Seeing his precious granddaughter coming back, Old Master Gong smiled and bowed, "What a coincidence today."

Gong Jinjin smiled and saluted the two elders. "Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Jiao."

Mr. Zhang was okay, but Mr. Jiao was particularly kind. "Jinjin is back. Come to Grandpa Jiao's house when you have time. Your sister Ying has been missing you for days."

Gong Jinjin replied obediently, "Thank you, Sister Ying, for thinking of me. I will definitely go visit her when I have time in the future."

Seeing that the person had left, Gong Jinjin's smile immediately disappeared, and she looked unhappy, "Grandpa, did you really find the princess?"

Old Master Gong said with some regret, "Now that I've found it, Jinjin, don't think about what happened over there. When you have time, go visit Zhang and Jiao's families more often."

Gong Jinjin curled her lips and said, "Grandpa, I don't like them. In terms of appearance and ability, who can compare to them——"

Elder Gong interrupted, "Jinjin, Mr. Zhou Er is not bad either."

"Grandpa!" Gong Jinjin said angrily, "Don't mention this idiot in front of me. He's nothing."

Old Gong's smile faded slightly as he said calmly, "He is considered the second son of the Nanyue Palace."

Gong Jinjin said with a gloomy face, "Grandpa, I'm tired and will go back to rest first."

Yueyun and Yueqiao looked at each other and saw a hint of fear in each other's eyes.

Gong Jinjin returned to Wutong Garden with a gloomy face. Seeing that the house was still in the same state as when she left, her expression became a little better.

"Yueyun, help me bathe."

"Yes." Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

According to divination, the water element will be in good luck at the hour of Yin the day after tomorrow, which is an auspicious day and time to travel.

Lu Yun sat in the carriage, silently watching the ship leave the dock. Suddenly, she felt confused. Could she really succeed? What if, what if they couldn't come back?

Cai He saw the worry on her master's face and whispered, "Master, Miss Dashou sent you a message a few days ago, saying that she found many interesting things in the mountain that the prince gave you. Why don't you go take a look? You can also go back to see Old Madam Gao on the way."

"Okay, let's go now." Lu Yun looked at Cai He and suddenly smiled. She had done everything she could, and the rest was up to God. Besides, wasn't she the girl of destiny?

Cai He was surprised. "Master, now?"

Lu Yun was very sure, "You don't have to go back to pack now. I took some of my daily necessities with me when I packed up."

Cai He still felt something was wrong. "Even so, we should send someone back to tell the prince."

Lu Yun turned around, lifted the carriage curtain, and said to the driver, "Brother, I am leaving the city now. Do you have a way to tell the prince where I am going?"

Under Caihe's surprised gaze, the driver nodded silently twice.

Lu Yun snorted and lowered the curtain.

The carriage can only go to the foot of the mountain, and the rest of the mountain road has to be walked.

The rising sun in the distance cast a thousand golden rays, shrouding the mountains and forests in a golden veil. Lu Yun breathed in the fresh mountain air, feeling her heart broaden. Perhaps people in this world always seek their own troubles.

“Gray!!!!” Lu Yun stood at the edge of the cliff and shouted at the house on the opposite mountain.

The big gray wolf dog that was sleeping at the door suddenly pricked up its ears, then woofed and ran quickly towards the direction where the sound came from.

Biyu was very excited. "Master, the princess is here to see you."

Dashou stood at the door and saw the figure on the mountain path. His eyes were full of smiles. "Let's go and meet Sister."

Lu Yun sat cross-legged on the ground, opened her arms to hug Hui Hui, and rubbed her hard. "Good boy, are you good around Aunt Dashou?"

Huihui flicked his tail and said, "Woof, woof!"

Dashou hugged Lu Yun and said, "Sister, you finally came to see me."

Lu Yun refused to accept her pity. "Big collection, if you want, you can even buy a yard next to the Nanyue Palace. I guarantee Zhou Boli won't bother with you."

