Yuchi Chen and his men soon returned to the capital. This trip to Mongolia was a month earlier than they had expected.

After returning to the palace, Yuchi Chen settled down in the middle of the fragrant snow and immediately headed to the palace, offering the immortal herbs to the emperor.

Naturally, Yun Ruo Lu brought Jin Se back to Plum Garden to rest. Although the journey was very relaxing and pleasant, after all, the ship had stopped for a few days, and her body would still feel exhausted.

The fragrant snow was a restless person. Yuchi Chen had just settled her in the Prince's Mansion, and it only took her two hours to familiarize herself with it.

On the morning of the second day, Yun Ruo Lu was still basking in the sunlight in the courtyard when the fragrant snow hastily rushed over to find her.

"So this is where you are. This is a really good place!"

As soon as the sweet snow reached the gate and saw the plum blossoms filling the garden, she couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing that the sweet snow had come, Yun Ruo Lu was not surprised, nor was she as alert as Liu Yan Han. She replied very casually: "Didn't you go look for your highness? "How can you have the free time to come here and play?"

Yun Ruo Man's tone was neither unfamiliar nor intimate, but it was just right and proper, giving off a very natural feeling.

"Hai, I disappeared without a trace yesterday. This Prince's Mansion is so boring, why don't we go play on the streets. "

The fragrant snow sat down on a stone bench in the courtyard, sighing emotionally. How could she not know that Yuchi Chen was purposely avoiding her.

Seeing that Yun Ruo Lu didn't say anything, Kui Xue continued: "I only know you here, if you don't accompany me, I'll go out on the streets and play by myself."

The fragrant snow spoke like a child. Actually, she didn't only know Yun Ruo and Liu Yan Han. It was just that she didn't like Liu Yan Han and felt that Liu Yan Han's eyes were always full of scheming.

"Empress, why don't we accompany the princess to play?"

Seeing that the sweet snow was about to leave, Jinsi who was at the side couldn't hold it in any longer, she pulled on Yun Ruo's sleeve and looked at her pitifully.

Yun Ruo knocked her forehead and thought to herself, "Since the princess is interested, I'll accompany her for a walk."

Yuchi Chen wasn't restricting her freedom, so she could now enter and exit the manor as she liked.

"That's great! We'll go now! "

Hearing that Yun Ruo Lu agreed, Kui Xue immediately put on a cheerful look, pulled Yun Ruo Lu and walked towards the main entrance of the mansion.

Although the capital was very familiar with this place, Yun Ruo Lu felt as if she hadn't been here for a long time. She felt a faint sense of unfamiliarity.

For the first time, the fragrant snow roamed the capital, but she found everything strange. Every stall would have to stay in front of it for a while, and only after buying some things would she be willing to leave.

However, her Mongol attire attracted the attention of many people.

"The capital is bustling with activity, no wonder so many people have wild ambitions!"

As she ate the sweet gourd, she couldn't help but sigh.

Yun Ruo Lu did not care about what she said and just looked around casually. No matter how bustling this place was, if the people he loved weren't together, then it would still be an empty city without a single trace of nostalgia.

When the two of them got tired of playing, they found a tea house to rest.

Because he hadn't changed into a man's outfit, the teahouse had more people at the moment. Thus, Yun Ruo Lu chose a good room to avoid being harassed by random people.

Yun Ruo Lu sat by the window and looked out onto the street, while Kuai Xue was there fiddling with some of the toys she just collected, which included some clay figurines, trinkets, etc.

Only Jin Se, who has the temperament of a child, can 'talk about the heavens and the earth' with her and talk endlessly.

About the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the teahouse's main hall suddenly became noisy, and there were even sounds of fighting.

Yun Ruo Lu walked to the door and watched for a while, and saw four men dressed in Chinese chasing after a man dressed in black. They had come from the street into the teahouse.

Due to the fight between these few people, everyone in the hall immediately moved to the side or escaped from the teahouse. This made the lively teahouse much quieter.

Although she didn't know what had happened, Yun Ruo Lu didn't intend to meddle in this matter.

While she was standing upstairs watching a good show, she didn't know when, but she had already run downstairs. Furthermore, she had rushed into the crowd as if she wanted to meddle in other people's business.

Yun Ruo knew that although her riding skills were not bad, her martial arts were quite average. With her skill, it was impossible for her to even be a match for those few people.

Just as Yun Ruo Lu was about to go and help, Mo Qianxue said a few words to the few men in strange clothing. She was probably speaking in another country's language, so Yun Ruo Lu did not understand what she meant.

Those few people looked at each other and also said some incomprehensible things, and after saying a few more words to those few people, those few people actually let go just like that, turned around and left.

After those people left, only then did Kui Xue pick up the injured black clothed man and walk up the stairs.

It could be seen that the black-robed man was someone from the Yuchi Kingdom. Only, he had some wounds on his body, which was why his face didn't look too good.

