“Yes, this subordinate also thinks so. Xing Danqing is a felon of the imperial court. If this token really belongs to him, we might be able to take advantage of this bandit extermination to capture him as well!” As Ji Yan spoke, an unconcealable look of anticipation rose in his eyes.
“Go investigate and confirm the news as soon as possible,” Rong Zhan ordered.
Ji Yan nodded in agreement, put down the curtain, and left.
“Wait a moment.” Rong Zhan seemed to have thought of something and stopped Ji Yan.
Ji Yan hurriedly opened the curtain, stuck his head in, and asked respectfully, “Master, what other instructions do you have?”
“There’s something you have to help me settle…” Rong Zhan thought for a moment, then lowered his voice and gave Ji Yan an order. Ji Yan had a serious expression on his face until he heard what Rong Zhan said.
Instantly, Ji Yan revealed an expression of doubt.
“Do you understand?” Rong Zhan narrowed his eyes and asked.
Ji Yan’s face was filled with shock. He nodded as if he was pounding garlic and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, I understand…”
After saying that, Ji Yan did not dare to delay for even a moment. He hurriedly put down the curtain and left.
In contrast, Rong Zhan closed his eyes indifferently and continued to take a nap.
As the night deepened, time flew by.
The next morning, Gu Qingxue was woken up by a series of knocks on the door.
“Brother Lin, Dumby, Lingbao, come out quickly! Someone is here to give you gifts!” Zhou Xiaohua’s cheerful voice came from outside the door.
Gu Qingxue opened her eyes in a daze and looked in the direction of the door in a daze. “Is that Xiaohua’s voice?” Zhou Xiaohua was Lingbao’s best friend, and Gu Qingxue had a good impression of her.
“It’s Xiaohua. Xiaohua is here to play with me! Mother, quickly help me put on my clothes.” Lingbao was suddenly energized. She picked up her own clothes and stuffed them into Gu Qingxue’s hands.
Gu Qingxue endured her sleepiness and helped Dumby and Lingbao put on their clothes. When she turned her head, she saw that Gu Lin had already put on his clothes and was currently struggling to fasten his belt.
She could not help but laugh as she went forward to help Gu Lin fasten his belt. After Gu Qingxue helped him fasten his belt, she caressed his little face. “Put on your shoes and bring your younger brother and sister to go first. Mother will be right there.”
Gu Lin smiled and replied with a smile.
Looking at Gu Lin’s long and narrow eyes, Gu Qingxue subconsciously thought of Rong Zhan.
As expected, the more she looked at him, the more she felt that Xiao Lin’s eyes were exactly the same as that man’s.
It was strange to say that even though they were two completely unrelated people, they could actually look so similar.
Gu Lin pulled Dumby and Lingbao who had put on their shoes and ran out of the courtyard happily to open the door for Zhou Xiaohua.
Seeing that the three children were still as lively as before, Gu Qingxue also let out a sigh of relief.
She had been worried that the three children would be scared out of their wits after what had happened last night.
Fortunately, the three children were still young and did not have much of a concept of death. In addition, she had told them last night that this matter could not be spread out, so they were able to let it go quickly.
Gu Qingxue got up and put on the light red dress. After swelling up her long hair with a wooden hairpin, she put on her shoes and followed them out of the courtyard.
As a result, Gu Qingxue saw a carriage parked in front of his house as soon as she went out. At this moment, a familiar-looking secret guard was carrying all kinds of delicious food out of the carriage for fun.

“Hey, isn’t this Lady Gu?” Madam Wang, who had come out to watch the show, said sourly when she saw Gu Qingxue go out, “Lady Gu is really capable. A few days ago, she took some money from the town to buy food. Today, another man rushed over to give you something. You are really lucky!”
