The New Year in Yujia Village is extremely lively, but the scene in the capital is quite different.

The pass is thousands of miles away from the capital.

Zhang Yuan dressed in disguise and kept a low profile along the way.

Finally, on New Year's Eve, I entered Prince Jing's mansion.

When Zhang Yuan appeared, Lu Zhiwan was very surprised and instantly guessed that something had happened to Lu Dingjiang.

In the study of Prince Jing's mansion.

Sheng Jing and Lu Zhiwan stood side by side, with Zhang Yuan, who looked exhausted, standing in front of them.

Zhang Yuan bowed and presented Lu Dingjiang's handwritten letter, saying, "The general ordered me to rush to the capital day and night. Please take a look, Princess!"

Lu Zhiwan took the letter but did not read it immediately. Instead, she asked, "But something happened to my father?"

Zhang Yuan thought about it and did not hide it: "The prince and his wife are missing, and now their lives and deaths are unknown!"

He didn't tell Qiao Shuyuan that she was pregnant, firstly because he was afraid of upsetting Lu Zhiwan.

Secondly, no one in the capital knew that Qiao Shuyuan was pregnant. If no one said anything, it would mean it didn’t exist.

But Sheng Jing's expression changed instantly, because he knew that Qiao Shuyuan was pregnant.

Sheng Jing's face looked very ugly, but the candlelight in the study flickered, and Lu Zhiwan's mind was on Lu Dingjiang, so no one noticed Sheng Jing's abnormality.

Lu Zhiwan was shocked and angry: "What happened? How come Zhiyan and Shuyuan are missing?"

Zhang Yuan bowed his head and said, "The general said that once you read the letter, everything will become clear."

Sheng Jing reached out to support the trembling Lu Zhiwan and comforted her, "Zhiwan, don't worry, first see what your father-in-law said."

Zhang Yuan is Lu Dingjiang's right-hand man, and also the vanguard deputy general of the Tiger Wing Army.

Its importance is self-evident!

Now that Lu Dingjiang has been sent back from afar to deliver a letter, I am afraid the situation is very bad.

Lu Zhiwan was anxious and confused, but after hearing Sheng Jing's words, she regained some of her thoughts.

I opened the letter with trembling hands, and at first glance I felt dizzy.

The whole person was shaking even more violently.

"The Lu family is colluding with the enemy and plotting a rebellion?"

"What a serious crime! I'm afraid my Lu family can't bear it!"

Lu Zhiwan was now shocked and frightened. According to the contents of Lu Dingjiang's letter, many people and things quickly passed through her mind.

Sheng Jing's face instantly darkened. It turned out to be the crime of treason!

If this succeeds, it will be a serious crime punishable by execution of the entire family!

After thinking about it, there are only a few people who can target the Lu family in this way.

Zhang Yuan also showed disbelief on his face. He knew that someone in the capital was targeting the Lu family, but he never expected that the charge was treason and treason!

The Lu family has done his three brothers a favor, and he must not let anything happen to the Lu family.

Lu Zhiwan was filled with hatred. Her lips turned pale without a trace of blood. "Shen Siwei's name is on it. What role does the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion play?"

"Uncle...what does he know?"

At this point, Lu Zhiwan had no choice but to suspect everyone related to Shen Siwei.

The Shen family of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

The Xu family of the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

It is well known in the capital that the Xu family and the Lu family are not on good terms.

This discord was very subtle before Lu Zhiwan and Lu Zhiyan got married.

But after Lu Zhiwan and Lu Zhiyan got married, everything was revealed.

Sheng Jing embraced Lu Zhiwan,

Lu Zhiwan leaned weakly on Sheng Jing.

"Brother Jing, my uncle...even though he doesn't treat us well, he is still my mother's family. If we are really related to him, how will my mother deal with it?"

Lu Zhiwan was very confused.

Although Lu Shenshi is partial to her, Lu Zhiwan, as her biological daughter, still subconsciously worries about Lu Shenshi in such matters.

Sheng Jing looked down at the letter. The letter contained not only Lu Dingjiang's handwriting, but also the list of traitors.

His face was gloomy and he ordered in a deep voice: "Yu Yi, notify the Black Feather Guard to thoroughly investigate all the people on this list. Be sure to check every detail. I want to see what the mastermind behind this is planning."

"Subordinates take orders!"

Yu Yi appeared silently, memorized the list, turned around and disappeared into the study.

Sheng Jing looked at Zhang Yuan and said, "You have traveled thousands of miles and worked hard, but we cannot alert the enemy yet. You should not stay in the capital for long, as your father-in-law still needs you."

Zhang Yuan understood what he meant, and he also knew that not only was undercurrents surging in the capital, but Lu Dingjiang and the Tiger Wing Army at the border were also treading on thin ice.

If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.

Besides, Shen Siwei is still at the checkpoint, and Zhang Yuan is worried.

Zhang Yuan clasped his fists and said, "I understand! Your Majesty, please rest assured!"

Sheng Jing nodded. Zhang Yuan came secretly and left secretly.

There was a sudden loud noise outside, and huge fireworks exploded in the air, illuminating the study room.

Sheng Jing silently embraced Lu Zhiwan without saying a word.

After the fifteenth day, Yujia Village returned to peace again.

Everything began to proceed in an orderly manner.

Years ago, the potatoes and sweet potatoes planted in the second room's backyard also sprouted. Because of the good feng shui, they grew exceptionally well.

After the New Year, the family is busy transplanting.

The first step is to find suitable land.

Yujia Village is not very large, but there are many wastelands outside the village.

According to the laws of Daliang, as much wasteland as possible can be reclaimed, and only one or two taels of silver are required per mu.

There are hundreds of acres of wasteland outside Yujia Village. If you take them all, it will only cost a hundred taels of silver.

The second wife made some plans and decided to take them all, of course with Youyou as her guarantor.

When they were discussing whether the seedlings grown in the backyard were enough to plant the 100 acres of land, Patriarch Wang and Old Patriarch Sun came to their door with Sun Chengshan.

The old patriarch Sun is old and intends to hand over the position of patriarch to Sun Chengshan.

I heard that the second branch of the Yu family was planning to buy land for reclaiming wasteland. No matter what they did, Patriarch Wang would follow them anyway.

Sun Chengshan said: "We shamelessly want to take advantage of Youyou."

An open and honest attitude is not offensive.

Anyway, some news about potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn were leaked last year.

Yu Lin said: "Our family is planning to open up so much land, Uncle Donglai and Uncle Chengshan should think about it again."

"In addition, we plan to breed the ones we bought last year. The first batch of harvest will be harvested in a month."

"It will take a month for potatoes, and another two months for sweet potatoes and corn."

"What I mean is that we will breed the seeds in the first half of the year, and then let the whole village follow suit and plant them in the second half of the year."

"First, we need to see what this thing is like, and second, we need to see how much it produces. If it is not inferior to rice and wheat, then it would be worthwhile to plant more of it."

Yu Lin's considerations were so thorough that neither Patriarch Wang nor the Sun family could find any fault with him.

Chief Wang said, "Three acres of land for potatoes and two acres of land for sweet potatoes. Even if we use all of them as seeds, I'm afraid a hundred acres of land is a bit too much, right?"

It really attracted people's attention that the second branch of the Yu family could take out one hundred taels of silver to buy land without saying a word.

No matter what, it would be great if my family could have some of his courage.

Yu Lin shook his head: "Our family has unanimously approved this matter. Even if the breeding is not enough, it is okay to plant rice first."
