Chapter 1513: Exploring the IslandEditor: Henyee Translations

However, the Gu family did not commit too big of a crime. Although Marquis Huaiyin was behind it, the Gu family itself had a certain amount of power.

After some negotiation, they were finally exiled to the Lingzhou Prefecture a thousand miles away.

Compared to the desolate city at the border, the Lingzhou Prefecture was much better.

However, they were criminals after all, and their lives would be much more difficult than in the capital.

Qin Wenzheng had also asked about their current location for Shao Qingyuan. It was said that those exiled to the Spirit State Prefecture usually worked on an island under their jurisdiction. That island was called Linxun Island.

The island was not big and was not far from land. They were exploring the island and mining rocks. The Gu family was most likely on Linxun Island.

When Gu Yundong heard this, she had an idea.

However, they would only know where Linxun Island was and what kind of situation it was when they arrived at the Lingzhou Prefecture.

Shao Qingyuan touched her head. "Alright, let’s not think too much. You’ve been busy all day. Go to sleep first."

"Okay." Gu Yundong turned sideways and found a comfortable position in his arms to close her eyes.

However, in the next moment, she suddenly raised her head.

"Ugh..." Shao Qingyuan’s chin was hit by him and he almost bit his tongue.

Gu Yundong nervously propped herself up. "How are you? I’m sorry. I got up in a hurry just now. Did I bite you? Open your mouth and let me see."

Shao Qingyuan waved his hand. "It’s fine." Seeing that she insisted on opening her mouth, he could only show her.

Seeing that there was indeed nothing wrong, Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief.

Shao Qingyuan hugged her again. "What happened just now? Why were you so shocked?"

"I-I just suddenly thought of something."

"What?"

"Do you remember what Tao Yan said back then? He saw the steward of Marquis Huaiyin’s mansion in the Lingzhou Prefecture. He also saw cloth made of the same material as this handkerchief on the steward’s body. That’s why he came over to tell us. That’s why we focused our attention on the Shao family. Tell me, why did the steward of the Marquis Huaiyin’s mansion appear in the Lingzhou Prefecture? Was it to find Miss Shao?"

Shao Qingyuan fell into deep thought. Indeed, although Marquis Huaiyin had properties, most of them were in the capital.

The Lingzhou Prefecture was thousands of miles away, and it didn’t seem to be related to the Marquis at all.

However, the steward of the marquis family had run there.

Perhaps he was really looking for Miss Shao.

Back then, the Old Marquis had announced to the public that Shao Yin had suddenly died of an illness. Now that the Old Marquis was gone, the others in the Marquis family might still have feelings for Shao Yin. It was reasonable for them to send someone to find her.

However, she did not know if the person looking for her was the Old Madam, the Marquis, or the Second Master...

She did not know if they really missed her or if they had other motives.

"Forget it. I don’t care. Let’s go to the Lingzhou Prefecture and find the Gu family later."

"Yes, go to sleep."

The two of them rested. Although Gu Yundong was tired, she was too excited and only fell asleep late at night.

Hence, the next day, she woke up late as she wished.

By the time she packed up and went to New Tea Pavilion, there were already many guests.

Most of the guests today were unfamiliar faces. After all, they could not come here every day.

But to Gu Yundong’s surprise, there were a few elderly madams in the shop.

Presumably, they were here for the plaque at the door?

Gu Yundong could not help but laugh. She instructed Nanny Xia to take good care of the customers and planned to bring Tong Shuitao to buy something.

She had to prepare to go to the Lingzhou Prefecture.
