"It's rare for you to be so considerate." Mu Zheng took the bowl of porridge and drank a mouthful. As expected, it was cool and refreshing.

"This is your duty." Mu Zhuo took a step back after he finished his sentence. He wanted to wait for Mu Zheng to finish eating before he waited for an opportunity to ask about it.

Mu Zheng took two bites and suddenly a piece of news came from outside. "Good news, good news!"

When Mu Zheng heard this, he hurriedly put down the porridge. "Quick, spread the news!"

When Mu Zhuo heard this, he was also secretly excited to the point that his hands were shaking.

Following that, a young eunuch hurriedly ran into the palace. "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Prince has sent news that he has already captured the Pirates Island and sent a letter for us. The details of the situation have already been written on this paper. Please have a look, Your Majesty. " The young eunuch offered the paper with both hands after he finished speaking.

"Quick, bring it over." Mu Zheng urged Eunuch Wei.

Eunuch Wei quickly stepped forward and took the paper clip.

Mu Zheng quickly opened the book and read it. After reading it, his expression relaxed. "Haha, hahaha! "Great!" Mu Zheng, who usually didn't smile, was overjoyed. He stood up with a beaming smile on his face.

Mu Zhuoyun had never seen Mu Zheng so happy. It must be good news. However, how could he be so happy at the news of his victory?

"It seems this matter is not simple." Mu Zhuo asked.

Seeing that Mu Zheng was so happy, Mu Zhuoyun took the opportunity to hurriedly step forward. "Imperial Father, what is written on this paper that could make Imperial Father so happy?"

Mu Zheng was currently in an extremely good mood. He did not blame Mu Zhuo for being rude. Instead, he handed over a paper clip. "Look!"

Mu Zhuozhi took the paper and quickly read through ten lines.

After reading it, Mu Zhuoyun fiercely stomped on the ground and tightly clenched his fist. He was also beaming with joy as his lips trembled: "That's great! This is great! "

It turned out that inside the paper money that Mu Ying had sent over, he had written out the whole matter of the corrupt officials who had cheated and deceived him. Later, he even wrote down the details of how the pirate leader had accepted the invitation.

So the true identity of this renowned pirate leader was actually a woman!

As for the rumor that Xue Ruyun had been humiliated by the leader of the pirates, she was completely unscathed and her innocence was still there. To the two people with Xue Luoyun in her heart, this was truly a heavenly piece of good news.

Right now, the army was already on their way back to the capital. It wouldn't be long before they reached the capital.

After he left, Mu Zhuzhe was so excited that he moved like the wind. Even the sky outside felt especially blue. The wind that blew over was extremely gentle.

Ever since Xue Luoyun had left, Mu Zhuo had been thinking about how he could find her, how he could transfer her back. On lovesick nights, every night was sleepless.

Mu Zheng watched Mu Zhuo walking out of the hall with a joyful expression on his face. He knew what Mu Zhuo was thinking.

It wasn't as if he couldn't forget Xue Ruyun, but he knew what Mu Ying had done to him, and he also knew the position in his heart. No matter if it was Mu Zhuo, or himself, it was destined that they would never have the chance to meet. Unfortunately, this silly kid didn't know these things and was still dreaming.

Forget it. When he grows up, there will always be repeated setbacks and setbacks. This is also the moment that he must experience in his entire life. Being young and reckless, one could not avoid being hurt by love.

Mu Zheng didn't want to attack him and let him enjoy this joy before knowing the truth.

On this side, with Mu Ying and Leng Yue accompanying him, Xue Ruoyun's journey was very leisurely and relaxed. Time seemed to have passed in the blink of an eye.

Passing by the boat rental area, Mu Ying's army paused for a moment, preparing to stay the night and travel the next day.

The owner of the boat recognized Xue Ruyun at a glance. Seeing that she was accompanied by a large army and the handsome and elegant prince, he quickly came to curry favor with her.

"Miss, please have some tea." While Mu Sheng and the rest were resting at the side, the boss hurriedly took the opportunity to pour them a cup of tea.

Xue Ruyun glanced at the boss, recognized him, and slightly nodded his head.

"Miss, you've finally returned. Oh right, where are your family?" The owner of the boat looked around and asked doubtfully.

"You two know each other?" Hearing so much from the boss, Mu Ying looked at Xue Ruyun.

Xue Ruyun shook his head. "Not exactly. He's just the boss who rented the boat before. He's just a snob that's in love with the world."

"Then hurry up and f * ck off!" Mu Sheng's expression immediately changed. He was not used to seeing any man take the opportunity to get close to Xue Ruyun.

Hearing Xue Ruyun's evaluation of him, the boss quickly shrunk his neck down.

When Xue Ruyun saw this boss, he immediately thought back to those few impoverished days. It was fortunate that they had the treasures given to them by Mu Ying. Otherwise, they wouldn't have known how they would have been able to live through those days.

When they thought of that time, everyone was starving. They all waited for Xue Duan Sheng to borrow money to fill their stomachs. But in the end, after a day in the sun, he left empty-handed.

When he thought back to Xue Duan Sheng's aged appearance, his heart began to ache for him. After all, blood was thicker than water. Even though he had done many things that let his mother down, that was all in the past. In this period of time, Xue Ruoyun had also thought things through. When his heart became calm, he would forgive him.

