I think my luck is turning around.

After that, there was no further news. The next morning, they still needed to travel, as they were getting closer and closer to Yanfei Kingdom. There were no problems along the way, perhaps due to the help they received from their organization. Once they reached the outskirts of Rui Kingdom, the real challenge would begin!

After more than ten days of travel, the team has taken shape and is working in perfect harmony. We have now left Switzerland, and the land of Yanfei feels very close. However, the sweltering heat is a significant obstacle.

As night fell, they arrived in the summer city of Yanfei Kingdom. Now that Huang Lan had entered Yanfei Kingdom, Lin Jingqing had used some disguises to make him look quite different from his original self.

Li Yuesheng, in a display of great generosity, booked an entire inn for the caravan to rest. Inside the private room, the six people gathered again, the table laden with a variety of dishes. An Ge sat down and began to eat, completely unconcerned about the content of the meeting.

"Now that we are in Yanfei Kingdom, we need to help Huanglan complete the storyline. It is time for the eldest prince to take power."

Ji Xia's expression was serious. Since entering Yanfei Kingdom, she had seen many people heading north. Although the north was Rui Kingdom, who would be willing to leave their homeland?

It seems that the current ruler of Yanfei Kingdom does not care about the people's livelihood.

"How did such a country end up in the hands of such a person? Is this king only interested in the throne?"

The repeated questioning made Ji Xia wonder if this country could be directly attacked and annexed into the territory of Rui. But this was just a thought; right now, the priority was to ensure this group could successfully enter the capital.

"We must remain vigilant and avoid giving anything away. The current king is certainly watching everything closely, after all, the second prince's younger brother has still not been found!"

Li Yuesheng looked down at the bowl and chopsticks in front of her, saying nothing more. The current situation was something she had never encountered before, naturally very exciting. She was definitely hiding her excitement, not letting it show.

"The caravan will continue trading tomorrow, but the seven of us will head directly to Cangdu. We're going to Cangdu to visit our relatives, understand?"

Ji Xia simply felt that the caravans were quite conspicuous, so going alone was also an option. After all, their destination was the same: Cangdu!

Cangdu is the capital of Yanfei Kingdom, and we must depart early tomorrow morning; there's no time to lose. However, its appearance in the middle of the night is too unusual, so we can only try to justify it.

The next morning, Shi San stood by Huang Lan's bedside as if he had been standing there all night. Shi San then slapped Huang Lan across the face, leaving Huang Lan looking confused. However, Shi San then pulled Huang Lan to the back door of the inn.

Everyone else was already there. Huang Lan was puzzled and was about to ask a question when Shi San covered her mouth.

"Keep quiet, we're going to Cangdu now, let's go quietly."

Shi San's words were naturally valid, and Huang Lan accepted and carried them out without saying a word. The seven people and seven horses set off immediately after leaving the city gates. Along the way, they encountered many refugees, mostly impoverished people. Seeing this, Ji Xia felt that even reaching the granary wouldn't be simple; something even more troublesome awaited them!

"Everyone, please be careful."

Ji Xia dismounted and tossed the reins to Li Yuesheng, who was nearby. Ji Xia then approached a young girl who looked quite young and asked her about their destination.

Where are you all headed?

"We can't stay in Yanfei Kingdom any longer. To survive, we need to head north. We heard that Switzerland will accept us."

What exactly happened in this country?

"Ever since the eldest prince took the throne three years ago, nothing good has happened. Now, I don't know which swindler he listened to, but he wants to build a palace to show off his great achievements. Many men are just captured, beaten to death, and thrown back. That's why no one wants to stay in Cangdu anymore, and no one wants to stay in Yanfei Kingdom."

"Extravagant construction projects, a cruel and incompetent ruler."

Ji Xia muttered to herself, "This is something that absolutely cannot be let go. It seems that this king is truly a foolish ruler!" After thanking the girl, Ji Xia mounted her horse and continued to move forward against the flow of people.

This city of Cangdu definitely needs a overhaul now, and the king certainly won't let it go. Without any luggage, they arrived in Cangdu City in less than two days. It still looked prosperous. After dismounting, the seven of them went straight into Cangdu City. Looking at the city, which seemed no different from ordinary streets, was it really as the girl had described?

The hawking was lively. Ji Xia walked into one stall to look around, then moved on to the next, just like she was really strolling through the streets. The others followed behind Ji Xia, though they were puzzled, they still stayed with her.

"Where are we going now?"

"Let's go to the inn to rest. We're really tired from the journey."

Ji Xia stopped in front of a stall, looking at the dazzling array of goods, and curiously picked up a hairpin. Then she put it down and continued walking towards the next stall. By the time they reached the next stall, everyone in the group was holding a candied hawthorn stick, and they really looked like they were out shopping.

They arrived at a very grand inn, and Ji Xia followed without hesitation, booking seven rooms immediately. After everyone was settled into their rooms, they prepared to get some sleep.

"Early to bed and early to rise are good for good health."

The warehouse was quiet at night, with only patrolling soldiers and faint footsteps. Huang Lan had already walked quietly to Shi San's door, knocked three times, and then opened it.

Shi San was somewhat puzzled by Huang Lan's appearance, but he still let him in.

"What are you here for?"

Shi San sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, watched Huang Lan close the door, and then said very carefully, "I think I'm from Cangdu. I'm very familiar with this place; many places look familiar."

Huang Lan's words did not pique Shi San's interest. Shi San simply listened quietly without responding at all.

"Owner."

Upon hearing Huang Lan's words, Shi San looked up with great interest. He just blurted out that title? During the day he called him Brother Ji, but now he's calling him Master?

"Shouldn't we call him Brother Ji?"

"I want a master."

Perhaps Huang Lan didn't mean that at first, but now she definitely did. Huang Lan stared intently at the person in front of her, then knelt down and moved towards Shi San, bowing low to lie directly at Shi San's feet.

Shi San stroked Huang Lan's hair; it really was a big, well-fed dog!

"You came to my room not just to tell me you know this place well, right? Maybe there's something else going on!"

Shi San's tone trailed off with a rising intonation, a clear indication of his determination. Huang Lan immediately rubbed against Shi San's leg. Shi San was happy to see such a big dog, but how could he play with it to make it fun? We won't go into details here.

The next morning, the two were still naked on the bed, Huang Lan's body covered in marks. Shi San, of course, wouldn't refuse such a toy.
