“I’m afraid it won’t do. The imperial edict mentioned you two, so you have to go-

“Besides, don’t you want to eliminate your sinful statuses? This is the best opportunity to do so.” Although Manager Liu didn’t outright mention the absoluteness of this mandate, his tone made it certain.

The couple knew they couldn’t hide from it, so they nodded.

When she sent him out, Zhou Ying reminded Manager Liu, “After entering the capital, winter should be starting, so we must bring more straw and other things to keep the carriage warm. Otherwise, the frozen sweet potatoes won’t be able to be used as seeds.”

“Alright, I’ll be careful.” Manager Liu nodded solemnly and then rushed to the manor.

After dinner, they took a piece of beef and went to their old house. Madam Qiao, who had just put down her bowl, looked at the meat in their hands and was a little confused. Why did they send meat at such a time?

But she didn’t ask much. “Oh, you guys are here. Have you eaten? If you haven’t eaten, come and eat together.”

“We came after eating.” Gu Chengrui handed the meat to Mrs. Guo, who had stood up.

Then, he told them that they would enter the capital to receive a reward. “1 don’t know when I’ll be back from the capital, so 1 came to tell you in advance.”

“This is great news. Maybe we can take the opportunity to return to the capital.” Mrs. Liu immediately smiled when she heard that.

“You think so? Do you think it’s good to return to the capital without any power or influence?” Father Gu replied unhappily.

He sighed and continued, “There’s nothing you can do to stop this trip.”

“Since you two are going with the Third Prince, be sure to follow him and not act on your own.

“In addition, you must be careful of the First Prince’s people and stay away from the Fourth Prince’s men. Staying alive is more important than anything else.”

“Also, the Empress has always been at odds with Princess Ping Yang. Naturally, she wants to eliminate our Gu family as soon as possible. Try not to get in touch with her if possible.” Second Uncle Gu echoed.

Madam Qiao nodded in agreement. “Indeed, the capital is a sinkhole. You must be careful.

“If there’s something you can’t avoid, look for Concubine An.

“I saved her life when 1 was young, and we got along quite well.

“She and the Empress Dowager are cousins and have always been very close. At a critical moment, she can protect your lives.

“However, you can’t use it simply because it’s likely that she will do what you ask her to do to repay this debt.”

“Why didn’t you use it when we were kicked out?” Mrs. Liu asked indignantly.

If they had used it back then, would they even have lived such a miserable life in this remote place?

“Do you think Concubine An would dare defy an imperial edict? If the Emperor wants to sack us out, it would be useless even if we have the Empress Dowager on our side.” Madam Qiao answered unhappily.

She hesitated and continued, “When you reach the capital, go to the Ministry of Revenue’s Yang family and see your aunt and see how she’s doing.

“If…

“If they’re not doing well, bring them back.”

“Also, that uncle of yours is on the First Prince’s side. You must be careful.” Father Gu quickly added.

“I understand. If it doesn’t work out, we’ll bring Auntie back.” Gu Chengrui nodded.

After that, they chatted for a while more. However, most of the time, it was Father Gu and Second Uncle Gu a.n.a.lyzing the capital’s political situation.

Zhou Ying also knew that her “father,” Headmaster Zhou, was the father-in-law of the Fourth Prince on the surface but sided with the Emperor.

After chatting for a while, the two bade farewell.

When they returned home, the village had already quieted down. They locked their doors and brought Er Zhuang into the inters.p.a.ce.

After finis.h.i.+ng the work in her inters.p.a.ce, Zhou Ying took the opportunity to put all the fish, aged about a year old, into the river outside the village, then began packing her luggage..
