Chapter 1148 Chu Palace
After the carriage had gone away for a while, the young man behind Master Wu asked, "Master, why didn't you say hello to Bai Zhi just now?"
Master Wu was taken aback: "Miss Bai? Where is she?"
The young man secretly scolded himself for talking too much, thinking that the adults saw it too.
"In the carriage that I just passed, I seem to have seen Miss Bai, and I thought you saw it too, my lord."
Master Wu was originally waiting for the people behind the escort to catch up. When he heard this, he immediately instructed his subordinates to leave a few people waiting here, and this official led them one step ahead.
The dust was flying, and Master Wu beat the horse away, chasing the carriage that was galloping ahead.
After chasing two hundred miles all the way, he didn't even see a shadow. He stopped the cavalry and asked the young man, "Have you seen it? Why didn't you see a shadow along the way? Her carriage can be compared to Are we running fast?"
The young man clearly remembered that the carriage was a very ordinary carriage. In terms of foot distance, how could it be possible to run faster than them alone? It was absolutely impossible.
The wind blew a corner of the curtain, and he just caught a glimpse of the profile face inside the curtain. How could such a face admit his mistake? How many such beauties could be found in this world?
"Mo, could it be that you are walking differently? So you haven't caught up?" The young man replied cautiously.
Master Wu thought for a while, and called someone over to ask questions: "How many roads are there after coming out of Harbour City?"
The man immediately took out the map he carried with him, spread it in front of Master Wu, pointed to the lines on the map and said, "The section of officials who just left the harbor city is a fork in ten miles, and we are going all the way. This one goes straight to Kyoto, and the other one leads to Jiangbei Port."
Jiangbei Port? Could it be that they went to Jiangbei Port?
"How about we go to Jiangbei Port instead? We can go back to Kyoto by that way, but it will take two more days."
Master Wu frowned and did not speak, and finally shook his head with a sigh: "This is destined, it is destined not to meet again, that's all."
The young man admires his family very much, even in the face of a beauty like Bai Zhi, he is so open-minded, he can afford it, and he can put it down.

Chu Palace
"Your Majesty, there is a rush to play from Harbour City." Eunuch Fu put a wax-sealed rush to the royal table.
Chu Yan's head lifted from the pile of memorials, and his tired eyes slanted towards the urgent, handsome face, piled with haggard.
"Tear down." His voice was slightly hoarse, and then the dryness in his throat sank, and he took the cold tea beside him to drink.
Fu Gonggong hurriedly said: "The tea is cold, the servant will give you another cup."
Chu Yan had already put the tea into his mouth and poured half of the cup in one breath: "It's hot, herbal tea is better." Putting the tea cup down, he leaned his back into the large chair, loosening the almost stiff muscles and bones. .
At this time, Eunuch Fu had already dismantled the haste and handed it to Chu Yan, "Your Majesty, please take a look."
Chu Yan took the letter, glanced at it roughly, and smiled: "Wu Aiqing really lived up to my expectations, very good."
At this time, another eunuch came in with a tray in his hand, and said to Chu Yan, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Xiao sent someone to bring sweet soup and snacks."
Chu Yan frowned and waved: "Take it!"
The eunuch was about to turn around when Eunuch Fu hurriedly stopped him: "Hold on."
Eunuch Fu turned his face to look at Chu Yan, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, General Xiao was only dispatched to the northwest to pacify the chaos last month. If you treat Mr. Xiao so coldly, it might be inappropriate if it reaches General Xiao's ears."
