The next day, before Liu Zhimo could go to the yamen, Ling Yi presented the results of his investigation in front of him.

Even though Liu Zhimo was mentally prepared, his heart was still heavy.

This was going to be tricky.

He told Ling Yi to arrange a patrol at home, there couldn't be any loopholes.

Ling Yi replied.

Liu Zhimo went to look for Mr. Luo with a serious face. Seeing him, Mr. Luo gave him a hand signal.

Once he entered the study room, he impatiently told Mr. Luo about the results of the investigation.

After Mr. Luo heard this, his eyebrows knitted together.

"This matter must be reported to the emperor. Let's see what the emperor has in mind."

Mr. Luo agreed, and told Liu Zhimo to quickly write a report to the Emperor.

It would be troublesome if those people found out.

Liu Zhimo's expression was somber as he nodded his head to say that he wanted to send Li Qingling and the others back to Ox-Head Village.

He had always been worried about them being here, afraid that something might happen to them.

"Do you want to send them back in a few days?"

"Tomorrow .. Send them back tomorrow. " He felt that the sooner the better. He couldn't drag this on any longer in case there was too much trouble. "You should go back too."

Mr. Luo frowned, he really wanted to say that he didn't want to go back, but when the words were about to reach his mouth, he swallowed them back. He had promised Liu Zhimo, so he couldn't go back on his words.

But to leave Liu Zhimo here alone, he was very worried.

"Should we wait until the emperor's order arrives before leaving? If we leave now, I'm afraid those people will notice us. "

He wasn't very willing to leave until he received the emperor's orders.

Liu Zhimo shook his head and told them to leave tomorrow.

He was also worried that if he left too late, he wouldn't be able to leave.

Mr. Luo sighed in his heart, "Then what do you plan to tell Xiao Ling?" Li Qingling was an intelligent person, it was very difficult to deceive her.

If he were to speak the truth, would she be willing to leave?

Liu Zhimo also thought of this question. His brows furrowed even more deeply as he did not have any confidence in being able to persuade Li Qingling.

Although that girl was easy to talk to, once she became stubborn, even ten oxen wouldn't be able to pull her back.

Thinking of this, he was a bit worried.

Mr. Luo glanced at him, and smiled, but he did not care, because he would be troubled by this matter.

He could only imagine, what kind of reaction Li Qingling would have when he opened his mouth. The scene must be .. It was very lively.

"Oh right, Old Man Xue should come with us, right?"

Liu Zhimo nodded and said yes.

He did not plan to let his family members stay here. He had to leave.

"If the guards escort us away, there won't be many people by your side. If they find out, they'll make their move in advance. But on your side .." The more he thought, the more worried he became. Mr. Luo closed his eyes, took a deep breath before opening them again. His eyes were deep, he did not dare think further.

"Grand Master, don't let your imagination run wild. It won't happen." Liu Zhimo comforted Mr. Luo, not letting him think about it in such a serious manner.

If he continued to think about it, he would feel even more reluctant to leave.

Mr. Luo's tiger-like eyes opened wide. How could he not know? Anything was possible. Speaking of this, he thought of He Zhao's family of four. He wondered if they would act against him on the way back.

It had to be known that they were Liu Zhimo's weak points. If he could grab hold of them, then they would become a threat to Liu Zhimo.

After Liu Zhimo finished listening to their words, his expression changed. He was completely focused on them, and had even forgotten about He Zhao, Wang Lin, and the other three families. If the four families were to ask their assassins to attack Li Qingling's group halfway, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Liu Zhimo clenched his fists tightly. What should he do?

Should he let them stay here?

No, no, it's too dangerous to stay here.

"Grand Master, do you have any good ideas?" His mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of any good methods at the moment. He could only look at Mr. Luo to see what good methods he had.

Mr. Luo said: "My suggestion is to wait until the emperor gives the order before making a decision. During this time, don't be impatient." After the Emperor finds out about this, he will definitely send troops to annihilate those people; he can't possibly turn a blind eye.

After being silent for a while, Liu Zhimo said that he would think about it, and after that, he would give him an answer.

Mr. Luo acknowledged.

Liu Zhimo rubbed his temples, then sat down at the table. With a heavy heart, he wrote a report and quickly sent it to the Emperor.

He didn't even go to the yamen, he went back to his room. Li Qingling rarely woke up early, and seeing him come back, he suspiciously asked him if he had missed something.

He walked over to the bed and sat down. He touched her head and said no.

Li Qingling stared at him for a long while, "Husband, you can't have people outside, right?"

Hearing her words, Liu Zhimo choked and flicked her forehead, "What did you say? "Idiot .." His heart was very small. If he could only contain her, how could there be someone else?

