But after returning and getting on the horse, Ouyang Xuan suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.
If Lan Yi goes back, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and her would be... Hey, hey, that's not right!!
Thinking of this, Ouyang Xuan suddenly panicked and wanted to jump off the horse and go back to look for Mu Yunchen.
But after all, he is a scholar, not a military general, and his horse riding skills are still lacking.
In a panic, he almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, Bi Qi stopped him in time, otherwise Ouyang Xuan would have fallen head over heels.
Ouyang Xuan realized it belatedly and broke out in a cold sweat. He thanked Bi Qi awkwardly.
"Thank you, Guard Bi."
Bi Qi looked at Ouyang Xuan, who seemed to be weak and unable to take care of himself, and joked: "Mr. Ouyang, where are you in such a hurry to go? Didn't you just come back from His Highness?"
"Nothing... nothing." Ouyang Xuan stopped his feet, thinking, "Never mind, let's talk about it when we get to the capital."
Bi Qi didn't care. He whipped the horse's butt and helped Ouyang Xuan at the same time. The two horses then ran forward quickly.
Ouyang Xuan was so scared that he almost lost his soul.
The convoy left the city and was halfway there. Mu Peiyun wanted to lift the curtain of the carriage to get some fresh air, but she found that the road was a little different from the previous day.
The little head was full of doubts, and he couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, this doesn't look like the way we came before!"
Mu Yunchen was originally looking down at the memorial he had prepared. Upon hearing this, he put down what he was holding and approached Mu Peiyun gently.
He held her in his arms, gently smoothed the hair on her forehead, his eyes full of doting smiles.
"Qingning was very carsick when he came here, but he still remembered the way. He's really smart."
After saying that, he scratched the tip of her nose.
Mu Peiyun leaned into Mu Yunchen's arms and drew circles on his chest with her hand.
"We just left the city not long ago. I still remember the road to Fanyang City."
Mu Yunchen smiled softly and explained: "The original road is not easy to travel. Qingning is pregnant. Let's take a wider and flatter road and take the water route from Jiangnan."
In fact, it was because Lu Li conveyed Wenren Yingshan's words that Mu Yunchen guessed that Yu Yi must have ambushed the killer on his way back.
So they temporarily changed the plan and divided themselves into several teams, sending them back to the capital from different land routes.
However, going around Jiangnan is the longest way back to the capital, which Yu Yi would never have thought of, not to mention that they also changed to a water route.
As expected, when Li Yu's team had just walked halfway, a group of men in black suddenly stood up around them, and immediately, there was another bloody storm.
Yu Yi thrust his sword into the carriage and overturned the roof.
“Empty!!!”
They immediately realized that they had fallen into a trap. When they looked up, they saw that the other party had obviously been waiting for them to appear and had already set a trap.
Realizing that the situation was not good, Yu Yi shouted - "Retreat!"
Then a few men in black fled. Li Yu did not chase them. Looking at the corpses lying on the ground, he could not help but shook his head.
"Your Highness was right. There is indeed an ambush in the Purple Bamboo Forest."
Then he squatted down and searched the black-clothed man. Finally, he frowned helplessly and sighed: "Don't look for it, they are all dead men!"
There is nothing useful on him. The so-called death warriors have no other purpose except killing people.
"His Highness has ordered that their heads be chopped off, packed in boxes and sent to Prince Heqin's palace as quickly as possible."
For a moment, although the soldiers beside him wanted to step forward, they still looked at each other in confusion.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too shady!
The same situation occurred on several other roads.
The convoy led by Bi Shiqi also encountered an ambush...
At this time, Mu Yunchen and Mu Peiyun had already arrived in Jiangnan and boarded the merchant fleet.
Here, Mu Peiyun finally met Lin Xi who had disappeared for a long time.
Lin Xi ran into the cabin excitedly and almost pounced on Mu Peiyun who was sitting on the couch: "Yun'er!!! I miss you so much!"
Before he could pounce over, he saw Mu Yunchen sitting next to him.
Lin Xi immediately behaved himself.
He bowed and saluted, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."
Mu Peiyun widened her eyes in surprise, but she knew that Sister Xi had come to Jiangnan.
But I didn't expect to meet her here.
"Sister Xi?"
Seeing the atmosphere of long-awaited reunion between the two, Mu Yunchen tactfully moved space for them and looked towards Mu Peiyun with a smile on his lips.
"I'll go outside and guard it."
After saying that, he walked straight towards the cabin door.
Lin Xi's mouth almost shaped like a circle. How horrified he was that the Crown Prince was guarding the door for them...!!
But seeing Yun'er not surprised at all, as if this happens all the time, this...
"Sister Xi, what are you looking at? Come over and sit down." Mu Peiyun looked at Lin Xi who was in a daze, patted the seat next to him and called her over.
Lin Xi finally came to his senses, feeling quite unbelievable, and looked back at the door.
I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince standing tall at the door with his back to the house, looking like he was taking a break.
"Yun'er, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dotes on you so much?"
Lin Xi was really surprised. In her impression, all the royal family members, and not just the royal family members, had three wives and four concubines, and their harems had three thousand beauties.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne, the future emperor, but I heard that apart from Yun'er, there is no one else in the Crown Prince's Mansion, not even a maid in the greenhouse.
Lin Xi was a little skeptical at first, but now it seems to be true?
Mu Peiyun pursed her lips and smiled, then asked, "Sister Xi, how can you tell that His Highness dotes on me?"
Lin Xi was choked and stunned. He looked at Mu Peiyun in disbelief and pointed outside...
I can't even straighten my tongue.
"This... just this. Even the prince has to guard the gate for you. Isn't that enough to spoil you?"
Mu Peiyun raised her eyelids and glanced at the door, a smile appearing on her lips.
"Your Highness, there is much inappropriateness here between you and me, private conversations between daughters."
Lin Xi was completely deflated. This was not being favored at all; it was like falling into a honey jar without realizing it. It was so sweet.
At the cabin door, Su Ziyuan bowed to Mu Yunchen and said, "Your Highness."
Mu Yunchen hummed lightly, and there was silence between the two for a moment.
After a while, Mu Yunchen finally spoke: "General Su is newly married, why doesn't he stay in Jiangnan for a few more days? I will go to talk to my father."
Su Ziyuan nodded and thanked Mu Yunchen for his kindness.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I have been in Jiangnan for some time. According to etiquette, I should return to the capital to meet with Prime Minister Lin."
Mu Yunchen naturally knew what Su Ziyuan meant.
He had heard some of it before he went to Fan Yang.
Su Ziyuan should indeed go to the residence of Prime Minister Lin. After all, he had kidnapped someone's daughter out of the blue, so he had to pay him a proper visit.
"This time it was all thanks to General Su who safely delivered the relief money to Fanyang. I will report the truth to the emperor and ask him to reward you."
"Your Highness, there is no need for reward. This is my duty."
There was no expression on Su Ziyuan's face, his tone was flat, his emotions were not revealed, and he was in a very controlled state.
Mu Yunchen curled his lips and sighed in his heart that only people like this could survive in the officialdom.
"It is General Su's duty, but rewards are necessary. I will ask my father for it on your behalf.
What's more... after marrying the daughter of Lin Fucheng, I'm afraid General Su will have to explain himself to Lin Fucheng."
Su Ziyuan's father is the prefect of Jiangnan, but Lin Xi is the daughter of Prime Minister Lin, and their status is very different.
Mu Yunchen was also considering Su Ziyuan.
