The children were all taken care of, and Lin Zao no longer had any worries.

After the children all went to school, she disguised herself as a man, carried a large baggage as a blindfold, and rode away from the back of the general's mansion on horseback.

Externally, the general's wife has contracted typhoid fever and has to stay in bed.

On the surface, Lin Zao returned to Datong Town alone, but in fact, there were six secret guards following Lin Zao, including Shi Yi.

Otherwise, Tang Jian would not have let Lin Zao leave alone.

Tang Jian watched with some reluctance as Lin Zao's back gradually disappeared from sight, and then he put away the love between his children and prepared to do his own thing.

He also had a mission, and the spy incident sounded the alarm to King Cheng. Knowing that someone was interested in the steel knife, King Cheng naturally wanted to find out the person behind it.

If those people fail once, there will definitely be other actions later. Tang Jian's responsibility is to protect those secret bases and lure people out.

As for the real steel-making base, that place is extremely tight. Only King Cheng knows where it is. Even the steel-making craftsmen don't know where they are.

Therefore, King Cheng is not too worried about being found, but now that he knows that someone is plotting behind his back, how can he treat them well if he doesn't retaliate?

So Tang Jian's mission came.

Lin Zao rode a fast horse all the way out of the city, and then headed in the direction of Luo Lin Mansion.

Datong Town is a village under Luolin Mansion. If you want to go back, you must enter Luolin Mansion.

The journey went smoothly, and we met neither refugees nor robbers. Probably because of the cold weather, everyone hid to resist the cold.

Moreover, Lin Zao was roaring by on horseback. Even if the robber happened to see him, he would not have time to catch up with him.

It was just the down jacket and warm clothes that Lin Zao wore, otherwise he would have been chilled by the cold wind while riding a fast horse.

Those robbers couldn't ride horses in the cold wind just to chase a person.

So the journey was uneventful.

It took Lin Zao nearly two months to take Tang's mother and several children from Luolin Mansion to Qianzhou, but now she rushed to the gate of Luolin Mansion city wall in just one month.

"Fifty taels of entry fee plus household registration."

Lin Zao led the horse and was about to enter the city, when the soldiers at the city gate stopped her.

Lin Zao paused while taking out the silver. The last time he entered the city, he only had one tael of silver. How long had it been since then that it had increased to five taels?

Is Luo Linfu trying to steal money?

You must know that the entrance fee to Qianzhou City is usually half a tael of silver. If you are a refugee, you can enter the city for free, but you have to obey the distribution.

Even the last time they went to Yaozhou, the entry fee was only one tael.

This Luolin Mansion is simply sucking people's blood. The sky-high entrance fee is probably just to prevent those refugees from entering the city.

"Are you still going in? If not, go away! Don't stand here blocking the room!"

When the city gate guard saw Lin Zaodun motionless, his expression turned ugly and he shouted angrily to drive people away.

The poor guy has enough money to buy a horse, but he can't even spare five taels of silver.

Lin Zao's face was a little cold, but in order to enter the city, he could only take out the money and throw it to the guard.

After the guard got the money, he shook it with satisfaction and casually checked Lin Zao's household registration before letting him in.

The household registration in Lin Zao's hand was given to her by Tang Jian, and he probably fabricated it.

In ancient times, household registration information was simple and easy to falsify. There were not so many talented people who were admitted to the scholar examination and had their household registration replaced by someone else's identity. No one knew whether it was true or false.

Therefore, no one noticed any problems with the household registration in Lin Zao's hands.
