aid to his wife, "Your appetite hasn't been good lately, and the medicine soup tastes too strong. Don't make it in the inner courtyard anymore. Take it to the outer courtyard study and have Fu lao (au...Jia An, dressed in a black night suit, stood on the pier, calling out the names in a low voice.

Have all the people from Suijin Beach arrived

"All set!" The village head came forward and handed out wooden tokens, then called for the villagers to quickly board the large boat.

Zheng Wu stood guard at the plank, helping each villager onto the boat one by one. Then he said to his master, "Master Five, not a single one is missing!"

"Jia'an started pointing to the next one, "Aunt Liu Uncle and Aunt Xing"

Mrs. Liu brought two maidservants, and the Xing family couple also brought an elderly couple of servants forward.

Home was pacified one by one, and they were all put on the boat...

Thus, for a good half hour, the pier was deserted, but the ship became faintly lively.

Li Laoer and Li Dayong walked over and asked, "Is everyone here"

Jia An shook his head, "There are still people from Zhengjiazhuang who haven't arrived yet!"

As soon as the words were uttered, Shui Ling rushed over in a hurry, lowering her voice to say, "Our convoy is already ten miles outside and will arrive soon."

Everyone gasped in surprise.

As expected, within two quarters of an hour, the Zheng family's convoy arrived.

Over the years, although Zhengjiazhuang has only sent their children to work for the main family, its influence can be seen everywhere: from Suijin Tan and Xinduli to even Quanzhou.

They tinkered with various small objects to improve them, benefiting many people.

At this time, their carriage was lighter and more effortless than others.

And after they got off the carriage, everyone took their luggage and in just a few trips, they dismantled the carriage completely, intending to carry it onto the ship and take it south to use...

The head of the Zheng family estate was a tall and imposing figure, known for his steady demeanor.

He took the lead in paying respects to the host and was lifted up by Li Lao Er.

"Master Zheng, please don't be so polite. We're all family. It wasn't easy for you to travel so far. Let's not waste any time, get on board quickly."

Master Zheng immediately handed over the wooden tokens, reported the number of people, and then stood by the plank, helping Jia An send the villagers onto the ship one by one.

Su Yun was covered in dust and looked rather disheveled.

Although she knew the young lady wasn't here, she couldn't help but glance around.

Instead, Shui Ling was surprisingly calm this once. She spoke softly to comfort her, "Don't worry, Your Highness is capable. She'll definitely reach the south and meet up with us soon."

Shuiyun nodded, then fell silent.

Li Dayong's hand remained firmly gripping the long sword, ever vigilant for any sudden developments.

Li La'er pulled him along and said, "Come on, get on board."

Li Dayong was taken aback and quickly waved his hand, "No way, Grandpa. There are a bunch of things going on in the military camp, I can't leave! I need to wait for the Marquis and Fourth Brother to come back!"

"Don't be stupid, at this time, staying here means death!" Li Er said in a low voice, "Funiu and Mu Xu have already gone to Jiangbei. They will definitely take the Master and the Fourth Brother to Quanzhou."

You wait here, you won't just miss them, you might even lose your life.

Li Dayong still disagreed, pointing in the direction of the palace and saying, "I'll guard here, hold onto the military power, once that one knows we've left, there's no way they can pursue us."

Li Lao Er sneered coldly, looking especially sinister under the night.

"Don't worry, he'll be too busy to notice soon enough."

Li Dayong was puzzled.

Li Laoer then leaned into his ear and whispered a few words.

Li Dayong's eyes widened, and he almost jumped up on the spot.

After a long while, he returned with a hint of excitement, gasping for breath, and turned to look for his comrades.

Only the most trusted subordinates were brought here by him.

At this time, select a few men with families, take them back to the military camp with the command seal, and wait to be taken over.

Left alone, he asked each one individually and then they all boarded the boat together……

As night deepened, the dock was silent save for the sound of the river.

On the large ship, everyone was waiting, even though they didn't know what for.

Similarly, the entire new city is also waiting.

As for the refugees outside the city gate, they were tired from making a ruckus and went back to their makeshift shelters to sleep.

In the palace, most of the palaces had their lights out, including the study.

Yi Zongguan was terribly sleepy, standing behind a pillar and yawning.

A little eunuch stepped forward and flattered, "Manager, would the little one fetch you a bowl of sour plum soup to quench your thirst"

Master Yi was just about to speak when the little eunuch cried out in alarm.

Although short, it was still very clear in the quiet night. A guard came to inquire, but he was sent away by Elder Yi in a few words.

Yi Zongtang glared at the little eunuch and said, "Go, let's go have a bowl of sour plum soup to refresh ourselves. Don't get so startled."

The young eunuch broke out in a cold sweat. If he had been dragged away by the guards just now, he wouldn't have died even if he was skinned alive.

He followed the manager faithfully, but as they turned the corner, he couldn't help his curiosity and cast a glance back.

Just now, he clearly saw a white shadow jump into the window of the imperial study...

In the quiet sleeping chamber, the Emperor slept soundly.

In the corner, an incense burner released wisps of blue smoke, a calming scent that aided sleep.

The emperor has favored this scent the most in recent six months. Especially after being tricked by the Imperial Concubine, he could barely sleep without it.

The little white fox nimbly jumped onto the tall stool where the incense burner was placed. It turned its head this way and that, then put its two small paws on the collar around its neck.

Just as he was about to exert himself, the door creaked open.

The little fox was so scared that its fur stood on end, desperately trying to hide its head behind the incense burner.

Footsteps crept closer and closer, a gentle hand lightly stroking the little fox.

"Don't be afraid, it's me."

The little fox raised its head, like a child caught doing something wrong, and whimpered plaintively.

The prince chuckled lightly, carefully unclasping the collar with both hands and then tapping it against the incense burner a few times.

Some black powder fell silently, burning with the incense, gradually spreading throughout the room.

The door swung open once more, and the Crown Prince walked out, his sleeve encasing the little fox. When they reached a deserted spot, the Crown Prince set the little fox down.

"Go back, and find your master! Don't worry her..." The prince rubbed the little fox's head with reluctance in the end.

The little fox chirped, its small eyes filled with confusion.

It spun in place a few times, then suddenly leaped up, biting clean through the cord of the prince's jade pendant. Then, with the pendant dangling from its jaws, it vanished without a trace.

The prince let out a half-amused sigh.

"Little one, are you going to get your master something good as a last favor"

Sadly, no one heard, and of course, no one answered. Only the night wind blew past, carrying its curiosity far away...

On the pier, aboard a large ship that had been waiting for a long time, people were starting to get restless.

Even Old Mrs. Li walked to the edge of the boat and peered into the darkness. Li Lao'er persuaded her, "Mother, it's windy here. Why don't you go back to the cabin"

Li Laotai shook her head and whispered, "It's nothing, I'll wait a little longer. Funiu is just such a little fox, usually so dearly loved, she must be taken away no matter what."

Li La Er didn't speak. Compared to the little fox itself, the task it bore was the key among keys!

If successful, the entire Heavenly Martial world will be turned upside down.

But nobody knew, it was all thanks to a little fox!
