Anyway, your master is more important than me, your future husband.

If Lan Yi knew what Ouyang Xuan was thinking, she would probably frown and give Ouyang Xuan the cold shoulder.

You were the one who brought the news back in such a hurry. Don't you worry about His Highness and the Crown Princess?

Mu Yunyu was just about to go out when an uninvited guest came to the palace - the Minister of Justice Pei Xuan.

The Ministry of Justice is Mu Yunchen's man. Does your father not trust him and suspect that he will plot against the prince?

Or maybe he was intentionally favoring Mu Yunchen, so that Pei Xuan could intervene if it was true?

So the plan was to let Pei Xuan go with him.

As expected, Pei Xuan bowed to Mu Yunyu solemnly and said, "Prince Heqin."

"In compliance with the Emperor's order, I will accompany the Prince to the palace."

Pei Xuan did not say what exactly happened, after all, both of them knew it.

Mu Yunyu suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Since this matter was handed over to him, why did they send someone to supervise him?

Mu Yunyu snorted in his heart. Never mind. Isn't his father always like this? He should have gotten used to it a long time ago.

"Then please prepare quickly, Master Pei. I will set out immediately."

Pei Xuan's eyebrows trembled, and he didn't say much, just replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Although he was puzzled as to why the Prince was so anxious, these were not things he, a subject, could question.

He just needs to obey the Emperor's edict and make sure Prince He doesn't plot against the Crown Prince along the way.

This is also the reason why the emperor chose Pei Xuan to go with Mu Yunyu. Looking at the court, only Pei Xuan is the most impartial and just.

If the prince really committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and secretly colluded with Li Ge with bad intentions, then Pei Xuan would definitely report everything honestly.

Even though the Ministry of Justice now belongs to the Crown Prince.

On the other hand, with Pei Xuan around, there was no need to worry about Mu Yunyu wrongly accusing the prince.

Mu Yunyu was a little surprised that Pei Xuan agreed so decisively.

It seems that he guessed wrong? Didn’t the emperor send Pei Xuan to delay time?

If he had arrived a step later, the prince might have already returned from Lige.

But Pei Xuan's resolute tone did not indicate any intention of delay.

"Then Sir Pei, please go back and prepare quickly. You and the king will meet at the city gate in half an hour."

Mu Yunyu said this and was about to turn around and sit for a while to wait for Pei Xuan.

After all, he didn't believe that Mu Yunchen could rush back from Lige in half an hour.

That's a journey of half a month. It would be funny unless he was not a human and could fly.

It would take at least five days to get from the capital to the palace. If what was said in the letter was true, Mu Yunchen was indeed still in Li Ge.

Then when he arrives at the palace, Mu Yunchen will definitely not have returned yet. Let's see how they can argue then.

It just so happened that Pei Xuan was with him, so that his father wouldn't accuse him of wrongly accusing the prince.

Thinking of this, Mu Yunyu couldn't help feeling a little proud. It seemed like God was helping him, and he must seize this opportunity.

Pei Xuan just stood there motionless: "Your Majesty, I have packed everything and can leave now."

In fact, Pei Xuan went home first after leaving the palace. After all, although the emperor's oral order did not say it explicitly, the general meaning was that he should always follow Prince He.

So, he started following the prince closely from the moment he left the palace.

Mu Yunyu opened his eyes slightly and his heart skipped a beat. Why did he feel that Pei Xuan was more anxious than him?

Could it be that things have changed?

After thinking about it, Mu Yunyu ruled out this idea. What Mu Yunchen did in Li Ge was seen by that person with his own eyes, so how could it be false?

I was just being too suspicious.

Then, the two of them no longer hesitated, went out, mounted their horses and headed towards the city gate.

On the other hand, Bi Mingtang's message had already reached various secret agents, all the way to Li Ge.

Along the way, no matter which secret post Mu Yunchen went to, he could receive the message and there would be no interruption in the communication.

After arranging these things, Lan Yi rushed to the palace without stopping, hoping that the prince would arrive slower.

I also hope that the Crown Princess can make preparations in advance, as she will probably have to deal well with Prince Heqin this time.

Mu Yunchen and his group had already walked a long way on their way back from Lige, and estimated that it would take another seven or eight days to get back to the palace.

Thinking about Mu Peiyun's due date, Mu Yunchen shortened the half-month journey to ten days. He had changed two horses when he was only halfway there.

Finally, several people received the message from Bimingtang in Jingzhou.

The whereabouts have been revealed, master, please return quickly.

Mu Yunchen didn't have time to think about who leaked his whereabouts and where it was leaked.

I originally wanted to stay in Jingzhou for one night and set off the next day.

But after seeing the letter, several people immediately jumped on their horses and did not dare to stop.

Seeing Mu Yunchen's anxiety, Lu Li couldn't help but say: "Sir, we have just arrived in Jingzhou. No matter how fast we hurry, it is impossible to reach the palace within five days. We still have to think of a way."

"Maybe I need your help."

After saying this, Mu Yunchen looked straight ahead, tightened the reins, whipped the horse's butt hard, and galloped away.

Lu Li was immediately confused. How could she help?

If she is willing to help, can she fly back directly in two or three days?

Although they didn't understand why, they quickened their pace and followed.

-

"This is the situation. Princess, you need to make plans early and think of a solution!"

After Lan Yi finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Mu Peiyun worriedly. The two maids behind her were also very anxious.

Mu Peiyun pondered for a while before asking, "When will the Prince arrive at the palace?"

Lan Yi thought for a moment and replied, "When I came here, I saw that the horses were already ready at the gate of Prince He's mansion. I think they are on their way now. I estimate that they will arrive in two or three days."

When Lan Yi thought of this, he became even more worried. How could his master possibly come back in two or three days?

Mu Peiyun was a little surprised. Lan Yi was getting anxious when she saw the Crown Princess staring at her with a surprised expression.

For a moment, Lan Yi felt a little uncomfortable and asked awkwardly, "Crown Princess, what are you looking at? But there is something on my face?"

Mu Peiyun shook her head: "You said you rushed to the palace as soon as you got the news, but Prince He should not be much slower than you. But now you are already in front of me, why do you say that it will take two or three days for Prince He to come?"

Mu Peiyun was puzzled by Lan Yi's speed. How could she rush here from Zhongdu City in just one day?

Lan Yi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the Crown Princess wanted to ask something.

"The Crown Princess is very clever. I am not very talented. I learned some skills from my mother when I was young. My running speed is a little faster than a horse."

Mu Peiyun quickly asked, "Does your method have any outside stories?"

Mu Peiyun thought, if His Highness also knew such a good thing, he might have come back by now.

It’s just that martial arts families have always had their own unique skills, which are not passed on to others except in special circumstances.

That's why Mu Peiyun asked this question.
