"I wonder if His Highness the Crown Prince has found his subordinates, what orders do they have?" Cui Shilang knew in his heart that Prince Shen pretended to be dead to avoid King Rui's pursuit, and when he suddenly found him, there must be something important for him to do.

If he doesn't help Prince Shen and Prince Shen exposes his date with the maid of the Wang Prefecture today, he will be impeached and his official position will be lost.

Let's see how Prince Shen arranges it.

"This prince wants to expose King Rui's regicide conspiracy, are you willing to accompany me?" Li Shen stared at Cui Shilang for a moment.

Cui Shilang looked up in fear, "Huh?"

Doesn't this cost his life?

"If you don't want to, I won't force you, but I want to remind Mr. Cui that if King Rui knows that you have met with me, do you think King Rui will still believe you?" Li Shen said softly. Raise your eyebrows.

Cui Shilang took a deep breath and said, "Prince Shen, I...I am willing to follow Prince Shen!"

"Look at you, why are you scared? I just want you to do a small favor and tell me about King Rui's secret robbery of grain and troops in Shangzhou four years ago."

Cui Shilang blinked, "Prince..., the Wang Zhifu also knows about this matter, and it was not done by me alone. If there is an explanation from the Wang Zhifu, this matter will be more convincing."

"He has agreed to help the prince, it depends on what you want."

At this point, Cui Shilang had to say something. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I am willing to explain."

Under Li Shen's intimidation, Cui Shilang explained in detail how King Rui colluded with the Wang Prefecture in Shangzhou Prefecture four years ago to misappropriate farmers' private fields, and made false accounts to make farmers pay more taxes and grain. As well as the matter of stationing grain and troops.

Li Shen took out a volume of paperwork from his sleeve, shook it and said, "The answer is 80% correct, and there are some that you didn't say."

Cui Shilang was even more frightened when he saw that Li Shen actually had his evidence, "Yes, yes, and also, King Rui has assigned a task to the prefect Wang, asking him to find the prince."

"Prince Rui doesn't believe that this prince is dead?" Li Shen raised his eyebrows.

"That's not the case." Cui Shilang continued with sweat on his forehead, "King Rui told the public that he did not believe that the prince was dead and that he must still be alive. He did this for the sake of showing to outsiders and the queen. , he is fake caring.”

"For the queen to see?" Li Shen suddenly smiled. He collected the file and nodded to Cui Shilang, "Pack it up and return to the capital together tomorrow."

Cui Shilang raised his head, "Huh? So fast?"

"What? You're not happy?"

"No... it's..." Cui Shilang wanted to say that he still had official business to attend to, but faced with Li Shen's evidence, he didn't dare not listen, so he had to respond, "Yes, I understand. "
.

Just when Li Shen and Lin Xirou returned to the house, Bai Gu, who had returned to the capital first, rushed back.

He brought news from the capital.

Led by Shangshu Bai, the Ministry of Household Affairs is already secretly investigating Cui Shilang.

Li Shen also told him about the affairs of the prefect's Yamen and Cui Shilang in the past few days.

Bai Yu was shocked, "These two people are indeed King Rui's secret targets. Master, when will you return to the capital?"

"tomorrow."
.

In the afternoon of the next day, Li Shen and Lin Xirou vacated the rented house and took everyone away from Shangzhou Mansion to the capital.

Of course, Fu Sanniang had already left the magistrate's office and was traveling with her.

Moreover, they were accompanied by Wang Zhifu and Cui Shilang.

The prefect's wife didn't know the identities of Lin Xirou and the others yet, so she just assumed that the prefect Wang was going to Beijing to report on his duties.

The prefect Wang was not at home, and the prefect's wife, who was much quieter, began to rectify the servants in the back house.

In the past, those servants and maids who secretly hoped for her early death and had already fallen in love with Mrs. Wang were all replaced by her.
.

The capital of Shangzhou is not far from the capital, only about three hundred miles.

On the afternoon of the second day of departure, Lin Xirou and her party arrived at the gate of the capital.

Lin Xirou was filled with emotion when she saw the familiar gate of the city wall.

She thought that when she risked her life to escape, she would never have a chance to come back.

Unexpectedly, just four years later, she would come back.

However, she was still not sure whether the road ahead would be safe.

But Li Shen chose this path, and she would accompany him to the end.

There is no other way. The man who picked it up by himself has to be pampered even if he endures it. Can he still throw it away?

Lin Xirou frowned as she looked at the man's hand tightly holding her waist.

"Father, mother, how did you meet back then?" Li Yu asked for the hundred and first time, looking at the two of them. “Bought with money.” Lin Xirou answered for the 101st time.

"Yesterday you said that I got a piece of steamed bun in exchange?" Li Shen raised his eyebrows.

"Really? Did I say that?"

"Don't interrupt, dad!" Li Yu pushed Li Shen aside and then asked Lin Xirou, "Mom, go on, what next? How much money did you spend to buy it? What did you do when you bought dad back? "Li Yu looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of it even if he broke the iron pot.

"Uh..., buy it back..." Lin Xirou rubbed her forehead.

I started thinking about how to tell the story.

At the beginning, she told the story of how she met Li Shen very seriously.

"It was in the suburbs in early spring, under an elm tree..."

But Li Yu was dissatisfied with such an ordinary beginning, so she started making up nonsense.

Unexpectedly, this boy listened to it as a story.

Ask the editor every day.

He would not be happy if it was repeated.

She just kept making up stories.

Lin Xirou secretly thought that after arriving in the capital, if she could not return to the hospital and continue to be a medical girl, she could publish books and sell stories.

The title is "One Hundred and One Different Encounters with My Baby's Father".

Just when Lin Xirou was conscientiously coaxing the baby, their carriage suddenly stopped.

Someone stopped the carriage and began to investigate.

Thinking that Li Shen was still a "dead person" and she was still a fugitive, Lin Xirou suddenly became alert.

Seeing her change of expression, Li Shen pulled her and Li Yu into his arms and whispered, "Didn't we discuss it on the way? Cui Shilang and Wang Zhifu have everything, so Rourou doesn't have to be afraid."

Lin Xirou looked up at him and nodded gently, "Yes."

"Stop the car for a routine inspection..., ah? The villain has a lot of eyes, but I don't know if it's Mr. Cui..."

After Cui Shilang gave him the token and the pass, the city gate soldiers immediately saluted and apologized.

"The three cars behind are full of family members and luggage. Do we need to check them too?"

"Don't dare, please, Mr. Cui."

He said he didn't dare, but there were still city gate soldiers who raised the curtain of Li Shen's carriage.

Li Yu was the first to hold Li Shen's head, "Dad, why do you have more hair than mine?"

"Because I am your father, my father will have more hair than my son." Li Shen said in a deep voice.

"Then why does Tian Li's father have less hair than his son Tian Da? Or is he bald?"

Li Shen, "..."

The two city gate soldiers outside the carriage realized that they were a family of three. They couldn't help but smile when they heard the child's childish words. They lowered the curtain and went to check other carriages.

"You're stupid! You don't know this? Because Tian Li is the grandfather! Tian Da is the father!" Li Yu frowned when he saw Lin Xirou and Li Shen. He couldn't help but said it, and thought it was funny. , burst into laughter.

Lin Xirou laughed along with him.

She sighed in her heart, hoping that when Li Yu arrived in the capital, he would have less worries and be so happy every day.

The carriage was let go and started moving slowly again.

After entering the city gate, the noise outside the car gradually grew louder.

From time to time, I heard the cries of vendors.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys. After walking for a while, it stopped again.
