Chapter 40 Goodbye ten miles away
In the Shili Pavilion, Lin Zhong was waiting for everyone in the Yue family.

That day, everyone in the Yue family was taken away. As the housekeeper, he and some servants who had been released by Yue Fuli in advance were also driven away by the imperial army.

So much so that he couldn't arrange for the burial of his mistress in time, and felt extremely guilty.Unexpectedly, just two days ago, he received an anonymous letter telling him that Su Yuanniang had been buried and gave him the address.

After learning that everyone in the Yue family was being exiled today, he came to Shili Pavilion outside the city early. First, he sent Cheng Yi to everyone in the Yue family, and second, he told everyone in the Yue family that Su Yuanniang had been laid to rest.

Seeing the official escort escorting everyone from the Yue family, Butler Lin took the lead to greet them, and then quietly stuffed some money into the leading official Hu Wei.

"Go, don't take too long, we still have to hurry." Hu Wei weighed the broken silver in his hand and said to Butler Lin with a smile, "Remember, you can't leave our sight."

"My lord, you know the rules."

"Yes!" Hu Wei nodded, and then waved his hand to ask everyone to stop and rest.

Yue Fuli also saw Butler Lin, so she left the team and walked towards him.

"The little one has met the eldest lady."

"Uncle Lin, have you been waiting for a long time?" Yue Fuli looked at Lin Zhong with a smile. Seeing that he looked good, she felt a little at ease knowing that those people did not make things difficult for him.

"It's okay." Lin Zhong smiled, and then said to Yue Fuli, "Miss, time is limited, I will keep the story short."

"please say."

"Miss, I have decided to follow you to Qianzhou, so I can take care of you on the way."

"Uncle Lin, you?" Yue Fuli wanted to say that you don't have to be like this, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lin Zhong and said, "Miss, I have already decided. You don't need to persuade me." It’s no use either.”

"Okay, then I won't say much. However, Uncle Lin can go to Qianzhou in advance and doesn't have to come with us."

"But?" Lin Zhong was still a little worried, fearing that Yue Fuli and the others would have a hard time if he left.If he follows secretly, he can still do something or two, and even take care of everyone, at least he will not make everyone hungry.

He had heard that the exiled people were not only stipulated how far they had to walk every day, but they also had insufficient food and clothing, so that many people lost their lives on the road and not many actually reached their destination.

"Uncle Lin, I know what you are worried about. But don't worry, I will definitely take everyone to Qianzhou safely."

"Okay, since the eldest lady said so, the younger one will rush to Qianzhou first."

"Yeah!" Yue Fuli nodded, thinking of her mother who had no time to bury her, and asked directly, "By the way, my mother's funeral?"

"Miss, even if you don't ask, I still want to tell you. This is..."

Lin Zhong told Yue Fuli what happened next, and took out the anonymous letter.After Yue Fuli read the letter, she felt a little relieved and asked Lin Zhong, "Uncle Lin, have you found out who the other party is?"

Lin Zhong shook his head.After he received the letter, he went to check it, but found nothing.The person behind it was very careful, probably because he didn't want them to know his identity.

Yue Fuli didn't hesitate. She wrote down the place where her mother was buried and planned to pay homage to it in the evening.

Afterwards, Yue Fuli talked to Lin Zhong for a while and explained some things before saying goodbye.

Hu Wei saw that Lin Zhong had left and Yue Fuli had returned to the team, so he ordered to set off again.
