Sui Shou raised his sword and was about to kill Zhou Feng, but Qin Xin suddenly thought of something and stopped him immediately.

"Don't!"

At the same time, Ge Weili arrived with a scroll.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty has sent a message via carrier pigeon!"

When he saw Zhou Feng sitting on the ground in a mess, his expression froze and he looked at him intently—

"Hey, have you caught this old thief?"

Lord Ge, who is usually serious, spoke in an inexplicably funny way at this moment.

He glanced at Sui Shou, was stunned for a moment, then lowered his voice and explained the contents of the letter to Qin Xin.

"My Lady, His Majesty has ordered us to keep this old thief and take him to Shuiyue City."

After hearing this, Zhou Feng's face turned pale. Just as he was about to speak, Qin Xin nodded and winked at Sui Shou.

So, Sui Shou stepped forward and knocked Zhou Feng unconscious with the hilt of his sword.

"That's what I meant."

When Gang Suishou wanted to execute Zhou Feng on the spot, this thought flashed through Qin Xin's mind.

The disaster in Shuiyue City was caused by Zhou Feng, who took the so-called "imperial edict" and borrowed the name of the empress dowager to push Gu Fei to the forefront of public opinion, then absconded with the money, lowering the credibility of the court.

Carry this culprit with you in case of emergency.

After all, it is hard to say what the current situation in Shuiyue City is until they get there and see it with their own eyes.

Looking down at Zhou Feng, Qin Xin threw the dagger away in disgust and wiped his hands on his body.

"Just keep an eye on him. As long as he's not dead and can talk, that's all."

She finds it disgusting to even look at this kind of corrupt official who doesn't care about the lives of the people.

"Gu... Your Majesty, do you have anything else to say?"

Since he delivered the message, it must have been a coincidence that he met Zhou Feng, but didn't catch him.

Fortunately, the team was divided into two teams, attacking from the front and back, and preventing the bastard from escaping.

Ge Weili shook his head.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and asked Qin Xin.

"My Lady, since you are here, would you like to send a message to His Majesty?"

say what?

She was fine, sleeping soundly in the palace, but was knocked unconscious and sent here to suffer with him?

She explained it to him, but Ge Weili didn't believe her, let alone pass on the message...

I don’t know how it will be misinterpreted.

Qin Xin hurriedly shook his head.

Forget it, let’s talk about it after we meet, so that Gu Fei won’t have to make up all kinds of nonsense on his own in this world where communication is difficult.

Ge Weili's eyes showed admiration.

Hand over.

"I understand."

"..."

"In this way, when you come before His Majesty, he will be pleasantly surprised. Your Majesty, rest assured, I will escort you well along the way and allow you to meet His Majesty as soon as possible."

"...Ah, okay."

Qin Xin held his forehead and sighed.

He never understood.

Zhou Feng was taken away by Ge Weili and placed under strict surveillance.

Only then did Qin Xin have time to ask Sui Shou about the situation in the palace.

"After I left, will the Queen Mother be worried? Is Fengqi Palace okay? Huan'er must have thought that I was kidnapped by criminals and was worried that my future and hers would be in jeopardy... Shuang'er didn't cry, did she? Did Concubine Yu and Concubine De notice?"

She asked so many questions in one breath, but Sui Kari scratched the back of his head, not knowing how to respond.

How should I put it, Your Majesty doesn’t have to worry about any of it.

He has always been honest, and this time is no exception.

"Your Highness, the Queen Mother has kept this a secret for you. If you are asked about it in the future, it means that you accompanied His Majesty in disaster relief under the Imperial Order."

"Everything is fine in Fengqi Palace. Miss Huan'er knows that you are devoted to His Majesty... and she has no excuses. Miss Shuang'er is also fine. As for the two ladies, the Queen Mother is in charge, so they can't make a fuss."

Qin Xin choked, wanted to say something, and choked again.

So, it doesn't matter whether she is there or not in the palace?

wrong--

"Why do you assume that I came out on my own?"

She's such a living person, and the queen at that, and she just disappeared like that. Don't they have any suspicion or worry about her?

And cooperated with the "criminals" to cover up the truth of her disappearance?

