"Your Highness, Commander Qin requests an audience!" A guard reported respectfully from outside the study.

In the study, Mo Xiuyao, who was originally closing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened them. There were no traces of sleepiness in his eyes as he said calmly, "Let him in."

Shortly after, Qin Feng rushed into the room with Mosi Hua, still wearing an uncontrollable expression of excitement and agitation. Mo Xiuyao was usually very lenient towards people around Ye Li, otherwise Han Mingxi would have long been dead due to his current temperamental disposition. He therefore paid no heed to Qin Feng's lack of decorum as he frowned and asked, "What’s so urgent" Qin Feng couldn’t help but be excited.

He shouted, "Your Highness! We’ve received news about the Countess!"

Mo Xiuyao was taken aback. He stared blankly at the candle in front of him without seeming to understand what Qin Feng had just said. Feeling anxious, Qin Feng repeated himself, "Your Highness, we have received news about the Countess!"

Only then did Mo Xiuyao snap back to reality. His half-lowered eyes moved slightly as he calmly asked, “Tell me clearly.” Qin Feng was puzzled by Mo Xiuyao’s lack of reaction, but Mosi Hua who stood behind him could clearly see that the tip of the王爺擱在桌上的手指正緊握著，還在微微顫抖。連忙上前一步將事情的經過說了一遍。蘇醉蝶在秦風的拷問下雖然還冇有吐露出全部的事實但是已經足以讓他們知道了不少關於譚繼之的事情，因此譚繼之在西北的所有據點自然也被納入了暗衛見識的範圍。隻是他們都冇有想到王妃竟然會落入譚繼之的手中，還一起出現在了離汝陽不遠的小鎮上，並且還成功的送出了密信給他們。

Lord was trembling. He quickly stepped forward and repeated the entire story. Su Zuodie, under Qin Feng's interrogation, although she had not yet revealed all the facts, they had learned quite a bit about Tan Jizhi. Therefore, all of Tan Jizhi’s outposts in Northwestern were now within the Dark Guard’s surveillance range. However, none of them could have imagined that the Countess would actually fall into Tan Jizhi's hands and appear together with him at a small town not far from Ruyang County, successfully sending them secret letters.

Mo Xiuyao took the prescription list where Qin Feng had written down the code in one corner. The two lines of text made up of strange symbols were ones Mo Xiuyao had seen in the archives at Qilin Mountain; however, he hadn’t taken the time to memorize them. He turned his gaze to Qin Feng who was finally calm. Although there was still a sharpness in Qin Feng’s eyes, he said, "The Countess says everything is fine and asks Your Highness not to worry."

"Fine… Not to worry…" Mo Xiuyao leaned back on the chair with his eyes closed for a long time before finally standing up. He instructed, "Issue an order: proceed immediately to pick up the Countess."

"Your Highness!" Mosi Hua stepped forward and stopped him. Looking at him disapprovingly, he said, "Your Highness, it’s fine for us subordinates to go pick up the Countess; Your Highness should remain in Ruyang County. Today is already… the fifteenth…" Qin Feng suddenly remembered that today was a full moon day when Mo Xiuyao could not move freely. He hurriedly agreed with Mosi Hua, "Commander Mo has good reason for his words. Your Highness, please allow me to go pick up the Countess!" Mosi Hua also stepped forward and said, "I am willing to go as well!"

Mo Xiuyao waved his hand and said sternly, "Enough. I know what I’m doing. Issue an order: we leave in fifteen minutes. Qin Feng, you will accompany me."

Though worried about Mo Xiuyao’s health, the good news that Ye Li was safe made him too happy to care. After a moment of hesitation, Qin Feng accepted the order and left. Outside, Zhuo Jing and others had already rushed over upon receiving the message. Upon seeing Qin Feng come out, they hurriedly approached him. Qin Feng nodded at them before quickly leaving to attend to his duties. Zhuo Jing and the others were taken aback; their eyes shone with excitement.

The joy in her heart made Lin Han's eyes turn slightly red, but he did not care at all. Her face was filled with long-awaited joy.

In the early morning, Ye Li got up very early and tidied herself up. In fact, she hadn't slept well for the entire night since Dr. Lin was taken away by Tan Jizhi and she had not heard his return. Although she only knew Tan Jizhi for a few days, it was enough to make her understand how cruel this man's heart could be, making Ye Li worry about that elderly person who saved her and her child's lives.

