The days were neither long nor short. After ten days, they finally arrived at the land of Southern Shu.

Mu Jin was able to arrive in Southern Shu so early, thanks to the speed of Su Yi's carriage team. If it were an ordinary person, it would take at least a month to walk this way.

The capital of Southern Shu was in Bianliang. Mu Jin had been staying in Dongyue since she traveled to this era. She had never been to Southern Shu, but she knew from the words of others that Southern Shu was a very rich country, and Bianliang was even more prosperous.

When Mu Jin was first taken back to the general's mansion by Mu Yan, she was bored every day and went into Mu Weihou Mu Yan's study to look for books to read. She had also seen the description of the Southern Shu Kingdom in the book.

At that time, a thought did flash through her mind, that is, if she had the chance one day, she would also like to go and see how prosperous Bianliang was.

And was Bianliang as prosperous and peaceful as described in the book? Now, looking back, more than a year has passed since she learned about the Southern Shu Kingdom in the book.

And she never thought that the reason she set foot in Bianliang of Southern Shu Kingdom was because of Su Yi.

These days, Mu Jin was no longer seasick thanks to the medicine prescribed by the pharmacist on the boat. It only took her two days to reach Bianliang after getting off the boat.

Su Yi specially prepared clothes from the Southern Shu Kingdom for Mu Jin. Judging from the exquisiteness of the styles, Mu Jin always felt that Su Yi's grandfather might be a royal noble of the Southern Shu Kingdom.

When Su Yi's carriage team arrived at the gate of Bianliang City, the guards saw Su Yi and let him pass without even looking at the token. They saluted Su Yi.

Their procession of carriages and horses was so grand that it attracted a lot of attention when they walked into the streets of Bianliang. The people were talking loudly, "Is the young prince back?"

The voice fell into Mu Jin's ears, and her heart moved, "Young Prince? Could it be that the people of Nanshu Kingdom would be so friendly to the prince of Dongyue Kingdom?"

Just as he was thinking, the carriage curtain was opened and Su Yi rode outside and asked, "Do you want to see the scenery of Bianliang?"

Su Yi had a lazy and somewhat cynical smile on his face. Mu Jin looked out through the curtain he had opened to read the book. It was exactly as she had written in the book.

The shops and restaurants along the road are grand and elegant, and look quite imposing, while the restaurants are also bustling with guests laughing and talking, creating a spectacular scene.

The vendors on both sides of the street were shouting loudly, selling a wide variety of snacks and handicrafts.

People walking by always have bright smiles on their faces. Their clothes are bright and made of high-quality fabrics. Their expressions and bodies are full of health, and they seem to be living a good life!

Although the capital of Dongyue is unusually bustling, this bustle is after all the exclusive domain of the rich and powerful. How can ordinary people expect to step into such a prosperous place?

Even though Mu Jin was knowledgeable and experienced, he couldn't help but look at Bianliang with some curiosity.

Seeing Mu Jin enjoying herself, Su Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, wait until you and I return home to rest for two days, then I'll take you out for a walk. Bianliang is much bigger than the capital, so you'll have to take your time to get familiar with it."

Mu Jin lowered the curtain and sneered, "Why should I be familiar with this place? You should finish the things here quickly, and let me go back to Dongyue Kingdom as soon as possible."

Su Yi's laughter came from outside the carriage. Mu Jin couldn't see Su Yi's expression, but from his voice, he could tell that he must be in a very happy mood at the moment.

I don’t know if it was Mu Jin’s illusion, but Mu Jin always felt that Su Yi’s coming to the Kingdom of Southern Shu was more like going home, and the Kingdom of Dongyue was more like his temporary residence.

While he was thinking, the carriage stopped.

Su Yi got off the horse, and Qing'er lifted the curtain and got off the carriage first. She turned around and wanted to help Mu Jin get off the carriage, but Su Yi had already helped Mu Jin.

