Du Yunluo saw exhaustion on Mu Lianxiao's face.
Calculating the days, he seems to have just arrived at Shanyu Pass and then set out back to Xuancheng.
After handing Brother Yan over to Peng's house, Du Yunluo followed Mu Lianxiao into the inner room and asked, "What happened?"
Mu Lianxiao drank deeply from the teapot, wiped his mouth, and said, "The Holy Emperor wants me to return to the Capital."
Du Yunluo's breath stalled.
Return to the Capital...
Suddenly, she felt a wave of panic. Once the sound of water came from the clean room, Du Yunluo's emotions gradually settled down.
She laughed at herself, she was too paranoid.
Mu Lianxiao went back and forth to the Capital under the royal command. If anything happened along the way, the Holy Emperor would be furious and certainly investigate thoroughly.
Accidents on official roads aren't like battlefields; they can't be easily covered up.
If thoroughly investigated, who knows what might be uncovered.