After sitting in the flower hall for a while, Tan Jizhi brought Shu Manlin inside. Seeing Ye Li looking somewhat tired, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Why Has Princess Consort Ding not rested well last night Are you reluctant to leave Ruyang"

Ye Li frowned and asked, "How is Dr. Lin"

Tan Jizhi was somewhat surprised as he looked up and down at Ye Li and smiled, "So, Princess Consort, are you actually worried about him Please don't tell me that you really have feelings for my father like a master-disciple relationship"

Ye Li calmly stared at him and said, "Although the time was short, Dr. Lin did teach me medical skills in fact. Even if it's a master-disciple relationship, what is wrong with it"

Tan Jizhi looked at Ye Li’s expression with some ridicule and raised his eyebrows as he smiled, "Speaking of which, Princess Consort doesn't seem like someone from the royal family. Now you can hardly protect yourself, yet you still have time to worry about a person whom you only recently met"

Ye Li coldly laughed, "Tan Official, even your twenty-year foster care can be given up without blinking an eye, indeed more fitting of someone from the royal family than me. Truly deserving as a descendant of the previous dynasty."

Tan Jizhi was hit by Ye Li's words and his face turned ugly, coldly saying, "Since you're ready, let’s set out now."

"Tan Official can do it however he wants," Ye Li said indifferently.

After leaving the inn, although there were only Ye Li, Tan Jizhi, Shu Manlin and a few servants, Ye Li keenly sensed the covert eyes following them. In these days despite being confined to the yard without going out, Ye Li had estimated that at least more than ten people hid in the deepest courtyard where she and Dr. Lin lived. Let alone other places. If the bodyguards rushed in hastily, it would be unwise in such a small yard. Standing outside the inn, Ye Li looked back at the deserted old inn but still did not see Dr. Lin’s figure. Tan Jizhi hadn't obtained what he wanted yet, so he shouldn’t kill Dr. Lin. This was all that Ye Li could hope for.

Indeed, there were often groups of soldiers from Mo Family passing through the small town, walking side by side in pairs as if patrolling rather than searching for someone. Tan Jizhi naturally noticed this situation and frowned, waving his hand to have Shu Manlin assist Ye Li onto a carriage parked at the roadside. Soon, the slow-moving carriage started heading towards outside of the town.

Shu Manlin sat opposite Ye Li with an unfriendly gaze staring at her intently. Although Shu Manlin often came to the little courtyard to provoke Ye Li before, Dr. Lin was usually there as well. This was their first time being alone together.

Ye Li calmly looked at the beautiful lady across from her and smiled faintly. Shu Manlin slightly raised her eyebrows with a disdainful hum and stared at Ye Li saying, "Do you know who I am"

Ye Li lowered her eyes, not interested in knowing, "If Miss Lin doesn't even know herself, how could I possibly know"

Shu Manlin arrogantly glanced sideways at her and said, "You don’t need to pretend. I know you guessed my identity a long time ago. Princess Consort Ding, when we were in Nanzhao, you used the identity of Xu Qingchen’s fiancée to deceive both me and that foolish Anxi princess. Do you think I won't guard against you"

Ye Li raised her eyes and looked at her with a smile on her face, "So… what does Holy Maiden instruct" Compared to the young but capable Princess Anxi who governed well, Ye Li really couldn’t see how Shu Manlin had any right to call anyone foolish. Truly the real fools always think others are foolish

“You know what I want to say. If you’re sensible, you’ll obediently keep your mouth shut. Otherwise don't blame me for being rude!” Shu Manlin sternly threatened.

Ye Li raised her eyebrows and of course understood what she was talking about. So it’s still糾纏大哥的事情嗎？不過，舒曼琳居然會怕譚繼之這一點倒是讓葉璃有些意外。畢竟在任何人眼裡，譚繼之就算有著前朝皇室後裔的身份，但是現在也不過是一個皇帝跟前的禦前行走罷了。要錢冇錢，

Money when there's no power, and power when there's no people. However, Shumanlin is the Holy Maiden of Southern Frontier, with status and authority almost on par with the Crown Princess, and she also has the covert support from the King of Nanzhao and Mo Jingli. Even if they conspire against her, Tan Jizhi should have been giving in to Shumanlin. It seems that he indeed underestimated Tan Jizhi because of his performance at the imperial mausoleum earlier.

Tilting her head slightly, Ye Li smiled and said, "The Holy Maiden must know that I am not someone who likes to talk about others' affairs."

