Right now, Yuchi Xuan was right next to her. If her identity was seen through in front of Yuchi Xuan, she would no longer have the face to face Yuchi Xuan ever again.

"Fifth brother, long time no see. How have you been?"

Yuchi Xuan began greeting Yuchi Chen from three meters away. Yuchi Chen only nodded her head in response, but her footsteps did not slow down.

As Yuchi Chen passed by them, Yun Ruo Lu stealthily raised her head and glanced at Yuchi Chen. It had been a long time since she had last seen him; he was still as haughty and domineering as ever. However, it was not hard to see a trace of exhaustion in his eyes.

"Hmph, you must be tired of living outside!"

Yun Ruo mocked in her heart. In short, she had no good impression of Yuchi Chen. Especially when she thought of the humiliation she had suffered in the Prince's Mansion, she could not help but wish that she could pounce on Yuchi Chen and give him a good beating to quell the hatred in her heart.

Seeing that Yuchi Chen was ignoring him, Yuchi Xuan did not get angry. Instead, he turned his head to look at Yun Ruo, only to find her looking at him with a twisted expression, as if she had a deep grudge. He could not help but ask, "What's wrong?" Let's go! "

Only now did Yun Ruo Lu realize that she had lost control of herself. She didn't think any further and continued to follow behind Yuchi Xuan.

Not long after he left, Yun Ruo saw a familiar yet surprising figure. It was Yun Wei!

Yun Wei was dressed in a court robe, which made him look extremely imposing. Compared to when he was in Slave Valley, he was like a couple of men.

Judging from Yun Wei's hurried expression, he must have just returned from a visit with the Emperor.

Yun Wei saw Yuchi Xuan from afar and hurried over to pay his respects. It was all because of Yuchi Xuan that he was here today.

"We pay our respects to the Third Marquis!"

"Prime Minister Yun, no need to be so courteous. Have you seen the emperor just now?"

Yuchi Xuan didn't bother with pleasantries. He spoke frankly without hiding anything.

Yunwei and Yuchi Xuan made eye contact. Yunwei immediately bowed and replied, "I've already met them. Today, I have to thank the prince for his love. One day, I'll come to the estate and pay my respects to him."

Yun Ruo Man had been hiding behind Yuchi Xuan the entire time. Actually, Yun Wei had already recognized her from the time they were in Slave Valley. However, she didn't want to meet with him directly.

Yunqi glanced at Yunruo who was behind Yuchi Xuan. How could he not understand Yunruo's current situation? Even though he knew her identity, he didn't reveal it. To him, it was a hundred times more beneficial than staying by Yuchi Xuan's side.

Yuchi Xuan and Yun Wei exchanged a few pleasantries before saying their goodbyes. Yun Ruo knew from their conversation that Yun Wei had only returned to the capital yesterday, although he had already been reinstated for around ten days.

Since Yun Wei was fine, she no longer needed to worry about the safety of the Yun Family.

After a while, a eunuch hurried over to report that it was a summons from the Emperor.

Yuchi Xuan left Yun Ruo Lu to continue wandering around the palace by herself before leaving with the eunuch.

Yun Ruo Lu wandered around the palace by herself. It was a pity that she was currently disguised as a man and couldn't enter the imperial harem. Otherwise, she could have gone to find Xiang Qing.

When Yun Ruo Lu was tired of walking, she stopped by a pool to rest. This pool was very big, it looked like a lake. Willows were planted around the pool, and there were artificial mountains a few steps away.

At the top of the pool, there was a winding, open-air corridor. At the end of the corridor was a pavilion with a lot of goldfish in the water. The fragmented lotus leaves were adorned and looked exceptionally beautiful.

Unintentionally, Yun Ruo saw a white figure within the pavilion. She thought to herself that who could walk freely in the palace without wearing a court uniform?

With curiosity, Yun Ruo walked towards the pavilion.

When she walked closer, she discovered that the white figure was actually sitting inside the pavilion and fishing.

Yun Ruo Lu walked up to him with light steps. When she was only three steps away from him, she still attracted his attention.

This time, Yun Ruo Lu was exceptionally shocked, because this person was Yuchi Yan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time!

Yuchi Yan seemed to have lost some weight, but he was still as handsome and graceful as before.

When Yun Ruo Lu saw Yuchi Yan, she didn't know what to say. Yuchi Yan was also staring at her with a sharp gaze, as if he could see through her.

Actually, if you carefully calculated it, Yuchi Yan should have been her first bosom friend after coming to this world.

Thus, at this moment, Yun Ruo Lu was still hesitating whether she should reveal her identity.

"You …"

Yuchi Yuyan let out a puzzled cry. His gaze was very complicated, causing Yun Ruo Lu to feel a little nervous.

Yun Ruo Lu was still thinking of how to greet him. If she pretended not to know him, it was obvious that she did not know his identity. In addition to his casual clothes, there was no need for her to say anything about paying respects to the prince.

Just as Yun Ruo Lu was hesitating on what to say, Yuchi Yan suddenly asked, "How did you get dressed up like this?"

