Yu Youniang only discovered at the age of five that her mother was actually the true daughter of the Yong'an Marquis Estate, who had been separated from them for over twenty years.

Chapter 168 Changing Route to Nanzhao
"Has Youning finished delivering the food? We're leaving in the next two days."
Yu Youning nodded, "They've been delivered! They were all delivered yesterday."
Those food supplies seem to be quite a lot, and in fact, they are really a lot.
But Liangcheng is a big city with more than 100,000 people.
If these food supplies were distributed, each family would only get about a hundred pounds.
Yu Youning has been running out every day these days, delivering food to the people. Even if there is a lot of food, it has all been given away.
If all the food had not been sent out, Yu Youning would not have stayed in the mansion so obediently. She would definitely have gone out to play.
But now, all the people in the city know her, and when they see her they give her delicious food, not just money.
In the past, she would give food back to others, but now the food has been given away and she has nothing to give, so she is unwilling to go out.
But there is really nothing fun to do in this Zhenbei Palace.
Yu Youning looked out eagerly, "When can we leave? Master always asks us to wait, wait, wait, how long will it take?"
Chu Huaixu didn't know how long to wait, so he could only persuade, "Maybe it's because the Valley Master has something important to do. After all, the Valley Master is very clever..."
As he was speaking, Jiang Lingzhou appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
Jiang Lingzhou walked very quickly and soon arrived at the house.
"Youning, Master asked me to come find you."
Yu Youning stood up instantly and said, "I'll go right away!"
As she spoke, she ran outside without waiting for Jiang Lingzhou.
Chu Huaixu also stood up and was about to walk out.
Seeing this, Jiang Lingzhou quickly called out to him, "What are you going to do, Your Highness?"
"I'll go take a look."
"But Master only called Youning and didn't invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"It's okay." Chu Huaixu smiled nonchalantly, "I'll talk to the Valley Master myself. If he gets angry, I'll definitely take the full responsibility and won't implicate you."
Jiang Lingzhou looked at Chu Huaixu's departing back, feeling a little angry, but not knowing what to say.
Is he worried about being implicated?
He is obviously the crown prince, so how could he act like a rogue?
Jiang Lingzhou was thinking in a mess, but when he saw Chu Huaixu was about to walk out of the yard, he quickly collected his thoughts and quickly followed him.
...
Yu Youning ran very fast all the way and soon arrived at the yard where Chu Huaishan lived.
Chu Huaishan was sitting in the pavilion brewing tea, and the whole yard was filled with the fragrance of tea.
Yu Youning skipped into the pavilion and stood beside Chu Huaishan. "Master, what do you want me for? Can we leave now?"
"Yes, I can leave now," Chu Huaishan said, "but the destination has changed."
"What do you mean?" Yu Youning tilted her head. "Then where are we going?"
"Go to Nanzhao."
"Nanzhao?"
Yu Youning's voice suddenly rose.
Children's voices are naturally shrill.
In this shocking situation, the voice was even more shrill.
Even though Chu Huaishan had prepared himself mentally, his ears still hurt when he suddenly heard the sound.
Chu Huaishan rubbed his ears, "Master knows you don't want to go, but -"
"I do!"
"What?" Chu Huaishan looked at Yu Youning in surprise, "What did you just say?"
Yu Youning looked at Chu Huaishan with sparkling eyes, "Master, I say I am willing! I am willing to go! When are we going?"
She really wants to go!
Nanzhao!
What a wonderful place!
I heard that there are mushrooms everywhere and they are incredibly delicious!
She had gone to Nanzhao before, but she went there in a hurry and came back in a hurry, so she had no chance to pick mushrooms at all.
Now I have the opportunity to go there again, or go with my master, then I can definitely eat while walking!
Although the master doesn’t eat as much as her, he loves to eat more than her!
Chu Huaishan was originally still thinking that Yu Youning said she was willing to go, maybe because she didn't want to disappoint him, so she was deliberately putting herself in a difficult position.
But he also felt that based on Yu Youning's personality, he would not do such a thing.
No matter who she wronged, Yu Youning would never wrong herself.
After seeing the expression on Yu Youning's face and the expectation in her eyes, Chu Huaishan completely believed that Yu Youning was really willing to go.
While feeling relieved, Chu Huaishan was also a little curious, "Youning, you seem to be looking forward to Nanzhao?"
He had heard before that Yu Youning was a good friend of Wei Zhao, the seventh prince of Nanzhao. Was she so eager to go to Nanzhao because of Wei Zhao?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Yu Youning's baby voice answer.
"Of course I'm looking forward to it! There are a lot of mushrooms to eat in Nanzhao! They taste so delicious! Master, have you ever tried them?"
Chu Huaishan, "..."
What friends!
What familiarity!
All of you stand aside!
Yu Youning is here just for food!
However, thinking of the delicious taste of mushrooms, Chu Huaishan still swallowed his saliva.
