Zhou Huaiyu ceased speaking, but Zhou Huaijin nodded, agreeing what Zhou Huaiyu was thinking inwardly. After all, not everything needed to be spoken out so straightforwardly.

Zhou Huaiyu felt shocked and surprised. He had never ever considered the game of thrones, nor had he ever considered that his Eighth Brother would be part of it. That was why he was seriously surprised.

However, when confirming with his Eighth Brother about his ambition, Zhou Huaiyu also started to digest the whole thing. He would have stopped his Eighth Brother from being involved if he had heard those words before the trip, but after the trip, he clearly understood that his Eighth Brother would be the best candidate, for the civilians’ sake, to take the throne.

Gradually, the surprise on his face disappeared. Instead, trust and encouragement filled Zhou Huaiyu’s eyes.

“Okay, we’ll see each other in the capital!” Zhou Huaiyu said with a heated voice.

“See you in the capital.” Zhou Huaijin answered.

When the whole thing was settled, everyone got busy in the yard. The horses that brought them here had been injured because of the long trip, and were unsuitable for another round of the trip. So they needed to get the horses changed and refill their grain. There was a lot for them to prepare.

It was getting increasingly hot nowadays, so they needed to have some thinner clothes ready as well.

It took them almost two days before they were fully-prepared to leave the Feather Mulberry Land.

Since they did not have to inform anyone in the court about the departure, they left directly.

Prince Muyi and Yinfeng were not able to see them off in public. So they watched them leaving as they stood at the gate.

Their figures disappeared into the distance.

Muyi thought for a while. “Yinfeng, follow them for a little longer while, don’t get too close.”

Yinfeng nodded and left.

He followed them at a distance.

As they almost approached the port, Sword One reminded her Elder Miss. “Elder Miss, it seems that Yinfeng has been following us at a distance. I wonder if he has something to tell us. We are arriving at the port soon, shall we wait for him?”

“Yinfeng is behind us?” Gu Chaoyan asked in surprise and nodded.

When they reached the port, Zhou Huaijin was speaking with Zhou Huaiyu while Gu Chaoyan was waiting by the wagon, but Yinfeng was still at a distance away, and still did not approach after seeing them stop.

Instead, he bowed to Gu Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan realized what he meant.

He was seeing them off! Oh well, that wasn’t an easy job for Yinfeng.

Gu Chaoyan let him go.

Zhou Huaiyu had already gone to the boat and headed towards Sheng Town. Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin were seeing him off, since their departing path wasn’t far from the port.

Zhou Huaiyu waved at Gu Chaoyan when he saw her.

He went onto the boat ahead of time. He had no idea what he should say to Gu Chaoyan, so he left directly.

As the boat was some distance away, Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin got into the wagon and headed back to the Saint Divine Land.

On the boat.

Wuhen looked at Zhou Huaiyu in confusion. “I know that you like her, but why did you force yourself to travel to Sheng Town which you dislike? You looked down on the town before. You can return to the capital with them, in this way, you can see her every day and you can even…”