This sentence caused Yun Ruo Lu to be so shocked that her eyes widened, speechless. Could it be that he had already recognized her? That didn't make sense. How could Yuchi Yanghong have recognized her?

"You …"

This time, it was Yun Ruo Lu who finally realized what was going on. She thought to herself that he wasn't that powerful.

Yuchi Yan stared at Yun Ruo Lu's ears for a few seconds, then laughed out loud: "Ha, ha, ha, fifth sister, you are so interesting. I didn't expect that fifth brother's entire country wanted you, but here you are pretending to be a guard. If fifth brother saw it, would he faint from anger? "

Yun Ruo was speechless. She now knew that her identity had been completely exposed.

Only, she didn't understand how Yuchi Yan had managed to recognize her.

"This is the Imperial Palace, don't shout so loudly!"

Yun Ruo Man glared unhappily at Yuchi Yan. She then asked curiously, "How did you know it was me?"

Yuchi Yan retracted the smile on his face, rubbing his chin and saying seriously, "First of all, you have ear holes, which means you are a woman. Second, there's a little red mole next to the hole on your left, so I recognized you. "

Yun Ruo Man hadn't expected that Yuchi Yan would observe her so carefully. Yun Wei probably recognised her not only because she looked familiar, but also because of this reason.

As for why Yuchi Chen did not recognize her, it was probably because Yuchi Chen had never looked at her directly.

Since Yun Ruo Lu had already been seen through, she no longer pretended to be so. Disguising herself in front of her acquaintances was an extremely awkward thing to do.

"Seventh Brother, I hope you don't tell anyone about this matter. I don't want to go back to the Prince's Mansion."

Yuchi Yan only recognized Yun Ruo Lu's identity, but he didn't know that she was currently serving at the Third Marquis' Mansion. Thus, when he heard the two words' Mansion ', he naturally classified it as the Fifth Marquis' Mansion.

"Why?"

In their minds, it was already unusual for a woman to run away from a prince's mansion with her husband as her husband.

"Don't ask me that much. Just pretend you never saw me before, and don't tell Yuchi Chen that I'm still in the capital."

Yun Ruo bluntly mentioned Yuchi Chen's name, and Yuchi Yan was silent for a while, before nodding in agreement.

"The Yun Family is fine now, why don't you go back?"

It was hard for him to imagine a woman pretending to be a man just to wander the world by herself. How much courage and wisdom did she need to accomplish that?

"Going back to the Yun Family is simply walking into a trap. I'm fine now, you don't have to worry."

In front of Yuchi Yan, Yun Ruo could do whatever she wanted without worrying too much about it.

"Alright, your sister is at my place. Do you want to go and see her?"

Yuchi Yan lazily put away his fishing rod, saying calmly.

Yun Ruo Man hadn't expected that the missing Yun Ruo Yao would be at Yuchi Yan's place. It was truly surprising.

"Why is my sister at your place? How is she now?

Yun Ruo Lu asked excitedly, now that she knew where Yun Ruo Yao was, how could she calm down.

Yuchi Yan gestured for Yun Ruo Lu to sit down, then poured her another cup of tea.

If anyone else were to see this, their eyeballs would have fallen out of their sockets. His Royal Highness was simply defying the heavens by pouring tea for a guard.

Yun Ruo calmed herself down and said, "I can't stay here any longer, make it short."

If Yuchi Xuan came back and saw her with Yuchi Yanghong, it would be strange if they didn't get involved.

Yuchi Yan nodded, but continued to speak unhurriedly, "Ever since the incident with the Yun Family, I found out that you were under house arrest, so I went over to the Yun Family to take a look. If your sister asked me to take her away, maybe she guessed that fifth brother would use her to threaten you. "

So that's how it was. Yun Ruo Lu suddenly realized something, and looked gratefully at Yuchi Yan. She hadn't expected that he would actually help her in such a dangerous situation.

"I planned to tell you about this, but fifth brother was wary of me so I never found an opportunity. Later on, he found out that you left the manor."

"Well, how is my sister? Is she well? "

After understanding the gist of it, Yun Ruo Lu relaxed.

"She's fine, she's just very worried about you and the prime minister. Right now, the Yun family is fine, I plan to bring her back to the Yun family in a few days."

Yun Ruo knew that Yuchi Yan also had her own difficulties. If Yuchi Chen knew that Yun Ruo Yao was hiding at his place, then their brotherly relationship would be completely destroyed.

"It's been hard on you!"

Yun Ruo Lu did not know what to say in gratitude. Everything that Yuchi Yan had done was worth it for her to treat him as a friend!

"Sister-in-law, what plans do you have for the future?" You're just going to keep hiding like this? "

Yun Ruo You shook her head. She didn't know what was going on. Although she couldn't continue like this, she could only take one step at a time.

"I am now the Third Marquis' personal bodyguard, so it won't be that easy for me to escape."

When Yun Ruo's words came out, Yuchi Yan spat out all the tea in his mouth with a 'puu' and asked in surprise, "Wh … What, you're with third brother right now … When... Serving? "
