Chapter 1147: Chu Palace

After the carriage had gone away for a while, the young servant behind Master Wu asked, "Master, why didn't you say hello to Miss Bai just now?"

Master Wu was taken aback: "Miss Bai? Where is she?"

The young servant secretly scolded himself for talking too much, thinking that the adults saw it too.

"In the carriage that just passed, I seem to have seen Miss Bai, and I thought you saw it too, my lord."

Master Wu was originally waiting for the people behind the escort to catch up. When he heard this, he immediately instructed his subordinates to leave a few people to wait there, and this official led them one step ahead.

The dust was flying, and Master Wu beat the horse away, chasing the carriage that was galloping ahead.

After chasing two hundred miles all the way, he didn't even see a shadow. He stopped the cavalry and asked the young servant: "Have you really seen her? Why didn't I even see a shadow along the way? Is our carriage can't be compared to hers?"

The young servant clearly remembered that the carriage was very ordinary. In terms of foot distance, how could it be possible to run faster than them alone? It was impossible.

The wind blew a corner of the curtain, and he just caught a glimpse of the profile face inside the curtain. How could he mistake such a face? How many such beauties could be found in this world?

"Master, could it be that we are walking a different road? So you failed to catch up?" The young servant replied cautiously.

Master Wu thought for a while, and called someone over to ask questions: "How many roads are there after coming out of Harbour City?"

The man immediately took out the map he carried with him, spread it in front of Master Wu, pointed to the lines on the map, and said, "There are two sections of official road 10 miles away from the harbor city, and we are going all the way here straight to the capital. The other one leads to Jiangbei Port."

Jiangbei Port? Could it be that they went to Jiangbei Port?

"How about we go to Jiangbei Port instead? We can also go back to the capital along that way, but it will take 2 more days."

Master Wu frowned and did not speak, and finally shook his head with a sigh: "This is destined, it is destined not to meet again, that's all."

The young servant admires his master very much, even in the face of a beauty like Bai Zhi, he was so open-minded. He can take her but choose to let go.

In the Chu Palace

"Your Majesty, there is news from Harbour City." Eunuch Fu put a wax-sealed rush to the royal table.

Chu Yan lifted his head from the pile of memorials, and his tired eyes slanted towards the eunuch. His handsome face looked haggard.

"Open it." His voice was slightly hoarse. The dryness in his throat made him uncomfortable, so he took the cold tea beside him to drink.

Eunuch Fu hurriedly said: "The tea is cold, this servant will give you another cup."

Chu Yan had already put the teacup closed his mouth and poured half of the cup in one breath: "It's hot, herbal tea is better." After putting down the teacup, he leaned his back into the large chair, loosening the almost stiff muscles and bones.

At this time, Eunuch Fu had already opened up the letter and handed it to Chu Yan, "Your Majesty, please take a look."

Chu Yan took the letter, glanced roughly, and smiled: "Master Wu lived up to my expectations, very good."

At this time, another eunuch came in with a tray in his hand, and said to Chu Yan: "Your Majesty, Miss Xiao sent someone to bring sweet soup and snacks."

Chu Yan frowned and waved: "Take it away!"

The eunuch was about to turn around when Eunuch Fu hurriedly stopped him: "Hold on."

Eunuch Fu turned his face to look at Chu Yan, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, General Xiao was only dispatched to the northwest to pacify the chaos last month. If you treat Miss Xiao so coldly, it might be inappropriate if it reaches General Xiao's ears."
