"We must go buy some camels, but where can we buy camels nearby?"

Gu Yunru looked around and suddenly saw the two guards approaching with two camels.

"Where have you been?" Gu Yunru turned around and shouted at them.

"In reply to my lady, the princess knows that you must have camels to cross the desert, so she has prepared them for you in advance."

The princess was indeed a thoughtful and considerate person. Gu Yunru clapped her hands excitedly. Now, all her worries were thrown behind her.

"Thank your princess for me." Gu Yunru happily took Qingxing on the camel, and the two guys hid in the jungle quietly again.

After running for half an incense stick of time, Shuying couldn't hold on any longer and fell off the camel's back. Xiuyun was so anxious that she shouted, "Miss, Miss!"

Gu Yunru heard the sound and quickly rolled off the camel's back and rushed to Shuying's side. Seeing that her lips were pale, he quickly raised his head and said, "Your girl is thirsty. Hurry and check if there is any water in the kettle."

"Okay." Xiuyun opened the kettle on her waist and saw that it was empty.

"No more." Xiuyun frowned. Qingxing opened the water bottle on her waist and saw that there was no water. They had walked in the desert for half a day, but most of the water had been drunk.

"What should I do?" Gu Yunru was in a dilemma. As she had to hurry on her journey, she threw most of her luggage on the carriage and only took some money, water and dry food. Now, the water was finished before they had even started walking for half a day. It showed that the living environment here was extremely harsh.

"You guys wait first!"

Gu Yunru saw some saplings standing in the golden desert nearby, and knew that there must be water underneath these saplings, so she called Qingxing to help her dig the soil under the roots of the trees.

"Miss, you're not going to give Miss Shuying mud to eat, are you?"

"How could that be?" After Gu Yunru said that, she tore a piece of cloth from the hem of her skirt and wrapped all the mud in it. The material of the clothes was breathable, which was just right for filtering.

"Miss, what are you doing?" Qing Xing was confused. She didn't understand what the young lady was doing. When she saw the young lady actually took out a few drops of clear water from the mud, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Miss, can you drink like this?"

"Of course."

Gu Yunru taught her how to filter the water in the mud, and asked her to hold the kettle to collect water, while she herself held the mud and ran to Shuying.

After struggling for about half an incense stick of time, Shuying finally looked better.

"Ms. Gu, I'm sorry. I've delayed everyone's journey." Shuying was full of self-blame and guilt, which made her very troubled throughout the journey.

"Don't say those words. You've already come out. Concubine Shu and the others will surely be furious when they find out you're missing."

Seeing that it was getting dark, Gu Yunru suggested that everyone find a place to rest first, and it would not be too late to continue their journey tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, in the palace, Concubine Shu learned that Gu Yunru and Ying Da Ying had disappeared together, so she ran to the Queen Mother's bedroom to complain, crying and saying, "Since Miss Gu entered the palace, there has been no peace in the harem. Not only does she not know how to behave herself, she also indulges the maids around her, who also do not know how to behave themselves.

Whenever they offended me, I just turned a blind eye. I didn't expect their behavior to be so bad that they actually took Ying and left the palace with them."

The Queen Mother touched the Buddhist beads in her hand and slowly opened her eyes after listening to her muttering, "Shu Fei, you are in charge of the six palaces after all, how come you come to me for such a small matter?"

The Queen Mother hated to hear about these trivial matters in the harem.

Shu Fei knew that crying in front of her was useless, so she wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, "I know that the Queen Mother likes the eldest daughter of the Gu family very much, but look at what this Miss Gu has done in the palace.

If I really enter Prince Zhao's palace in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve His Royal Highness Prince Zhao wholeheartedly."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Queen Mother stopped twirling the Buddhist beads in her hand, looked at Concubine Shu, sighed and said, "The child will come back. Send someone to bring Ying back. Remember not to hurt the two of them."

"yes."

Shufei just wanted to get an oral order from the Empress Dowager to capture the two men.

If the two of them unfortunately lost their lives on the road, they could use the Queen Mother as a shield.

After returning to the palace, she handed the order to Zi Luo, who knelt on one knee beside her, lowered her head, and said solemnly: "I will never let you down, Your Majesty."

"Well, you are a good sword that I have carefully cultivated. Now the sword is about to be unsheathed. If it is not sharpened, others will really think that this sword is useless. This time you go there, no matter whether the person is dead or alive, you must capture him back, understand?"

"clear."

Zi Luo changed into a purple outfit and disappeared into the palace night.

Gu Yunru woke up and covered her eyes with her sleeves. It was the first time she slept on the sand. The sand felt soft, but after sleeping on it for a night, her back and waist ached.

I heard a cough next to me and sat up quickly.

"Shuying, are you okay?"

She was very worried that her body would not be able to handle such a tough night.

"It's okay, young lady, don't worry." Shuying gave a forced laugh. After a short rest, everyone got on their camels and continued on their journey.

Qing Xing sat on the camel's back and looked at Gu Yunru in front of her and said, "Miss, are we going east all the way?"

"Yes, we can only reach our destination by moving forward. Besides, Your Highness Prince Zhao has brought so many people with him, so he must rest here for a few days, right?"

Gu Yunru thought innocently as he saw a few more ants in front of him. Gradually, they grew bigger and turned out to be a few people. These people wore masks on their faces and rode on horses. They ran towards them with murderous aura and surrounded them.

"There are actually a few people from the Central Plains here!"

The leader took a few glances at Gu Yunru's face and didn't expect that they were actually some peerless beauties. These girls all had fair skin and tender flesh.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?" Gu Yunru straightened his back and shouted at the leader. Qingxing behind him was trembling with fear and quietly pulled her sleeve and said, "Miss, there are tattoos on their necks. They should be the nearby sand bandits."
