Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were also sitting on warm brick beds, but it was the one in Jiang Yue’s room. Xue Shi was naturally carried out of the rocking bed and placed on Jiang Yue’s bed.

Xue Shi would cry whenever he was ignored, even if it was just for a moment. His voice was earth-shattering. Jiang Yue really could not stand this little brat who loved to make his presence known. Fortunately, Xue Yan was very patient. Although he did not coax him much, as long as he shook Xue Shi’s rattle drum to show that they were paying attention to him, Xue Shi would recover and stop crying. He even widened his eyes and looked at Xue Yan and Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were used to it at this point.

The seasons were changing and so was the temperature. Liu Guixia and the others had already persuaded Shao Youyue to move to the front. The small house behind was getting too cold. Even if there was a brick bed, it would not be able to warm everyone up well. Fortunately, Zi Cui and the others had bought a lot of high-quality charcoal. Once the weather turned cold, they would start burning them. At this point, it burned 24 hours a day. The charcoal was in a few charcoal basins, and it was burning red. It was so cold that there was no smoke at all. There was also charcoal burning in the incense cage. In addition, there was a small hand stove to keep the room warm. Therefore, the room at the back was not cold at all. Seeing this situation, Liu Guixia and the others did not persuade her to come to the front any longer.

At this moment, in the small room at the back, Empress Shao was sitting on the brick bed. Her legs were covered with a thick blanket, and she was holding an exquisite small hand warmer in her hand. She was smiling as she watched Xia Han, who was sitting at the edge of the brick bed, boil tea on the small table on the brick bed. The small room was exceptionally cozy. As days passed, many things were starting to feel more comfortable for her.

For example, here, she didn’t have to worry about getting hurt every day.

Xia Han and the others did not have to pay too much attention to the food. It was not like before. In the palace, everything that entered her mouth not only had to be tested for poison with silver needles, but Xia Han and the others would have to try it first. After confirming that it was fine, only then would they dare give it to her.

Zicui wasn’t around because she went to town to buy some things early in the morning.

She was afraid that there was not enough charcoal, so she left. She also needed to buy something else.

Miao Han was sitting in front of a charcoal brazier, sewing.

Xue Liu was also sitting in front of the charcoal basin, but she was not doing needlework. Instead, she was reading the medical books that Doctor Shen had given her. Xue Liu felt that they were very useful and wanted to read them thoroughly and remember everything in this book.

It was almost noon when Zicui returned with a carriage.

When she came back, she even brought back a letter.

“Master, Quanping Inn gave this to me. They said it was written by the General.” Zi Cui hurried herself to warm her body up in front of the charcoal basin. Only when she was no longer cold did she dare to walk to her master’s side. She took out a letter and gave it to her master.

Shao Youyue put down the small hand warmer in her hand and took the letter to read.

Upon seeing the contents of the letter, Shao Youyue’s beautiful brows furrowed slightly as she muttered, “Aren’t they there too…”

She had received a letter from her third brother a few days ago, informing her that her son was also likely to be in the South. That child, Xue Yan, was naturally more likely to be her son at this point.

Of course, she was also informed of the route from the Imperial Capital to Lingshan Town.

However, she did not expect that they were also on that line.

Her third brother wrote that the clues he found were in that area as well. She did not know what he was looking for. It seemed like he was looking for someone, but as days passed… it did not seem so…

Xia Han looked at the letter in their Empress’ hands and asked in puzzlement, “Is the general not looking at that area? Why does it not seem like he’s looking for His Highness the Crown Prince. Then who is the Empress Dowager looking

Zi Cui and the others didn’t know either..
