Chapter 1010: Let’s Abandon Prince Xuan And the Other Pawns
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the same time, an ordinary carriage drove out of the city gate outside the capital.
Behind the carriage were six guards on horses.
The carriage’s wheels broke through the moonlight, making the night even darker.
A small lantern hung on the carriage, emitting a weak warm light that attracted the insects and fireflies of the summer night.
After driving for a distance, Yun Linzhou said, “Let’s rest for a while.”
The hidden guard following beside the carriage quickly called for a halt.
Everyone reorganized themselves.
The hidden guard entered the carriage and reported the situation to Yun Linzhou.
“The scouts have sent a message. Wei Cang and the others are almost out of the capital region with Princess Yaoguang.
“I heard that Her Highness is very obedient and didn’t get into a conflict with them. Everyone is fine.
“If nothing unexpected happens, they’ll probably be able to reach the Xili Empire’s border city in half a month if they travel without stopping.”
Yun Linzhou held the cup with his long fingers and lowered his head to taste the tea. After a long while, a faint smile appeared on his face.
“Nuo’er has a good personality and can get along with anyone.”
However, the most important thing was that she was not injured.
Yun Linzhou finally felt relieved.
He and Gu Nuo’er could finally meet in the Xili Empire.
At that time, he would definitely confess everything he had hidden from her.
“By the way,” Yun Linzhou’s expression suddenly turned solemn. “Did you send the letter I asked you to secretly send to the imperial palace?”
The hidden guard lowered his head, “I did. I believe that His Majesty will be able to see it tomorrow morning.”
At this moment, a guard spurred his horse over.
The six of them were all left behind by Wei Cang to escort Prince Xuan’s family away.
However, this prince from the Xili Empire actually asked them to bring him out first.
The guard thought of Wei Cang’s order and came to ask, “Your Highness, we still have the orders to receive Prince Xuan and the others. Can we…”
Before he could finish speaking, Yun Linzhou quickly interrupted the guard.
Yun Linzhou’s slender fingers lifted the curtain, revealing an extremely handsome and elegant face.
Unfortunately, his expression could be said to be cold and his eyes were extremely dark.
“Apart from taking Princess Yaoguang away, isn’t the rest of your mission to bring me back to Xili?” he asked coldly.
The guard lowered his head and agreed.
Yun Linzhou raised his head slightly with a profound gaze. “Therefore, it doesn’t matter if Prince Xuan and the others come with us or not.
“Even if they die, it has nothing to do with us anymore. Bringing along burdens will make it easy for accidents to happen.”
As he spoke, he smiled mysteriously.
“I’m anxious to see Father and Mother and reunite with my family. Let’s abandon Prince Xuan and the other pawns.”
The guard was secretly shocked when he heard this and said in a difficult position, “But…”
“No buts.” Yun Linzhou was extremely decisive and unyielding.
His handsome eyebrows raised as cold as blades.
“When the emperor isn’t around, you guys only have to listen to my orders.”
Yun Linzhou put down the curtain and ordered coldly, “Let’s go.”
He had to reach the Xili Empire before Gu Nuo’er did.
This way, he could prepare everything before going to welcome her.
The guard hesitated again and again. Thinking that Yun Linzhou was the Empress’s eldest son, he could only obey.
The carriage drove away from the capital under the cold moonlight.
That night, Gu Yihan received a letter from Ye Siming first.
The imperial study was brightly lit.
Noble Consort Qiao had clearly cried before. At this moment, her eyes were red as she sat at the side.
She watched nervously as Gu Yihan frowned and read the letter.
She couldn’t help but ask, “How is it? Did Marquis Yongye find Nuo’er?”
Gu Yihan read the letter two to three times before replying, “He found her.”
Noble Consort Qiao was delighted. “When are they coming back?”
“They won’t be coming back for the time being. Nuo’er is going to Xili Empire to play.”
“What?!”
