With a raise of his eyebrows, quite a few people surrounded him.
It was said that the imperial concubine was unfavored, but now that the Jing King was personally welcomed by the most proud Commander Xiao and the horse was actually chosen by the prince himself, was the imperial concubine unfavoured or unfavored?
There was a flurry of discussion around, but Gu Daiyan's eyes lit up as she ran to the side of the little red horse and rubbed its head: "Is this for me?" Then can I ride a horse in the future? "
"Yes, Princess." Xiao Hai maintained his smile when he saw Gu Liuyan's excited expression.
"Great!" Gu Danyan quickly pulled on the reins and carefully climbed up, touching the horse's back: "That little red date at home doesn't like me, you have to like me."
The red horse circled in the air before carefully carrying her on its back to the back of Xiao Hai. It was much more obedient than the red horse in the hunting grounds.
"Does it have a name?" Xiao Hai slowly walked forward.
Gu Danyan slowly followed behind on her horse. Since this place was still under the Heavenly Flame, she naturally couldn't ride her horse away. She also felt comfortable and lightly patted the horse's back: "Then let's call it Silver Ear. I like the Red Jujube Silver Ear Lotus Seed Soup the most."
The black cat was called Red Date and the red horse was called Silver Ear. Xiao Hai helplessly shook his head.
The two of them slowly walked to the outside of the city gate, and Duan Chengxuan was already sitting on his horse, waiting for them. He saw Gu Liuyan continuing to mutter to herself as she stroked her horse's fur, and she only coughed lightly a few times before continuing, "If I don't increase my speed, I won't be able to get to the army camp tomorrow."
"I only dare to ride slowly. Why did you bring me along?" Gu Danyan was half-lying on the horse as he hugged it and rubbed it against his neck.
"Could it be that you want to bring harm to others in the Prince's Mansion?" Duan Chengxuan spurred his horse to his side. "Do you still remember my previous orders?"
"I remember. I can't get close to the Fourth Prince or Lady Wan-Er." Gu Liuyan rolled her eyes and pulled the reins to continue strolling out of the city. She was still smiling at the red horse beneath her: "Silver-ear, don't throw me down later, understand?"
Duan Cheng Xuan's face darkened and she was about to flare up, but Gu Xuan had already turned around and looked at him: "Why aren't you leaving?" Didn't you say that there isn't enough time? "
Duan Cheng Xuan rubbed his forehead, and Xiao Hai helplessly patted his shoulder as well. Xiao Hai had no choice but to bring his men to follow behind Duan Cheng Xuan and swiftly rush towards the distant Sunset Town.
Sunset Town was located in the southwest of Sky Flame and was on the riverbank. On the other side of the lake, behind the mountain, was a military point. It would take them at least a day to reach Sunset Town.
When the sun had set in the west, Gu Danyan was already sitting on Duan Chengxuan's horse. Her speed was indeed too slow.
Leaning on Duan Chengxuan's back, she helplessly looked at Yin He who was letting go of his maidservants and following beside her. After snorting loudly a few times, he came over and rubbed her calf when he was resting.
Duan Chengxuan wished he could throw this horse-loving person off, but he could only slow down and head up the mountain.
As the sky gradually darkened, it was difficult to travel on the mountain path. They needed to go to the broken temple in the mountain early and stay the night. They would arrive at Sunset Town tomorrow.
Along the way up the mountain, Gu Danyan was already drowsy.
There were already people slightly cleaning the broken temple. While Duan Chengxuan and Xiao Hai were talking, Gu Daiyan took advantage of the time to feed Silvery a bit of grass, then he picked up some hay and piled it up in a corner. He took out a medicinal pill and swallowed it, then directly fell asleep while leaning against the wall.
When Duan Cheng Xuan and Xiao Hai walked in, she was already sleeping soundly.
"Isn't wangfei pretty cute?" Xiao Hai chuckled and only ordered someone to cover her with the cloak.
"Since you think she's cute, why don't you just bring her back?" Duan Chengxuan felt helpless, but he lowered his voice a little and found a place to sit down as well. The subordinates behind him had long since lit the fire.
The few of them sat around a campfire. Duan Chengxuan asked, "How many times have the military camps at the Sunset Town been attacked these past few days?"
"This is already the sixth time this month. Until now, I still don't know which faction is causing this." The deputy general at the side had a solemn expression. He couldn't help but glance at Gu Daiyan in the corner and lowered his voice. "It's just that Your Highness, you've brought Princess Consort to such a dangerous place …"
"I heard that two doctors in the military camp of Sunset Town were mistakenly killed. The wangfei just so happens to be on top." Duan Chengxuan answered without thinking.
Although there was worry in their eyes, since Duan Chengxuan had already said so, they had nothing to say.
"Since Sunset Town is so close to the Heaven Flame, there is no need for outsiders to take the risk of attacking this place. People from the martial arts world rarely come here either. Which faction exactly is it …"
"That's a problem."
The few of them discussed passionately and Gu Daiyan was not sleeping well. However, after a while, she slowly got up from the corner, leisurely took out a water bag from her bag and drank some water. She then curiously sat beside Duan Chengxuan and silently listened.
"Sunset Town's military camp is set up for the Heavenly Flame. Our water army is mostly trained there. If we take the water route, it would also be a sharp blade on the river path ahead." He didn't know when he took out the map to look at.
Gu Liuyan glanced at it and sniffed it. He stretched out his hand to roast it and took out a piece of cake to eat.
"But aren't the people from the water stronghold easier to attack? Why did you have to come to Duskfall Town, not only did you kill the military doctor, but you also killed three high-ranking officers? A burly man with sideburns roared.
Gu Danyan was shocked. He looked at the big guy and asked, "Then why are we only killing generals and doctors? Is there anything special about the military doctors and generals of Sunset Town? "
"Nothing special." Xiao Hai took the opportunity to reply. When he finally regained his senses, everyone looked at her, "Esteemed wangfei, what do you mean by this?"
"It's difficult to kill a general, but a military doctor is easy to kill a general. So why are there so many generals who choose to kill them?" He then continued, "Sunset Town is considered to be in the center of the Sky Flame, there is no benefit in breaking through this place, so it is not important to capture the king first. After killing the military doctor, we can also kill the military doctor and then poison them, but why would the general die?"
The few of them fell into deep thought, and Duan Chengxuan also pondered as he said, "You suspect that something went wrong with the military camp."
"I think it's not that there's something wrong with the military camp, but that there's something wrong with the military camp itself." Gu Liuyan pointed to the map on the ground: "This place is very far away, and is so close to the Sky Flame. It is also used for the frontline of the war, but it took three generals to report it to the Prince. So, how many generals are there? "And how much oil is there to fish in this place every year?"
Their gazes met, and Duan Chengxuan had already understood what Gu Pingyan meant.
