"Just now, that group of horse bandits were chasing me, and I accidentally lost Qingxing. You must find a way to bring Qingxing to me." Gu Yunru looked at him anxiously, her eyes and eyebrows pitiful.
"Don't worry, my people are also mixed in the horse bandits' group. This time we are luring all the horse bandits out to wipe them out completely. You don't have to worry." Cheng Shaoyuan's eyes were filled with confidence that he was determined to win, and Gu Yunru breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them stayed in the room for about half an incense stick of time. The noise outside the room gradually became quieter, and Gu Yunru walked out cautiously.
"There are indeed fewer people!" Gu Yunru raised her eyebrows and came to the deserted street. She saw many soldiers catching bandits and taking them all back. She felt relieved to see this scene. She clapped her hands and looked at Cheng Shaoyuan behind her, who still had a sad look on his face.
"What's wrong? Haven't you already led people to capture those horse bandits? Is there anything else?"
Looking at his worried expression, there must be something he is hiding from her. It seems that Cheng Shaoyuan has not had a smooth time without her.
"There is a group called the Qisha Gang. They are notorious for robbing foreign caravans on the road. This has attracted the attention of the Ministry of Justice, but many people have been sent to catch this group of thieves. Now people are in a panic because of the Qisha Gang."
"The name Qisha Gang sounds so familiar." Gu Yunru rubbed his earlobe and heard a burst of hurried footsteps. It was Qingxing!
"Qingxing, that's great, you're okay!" Gu Yunru excitedly hugged her in her arms. The scene just now really scared her to death.
"Princess, are you okay? Why are you with Lord Cheng?" Qing Xing searched for a long time before she saw the shadows of the two. She looked at their faces curiously and took a look.
Gu Yunru quickly interjected, "Okay, okay, forget about this. Are you hurt?"
"I'm not injured, Princess, but the bandits were too arrogant just now. Fortunately, the soldiers showed up and arrested them all."
"Well, that's good!"
Gu Yunru thought of the misunderstanding just now and felt a little scared. She looked at Cheng Shaoyuan and said, "Why don't we go to Ruyi Inn to get together? We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Drinking a few glasses of wine with friends can ease her anxiety, and Cheng Shaoyuan did not refuse, and they returned to Ruyi Inn together. Tingya stood by the counter with a big belly, and winked at Chu Ziqiao on the side, "Why do you think these two always come to our Ruyi Inn to drink?"
"Don't worry, Yunru won't do anything wrong."
Chu Ziqiao still admired the character of Princess Zhao very much. Sometimes she was naughty and cute, and sometimes she seemed quirky.
Gu Yunru stretched comfortably, sat cross-legged, and sniffed the wine in front of him.
Qing Xing looked at her anxiously, "Princess, you can't drink anymore. Do you remember how you were carried back last time?" Qing Xing reminded her quietly. Gu Yunru frowned impatiently, "I shouldn't have brought you out earlier. You are simply... Oh, forget it. Then I will drink half a cup today. Are you satisfied?"
Seeing the princess bargaining with her, Qing Xing had no choice but to silently agree. Cheng Shaoyuan took a small bite of the peanuts on the plate, looked at her and laughed helplessly, "You haven't changed, you're still the same as before."
"How could this person change so quickly? I am still me." Gu Yunru took a sip of the wine. The wine of Ruyi Inn is mellow. After drinking it for so long, there is not even a hint of water.
"By the way, have you found the assassin who killed Xie Bingyan?"
Gu Yunru has been worried about this matter. She feels that the assassin is likely to appear for the second time because the person she wants to kill is Rong Zhen. Since Rong Zhen did not die at his hands, he will definitely try his best to appear again.
Cheng Shaoyuan sighed helplessly and said unhappily: "We found that this assassin has some connection with the Qisha Gang. It is very likely that it was done by the Qisha Gang. However, we have not yet found the thief's lair. If there is any news, we will tell you."
"Tell me if you have any news. Why do you say the same thing every day? I am almost dying waiting for your news. How about this? Let me join you. Maybe I can help you find the assassin's lair."
Cheng Shaoyuan looked a little hesitant, and put the cup in front of him down with some uneasiness, "But you have a special identity, I'm afraid..."
"It's about status again. Isn't it just the title of a princess? Putting aside the status of a princess, am I no worse than those men?"
Gu Yunru questioned him, and Cheng Shaoyuan nodded without hesitation, which was considered as tacit agreement. Gu Yunru took a deep breath, "That's right, don't always underestimate my ability just because I'm a woman.
Starting tomorrow, I will join the Ministry of Justice and investigate the assassin with you."
After saying that, she raised her glass and clinked drinks with him. Cheng Shaoyuan didn't even have the chance to refuse. Qing Xing stuck out her tongue helplessly. She was secretly worried that if the prince knew about it, the princess would be blamed again.
After returning from Ruyi Inn, Gu Yunru looked a lot more cheerful. Qingxing stared at her and laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at? Do you remember what I just told you? If Rong Zhen asks, just say we came back after visiting the Rouge shop."
"Um……"

Qing Xing nodded obediently, but she was not a person who could lie. When she returned, she saw Rong Zhen sitting in the living room with an indifferent expression, drinking tea.
She winked at Qing Xing who was standing beside her, asking her to step back first and let her do the lying herself.
"Ahem, it's so late and you haven't rested yet, are you waiting for me?"
Gu Yunru put his hands behind his back and tried hard to act like a gentleman.
"Stop being so conceited." Rong Zhen was looking at a military book in front of him and was worried. He didn't expect her to come over.
"Hey, you are reading the military book again. Let me take a look." Gu Yunru became curious and took the military book to have a look. However, since he couldn't understand the words, he had to put the book back in disappointment.
"Are you also worried about the Qisha Gang?"
Gu Yunru lay on the table, staring at him with bright eyes.
"How do you know?" Rong Zhen never revealed any official business to her, but she seemed to know everything.
"Don't worry about how I know this. What happened on the street today is known to everyone."
Gu Yunru had a clever and eccentric smile on her face. Seeing a sinister look gradually appearing on Rong Zhen's face, she didn't dare to joke with him anymore.
