The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chapter 205 Exile 32

This courtyard is actually more like a living place than an office area.

Chaoyao found nothing but some daily necessities in there, and no other documents.

But she was not discouraged because for large families, the study was usually separated from the bedroom.

She looked around and found the largest and most luxurious stone hall, which was brightly lit and guarded.

In fact, there were not many people working inside, but these people were still taking turns on duty.

Chao Yao slowly walked into the hall and found that it was more like a place for court meetings. If she guessed correctly, this place should be the center of a country, similar to the imperial palace in Shangjincheng.

There is indeed a study at the back, where full-length portraits of every monarch are hung.

The latest full-length portrait is of the two people lying on the bed just now.

"Colonel, the king's only son has been searched for so many years but still hasn't been found. Should we hold a meeting of the gentry to select the next king?"

When Chao Yao was about to flip through some books, he suddenly heard a man's voice in a corner.

Although the voice was very soft, she still heard it.

Another male voice replied: "Even if he is chosen, what can he do? He is just a puppet and cannot really make the decision."

"But the king is old, and other countries are in turmoil and war. If our country is not stable enough, how long can our country last?"

"These are not things we can think about. Besides, judging from the situation, Wang Ye can only live for a few more years."

"But the king can no longer lead us to fight on the front lines!"

"As long as he is still here, that is the faith in the hearts of all our people!"

"Alas! When I was on duty two days ago, I heard others discussing that if the Gentlemen's Association is really to be reopened, they will most likely choose Suoya from the aristocratic family to be the next king."

"Sawyer? Oh, that wimp?"

"No matter how much of a loser he is, he is from the Suo family, which is an old and powerful family in our country. With such a powerful family as a backing, the country can be more stable."

"I remember that their family has always been guarding the border. The Jin Kingdom that is adjacent to us is the border country they are guarding, right?"

Chao Yao was stunned when she heard this. Jin Kingdom, that was the country she was in now.

"Yes, that entire border has always been guarded by their family for more than two hundred years."

"That border has always been stable, and it receives a lot of taxes every year. It's a pity that the Jin Kingdom used that border as a place of exile, and we can't get much."

The conversation I overheard unexpectedly today was so valuable. I smiled at Chao Yao and realized that after searching for a long time, I finally got it without any effort.

Considering their respective interests, the biggest suspect who harmed her parents is most likely the Suo family.

Being able to identify Chao Tiancai's identity on the same day, even without verifying it and just guessing, was able to do this. It was obvious that someone from above gave the order.

It’s a pity that the people who executed the orders were not smart or decisive enough to deliver a fatal blow with one blow. Instead, they had to think of so many twists and turns.

But even if they wanted to give Chao Tiancai a fatal blow, they had no way to do so. With the amulet she gave to her parents, they couldn't hurt them at all.

"These are not things we should know about. Stay on duty and stop chatting. If someone hears us, we'll be in big trouble."

The two people slowly stopped talking. Chao Yao originally planned to look for the Suo family, but then he thought about it and decided to just hand the matter over to his grandparents.

Although I don’t know why my grandparents have reached this point and only have Chao Tiancai as their child, at least it is very important to know that Chao Tiancai exists.

In this case, let him return to his roots as soon as possible.

Chao Yao returned to the quaint courtyard and had a dream.

In her dream, she presented Chao Tiancai's entire life journey from birth to the present, so that her grandparents could see it clearly.

She doesn't have to worry about anything from now on. As long as these two are willing, they should be able to find it soon.

As for the Suo family, we will deal with them slowly later.

After finishing all these things, Chao Yao returned to his home.

The next day, when everyone else in the family woke up, Chao Yao gave Chao Tiancai and his wife each an amulet.

"Dad, my brother and I will help you from now on. We have already planted all the crops in the fields. Now we just need to wait for them to grow up. My brother and I don't have much to do at home, so if we go to help you, we can complete the progress sooner."

Chaotian disagreed, "You two are still young, even if you don't have anything to do at home, you can just lie down and rest. Dad and mom are not afraid of being tired, as long as you two are well. When it's time for dinner, you can come and deliver the food, and you can cook different food for us every day."

No matter what Chao Yao said, Chao Tiancai and Yang Tiao Tiao disagreed.

The children are still young. Even though Chaoyao is engaged now, they still feel that the child is still young and she will always be a child.

Chaoyao didn't care if she couldn't convince him, so she just stayed at home with her brother and waited for them obediently.

When it was time for dinner, she drove over there early in her carriage. There was a lot of food prepared in the carriage, including vegetables, fruits, and desserts.

Chao Tiancai was becoming more and more like a rough man, eating with big mouthfuls and very fast.

Yang Piaotiao was still slow and leisurely. She wanted to eat faster, but her stomach would feel uncomfortable if she did so, so she just let herself go.

Just eat slowly, those soldiers won’t scold her anyway.

"Dad, can we wait for you guys to get off work in here this afternoon?"

Chao Yao looked at them expectantly and then he sighed.

My son and daughter are so clingy that there’s really nothing we can do.

Who makes him a good father that makes his children reluctant to leave him?

"If you really want to follow me, you can, but don't get out of the carriage. Otherwise, if others see us, who knows what they will do. You also know that there are a lot of people here, and Mom and Dad are afraid that they can't guarantee your safety."

Chao Yao and Chao Yuebai were very excited when they heard that they could stay here. Chao Yuebai quickly made a promise: "Dad, don't worry, I will never leave the carriage! I will always follow my sister. Wherever my sister goes, I will go."

"Okay, okay. I don't know why my sons and daughters are so attached to me. Maybe they love me too much."

Yang Tiaotiao laughed so hard that she fell forward and backward and almost choked on the food in her mouth.
