"Okay, we'll leave right away."

Wanyan Hongze gently put down the teacup, stood up and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Wanyan Jingyun suddenly grabbed his arm and asked timidly:

"Brother Wang, where are you planning to go? Are you going to leave Jingyun behind again and sneak away?"

"The last time you went to Daye to discuss the marriage, you left Jingyun alone in the palace, causing Jingyun to almost die..."

Wanyan Jingyun was talking when she suddenly stopped.

Her clear eyes suddenly dimmed, her voice trembled slightly, and a few crystal tears rolled down the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, not only did Wanyan Hongze feel guilty, even Abao, who was standing dumb beside him, felt mixed emotions.

"Princess Heyue, the king and I have to go on a long journey for urgent matters. We will be back in the palace in ten days or eight days. Don't worry."

Seeing Wanyan Hongze speechless, A Bao was afraid that Wanyan Jingyun would be heartbroken, so he hurried to explain, but in fact he couldn't bear it.

"Yes, yes, what Abao said is right. Sister, the prince will return to the palace as soon as possible, so you should stay in the palace and don't go anywhere.

If you really feel bored, you can go and play with the second and third brothers, they will protect you."

As soon as A Bao finished speaking, Wanyan Hongze quickly added.

To be honest, he couldn't bear to see his sister sad.

"But I..."

Wanyan Jingyun was still a little worried, choking with sobs and wanting to speak but stopping herself.

Seeing this, Wanyan Hongze couldn't help but feel distressed. He put his arm around her extremely thin shoulders and said with a fake smile:

"Okay! Brother Wang, I promise you, I'll be back when I'm done.

When the time comes, I will bring you your favorite osmanthus cake."

Wanyan Jingyun has been a foodie since she was young and loves osmanthus cake.

When Wanyan Jingyun heard her brother say that he would bring her osmanthus cake when he returned, she seemed to forget her previous worries and became ecstatic.

"Okay, okay! Brother Wang is the best to me! Haha..."

Although Wanyan Jingyun was still somewhat reluctant, in order not to delay her brother's journey, she pretended to be happy and agreed.

"Of course! Po, let's go!"

Wanyan Hongze smiled with satisfaction, gently tapped Wanyan Jingyun's nose, and quietly winked at Abao.

A Bao understood immediately and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."

Then, the two of them quickly turned around and left Tianze Palace, and the man and the horse quickly disappeared from Wanyan Jingyun's sight.

"Xiao Shanzi, where is the Red Hare I asked you to prepare?"

After Wanyan Hongze and Abao walked away, Wanyan Jingyun turned back and urged her personal guard Xiaoshanzi.

Long before arriving at Tianze Palace, Wanyan Jingyun discovered that something was wrong with Abao and quietly led two fast horses out of the stable.

She has always been very curious, and she anticipated at a glance that her brother would leave the palace for a long journey, so she quickly asked Xiaoshanzi to prepare the Red Hare.

"Princess, the Red Hare is ready and over there."

Xiao Shanzi is Princess Heyue's personal bodyguard and is inseparable from her.

Knowing that she was going to prepare a horse, Xiao Shanzi naturally prepared one for himself.

"Okay, I'll go chase my brother now, and you stay in the palace to cover for me.

If anyone asks you, just say that I'm not feeling well and need to rest, and that it's inconvenient to disturb you."

Wanyan Jingyun patted Xiaoshanzi's shoulder with a fake smile, and when he was not paying attention, she quickly rode onto the Red Hare.

With a shout of "Gee", the Red Hare galloped away, leaving a cloud of dust.

"Your Highness! Where are you going? It's dangerous outside!"

By the time Xiaoshanzi reacted, Red Hare and Wanyan Jingyun had disappeared without a trace.

He couldn't help but feel nervous and anxious.

[The princess sneaked out of the palace. What if something happened?]

[What if the princess can't catch up with the king and his people? Wouldn't she be in great danger?]

[No! I have to go and inform the Second and Third Princes!]

Thinking of this, Xiao Shanzi didn't have time to think about it anymore, turned around and ran towards Heping Palace and Yunmeng Palace.

In order to save his own life, he had to report to the second and third princes the fact that Princess Heyue had secretly left the palace.

Xian'an City, the official post station

"Miss, I just heard from the officer that the people of Loulan fought with our people."

Du Qingwan had just laid down and had not had time to close her eyes when Zhao'er suddenly ran over and reported to her in a hurry.

Du Qingwan couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard this.

"Why did they fight?"

This is Du Qingwan's most confusing question.

Although along the way, there were frequent inexplicable conflicts between the Loulan soldiers and the Daye soldiers.

But this time it seems to be more serious than ever before, which is really puzzling.

"It seems that the Loulan people are in a hurry to travel, but our people said that they must rest for a few days, so..."

Zhao'er was talking when he suddenly stopped.

She didn't know what she was worried about.

Most likely he was worried that he might say something wrong and make Du Qingwan unhappy.

"What's there to argue about? I also think it's time to take a good rest for a few days. I'm exhausted from traveling every day."

Du Qingwan pondered for a moment and smiled calmly.

Knowing that she was walking on the road to the underworld, she was not in a hurry to travel!

Isn't that something only a fool would do?

"Miss, what do you mean?"

Zhao'er was still a little confused and really didn't understand what Du Qingwan was thinking.

Ever since Zhao'er learned that Du Qingwan could not reach Loulan at all, her heart has been in her throat.

She was very nervous all the way.

She couldn't wait to reach Loulan.

At least, the Loulan people would not want to take Du Qingwan's life, right?

"I don't mean anything. I just don't want to go to Loulan, and I don't want to see the day when the truth is revealed.

Oh! Forget it, don't worry about it. I can't get there anyway."

As Du Qingwan was talking, she suddenly became incoherent.

There was a hint of sadness in his resentful eyes, and he looked as if he had lost all desire to live.

Zhao'er nodded as if he understood, but said nothing more.

"Zhao'er, I'm sleepy. You should go to sleep too."

Du Qingwan was indeed a little tired. She waved her hand to signal Zhao'er to go back first, and pulled the quilt up.

Seeing this, Zhao'er nodded slightly and slowly left the room.

"If you want to rest, then do so. We will be heading back to Loulan tomorrow!

If anything happens to the princess, you will be responsible for it!"

"That's your business, what does it have to do with us?

Anyway, we will send the princess to your Loulan even if we die!"

As soon as Zhao'er walked out of the room, he heard a fierce quarrel coming from downstairs.

The more she listened, the more she felt something was wrong, so she hurried downstairs.

"Don't be so confident! Our Loulan is in a dangerous place with a very harsh environment. It's a question whether you can survive!"

General Yi Loulan refused to accept the defeat. He stepped forward and pointed at General Yi Daye's nose, his face full of ferocious looks.

General Daye was ordered to escort Du Qingwan to Loulan for marriage, so he naturally would not be afraid of him. He sneered:

"What a joke! We have been to countless battlefields and have seen all kinds of harsh environments. How could we ever be afraid?"

"Haha! What a bunch of ignorant people! Once you enter our Loulan, you will know how painful it is to be slapped in the face!"

Another Loulan guard was dissatisfied and sneered unhappily.

At this time, Zhao'er just happened to walk between the few people.