Yun Ruo Lu looked at Qiang Xue's actions in confusion. This was the first time she came to the Central Plains, so it was impossible for her to know anyone. So why would she go and save this black clothed man?

Qiang Xue brought the black clothed man to their room just now, then said to Yun Ruo Lu: "Big sister Yun, do you have any medicine to heal your wounds?"

After a period of time together, the sweet snow also learned that Yun Ruo You know a bit of medicine, and often carry medicine with you.

Yun Ruo Lu did not ask any further questions, but handed a small bottle to Qiang Xue.

After the black-clothed man swallowed the medicine, he stood up and cupped his hands towards Yun Ruo You and Qiang Xue: "Thank you ladies for saving me! I still have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first. This young lady's great kindness, I will repay it in the future! "

After the black clothed man spoke and was about to leave, Mo Qianxue stopped him and asked, "You still haven't told me who you are? Why were you being chased by those people? "

"This …"

The black clothed person seemed to hesitate, as if there was something hard to say. After a moment of silence, he said, "Actually, telling the lady is not impossible, but I'm just worried that it will bring trouble to the girl."

"Speak!" "I'm not afraid of trouble!"

Yun Ruo Lu had once heard her complain. She didn't like the way the people of the Central Plains spoke, so she was hesitating. Moreover, she liked to go around in circles, making people wonder what they were talking about.

"Actually, I am a guard from the third prince's residence. Because I was working for my master, I was targeted by those people just now. That's why …"

Upon hearing the two words "Third Marquis Residence", Yun Ruo's spirits were immediately raised. Just now, she had felt that this person was somewhat familiar. She hadn't imagined that he was someone from Yuchi Xuan's estate.

"What are you doing for the Third Marquis?"

Yun Ruo Lu asked excitedly. It had been a long time since she saw any movement from Yuchi Xuan. To suddenly see a guard from his residence fighting with someone in the streets naturally piqued her curiosity.

Perhaps it was because her tone was too agitated, but the guard carefully sized her up.

"I am unable to tell you this. Please forgive me!"

As long as ordinary people heard that it was the Shangguan Family, they wouldn't continue to inquire about it, in case they got into trouble. On the other hand, Yun Ruo Man's actions were the exact opposite; how could she not arouse suspicion?

When Yun Ruo Lu realized that she had lost her composure, she did not pursue the matter and let the man in black leave.

After the black clothed man left, Yun Ruo Lu then asked Qiang Xue: "What did you say to the men from the other races? You two know each other? "

Kui Xue shook her head, and said with certainty: "I don't know them, but from the way they dressed, I knew they were men from the Dolon tribe. The Dolon tribe is another powerful tribe next to Mongolia. My mother is the Duolun clan's princess, so those people will naturally give me face. "

"So that's how it is …"

Hearing her explanation, Yun Ruo Lu didn't suspect anymore, because she believed that she didn't need to tell her lies.

"It's just that, I wonder why the Dolon tribe's people would appear in the Central Plains. How strange …"

"Don't think about it anymore. It's getting late, let's go back."

Although Yun Ruo Lu pretended that she didn't care on the surface, she knew that this matter wasn't simple and wanted to investigate it thoroughly.

When the three of them returned to the manor, the steward of the manor was waiting at the entrance. When he saw Yun Ruo coming back, he immediately came up to her excitedly and bowed, saying, "Aiyo, esteemed wangfei, princess, you've finally returned. This old servant has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Butler Wang, did something happen?"

Yun Ruo Lu stopped and asked, Housekeeper Wang was an old man who was over sixty years old, he did things according to his duty, he also handled the affairs of the mansion well.

Seeing him waiting at the door in such a hurry, Yun Ruo Lu naturally thought that something had happened.

"There is indeed something, but it is not a bad thing. "The prince ordered someone to bring back a letter saying that the emperor was hosting a banquet at the Imperial Palace tonight, so the empress could bring the princess into the palace."

Upon hearing that it was this matter, Yun Ruo's nervous heart immediately relaxed.

It seemed that Yuchi Yi was very happy to have the immortal herbs, and knowing that Kui Xue had come to the Central Plains, he set up a feast to entertain her.

"Where is the prince?"

Upon hearing 'entering the palace', Kui Xue's eyes widened, immediately asking for Yuchi Chen's location.

"The Prince was unable to part with himself in the palace, so he only sent guards to wait at the palace gate."

"Alright then!" Sister Yun, let's enter the palace together! "

At this time, the carriage had already arrived at the entrance of the Royal Mansion. Yun Ruo knew from Butler Wang that Liu Yan Han had also entered the palace, but she was walking in front of them.

Just like this, Yun Ruo and Kui Xue sat in the carriage again and headed towards the palace.

The two of them had different thoughts. Yun Ruo Lu was still thinking about the man in black, while Mo Qianxue was thinking about how she would definitely tell the emperor about her marriage with Yuchi Chen when they met that night.
