When I came out of the palace, it was snowing outside.

Under the wind and snow, Liu Yunxiang and his two children got into the carriage and left the Zhenbei Palace.

She has no family to return to, but fortunately she still has a house in Diejiao Hutong.

"Miss Xi'er is still living there with those children. If we go over there, we might not have anywhere to live." Jin Yan said worriedly.

According to the girl's instructions, she has been delivering meals to those children from time to time these days, so she knows the situation there.

The two children were half asleep and half awake in her arms. Liu Yunxiang lowered his head and looked at them, then whispered, "Squeeze them first, I will think of a solution tomorrow."

Arriving outside the alley, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Hearing the commotion outside, Liu Yunxiang frowned and handed the two children in her arms to Jin Yan to take care of. She opened the car curtain and saw many officials outside. They held torches and were searching nearby.

"Girl, they are officers from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, and they are searching for the fugitives from the Shannian camp." Zijin said.

Liu Yunxiang looked back and forth, but there was no one in front or behind. They were only concentrated in this alley. It seemed that they were not checking door to door, but specifically checking her yard.

She looked towards the entrance of the alley and saw Qin Feishi.

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, knowing that his hiding of the children from Shan Nian Camp had probably been exposed.

She walked towards Qin Feishi and said, "His Royal Highness King Anqing, you have really worked hard to lead these officers in the search yourself."

As she said that, she smiled at Qin Fei, "But your people are blocking my way."

Qin Feishi turned around and looked at Liu Yunxiang. His beautiful face looked particularly cold under the wind and snow, even though he was smiling.

"It's late at night, Princess, you're not in the palace, is this?"

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "King Anqing has good ears and eyes, doesn't he know?"

Qin Fei sighed and said, "Why is the princess so ignorant? It will be beneficial to your palace if the seventh child marries Princess Changning."

"I can't figure it out."

Qin Feishi smiled: "So you ran away from home in the middle of the night?"

“You must have an attitude.”

"As a former friend, I would like to advise you that there is no room for change in this matter. Yan Mu will definitely marry Chang Ning, unless you really want to resist the decree."

Liu Yunxiang smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn't have to worry about this matter, but as a former good friend, you sell me a favor and don't check this alley."

Qin Feishi crossed his hands in front of him, tilted his head and looked into the alley, and said in a clear voice: "Recently, epidemics have been discovered in the east, south, and north of the city, which has caused panic among the people. The imperial court ordered us, the Soldiers and Horses Division, to find these kindhearted people who escaped as soon as possible. If a criminal from the camp is hiding, he will be guilty of the same crime as a fugitive from the Shan Nian Camp."

Under his long sleeves, Liu Yunxiang clenched his fists, while the officers from the Military and Horse Division had already entered the alley and started investigating from the first house.

Qin Feishi should have discovered that they hid more than a dozen children from the Shan Nian Camp, so why did they start to attack now? She couldn't help but guess that the disease found in the city in the past two days was not transmitted by people from the Shan Nian Camp, but his handiwork .

He took advantage of this moment to cause panic among the people, and then reported it to the court, who searched and arrested him all night long, targeting Diejiao Hutong.

As long as these children are found, firstly, he has made a meritorious service, which can show the usefulness of the Military and Horse Division, and then to save the yamen that will be abolished. Secondly, while Yan Mu is out of the capital, he can light a fire behind him and catch him off guard. .

Liu Yunxiang's expression tightened, "You can check it as long as you want, but you can't block our way."

Qin Feishi's lips curled up, and then he waved his hands to let his men move out of the way, "Princess, please."

Liu Yunxiang raised an eyebrow at Zijin and asked her to drive the carriage into the alley. Then he glanced at the officials. They had already checked the first house and would arrive at her house soon.

Since Qin Feishi knew that she was hiding someone, he must have set up a dragnet and there would be no way to escape.

Liu Yunxiang didn't know what to do for a moment, so he could only bite the bullet and walk inside.

"By the way, Princess, is there anyone living in your home?" Qin Feishi suddenly asked.

Liu Yunxiang was silent and said, "Yes, just some servants."

"Then the princess will order someone to open the door later so that we can search more easily."

"Does my land have to be checked too?"

Qin Fei smiled, "Check it, you have to check it carefully."

When Liu Yunxiang and the others walked in, Qin Feishi followed them with his official servants, following step by step.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, and when she arrived in front of the door, Qin Feishi followed with others, right behind her.

"Princess, please knock on the door. We have finished the search and you can rest well." Qin Fei said.

Those children were inside. What she was worried about at this moment was not the consequences of hiding these children, but the lives of these children...

She hesitated to raise her hand, and time passed little by little. Qin Fei did not rush, as if the prey had been trapped in a trap and he was admiring the death struggle of the prey.

It was cold, and beads of sweat fell from her forehead.

The wind became stronger again, whistling past her ears. She gritted her teeth and simply turned around. She wanted to negotiate with Qin Feishi. She could be punished, but don't hurt these children.

Just as she was about to speak, the courtyard door opened from inside.

There was a creak and everyone looked inside.

"Hey, why are there so many people? Sister Liu, why are you here?"

This was Xi'er's voice. Liu Yunxiang turned his head bluntly and saw Xi'er looking at her with a smile.

"Xi'er..."

"Yeah, it's very cold outside. Sister Liu, please come in quickly." Xi'er pushed open both courtyard doors before Liu Yunxiang finished speaking.

It was quiet and dark inside, with only a little light in the west wing. Liu Yunxiang looked at Xi'er again and saw that she was enjoying herself, and he understood.

"King Anqing, you don't want to search, let's check." Liu Yunxiang stepped aside and let out the door, "But please hurry up, we have to rest."

Seeing Liu Yunxiang's sudden change in attitude, Qin Fei guessed that the fish might have fallen out of the net. But his people have been deployed everywhere, it can be described as a dragnet, it is really impossible!

He was still unwilling to give in and waved his subordinates to go in and search.

As he expected, there was indeed no one inside, and more than a dozen children disappeared all at once.

Qin Fei frowned, took two steps back, and looked to the east and west of the alley. He had already checked the east side, but the house on the west side...

"Your Highness, a wall at Shannian camp was knocked down, and many people escaped. The higher-ups ordered our people to rush to support!" An official came to report in a hurry.

Qin Feishi raised his hand to reassure the official. After glancing to the west, he turned to Liu Yunxiang: "Princess, I wonder if anyone lives in this house to the west?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "The owner of this family is out of town and hasn't been back for many years."

"Oh, who is the owner of this house?"

Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed and he said: "Suping King Lu Chang'an."

Qin Feishi narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then sighed: "It seems that those fugitives have fled elsewhere. Let's go to Xicheng to support them!"
