Su Ruo merely gave Qi Jingluo a cold response. Qi Muqing asked, "You need to bring so many things?"

"You think it's troublesome?" she asked.

"What's the trouble?"

Su Xiaoyi, who was arguing with Qi Jingluo's errand boy, immediately ran to Su Ruo's side. "Young master, you're here."

Su Ruo looked at him, "How old are you, and you still dare to make a ruckus."

Su Xiaoyi stuck out his tongue mischievously. "Young master is right."

Qi Jingluo's errand boy snorted at Su Xiaoyi. "That's right, you don't have to be ashamed."

Su Xiaoyi rolled his eyes at Qi Jingluo's errand boy and snuggled over to Su Ruo's side.

Qi Muqing had ordered people to move away the boxes and left behind two more Steel Cavalry to protect the village. They also gave two horses to Su Ruo and Su Xiaoyi along the way.

Qi Jingluo's errand boy knew that Su Xiaoyi was going as well. He looked at him with disdain. "No matter what, he's going."

Su Xiaoyi didn't wait for him to reply. "I'm my master's right-hand man, how can I not go?"

Qi Jingluo called out, "Little Hai Zi."

The errand boy immediately stopped.

Su Xiaoyi made a face at Xiaohai in satisfaction. Su Ruo looked at him and asked, "Xiaoyi, do you like women?"

"Women, of course." Su Xiaoyi's face instantly turned red. Could it be that the young master had discovered the secret in his heart?

"But you seem to be interested in Hokkaido." Su Ruo said.

Su Xiaoyi was overjoyed. "Young master, are you jealous?"

"His brain is working hard?" Su Ruo cast a glance at Su Xiaoyi, "If you don't have a brain, why would you ask such a stupid question?"

Xiaohai and Qi Jingluo were amused by Su Ruo's words, and a faint smile appeared in the depths of Qimu Qing's eyes.

Su Xiaoyi knew that he had accidentally violated Su Ruo's taboo. Su Ruo didn't like to talk about feelings and such. He innocently spread his hands, "Young master, I was just joking."

Su Ruo didn't let Su Xiaoyi feel awkward, "You're still blabbering. Let's get ready to go."

Qi Muqing then asked Su Ruo, "Does Miss Su know how to ride a horse?"

"Except death." As Su Ruo spoke, she walked up to the horse and jumped on it.

"Don't ask my young master if he knows anything. You should ask her what else she doesn't."

Qi Muqing's beautiful eyebrows twitched. This woman gave him a feeling of uncontrollable bewilderment, as though she was a mystery. He seemed to reject this feeling from the bottom of his heart, but also seemed to look forward to the feeling of being stirred up.

Qi Jingluo looked at Su Ruo appreciatively and said to Qi Muqing, "Brother Qi, this Miss Su is really interesting, isn't she?" He believed that this trip would be very interesting.

After he finished speaking, he quickly went over to pick the horse closest to Su Ruo and jumped on.

Along the way, Su Xiaoyi was talking excitedly. Qi Jingluo was always by Su Ruo's side, Qi Muqing was at the front, and Su Ruo occasionally caught a glimpse of his back. She suddenly had a feeling that he was very lonely, but that feeling would disappear when he turned around and looked at her.

After spending a day and a night walking out of the mountain, they continued on their journey to An Prefecture.

Other than taking a break, Su Ruo and Qi Muqing basically didn't have any interactions, but Qi Jingluo gradually became closer.

Qi Jingluo had to admit that she was experienced and knowledgeable. He told her many funny stories that she had never heard of before.

Su Xiaoyi watched as Qi Jingluo and Su Ruo became closer. He would occasionally make small changes and ask Su Ruo some questions about medical knowledge.

Su Ruo naturally wouldn't ignore his question. Seeing Su Ruo teaching him without distractions, he smiled happily.

However, how could his little thoughts escape Su Ruo's eyes? She just didn't want to point it out. Also, if he could learn it, she would be willing to teach him.

When they reached the town, they changed into civilian clothes to avoid drawing attention to themselves.

They did not stop at the inn in the town, but left the town and rested in the nearby woods.

The Steel Cavalry had been very careful along the way, and Su Ruo naturally knew what they were doing on the dike, not only because of Qi Jingluo but also because of her.

"Miss Su, you're so smart that you guessed my identity, that I was assassinated. Don't you want to know what happened to me?"

Hearing Qi Jingluo's words, Su Ruo opened her eyes and adjusted her sleeves. "I have no interest in knowing that the struggle between you and the royal family has nothing to do with me."

"But if you go to the palace and solve a case, I'm afraid the case will be even worse." Qi Jingluo said.

"Oh." Su Ruo replied coldly.

"Brother Fourteenth, come over here and have a chat."

Qi Jingluo shrugged. He probably wanted him to go back to the capital first.

After Qi Jingluo left, Suo Ruo wanted to continue taking a nap, but she was helpless.

It seemed like the sky really wasn't going to let her rest. She stood up and walked towards the nearby woods in search of a quiet place.

They had only taken a few steps when they heard Qi Muqing's voice. "There's a fork in the road ahead. There's a road leading to the capital. You should go back and report." Whether or not you have found what royal father wants, you should at least let him know that you are safe and sound. "

Qi Jingluo laughed, "Seventh Brother, you are so heartless. Aren't you afraid that Third Brother and Fifth Brother will catch me if you chase me away like this?"

"As far as I know, 19th brother's men are already waiting for you at the border. With 19th brother's men there, what are you afraid of?" "No matter how brave Third Brother and Fifth Brother are, they wouldn't dare to really anger 19th Brother."

"Seventh Brother, are you not curious about what Father asked me to look for? Maybe it really is the hereditary Imperial Jade Seal that third brother and fifth brother thought it was. " Qi Jingluo's tone was still joking, but it also sounded like a question.

Well, she seemed to have heard something she shouldn't have. Su Ruo lifted her feet. She didn't know if she should walk over or not turn around and head back.

"What are you looking for? I'm not interested in it at all." I only know that the both of us will be in even greater danger. Not long after, they will find out that I am bringing Su Ruo back to the palace. Do you think they will let Su Ruo live and enter the palace? "

"Actually, there's something strange. Why would it be you?" Qi Jingluo's tone suddenly became serious, "Why did royal father send you to find Su Ruo? Logically speaking, royal father would look for nineteenth brother. "

"Do you think royal father will let nineteenth brother be in danger?" His cold tone had a hint of looseness in it.

Suddenly, Qi Jingluo quieted down.

Su Ruo frowned. It wasn't because she was in danger, but because of Qi Muqing. It sounded like Qi Muqing was an unfavoured prince.

This made her think of that man. When she thought about it carefully, Qi Muqing really did resemble that man.

This made her repulsed Qi Muqing even more.