"I've eaten it, and it's really delicious. I can give it a try when I go to Nanzhao this time! I heard that the same mushrooms are prepared differently in different places in Nanzhao."
"Okay, okay! We must try it!" Yu Youning agreed repeatedly.
Chu Huaishan was smiling happily until he saw Chu Huaixu and Jiang Lingzhou walking into the courtyard together out of the corner of his eye. Then he remembered that he still had something important to say. He quickly coughed lightly and put away the smile on his face.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here too." Chu Huaishan nodded slightly, "That's quite a coincidence. There's no need to specially invite the Crown Prince."
"Valley Master, you are too polite. I just happened to be with Youning. When I heard that you were looking for Youning, I was worried that it was something serious, so I followed you here. I hope you don't mind."
"Of course I won't be offended. Please take a seat, Your Highness."
Chu Huaixu first glanced at Yu Youning. Seeing that Yu Youning's face was full of smiles and her eyes were shining, he knew that it must be a good thing. He didn't worry too much and sat down directly.
I had just sat down when I heard Chu Huaishan speak.
"I've just discussed it with Youning. I'll take her and her junior brother to Nanzhao tomorrow. I'm afraid we can't go south from the west with the Crown Prince."
Chu Huaixu, who had just sat down, jumped up immediately when he heard this.
"Why do you suddenly want to go to Nanzhao?"
"I can also go to Nanzhao with Youning!"
Chu Huaixu covered his chest with his hands, his face showing pain. "Youning is my destined daughter. Without Youning by my side, my body will quickly decline. Forget going south. I might die before I even get back to the capital."
As he spoke, his body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.
Chu Huaixu's series of actions shocked the other three.
Especially Yu Youning, who was stunned when he saw it.
After realizing what was happening, Yu Youning quickly grabbed Chu Huaixu and said, "Xu, sit down! Sit down!"
Seeing Yu Youning's concern for him, Chu Huaixu felt a lot more relaxed.
It seems that Youning still cares about herself.
However, the next moment, Chu Huaixu felt his wrist being grabbed.
Looking closely, he saw Yu Youning holding his wrist and taking his pulse seriously.
"Youning!"
Yu Youning looked at Chu Huaixu seriously with a stern face, "Don't talk!"
Chu Huaixu could only swallow the rest of his words, but his eyes were still fixed on Yu Youning without blinking, and his heart was beating even faster.
After a few breaths, Yu Youning let go of Chu Huaixu's hand and let out a long breath.
"You scared me!"
"I thought something was really going to happen to you!"
"Ah Xu, don't worry!"
"You've been with me for such a long time, and you've been taking the sugar pills I gave you. Your health has improved a lot."
"Even if I'm gone for a year, a half, three years, five years, as long as you take your candy pills properly, nothing will happen!"
"You will definitely not die! Are you still not confident in my medical skills?"
"Don't you believe me?"
Yu Youning's crisp words came out one after another, making Chu Huaixu dizzy.
no.......
Of course he didn't distrust Yu Youning.
Of course, he also knew that his health was not as bad as he said.
But doesn’t he want to go to Nanzhao with Yu Youning?
Before Chu Huaishan could say anything, Yu Youning exposed his past.
But Yu Youning still looked proud and even asked for praise.
No matter how complicated Chu Huaixu's feelings were, he could only nod in the end when Yu Youning stared at him like that.
"Yes! Youning is right! Youning's medical skills are amazing! I believe in Youning!"
Jiang Lingzhou was watching this scene from the side. Seeing Chu Huaixu unable to express his pain and having to swallow it down, he almost laughed out loud.
It seems that he is not the only one who will be humiliated by Youning!
Even the crown prince would be defeated when facing Youning.
Chu Huaixu took a deep breath, adjusted his composure, and then said seriously, "Although there's nothing wrong with my body, I came out this time just to see some things. Since you're going to Nanzhao, I'll go with you. It's a good opportunity to see the local customs and people there. Although our relationship with Nanzhao is pretty good right now, who can predict what will happen in the future? Now that we have the opportunity to go and see it, it's like getting to know them in advance, so that if we really do face off in the future, we can deal with it."
This statement is well-reasoned and cannot be refuted.
Jiang Lingzhou knew that Chu Huaixu was talking nonsense, but he could only stare blankly, with no other options.
Even Chu Huaishan looked at Chu Huaixu in surprise.
He had only heard that the prince was resourceful despite his young age.
Now it seems that it is indeed resourceful.
Just because of this plot...
Chu Huaixu looked at the bewildered Yu Youning and spoke softly again, "Let's go to Nanzhao together. We can also go see Wei Zhao together. I wonder how he's doing since returning to Nanzhao. Has the Queen of Nanzhao bullied him again?"
Speaking of their mutual friend, Yu Youning's mind instantly cleared up, "You're right! We should go see him!"
As she spoke, she turned and looked eagerly at Chu Huaishan, "Master, then let Ah Xu go with us?"
