Early the next morning, Xiao Jin said that the blueprints had been verified and there was no doubt that this was the original set.

Su Ying had also packed her things and was ready to set off.

Aunt Zhao and the others knew that Su Ying was going out of the palace to settle some matter, but the matter involved state secrets, so they didn’t know what exactly Su Ying was going to do.

“What kind of important matter requires Your Imperial Highness to personally go out of the palace? Why don’t you let your servant accompany you? This way, there is someone to serve you by your side.”

When Bai Shuang and Lin Zhuyu found out that Su Ying was leaving the palace, they both enthusiastically offered to follow her, but Su Ying turned them down. “I’m going out of the city to handle some matters, not going on vacation. You guys will only be a hindrance if you follow me. Stay in the palace and watch the Young Princess and Young Prince closely round the clock. Don’t let anything happen to them.”

Su Ying’s words were decisive, and Bai Shuang and the others could only send Su Ying out of Conjugal Phoenix Palace with red-rimmed eyes.

Su Ying had disguised herself and dressed in the uniform of the Imperial Guards to go to the Imperial study. Xiao Jin had spent the entire night in the Imperial study to check the blueprints with the officials. He hadn’t slept the entire night, and anyway, he couldn’t fall asleep either. Just thinking about the danger Su Ying might face when she left made his heart feel all knotted and unbearable.

Su Ying took the already packed-up blueprints and turned to leave, but Xiao Jin hugged her from behind.

Su Ying stopped in her tracks and turned around to look straight into his eyes.

“No matter what happens, all you have to do is protect yourself,” Xiao Jin said.

“Shouldn’t you be telling me that even if 1 die, 1 have to protect this stack of blueprints at all costs?”

“As your man, 1 just want you to stay alive and safe.”

Su Ying hugged him tightly in response. “I know. You’re so long-winded. I’m leaving.”

Su Ying suddenly released her arms and turned around and left without looking back.

Zhang Shuming had already instructed his men to prepare a powerful steed. After leaving the Imperial Palace, Su Ying mounted the steed and left at lightning speed.

Based on the normal speed of a horse carriage, it would take at least ten days to half a month to travel from the capital to Jing Prefecture. However, if one rode a horse day and night without stopping, the time could be shortened to less than five days.

Su Ying avoided the biggest street and exited the city gates before the city became crowded.

After leaving the city, Su Ying took the official road. Along the official road, she could see the road signs on the roadside that could guide her in the right direction.

Not long after she rode onto the official road, she saw a horse carriage parked by the roadside in the distance.

Su Ying didn’t care, nor did she have any intention of slowing down.

However, just as she was about to ride past the horse carriage, a figure suddenly rushed out.

“Help, help!”

Behind that person, a man ran after her and slashed her back with a saber.

The person who was calling for help froze and fell to the ground. When the man saw someone coming over, he immediately turned around and fled.

Su Ying took out her laser gun and shot the man’s calf.

“Argh!”

The man endured the pain and got up to flee into the forest nearby.

Su Ying reined in her horse to slow down and came up to the fallen woman. She dismounted to check on her.

She reached out and touched the young woman’s neck. Her pulse had stopped beating. She was dead.

Su Ying frowned. She glanced at the young woman’s appearance and mounted her horse without hesitation. She didn’t have time to meddle in other people’s business. Xiao Jin’s men would arrive soon behind her. When she thought of this, she whipped her horse and continued forward.

What Su Ying didn’t know was that just as she rode her horse far away, the young woman lying on the ground moved her fingers, and her eyelashes fluttered as she opened her eyes.

Su Ying’s speed was very fast. Even though it was already noon, she had no intention of stopping. She only consumed some energy drink to replenish her energy and continued on her way. Even when it was already evening, she had no intention of stopping.

As night fell, Su Ying rode her horse to the courier station.

She got off the horse and felt her body floating when her two feet touched the ground. She didn’t stop for almost the whole day, and her bones were almost shattered from the horse’s jolting.

Su Ying pushed open the door to the courier station and walked in.

Upon hearing the noise, the general worker who was stationed at the courier station hurriedly came out from the back room. When he saw Su Ying in her official robe, he smiled and walked toward her.

“My Lord, where are you going on official business?”

Su Ying showed her Imperial Guards badge, and the general worker didn’t dare to ask any more questions.

“Sir, what do you need me to prepare for you?”

“A hot meal and a room to sleep in. Feed my horse well.”

“Alright, I’ll go and prepare it for you, Sir.”

The general worker brought Su Ying to a guest room on the second floor.

“I’ll prepare some food for you now, Sir.”

After closing the door, Su Ying sat cross-legged on the chair and circulated her energy. Prolonged jolting could easily cause muscle soreness. After circulating her energy, she used her blood vitality to nourish her meridians, which could alleviate the discomfort in her body to a certain extent.

Su Ying opened her two eyes when the general worker came in with the dishes.

“Sir, we don’t have anything good here. Please make do with what we can offer.”

Su Ying nodded slightly, and the general worker excused himself.

The general worker had brought her a bowl of braised noodles.

Su Ying took out a bottle of medicine and poured a drop into the bowl. After a while, the contents of the bowl didn’t change at all. Only then did she pick up her chopsticks and start eating.

After eating her fill, she asked for some hot water and gave herself a simple wash-up before going to bed.

When she opened her eyes again, the sky outside was still dark.

In order to save time, Su Ying quickly got up and ate some dry food before heading downstairs.

The general worker woke up when he heard the commotion. “Sir, it’s not even dawn yet. Why are you up so early?”

“I have to rush. Has my horse been fed?”

“He’s been fed, he’s been fed. I fed him last night and just now.”

“Mm-hmm. Bring him out.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Su Ying arrived outside the door, and the general worker quickly led the steed out.

Su Ying grabbed the reins and nimbly mounted her horse to continue on her journey.

After resting for one night yesterday, Su Ying didn’t plan to rest tonight. She planned to spend the rest of her time to hurry on her way.

After reaching the southern boundary, the humidity in the air became increasingly higher. When she saw that the sky was about to turn dark, she stopped at the foot of a mountain and planned to do some simple cleaning up before continuing her journey.

Su Ying rode to a large tree and dismounted. She then walked to the base of the tree to rest.

Two days had pa.s.sed. She didn’t know how the situation in Jing Prefecture was.

Su Ying leaned against the tree trunk to rest.

A half-yellow leaf slowly fell above the top of her head.

Just as the leaf was about to land on her, Su Ying suddenly opened her eyes and pulled out the dagger at her waist before hacking swiftly at the leaf.

Clang!

The leaf instantly broke into two halves and fell to the ground with a crisp sound of metal colliding.

Su Ying’s eyes narrowed as she quickly surveyed her surroundings.

In the darkness, there were shadows moving rapidly toward her.

Su Ying stood up and walked over to the horse’s side. She took out her laser gun. She couldn’t be bothered to waste her energy on some trash.

Just as the other party was about to approach, Su Ying raised the gun in her hand and fired.

“Oof!”

There was a m.u.f.fled groan in the darkness, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

When they realized that their presence had been discovered, those people no longer hid and immediately charged at Su Ying after showing up in a flash.

Su Ying’s expression was ominous as she quickly moved the laser gun in her hand, aiming accurately at each target.

“21, 22… 30!”

Whoos.h.!.+ All the men in black collapsed under the darkness of the night..
