Lv Wen Hao kept his promise. Early in the morning the next day, when Yao Dan Qing was still drowsily reporting to his, Lv Wen Hao was already waiting outside General's Estate. She slowly got up, and secretly thought that Lv Wen Hao was really active.

He did not need to go to court early today, since it was not too early for Pei Sheng, but he was awoken by the sound of Yao Dan Qing standing up. He laid on the bed, watching her change his clothes and wash up.

"Xiaoqing, do you believe in me?" Pei Sheng suddenly said something that had no beginning and no end.

Yao Dan Qing turned her head around in confusion, she stared at Pei Sheng, "Originally, I planned to ask you this question, but now you've snatched it away."

Hearing this, Pei Sheng sighed somewhat helplessly, and flipped over. "In these three months, I will let go of this matter to let you investigate. I will definitely not interfere. But three months later … You must guarantee that you will not interfere. Everything will be handed over to the Ministry of Justice and to the imperial government. "

Yao Dan Qing said: "But what if the imperial government fails to investigate?"

Pei Sheng said: "If even the imperial government could not find it, you will not be able to."

"I don't believe that there will be no traces at all in such a huge murder case. I always believe that no matter how meticulous the layout is, there will always be a loophole." Yao Dan Qing said as she tidied herself up, picked up her backpack and walked out, "A Sheng, trust me, we will definitely find the real culprit, wait for me to come back."

Pei Sheng looked at her deeply, wanting to say something but hesitating. In the end, he nodded and said, "Go, wait for your return."

Yao Dan Qing walked out of the house, and saw that there were three people waiting outside. This time, Pei Sheng specifically ordered the three people to not move an inch away from his, in order to protect her safety in Qingzhou. Chi Yuan, Lei, and another maid that he had never seen before, dressed in blue clothes and holding onto a long sword, had a haughty look on his face.

"Madame, I am Piao Xu. I have come under the orders of the general to protect your safety." She reported her identity neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Lei Zhi then took the bag from Zi Yu's hands and reported in a low voice: "Madame, the butler reported that this time he will be traveling with her Madame as well."

Yao Dan Qing was a little surprised, why did Duan Shao even try to interfere, and even bring Madame along? But when he saw Lei Zhi's flickering gaze, he asked: "So what?"

Lei Zhi stammered, "Back then, Senior Duan … "He had to break off the engagement …"

Hearing that, Chi Yuan coughed lightly, signalling for Lei Zhi to stop talking further. Although everyone knew, speaking in front of the Madame was still not good, at least.

Yao Dan Qing looked at the weird expressions on the two of their faces and chuckled dryly. It was really great, the two men who abandoned her previously were going to investigate the case with her, would others think that they would be ridiculing her?

After exiting the General's Estate, seeing the two carriages parked outside the General's Estate, for a moment, the atmosphere was a little cold.

Jiang Che looked at Yao Dan Qing who was standing outside the palace without moving, and then went up and asked: "Madame, please get in the carriage."

"No, I'll ride." Yao Dan Qing said, and then brought a few horses over.

Jiang Che was startled, he did not expect the grand general Madame to actually want to ride her horse to the Qingzhou.

This was the Ferghana Horse that had accompanied Pei Sheng during his many years of battle on the battlefield. He was really generous to actually be willing to bring her to the Qingzhou.

She stretched out her hand to touch Thunder's forehead and said in a low voice, "I have relied on you all the way here." Chi Yuan, Lei Zhi and Piao Xu immediately mounted their horses, waiting for the group to set off for Qingzhou.

Jiang Che turned his head and saw Lv Wen Hao opening the curtain of the carriage.

Yao Dan Qing stared at Lv Wen Hao's calm expression, and thought to herself: Why is she acting like a lackey, I want to join in the fun too!

On the other hand, Duan Shao, who was sitting in the other carriage, revealed a surprised smile, while the eyes of the Madame Xia Jing Yu, who was sitting in the same carriage as him, were filled with curiosity as he asked curiously: "This Mrs. Pei is Yao Dan Qing?" As he said that, he secretly pulled open a corner of the carriage curtain, and carefully sized up Yao Dan Qing who was proudly riding on her horse, with a valiant demeanor.

Duan Shao said with a regretful smile, "I didn't expect that after taking a few turns, she would still return … Back then, Lieutenant Lutai almost ruined our plans for her. "

"You're referring to the matter of you and Yao Dan Qing annulling the engagement that year?" Xia Jing more or less knew about it.

Duan Shao nodded, his mood was suddenly unusually good. He held Xia Jing Yu's hand and asked: "All these years, Lv Wen Hao's way of doing things has become more vicious, good thing Yao Dan Qing is back now, what do you think Lv Wen Hao is doing to her?"

"Ever since I heard that he spoke up for Yao Dan Qing in the throne room, it can be seen that he treated her very differently. Now, in order to investigate the annihilation of the entire Yao Family, he actually set aside many matters related to the capital and personally went to the Qingzhou. It can be seen that he has deep feelings for her. It's a pity that he managed to push Yao Dan Qing to Pei Sheng's side, but now he has to put in all his effort to redeem his scarred feelings … " Xia Jing Yu sighed when he said that.

