After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Tian Sheng, you did nothing wrong." Lin Shuyue said firmly, "Sister Yue doesn't think your actions were wrong. On the contrary, I think you were right not to go out and help."

Hearing this, Tiansheng looked at her blankly and forgot to cry.

"You are young, and it is a normal reaction for you to be afraid when encountering such a thing. Besides, have you ever thought about what the consequences would be if you rushed out regardless of everything?" Lin Shuyue looked at him quietly.

"I..." Tiansheng pursed his lips, his face turning pale as if he was thinking of something.

"You will die. Both you and Xiao Dengzi will die. No one will know the truth and no one will avenge you."

Lin Shuyue's tone was as firm as before. She looked at Tiansheng whose face was pale and sighed silently in her heart, what a sin.

Although Tiansheng was only two years younger than her, she had lived two lives after all. At Tiansheng's age, he would have been able to act like a spoiled child with his parents in his previous life, but now he witnessed with his own eyes the woman who had given them warmth, Aunt Man, being strangled to death, and he felt guilty about it.

"so..."

She touched Tiansheng's head and said, "You did the right thing. It is because you did not go out and saved your life that you have the opportunity to avenge Aunt Man and make the bad guys pay the price. Otherwise, Aunt Man would have died silently."

Tiansheng lowered his head in silence for a moment, then raised his head again, his eyes clear again, "Sister Yue, I will definitely avenge Aunt Man!"

Lin Shuyue nodded: "Well, I believe you. Then...what happened next?"

“I was so scared at the time, and they lowered their voices on purpose, so I couldn’t hear some of it clearly.

But I vaguely heard the strange man mention the snow disaster on the grassland, food, and said that the second prince would keep his promise.

But Shopkeeper Wu seemed a little angry, saying that You Menglan was a liar and ruined his master's plan. He also said that the Second Prince was not sincere and that if he still wanted to cooperate, he should let the Second Prince show his sincerity.

They had an unpleasant conversation and just said they would talk again next time.

After the man left, Shopkeeper Wu went back to the lobby and called someone to carry Aunt Man's body away.

It was then that I realized that there were people belonging to Manager Wu in the lobby.

After they all left, I found that Xiaodengzi had woken up, but he seemed to be frightened and didn't say anything. Then I took him over the wall and went out. "

Tiansheng took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and his eyes dimmed a little.

"After returning to the ruined temple, I couldn't help but tell Xiaoguizi and the others about Aunt Man's murder. Xiaodengzi even developed a high fever in the middle of the night.

When I woke up the next day, I realized that I shouldn’t have told them. The more people knew, the more danger there would be, so I told them not to tell anyone about it.”

"Then why do you want to speak out now? Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Shuyue was a little curious. Since he had kept it hidden for half a year, why did he reveal it now and go directly to the Jinyiwei?

Tiansheng pursed his lips and did not answer her question. Instead, he talked about why he was looking for Jinyiwei.

"Sister Yue, I heard from Aunt Man before that the real owner of Honghe Tower is the official who lives in the inner city.

That’s why I thought of looking for the Jinyiwei. They all say that the Jinyiwei are scary, but they often catch corrupt officials.”

Lin Shuyue nodded slightly. It was natural for her to think so. Aren’t the Jinyiwei a knife in the emperor’s hand?

He hits whoever he points at, showing no mercy to anyone. Which official in the capital city would not be afraid?

If you think about it carefully, it would be more appropriate to ask Jinyiwei to do this matter.

From the key pieces of information he heard, it could at least be confirmed that treason was committed, and the enemy was the Turkic Empire, and the second prince of the Turkic Empire was also involved.

From what Tiansheng said, it seems that the master behind Shopkeeper Wu has had dealings with the second prince of the Turkic Kingdom for a long time. And what is that Youmeng Flower?

I just don't know whether the owner behind Honghe Tower is involved, or if there is someone else behind Manager Wu.

After thinking for a while, she looked at Tiansheng and said soothingly, "Tiansheng, you stay here first. I have thought of a suitable person. I will take you to meet him when the time comes."

Tiansheng quickly stood up upon hearing this and shook his head to refuse: "Sister Yue, thank you, but I have to go back to the ruined temple. Xiaogui and the others will be worried."

"Listen to me. As for Xiaoguizi and the others, I'll ask Qingsheng to go to the ruined temple to pick them up now."

After saying this, she asked Qingzhi at the door to tell Qingsheng, and asked Qinghe to take a little maid to the clothing store to buy twelve sets of ordinary clothes for children.

After Qingzhi finished delivering the message, she asked Qingzhi to take the remaining maids and servants to clean up two rooms in the back row of houses near the gate.

Seeing her arrangements, Tiansheng knew that it would be ungrateful if he refused again, so he quickly washed his hands and followed the maids and servants to clean up the back room.

Lin Shuyue did not stop them when she saw this. She did not intend to feed Tiansheng and his children with good food and drink.

Now she kept Tiansheng and a few others behind mainly because she was afraid that the people behind the scenes would find out something was wrong and find Tiansheng and the others through Aunt Man, and then kill them to silence them.

After all, Aunt Man often fed Tiansheng and the others, and the people in the kitchen of Honghe Tower knew about it more or less, but they just turned a blind eye out of pity for them.

It was almost dark when Qingsheng came back with a cart full of nervous and anxious little kids.

Seeing the children standing in a row nervously, Lin Shuyue chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous. I won't eat you."

After saying that, she turned to the newly bought maidservant beside her and said, "Qiuxia, give them the new clothes."

Except for Tiansheng, the other children's eyes lit up when they heard about the new clothes, but then they became a little uneasy.

Tiansheng glanced at their black hands in the small cabinet and blushed a little, then said carefully: "Sister Yue, please give me the clothes. Their hands are not washed and will dirty the new clothes."

Lin Shuyue nodded, motioned Qiuxia to give him the clothes, and then said: "The hot water is already boiled in the kitchen. Changle will take you to the bathroom. You can have dinner after taking a bath. Tiansheng, you are the oldest, you should take care of them more. If there is anything you don't understand, just ask Changle."

After Changle led the six children to the bathroom at the edge of the back house, Lin Shuyue returned to the study to think about Tiansheng's words.

When they arrived at the bathroom, Changle asked the children to put their clothes on clean stools, and then called Tiansheng, Xiaoguizi and Xiaochahu, three older children, to go to the kitchen to get hot water.

Soon, the bath room was steaming hot. Several children helped each other rub mud on their bodies. Seeing the thick mud and dirt on their bodies, several children blushed for a rare moment.

Little beggars like them don't take baths often. At most they go to the river to wash their hands and faces.

Xiao Guizi peeked outside and found that Changle had already left. He then asked Tiansheng why Sister A Yue wanted to take them home. They were still confused.

When the other children heard what he said, they quickly came out of the water, walked over with their naked butts, and looked at Tiansheng nervously.