Li Qingling once again asked him, holding his handsome face and looking straight into his eyes, what on earth did he have in his mind?

She could feel his thoughts, but she didn't know what was bothering him.

But he refused to tell her that she couldn't help even if she wanted to.

Liu Zhimo looked at her quietly for a while and laughed bitterly, he could not hide this from the people around him.

He opened his mouth, but didn't know where to start.

Seeing this, she raised her eyebrows and snorted, "It's so hard to say. It can't be that there's someone outside, right? Or. Did you have a crush on another woman and want to take her home to be a baby? " The more she talked, the uglier his face became.

In the end, he covered her mouth with his hand and glared up at her, not allowing her to speak any further.

What nonsense were they spouting that made him angry?

Li Qingling took off his hand and continued to ask him. What was it that was making him so uncomfortable?

Liu Zhimo faintly sighed, and asked Li Qingling if he wanted to return to the Ox-Head Village to live for a period of time.

"Why?" She would not go back until he had given her a good reason.

"Ever since I was attacked in the Wutong Village, I was worried that Wang Lin's family would invite assassins to attack you again. That's why I wanted you to return to the Ox-Head Village to hide." He felt that this reason could convince Li Qingling.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingling did not believe his words at all.

She shook her head lightly, and immediately exposed his lie, saying that it was not because of these reasons that he allowed them to return to the Ox-Head Village.

What had happened to make him lie to her?

Li Qingling looked at Liu Zhimo anxiously.

Perceiving her uneasiness, Liu Zhimo's heart throbbed in pain. He reached out and pulled her into his embrace, shaking her gently to prevent her from thinking too much.

"If you want me to stop thinking random thoughts, then tell me honestly. What exactly is it that is making things difficult for you?"

The more he hid it from her, the more uneasy she became. All sorts of bad thoughts filled her head.

Liu Zhimo rested his chin on top of her head and looked at her with lowered eyes. He couldn't help but sigh, should he tell her about this?

He hesitated for a moment, unsure of his decision.

"Husband?" Li Qingling stared at him, "Can't you tell me?"

Liu Zhimo thought about it and decided not to tell Li Qingling the truth. He started to organize the things regarding He Zhao and Wang Lin's group.

"What?" Is that true? " Li Qingling exclaimed, he then covered his mouth, and stared at Liu Zhimo with his eyes wide open. She had thought of all sorts of bad things, but he did not expect He Zhao Wang Lin to be so bold, as if he was a commoner. "Husband, are you sure?"

Liu Zhimo nodded his head and confirmed. He sent people to investigate the situation yesterday, and it was completely true.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have let her hide in Ox-Head Village.

"We're leaving, what about you? Are you planning to stay here? "

Liu Zhimo caressed Li Qingling's hair lightly, saying that he was the county magistrate of the Ninghua County, and would definitely not abandon the commoners and escape.

It was his duty as a magistrate to advance and retreat with the people.

Li Qingling's expression darkened, he raised his head and looked at Liu Zhimo, and said resolutely, she is not leaving.

She couldn't just leave Liu Zhimo here and leave.

Hearing that, Liu Zhimo pushed Li Qingling away slightly, and looked at her with a serious expression, telling her to definitely leave.

Li Qingling shook his head and said no.

"Even if it's not for yourself, think about the child." He put his hand on her stomach, his expression softer. "Do you have the heart to let your child not see the world? "Hmm?"

Looking at Li Qingling's sad expression, he also felt very sad in his heart, "If you weren't pregnant, I would definitely make you stay here and help me.

He couldn't joke about her body. He couldn't bear the pain of losing her.

Li Qingling bit his lower lip forcefully as he struggled, not knowing whether to leave or stay.

"Maybe .. "He'll be fine..." These words were said without confidence.

Liu Zhimo extended a finger to free her lips, pinched her chin, and stopped her from biting his lips again.

"My wife, I also don't want you to leave my side. It's really a helpless action, really .."

Li Qingling looked at him twice, then opened his mouth to refute his words, saying that she would definitely be safe in Ox-Head Village? Maybe even more dangerous.

If He Zhao, Wang Lin, and the others asked the killers to chase them again, they wouldn't let them go so easily.

They might not even need to wait for the Ox-Head Village to finish them off midway.

She laid out all the reasons she had in mind in front of him, in order to reassure him.

After saying that, Liu Zhimo felt his heart sink into the bottomless abyss, making him want to sigh helplessly.

What she said made a lot of sense, and he agreed.

Sigh... He wanted to convince her, but she almost convinced him.

When did his self-control become so bad?

"I will have the guards escort you home." His attitude became unyielding as he spoke in an incontestable tone.

Li Qingling looked at him deeply, and asked him what should they do?