Shumanlin sneered and said, "It's best if you don't provoke me. Otherwise, this lady has many ways to make you shut up."

Quietly looking at Shumanlin, Ye Li's lips curled into a cold smile. "Holy Maiden... Your words are very unpleasant for this concubine... Now, dare you kill me No, do you dare harm me" Shumanlin's pretty face darkened. Indeed, Tan Jizhi had warned her repeatedly not to lay a finger on Ye Li. Although she was unhappy about it,

she wasn't someone who couldn't see the bigger picture. The former dynasty’s treasures were not obtained, and thus made the importance of Queen Consort Ding even more crucial. They could neither harm nor offend Ye Li; instead, they had to protect her because if they managed to safely escort her out of Mo Family Army's jurisdiction, it would mean they had two cards that could be used against Mo Xiuyao at any time.

"Ye Li, you shouldn't be too proud! One day..." Shumanlin gritted her teeth and said softly. The moment she could get rid of the leverage Ye Li provided, she could do whatever she wanted to this woman. Thinking back to last year when Ye Li caused such a commotion in Nanzhao and destroyed their plans at Suixue Pass, Shumanlin couldn't help but want to tear her skin off and strip her bones bare. Not to mention that she was also Xu Qingchen's cousin.

Ye Li leaned on her hand and reminded her casually, "Holy Maiden, you should consider the present situation first No one knows what will happen in the future Of course, if it doesn't matter to you, I don’t mind occasionally being a gossip and chatting with Minister Tan about the things that happened between Nanzhao’s Holy Maiden and Qingchen. There's definitely something worth talking about." Shumanlin turned pale with anger and raised her hand as though she wanted to slap Ye Li, but Ye Li was faster. "Oh!"

Outside the carriage, Tan Jizhi, who was riding a horse, quickly approached and pulled up the curtain on the side of the carriage. He saw Shumanlin raising her hands and frowned unhappily. "Lin'er, what are you doing I told you that you cannot be disrespectful to the Queen Consort." Shumanlin angrily put down her hand and shot Ye Li a glare while muttering under her breath, "I know." Tan Jizhi looked at them uneasily and warned, "We’re about to leave town; don't cause trouble." Then he let go of the curtain. Smiling, Ye Li raised an eyebrow at Shumanlin who clenched her teeth in anger, "Ye Li, you wait!"

The carriage was stopped outside a small town. Fortunately, it wasn’t members of the Mo Family Army but ordinary officials blocking them which made Tan Jizhi heave a sigh of relief.

"Who’s inside the carriage Get out!" The official who set up the checkpoint barked.

Tan Jizhi approached with his face altered to look like an honest scholar and said, "Sir… What's going on" The official knocked on the door of the carriage and replied, "We’re instructed by our superiors to search for spies entering the Northwest. We’ll check everyone who is a stranger here—make them all get out!" Tan Jizhi looked troubled as he said, "Please forgive us, sir. My wife is seven months pregnant; it’s really inconvenient for her to get off. Please understand…" He discreetly slipped two silver coins into the official's hand.

The officials took the bribe and glanced at each other before saying, "You don’t have to get out if you don’t want to, but please roll up your curtain." With that said, they roughly pulled back the curtains regardless of Tan Jizhi’s consent. Two young women were sitting inside the carriage; one had a hairstyle typical of a pregnant woman and was visibly pregnant. The other beautiful blue-clothed lady smiled at them slightly.

The official was stunned and murmured to himself, "What good fortune! Such a beautiful maiden in such a desolate place…"

Tan Jizhi carefully said with a smile, "Sir, can I go now"

The official reluctantly looked inside again before letting down the curtain and waving them off. “You may leave.”

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!" Tan Jizhi exclaimed joyfully as he quickly waved at the driver to proceed out of town.

Only when the carriage was out of sight did the officials’ arrogant expressions fade away. One official asked, "How is it Did you see clearly" The official who had pulled up the curtain said with a frown, "It’s the Queen Consort. She said that they are many and there are people from Nanzhao. We were instructed to maintain calm."

"Damn! Watching her pass right in front of us…" A man muttered softly beside him.

