"I obey your order," Gu Xiao said expressionlessly and left.

"Lord Governor, the Emperor is pushing you to the forefront. According to intelligence, Prince Xiao is very popular in Xiaoxiang now. If you go and interfere, it will backfire."

"Humph, what are you afraid of? I'm just an escort." He said coldly and shook his sleeves.

........

"Miss, take a break! Xuan Ling and I will be there. If things don't work out, there is still Master Fu." Bai Zhi persuaded Wen Jiu. She saw that her young lady had been busy for several days without stopping.

"It's okay, I'm fine, go ahead!" Wen Jiu didn't feel tired

"The imperial court should send someone down. Miss, please be patient."

"Well, give out porridge!"

"The prince is here. The prince is here!" Everyone thanked and shouted.

"We are exhausted here, but he still gets the good reputation. It's really unfair," Xuan Ling muttered.

"Okay, keep your voice down and do your job well! You can rest only after you finish it quickly." Bai Zhi said without stopping her hands.

Xiao Jue had time to come and see after finishing his work today. He didn't expect Wen Jiu to do this well. There were four porridge stalls. He stood beside Wen Jiu and wanted to help, but was ignored. He saw Wen Jiu looking at Fu Yichen with bright eyes, without any calculation. The two of them cooperated very well. He couldn't stand there any longer, so he turned around and went to the suburbs to see how the flood was handled..........

"I don't know how Guaiguai is doing? Can he eat and sleep well? There is war and chaos, and there are floods. I am afraid there will be diseases after the disaster. You should go to the emperor and ask him to let Guaiguai come back!" The old lady looked worried.

"The emperor will not let Jiu'er come back at this time. I have sent someone to go there. Don't worry." The old general patted his wife's shoulder.

"Who did you send? Can you trust them?" the old lady asked

"Uh... maybe that's a little unreliable!" The old general held his forehead and shook his head.

"What did grandpa say? How could I be unreliable?" Su Jinxiu came in with his bag on his back, ready to leave. He didn't expect to hear his grandfather say this about him.

"You?" The old lady's question hurt Su Jinxiu's heart.

"Grandma, I will definitely be able to help my sister when I get there, don't worry!" Su Jinxiu said goodbye to the two elders.

"Have you told your parents? This trip is long and steep, and there may be danger. Please protect yourself," the old lady asked behind him.

"I said, father agreed. Mother was a little worried, but she agreed too. Don't worry, I'll take a few more people with me. Grandpa and grandma, I'll leave first." Su Jinxiu said and left.

The two elders felt reluctant to let their grandson go as he walked away.

"Grandfather and grandmother, don't worry too much. Although Jin Xiu is usually careless, he should be able to take charge of things on his own. This kid has made real achievements in the military camp and on the battlefield." Su Jinyu came over in a wheelchair.

"Jin Yu, why are you here? Hey, the military camp is the military camp, but he didn't go there alone. Forget it, this is also an experience for him." The old lady was helpless and didn't want Jin Yu to comfort her, so she could only comfort herself.

"Okay, grandma, don't think about it. My sister is so smart that she will protect herself. What's more, the prince will also protect her. Doesn't she have Baizhi, the one you sent over, with her?" Su Jinyu said this, and the old lady's expression looked better. Yes, there was Baizhi, the maid who knew medical skills. Besides, Guaiguai was so smart that she would take care of herself and not let them worry.

Su Jinxiu and his group rode at full speed, and another group was also on their way. On the night approaching Xiaoxiang City, they gathered together at a dilapidated temple outside the city...

"Sir, please come in and take shelter from the rain. We'll have to inconvenience you for one night. We should be able to get there tomorrow if we speed up." Su Jinxiu's servant held the horse reins. Su Jinxiu dismounted swiftly and entered the ruined temple. He could tell at a glance that this place must have experienced a large-scale fight before. Could it be his sister and her friends again? He inquired a lot along the way. Some people always said that they went up the mountain to find fruit. There were many corpses exposed in the continuous rain. He guessed that his sister was being hunted all the way. She never mentioned it in her letters home, and even said that the scenery along the way was very beautiful. She must have been scared and extremely frightened. He should have thought about this damn Xiao Jue. How many people didn't want him to return to Xiaoxiang safely? How many people wanted to take his life directly and implicate his own sister.

He sat down and leaned against the pillar to rest. He glanced and saw the arrow nailed to the pillar. It was only half broken. Who was injured? Could it be his sister? No, he had to hurry as soon as the rain stopped.

"Second Prince, Governor, Lord Li, let's take shelter from the rain first!" Someone was talking outside. Su Jinxiu thought they were probably on their way, so he ignored them. When the other person came in, Su Jinxiu saw the Second Prince. He couldn't pretend not to know him.

"Meet the Second Prince"

"Su...Su Jinxiu?" The second prince looked at him in surprise.

"Oh, it's like this, my family is worried about my sister. My father and uncle wanted to ask for permission to go south to provide disaster relief, but they couldn't go, so I had to go to see how my sister was doing. She had just come back from the mountain and experienced hardships again. It's hard to imagine how frightened she, a little weak woman, must have been along the way. It would be more reassuring for me to go and see her." Su Jinxiu didn't mention the hunt along the way. He wasn't sure if there were any of the second prince's men among them. Even if there weren't, there must be some of the imperial concubine's men...

"Yes, Miss Wen is physically weak, and she must have suffered a lot on the way. We can travel together from now on. By the way, let me introduce you. This is Gu Xiao, the supervisor of the East Factory who is escorting us, and this is Li Yu, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War." The second prince introduced the two people beside him.

"Greetings to the Governor, and to Lord Li. I am Su Jinxiu, the son of the Dali Temple Minister." Su Jinxiu looked at the two of them. He rarely heard people mention the East Factory. This jade-faced man, with red lips and white teeth, eyes like an eagle, looked both good and evil. He looked at people with a contemptuous look, as if he didn't care about many things. Li Yu was a very positive person. Although his appearance was not as good as Gu Xiao's, he was also very handsome.

The two were also looking at him. Gu Xiao looked at the handsome and suave man in front of him holding the Xiaoyao fan, looking delicate like a rich kid. However, he believed that if he was born in the General's Mansion, even the servants there would know martial arts. Moreover, this boy, despite his young age, was said to have more experience in the battlefield than many generals in the court. However, the General's Mansion was always very low-key. As for why he didn't tell Emperor Yuan about this, it was because the General's Mansion had not done anything that was detrimental to the court, but had made great achievements in the war...
