Before we knew it, the winter moon was coming, and there was not much time left before the reunion of New Year's Eve.

The farmers have already started to live in winter, and the businessmen who are a little far away from home have also begun to speed up their pace to rush towards home.

However, as the commander of the Great Inspector's Eagle Guard, Hu Xiaolin, who had rarely left the capital and more than ten Great Inspector's Eagle Guards, not only did not intend to return to the capital at this time, but on the contrary, they were still accelerating away from the capital.

The reason why they had to leave the capital in this cold winter moon was naturally the disappearance of Princess Zhu Jinxuan of Xianyou.

Hu Xiaolin, who had a perfect idea in his heart, had been waiting for the Tianjin Wei for nearly a month but had no gains. Even if he could calm down, the emperor and the queen could no longer calm down. In addition, in order to relieve his pressure, Jiang Zhun, the governor of Dongchang, said from time to time in front of the emperor. He continued to stay in Tianjin Wei, adding fuel to the fire. It was already a great thing that Hu Xiaolin had been in Tianjin Wei for so long.

In winter, the dry season makes the navigation of the canal a problem. Although the small passenger ship used to transport people can still be passed, Hu Xiaolin, who had spent nearly a month in Tianjin Wei, knew in his heart that he had no time to take the passenger ship slowly to the south.

So he and his men all changed into two hundred miles of fast horses and galloped south along the post station.

He believed that because of his misjudgment, he must have been behind Zhu Jinxuan for a long time, so he urgently needed to shorten the distance.

However, he was not blindly rushing to the road. During the break, he would always take out the map and discuss with his subordinates.

The focus of the discussion was, one was where Zhu Jinxuan had already arrived at this time, and the second was which road Zhu Jinxuan chose to rush to Jiangnan.

The easiest and labor-saving way to go from the capital to Jiangnan is naturally to go south along the canal, but they have been guarding the canal ferry for nearly a month but have gained nothing. Obviously, Zhu Jinxuan did not choose this road.

Another more ancient and traditional route is to go to Kaifeng, the eastern capital, and then turn south.

But they didn't dare to confirm. After all, Hu Xiaolin was so sure that Zhu Jinxuan would choose to go on the water, but in the end he wasted his time.

This is enough to show that Zhu Jinxuan had seen through them and was prepared for a long time, so she might choose to change the route halfway.

After all, although the route they discussed was mainstream, they were mostly considering bulk food and marching. They were alone on the road, and the route they could choose was too much.

Unless there are natural dangers between each other and insurmountable situations, there will definitely be roads for each other to pass through. Even if it is not an official road, it is enough to walk alone.

This is the situation that Hu Xiaolin is most worried about.

Zhu Jinxuan is smart enough, so she should be able to turn danger into safety as long as there is an official or an orderly place. But if she goes on the road alone and encounters robbers who cut the path, or even thieves who fall into the bride, then with her three-legged kung fu, she may encounter an unexpected situation.

If this really happens, then he and his men should not think about New Year's Day or reunion. Just wiping their necks by themselves may also protect their family members.

But no matter how anxious they were, when there were only more than ten people, besides praying for God's blessing in their hearts, they could only place their hopes on the people in the East Factory.

However, in order to prevent the secret from being leaked, the people from the East Factory did not know that the target of arresting the person posted on it would be the dignified Princess Xianyou, which led to some situations that Jiang Zong could directly pick up a knife and chop people after seeing it.

That is to act like nothing happened.

In addition, as the end of the year approaches, everyone is busy making benefits for each other and having a good New Year, so they are very comfortable using this as an excuse to get benefits, but very few people are really busy doing things and trying to find them.

...

Zhu Jinxuan, who didn't know about these things, immediately learned her lesson after leaving Baoding Mansion, changed her clothes, bought a lot of wealth, hired two or three feet, and pretended to be a humble little businessman. After some bargaining and paying 10% of the goods, she joined a large caravan with an escort agency to escort. As Hu Xiaolin and others guessed, she was on the road to Kaifeng Mansion.

Although it took a lot of roads to go south compared to going south directly, it was much safer.

After all, Kaifeng Prefecture was once regarded as a capital during the Taizu era, and it was still a relatively prosperous existence. There were many pedestrians and caravans and post stations on the official roads, so there were no need to worry too much about meeting bandits on the road.

Moreover, Zhu Jinxuan also felt that the person who was following her behind would definitely not guess that she would take such a long way.

The only problem is that the time it took also seemed to be nearly doubled than the original plan.

...

Ningbo Mansion finally returned to its original appearance due to the departure of many people from the martial arts world. At this time, Li Dong and Wang Fugui discovered that Bai Shier seemed to have not appeared for more than half a month, and he disappeared again.

For Wang Fugui, this was not a big problem. He had not received the order Li Dong said so far, so he did not have to worry that the secret he revealed to Bai Shier would implicate him.

Moreover, Bai Shier disappeared because of this incident, which was also a good thing for him. At least, when Su Liangfeng escaped, he did not have to worry about Bai Shier's attitude, which would have a negative impact on him. He could "do his best" and try his best to clear his responsibilities.

Li Dong is not as lucky as Wang Fugui.

Not long ago, he received an order written by Jiang Zhun, the governor of the East Factory. During the order, he immediately controlled Bai Shier and waited for the people he sent to take over.

It is not only an honor for him to be lucky enough to receive the handwritten order from the governor, but also a great opportunity for him. As a small person who can only stay in Ningbo Prefecture, as long as he does things well this time, he will definitely be transferred to the capital, so that Jiang Zhun can be more beautiful in his eyes and will definitely rise to the top in the future.

But this huge opportunity now turned into a sharp sword hanging over his head.

Because he had previously ordered the person he was watching to recall because of the handle on Bai Shier.

If the confidant sent by Jiang Zong knew about this situation, he would be afraid that the next moment he would be imprisoned, tortured, and die in a miserable and humble manner. No one would know or anyone would have mercy.

So, under such fear, he began to go crazy and asked his subordinates to search for Bai Shier's whereabouts.
