Shangguan Zimeng said unhappily: "Although I caught it for a reason, it was already red just now."

"how do you know?"

"I." She couldn't say the words, so she had to make an excuse and said, "I'm sleepy, go to bed quickly."

"Don't sleep, did you just see it secretly?"

Yan Kaiyu didn't want to let her go easily, so he pestered her, hugged her, and intended to get to the bottom of it.

She couldn't stand it anymore, so she showed her little black hand and threatened, "Do you want to try it again?"

He immediately shook his head, kept silent, and went to sleep obediently. It seemed that he had suffered a psychological trauma.

The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms as usual until dawn.

In the morning, Wu Du saw the prince coming out of the room. He went up to him and asked, "Prince, Cen Yi is still injured, but she doesn't want to go to the capital. She wants to go to Zigui City with us."

Shangguan Zimeng walked out of the house with her hair tied up, looked at the siblings and said, "Then let her go with us. This is a matter of revenge, it would be best if she could kill the enemy with her own hands, that would be satisfying."

Cen Yi looked at her gratefully.

"As you say." Yan Kaiyu also obeyed her words: "Give the order to set off at three quarters past noon."

Wudu and the others dispersed, took their luggage down the mountain, and prepared to set off on time.

Seeing that Shangguan Zimeng was not in good spirits, Yan Kaiyu probably didn't sleep well, so she asked with concern: "Didn't you get enough rest last night? Otherwise, let them go first, you sleep for a while, and then we can go together."

"No, I don't want to be the one who holds us back." She refused outright and muttered quietly, "You looked so hungry last night. I'd be surprised if I could get a good rest."

Yan Kaiyu recalled last night's scene with a smile. Apart from the warmth at the beginning, he also felt a pain in his balls. As he thought about it, he couldn't laugh anymore. He hoped that there would be no such punishment next time.

When the time came, everyone rode at full speed, intending to reach Zigui City before the next night.

That night, the couple snuggled up to each other, looking at the moon in the sky, with the evening breeze blowing gently, feeling refreshing and comfortable.

Shangguan Zimeng was very curious about this City Lord Ye, and asked, "Husband, what kind of person is this City Lord Ye? He sounds very powerful."

Yan Kaiyu wrapped the thick cloak tightly around the two people and began to narrate: "You are right, he is indeed very powerful. He was originally from Wuyue Kingdom, and was ordered to guard Zigui City. As a result, he was framed by a traitor, and his second son died because of that false accusation. It happened that the coalition forces of the three countries attacked Wuyue at that time, and he was furious and led his army to surrender to this king."

"Later, when Zi Ling fought against Ze Huang Zi Gui, he led his army to defend the city. With a small force, he repelled the attacks of Bai Luocheng (Prince of Ze Huang) several times and safeguarded the security of the border. The court named him Marquis Zi Gui and General Ding Bei, and he was a man with real military power."

"So amazing." Shangguan Zimeng was impressed by his ability and realized a problem: "Husband, I noticed that there are so many people with military power here. Aren't there any hidden dangers?"

Yan Kaiyu knew there were hidden dangers, and said helplessly, "There will definitely be, but we have to do things step by step, and we can't rush things. They have all shed blood and been injured for the country, and have made contributions. If we rashly take away their military power, I'm afraid they will be dissatisfied and plant the seeds of disaster. Moreover, many people are watching them at ordinary times, so they can only be cautious, for fear of making any mistakes and being caught by others."

Shangguan Zimeng thought of He Pingnan who was forced to lead troops to the northern border, and suddenly realized: "Indeed, look at that Southern Marquis, he is so old and usually so cautious. But he ended up with a good daughter. He Xinyue is really a good father who is good at cheating."

"Some things are just like this, and you can't control them." Yan Kaiyu hugged her tighter, leaned over to her ear and said intimately: "It's late, go to bed early, I will watch over you."

Shangguan Zimeng hadn't slept well last night, and after hearing what he said, she really felt a little sleepy. She groaned softly, hid in his arms, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Yan Kaiyu looked at her with loving eyes: I have helped you find your relatives. Although you are not her, it is you that I love, physically, mentally, and spiritually.

At this time, outside Zigui City, among the mountains, Ma Yi and Gao Xin did not know what had happened in Wangyue Mountain, let alone that Yan Kaiyu and others were rushing here.

They were busy discussing how to take action in the next two days to seize the last volume of the Reversal Method from Ye Shenming, and it would be best if they could also take the Dingxi Pill. Then, they would go to the capital, wait for an opportunity, and capture Shangguan Zimeng alive.

In the city, an old man with gray hair but very strong stood on the balcony like a pine tree.

Ye Kai came over and reported: "Grandpa, we have found out where Ma Yi is hiding, and we can send people to encircle and annihilate him at any time."

"Grandson, don't be too impatient. We can't beat him. Let's wait until the prince arrives before making a decision." Ye Shenming's voice was very vicissitudes, revealing a sense of strength: "Go and rest, the prince and his men should be here tomorrow."

Ye Kai wanted to leave but stopped. He saw his grandfather's worries and asked with concern: "Grandson knows that grandpa is thinking about the letter that the prince sent you. The portrait of our ancestral willow leaf birthmark in it. If it is true as the prince said, grandson and Jiuer will have a sister."
