Tragic death and rebirth, I remarried the scumbag uncle on the spot

"General Xiao, what brings you here to see me today?" Pei Jin went straight to the point without beating around the bush. It was impossible that Xiao Yan came to him simply to have lunch at this time without any purpose, right?

Xiao Yan laughed twice before saying, "I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Chen arrived in Yuanzhou not long ago. How come he hasn't reached the border yet? I'm really worried about His Royal Highness's safety."

"It's good if everything is fine. If something happens to delay them on the way, I can send someone back to Yuanzhou to help."

Pei Jin looked at him calmly without saying a word.

Xiao Yan immediately said, "Young Marquis Pei, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean to inquire about Your Highness's whereabouts. You know the relationship between Your Highness and His Majesty. If something really happened here, I wouldn't be able to bear the consequences even if I had ten heads."

"Then General Xiao is worrying too much." Pei Jin turned a blind eye, with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Hearing what the young marquis said, I'm relieved." After saying this, Xiao Yan saw that time was almost up, so he continued, "Last time, we seized a sword on the battlefield. It should be the sword of Young Marshal Yu. I wonder if the young marquis can give it to Princess Chen."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yan's eyes fell on Xiao Jin intentionally or unintentionally, observing Pei Jin's expression at any time.

"Princess Chen?"

Pei Jin asked back, looking suspicious.

"Isn't Princess Chen with His Royal Highness Prince Chen?" Xiao Yan pretended to hesitate, then said, "I thought His Royal Highness Prince Chen brought the Princess to the border to relax this time."

Xiao Yan laughed awkwardly.

No matter how stupid Pei Jin was, he understood that Xiao Yan was now trying to find out about Yu Guiwan. No wonder Xie Sui mentioned in his letter that the people behind this incident were targeting the Yu family, and Yu Guiwan was naturally a member of the Yu family.

"Why would Princess Chen come to the border? Ever since the incident with the Yu family, the princess has returned to the Yu Mansion to take care of her mother, so she did not come with Your Highness this time." Pei Jin explained patiently.

"Is that so? Then I'll have to trouble Young Marquis Pei to take the sword back." Xiao Yan had been observing Pei Jin's expression, so he was skeptical about his current statement.

But the news from above could not be wrong. What puzzled him the most this time was that the people on their side had not yet found any information about Yu Guiwan.

"nature."

Pei Jin agreed to the request, and Xiao Yan immediately had his sword brought in. After leaving the sword behind, Xiao Yan left Pei Jin's tent.

After coming out, he immediately waved to Zhuang Feilu. After they were far away, he whispered, "Go check if there's anyone following Prince Chen. If we can't find them, neither you nor I will be able to save our lives."

Xiao Yan was a little anxious. His master was very dissatisfied with the news. If Yu Guiwan had really arrived at the border, and they hadn't found him for such a long time, what was the use of them?

"What if Yu Guiwan is really not at the border? Should we ask the higher-ups again?"

Zhuang Feilu raised his doubts. He thought that there was no trace of a woman for such a long time. Maybe she didn't come to the border at all, but just gave a pretext to confuse everyone.

"You know the temper of your superiors, do you dare to say anything?" Xiao Yan asked back, his face full of gloom.

After hearing what he said, Zhuang Feilu's face changed as if he thought of something, and he lowered his head and said, "I dare not." Both of them knew their master's temper very well. Questioning the master's decision at this time would undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the master.

The border of Youzhou.

"Brother, I'll push you out for a walk." Yu Yanlin's health had almost recovered in the past two days, but there was still no way to treat the condition of her legs and hands. She had not received any letter from her master yet.

"Okay, shall we go into the city early tomorrow morning?" Yu Yanlin seldom spoke during this period. Most of the time, it was Yu Guiwan who stayed beside him and talked. Xie Sui would also play chess with Yu Yanlin every day. If his hands were not convenient, Yu Guiwan would do it for him.

"Bei Chu will go into the city first to gather information. We will go in after we are sure it is safe."

Although Xie Sui was bold in his actions, he was very careful. He had thought of almost everything she could and could not think of.

Bei Chu came back an hour later.

Bei Chu's expression was somewhat serious, and he turned to look at Yu Guiwan, "Princess, the governor said he has been waiting for you for a long time."

Yu Guiwan nodded, "Then let's go now." When she first arrived in Yuanzhou, she did send someone to Youzhou, but she hadn't received any news for such a long time, and she thought it had fallen into oblivion.

She really didn't expect to receive this news just when she was about to reach Youzhou.

"Okay, let's go." Xie Sui gave Yu Guiwan a supportive look. Now it seems that there is not much difference between a moment earlier or later.

……

Prefect's Mansion.

When they arrived, the governor of Youzhou was already waiting at the door.

"Greetings to the Prince and Princess." Although the Youzhou governor had never met the two of them, he had heard many rumors in the capital. The only person who could stand beside His Royal Highness Prince Chen was Princess Chen.

"Hmm." Xie Sui uttered a faint nasal sound.

"Please invite the prince and princess to the palace first."

The Youzhou governor spoke softly, as if on guard against something. He continued, "I have arranged guest rooms in the mansion. I wonder if the prince and princess would like to stay here? Or do you need me to prepare them outside?"

Yu Guiwan looked at him calmly, "Just in the mansion."

After she finished speaking, the Youzhou governor's eyes involuntarily shifted to Xie Sui, subconsciously unable to believe the decision made by Yu Guiwan.

Xie Sui noticed the Youzhou governor's small move. A hint of displeasure flashed across his face, and he asked in a cold voice, "What? Princess, are your words ineffective?"

Xie Sui's eyes and tone frightened the Youzhou governor so much that he immediately knelt down, sweating profusely, "Please forgive me, Your Highness, I didn't mean that." It seems that the rumors in the capital are true. The Princess Chen really holds a great importance in the heart of His Highness Prince Chen.

Xie Sui glanced at him and said with a cold face, "Let's go."

The Youzhou governor walked beside the two of them, and Yu Guiwan pushed the wheelchair and followed Xie Sui. After they arrived at the mansion, the Youzhou governor's expression changed.

"Your Majesty, Princess, General Yu is in the mansion."

The expressions of the people present immediately changed. Yu Guiwan immediately looked at the prefect and asked with trembling lips, "How is my father?" She could see from his eyes that his father's condition should not be good.

Yu Yanlin's face also became tense and he almost held his breath.

"General Yu was seriously injured when he came to the mansion, so the prefectural government took him in. But a few days ago, news came from Yuanzhou that they were looking for General Yu's whereabouts. I learned from the general that something might have gone wrong in Yuanzhou."

"So we've temporarily concealed General Yu's news."
