The dishes on the table have been cleared. In their place were a purse and an envelope.

She threw back the blanket and jumped out of bed. Without bothering to put on her shoes and socks, she quickly opened the door and ran out.

Lo Pingsha had been guarding the door. When he saw Yu Niaoniao appear, he immediately reached out to stop her.

!!

“Princess Consort, please stay.”

Yu Niaoniao asked anxiously, “Where’s His Highness?”

Lo Pingsha answered truthfully, “At dawn today, His Highness left the courier station with his men. According to their speed, they should be reaching Min Mountain soon.”

Yu Niaoniao did not know where Min Mountain was. She only wanted to catch up to Duke Lang as soon as possible.

But Lo Pingsha refused to let her go.

“Before His Highness left, he instructed that you can’t follow him to Liaodong County.”

Yu Niaoniao was anxious. “Liaodong County is very dangerous. I can’t let Duke Lang take the risk alone!”

Lo Pingsha asked calmly, “Even if you follow, what’s the use?”

Yu Niaoniao was speechless.

Although she was a transmigrator, she did not have a spatial superpower or a system cheat. At the end of the day, she was still an ordinary person.

Compared to the ancient people, she only had more modern knowledge.

Even if she followed him to Liaodong County, she would not be able to help Duke Lang. She might even become a burden to him.

Lo Pingsha said, “His Highness has been through a lot. He’s the strongest person I’ve ever met. Someone like him wouldn’t die so easily in Liaodong County. We should trust him.”

Yu Niaoniao said nothing else.

She went back into the house, dazed.

The pouch and envelope still lay quietly on the table.

Yu Niaoniao reached out and picked up the envelope. She poured out a travel pass and two pieces of paper.

In the letter, Xiao Juan said that if he did not return safely this time, he would let Yu Niaoniao return to the Imperial Capital with a divorce letter. This way, she could draw a clear line with him and not be avenged by his enemies.

Yu Niaoniao looked at the thin divorce document and fell silent for a long time.

Back then, when the manor was on fire, Madam Xie risked her life to push her out of the sea of fire.

And there was nothing she could do.

She could not save Madam Xie, her stepfather, or more than ten people in the Feng family.

Even after so many years, she still hated her helpless self every time she thought about it.

She’d regretted it countless times.

Why had she run away back then?

What was the point of her surviving alone?

Yu Niaoniao’s fingers trembled as she pinched the divorce book.

In the next moment, she tore the divorce letter into pieces.

She was not the helpless little girl she had been.

She was old enough to protect those around her.

Yu Niaoniao put the travel pass and purse into her arms and shouted for Dang Gui.

Dang Gui ran in.

“What can I do for you, Miss?”

Yu Niaoniao looked determined. “Pack your luggage. We’re going to Liaodong County.”

Dang Gui hesitated. “But Duke Lang said before he left that he wouldn’t let you go…”

Yu Niaoniao interrupted her.

“Do as I say. I’ll get you a deluxe hot pot later. You can eat whatever you want with it.”

Dang Gui quickly replied, “Alright!”

She immediately got to work, quickly packing her luggage.

Yu Niaoniao had changed into a simple silk dress. She did not put on any makeup or gold foil jewelry. She only had two small silk flowers in her bun. She was dressed no differently from an ordinary lady.

Lo Pingsha had been guarding the door. His forehead twitched when he saw Yu Niaoniao and Dang Gui walking out with bags.

He had to remind her again.

“Princess, you can’t leave the courier station for the time being.”

Yu Niaoniao threw the bag over her shoulder and defended herself.

“My legs are on my body. I can go wherever I want. You can trap me for a while, but not forever. ‘I’ll definitely sneak out as soon as I get the chance. Then you won’t even be able to find me. If I’m in danger outside, you won’t be able to save me in time.”

“Instead of that, you might as well come with us. This way at least I’m still under your nose. If there is danger, you could still protect me in time. Little Lo, don’t you think so?”

Lo Pingsha could not argue with her and asked helplessly.

“Why do you have to go to Liaodong County? You’re just a weak woman. You won’t be of much help there. You might as well stay here and wait for His Highness to return.”

Yu Niaoniao asked.

“Why do you think Duke Lang will definitely come back? What if he doesn’t?”

...

Lo Pingsha said, “Your Highness is skilled and resourceful. He’ll definitely be back.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “No matter how powerful he is, he’s still made of flesh and blood. How can he compare to a hundred thousand soldiers?!”

Lo Pingsha was speechless.

Yu Niaoniao said, “I don’t know if I can help him, but I have to try, right? Think about it. If you were in danger, wouldn’t you want someone to back you up?”

Lo Pingsha was silent for a moment, his heart wavering.

“What does the Princess plan to do?”

Yu Niaoniao placed her hand to her mouth and whispered.

“Duke Lang and Prince Min have special identities. No matter where they go, there will be people watching them at all times. But we’re different. No one would care about the three of us. This was our chance.”

“We can pretend to be commoners and sneak into Liaodong County to secretly investigate what kind of conspiracy is hidden in it. As soon as we find out the truth, we will immediately ask the Imperial Court for help. So what if they had a hundred thousand troops? As long as the Imperial Court sends out an army, they will definitely be defeated!”

Lo Pingsha pondered for a moment. In the end, he was convinced.

“I can accompany you to Liaodong County, but you have to promise me that you won’t act alone, let alone risk your life.”

...

Yu Niaoniao nodded vigorously. “No problem!”

Lo Pingsha said, “I’m going back to change and pack. Wait for me.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then we’ll wait for you downstairs.”

“Okay.”

Yu Niaoniao brought Dang Gui down to the first floor.

They found the official at the courier station and bought a large bag of dry food. At the same time, they filled their water bags for the journey.

At this moment, Lu Yao came out with his little attendant.

When Lu Yao saw Dang Gui, he turned around and walked to her. He greeted her elegantly.

“Good morning, Miss Dang Gui.”

Dang Gui felt that she did not know him very well. She did not expect him to greet her. She did not know how to respond, but it would be rude not to.

In the end, she could only reply dryly.

“Good morning, Young Master Lu.”

Lu Yao looked at the bags they were holding and asked curiously, “Where are you going?”

Dang Gui first looked at Yu Niaoniao. Seeing that she had no intention of stopping her, she replied softly.

“We’re going to Liaodong County.”

Lu Yao raised his eyebrows. “What a coincidence. We’re going to Liaodong County too.”
