Mo Yu, however, withstood Yun Qingluo's icy gaze and said in a deep voice, "When His Highness left, he instructed me to take good care of the Princess Consort. The battlefield is too dangerous, and the Princess Consort cannot go. Besides, the Princess Consort is now pregnant, and the journey is long and fraught with unknown dangers..."

Mo Yu glanced at Yun Qingluo and continued with difficulty, "If, if His Highness really... the child in the Princess's womb is His Highness's only offspring, the Princess must not take the risk."

Yun Qingluo gave Mo Yu a deep look, and upon hearing the last sentence, her eyes flickered slightly.

She knew it, but she couldn't do it.

An Jiu also chimed in, "Yes, Your Highness, the battlefield is too dangerous. You should stay in the palace and wait for the Prince to return. He is very lucky and will surely return safely."

Yun Qinglu remained silent, but her hand, hidden in her sleeve, twitched slightly.

The atmosphere remained tense for a moment before Yun Qingluo looked up at Mo Yu.

"I have to go, Mo Yu. You can't stop me. Guard the gold mine and the palace, and wait for us to come back," Yun Qingluo said leisurely to Mo Yu.

Mo Yu frowned, about to speak, when she suddenly felt something strange in her body, and her expression changed drastically. "Your Highness, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed to the ground.

When An Jiu saw Mo Yu lying on the ground, she quickly checked him over and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had just fainted. When she looked up, she saw Yun Qinglu staring intently at her.

An Jiu gave a bitter smile. "Your Highness, ever since I first followed you, you have been my master. If you really decide to go find the Prince, I am willing to follow you to the death."

Yun Qingluo glanced at him and said quietly, "I had forgotten about you. I used you to test the drug before, but this sleeping potion didn't work on you."

An Jiu was taken aback. She thought the princess was keeping him around on purpose, but it turned out she was overthinking it.

An Jiu couldn't help but feel a little wronged, "Your Highness..."

Yun Qinglu frowned. "The back gate of the Prince's mansion, two horses, wait for me for half a cup of tea."

An Jiu was overjoyed and hurriedly nodded and ran out.

Yun Qingluo found paper and pen and wrote two letters. One was for Yun Tao and Yun Xin, about some things related to the Divine Doctor Valley.

The letter was for Yun's father. She was afraid that if her father knew she had gone to the battlefield, he would follow her to find her, so she instructed him to keep a close eye on the gold mine.

Yun Qingluo opened the wardrobe and took out all the quilts, pillows, and changes of clothes, including Mo Beichen's and hers.

They then sneaked into the kitchen and emptied it of all the food and vegetables, as well as two large water tanks filled with water.

Xiao Yi looked at a room in the medical system that was filled with all sorts of odds and ends, and felt that the whole system was unhappy.

“This is a medical system, not your storage space,” Xiao Yi said grimly.

Yun Qingluo said ingratiatingly, "It's just temporary. When we go to the Valley of Divine Physicians, I'll fill your bag with medicinal herb incense, okay? Be good."

He thought to himself, "Why is his temper getting worse? He didn't skimp on supplies back in modern times."

After packing up, Yun Qingluo headed straight for the back gate of the Prince's Mansion, and she and An Jiu rode out of the city overnight.

Riding ahead of everyone else, they arrived at the city gate just as dawn was breaking. The guards had just opened the gate when, rubbing their sleepy eyes, they felt a slight coolness on their cheeks. Due to the thick fog, they could only see two gray shadows brushing past each other.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with doubt: Did something just pass by?

One of the guards spun around in his calves, "B-Big Brother, is there something dirty going on?"

The guard beside him, whether to comfort his companion or himself, said, "Heaven and Earth above, the Son of Heaven and Earth above, what could possibly happen at the foot of the imperial city? Stop talking nonsense."

In the third year of Tianhe, in mid-April.

Yun Qingluo was more than three months pregnant. An Jiu initially advised Yun Qingluo to buy a carriage so that she would be more comfortable, but Yun Qingluo kept refusing and refused no matter what.

An Jiu could only feel heartbroken, but there was nothing she could do.

Moreover, along the way, Yun Qingluo and An Jiu took shortcuts through the mountains and forests to save time.

For three consecutive days, the two traveled without sleep or rest. In order to replenish the energy needed by their bodies, Yun Qingluo took out the nutrient solution that Xiao Yi had developed, which could be drunk directly.

When An Jiu saw Yun Qingluo conjure up things he had never seen before out of thin air without any attempt to hide them, he was shocked, but it also strengthened his resolve to follow Yun Qingluo to the death.

"Your Highness, you possess a rare treasure, so you must not reveal it. Now that we are alone, we should be careful."

Yun Qingluo nodded to indicate that she understood and handed him the nutrient solution.

An Jiu continued, "Your Highness, please keep this for yourself. I'm tough and resilient; this little bit of bitterness is nothing to me."

After saying that, fearing that Yun Qingluo might not believe him, he took advantage of the break to demonstrate a set of punches to her.

Yun Qingluo looked at him and said quietly, "I'm just afraid you'll hold me back."

An Jiu scratched the back of his head, “...”

It turns out he was overthinking things again.

“Your Highness, I will not hold you back. I have brought some dry food and water, which is enough for me,” An Jiu said, still showing his loyalty.

Yun Qingluo sighed helplessly, "How come I never noticed how long-winded you were before?"

An Jiu shut his mouth in frustration and stopped talking, continuing to follow Yun Qingluo on their way.

The capital city, the general's mansion.

"What? Luo Luo went to the battlefield? No, I have to bring her back right away. Isn't this ridiculous?" Yun's father's tone changed from initial shock to deep worry.

Yunmu took the letter from Yunfu's hand and read it carefully. She couldn't help but cry until her eyes were red. "How can she, a pregnant woman, go to the battlefield? What are the people in the Prince's mansion doing? Why didn't they stop her?"

Mr. Yun immediately said, "I will bring her back right away. Madam, please wait at home. Don't worry, Luo Luo will be fine."

Yunmu wiped away her tears with a handkerchief without saying a word, but called out to Yunfu just as he was about to leave.

“Come back. Luo Luo mentioned something else in her letter. She said that you have to help her personally. She doesn’t trust anyone else. Let’s listen to Luo Luo.”

"Luo Luo has already made up her mind about this matter. Even if we call her back, she won't feel at ease. It's better to let her go. Sigh." Yun's mother pulled Yun's father back to his seat, handed him the letter in her hand, and made him read it again.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Yun's father finally spoke after a long while, "With the involvement of the other two countries, it seems that the prince is really in grave danger. Since this was entrusted to me by Luoluo, I will protect the gold mine even if it costs me my old life."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a clear voice came from outside the courtyard, “General, you’re about to become a grandfather, why do you still keep talking about risking your life? Besides, those people aren’t worth risking your life for.”

Yun's father got up in surprise and came out. When he saw that it was Han Yixuan, he hurriedly asked, "Why is Young Master Han here?"
