Queen Duan reacted quickly and shouted angrily.

"You taught the little princess bad things and left the palace without permission. Do you know what crime you should be punished for?!"

Upon hearing that Xiao Ruyu had sneaked out of the palace again, Doctor Yang's mouth twitched twice, and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

But looking at Queen Duan's furious expression, he felt that something was wrong.

“Ahem…”

Queen Duan coughed twice, signaling him to come back to his senses.

So that’s how it is…

Doctor Yang fell to the ground with a bang, crawled forward on his knees and shouted.

"I know my crime!"

"Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Before Emperor Shangwen could speak, Empress Duan spoke again, "Since he has admitted his guilt, Your Majesty should give him a chance to make amends."

"Now, immediately, go out of the palace and bring the little princess back!"

Emperor Shangwen frowned tightly and looked at the two of them singing in unison, without saying a word for a long time.

The low-pressure air solidified. Doctor Yang did not hear his next instruction and thought that the matter was messed up, so he did not dare to say anything.

"That's all!"

"Since you have made great contributions in the past, I will give you a chance."

After a moment, Emperor Shangwen shouted, with some invisible pressure in his words.

"Bring the little princess back. Make sure she comes back safe and sound!"

He emphasized the last sentence very much. Doctor Yang heard the warning in his words and agreed immediately.

"I will definitely do it!"

After leaving the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Empress Duan stopped Imperial Physician Yang who was about to go back to the Imperial Physician's Office to pack his luggage.

Seeing her hesitant look, Imperial Doctor Yang glanced inside the hall and whispered.

"Don't worry, Queen, I will protect the little princess."

"I will definitely escort the little princess back."

Queen Duan nodded at him, with worry in her eyes that she couldn't suppress.

Outside the city.

After leaving the city, Eleven took Xiao Ruyu out of the carriage while the coachman was not paying attention, and the two of them slipped away.

After buying a horse with silver in the city, he headed south.

Before leaving the palace, Eleven specifically inquired and found out that the people from the court were heading south to look for clues, and they followed closely behind.

The wind was whistling in her ears, and Xiao Ruyu was held in Eleven's arms, holding the reins tightly.

【Eleven, how long will it take us to walk? 】

Eleven estimated the time it would take for the court to leave, and said slowly, "In about two days, we will be able to catch up with them."

"When the time comes, we can get their words out and then we'll know where to go."

Xiao Ruyu nodded and looked forward.

On the vast plain with high sky and vast land, Eleven held the reins tightly and shouted "Gee--" The horse ran freely on the grass. His body was upright and his clothes fluttered in the wind.

Ride on horseback and enjoy yourself happily.

Xiao Ruyu felt a rare sense of relief in his heart, and boldly stretched out his arms to feel the free wind.

The breeze blew her black hair and hit Eleven's cheek. He smiled and said, "Little princess, please be careful. We're going to speed up soon."

He swung the whip and hit the horse hard on its butt.

With a neigh, the horse ran forward at a faster speed.

After a few hours, the sky gradually turned dusk.

The horse was tired and walked slowly.

Xiao Ruyu looked around and found a small city in the distance.

[Eleven, let’s find a place to stay first. ]

At eleven o'clock, he was about to drive towards the city gate when he suddenly heard loud shouts behind him.

"Little princess! Little princess!"

The voice was extremely familiar. Xiao Ruyu and Eleven exchanged glances and became visibly panicked.

She turned her head and looked not far away, almost screaming out loud, and reached out and pinched the horse's back.

【Eleven! Hurry, hurry, hurry! 】

【Go!!!】

Xiao Ruyu spoke incoherently, pulled the reins to steer the horse forward, and almost fell off the horse in his panic.

Eleven quickly supported her body and held her in front of him, still not understanding what was happening.

When he looked back, his face changed instantly and he immediately swung the whip.

"drive--"

The horse felt pain and ran forward with all its might.

[It’s over, it’s over. How did Master catch up with me?! ]

Xiao Ruyu was in a mess and asked anxiously in his heart.

"Master's horse is the imperial Ferghana horse used by the imperial court." Eleven said in a calm voice, with a hint of nervousness in his words.

"I'm afraid the emperor has ordered Master to come and bring the little princess back personally."

It's all over now.

This was the only thought in Xiao Ruyu's mind.

[Hurry to the city gate and enter the city first, it's too empty here! ]

She commanded the ten men to rush to the city gate. When they arrived at the gate, two of them dismounted quickly.

Eleven picked her up and rushed into the city, ready to find a place to hide.

As soon as they dismounted, Doctor Yang was also stopped outside the city.

"It is not allowed to drive here during the day. Please dismount and walk."

The guard at the gate had a blank expression on his face and stretched out his hand to stop him.

Imperial Physician Yang was just about to show his palace token, but after searching around he let out a low cry.

"Oops, I forgot to bring my token."

He left the palace in such a hurry that he packed only two sets of clothes and left in such a hurry that he didn't even have time to take the token with him.

I glanced at Eleven holding Xiao Ruyu and turning a corner, and they disappeared in an instant.

Doctor Yang didn't care about anything else. He stopped his horse and rushed forward quickly.

"Yu'er! Eleven! Stop running!"

After running a few steps, he was still some distance away from Eleven. He panted, supported his knees, and waved his hands tiredly, trying to explain to them.

But Xiao Ruyu didn't listen to these words at all. She was only thinking about getting rid of Doctor Yang as soon as possible.

[Hurry, hurry, Master can't keep up with us any more, just find a place to get away from him! ]

Eleven understood what he meant and slipped into a haystack nearby, ready to hide Xiao Ruyu inside.

"Ouch."

As Doctor Yang let out a painful wail from afar, Xiao Ruyu paused.

【Master, what happened? ! 】

She turned her head subconsciously, and just saw Doctor Yang tripped over something under his feet and staggered. Although he managed to keep his feet steady, he was obviously holding his waist and half-bending over.

"Master seems to be injured."

Eleven also noticed this and felt a little bit sorry, so he looked at Xiao Ruyu for help.

Xiao Ruyu was indeed soft-hearted and slowed down her pace, watching Doctor Yang limping towards the two of them.

She admitted her mistake and lowered her head, preparing for the coming storm.

Unexpectedly, Doctor Yang just sighed deeply, and said something that surprised both of them.

"Why is Yu'er running?"

"Master is not here to arrest you."

Aren’t you here to take her back to the palace?

Xiao Ruyu and Eleven exchanged a puzzled look and hurried forward to support Doctor Yang.

[Master, didn’t Daddy and Mommy ask you to take us back? ]

Doctor Yang shook his head slightly, rubbed his sprained waist, and sighed.

"It was the Queen who asked Master to come..."
