Gu Ruoyun asked, “How long can it last?”
Old Ma had thought about this question for a long time and replied immediately, “A month.”
Gu Ruoyun nodded and looked at Jin Tong, “What are the chances of getting shao zhi in Dragon’s Abyss, Tianjian?”
Jin Tong replied confidently, “I’m 100% sure that it’s there.”
Gu Ruoyun pondered for a moment and replied, “Alright, we will make a trip.”
An Yi immediately accepted the order.
Su Yan suddenly said, “I want to go, too.”
Gu Ruoyun frowned but before he could refuse, Jin Tong interrupted him, “Princess Consort, you really have to go with them.”
Gu Ruoyun turned to look at her and asked for an explanation.
Jin Tong smiled brightly and said, “The Dragon’s Abyss is called Dragon’s Abyss because there’s a flood dragon living in the waterfall. It loves beautiful women the most.”
The few of them understood what she meant and Gu Ruoyun said, “You can go, too.”
Jin Tong looked even more embarrassed and said, “I played with that flood dragon once when I was a child. It probably hates me to death when it sees me.”
Everyone present was silent.
Su Yan quickly said, “Just let me go with you.”
Gu Ruoyun furrowed his brows and said, “There are many beautiful women.”
After they spoke for 15 minutes, he compromised while Su Yan was acting coquettishly.
Jin Tong secretly smiled. She glanced at the impassive An Yi beside her and sighed again, wondering when this blockhead would come to his senses.
The four of them packed up and were ready to leave. Nalan Cui would handle the matters in the palace and he personally came to send them out of the city.
Su Yan turned around and saw that Nalan Cui was accompanied by a eunuch. It was the eunuch who had made things difficult for them the other day. She could not help but frown.
Gu Ruoyun asked, “What’s wrong?”
Su Yan quickly recounted what had happened that day and said worriedly, “I wonder who this eunuch belongs to. Will Nalan Cui be in danger with his presence?”
Gu Ruoyun replied calmly, “Don’t worry, he can handle it.”
Su Yan put down her worries and decided that Nalan Cui’s personality would not be at a disadvantage.
The few of them had traveled for a few days before they were close to the border of the Southern Kingdom. The closer they got, the more nervous Jin Tong was.
Su Yan asked, “What’s wrong?”
Jin Tong smiled and replied, “Nothing.”
Just as she finished speaking, she began to complain, “It’s all because of my brother. We went out together, but neither of us returned to the country. It’s all because he implicated me. When we enter the Southern Kingdom, you must not expose my identity.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows and said, “It seems that the matter of you running away from the marriage is more serious. No matter how I look at it, you’re the one who implicated Prince Yueling.”
Jin Tong’s expression stiffened and she stubbornly replied, “How is that possible? It is clear that it is more serious for the prince of a country to flee the country.”
Gu Ruoyun replied, “The two of you are the same.”
Jin Tong did not continue speaking and lowered her head gloomily.
An Yi inadvertently glanced at her and took out a hat that had the characteristics of the Southern Kingdom and threw it at her head. The long brim of the hat immediately covered half of her face. Coupled with the change in the color of her hair, it was really hard to tell who she was.
Jin Tong touched the hat and said excitedly, “An Yi, when did you buy this? Did you buy it specifically for me?”
An Yi replied coldly, “It’s to prevent you from implicating us.”
These words made Jin Tong pursed her lips speechlessly.
Su Yan looked at the interaction between them and was a little surprised. The worry in An Yi’s eyes just now was not as heartless as he had said.
Gu Ruoyun was not interested in their matters and focused on Su Yan.
At night, they finally entered the Southern Kingdom.
The few of them got out of the carriage and found an inn to stay. After a few days of traveling, they were exhausted and went to rest without saying anything.
After Su Yan had washed up, she looked at Gu Ruoyun who was looking out the window and asked, “What’s wrong?”
