Doctor Yang smiled and shook his head as he watched the two of them leave, then began to prepare his belongings for leaving the palace.

Back in the bedroom, Xiao Ruyu turned around and discussed with Eleven, "Eleven, do you think we should bring our eldest brother with us when we leave the palace this time?"

Eleven was a little hesitant.

"Eleven doesn't know either. What does the little princess mean?"

[I saw my eldest brother was still in shock yesterday, so it would be better not to bring him along.]

Xiao Ruyu was worried about Xiao Ru'an and thought about everything.

[This trip is full of illusions. After all, my eldest brother has no spiritual power, so don't take him along on this adventure.]

Eleven nodded, agreeing with Xiao Ruyu's idea.

"It doesn't matter if you don't bring it. After all, we already know the location of that place..."

As the two were discussing, a dark shadow moved in the corner outside the hall and quietly disappeared into the bushes.

…

Before noon, Xiao Ruyu could not wait to get on the carriage leaving the palace.

Imperial Physician Yang persuaded Empress Duan to come out for a day under the pretext of looking for herbs.

"Little princess, Master spent half an hour talking to the Queen before bringing you out."

Turning his head to see how excited she was, Doctor Yang couldn't help but remind her.

"We must return to the palace before dark, otherwise the Queen will scold Master."

【Master, don't worry. Mother is very gentle.】

Xiao Ruyu was making some calculations as he walked.

Now that she has left the palace, it will take some time to find her back.

As she was thinking about it, she looked up and caught a glimpse of the carriage prepared not far from the palace gate. She couldn't wait to take small steps and run onto the carriage.

Just then, a "meow" was heard.

Xiao Ruyu was stunned and looked down.

The civet cat appeared out of nowhere, lay down at her feet, and rubbed her calves hard.

“Meow meow——”

Listening to its meows getting louder and louder, Xiao Ruyu thought that it was just reluctant to leave her.

She leaned over and picked it up, and kept it close to her face, muttering, "I will be back soon, Ergou, you don't have to worry."

"Just wait patiently in the palace."

Originally, she thought that the civet cat would leave obediently after hearing what she said, but it continued to call, and each call became more and more urgent.

Doctor Yang had already walked a few meters away. Seeing that Xiao Ruyu had not caught up yet, he urged her to speak.

"Little Princess, it's time to leave the palace. Don't delay."

Xiao Ruyu gently put the civet cat down and coaxed it.

"I'm leaving now. I'll play with you when I come back, okay?"

The civet cat ignored her words and continued to squat at her feet, refusing to leave.

Seeing this, Xiao Ruyu was deeply puzzled.

Why did this civet cat suddenly become unspiritual?

She squatted down tentatively and began to reason with it.

"I have to hurry on my way. I will accompany you when I come back."

The civet cat moved twice, but had no intention of leaving her feet.

"How about this, when I come back, I'll bring you ten big fish?"

Seeing that reason didn't make sense, Xiao Ruyu began to promise it, "As long as you wait here obediently, I will bring you ten big fish when I return to the palace."

"It's the kind of fish I caught in the river. It's very chewy and delicious."

Unexpectedly, when these words were uttered, the civet cat was visibly stunned for a moment, slowly moved its body away, and carefully licked Xiao Ruyu's palm.

Seeing it move away, Xiao Ruyu felt relieved. He listened to the urging voice of Doctor Yang not far away and shouted hurriedly.

“Here it comes!”

She touched the civet cat's head and ran straight to the carriage.

"The little princess is obsessed with the cat and won't leave?"

Doctor Yang said this jokingly with a hint of smile.

Xiao Ruyu was also puzzled.

[Ergou used to be the most spiritual, but I don’t know what happened today.]

She shook her head, thinking about leaving the palace.

The carriage slowly drove towards the hill outside the palace.

Half an hour later, Xiao Ruyu lifted the curtain and saw that the Forbidden City had become blurred. He estimated that he had been out of the palace for a long time.

A breeze blew and hit her face. She yawned and was about to take a nap when a strange noise suddenly came from the carriage.

“Hoo…Hoo…”

This is?

Xiao Ruyu and Eleven exchanged glances, then looked at Doctor Yang standing beside them.

All three of them were awake, so what was this snoring sound...

Where does it come from?

Xiao Ruyu became alert instantly and moved towards the back of the carriage following the sound.

Eleven clenched the sword tightly in his hand, ready to draw the sword against the enemy when he was caught off guard.

Carefully lifting the curtain at the back, a small face came into view.

[Stinky brother? ]

【Why are you here? ! 】

Xiao Ruyu was shocked. He looked at Xiao Rujin's sleeping face and smacked his lips from time to time, with saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth.

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she reached out and pinched Xiao Rujin's little face.

"who?!"

Xiao Rujin woke up suddenly and sat up abruptly.

Looking at the three people in front of him, he wiped the saliva from his lips and lowered his head a little embarrassedly, "Sister...what a coincidence."

“You are here too…”

“Hey…sister!”

The next second, Xiao Ruyu grabbed his collar and pulled him out from the pile of luggage.

Xiao Rujin sat in the middle of the carriage with his head hung, his eyes still a little sleepy.

[I was wondering why Ergou refused to let me out of the palace. It turns out there was someone hiding in the carriage. It seems I have wronged Ergou. I must reward him when I get back.]

Xiao Ruyu put her hands on her hips and looked at Xiao Rujin with an annoyed look on her face.

[Tell me, how did you get up here, you stinky little brother? ]

Without waiting for him to speak, Xiao Ruyu started scolding him.

[You are not feeling well, how can you act silly? ]

[You're still mixed in with all this luggage. Do you think I won't notice? ]

[If I hadn't discovered what had happened to you, my little brother, how would I explain this to my mother? ]

【Go back quickly! 】

Xiao Ruyu stopped the carriage and was about to ask the servants to send Xiao Rujin out, but suddenly he heard him sobbing.

She was stunned, and looked at him helplessly as he wiped his tears.

"I knew I was not in good health, so I never left the palace."

"But I just want to be with my sister, and she won't take me with her wherever she goes."

Xiao Rujin hung her head in grievance, unable to hold back her tears.

"I just want to be with my sister."

The corners of his eyes were red, his little hands kept wiping his tears, and his stubborn little face was full of tears.

Xiao Ruyu's heart tightened, remembering that Xiao Rujin had never left the palace in the past few years.

Ever since he blocked the poisonous insect for himself, his body has gradually become weaker.

If we say that she is the culprit behind everything that is happening now, it is still her.

Xiao Ruyu reached out her hand and carefully wiped away Xiao Rujin's tears.

[It’s all my sister’s fault. ]

[It was my sister who caused you trouble. ]

Her nose felt sore and tears flowed uncontrollably.

Xiao Ruyu turned her face away stubbornly and wiped her tears, remembering that Xiao Rujin's health had improved a lot in recent days.

[Well, if you want to follow me, just follow me.]

Xiao Rujin's tears stopped abruptly.

"Really?!"

"I can go on adventures with my sister!"
