After watching Qin Xiaoliu and Nangong Miao safely enter the red gates of the imperial palace, Dan Rong, Li Fan and Jing Jiu finally turned their horses around and headed back. The first time he had dealt with the princess, he had kidnapped her and chased after her. But this time, it had become a convoy. It was unknown if this was a mockery or a joke.

On the way back, Li Jun and Li Jun rode side by side, not saying a single word, and Jing Jiu Jiu followed closely behind, one thing weighing on her mind. Along the way, she kept feeling that someone was following them, and she wanted to call out to them, but seeing that they were not paying attention to her, she decided not to say anything.

It was not until they saw the carriage parked on the street that they smiled at each other. The carriage didn't look any different. The only difference was that its curtain was too thick. It was not cold at the moment so they didn't know if the people inside would suffocate to death. There just happened to be a fork in the road in front of them. The two of them seemed to have discussed it beforehand. Li Fan followed the road and didn't look back. The carriage waited until the two of them had left before the wheels began to rumble and roll, following the route of the carriage. Jing Jiu looked at the two. He originally wanted to chase after Li Fan, but with a hum, he jumped off his horse and found a teahouse by the side of the road to sit down. Her appearance was extremely beautiful, attracting the attention of many people.

All along the way, they had felt that a carriage behind them seemed to be following them on purpose. The three of them did not speak to the guards, and instead, they had been on guard the entire way. However, nothing unexpected had happened. As they got closer to the palace, the carriage stopped following them. Was it a coincidence that they were parked so brazenly by the roadside? Or was it because they did not put them in their eyes at all?

As the horse carriage drew closer, the coachman looked at the road, which had long since disappeared from sight. He turned around and asked, ”Should we chase or not?”

The curtain of the carriage revealed a small corner, from which came a soft shout, ”How did you follow? You can even throw him away like this! ” His tone was filled with anger.

At the eaves of the houses on the side of the road, a vigorous figure jumped down. His movements were very agile, and the coachman didn't even notice that someone had already jumped onto the roof of the car. The people in the carriage were stunned, the curtain was immediately lifted by the weapon, and from inside came soft cries and gasps filled with fear.

Dan Rong was out of breath as he jumped down from the carriage. He knocked on the carriage wall and said unhappily: ”Come out.”

The driver lifted the curtain, and the green screen helped her down slowly.

Dan Rong took out some silver and handed it over to the driver before helplessly asking: ”What are you guys doing?”

It turned out that ever since Qin Xiao had wanted to escort the princess back to the palace, he had urged Xue Yi to accompany them along the way. Xue Yi didn't want to cause trouble for everyone. Lu Ping tried to persuade them, if they met with any more danger on the road, they could come back and ask for reinforcements. Xue Yi and Qin Xiao were currently in a rather awkward situation. How could Xue Yi not know what she was thinking? This little girl was really unable to hold herself back at the Rich Villa and also had feelings for the Manor Lord. That was the reason why she was making such a big excuse for herself. She immediately rejected him back. Who would have thought that this little girl would force her to join the army. After changing her clothes the next day, she wanted to go by herself in case she got into trouble. She had no choice but to wade in muddy water.

”Owner, your wife is afraid that you will be in danger, so she's helping us from behind.” Even he was willing to believe in Green Screen's lies.

”Manor lord — we've troubled you.” Xue Yi pulled the green screen and gave her a glance.

”Whatever, you guys wait here. I'll go lead the horse.” There was nothing to talk about now. Although Xue Yi and Qin Xiao were at odds with each other recently, they definitely wouldn't be so insensible. It seemed that he would have to discuss Lu Ping with her when he got back.
