Chapter 311 Leaving the Capital, a New Beginning

A thick layer of blood stained the marble floor of Chengqian Hall. The palace servants scrubbed and wiped the floor for four hours to clean it thoroughly.The officials in the hall had already left, leaving only the royal family members there.The Third Prince, Fourth Prince, and Sixth Prince did not dare to make a sound at this time. They lowered their heads and tried to minimize their existence, afraid of attracting Baili Qingcang's attention again.The Second Prince lowered his eyes slightly, but he was paying close attention to Shen Ninghua.Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua knelt in the hall. The sky had gradually brightened, making the candles in the hall seem a little frail and powerless."Father Emperor, please allow us to leave."Baili Qingcang's expression was eerily profound. "Give me a reason. I don't want to hear any reason like you're afraid of revenge and sorts. If you were really afraid, you wou

Chapter 312 Heading to the Northwest!

After returning to the mansion, Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua did not waste their time. Shen Ninghua went to see the two children while listening to Bi Zhu and Bai Ruo report the situation."Miss, all the things have been sealed in the warehouse, and the shops in the capital and nearby are all closed."Bai Ruo added, "We've prepared everything that we need on the way to the northwest according to your list. We can set off at any time."With a nod, Shen Ninghua caressed the children's plumpy cheeks gently. "His Highness will arrange the people he needs to bring. As for our side, the four of you, two wet nurses, Liu Yun, and Xia Rouqin should be enough. What about Xuanlin? Is he ready?""Yes, Miss. Liu Yun is watching over him, and he has already been prepared."Shen Ninghua nodded. When she heard the footsteps, she turned around, and there was a hint of warmth in her eyes when she saw Baili Junyi walking in. "Have you ar

Chapter 313 Arrival in Zhou City

Because they were not in a hurry, and no one dared to disturb them, Shen Ninghua's convoy traveled at a leisure pace. If they hadn't taken into account that their children were too young to spend their time on the carriage for too long, they would have used a longer time to arrive at their destination.They traveled leisurely for two weeks, but the impact they brought on the capital continued to fester.Because there was great doubt about the officials, in addition to the fact that Baili Junyi's secret arrangement for the Shadow Guards and the Dragon Scale Army to run their operation smoothly, the investigation of the official's residence had progressed exceptionally swiftly, and the result was also far greater than imagined.The things that were taken out from the official's residence were pulled into the imperial palace by carriages for an entire day. The Third Prince and the others, who were trying to fill up the national vault, were overjoy

Chapter 314 Meeting the Zhou Family for the First Time

Zhou Da hurriedly waved his hand. "No. Although my last name is also Zhou, I'm not related to the Zhou Family. I think the only connection between us is the same last name."After he finished speaking, he carefully observed Baili Junyi's and Shen Ninghua's expressions, but he found that Shen Ninghua seemed to be asking the question casually as she lost her interest after hearing his answer and continued to stroll around the garden.After a brief look, Baili Junyi nodded in satisfaction. "This courtyard is very good. Lord Zhou, ask the Zhou Family how much I need to spend to buy this courtyard?""It is the Zhou Family's honor for you to stay in the courtyard. They won't accept your money," Zhou Da quickly refused.Throwing a glance at him, Baili Junyi quipped with a faint smile, "Lord Zhou, you're not from the Zhou Family. How can you represent them? Please go and ask them.""Uh... O-Okay. You're so benevolent, Your Hig

Chapter 315 The Increasingly Stranger Zhou City

The dishes prepared at the banquet were extremely exquisite. Many of them were unique to the northwest that were perfect in aroma, color, and taste. It was obvious that they had taken a lot of effort in preparing this.Baili Junyi tasted the dishes and wine. The feeling of strangeness in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He felt that Zhou City's officials were too enthusiastic and respectful. Even if the officials here were afraid of him, they didn't have to be so cautious to curry favor with him.Shen Ninghua did not think much of it. She heard the sound of flute and looked at the door with interest.A woman in a red dress and a veil over her face walked in with a jade flute in her hand, illustrating her slender and fair fingers. Her skirt was slightly long, and she dragged it behind her. She walked lightly on the ground as if she was stepping on the clouds, looking like a fairy.Everyone in the hall was attracted by the appea