Sui Shou opened his eyes and asked back in surprise -

"You, aren't you?"

As he said this, he glanced at Qin Xin, whose hands and feet were all intact and unharmed.

Everything that Sui Shou was thinking was in his eyes.

Qin Xin smacked his lips and said, well, there's no need to say anything, no one will believe it.

She laughed twice.

"I hope everyone is alright. Since you are here, just follow me."

Sister Qin grinned, but couldn't continue laughing, so she turned around and forced a bitter smile.

Who did she offend? Who knocked her out? And how could anyone with a brain in the palace mistakenly believe that she volunteered to leave the palace to accompany the emperor...

Is it because she acted so well that everyone thought she loved Gu Fei till death?

But the man knocked her unconscious, but only sent her to Shuiyue City, and even thoughtfully prepared a bag for her, without hurting her——

It is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe.

Then keep it for now and find it out when you get back.

The team continued to move forward.

Finally there was a sunny day.

Qin Xin and his group were in great shape both physically and mentally, and they actually managed to catch up with the group ahead of them.

"My lady, isn't that His Majesty's tent?"

Sui Shou had sharp eyes. Sitting on his horse and looking ahead, he was the first to see the flag of Gu Fei and his party who were camping in front of him. He turned around and happily reported to Qin Xin.

When Ge Weili, whose mouth was dry from traveling, heard this, his pair of eyes, which were not much bigger than mung beans, opened a little brightly.

"Really! Mother...eh? Where is the mother?"

He withdrew his gaze and looked in the direction of Qin Xin, but he only saw her horse; the person disappeared out of thin air.

Ge Weili couldn't help but touch his forehead in confusion and nervously looked for someone in the team.

But he saw his men pointing at the crowd while holding back laughter.

Ge Weili pushed the two people aside and stretched his neck to take a look——

The corners of his eyes began to twitch uncontrollably.

I don't know where the empress got the handkerchief, water, comb and bronze mirror from, but she squatted among the crowd and tidied her appearance.

The soldiers didn't dare to look directly at her, and turned around tacitly to cover her.

After more than ten days of getting along, Qin Xin had become one with everyone, and the soldiers respected and loved her.

Who doesn’t like a queen who is beautiful, brave, humorous, cheerful and approachable?

In her eyes, everyone seems to be the same, regardless of status.

Ge Weili is also an experienced person. He used to think that this person did not complain about the hardships of sleeping in the open air during the journey, and he thought he really did not care.

The temporary dressing-up at this moment made him suddenly realize.

She was still young, a newlywed girl.

It's time to love beauty.

Qin Xin felt the attention and coughed immediately.

While applying rouge, she saves her dignity——

"I just don't want to offend the Holy Lord, don't think too much."

Even when she was eighty years old, she was still a pretty old lady who could not afford to lose face in front of Gu Fei!

After quickly tidying herself up, Qin Xin admired herself in the mirror for a while before straightening out her wrinkled clothes.

Turn around and move forward.

"Mother--"

But Ge Weili stood in front of Qin Xin with a strange expression, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Qin Xin raised his eyebrows, tilted his head slightly and looked forward.

The smile on his face froze.

"Don't be sad, madam. It's definitely—"

Qin Xin walked forward silently, mounted the horse, and pulled the reins. Ge Weili thought she was going to turn around and immediately stopped in front of the horse.

He tried awkwardly to defend Gu Fei.

Why the excuse?

But in front of him, in the main tent, a dishevelled woman staggered out with tears in her eyes. Behind her was the handsome Gu Fei.

This picture is so vivid and colorful that it is hard not to be distorted.

Gu Fei glanced forward as if realizing something, then blinked——

I suspect I saw it wrong.

Look again, yes, it is...

Qin Xin.

When their eyes met, Gu Fei smiled, but the next moment, he looked at the disheveled woman in front of him as if feeling inexplicably guilty, and then looked at Qin Xin.

Qin Xin curled the corners of his lips and smiled playfully.

"drive!"

He kicked the horse's belly and ran towards Gu Fei.

Ge Weili stamped his feet, as if he was disappointed with his friend.

"Oh, how unfortunate!
