"It's so late, aren't you resting yet?" Pei Jin led his men to patrol around and came back to find that Yu Guiwan was still sitting by the fire and had not gone far. He approached Yu Guiwan.

As soon as he got closer, Pei Jin smelled a faint smell of alcohol.

"You have such a good thing?" Pei Jin raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Yu Guiwan would carry wine with him. It really caught his eye.

"Would you like to drink?" Yu Guiwan asked casually.

Instead, Pei Jin froze in place, somewhat at a loss. The next second, Yu Guiwan picked up a stone from the ground and threw it out. A large leaf fell from the tree, and she caught it steadily in her hand.

She folded a leaf into a funnel shape, poured some wine from her own wine flask into it and handed it to Pei Jin, "Want to drink together?" Her tone was casual, as if she was asking a good brother of many years.

Pei Jin didn't feel awkward either, so he simply sat down on the ground as well.

The last pot of wine was divided between the two of them using leaves. They didn't talk much while drinking, but instead concentrated on drinking. Pei Jin didn't expect that he could drink wine while traveling, and he actually thought it was not bad.

"This wine is good." Pei Jin praised sincerely.

"It's a pity that this is the last pot. I only brought this one." Yu Guiwan said, then looked at Pei Jin, "The wine is finished, I won't stay with you for long." Yu Guiwan finally felt a little sleepy after drinking.

When she woke up the next morning, Yu Guiwan still remembered that she seemed to have dreamed of Xie Sui last night, but she couldn't remember the specific content.

……

Prince Chen's Palace.

Xie Sui had been dining with Yang Nian these days. After spending these two days together, Yang Nian became more and more satisfied with Yu Guiwan. Xie Sui arranged every aspect of Yang Nian's daily life in detail, and there was nothing wrong to find.

However, both of them have been very worried in the four days since Yu Guiwan left, but neither of them has brought the matter to the surface, so as not to make the other more worried.

But she had seen Xie Sui's reaction in the past few days. She had heard the servants say several times that Xie Sui almost fell while walking. She had also seen Xie Sui sitting in the tea room in a daze several times when she passed by.

Today, Yang Nian waited until she finished breakfast before looking at Xie Sui. "If Your Highness is truly worried about Ah Wan, then go find her. There's no need to worry about any problems on my end."

Xie Sui was stunned for a moment, feeling a little hesitant.

"But Your Highness, please take care of yourself and keep your medicine with you, otherwise Awan will definitely not forgive me when she comes back." Yang Nian said with a smile. She knew that Xie Sui's heart was not here, and she also knew that he had promised Awan to take care of himself.

"Your Highness, don't feel like you're a burden. If anything does happen, you two can discuss it together."

But if it were her, if she had the ability, she would also choose to go to the border.

"Okay, thank you, mother-in-law." Xie Sui didn't hesitate for a moment. He was worried. Although he had arranged everything he could think of, he was still worried.

After saying that, Xie Sui asked Bei Chu to go down and prepare for the trip to the border without saying anything else. Especially during the time he was away, the safety of the entire Prince Chen's Mansion must be guaranteed.

When Bei Chu heard the prince's order, he was not very surprised. He inexplicably felt that this day would come sooner or later, it was just a little faster.

*

Ten days later.

The further they went, the faster they heard news from the border, until one day they arrived at a small town with two roads ahead. Yu Guiwan was hesitating which one to take.

At this time, the spies sent out in advance came back.

"My Lord, Princess, we've won at the border! The enemy has retreated back to the border!" The spy's tone was filled with indescribable excitement, and he was visibly happy.

Won?

Yu Guiwan asked, "How did you win?"

"General Fei Lu of Yuanzhouzhuang led his troops to support us, catching the enemy off guard and immediately turning the situation around for us."

When Pei Jin heard this, the fatigue from traveling all these days instantly disappeared. "So, is there any news about General Yu?"

The spy just shook his head.

Yu Guiwan took a deep breath to calm herself. In fact, by this time, her father was probably in grave danger, but she just didn't want to believe it.

"How can I find out how my brother died?" Yu Guiwan continued to ask. These days, she has been working day and night to get the answer.

"He was assassinated." The spy lowered his head.

Pei Jin looked at Yu Guiwan, "Are you still going to the border?"

"go."

Yu Guiwan narrowed his eyes and said firmly.

"The troops will be divided into two groups. Young Marquis will follow the original planned route from Yuanzhou to the border, and I will go to Youzhou."

Pei Jin frowned and said, "It will take another four or five days to go to Youzhou. It's not worth it." Although he didn't understand what Yu Guiwan wanted to do, he still tried to persuade her.

"Also, our team cannot be separated." Pei Jin looked serious. Other matters could be discussed, but if the troops had to split into two groups, then there was no room for negotiation.

Yu Guiwa looked at Pei Jin's resolute attitude and took a step back. "Then send two people to Youzhou to ask for reinforcements."

"You are crazy!"

Pei Jin lowered her voice as much as possible, not daring to believe what she heard.

At this time, they had already won the battle and did not need so many soldiers to fight the enemy. Moreover, mobilizing troops without the order of His Majesty would be a capital crime.

"I'm not crazy. I think this matter is too strange and I'm worried about Yuanzhou." Yu Guiwan expressed his guess.

Pei Jin pinched his brows, feeling that Yu Guiwan's worry was unnecessary.

Yu Guiwan took out the token, which was the token Xie Sui gave her before leaving. When Pei Jin saw it, he immediately half-knelt in front of Yu Guiwan. Seeing this token was like seeing His Majesty.

Crazy, all crazy!

Pei Jin didn't expect that Xie Sui would actually give this token to Yu Guiwan. What else could he say now?

"Okay, then send two people to Youzhou." Pei Jin had no choice but to agree.

"Then let's go to Yuanzhou now." Pei Jin said again.

Yu Guiwan nodded, and everyone continued to move towards Yuanzhou. They would reach Yuanzhou in less than a day's journey. When they were less than ten miles away from Yuanzhou, Yu Guiwan raised his hand and asked everyone to stop.

"Wait a moment, then go in." Yu Guiwan turned around, picked up his bag and walked in another direction.

After a while, when Yu Guiwan came out again, Pei Jin was stunned and asked tentatively, "Are you still Beiyin?" He looked at her with the same clothes and height, but her face was completely different. She even looked a little similar to Beili who was next to Yu Guiwan.

Now when they stand together, they look like two real sisters.
