her mother could not bear the blow, so she did not dare to say more.

When the dust settles, there will always be a day when my mother will know the truth.

Zhu Anhe sighed deeply: "Forget it, go ahead."

"What about Aunt Zhao? She is your wet nurse. You have been attached to her since you were a child. Mother will take her to the northwest with her. If she is willing, she can also take her family with her."

Li Shuangwan's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Mom, why do you think Zhou Caiyao knew what clothes and jewelry I wore on the 16th?"

Zhu Anhe was shocked when he saw the murderous look in his daughter's eyes, and asked hurriedly, "Are you saying that she betrayed you?"

Li Shuangwan wished he could chop Aunt Zhao into pieces and feed her to the dogs.

Not only did she betray her, but in her previous life, she was the one who killed her son and gave Chunning to her, making her raise the son of the murderer for nine years without her knowing.

Her child was so young, she didn't even know whether it was a boy or a girl, and yet someone took her heart's blood. That little kid must have been in great pain.

Nanny Zhao had served him for more than ten years and was very familiar with the General's Mansion. How could the killing of 381 people be without her contribution?

Later, he colluded with Concubine Lin and suffered her bullying during the six months when she was banished to the cold palace.

"Mother, hand this person over to Ling Heng. He will deal with her. Or, he has already killed Ling Heng. You don't need to mention her when you go to Prince Heng's mansion."

Without the hope of saving Chun Ning, Ling Heng would never let Madam Zhao die peacefully.

Zhu Anhe nodded. They would not tolerate betraying slaves around them.

"Then I will go to Prince Heng's Mansion first and pick up Yi Zhu and Chen Ping. You need to let them know about your identity change first. It's not convenient to stay in Prince Heng's Mansion."

Li Shuangwan thought about it and agreed that this was the case, so he nodded.

"Okay, then after you go to Prince Heng's Mansion, go to the palace immediately. When you go to Prince Heng's Mansion to pay homage tomorrow, you and cousin Shu will go together. When Ling Heng saw me today, I found that there was something strange in the way he looked at me. I have to let Ling Heng personally prove that the Zhu Rongshu he saw was Zhu Rongshu."

Ling Heng is too powerful, we have to be on guard against him.

Zhu Anhe also discovered this. If Lu Dongqing hadn't suddenly shouted at everyone to leave, Ling Heng would have found a way to get to the bottom of the matter.

"Who is talking about me?" Zhu Rongsu's voice sounded behind the two of them.

"Cousin Shu." Li Shuangwan stood up and pulled Zhu Rongshu to sit in front of him. "I'm talking about you and mother going to Prince Heng's mansion together tomorrow."

Zhu Rongshu raised her eyebrows and smiled: "I know, just stop Ling Heng from mistaking me for you." She patted her chest generously, "Leave it to me."

They are cousins. Coincidentally, Li Shuangwan's eyes are like her mother Zhu's. Zhu Rongshu's eyes are also inherited from the Zhu family, with big almond eyes that are extremely lively.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside.

Li Shuangwan's martial arts skills have now been almost fully recovered. He lowered his voice and said to the two of them, "It's Xu and Aunt Tong, mother and daughter."

After saying that, he slipped into the inner room.

Sure enough, Xu, Aunt Tong and Li Shuangxi showed up.

Zhu Anhe pretended to be extremely sad and cried in Zhu Rongsu's arms.

Xu's eyes flickered over Zhu Rongshu, and she thought that she was indeed a girl from the Zhu family, and like Zhu, she was born with a seductive look.

Her eyes turned red, and she pulled Zhu up from the chair, hugged her and cried, "Sister-in-law, why is Ah Wan's life so miserable? My poor niece, you are really heartbroken."

If Zhu Anhe had not heard with his own ears the Second House's plot against their family, he would have been moved to tears.

Zhu Rongshu pulled away Xu, who was lying on her mother like a dog, and said, "Second Madam, my aunt is very sad and hasn't had a good sleep for several days. How can she bear it if you are so fat and lie on top of her like a pig?"