Dashou frowned and said, "Sister, I asked, the courtyard next to the Nanyue Palace also belongs to the Nanyue King, and Zhou Boli refused to sell it to me."

Lu Yun held her forehead and asked, "What else did you do behind my back?"

"The people at the dealership said there's no vacant yard in Dali City that can be sold to someone named Tan."

Lu Yun was speechless. She touched Da Shou with a distressed look and said, "Zhou Boli is indeed too much. If he comes later, I will help you."

Dashou blinked his eyes and said, "Sister, since you rarely come here, why don't you stay in the mountains for a few days? A few days ago, it rained and a hole was washed out on the mountain. Huihui took out a very strange thing from it."

On the table stood a palm-sized square jade object that was bluish-black and missing a corner. Its entire body was carved with coiled snake patterns, and at the top was a Kuifeng with a dragon head and a phoenix body, flapping its wings as if ready to fly.

Lu Yun lifted her chin. Could this be the real deal? She waited to see the eight words below: "Mandate from Heaven, long life and prosperity."

Lu Yun's hands began to tremble.

It really is the Imperial Seal! This is killing me!

Dashou said with certainty, "Sister, you recognize me."

Lu Yun pulled her aside, unsure whether to tell the truth or not. "Dashou, this thing is very, precious. The fewer people who know about it, the better."

Dashou thought for a moment and said in a much softer voice, "Sister, I think I should be able to live next door to the Nanyue Palace now."

After finding a box to pack the things, Lu Yun sat at the door and watched Huihui chewing on a big bone, with a large basin beside her.

Huihui: "Awoo, awoo!" Happy, happy.

When the gorgeous sunset appeared in the sky, she finally saw Zhou Boli on the mountain path. Lu Yun waved to him eagerly, "Zhou Boli!!!"

Zhou Boli felt that he had never run so fast in his life. "Ayun, what happened?"

Lu Yun grabbed his arm, pushed him into the house and closed the door.

When Zhou Boli saw what was on the table clearly, his pupils trembled. "This is——"

Dashou cleared his throat and said, "Zhou Boli, this is for you. Sell me the yard next to your house."

Qin Yuanfu would be more suitable to stay in the dungeon of the Nanyue Palace, but unfortunately he couldn't do that. Zhou Boli took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you."

"This." Zhou Boli was very serious and pointed his finger at the table. "Where did you get it from? Besides you, who else has seen it?"

Qin Yuanfu counted on his fingers and said, "Huihui brought it back. The only people who have seen it are me, Biyu, Hongfei, and Huihui."

"Please keep this a secret, Princess Yuanfu. Otherwise..." Zhou Boli smiled bitterly. "I'm afraid I can't protect your sister now. The Qin Dynasty will definitely send someone to take your sister's life at all costs."

Qin Yuanfu frowned and said in confusion, "It's just a..." Jade Seal.

Zhou Boli shook his head decisively, "This is different."

"Do you want to be the emperor?" Qin Yuanfu asked expectantly. "Do you want to sit on the dragon throne?" The emperor had many concubines.

Zhou Boli saw what she was thinking and his expression turned cold. "You believe me when I say I don't want you to believe me?"

Qin Yuanfu nodded without hesitation, "I believe it." But what she said next made Zhou Boli feel as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly. She said, "If I could become a man and stay by my sister's side every day, I wouldn't want to be some useless emperor."

Zhou Boli's defense was broken in a second, his face turned pale. "Qin Yuanfu, you're dreaming! From now on, I'll be the one living with Ayun!"

Qin Yuanfu glanced at him and said, "Oh, I don't believe this."

Lu Yun, who was sitting on the doorstep holding Huihui and listening for a long time, finally understood what it meant to be completely off topic.

I know you're not getting along, but there's something strange about it—what's that? Sister-con versus the scheming son of a government official? Steve always has to be in a threesome?

The imperial seal was disgraced.
