They always say that he was born in the royal family and carried a heavy responsibility.

There were princes who were willing to bear this responsibility, who trained day and night, who dual cultivated martial arts and martial arts, and also princes who played around with their lives. Both of them could either perish in the Royal Palace or become kings in the future, or they could be imprisoned in the future.

Even Duan Cheng Xuan herself wanted to ask, "If I don't become the Emperor's brother with high hopes and only bring Su Yuwan away, then would I be able to be carefree and unrestrained now?"

But he could never forget the taste of the battlefield, the Dragon Throne of the palace.

The carriage moved through the night, causing Gu Pingyan to be unable to fall asleep. He could only force himself to look at Duan Chengxuan and say, "Have you ever seen the sun rise and set with Su Yuwan?"

"A thousand times." Duan Chengxuan said honestly.

Gu Danyan smiled and lifted the curtain to look outside, then laughed: "You and I are different."

"Why?"

"The sun rises and the sun sets. I have seen the crescent moon or the dark night, and I have seen them all by myself. However, when I go back and forth, I will always be alone." Facing the light of dawn on the mountain range, Gu Danyan lifted the corner of his mouth: "Only today when you and I saw the sunrise did we share some similarities."

Duan Chengxuan felt that what he said was false.

The sun rose and set, what could it mean?

When Gu Mingyan saw the sky brightening up, the smile on the corners of her mouth disappeared as she raised her hand to hold Duan Chengxuan's hand. Duan Chengxuan's hand was wide and strong, while Gu Danyan's hand was slightly small and small.

"What is this?"

Just to remind you, Your Highness, you were supposed to be a soaring eagle in the sky, a warlord on a battlefield, not a prince who left your kingdom for a single person." Just to remind Your Highness, you were supposed to be a soaring eagle in the sky, a war god, not a prince who left his country for a single person. Gu Danyan couldn't help but smile and then retracted his hand.

"Are you saying that This King did things in the wrong order?"

If he only placed Su Yu Wan by his side after obtaining the throne, everything would be different.

But unfortunately, no one beside him dared speak like that.

"Yes." Gu Liuyan calmly admitted: "Your highness should know that every step is wrong, every step is wrong."

"Looks like I won't be able to become an Emperor in the future." Duan Chengxuan couldn't help himself from sneering as a storm brewed in his eyes.

Gu Danyan rolled his eyes and finally nodded: "The slightest mistake would be thousands of miles. If you still want to get the throne for Su Yuwan, that would be nonsense."

Duan Chengxuan only raised his hand to grab onto her neck. His strength wasn't heavy, but his threat was extremely obvious.

Lifting his head slightly, Gu Danyan held onto Duan Chengxuan's wrist with both hands and continued, "By saying this, I mean to tell you, people are alive, they rise and set sun for the rest of their lives. You should have read it all by yourself, and now you want to bring a person who you cannot leave with you to soar across the horizon. That's a joke made by an idiot!"

"You just know how to anger This King, don't you!" Duan Cheng Xuan increased her strength.

Gu Mingyan grunted, and only pursed the corner of her lips, as she was certain that Duan Cheng Xuan wouldn't use a heavy hand.

In the next moment, Cheng Shan, who was driving the wagon, had already come over and stopped Duan Chengxuan.

Gu Liuyan rubbed his neck: "Forget it, if you don't want to hear the words of loyalty, forget it."

"You!"

"Your Highness! If this argument continues, there won't be any other way. " Cheng Shan quickly stopped them.

Duan Chengxuan didn't stay any longer and directly flicked his sleeves and left. He sat on his horse and looked at Cheng Shan. "Let the ghosts accompany her and follow me back to Tian Yan to see Wan'er."

"Have a safe trip." Gu Danyan fearlessly shook his hand.

After Duan Chengxuan rode his horse away, Cheng Shan received the order and didn't dare stay any longer. He waited until Duan Chengxuan's figure disappeared into the night before Gu Danyan smirked and glanced at the bamboo tube that was already in his sleeve.

On the second night, she called for the Qi family's carrier pigeons and sent the letter out.

Phantom Demon seemed to want to ask what it was, but Gu Pingyan chuckled and said: "That's the recipe I gave Misty Rain Pavilion. It's been a long time since I left, but I can't forget to earn money."

At this point, Phantom Demon no longer asked.

This carrier pigeon had traveled thousands of miles back to the Sky Flame, and as soon as Qi Lin saw the item on it, he sent someone to deliver it to the third prince's mansion.

Ever since Yue Qing had seen Gu Danyan being captured, Duan Chengrui no longer viewed him as a trusted aide. When he received the letter, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he ordered the people beside him to ambush him at the Hundred Herb Cliff. He must kill Duan Chengxuan and not let him return.

On the other side of the road, the sky was raining cats and dogs, and the two of them were trapped in the inn.

Gu Mingyan had already dyed herself in the cold to make medicinal wine, so she could not help but advise, "Your Highness asks me to take care of you more."

"You're still a child."

"I'm two years older than you." The ghost subconsciously answered.

Gu Danyan rolled his eyes and looked at the ghost carefully. He raised his eyebrows and said, "You even took my candied fruit yesterday to eat."

Phantom eyed the ceiling guiltily, not saying a word.

Gu Danyan only chuckled. The longer he stayed with ghosts, the more he knew that this person's personality was more like a child. However, in order to not show it on his face, he would usually stay silent and pretend to be cold.

"The Prince said that he is worried about you, so he will come tomorrow." The ghost suddenly opened his mouth.

"How is it that you're worried about me? It's that he hasn't returned to the Heavenly Flame to begin with." Gu Liuyan was too focused on sealing the wine. On the other side, she took a bowl of medicine and looked out the window. There was a lot of rain on the table, but she refused to close the window.

This Navy Tide was completely different from the four seasons in her memory. Navy Tide was like a drizzle in spring or summer, and there had never been any droughts. In addition, there were many good people in this peaceful and prosperous world, and the more the other countries saw the bustle, the more they glared at them like tigers stalking their prey.

The more water there is, the more fertile land there is. The peace and prosperity cannot be maintained for long. Chaos will soon arrive.

"Ghost, do you think that if there was a war at the border, would the prince go to the battlefield?"

"Naturally." Ghost only nodded his head, and continued after a while, "But you said just now that Your Highness did not reply to the Sky Flame, what do you mean?"

It's only been five days. It will at least take ten days for you to get back to Sky Flame. During these five days, I'm afraid that he'll only be able to catch up with the Mirage and find the antidote for Su Yu Wan.

Gu Liuyan no longer had a smile on his face. He was rubbing his fingers.

If she didn't want to borrow Duan Chengxuan's power to establish a foothold in Navy Tide, regardless of whether it was the imperial harem or the people at the front line, she needed to unblock them one by one. This action would take several years, but she didn't feel the least bit uncomfortable.

Once she established her footing, this world would be her playground. To work for the people, and in the future, the people would pave the way for her freedom. It would not be a loss.

"Are you not jealous of Lady Wan-Er?"

"So what if I'm jealous? It shouldn't be mine. I can't force it either."
