He sat in the carriage and headed towards the border fortress to find Su Yuwan to take revenge.

Seeing Duan Chengxuan's fixated gaze on his, Gu Daiyan's thick-skinned face couldn't help but ask, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"Do you really want to take over the mess in Blackwater Town?"

"I should have done it if I agreed to it." Gu Danyan nodded. When he saw Duan Chengxuan reveal a rare cold and indifferent expression, he tensed up and looked at him, "On the contrary, your brother wants you to clean up this mess. You should know how to do it without leaving a trace …"

Duan Cheng Xuan's sharp gaze interrupted her following words: cut the grass at its roots.

Perhaps Duan Cong had never really thought of this, but Gu Daiyan knew how to deal with this mess.

Black Water Town was a place without laws, it was also where the emperor personally raised people. Currently, since Madam Yun was out in the open, no one could guarantee that the people of Black Water Town would retaliate after Yun Qi leaves. Thus, the only possibility was that this place would be set on fire.

However, it might be a bit troublesome for Gu Daiyan to get involved with the people and matters here.

"They have nothing to do with you. Don't be nosy." Duan Chengxuan's tone carried slight irritation.

"I already feel terrible about you letting me watch your soldiers die. Although they are villains, they are still human lives. I will kill what I should and I will not allow you to do anything that you should not kill."

Gu Danyan raised his chin and looked at each other. A fire lit up in front of him.

Again the disagreement arose, and perhaps, from the very beginning, they were essentially different.

The man's eyes were long as he calculated the number of lives being a number. Perhaps he did something wrong because of Su Yu Wan, but he didn't see human life as worthless, nor did he kill ordinary people. He only killed or solved criminals on the battlefield.

Under the watchful eyes of a woman like Gu Daiyan, there were people she could kill and people she could not kill. The numbers could not be used to calculate. She was not afraid of the passage of time either, she was afraid of killing someone by mistake.

"Then if there is a city full of madmen, should I slaughter the city?" Duan Cheng Xuan suddenly opened her mouth, and her expression was cold and grim.

"If he is sick, he should be cured. If he is a demon bloodthirsty, he must be slaughtered." Gu Liuyan raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Most of Blackwater are outlaws."

"A fugitive can do more than you think." Gu Liuyan looked at him: "In your hands, a fugitive can be a death warrior charging in the battlefield, or a greedy fool being taken advantage of by others. But if you let him directly enter the underworld, then the bones and flesh on the ground will be something you will never be able to wash away in your entire life."

Before she could even react, Gu Danyan had already arrived beside him and was sitting on his thigh. She placed both hands on his face and looked at him with a similar gloomy gaze, "Su Yuwan taught you that bloodlust is easy to kill, but I'm going to teach you how to endure, and how to benefit from it."

The carriage jolted and the man had to reach out and pull her waist into his arms.

"So you want me to use them, just like when you brought those slaves back."

"Yes. I've already said that I'm not a good person. I'm not trying to save others. I'm even proud of saving useful people, and ashamed of myself for saving losers." Gu Danyan relaxed his strength and carefully traced his eyes and eyelashes with his gaze before he continued, "Doctors practice medicine to save people, not for kindness."

"You did it for me?" Duan Cheng Xuan rubbed the side of her waist.

"I think too much, it's just a waste utilization." Gu Danyan patted his cheek: "When it's in front of Su Yu Wan, don't expose yourself, as long as you act more like me."

No matter what Gu Liuyan said now, Duan Chengxuan would nod in agreement.

Along the way, the two of them did not continue to harass each other. It was as if they had returned to the peaceful days of the past. Aside from the occasional argument, everything else remained the same.

As for Su Yu Wan who was being held in her courtyard in the city, she was suffering.

It was with great difficulty that she managed to tell Gu Cheng about the matter regarding Yun Que. Later on, she even borrowed Xiao Hai's hand to walk out, but she didn't expect that after arriving at the border, she would be imprisoned here. Xiao Hai had disappeared without a trace, and the letters he sent over to Duan Chenxuan had all sunk into the ocean.

These days, she had been getting skinnier and skinnier, but in order to maintain her posture, she continued to command the servants in the manor.

After a few days, the young maid, who had been angered, threw an empty bowl in front of her. "Do you want to eat or not!? Do you really think you are a concubine? No power, no power, no influence! "

"I'm still Crown Princess Jing. Wait until Big Brother Xuan arrives, I'll show you who's boss!"

Su Yu Wan also stood up and just threw the pieces out. Instantly, her hands were covered in blood.

The young maid was sent flying a bit. He screamed and ran outside, cursing while ordering his servant to seal the door.

On the other hand, Su Yu Wan remained indifferent to the wounds and even pinched them, hoping that when Duan Cheng Xuan came over, she would know how much suffering she had received.

Moreover, the current situation was strange. She was even worried that the Third Prince and the Sixth Prince would work together to kill Duan Cheng Xuan. If this was really the case, then her return would be meaningless.

However, she had no idea how long she had been here.

After a while, the door was pushed open again, and the little commander that had imprisoned her was brought back in luxurious clothing. He then instructed her to treat her wounds and put in some good food to curry favor with him, saying, "It's all because I'm blind and can't recognize Mount Tai. Duke Jing is coming over tomorrow. Please rest early."

Only then did Su Yu Wan smile and nod her head. On the surface, it seemed so, but deep down, she had already thought that she would have to tell her brother Xuan about her hardships, and then teach these servants a lesson.

The next day, Su Yu Wan meticulously dressed up and did not step out of the courtyard. She waited by the door.

The carriage stopped by the door. Su Yuwan did not see the usually tall and proud dark horse, but she did see Gu Danyan jump down from the carriage. When she saw her, she smiled faintly: "I didn't expect you to return to Navy Tide."

Su Yu Wan's expression was slightly cold, but thinking about the deal she had with her, she could only suppress her anger: "Where's Brother Xuan?"

"He should be at the back. I just followed him here to buy some medical books." Gu Danyan smiled and waved her hand as she left. She did indeed miss the days of reading books and fiddling with medicinal herbs.

"Your Highness, please bring a few people with you." Cheng Shan hurriedly said and even sent a few people to follow him.

When Su Yu Wan saw Cheng Shan following behind Gu Danyan, she became even angrier: "Cheng Shan, you're not working for Brother Xuan anymore, why are you following behind this foreign princess?"

Cheng Shan then explained what he had already prepared beforehand. "The Emperor has entrusted His Highness's trip to the Duke to arrange. In addition, many things happened before, so he sent me to follow him."

Su Yu Wan's expression changed. She was just about to reprimand Duan Cheng Xuan when she walked over from a short distance away. She immediately restrained the anger on her face and smiled as she pounced over. "Brother Xuan!"

But Duan Chengxuan stood in front of Gu Daiyan.
