The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

Guan Yao's eyes were full of viciousness. Even if she had no other way out, she would drag Song Xiwan down with her to take the blame!

Zhang Qi didn't notice Guan Yao's expression, and just said with a last bit of kindness: "For the sake of our past friendship, I will take good care of you when I return. Is there anything you need?"

The journey back to the capital is long, and Guan Yao is injured, so it is important for her to feel comfortable.

Guan Yao concealed the undercurrent in her eyes and shook her head slightly.

"When to set off?"

Zhang Qi thought Guan Yao had given up, so he softened his tone and said, "In the afternoon, I'm still having people prepare things for the journey."

Guan Yao didn't say anything else.

Then, she only had one hour left.

Shangjing City is the territory of noble ladies like Song Xiwan. She will definitely be found guilty in this case, and according to the law, even if it is not a death sentence, she will be sentenced to life imprisonment.

How could Guan Yao be willing to accept this?

She wants to kill Song Xiwan!

At this moment, Song Xiwan was questioning Mu Yun, who had personally delivered the letter, "Is the situation in Yuzhou so dire? Why was Yan Wushuang the only one sent?"

Mu Yun broke out in a cold sweat. This was something even he didn't understand.

The prince's decision is very strange.

He hesitantly explained, "The prince... must have his own considerations. He wouldn't tell me everything in detail. I was just following his orders."

Seeing that Mu Yun really didn't know, Song Xiwan's expression tensed.

The more I think about it, the weirder it gets.

Why did you have to specifically name Yan Wushuang?

"So, you know what the situation is like in Yuzhou, right?"

Mu Yun couldn't hide it, so he had to tell her about the mysterious military advisor of Cang State. In order not to make Miss Song worry, he also said that there was nothing unusual about the prince.

Song Xiwan felt that as a head coach, Xie Chengqian had to remain calm in times of crisis.

If the coach is confused, how can we win the battle?

This requires requesting rescue, which means the situation is urgent.

"In that case, I will go to Yuzhou with you."

"what?"

Mu Yun blinked blankly, then hurriedly refused, "But the prince didn't say that you, Miss Song, should go. Don't we still need you in the military camp?"

Song Xiwan said calmly, "Qi Yi is dead, and no one will come to disturb the military camp anymore."

Mu Yun asked, "Why are you so sure, Miss Song?"

There are quite a few people in Cang Country, and it is inevitable that some people want to avenge Qi Wei. For example, Yan Niang was also in danger last time.

Song Xiwan looked at Mu Yun with an indescribable look, and the disdain in her eyes was evident.

Mu Yun: “…”

If you have something to say, why not just say it directly? How can you hurt him with such a look?

"You are all familiar with the remaining princes of Cang State. None of them would risk their lives to avenge Qi Wei. Even if Qi Wei's loyal subordinates came, the generals in the barracks would not be pushovers."

Song Xiwan explained in a calm voice.

Mu Yun found it difficult to refute. It was said that Miss Song was so talented and so smart that she could make a name for herself.

"But the prince..."

Song Xiwan bluntly dispelled his doubts, "The prince left me here, firstly to keep me out of danger, and secondly to allow me to go and rescue when needed. There are many dangers here now, and there is indeed a need over there. What's wrong with me going there myself?"

Mu Yun deeply realized that he could not win the argument with Miss Song at all.

Finally compromised.

In order to prevent Miss Song from traveling at night, he originally wanted to schedule the return trip for the next day, but Song Xiwan said that she had to leave as early as possible to avoid delays.

In addition to them and Yan Wushuang, Song Xiwan brought all the Purple Gold Guards with him, and the remaining generals guarded the important areas in the rear and waited for orders.

Everything is ready.

Mu Yun couldn't help but sigh, "Miss Song has only been a Deputy Minister of the Ministry of War for a short time, yet she already knows so much about maneuvering."

Song Xiwan curled her lips, "That's natural. I can't hold you back."

Before they set off, Zhang Qi came to report to Song Xiwan about escorting Guan Yao back to Shangjing City.

"I will take the official road back to the capital later. After escorting Guan Yao back, I will come back to help the prince and Lord Song solve their problems."

When mentioning Guan Yao, Song Xiwan's expression faded a little and he hummed lightly.

Zhang Qi, however, looked hesitant. "It's just that I just heard that Guan Yao wanted to see you, sir. What do you think?"

Song Xiwan raised her eyebrows slightly.

There was no need to guess why Guan Yao wanted to see her, it was nothing more than those unbearable words.

She refused outright, "That's not necessary."

Zhang Qi was stunned for a moment, but in the end he didn't ask any more questions and prepared to retreat.

Unexpectedly, a soldier came running over and shouted, "No, General Zhang, General Guan is missing!"

A loud thunder suddenly struck, leaving everyone present stunned.

The military camp is so small, how can you escape?

Zhang Qi was extremely panicked. The person was under his care, and if he escaped, it would be his responsibility.

"Go find her quickly! The security here is tight, she can't get out easily, she must be hiding somewhere, send more people to search."

The soldiers had no choice but to agree.

Zhang Qi turned around and saw Song Xiwan's half-smile. His heart tightened and he said helplessly, "Sir, I don't know how she escaped."

Song Xiwan said considerately, "General Guan has made great military achievements. It's inevitable that some people in the barracks will not be able to bear to see her in such a state, and it's understandable that they would help her."

Of course, this is extremely difficult to implement.

The probability of Guan Yao escaping is less than 10%, but she still chose to do so, which means that her intention is probably not to escape.

Zhang Qi was even more embarrassed, after all, he had actually had such an idea!

"I will definitely find him back."

"Go."

Song Xiwan's tone was very calm, which made Mu Yun look at her in confusion.

As soon as Zhang Qi left, Mu Yun couldn't help but ask, "Miss Song, have you guessed where Guan Yao is?"

Song Xiwan glanced at him with an affirmative look.

Most likely, he was watching from the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to kill her?

When Mu Yun met the sneer in Miss Song's eyes, he couldn't help but tense up, and a guess flashed through his mind - Guan Yao was probably finished.

Song Xiwan suddenly said, "You've been traveling all the way and I'm sure you haven't had a good meal. I'll have someone prepare a meal for you while there's still time."

Mu Yun's words "No need" were stuck in his throat, and he watched Miss Song walk away.

He probably guessed Miss Song's intention and stopped abruptly.

With Miss Song's martial arts skills, Guan Yao really couldn't beat her.

Ugh.

He still had a life left, but he gave it away by abandoning himself.

Mu Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound of fighting in front of him. When he rushed over, the assassination, which was a sure thing, was over.

Guan Yao fell to the ground in a mess, glaring at Song Xiwan fiercely, "Bitch, you will die a miserable death!"

Song Xiwan remained unmoved by her insults and said in a very calm voice, "Why are you wasting your energy when you know you can't beat me?"

Mu Yun couldn't stand it any longer and kindly advised: "Guan Yao, you'd better not make the same mistake again."

"You said I was wrong?"

Guan Yao's eyes were bloodshot, and she was filled with grief, anger and disappointment.