When Mu Jin got off the carriage, what came into view was a magnificent mansion. On the tall city gate, two mighty stone lions stood on both sides. The gatehouse was a vermilion lacquered gate, bright and eye-catching, appearing noble and elegant.

Mu Jin raised her eyes and looked upwards, and actually saw the plaque above which read "Princess's Mansion". She was startled and turned to look at Su Yi.

Su Yi saw the surprise in Mu Jin's eyes, bent his charming peach blossom eyes, moved closer to Mu Jin, lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

"I forgot to tell you that my mother is the eldest princess of the Southern Shu Kingdom, and my grandfather is the Emperor of the Southern Shu Kingdom, Emperor Gaozong of Nan."

Mu Jin looked at Su Yi with surprise. You know, the emperor of Southern Shu, Nan Gaozong, only had one daughter, Nan Yu, with his first wife, and no other children after that.

In other words, the only bloodline of the emperor of Southern Shu Kingdom now is the twins left by his daughter, Su Yi and Su Muxue.

No wonder he could easily buy food and supplies in Southern Shu Kingdom and send them to Yanmen Pass.

Su Yi bent his eyebrows and touched Mu Jin's head, and said with a smile: "Let's go in and talk."

After saying that, he took Mu Jin's hand and walked towards the gate of the princess's mansion. When Su Yi and Mu Jin stepped into the gate, a row of guards and servants standing at the door saluted in unison.

"Welcome Your Majesty!"

Su Yi just nodded slightly to those people, then put his arm around Mu Jin's shoulders and walked in.

At this time, a man in his sixties, with a kind face and a butler-like appearance, ran out from the innermost part and greeted them with a smile.

"My little prince is back. It's good to be back. You must have had a hard time on the journey."

Su Yi smiled. "It's not hard at all."

The old butler had received a letter some time ago, knowing that Su Yi would bring back Miss Mu from the General's Mansion of Dongyue Kingdom this time, and asked him to prepare all the necessary utensils for a woman.

The old butler was very surprised at the time. After all, he had never seen any woman around Su Yi.

What's more, she had written a letter in advance asking him to prepare well. He knew that the woman who came back with Su Yi this time might be the future princess, so he did not dare to neglect her.

Thinking of this, the old butler raised his eyelids and looked curiously at Mu Jin beside Su Yi, only to see Mu Jin smiling slightly at him.

The housekeeper seemed a little flattered, and his face turned red. He stammered and greeted Mu Jin.

"This is Miss Mu, right?"

Mu Jin nodded, and the old butler said with a smile: "My surname is Kun, and I am the butler here."

Su Yi was somewhat dissatisfied with the old butler's nagging, so he pulled Mu Jin and walked forward.

"Stop talking. Are the rooms I asked you to prepare ready?"

After a while, the housekeeper led Su Yi and Mu Jin to Mu Jin's bedroom.

In the room, the veil was hanging low, and the breeze blew, creating gentle ripples.

The walls were hung with exquisite embroidered screens and the bed was covered with soft silk bedding.

On the dressing table next to the bed, there are all kinds of exquisite cosmetics and jewelry boxes, which show the care that has been put into decorating this bedroom.

The housekeeper asked, "Miss Mu, is there anything about this room that you are not satisfied with? Please tell me and I will have someone make some changes right away."

Mu Jin smiled and thanked the housekeeper: "No, everything is fine, thank you for your help."

While they were talking, a tall woman in a light red dress, with naturally green eyebrows and naturally red lips, ran quickly to Su Yi and hugged him tightly.

"Brother Yi! You are finally back. Yue'er has finally had you back."

History is always surprisingly similar, just like the scene at this moment. Isn’t this the same scene as the day when Nangong Min returned to Nangong Shenzong and was hugged by his cousin Ling'er?

Thinking of this, Mu Jin sneered, turned to the old housekeeper and said, "Uncle Kun, please take me to the courtyard for a walk. Don't stay here and disturb other people's love affairs."

After Mu Jin finished speaking, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, he turned around and walked out of the room with Qing'er.
