Since he sent someone to verify, there is no need for Xiao Mobai to stay here with Gu Nian.

On the way, Gu Nian put her arms around Xiao Mobai's neck and asked softly: "Brother Mo Bai, if what he said is true, can he directly destroy the Eighth Prince?"

Although Gu Nian had never led an army in a war, she had often nestled in Xiao Mobai's arms and read military books with him over the years.

So naturally we know how important it is to destroy the enemy's base camp.

"Well, if that is really the emperor's base camp, destroying it will directly damage the emperor's bones."

Xiao Mobai did not doubt that the governor would tell lies to him at this time. What he doubted was that the emperor's uncle would really be careless enough to expose the location of the base camp.

"Well, I hope what the governor said is true."

After Gu Nian finished speaking, she leaned on Xiao Mobai's chest, enjoying the stability Xiao Mobai brought to her.

"Nian'er, you have been working hard with me to deal with all kinds of trivial matters during this time, and I don't even have time to go shopping with you. After this matter is over, how about we go out for a walk?"

After carrying Gu Nian back to the main hall and putting Gu Nian on the chair, Xiao Mobai apologized to Gu Nian.

"Okay. Brother Mo Bai has been busy recently, but he is busy with national affairs. We will go shopping when we have time."

Gu Nian suddenly became interested when she heard that she was going out for shopping. She could finally eat local specialties.

Canglong's butler saw Gu Nian and Xiao Mobai coming over, served tea to them, and thoughtfully prepared snacks for Gu Nian.

Seeing the exquisite snacks, Gu Nian instantly felt an appetite.

"Wow, this snack looks really good. It seems like it's not available in the capital."

Seeing Gu Nian's happy look, the housekeeper's mood was infected by Gu Nian and made him happy.

He replied with a smile: "Go back to Mistress, these snacks are local specialties, specially prepared by the chef for Mistress."

Gu Nian replied with the same smile: "Okay, thank you, uncle butler."

Seeing that his subordinates were very interested in Gu Nian, Xiao Mobai was also very happy.

The two chatted and laughed in the main hall for half a day, and Ye Zhao came back with a message.

"Master, it has been confirmed that there are indeed soldiers and horses stationed at the location provided by the governor, but there are only a small number of soldiers and horses, not hundreds of thousands as he said."

The news that Ye Zhao brought back was expected by Xiao Mobai. If the Eighth Prince easily let his subordinates know the location of his base camp, he would not have been entangled with him for so long.

"Okay, I understand. Since the governor did not meet his expectations, just do whatever you have to do. I and the mistress will not go."

"Yes".

Ye Zhao got the order and retreated. Xiao Mobai made it clear that they should handle the governor's affairs by themselves and the original punishment should be followed.

After Ye Zhao left, Xiao Mobai turned his head and looked at Gu Nian.

"Nian'er, you've rested for so long, are you done with it? Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Yesterday, Xiao Mobai heard from the housekeeper that there would be a lantern festival tonight, so he took Gu Nian to rest for half a day and planned to take Gu Nian to the lantern festival in the evening.

"Okay, I've rested, shall we go out now?"

When he heard that he could go out soon, Gu Nian stood up from the chair.

Xiao Mobai felt that Gu Nian's hurried look was really sweet and cute, so he couldn't help but walk up to Gu Nian, bend down, and press a kiss on Gu Nian's cheek.

Gu Nian looked up at Xiao Mobai in confusion and asked, "Brother Mo Bai, why did you kiss someone suddenly?"

"It's nothing, I just think Nian'er is cute and can't help but want to kiss her."

"Hate."

Gu Nian glanced at Xiao Mobai shyly, and quickly walked out of the room without waiting for him.

"Nian'er, wait for me." Xiao Mobai followed Gu Nian step by step, following in Gu Nian's footsteps.

Ye Zhao followed Xiao Mobai's order to supervise the governor's punishment, while the other three remained hidden in the air to protect Gu Nian's safety at all times.

Gu Nian walked out of the house like a bird that had finally been released, walking very fast.

But with Xiao Mobai's speed, it's not difficult to keep up with Gu Nian.

Not long after Gu Nian left, he stopped in front of a stall selling masks.

The mask vendor saw Gu Nian stopping in front of his stall and greeted Gu Nian warmly.

"Miss, my masks are all beautiful. Do you want one?"

Xiao Mobai walked up behind Gu Nian and put one hand around Gu Nian's waist.

"Which one does Nian'er like?"

The boss changed his words with a wink, "I didn't expect that my wife would get married at such a young age. You and your husband are really a perfect match."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mobai generously handed the boss a piece of silver.

The boss took the money and smiled even happier.

Gu Nian saw a vivid little fox on the stall. The first time he saw it, Gu Nian fell in love with it.

Xiao Mobai naturally noticed Gu Nian's gaze, picked up the little fox mask and put it on Gu Nian gently.

"it's beautiful."

Xiao Mobai looked at Gu Nian, who looked even cuter with the mask on, and praised him sincerely.

Afterwards, Xiao Mobai himself picked another fox that matched Gu Nian and put it on, holding Gu Nian's hand and continuing to walk forward.

Even though both Xiao Mobai and Gu Nian wore masks to hide their outstanding looks, the nobility on their bodies was still difficult to hide, causing the people on the street to turn around frequently and look at the man and woman wearing the same style and color clothes.

The woman looked at Xiao Mobai and felt that he was like a handsome young man transformed from a fox fairy. When the man looked at Gu Nian, he thought she was like a little fox turned into a fairy.

The looks of many men made Xiao Mobai very unhappy. He looked over with a cold look, and was so frightened that he looked away at the two people.

Gu Nian didn't notice the gazes around her at all. All her attention was attracted by the vendors around her.

Especially when he saw a candy seller's stall not far from him.

"Brother Mo Bai, let's go there, I want that candy man."

Gu Nian took Xiao Mobai's hand and walked forward quickly.

"Okay, slow down a little. The candy man is right there and he won't run away."

Xiao Mobai was held by Gu Nian, teasing Gu Nian dotingly.

Gu Nian didn't care what Xiao Mobai said, all she saw now was the candy man.

The candy man's stall was surrounded by children on three floors inside and three outside, and they were asked to make all kinds of small animals.

"Boss, I want one too."

Although Gu Nian also wanted candy figures, she still waited patiently for the children's candy figures to be finished before speaking.

The boss looked up at the man and woman wearing masks and holding hands, and responded with a smile.

"Okay, what does Madam want?"
