"The moon is something you can see whenever you look up, no matter when."
Now, Gu Jingchun looked up at the moon and wondered where Shen Hechuan was and whether he was on his way.
Does he know where she is?
Gu Jingchun lowered his head, looked at the quiet courtyard, and immediately ran towards the gate.
Mo Junxing is currently running a fever, which is her only chance to leave.
If we don't leave now, when will we leave?
With that thought in mind, Gu Jingchun quietly opened the courtyard gate.
However, as soon as the courtyard gate opened, a cold face appeared outside.
Han Sheng held his sword.
His face was expressionless, like a ghost, standing there in the night. Gu Jingchun was so frightened that he subconsciously took a step back, clutching his chest and almost screaming.
"Are you crazy?"
"Standing here in the middle of the night, are you trying to scare people to death?"
Gu Jingchun unleashed a barrage of attacks on Han Sheng.
Han Sheng remained expressionless, his face hidden in the darkness, yet his words were full of threats.
"Miss Gu, where are you going in the middle of the night?"
Gu Jingchun smiled and started to speak while stretching his limbs.
"I'm not going anywhere, I'm just a little tired, so I'm going out to stretch my legs."
Han Sheng: "If Miss Gu wants to make some moves, why not try to cool down the monarch? After all, if the monarch dies, your son will be the first to die."
As Han Sheng spoke, he tossed a small doll into Gu Jingchun's arms.
Gu Jingchun looked at the doll in his hand and examined the rough stitches on it carefully.
Finally, it was discovered that the doll's tail also bore the name she had specially given to Gu Jinxi.
They were immediately shocked.
"Where did you get this from?"
Han Sheng: "Miss Gu, you must know very well where you got it from."
I am giving this to you to tell you to take good care of the monarch.
Otherwise, if something were to happen to him, your son wouldn't survive either.
"Bang--"
Gu Jingchun slammed the door shut, startling Han Sheng.
It was thanks to his quick reflexes that he stepped back in time; otherwise, his nose might have been pinched off.
Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he quickly covered the wounds on his abdomen and hands and flew up to a dense tree.
Just now, he had secretly given Mo Junxing a life-saving pill.
So, Mo Junxing's life was saved, but his injuries will probably require a few days to heal.
Han Sheng is the same.
Empress Dowager Xiao went all out this time, sending many assassins, all of whom perished at her hands.
It was at the cost of all his men's lives that he managed to save Mo Junxing and himself.
He has already sent out signals in secret, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
Therefore, this small village is now the safest place.
Han Sheng slept in the tree every day, protecting Mo Junxing's safety at all times and preventing Empress Xiao's people from finding the place and launching a sneak attack.

Meanwhile, on the other side...
Shen Hechuan and the other two sat on the ground.
Before him was a bonfire, and Tianji was roasting a freshly opened wild rabbit.
Meanwhile, the Earthly Branches were preparing medicine for Shen Hechuan.
Shen Hechuan looked up at the moon in the sky, and couldn't help but think of the scene when he held Gu Jingchun in his arms and admired the moon together in the courtyard of the inn.
At that time, he explained to Gu Jingchun that the moon could be a place to express grief.
But Gu Jingchun insisted that stars could also be used.
He said there are too many stars, and even if you want to express your grief, you might not be able to find one.
Gu Jingchun, however, told him with absolute certainty.
"Since it's about mourning, why let others find it? It's enough if you can find it yourself."
Shen Hechuan was shocked at the time.
She also understood that Gu Jingchun was like that; she appeared happy, but in reality, she had no one to rely on.
That's what he said back then.
Don't worry, I will always be by your side.
However, he still left her at that time.
No wonder Gu Jingchun left back then.
It's because I'm so awful.
******
Gu Jingchun returned to his room.
At this moment, Mo Junxing's face was flushed, his whole body was curled up, and he was muttering something under his breath.
Gu Jingchun stepped forward to listen, but he couldn't make out what he was saying.
Looking at his lifeless appearance, Gu Jingchun sighed, resignedly took a rag from the table, and went outside to wash it.
Finally, I took it back and casually threw it in his face.
The coolness of the rag seemed to make Mo Junxing feel a little more comfortable, and he stopped muttering to himself.
Gu Jingchun looked down at the doll in his hand, genuinely worried about his son. He thought for a moment, fearing that Mo Junxing might die here.
After a while, he resignedly picked up the rag again, went out to wash it, and put it back on his face.
After several such sessions, Gu Jingchun was covered in sweat.
Mo Junxing's complexion, however, had improved considerably.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchun gritted his teeth in hatred. Just as he was about to throw a rag at Mo Junxing's face again, Mo Junxing suddenly grabbed his hand.
"Mother!"
"I'm cold!"
...
"Please..."
"Give me something to eat!"
Mo Junxing frowned, shook his head, and struggled like a helpless child.
Gu Jingchun showed no sympathy for him after failing to pull his hand away.
