Liu Yunxiang entered the city in the afternoon. The spring sunshine was warm. This place was different from Yangui City. It was more prosperous after all. There were many shops on both sides and pedestrians in twos and threes.

She led the horse and looked around. The fishery in Yuezhou was developed, but there were not many people growing grain. Zhang Qi saw the business opportunity and opened a grain shop here.

"Whose child is there? Why don't you see his parents?"

"Oh, this kid is so good-looking, just like the lotus boy."

"He seems to be looking for his mother."

Two aunties said as they passed by.

Liu Yunxiang followed their gazes and saw a little guy wearing a light-colored thin coat and a cashmere hat not far ahead walking this way with his short legs dangling.

The little guy is about a week old and is still not very steady in walking. He is holding a candy man in his hand, licking it and looking around.

"mother!"

Liu Yunxiang's milky voice was very tender and light. Liu Yunxiang came closer and found that the little guy was really good-looking. He had single eyelids but was very energetic. The tail of his eyes was slightly raised, his nose was pretty, his mouth was not big, and his lips were pink and tender.

She is really well-raised at home, and she is all plump, especially the fat baby on her little face, which is so cute.

When the little guy saw her, his eyes widened, and then he grinned and drooled.

"mother!"

He seemed to have found the right target and wanted to pounce on him, but then a man in plain clothes came out from the study next to him and picked him up.

Liu Yunxiang didn't see the man's face, only his back holding the little guy as he walked forward. He was very thin, and his robe seemed too loose.

The man kissed the little guy's face, and the little guy lay on the man's shoulder and kept laughing.

Liu Yunxiang looked away, then got on his horse, intending to ride forward for a while. When he passed the father and son, he vaguely heard the man's voice.

"The Master said: A gentleman has nine thoughts: seeing and thinking, listening and thinking, thinking of warmth and beauty, looking and respecting, speaking and thinking of loyalty, doing things with respect, doubting and questioning, being angry and thinking of difficulty, seeing and thinking of meaning."

She was laughing here. The child is so young, so he must be a little too early to behave like a gentleman.

After walking for a while, he finally saw the signboard of Lingyun Grain Store. Liu Yunxiang dismounted his horse and hurried into the store.

After asking her questions, the shopkeeper took her into the backyard. Xingyi was catching ants in the yard when he saw Liu Yunxiang, he got up and ran over.

"mother!"

At the Yuezhou Post House, Jin Yanxiang washed his clothes and put them up one by one. As soon as he freed his hands, he saw the little guy running over.

"Yan'er, eat."

Jin Yan stepped forward and picked up the little guy, "Brother Yan, Jin Yan won't eat, but you can't eat too much, it will damage your teeth."

The little guy quickly opened his mouth to show Jin Yan, "It's not bad."

Jin Yan burst out laughing, and then saw Lu Changan coming in, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Sir, Mrs. He has just come here to beg you for Mr. He's body. Fortunately you are not here. Judging from her aggressiveness, she probably wants to scratch you."

Lu Changan smiled, "I can't beat him, but I can hide."

"You are a gentleman and don't do anything to women."

"I'm really afraid of her."

Lu Changan rubbed his nose. The last time he went to search the He family, Mrs. He refused to let the officials touch her husband's belongings. When he went up to persuade her, she pushed him up, which scared him so much that he almost hid in a tree.

He Ziyue of Yuezhou Prefecture was murdered at home, and the court attached great importance to it. As the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture, he was specially ordered to supervise the case.

But it has been five days since I came here, and I still have no clue. The day is getting warmer and warmer, and He Ziyue's body has begun to rot. It is indeed time to return it to the He family.

At this time, his subordinate Chen Heng came over, and Lu Changan asked him to inform the He family that they could go to the government office to collect the body. But as soon as Chen Heng left, he felt something was wrong.

"No, I have to get the body examined before the He family does."

The more He Zi was killed with random knives, it was logical that there was nothing good to do, but he always felt that something was not right.

Liu Yunxiang and Qu Moran met here. It turned out that Zijin was injured at the time, and Qu Moran could only take her away first. Although there were some twists and turns, fortunately everyone was fine.

Liu Yunxiang held the intention in one hand and pointed on the map with the other, "The water route is faster and safer than the land route. We will go south along the Grand Canal from Yuezhou, get off the boat in Xiangzhou, and walk a short distance to the southwest to get there.

Yaowang Valley. Pick up Jinyan and Xingzhi at Yaowang Valley and rest for a while before we decide whether to continue south or west."

Qu Moran nodded, "I'll follow you anyway. I'll go wherever you go."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "But if we leave Da Rong, we may never come back."

Qu Moran caressed his lower abdomen, "Besides Master and Old Man Qu, I have nothing else to worry about."

Seeing his son's eagerness, Liu Yunxiang urged him to set off the next day.

The shopkeeper helped them contact the merchant ship and took them all the way to the ferry. While waiting for the merchant ship to load the goods, Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to buy some snacks on the street so that Xingyi could eat them on the way.

Although it's spring, it's warm and cold at first, and it's quite cold today.

Liu Yunxiang made a small cloak for Xingyi and wrapped it tightly around her, leaving only her small face exposed.

The little girl was curious about everything and looked around with her big eyes.

"It's a big boat, it's beautiful." The little girl pointed to a place for Liu Yunxiang to see.

Liu Yunxiang looked over and saw that it was a painted boat, hung with red silk and lanterns. It was really beautiful. She looked away and was thinking about going over to have a few words with the owner of the caravan. After all, if she wanted to ride on someone else's boat, she had to have a good relationship.

At this time, Qu Moran next to him exclaimed: "Someone fell into the lake!"

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly looked over and saw a man splashing in the water. He obviously couldn't swim. Everyone on the boat looked panicked, but no one jumped in to save him.

Maybe the caravan guys here didn't see it, maybe no one paid attention to it. In short, everyone was busy moving goods, and no one went to rescue people.

Seeing this, Liu Yunxiang hurriedly conveyed his thoughts to Qu Moran, and then hurried over.

When she ran over there, she took off her outer clothes, ran a few steps and jumped into the water. She could swim, but the water was too cold. After a little time to get used to it, she hurried towards the man.

From her point of view, she could only see white clothes floating on the water, and occasionally a head popped out, but it was floating and sinking, as if she had lost the strength to struggle.

When Liu Yunxiang passed by, she couldn't even see the white clothes. She could only take a deep breath and dip under the water to look for him.

Seeing that the white clothes were sinking, she swam over with all her strength, then dragged the person behind her, got out of the water first, and then swam to the shore.

Qu Moran found a bamboo pole, and when she swam closer, he grabbed it and soon reached the shore. It only took a lot of effort to drag the man up.

Liu Yunxiang didn't bother to take a breath and hurriedly turned the man over. He wanted to see if he could be saved, but was surprised when he saw the man's face.

"Lu Changan!"