Chapter 316 Catch Something Big

Baili Junyi started to observe the officials more and more attentively. The more he scrutinized them, the more suspicious he became. There was definitely something that they did not know about Zhou City. This place was definitely strange!The officials present were entertaining him wholeheartedly, so he allowed them to please him. At the end of the banquet, he even praised Zhou Da wantonly, as if he had forgotten the little episode in the middle of the banquet.After getting on the carriage, the tipsiness on Baili Junyi's face due to the alcohol disappeared completely. Shen Ninghua looked at him with a playful smirk. "You are really good at pretending. Those officials have all been fooled."Hearing this, Baili Junyi smiled, but his tone was particularly cold. "Zhou City has a strange aura everywhere. We will stay here for a while. Maybe we can catch something big.""How do you feel about Miss Zhou?""Miss Zhou? Who? Zh

Chapter 317 Benevolence? A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing?

The further Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua walked, the more frightening the scene in front of them became. Shen Ninghua's face turned ghastly pale, and she almost vomited.The ground was full of people, and later the horses had to stop because there was no place for them to move.A horrible smell of decay filled the air. Occasionally, someone spotted Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua coming over and wanted to get up to ask for help, but they did not even have the strength to move. They only twitched twice before lying on the ground without any sound.This place was only a few miles away from Zhou City, but the dirtiness and rot in this place were in stark contrast to the city's cleanliness and prosperity. It was hard to believe that a rich city was located not far away from here. Starving people and corpses scattered everywhere, and they didn't even have the strength to get up and ask for help.Baili Junyi handed the horse to the guard be

Chapter 318 Chaos and Confrontation!

Shen Ninghua personally checked on some seriously ill victims, prescribed medicine, and watched them take it. After checking their pulse, she heaved a sigh of relief. Although the symptoms were slightly serious, it was fortunate that they would be able to control it as long as they took extra precaution thanks to the slightly chilling weather in the late autumn. After this period of time, they would recover and be in a much better condition.After a full day of work, Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi returned to their residence to rest. The two children seemed to know their parents' hard work, so they played quietly beside them for a while before being carried away to sleep.Hong Ling sorted out and compiled the news that her subordinates reported and sent it to Shen Ninghua."Miss, I have already sent people to inquire about the incident. Some time ago, a lot of victims were forced to leave and seek help from the surrounding places. However,

Chapter 319 Calm Down!

The chilly aura enveloped Baili Junyi's body, and his gazes were so cold as if a storm was coming. He could tolerate the Zhou Family's influence and the power of the officials, but he could not tolerate them cruelly oppressing the people with their power and position! The victims were already homeless, so they could not be deprived of their last chance of survival!He walked to Shen Ninghua's side and coldly swept his gaze over Zhou City's people."My wife is skilled in medicine, and even the head of the Academy of Imperial Physicians verified her ability. When she said that the water is poisonous, there's definitely some problem with the water. Those who don't believe her can drink the water to prove her wrong. If you don't dare to come up, shut up! Or I'll assume that you're making baseless accusations!"As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ninghua, who had been paying attention to the crowd, noticed that some of them had shrunk their

Chapter 320 A Vicious Scheme!

When Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua returned to their residence, they looked rather dismayed.It was such a perfect plot from the Zhou Family. After today's incidents, the citizens and disaster victims would be grateful to Zhou Ziqing. If they wanted to make a move on him and his family without any solid proof, the people would certainly help the Zhou Family clear their name.However, with Zhou Ziqing's style of conduct, it would be hard for them to find evidence against him.Baili Junyi carefully looked at the reports that his subordinate submitted and finally threw them to the corner of the table. "The Zhou Family, what a character. I never expect such a character is hidden in the tiny Zhou City. I don't know where to start." He had repeated this thought over and over again in his mind, and his feelings intensified.Shen Ninghua nodded. "Yes, a family can control a city. Zhou Ziqing is not to be underestimated."
