It's not scary to travel through a book, you can change your fate as a cannon fodder by yoursel

Lu Yaowen first went back to the academy to ask for leave. His own courses were not urgent and he could catch up slowly. But the urgent thing was that he had to find another teacher to replace the class he was teaching to the scholars. He couldn't afford to delay this.

He was popular and generous, and soon found people willing to help.

The matter of the road permit was entrusted to a classmate, whose brother happened to have the authority. With money and the right connections, everything went smoothly.

Renting a car is even easier. As long as you pay enough fare, the driver will be very easy to talk to.

After finishing everything he needed to do, Lu Yaowen went back to rest as he would be very tired in the next few days.

Not to mention the hardships on the road, it took Lu Yaowen only two days and two nights to reach the capital city, covering hundreds of miles.

After agreeing on a meeting place with the driver, Lu Yaowen found an inn, washed, changed his clothes, ate a bowl of hot rice, and then went to Wangyuezhai after he had packed up.

As soon as I mentioned Weng Xiao to the waiter, I was taken into the reception room. Coincidentally, Lin Changqing was counting the accounts in the store.

"Mr. Lu?" Lin Changqing didn't expect that this person would be the one coming.

"Yes, hello, Mr. Lin." Lu Yaowen stood up to meet him.

"Hello, Mr. Lu, who are you looking for?" The two had never met in private.

"Weng Xiaoan is fine. He asked me to come and see if Debao and his sister are out of trouble."

After hearing the words "Weng Xiaoan, how is she?", Lin Changqing almost couldn't hold back and asked with trembling lips, "Where is she?"

Lu Yaowen didn't expect Lin Changqing to be so excited. He was deeply moved and said, "They were from my hometown, Leping. They just arrived three days ago. How are the two children?"

Knowing that he had lost his composure, Lin Changqing hurriedly invited Lu Yaowen to take a seat and took the opportunity to calm down.

"Weng Xiao's father is such a scoundrel, worse than an animal. He tortured the two children with needles and wanted to ask more about her situation. The brother and sister had some conscience and insisted that they knew nothing and said nothing. Fortunately, my cousin was careful and sent someone to take care of them, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable."

Lu Yaowen had not expected that the two children would be so miserable, and was even more grateful that Weng Xiao escaped. "I am sorry for all the trouble."

"Liang Bin had a plan, so we didn't dare to act rashly. The two children suffered a little."

Seeing that Lin Changqing still had the mind to talk in detail, he should be fine.

"Seven days ago, the government salvaged a female corpse. It was completely soaked and rotten. No one knew what it looked like. Only a silver lock on the body could identify it."

This is definitely not insignificant news, Lu Yaowen guessed.

"Is that Weng Xiao's thing?"

No, it's a female corpse! But this information only flashed through Lu Yaowen's mind, so fast that he didn't catch it at all.

"Well, that scum went to claim the body, cremated it on the same day, and put the ashes together with Weng Xiao's mother. Humph, there was not even a ceremony, just a few drops of cat urine when claiming the body."

"Weng Xiao wants his father to give up the investigation. He is very brave and careful. You friends are also very kind and have helped a lot. Thank you very much."

Lin Changqing didn't like what he said. Why did he need to thank Weng Xiao on his behalf? He was already feeling a little sad when he was with him.

"Friends, that's what I should do."

"Where are the brother and sister now?"

"Since Weng Xiao's 'corpse' was found, I naturally went to his house to ask for him. Fortunately, I arrived in time. If I had been a day later, the brother and sister would have been sold."

"This is outrageous! How can the Imperial College tolerate such a person?" Lu Yaowen really despised the behavior of this scholar.

"I am not so easy to bully. I was well prepared before I went there. I took the Debao brothers and sisters I found and reported to Shuntian Prefecture. The people in my mansion were detained by Jiang Liangcai innocently. How can they suffer in vain?"

"I'm afraid there's a scapegoat."

Lin Changqing sneered. It was indeed a small steward of the Jiang family who came out to confess his crime. Jiang Liangcai paid a hundred taels of silver as compensation. Shuntian Prefecture Yin was trying to smooth things over, so he had no choice but to give up.

"They are recuperating in my villa. They are fine now. I will take you to see them later."

"Thank you."

Lin Changqing waved his hands. Knowing that Weng Xiaoxiao was safe and that someone was helping her, he finally felt at ease and no longer worried.

Although he hasn't figured out why this is happening.

"What's Weng Xiao's plan?" He faked his death and escaped, and he would definitely not come back in the short term.

"He wants to travel around, and I'm helping him get a travel permit."

He didn't want Weng Xiao to take risks, but he had no reason to stop her. That was what she wanted to do, and he should respect that. However, he suddenly felt powerless, as he had no control over many things.

Since Weng Xiao sent someone over, it was a good opportunity to clarify in person where Debao and his sister were going. Lin Changqing took Lu Yaowen to the villa.

Debao and his sister were very surprised to see Lu Yaowen, and they never expected that it was Weng Xiaoxiao who invited Mr. Lu over.

The two of them cried with joy. As long as Weng Xiaoxiao was fine, it didn't matter to them if they suffered a little.

Looking at the two emaciated children, Lu Yaowen said distressedly: "You have suffered."

Debao raised his arm and wiped his eyes. "Mr. Lu, this little suffering is nothing. Let her not feel guilty. Fortunately, she escaped. If she was caught, how could we save her? It is impossible to save her..."

Lu Yaowen nodded. Weng Xiao was not yet an adult, and even if he was, no one had the right to intervene in other people's family affairs. "What are your plans for the future? Weng Xiao left money for you, and his royalties were given to you."

"I want to stay in Beijing. Weng Xiao will come back eventually. I want to use her money to make more for her." His sister is only nine years old. It is not suitable for her to stay anywhere. It is too hard to take her out by herself. He can only stay and do some small business. He believes that he can make it big. With money and people, he will not be bullied easily.

Lu Yaowen agreed with this idea, but where could the two children go?

He looked up at Lin Changqing and said, "Mr. Lin, is it convenient for you to arrange a place for them?"

Lin Changqing glanced at the people in the room and understood Lu Yaowen's concerns. He was afraid of revenge from the Jiang family, so it was most appropriate to arrange for the person to stay in his own shop.

It's just a job, it's not a big deal.

"What industry do you want to enter?"

Debao didn't dare to be greedy, and bowed, "Debao will listen to the boss's arrangements, and won't be picky, just hope to learn more."

This guy almost lost his life for Weng Xiao. He is a real man.

"Well, there is enough for you to learn in any field. As for how much you can learn, it depends on your own ability."

The feeling of powerlessness in dealing with this matter made Lin Changqing sober up a lot.

If his father had real power, if the Marquis's Mansion had great prestige, if he had worn an official robe, in any case, he would not have had to go to the hall to be humiliated, and the case would not have been settled so hastily.

If Weng Xiaoxiao fell into the Jiang family, how could he save her? Could he save her?

I would think about these things when I couldn't sleep at night. I had to rely on myself to achieve what I wanted. In just a few days, I became more stable.

As for the way out, I have thought about it a lot.

He had no hope of passing the imperial examination, so he had to ask his father to donate a small official position to him. He needed a platform to strengthen himself.