Especially before he left, he was the only one who thought for Xue Ruyun, and even wanted to beg the pirates to let him go. Just this point caused Xue Ruyun to be moved.

"Elder sister, we're rushing to the market right now. Let's go take a look." Xue Ruyun was in a daze, and Leng Yue discovered that the market in front of her was bustling with activity. She excitedly walked over and called out to him.

After so many years, Leng Yue had always stayed on the island and occasionally came out to rob. She had never had the chance to leisurely stroll around the market.

"Hmm …" Xue Ruyun thought about it for a while, because he was afraid it would affect his next trip.

"Will you?" Leng Yue's face was filled with anticipation.

"That's right, Miss. Last time, we didn't have a good tour around, so I really wanted to go as well." Yun Zhi also agreed on the side.

"We'll stay here for the night. If you want to go, then go." Mu Sheng could see that Xue Ruyun was afraid of delaying his journey.

"Alright." Xue Ruyun happily stood up, and the three of them walked down the street. Feeling worried, Mu Sheng followed behind.

After strolling around for a while, Leng Yue spotted a powder shop in front of them with a single glance. She excitedly walked in and started to pick and choose.

Mu Ying followed behind him in embarrassment.

Seeing that the shop had three handsome men and beautiful women who were so attractive, the Lady Boss quickly welcomed them warmly, spreading out all the good rouge and cosmetic powder in the shop.

When the passersby saw that Xue Ruoyun and the others were inside, they all squeezed their way inside. Firstly, they wanted to catch a glimpse of her beauty, and secondly, they also wished that they could use the same cosmetic powder to be as otherworldly as them.

Mu Ying looked at Xue Ruyun in the crowd. She was always so eye-catching, no matter where she went, she would always be dazzling.

Xue Ruyun saw that this shop was quite large, it was very similar to the one in the capital. He suddenly recalled the scene where he met Mu Ying in the same shop.

Back then, he had misunderstood the relationship between him and the crown prince and had angrily kidnapped him to give him a stern warning. He clearly cared for her in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he could only say something that hurt others and cause him to misunderstand. Then he got angry and kissed himself on the riverside.

Thinking of this, Xue Muyun's face turned red. She stealthily glanced at Mu Sheng. Who would have thought that she would meet Mu Ying's pitch-black eyes, which had been staring at her from the crowd.

Seeing her like this, Mu Ying was able to guess what she was thinking. Embarrassment showed on his face. He hurriedly put his fist to his mouth and coughed. He looked around and pretended to look carefully at the decorations of the shop.

It was still early in the morning after they bought the items. The few of them strolled around for a while longer.

Xue Luoyun specifically circled around to the entrance of the former bun house, but he saw that it had already been closed for a long time. The sign of the bun house was filled with dust, and one side even loosened and slanted. The door was tightly shut. There were a few hawkers hawking small toys at the entrance.

"So why did it shut down just like that?" Xue Luoyun was greatly disappointed.

"What are you looking at?" Leng Yue was playing with the little item she had just bought. She followed Xue Ruoyun's gaze, but no one knew what she was looking at.

"I remember there was a bun house before this, wasn't there?" Xue Luoyun muttered to himself.

At that time, Mrs. Zhao brought Xue Lian to paint them to eat an overbearing meal, and the boss even threatened to sell them to a brothel. He remembered that his family's steamed buns were not bad. Perhaps it was because he was hungry, but they tasted so good. His family's business was also very good. At that time, there were a lot of people watching him, so how could he be in such a sorry state?

With regards to this matter, Mu Sheng was well aware that the boss must have been afraid of bringing disaster upon himself and coveted money as well. He must have fled long ago after taking the gold.

Xue Ruyun was also somewhat sad, and was unwilling to leave. Although he looked calm on the surface, the hand inside his sleeve was already clenching painfully.

She had brought quite a bit of silver this time. Originally, she had wanted to redeem the items she had pawned back to her mother. He didn't expect that the buildings would be emptied of people. It was a joke in the world.

Thinking about how he treated his mother's inheritance for a few cages of buns, he wanted to redeem his mother, but he was unable to find her. It was truly a sad story.

She had already returned all the treasures that Mu Ying had given her that day to Xue Ruoyun after the cool moon had settled in her heart. Now that she only had this hairpin, it would be a regret that she would never be able to fill in her heart.

At night, everyone was resting in their own rooms. Xue Ruoyun tossed and turned, and in the end, he had a knot in his heart.

Seeing that the moon was bright and the stars were sparse outside the window, Xue Muyun simply put on a coat and went out alone.

Mu Sheng was about to come to find Xue Ruyun, but she saw from afar that she had come out by herself. She walked to a big tree and looked at the bright moon. Her heart was filled with melancholy.

She walked to the river bank and kicked at the small rocks nearby in boredom, finally deciding to sit down. The river rippled and sparkled, reflecting the light of the moon. It floated above Xue Luoyun's elegant face.

Mu Sheng followed closely behind and sat down at the side.

He had originally thought that Xue Ruyun would discover her, but he didn't expect that she would be so preoccupied with her own matters. Thus, after sitting for a long time, he could only cough when he saw that she had no response.

Hearing this sudden cough, Xue Luoyun finally reacted.

"When did you come? You scared me." Seeing the still elusive Mu Ying, Xue Ruoyun began to think about the matters in the small courtyard.
