Shenwu Gate, the main force is ready.

The weather was extremely cold, and except for those who had to drive the carriage and the guards, everyone else hid in the carriage.

"The auspicious time has arrived, let's go!"

In this loud shout, the ending tone of the word "travel" was intentionally prolonged.

Then, the leading carriage slowly started to move, and one carriage after another moved forward, with guards following on both sides of the carriages at all times.

Among the group of carriages, Kangxi's carriage was in the middle, and the most luxurious and eye-catching one was Kangxi's carriage.

This carriage is extremely luxurious, with six horses pulling the carriage side by side, showing unparalleled majesty and momentum.

The exterior structure is made of high-quality, solid wooden materials, and the walls are carved with exquisite patterns. Every stroke of the carving demonstrates the extraordinary skills of the craftsmen.

On the front of the car hangs a unique emblem belonging to the emperor, representing the supreme imperial power.

The interior of the carriage was covered with thick tiger skin mats. It was spacious and comfortable, so you could even stand and walk in it. There was also a bed for resting and sleeping.

The prince stood on the wall of Shenwu Gate and watched the team depart from Shenwu Gate like a long dragon and head south.

He leaned his hands on the city wall, slowly raised the corners of his lips, and his eyes showed an ambition that was difficult to conceal.

The Emperor has left, and now all matters in the palace will be subject to his arrangements.

After several days of hard work, Xiyu slept until dusk.

But in fact, she did not sleep peacefully at all. Sometimes she dreamed that she had lost all her spiritual power and died of spiritual roots drying up; sometimes she dreamed that Yinzhen met an assassin on his southern tour and died on the road after being injured by the assassin, and her mission ended there...

The sun sets and night falls.

When she woke up again, she was alone in the room.

The room was silent, with no sound except for the rustling of the quilt when she stood up.

Xiyu looked around, it was empty, an indescribable feeling of loneliness came over her heart, she felt like she had been forgotten by the whole world.

There was an unbearable loneliness in her heart. Her lips were pursed and her eyes were filled with tears. She felt like she was about to shed golden beans.

"Squeak~"

The door was pushed open from the outside, and Nanny Su and Chun Shi Xia Ying walked in, bringing with them the light of candles.

"Little squeamish kid, now that you're awake, go wash up and eat something."

Nanny Su placed the tray in her hand on the table in the room and lifted the bed curtains and tied them on both sides.

With three more people in the room, it suddenly became lively.

Xiyu's lonely and sad mood was interrupted directly. The haze dissipated and she showed a very charming smile, but her eyes were still swollen like walnuts.

"Stop laughing at me, Mammy."

She slowly got out of bed, took the handkerchief handed to her by Chunshi, wrapped ice cubes in it and applied it to her swollen and uncomfortable eyelids.

The coolness brought by the ice cubes made her sigh softly, which relieved the pain in her temples and relaxed her tense nerves.

After a short rest, Xiyu simply washed up and moved to the table to sit down and prepare for dinner.

“Mmm…it smells so good!”

As soon as she sat down, an enticing aroma hit her face.

"I can tell from the smell that this is made by Mammy herself."

As she spoke, she had already picked up the chopsticks and skillfully mixed the various side dishes on the bowl.

Xiyu couldn't wait to pick up a piece with chopsticks and put it into her mouth, chewing and savoring it carefully. The unique taste and rich aroma made her feel instantly happy, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes.

A mouthful of noodles cheered her up.

After dinner, she took out the ideas for the storybook hidden in the interlayer and prepared to start writing the first half.

"Haruto, what are you doing with the quilt?"

As Xiyu was writing, she suddenly noticed that Chunshi and Xiaying were busy making the bed and the quilt on the bed was replaced with a new one.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs said that the new tribute cotton is very good, and the prince said that all the nobles in the palace need to change their quilts."

"Oh."

Xiyu nodded slightly, not caring, and continued to think about the story he was writing.

She slept a lot during the day and had trouble sleeping at night, so she just got busy and didn't feel sleepy until the second half of the night.

As she tossed and turned, she always felt that the quilt covering her body was very strange, and had a faint smell that she didn't like very much.

In the front yard of East Third House, Gao Wuyong didn't think twice before sending the letter out.

Hundreds of miles away from the capital, the southern tour team set up camp directly in the wild.

At dawn, the young eunuch sneaked into Yinzhen's tent and handed him the letter delivered by a galloping horse.

When Yinzhen saw the letter, his face became grim and his brows were tightly furrowed.

The young concubine cried for a whole day and didn't sleep all night. Wouldn't it make her happy if the nanny who had been with her since she was a child was sent to the palace?

At 1 a.m., wisps of smoke rose from the camp. The southern tour team gradually became lively and began to pack up.

Yinzhen put down the pen in his hand and blew on the ink that was not yet completely dry.

He rolled up the paper and stuffed it into a bamboo letter tube. "Send it back as fast as you can. Make sure it reaches Fu Jin before nightfall."

When the southern tour team packed up and continued to head south, Xiyu also woke up.

She sat at the table and slowly savored the breakfast that was served to her. I heard that the shrimp dumplings were made by a chef from Lingnan and the taste was very authentic.

The porridge in the bowl looked soft, sticky and thick. Xiyu stirred the bowl with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and put it to her lips. Suddenly, she smelled a very faint smell that was not porridge.

An ordinary person would not be able to smell it.

She took a sip, then calmly poured the remaining porridge back into the spoon, used the spoon to stir the rice grains, and asked calmly, "Who went to get the breakfast?"

Haruto obeyed and said, "Yes, my servant."

Xi Yu lowered her eyes and several possibilities flashed through her mind. She was the one who brought Chun Shi into the palace, so it definitely wasn't her.

"Go to the kitchen and ask if there is any leftover porridge. If there is, bring it all over."

Although Haruto was confused, he did not hesitate at all in his actions.

"But there's something wrong with this porridge? Is it poisonous?"

Nanny Su was experienced and could guess a little bit from her expression.

Xi Yu shook her head slowly, "It's not poisonous, but it has some weird things added to it, which is very uncommon."
