"Can Xiaoan hurry up?" Rachel lifted the curtain of the car, feeling a little impatient.

Xiao An turned her head and gave her a smiling face, "Don't worry, we have already left for the third day, and we are sure to arrive today."

"drive!"

……

When passing the Yanzhipu street, Rachel asked Xiaoan to go around to have a look. Unexpectedly, she ran into Shen Zhaoxue who was there to greet the servants to clean up.

Before the carriage came to a complete stop, Rachel couldn't wait to get out of the carriage, but fortunately Xiao An stopped her, otherwise she would have to fall under the wheels and be crushed.

"Rachel, Xiaoan, why are you here?" Shen Zhaoxue rushed out after hearing the sound.

After the car was parked, Rachel jumped down briskly, and embraced Shen Zhaoxue with tears, "Miss, it's great to see you again."

"Silly girl, why are you back?" Shen Zhaoxue comforted her back over and over again.

"Madam, after we heard the news that you and the general are fine, we rushed back immediately." Xiao An said.

Shen Zhaoxue looked at him with a loving face, "You took good care of Rachel for me."

Speaking of this, Xiao An couldn't help but feel a little guilty, "Actually, there was an accident on the way. Unfortunately, Rachel fell from the carriage and injured her head, and she was temporarily blind for a while."

Hearing this, Shen Zhaoxue quickly let go of Rachel, and stared at her face carefully, "Your eyes..."

Rachel laughed, "I'm fine, Miss, I'm completely fine now, it doesn't affect anything at all."

"That's good," said Shen Zhaoxue and looked back at the store, "You must be tired from the journey, follow me back to the house first, the store won't be cleaned up in a while."

Back at the house, Shen Zhaoxue specially ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of good dishes for the two of them. No matter what, it's really great that Rachel is safe and sound. Xiao An did a great job this time and should be rewarded.

Maybe it was because he didn't eat well along the way, Xiao An, who was sitting on the table holding a big chicken leg, gnawed his mouth full of greasy food, which had nothing to do with Wen Ya.

"Xiao'an." Shen Zhaoxue called out suddenly.

"Huh?" Xiao An wiped her mouth, put down the drumstick and listened to her.

"Do you want to be the shopkeeper in the store?" Shen Zhaoxue asked with a smile in her eyes.

Xiao An was quite frightened, "Ma'am, this is..."

"Don't be afraid, I don't mean anything else. I just feel that I have been exercising for the past few years. You should take over. The general and I have other important things to do. I'm afraid I won't have time to go to the store every day. gone."

"Miss, do you want..." Rachel wanted to ask, but hesitated to speak.

Shen Zhaoxue gave her a reassuring look, "I'll let you know when the time comes, that's all, eat it quickly, it's all specially made for you, it won't taste good when it's cold."

One day later, Sima's rouge shop reopened. Originally, Shen Zhaoxue didn't have much hope for the first day's business, but for some reason, customers kept pouring in. In the past, she was isolated by everyone because of the rumor of Lone Evil Star. Dodging, and now because of the status of the eldest princess, she is admired by thousands of people and has a noble status.

Ordinary people living in the capital naturally want to come to the rouge shop for good fortune. If they buy some rouge and give it to their daughter-in-law at the rouge shop of the eldest princess, they will be very happy, so many old men come to buy it.

This burst of heat will gradually subside after dinner at night. It has been a long time since I have been so busy. After such a toss, Shen Zhaoxue's body is really not good. She has a sore back and no discomfort anywhere. However, she has observed that Xiaoan's business The ability is already very proficient, and even Rachel has done a very good job, and she is relieved to hand over the store to them in the future.

When preparing to return home, Shen Zhaoxue was very pleasantly surprised and surprised by a sudden person. The last time we saw each other again seemed like many years had passed.

"Xiuyan!"

Yes, it was Su Xiuyan. Her father had already allowed her to be free. Now that the national laws have been changed, even the emperor stood up to support Zhaoxue and Sima Yun's marriage. Her father would never dare to openly disobey the imperial order.

"Zhaoxue, long time no see." Su Xiuyan moved her lips, her whole body was negative and decadent.

"Xiuyan, come in quickly, it's cold outside." Shen Zhaoxue invited her into the shop, the innermost compartment.

Rachel touched Xiao An's arm, "Hey, your favorite Miss Su is here, why didn't you respond at all?"

Xiao An gave her a white look, "What do you want me to do?"

"It's boring." Rachel walked away alone, and then Xiao An sneaked another glance at Rachel.

"Xiuyan, are you okay?" Shen Zhaoxue brought her hot tea.

Su Xiuyan reached out to take the teacup, put it on the table without taking a sip, nodded and shook her head.

"What's the matter with you, your father... no, what's the matter with the Duke?" Shen Zhaoxue was very anxious.

At this moment, Su Xiuyan suddenly grabbed Shen Zhaoxue's hands, "I want to ask you to help me."

"Xiuyan, tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you."

"I want to go to the Western Regions, I want to go to Qiuci to find Aria, I can't forget her, no matter if she still loves me or not, I want to meet her once, even if only once." Speaking of this, Su Xiuyan's eyes were already red.

Seeing the sunken cheeks on the once beautiful face, Shen Zhaoxue felt very uncomfortable. She also had these feelings of Xiuyan, and she could understand it very well.

"How do you want me to help you?"

"You have been to Kucha, first of all I want a map of Kucha..."

Without saying a word, Shen Zhaoxue drew a picture for her, and at the same time explained to her some precautions on the road, if she is not careful, she will be in danger. "The most important thing is that you must find the small river on the border of the Kucha Kingdom and drink the water in the river, then you will be taken into the Kucha Kingdom."

"It's just..." Shen Zhaoxue paused in the middle of speaking.

"Just what?"

"I can't guarantee that you will be able to meet Aria with this method, but there is a half-percent chance. After all, only the king and princess of the Kucha Kingdom have the right to dispose of the captured Han people, so you will definitely meet one of them. .”

Su Xiuyan understood and nodded, "Thank you Zhaoxue."

"No need to thank Xiuyan, I understand the feeling of a person desperately wanting to see another person, that must go through hardships and hardships, and I believe that Princess Aria must also care about you."

After seeing off Aria, Shen Zhaoxue stood at the door for a long time, as if giving her most sincere blessings and prayers to someone who was about to embark on a journey.

Back at the mansion, Su Xiuyan immediately started to pack her luggage, carrying enough luggage, and was about to set off directly in the dark. At this time, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Su Xiuyan raised her vigilance and hid all her packed baggage before going to open the door in a calm manner.

Su Guogong stood at the door.

"father."

"Xiuyan." Su Guogong pursed his lips, lowered his head and escaped from his cuff with a thick stack of bank notes, "Take these as well, the journey is far away, I'm afraid you won't have enough, and you will be thousands of miles away by then. Dad can't help you."

Su Xiuyan only felt a sore nose and suppressed tears, "Thank you dad."

"Silly boy, it's dad who's sorry for you, and dad has figured it out, why don't you let go and let you pursue the happiness you want, who made you dad's most precious and precious daughter."

"Father..." Su Xiuyan threw herself into the Duke's arms, hugged her tightly, and cried like a child.

She only heard Su Guogong whispering in her ear, "Be careful...the outside world is no better than home..."
