Mu Jin smiled and said, "Brother, don't be angry. I've come to my senses over the past year. I was stubborn and caused Father and Brother to leave the capital and go to such a harsh place to guard the border."

Mu Yan told Mu Jin not to blame herself.

Mu Jin smiled and said, "If I hadn't been stuck here all year, I would have divorced Su Yuntian long ago and gone to the border to find you and Father."

Mu Yan was immediately stunned and said, "A Jin, what did you just say? Did I hear you wrong? You said you want to divorce Su Yuntian?"

Mu Jin smiled and said, "Yes, I've thought it through. I want to divorce Su Yuntian, so you can't cause him any trouble before the divorce. I was the one who insisted on marrying him back then, and now I want to divorce him in my own way. You and Father shouldn't interfere in this matter, okay?"

Mu Yan put down his teacup and stared at Mu Jin for a moment. He felt that Mu Jin had changed. In the three years since he last saw her, his A Jin had grown into a graceful young woman.

Although she was dressed in coarse cloth, it could not hide her beauty and resilience, as if no matter how great the wind and rain, it could not shake the determination in her heart!

Mu Yan likes Mu Jin now; he thinks this is the kind of heroic spirit and dashing demeanor that the Mu family's children should have.

But then he thought again that Mu Jin must have suffered too many grievances at the Yunwang Mansion, which forced him to change. His heart ached again.

“Ah Jin, your father and brother have won a great victory this time. The court has rewarded your father, brother, and all the soldiers by allowing them to return to the capital for a month to visit their families. When you go back, come with us to the General’s Mansion. When it’s time for the divorce, your brother will accompany you.”

Mu Jin smiled and said, "My marriage was arranged by my father through the Emperor. It was a marriage bestowed upon us, and we can't just get a divorce. We'll have to discuss it further after we return to the capital."

Mu Yan frowned. He hadn't expected this, but at the moment, nothing could make him happier than finding Mu Jin. He immediately urged Mu Jin to return to the capital with him.

Mu Jin didn't have much luggage to pack. She changed into the dress that Granny Lai had sewn for her, along with some medicine she had concocted, and left the bamboo house.

Knowing that the people from the General's Mansion were coming to pick up Mu Jin, everyone in the valley went to her bamboo house to see her off. Li Fugui and Granny Lai stood at the front and touched their eyes.

Granny Lai walked up to Mu Jin, looked at Mu Jin wearing the dress she had just made, her eyes red, and said, "I told you that if the princess wore the dress I sewed, she would definitely look as beautiful as a fairy."

With parting imminent, even though Mu Jin was a cold person, she was still slightly moved. Mu Jin smiled and nodded in response to Granny Lai.

Granny Lai continued, "Once you leave, it will be difficult for us to see the princess again. We knew you were leaving, so the other women and I rushed to the kitchen to make some cakes and pick some fruits for you to eat on your journey."

Upon hearing this, Mu Jin took the two large cloth bags containing pancakes and fruits from the old women with both hands and handed them to the guards beside her.

Having spent the past year together, Mu Jin knew how much they loved this valley, but she still kept her promise to them: if she were to leave one day, she would help them.

Mu Jin said, "I'm leaving. As I said before, if anyone wants to leave, I can help you."

Li Fugui wiped his eyes and said, "Your Highness, you know how much everyone loves the home you created for us. Now that you're gone, we'll keep watch for you. Whenever you return, we'll all kneel down and respond."

Mu Jin said knowingly, "I have some medicines and prescriptions in my bamboo house that you might need in the future. The prescriptions have herbal diagrams drawn by me, to make it easier for you to collect them when you go up the mountain. Granny Lai will distribute these to everyone. I'm leaving now, take care, everyone..."

Upon hearing this, the slaves all knelt down, bid farewell to Mu Jin, and watched as Mu Yan's entourage led Mu Jin away from the valley.

Mu Yan originally intended for Mu Jin to ride a horse with him, but he did not expect that Mu Jin had actually learned to ride a horse in the past few years.

He looked at the azure sky and Mu Jin, who was galloping alongside him, and asked, "Ah Jin, when did you learn to ride a horse? Before, when I tried to teach you to ride, you always complained that it was dirty and tiring, and you would cry and refuse to learn."

Mu Jin felt a little guilty. Her horseback riding skills were learned in the modern world, and she hadn't expected that the original owner of this body didn't know how to ride a horse.

She smiled and said, "Brother, as the daughter of a great general, how can I not know how to ride a horse? If word gets out, wouldn't that tarnish your and Father's reputation? After you went to the border, I had nothing better to do, so I started learning. I want to practice martial arts in the future and go to the border to fight with Father and Brother."

Mu Yan burst into laughter upon hearing Mu Jin's words.

"Alright! If you want to learn martial arts, I can teach you, or you can ask a master to teach you. It's up to you, whatever you like."

Mu Jin was infected by Mu Yan's hearty laughter and couldn't help but laugh along sincerely.

She is usually cold and aloof, not close to others, and doesn't understand what it's like to get along with family. But she is certain that she really likes the family that God has sent her.

The scenery along the way was breathtaking. They crossed majestic mountains and clear streams. Because of the remote location, they planned to camp in the forest.

As night fell, Mu Yan and his group broke the tranquility of the mountains and forests. They set up tents and lit a campfire in an open meadow.

Several guards went into the woods to find food, and soon they were seen carrying cleaned rabbits and stream fish to the campfire, where they roasted them over branches.

Soon, the aroma of roasted meat filled the air. They sat around the campfire, eating and chatting, enjoying this rare moment of peace.

Mu Yan tore off a rabbit leg and gave it to Mu Jin. The rabbit leg was roasted until it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and Mu Jin ate it with great satisfaction.

Mu Jin was curious about how Mu Yan had found her, so she asked him with a puzzled look.

"How did my brother find me? I searched that place for a year, but I just couldn't find a way out."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yan immediately laughed and said, "That's a long story, but I still have to thank that young man over there."

He immediately called out to a man not far away: "Young man, come here for a moment."

Upon hearing this, the man immediately approached Mu Yan and Mu Jin with a smile: "This humble one is Ling Yu, greetings to the General and the Princess!"

Mu Yan gave Mu Jin a brief introduction, explaining how the man in front of him had coincidentally met Mu Jin while hunting, and how, by chance, he had stumbled upon her while she was arguing with Su Yuntian at the entrance of the Yunwang Mansion, which led him to the valley to find Mu Jin.

Mu Jin looked at the man in front of her; she didn't believe there were so many coincidences in the world.