"So this is a good thing." Duan Shao smiled mysteriously, it was slightly gloomy and cold.

"Good news?"

"The scariest thing in the world is a person without a weakness, and now Lv Wen Hao has a weakness …" Duan Shao did not continue, and only sunk into his own thoughts.

Xia Jing Yu did not disturb her, he only put down the curtain and held Duan Shao's hand, his eyes filled with tranquility.

Very quickly, Jiang Che brought a horse to replace the carriage. Lv Wen Hao elegantly jumped on the horse dressed in white, and looked at him intently, asking in a low voice: "We're going to the Qingzhou to investigate the case. Why is Duan Shao following us?"

Lv Wen Hao said: "Duan Shao's Madame Xia Jing Yu just happened to return to Qingzhou's Xia Mansion to visit her parents."

It was only then that Yao Dan Qing remembered Duan Shao's identity as a Madame.

"Intentionally?" Lv Wen Hao did not understand.

Yao Dan Qing snorted: "Two men who abandoned me to investigate with me, didn't they want to embarrass me?"

Hearing his sincerity, Yao Dan Qing waved his hand: "I was just joking, I didn't mind about this kind of things a long time ago."

Lv Wen Hao curled the corner of his mouth, and did not speak any further.

Yao Dan Qing changed the topic and asked: "These few days, I have been thinking about why would you rush back to save me when you said that the annihilation of the Yao Family sect had nothing to do with you?"

Hearing that, Lv Wen Hao's eyes turned cold, and said: "I received a secret letter, it told me that the Yao Family is in danger, quickly go and rescue them."

Yao Dan Qing's hand that was holding the reins tightened, and immediately asked: "Who sent the secret letter?"

"I don't know."

"If the person who sent this letter wanted to save Yao Family, why would he send it to you instead of reporting it to Crown Prince? Back then, everyone knew that the Lu Family and the Yao Family were political enemies, why would the messenger be so sure that you would definitely come to rescue them when he received the letter? "

Lv Wen Hao said with a deeper meaning: "Maybe, the person who delivered the letter isn't trying to save the entire Yao Family."

Yao Dan Qing was shocked and asked in a low voice, "Could it be … Just wanted you to rescue me? "

Lv Wen Hao smiled faintly. He had thought about these mysteries for a long time as well, but unfortunately, they had still turned into mysteries.

"The messenger knows that you and I …" As Yao Dan Qing spoke till here, she stopped. Countless thoughts quickly flashed through her mind, but she could not think of who had delivered this letter, and even knew of the relationship between her and Lv Wen Hao.

She had buried the relationship she had with Lv Wen Hao very deeply, and almost no one knew who it was and why they had saved her. If he wanted to save her, why didn't he personally make a move and inform Lv Wen Hao, who was far away in the northwest?

As a result, on the way to Qingzhou, Yao Dan Qing kept thinking about these things, to the point where she could not eat, but she still did not have a clue.



When they arrived at Qingzhou, they were invited into the mansion by the Governor of the two rivers, Xia Yan, and arranged for a feast to be held to welcome Lv Wen Hao. However, Xia Yan who was at the table continuously toasted his, and when she spoke to him, it was as if they could no longer hold themselves back.

"I still remember seeing you a few years ago. You're still so tall, and in the blink of an eye, many years have passed, but I never would have thought that you would have the chance to meet Shen Lian's daughter. They are gone, and I can only recall their voices and smiles. " When Xia Yan said till here, his eyes became slightly red, and he had a very deep feeling about it.

"Father and Mother's spirits are in heaven. If he knew that there was an old friend who missed them so much, he would definitely be able to be at ease."

Xia Yan asked: "Why didn't you seek refuge with the Xia Clan when the annihilation of the Yao Family occurred?"

Yao Dan Qing answered truthfully: "Father told me to go to Jiangzhou."

Xia Yan shook his head with a sad smile: "Such a good Yao Cong Xing, he is still brooding over me. Back then, wasn't it because we snatched Shen Lian away from him? But in the end, Shen Lian still married him, causing this chasm to remain unbroken for so many years, refusing to trust me even when I was on the verge of death … "

"Dad, you drank too much." Xia Jing Yu reminded him in a low voice that he should pay attention to the situation.

Xia Yan stared at Yao Dan Qing for a good long while, before sighing lightly. "Since you have come to the Qingzhou to investigate this case, I will definitely give my all."

Yao Dan Qing expressed her gratitude: "Thank you, Leader Xia."

"Call me Uncle Xia." Xia Yan corrected him with a smile.

At this time, Xia Ying Fei, who was quietly sitting to the side, let out a cold snort: "Mrs. Pei is the same as your mother, they have good methods."

With Xia Ying Fei's words, everyone's faces changed. Xia Yan immediately became angry: "Immediately apologize to Dan Qing!"

Xia Ying Fei did not fear Xia Yan's anger at all, and looked at him with a cold smile, "Could it be that what I said was wrong? I was originally abandoned by the Lieutenant Lutai and married Pei Sheng in a few months, and now I can sit at the same table as the Lieutenant Lutai. "Just like your mother. Back then, when you swatted my blade, you almost broke apart my father and mother. You truly are a foxy girl in your family."