A companion patted him on the shoulder and said, "Since he's under our surveillance, does he think he can take the duchess away from Northwest This place isn’t a good spot for a fight. The duchess is pregnant and unable to move around easily. That woman in the carriage isn't an easy target either; what if she hurts the duchess"

After leaving the small town, Tan Jizhi felt uneasy. He ordered his men to speed up and head toward Feihong Pass without stopping. Originally, according to his plan, there shouldn’t have been any issues. He had been hiding between Dachu and Southern Zhaos for nearly a decade but didn’t draw attention from the likes of Duke Ding’s Manor. Furthermore, he did not enter Northwest through Feihong Pass, so he should not have drawn Mo Xiuyao’s notice either. However, the patrol force that suddenly appeared in town made him feel like something was slipping out of his control. Just as he couldn’t make any sense of this situation, a thought struck him and he couldn’t help but draw in a sharp breath—may she not be so stupid to tell everything about him. A trace of killing intent flashed across his eyes; it shouldn’t… That woman knew that once she said anything, the only outcome was death. Mo Xiuyao would definitely carve her up with a thousand knives and ten thousand blades.

"Jizhi, can we rest for a bit I’m tired…" Shu Manlin pulled up the curtain of the carriage, looking quite uncomfortable as she said this. She had been pampered since childhood; how could she withstand the jolting on the road so far Plus, Ye Li’s sarcastic and mocking remarks made her snap.

Tan Jizhi glanced at her and noticed that she looked truly terrible. He also remembered that Ye Li was pregnant and couldn’t be too shaken up. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and said, "Rest for half an hour."

Shu Manlin cheerfully called out how wonderful Tan Jizhi was before getting off the carriage to stretch her limbs. Tan Jizhi raised his brow and asked Ye Li in the carriage, "Your Excellency, would you like to step down and walk around" Ye Li’s face was pale, looking more fatigued from lack of sleep. She shook her head and said, "Since we’ve stopped, I’ll nap for a while; don’t disturb me." Tan Jizhi didn’t mind; naturally, he hoped that less happened to Ye Li. Before he could say anything else, Shu Manlin had already pulled him over toward the foot of a tree. “Jizhi, let’s sit here and rest for a bit; it’s so hot! I’m exhausted…” Tan Jizhi clearly had patience with her as he softly said, "Since this is the case, you can sleep next to me."

"Jizhi is best."

In the afternoon forest, horses quietly grazed. Under a tree, a beautiful couple rested together, creating a tranquil and serene scene.

When Tan Jizhi realized something was amiss, he raised his head abruptly to see the forest unnaturally quiet. A dark-robed man had appeared not far away from them under a tree at some point. His black hair flowed like clouds; silver dragons on his robe shimmered in the slanting sunlight with an opulent glow. Though thin and graceful-looking, the mask he wore partially covered one side of his face, failing to hide its sickly pallor. Nevertheless, even standing still and looking slightly upward toward them, he exuded a regal air that made others feel inferior by comparison. At present, however, it was the way everyone in the forest, including the guards on watch nearby, seemed completely unaware of the man that chilled Tan Jizhi to his core; as if the oppressive pressure he felt emanated solely from his own imagination.

"Mo Xiuyao!" Tan Jizhi growled, ignoring the heavy pressure and leaping toward the carriage in the distance without hesitation.

The guards on one side only then noticed an unfamiliar man in the forest and quickly drew their weapons to face him.

Under the tree, the dark-robed man frowned slightly. Clearly displeased with the situation before him, he stepped forward, gliding past the guards like a cloud, his wide sleeves flaring as they left behind a trail of bloodstains in their wake. He headed toward the carriage similarly. Though standing farther from Tan Jizhi and moving slower than him, he arrived no later than the latter when the former reached for the curtain of the carriage. A flash of silver light sent a cold gleam slicing toward the hand reaching out to the carriage.

Tan Jizhi gritted his teeth, "Mo Xiuyao!"

In this moment, he didn’t have time to think about why Mo Xiuyao was here; the only thing on his mind was defeating the man before him. Yet how incredibly difficult it was! Mo Xiuyao was known as one of the four greatest martial artists in the world, and today, under King Muge’s reign, he was indeed Dachu’s undisputed number-one martial artist.

His attack failed, and Tan Jizhi swiftly retreated with a fierce cry, "Loose arrows!"

The forest remained silent; there were no expected sharp whistling sounds of flying arrows. Tan Jizhi’s expression changed slightly as he stared intently at the dark-robed man.

But Mo Xiuyao didn’t even look at him, turning around to pull back the curtain of the carriage behind him and smiling gently at the woman inside, "Ah Li, I’ve come to take you home."
