Gu Yanan took the note, wiped the blood off his armor with his left hand, and said helplessly: "Don't call me Prince, this is a military camp, not a marquis's mansion."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Gu Yanan held his forehead helplessly, and while opening the letter, he shouted, "Even if the king of heaven comes, I won't go back."

He muttered as he opened the note, read its contents, and then fell silent.

But the secret guard Gu San sent today was a young man with a lot of experience. Although he was a skilled martial artist, he was the most tactless person. "Sir, the one who came was the princess. You are also planning to..."

Gu Yan'an was speechless for a moment, and waved his hand with a headache: "Disappear, disappear."

Gu San was puzzled, but his master's words were like an imperial decree, so he immediately hid himself.

Liu Dashan at the side coughed lightly and held back his smile, but seeing Gu Yanan's hesitant expression, he couldn't help but tease, "Tsk tsk, it has always been the case that heroes are reluctant to accept beauties. Why don't you go back to the Marquis' Mansion as soon as possible, holding the beauty in your arms, wouldn't it be great!"

"I'm not going back!"

Gu Yan'an spoke in a firm tone, as if he was trying to hide something. He kept wiping the same spot on his armor, looking a little absent-minded.

Liu Dashan chuckled and shook his head, saying, "It's safer to go pick her up. She's a girl, what if she encounters danger on the way?"

Gu Yanan paused while wiping his hand.

"Go ahead, go tomorrow. There's not much work in the army recently." Liu Dashan continued to add fuel to the fire.

"The Marquis' Mansion will send someone to protect her, so she will be safe along the way." Gu Yan'an looked awkward, and his particularly firm tone seemed to be trying to convince him.

Liu Dashan stood up suddenly, said "Hey", walked to Gu Yan'an and kicked him.

"Tell me, are you still a man? Your wife came all the way to find you, but you refused to pick her up? Are you still a man?"

Gu Yan'an was a little dazed by the kick, but then he thought that what Liu Dashan said was right, so he covered his butt and walked out of the military tent.

It's still early, so we might as well set off now.

……

Horses galloped across the fields, raising a cloud of dust.

Su Jinhua's long hair fluttered in the wind, and the hem of her black skirt sparkled in the sun.

She held the reins tightly with both hands, and her body rose and fell with the rhythm of the horse.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the horse's back, stretching the horse's shadow into a long, beautiful silhouette.

As the sun set in the west, Su Jinhua quickened his pace and headed for the border almost without stopping.

We finally arrived at a town near the border. According to the current schedule, we will arrive in another four or five days.

After entering the city, I found an inn to stay in. After a whole day's journey, hunger was growling in my stomach.

He carefully put down the bag, which contained medicines that he had bought at a high price in Beijing.

Most of the money given by the princess was used to buy medicine.

There are all kinds of medicine, but most of them are for treating leg injuries.

She had to go faster. If she was late, Gu Yan'an's legs would be in danger.

In his previous life, his leg was injured during these few days, so the princess thought Su Ziyu was unlucky and disliked her.

Su Jinhua sat down and ordered a meat dish, a vegetable dish, and a bowl of rice.

After finishing his meal in a hurry, Su Jinhua went upstairs to rest. He could only feel at ease when he held the bag in his arms when he slept.

……

A night passed and at dawn, Su Jinhua woke up and rode his horse hurriedly on his way.

The people from the marquis's family who came to protect him had to quickly get dressed and catch up. If they lost the Crown Prince's wife, it would be troublesome.

As we got closer to the border, the wind and sand became stronger and stronger.

Strong winds blew up yellow sand all over the sky, visibility was extremely low, and it seemed as if the whole world was shrouded in chaos.

The sound of horse hooves echoed across the empty wilderness, accompanied by the sound of sand hitting armor, which seemed particularly desolate.

If there is one thing that is beautiful about a border city, it is the night sky.

When Su Jinhua finally passed through the sandstorm area, it was already dark.

When she stopped to rest, she looked up and saw the night sky dotted with stars, like sparkling gems inlaid on the black Xiliang goose down blanket.

The bright moonlight shines on the ground, adding a bit of mystery and romance to this desolate border.

Su Jinhua gazed at the starry sky quietly. In this remote and lonely border, the starry sky seemed to be the most beautiful comfort.

"It is truly as brilliant as the stars, as if it came from the sky."

A voice came from not far away.

Su Jinhua was startled and subconsciously reached for the dagger at his waist, looking vigilantly towards the source of the sound.

Not far away, behind a big rock, a man sat up lazily and looked towards Su Jinhua.

When he saw her face, the man was stunned, and Su Jinhua was also stunned.

"Sir!"

"It's you!"

The two said in unison.

Su Jinhua looked at Gu Yanan in surprise, then looked at his legs.

In perfect condition!

Fortunately, she caught up.

Gu Yan'an coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed. He had just heard the sound of horse hooves and thought it was a traveler on the road. Who would have thought that he would run into Su Jinhua who came to look for him.

"Prince, are you doing well in the military camp?"

Su Jinhua walked over with a faint smile on her face and asked softly.

"It's okay."

Somehow, when facing this wife whom he had only met on the wedding night, Gu Yanan felt very awkward rather than disgusted.

"That's good."

Gu Yan'an looked around her and saw no guards accompanying her, so she couldn't help but frown.

"You came here alone?"

"Yes."

"Why don't you bring your own guards?"

Su Jinhua smiled softly: "I just want to take care of my husband. It's inconvenient and not good to bring so many people."

"It's an important place in the army. I'm lucky to be allowed in. How dare I bring more people to disturb the army and cause trouble to it."

This was a beautiful answer. Gu Yan'an was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but praise her for being well-behaved and sensible.

"Sir, let's rest for a night and set off back to the camp tomorrow."

"it is good."

After all, I only met Gu Yanan once on our wedding night, so naturally there wasn't much to talk about.

Su Jinhua didn't care. He had been traveling in a hurry and sleeping in the open air for the past few days and was already exhausted.

I slept on the ground, with the sky as my blanket and the ground as my bed, and I felt like I was in a free and easy world.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell into a deep sleep, but she would wake up from time to time and open her eyes to see if Gu Yanan was there.

Fortunately, he was there.

Su Jinhua woke up at dawn.

When he got up, he was covered with a robe.

Su Jinhua was stunned for a moment, put away his robe, and stood up to look for Gu Yanan.

"you're awake."

When she turned around, she saw Gu Yanan, wearing only his inner clothes, holding a pheasant, standing behind her with an expressionless face.

"I caught a pheasant, ate it and set off on my journey."

"it is good."

Gu Yanan’s skill in roasting the pheasant is pretty good. It’s just barely edible, and it’s the best thing that can fill your stomach in the wild.

After eating, the two set off, and Su Jinhua rode his horse closely behind Gu Yanan.

"Can you ride a horse?"

"I learned it when I was young, but I haven't ridden for a long time. I'm not as good as you, Prince. I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"Among women, I'm considered okay. I grew up on horseback, so it's normal that you can't beat me."

"I'm glad that the prince doesn't mind." Su Jinhua lowered his posture appropriately, which won Gu Yanan's favor again.
