Severed ties and living in a dilapidated house? No worries, the poor thing has a space.

Chapter 489 Yan'er Recalls the Past

Baili Jiyan was already exhausted, but his worry for Su Yu prevented him from collapsing. At this moment, he was forcibly holding on with his last breath.

A slight noise came from the window. Su Yu took the woman out of the space, picked her up like a chick, and flew in through the window.

Upon seeing the three people inside, he couldn't help but chuckle softly, "What are you doing?"

Mo Liu deflated like a punctured balloon, the long sword he was holding clattering to the ground. He said with a helpless expression, "Your Highness, you've finally returned."

Seeing this, Yan'er threw down the knife in her hand without hesitation and hurriedly walked towards Su Yu.

Su Yu casually threw the person she was holding onto the ground, then ripped off the disguise mask from their face.

He walked straight toward Baili Jiyan, saying as he went, "Your injuries haven't even fully healed yet, and you're still causing trouble. Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Baili Jiyan finally couldn't hold on any longer, his legs went weak, and Mo Liu reached out and caught him.

He forced a smile and said to Su Yu, "Ayu, it's good that you're back. You...you weren't in any danger, were you?"

"Don't worry, I brought him back. But it's getting late, let's talk about the rest tomorrow. Don't push yourself, go and get some rest." Su Yu looked at him and gently instructed him.

Upon hearing that Su Yu was safe and sound, Baili Jiyan's tense face, which had been strained with worry, instantly relaxed. Then, his vision went black, and he collapsed.

Although he had taken medication beforehand, he was exhausted after a whole night of tossing and turning.

Mo Liu put him on the bed and settled him in.

Prior to this, although Mo Liu knew that Baili Jiyan was the young master of the Chi Kingdom, he did not expect that he would possess such formidable skills.

If it weren't for the fact that he was seriously injured and extremely weak, he would never have been a match for Baili Jiyan.

On the other side, Su Yu handed the woman over to Yan'er to deal with.

After the candles in Su Yu's room were extinguished, Yan'er came to stand guard outside the door.

Not long after, Mo Liu came looking for Yan'er, carrying some food in his hands.

Upon seeing Yan'er, he said softly, "You must be starving after all that trouble all night."

Yan'er touched her stomach and realized she was indeed very hungry, so she stopped being polite with Mo Liu and took the pastries he offered and started eating.

After filling her stomach a little, Yan'er looked up at Mo Liu and asked, "Before we set off, did the Prince give you any special instructions?"

Mo Liu nodded and replied, "His Highness only instructed me that everything on this trip must be done in accordance with the Princess's arrangements."

Yan'er frowned and continued to press, "Including the Princess acting alone?"

“Yes.” Mo Liu nodded and said seriously, “The prince said that the princess’s abilities are no less than any of ours! So, as long as the princess gives any instructions, I only need to obey.”

Upon hearing this, Yan'er looked at Mo Liu with a strange expression, but ultimately said nothing more.

However, driven by curiosity, Mo Liu quickly shifted his attention to another topic.

He asked with a curious look, "I'm very curious, how did you meet the princess? If it's convenient, could you tell me about it?"

Although a lot has happened recently, and he also heard from Mo Wu about his encounter with the Thousand Feather Guards outside the city.

It is said that the princess came to rescue them all by herself. Alas, it is a pity that he was unable to witness the princess's heroic figure.

As Yan'er ate her pastry, upon hearing Mo Liu's words, she suddenly put down her pastry and began to recount how she met the princess...

When Mo Liu heard that Fu Ju had actually been Su Yu's bodyguard, his eyes widened in disbelief.

That's the ruler of the Chi Kingdom! He even served as the queen's bodyguard. It seems our prince has truly married a priceless treasure!

Thinking of this, Mo Liu couldn't help but secretly marvel at his lord's good fortune.

Yan'er slowly lowered her head, her gaze falling on her legs, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

She murmured softly, "...If it weren't for the Princess's help, I probably would never have been able to stand up again in this life, let alone my brother be able to regain control of the Chi Kingdom. The Princess's kindness to my brother and me is beyond words."

Hearing Yan'er's words, Mo Liu couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt.

He quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring this up and remind you of those painful memories. This pastry is very sweet, have some. It's getting late, go back to your room and rest. I'll keep watch tonight."

After saying that, Mo Liu carefully handed the bag of pastries to Yan'er and gently touched her arm: "Go back quickly."

Yan'er didn't refuse Mo Liu too much. She silently accepted the pastries, turned around, and quickly wiped away the tears that were about to spill from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, which she tried her best to hold back.

Memories of the past flooded her mind like a tide, each scene so heartbreaking and painful that she was unable to control her emotions for a moment.

She didn't want Mo Liu to see her vulnerable side, so she had no choice but to leave in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was fast asleep in her room.

Suddenly, a crisp sound of porcelain shattering came from the next room, instantly breaking the tranquility.

Su Yu suddenly opened her eyes, sat up in bed, and looked astonished.

Yan'er carried a basin of steaming hot water and walked quickly into the room. With a gentle smile on her face, she said, "Your Highness, you're awake. I'll help you wash and do your hair."

Su Yu slowly got out of bed, yawned sleepily, and then turned her gaze to the wall leading to the next room, casually asking, "Is that woman being dishonest?"

Yan'er was standing behind her, gently combing her long hair that cascaded down like a waterfall. When she heard the question, she replied softly, "Mo Liu is interrogating that woman, but she is very stubborn and not very cooperative."

Thinking of the guards who had fought to the death and resisted fiercely before, Su Yu secretly pondered that this woman must also be a tough nut to crack.

After a brief pause, Su Yu asked again, "How is Baili Jiyan doing now?"

Yan'er continued working and replied, "Lord Baili rushed to the yamen early this morning. Judging from his hurried appearance, he must have something important to deal with."

Su Yu was suspicious. Could it be that they had already found clues about the weapons?

After having breakfast, Su Yu strolled to the next room.
