After hesitating for a while, Ming Sheng sat down at the table and said, "Sister Gu, go to bed early. I'll stay here."

Gu Qinghe had no choice. She could also see that Mingsheng was nervous. If she didn't let him stay here, he would not be able to sleep at all. So she just let him go.

Calculating the distance from here to Yun State, we should be able to reach Yun State in a few days, but it will still take some time to reach the imperial city.

She had the token of the Prince of Yun in her hand, so it shouldn't be difficult for her to enter the imperial city.

But I heard from Shao Wei that Yun State is not peaceful nowadays. Although Yun State only has two princes, the crown prince and the third prince, the brothers of the Yun State emperor are still eyeing them covetously.

In her early years, she devoted herself to putting people around the emperor, and taking advantage of the emperor's deserted harem and the lack of offspring, she only hoped that the emperor would depose the empress or take new people into the harem.

However, all these issues were slowly resolved one by one by the Emperor of Yun State.

As the Prince of Yun grew older, he displayed wisdom and intelligence which gradually silenced the ministers.

With a fairly good crown prince, there is nothing more to complain about for those elderly loyal ministers.

But this is also a good thing for those who covet the throne. After all, if the Prince of Yun is eliminated, the throne will not be inherited by the foolish third prince in the future.

When they were almost reaching Yun State, they didn't encounter any trouble, but they met two people who surprised Gu Qinghe.

Obviously the person opposite was also a little surprised, and stood up and walked towards her.

Ming Sheng became a little alert and immediately held down the sword beside him.

The red spots on Gu Qinghe's face were removed before she left, but for convenience, she still made her face look very ordinary.

"When did you leave? The journey was quite fast." Ouyang Xia pulled Lan Yu and sat down opposite them.

Gu Qinghe looked at the two of them. Ouyang Xia did not hide anything and was still dressed in red, but Lan Yu was disguised by her. He wore a silver mask that only revealed half of his face, and his face was tense, looking like a cold killer.

Gu Qinghe was stunned. It was true that with Lan Yu's appearance, almost no one could tell that he was an idiot.

She pointed at herself first, "How did you recognize me?"

Ouyang Xia sneered, "You can fool me with your disguise, do you know how good I am at judging people?"

Seeing that they were talking happily, Ming Sheng took his hand away from the sword.

"Didn't you write a letter saying you were going to Chizhou? Why did you come directly to Yun State?"

When Ouyang Xia said this, he glanced at Lan Yu beside him, frowned slightly, and whispered: "The assassinations we have encountered recently are too abnormal. He is a little worried about his brother. It's true that this fool's brain is still very useful at critical moments."

He encountered more and more assassination attempts in Rui Dynasty, and those people were aiming to take his life.

The only possibility that these people dared to act so boldly is that the situation of the Prince of Yun State is not good now.

Lan Yu insisted on coming back and didn't want to look for Aning or Meng anymore. Ouyang Xia was so annoyed by him that she simply changed the route on the way to Chizhou and took him back to Yun State.

But the two of them were not as fast as Gu Qinghe, otherwise they would not have met him.

But now that we have met, it is natural for us to walk the rest of the way together.

Ouyang Xia was a little curious, "General Shao actually let you come out alone, it's strange."

Ming Sheng's throat was almost hoarse from coughing. The two looked at her at the same time. Ouyang Xia asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable in your throat?"

Ming Sheng rolled his eyes and said, "Sister Gu came out with me, not alone."

This time, Ouyang Xia looked at him carefully, and after a while, he said "oh" meaningfully.

In her opinion, this should be something General Shao had specially found for Gu Qinghe to entertain her. If it was to be considered as protection, it was probably of little use.

With Ouyang Xia around, the journey became much more interesting.

She insisted on sleeping with Gu Qinghe at night, while Mingsheng was arranged to sleep in the same room with Lan Yu.

Neither of the two men was willing.

Ouyang Xia ignored them and directly pulled Gu Qinghe back to the room.

He took out the small wine gourd he had on him and asked, "Would you like some drink?"

Gu Qinghe hesitated for a moment and nodded, "How about some?"

His eyes lit up, and Ouyang Xia walked to the door and called the waiter to bring two plates of snacks.

She poured a glass for Gu Qinghe, and then filled her own glass, then drank it all in one gulp, sighing softly, "I've been with Lan Yu for this period of time, and every day is like taking care of a child. I haven't drunk much."

Gu Qinghe inexplicably felt that she was a little strange, but he also thought that maybe the time spent with Lan Yu during this period was a little boring, so she was in a bad mood.

After all, she used to have such a carefree and unrestrained personality.

She accompanied Ouyang Xia to drink two cups, "Wait, Lan Yu has been sent to Yun State, do you want to go back to Huicheng?"

"Huicheng?" Ouyang Xia was stunned for a moment, thinking of the contents of the letter sent from home not long ago, he pressed his eyebrows awkwardly, and couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, but nodded, "Of course, there are so many beauties in the mansion waiting for me to favor them. Without me, they must have been lonely during this period."

"But," she hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm not in such a hurry to go back. What about you, what are you doing in Yun State?"

Gu Qinghe did not hide it from Ouyang Xia. He took a sip of the wine in the glass and said slowly, "Let's go to Huxiang and see how powerful the poisonous insects in Huxiang are. By the way, find someone."

"Huoxiang, that's a great place." Ouyang Xia's eyes lit up, "I'll go with you. I'm also quite curious about Huxiang."

Gu Qinghe thought to herself, you are not curious about Hu Xiang, you are clearly curious about Hu Xiang's custom of polyandry.

Having met Ouyang Xia here, the journey to Yun State was finally not so boring. On the other side, in Chizhou, Wei Yanzhou finally learned the reason why Gu Qinghe was not in the general's mansion during this period.

After Gu Qinghe and Ming Sheng left, Wei Yanzhou still took time out every day to come to the General's Mansion. Before, Shao Wei would have someone stop him, but later he just let him go.

The servants in the general's mansion all had a bad attitude towards Wei Yanzhou, so every time he heard the news that Gu Qinghe was gone, Wei Yanzhou never believed it. He always felt that she had specifically instructed the servants to fool him.

But this day he did not rush to leave. Instead, he stood in front of the yard where the two puppies named Qinglong and Baihu lived for a while. Lu Zhiyao and Luo Feng were chatting inside.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Luo Feng missed Gu Qinghe very much.

So he asked Lu Zhiyao when Gu Qinghe would come back.

Wei Yanzhou heard all these words and felt his head buzzing. With a dark face, he rushed into the military camp to find Shao Wei.

At that time, Shao Wei was having a meeting with his lieutenants in the tent. Lirang had suffered heavy losses in food and grass in the past few days. Lieutenant General Liu advocated taking advantage of the situation to kill him and strike while the iron is hot. Now is the time to drive these Lirang thieves out a few miles away.
