Without alerting anyone, Li Yao climbed over the wall and left the house.

There was no useful person around her, otherwise there would be no need for her to go out and find out the information personally.

If only the black faces were here!

"Where?"

Outside the wall, Xiaojiu caught her outstretched foot.

Li Yao kicked her feet. Fortunately, she was brave enough to recognize Xiao Jiu's voice in time, otherwise she would have been frightened to death.

With the strength of his hand, Li Yao jumped down.

"Why are you squatting in a corner if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?"

She hurried forward.

Xiao Jiu followed up with a big stride, "I just came out from my aunt's house. I wanted to talk to you, but when I saw you wanted to climb over the wall, I had to wait for you here."

"Ha," Li Yao sneered, "Thank you so much!"

"Where are you going?" Xiaojiu saw that she had no intention of stopping.

"You still have to ask?" Li Yao glanced at him.

They are all waiting for her here, but they still don’t know where she is going?

Sometimes she had to admire Xiaojiu's quick thinking.

"I'll go with you!" he said.

Li Yao stopped and asked, "Where have all the people in the south of the city gone?"

This question bothered her all night, and she hoped it wasn't what she thought.

Ever since the Ouyang family wanted to build a tomb in the south of the city, she knew that the people in the south of the city would not have a good life.

But the eldest princess knows all this, and Master Song also knows it.

She also gave a warning in advance.

Even Hua Tiejiang's family asked the eldest princess to settle down.

She trusted them.

In the last days, those tragic days always shrouded her heart. Even though her heart was as hard as iron, she couldn't help but feel the pain in front of the defenseless people at the bottom who could not control their own destiny.

If the eldest princess abandoned the people in the south of the city, she would also choose to fight.

She wanted to find out and prove that she was not wrong about the person.

Inability to do anything is not an excuse. When looking for a job in one's position, one's responsibility and mission should be given priority.

Of course, the Ouyang family is the culprit, the cancer, and the most deserving of death.

Xiaojiu lowered his eyes and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. If you just want to go to the south of the city to explore and satisfy your curiosity, I will accompany you. But the rest has nothing to do with you!"

"Then don't follow me!"

Li Yao said coldly, "If you can give up the people in the south of the city, one day you can give up the people in the west of the city, give up the north of the city, and give up the east of the city.

I am one of them, and I don’t want to be a victim of your weighing the pros and cons! "

"Have you forgotten what you said before?" Xiaojiu stretched out his arms to stop him, "Pull the fire under the cauldron and take your time."

Li Yao slapped his hand away, "We can't wait any longer!"

She strode forward without hesitation.

She even began to think that if Yun Mansion really couldn't be saved, she would continue to go north as before.

Her original plan was not this Yun Mansion, but the mountains further north.

If she couldn't protect others, she had to protect her own family.

Protect Aunt Wu Niang, Sister Chun, and Si Ya, and save the people of Qingshan Village who lived and died together.

Xiaojiu finally caught up and said, "I'm afraid of you. My aunt doesn't want this matter to be publicized. If one more person knows about it, it will be more dangerous. I'm hiding it from you just because I don't want to implicate you."

Li Yao continued to move forward, and Xiao Jiu grabbed her and said, "Ride a horse!"

He whistled, and a black horse ran out of the darkness.

He got on his horse and dragged the man up.

“Half of the people in the south of the city are living in houses that have not been demolished because they don’t want to leave.

My aunt and Mr. Song had already planned countermeasures in private. In addition to the yamen's servants patrolling day and night, there were also the eldest princess's personal guards protecting her in the dark.

As long as they don't run around, their lives are not in danger. "

On the horse, Xiaojiu's words came from Li Yao's head.

“Because some of the residents of the Ouyang family’s forcibly demolished houses and shops went to live with relatives, and some were resettled by their aunts.

When we came from Pushi County, you may not have noticed that there were many oxcarts and donkey carts, and those people were going to the place where their aunt was staying. "

Li Yao remembered that when he came that day, he didn't pay much attention to the situation outside.

Because the carriage was driven by Hong Lian, she was too reassured that she never looked outside.

I didn't know what the scene was like outside.

"Of course, there are some people near the ruined temple on the outskirts of the city who are unwilling to join relatives or leave their homeland.

There is nothing my aunt can do about that! "

"If that's the case, I apologize to you for my doubts about the eldest princess.

I actually thought she was afraid of the Ouyang family and didn't care about the lives of the people in the south of the city! "

Xiaojiu's chuckle could be heard in his ears.

"It turns out that you love me so much, but you are so stubborn on weekdays."

"Me, me," Li Yao's ears turned red instantly, "who loves me so much? Our family has finally settled down in Yun Mansion, and we don't want to run around here and there anymore!"

"That's it?" Xiaojiu joked.

"What else could you do otherwise?" Li Yao curled his lips, "Huh, if you really piss me off, I'll blow up their Ouyang family!"

"Good idea!" The corners of Xiaojiu's lips rose.

"I thought of it!" Li Yao's eyes suddenly flashed. "Run quickly, let's go to the south of the city immediately and give a big gift to the Ouyang family."

"I also have a gift for you." Xiao Jiu whispered.

Li Yao didn't hear this. She was thinking about going to the south of the city immediately.

The horse galloped and soon arrived at the south entrance of the city.

Xiaojiu patted the horse's back, and the black horse trotted away.

The two walked in the silent night and walked into the southern half of the city surrounded by Ouyang's family.

The outline of Ouyang's great-aunt's cemetery is already there. Starting from the suburbs in the second half of the south of the city, going straight forward, there are more than 5,000 acres of land.

The cemetery took shape, and many deep pits were dug in the center.

The two stood on a hillside and looked around.

"That should be their central location." Xiao Jiu pointed.

In fact, he didn't see it as clearly as Li Yao.

"Oh, should the head of the Ouyang family build a tomb or an underground palace?" Li Yao couldn't help but be speechless.

Just by looking at the prototype, not to mention what the scenery is underneath, Li Yao can imagine how magnificent it will be after it is completed.

"The man you saved today woke up for a while." Xiaojiu took Li Yao's hand and walked downstairs, saying as he walked, "That man turned out to be the person from the Ouyang family who specializes in designing cemeteries. I checked his end."

"You're so fast, it's good to have someone around to help you." Li Yao said angrily.

She didn't know why this happened.

Xiaojiu didn't take it seriously and continued, "That man was originally a famous craftsman in Yun Mansion, and his grandfather participated in the construction of the imperial tomb.

When the Ouyang family came to find him, he thought they were just building an ordinary cemetery, but he knew that after the Ouyang family planned the south of the city, they refused to design it for them.

So Ouyang Xing sent people to capture thirty-six members of his family and threaten their lives.

As a last resort, he designed dozens of layouts for the Ouyang family.

But he accidentally learned that his whole family had been killed by the Ouyang family as early as when he was drawing the first territory. "

Li Yao let out a big breath.

"That's just right, you must have his design in your hand!"

Xiao Jiu curled her lips, took out a piece of white paper from her arms, and slowly spread it out, "I originally wanted to find someone to cause some damage."

"No need to look for it, leave it to me!"

Li Yao looked at the map, "Look at me razing it!"
