The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

"Your Highness, since the person behind the scenes is about to be revealed, do we need to take some action? After all, the journey ahead may not be smooth." Ye Yaowen said anxiously.

Xie Tianlin shook his head slightly and replied calmly, "There is no need to act rashly for now. I believe the capital has received the news by now. If it goes as I expected, Concubine Tong and Prince Jin will definitely try every means to distance themselves from them. However, being able to eradicate this big cancer, Minister Tong, is also a great gain from this trip."

Ye Yaowen frowned and asked, "Your Highness, do you need to send officers and soldiers to escort us tomorrow?"

Xie Tianlin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and said softly: "Lord Ye, just send a few agile guards to follow. I really want to see how capable they are." There was a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Although the crime of smuggling salt could not completely destroy the power of the King of Jin, it would be completely different if the crime of murdering the crown prince was added. The previous matter was left unresolved due to the lack of solid evidence. However, this time, if the other party dared to take action again, they would definitely pay a heavy price for it...

"Your Highness, it's getting late. Why don't you take a rest first..." Ye Yaowen spoke cautiously, his eyes falling on Xie Tianlin, as if observing his reaction.

Xie Tianlin nodded slightly to show his agreement. He rubbed his brows, revealing a trace of fatigue on his face: "Okay, I am indeed a little tired..." After that, he slowly stood up and walked out of the study with Ye Yaowen.

When Xie Tianlin returned to his residence and opened the door, he unexpectedly found someone waiting inside. When the person saw him, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness."

"It's Anya. Aren't you resting yet so late?" Xie Tianlin looked at the woman in front of him, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

Xiao Anya smiled and replied, "Your Highness, I know you have been busy these days, so I specially prepared some soothing soup. Your Highness has been working hard for many days and must be very tired. After drinking this bowl of soup, you can have a good rest and be more energetic tomorrow."

Xiao Anya gently opened the soup bowl, poured the soup into the bowl, and then carefully handed it to Xie Tianlin.

Xie Tianlin took the bowl, felt the temperature in his hand, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He looked at Xiao Anya and said softly, "Anya, thank you very much." His voice was gentle and low, with a hint of gratitude.

Xiao Anya smiled slightly and said softly, "Your Highness is too polite. These are what a servant should do. Your Highness, you seem a little worried. Have you encountered any troubles?" Her eyes were full of concern.

Xie Tianlin sighed and frowned slightly: "I already know who is the mastermind behind the smuggling of salt. But I'm afraid they will abandon their own interests to save their own. It won't be easy to eradicate them completely..." His tone revealed a hint of helplessness and annoyance.

His fiancée has always been a strong helper to him. Xiao Anya is perfect in terms of status, family background and personal talent. Xie Tianlin trusts her and has always been unreserved towards her.

"Your Highness, in my opinion, this matter may have other twists and turns! Even though that person has extraordinary abilities, he has been caught in a fatal weakness at this moment. If he is not desperate, I am afraid he would not dare to attack Your Highness easily. Moreover, Your Highness, don't you think that getting the account book is too easy? There may be other forces behind this secretly fanning the flames."

Xiao Anya's words woke Xie Tianlin up from his dream: "When the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits. All of my brothers have ulterior motives and are not easy to mess with. Did I neglect it, or did you think it through..."

After this reminder, Xie Tianlin also realized that things were far from as simple as they seemed.

"Your Highness is just worried out of concern. No matter who is helping behind the scenes, they must hope to completely eliminate the mastermind. But we must be more careful in the next few days. If they are forced into a corner... we must not take it lightly!" Xiao Anya said in a serious tone.

"Everyone in the General's Mansion is very skilled. Lord Ye will send a few more good fighters to protect us tomorrow. Anya doesn't have to worry too much." Xie Tianlin gently comforted Xiao Anya who had a worried look on her face.

"It's good that Your Highness knows what's going on. However, it's easier to dodge an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark. I always feel a little uneasy..." Xiao Anya said hesitantly, her beautiful eyes full of worry.

“I’m afraid they won’t dare to take action. Once the crime of smuggling salt is proven, Minister Tong will certainly not escape death, but Prince Jin will have a way to clear himself of the matter… But if they are trying to murder the crown prince…” Xie Tianlin’s voice gradually became low, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Your Highness, but your safety..." Xiao Anya couldn't help but speak, but suddenly stopped, as if it was difficult to say.

Xie Tianlin smiled slightly, reached out and held Xiao Anya's hand, and said gently: "Anya, don't worry. If it really comes to that, will you be afraid?"

Xiao Anya took a deep breath and tried to make her expression firm. She raised her head, met Xie Tianlin's gaze, and smiled: "Your Highness, although I am not proficient in martial arts, I am the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion. How can I be afraid of the enemy? It's getting late, Your Highness, please go to bed early. I will take my leave."

After Xiao Anya finished speaking, she slowly stood up, saluted Xie Tianlin, and then turned and left. Her steps seemed a little heavy, as if she was carrying a heavy burden, but her back was still straight, revealing a sense of determination and courage.

The next morning, before the sun rose, Xie Tianlin and his group had packed their bags and were ready to set off. In addition to the ten elites from the General's Mansion brought by the Xiao sisters, there were also five agile guards sent by Yao Wen. Su Lun sat lazily in the carriage, and heard the voice of the girl next to him chattering about interesting things in the capital, but he didn't find it boring.

The carriage provided by the governor's mansion was much better than the one hired before. Not only was it faster, but the shock absorption and decoration of the carriage were more exquisite. Despite this, Su Lun did not feel too much bumps. After taking the medicine, he could clearly feel that his wound was gradually healing, but it was also accompanied by a burst of itchiness, which made him want to scratch it.

"Brother Su, don't scratch it! The itching of the wound means it will heal soon. It will be bad if you scratch it." The secret elixir of their general's mansion is very effective, but it will produce an unbearable itchy feeling when the wound is about to heal. She herself has experienced this situation before. Seeing Su Lun scratching, she couldn't help but remind him.

Su Lun put down his hand somewhat embarrassedly. However, within one day, the Second Miss Xiao in front of him had changed her address to him from "Mr. Su" to "Big Brother Su". She was eager to compete with him. Su Lun couldn't help laughing. He was now certain that there was no advanced martial arts in this world. His skills might be considered good. Thinking of this, Su Lun felt a little more confident. "Thank you for the reminder, Second Miss. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"Oh, you're welcome. Let me tell you, I used this medicine when I stole my father's weapon but accidentally injured myself. Although it healed quickly, the itching was unbearable. My sister bought many things to appease me, but I almost couldn't help scratching myself and disfigured myself." Xiao An Ning felt a little embarrassed when talking about her embarrassing experience. Her cheeks were slightly red like ripe apples.

"Haha" Su Lun couldn't help laughing.

Xiao An Ning looked at Su Lun's smile and felt it was as dazzling as the warm spring sun. She felt her cheeks a little hot. It must be because the car was too stuffy. "I'll go out for some fresh air." After Xiao An Ning said this, she ran away like a frightened deer.
