In my heart, I felt that the emperor was really thoughtful and still didn't believe it. But on the other hand, I also knew that my plan had come to an end.

She was calm and composed, looking like a normal person, but secretly she was controlling the paper figures to speed up the process.

It was obvious to the naked eye that the bad luck of the people around him also affected himself. After all, as an emperor, he had to be served by the maids and eunuchs around him, whether it was serving tea or washing or eating.

Although this bad luck will not affect you, it will affect the people around you. Either the teapot or cup will break and the water will almost splash on you, or the sedan chair you are riding in will shake and suddenly fall down.

This series of events made His Majesty a little frightened. Anyone who came into contact with him came the next day with a bruised face or nose, either from falls or bumps. Knowing that all this was due to him, even His Majesty felt a little guilty.

But he couldn't see any human intervention in these people...

The people around him kept changing, and he was not used to it at all. It seriously disturbed his life habits, and he even lost the energy to review memorials and discuss state affairs.

After another five days, the emperor finally gave up.

The next day, he released her from the palace, found an excuse, and issued an imperial decree, ordering her to go to Tongzhou Prefecture within five days, and also to the fiefdom where the princess was located.

It is said that Master Zhiquan calculated the will of heaven and determined that the princess is blessed with good fortune and should go to her fiefdom to bring blessings to all.

Putting aside the reactions of all parties caused by this decree, Liao Quan and his wife breathed a sigh of relief when they saw their daughter return home.

But soon, when he saw the imperial edict that followed, his expression turned a little bad.

"Tell me, did you have a hand in this matter of going to the fiefdom? Is this also part of your back-up plan?"

Facing Kelanlan's solemn question, Keqing nodded slightly and gently took Kelanlan's hand.

"Mother, I want to go out and see the world... I don't want to stay in the capital forever..."

The words were soft and gentle, but with a hint of coquettishness.

"You know, there are so many people suffering from disasters out there, and my daughter has always wanted to do her part. This is a good time."

Kelanlan sighed:

"You've had ideas since you were a kid, and now you dare to plot against that..."

"Mother..."

"What can I do? My daughter never gives up halfway on anything she decides on."

Although Kelanlan disagreed, she still pinched her daughter's face and said earnestly:

"I know that you are very skilled in martial arts now, and you are also capable of protecting yourself, but as my daughter, I am always worried about you as a parent, no matter how powerful you are..."

As she spoke, she took Keqing's hand and said earnestly:

"You have to make sure you come back safely, understand?"

"I knew you would understand me, mother!"

Keqing's eyes lit up and she nodded.

"I'll talk to your father. Do you need to make some preparations? Go find Xianglan and get some more stuff ready!"

Since she knew that she couldn't stop her daughter's desire for freedom, what else could Kelanlan do but spoil her.

In an instant, the entire Minister's Mansion became bustling with activity. Everything was prepared in large and small packages. Each courtyard was also busy. Boxes of all sizes carrying rare treasures, jade and jadeite were moved out. If you didn't know, you would have thought that someone was moving.

"I remember that there were several sets of silk mandarin duck embroidered mattresses at home that day. You should prepare them all."

"And the princess' favorite tea, prepare some more..."

"You need to have some cakes and pastries for food on the road, and bring plenty of salt and sugar. The food at Babao Pavilion tastes good and can be stored for a long time..."

The entire Minister's Mansion began to prepare in an orderly manner. Seeing her mother like this, Keqing felt warm in her heart, although she wanted to say that she had already asked her sister Xianglan to prepare many things in advance.

But as a mother, no matter how much you prepare, your mother will always think it is not enough, after all, her children's behavior makes her worry.

After thinking about it, Keqing decided that it would be better for her to quietly enjoy her mother's love.

As for the father and the daughter, they were indeed a little sulky at first about their daughter leaving, but they also knew that their daughter had said several times that the capital was boring and wanted to leave, so he must have had this idea at that time!

Not to mention the abilities that his daughter inadvertently revealed, which could save the lives of people who were suffering from natural disasters. This was much easier to cure the symptoms than simply providing porridge with grain. What reason did they have to refuse?

The daughter was born extraordinary, a god in the world. Perhaps such a daughter came to the world to save the people and save the Great Zhou. How could they keep her for their own selfish reasons?

Although she thought so in her heart, her face was full of reluctance when she thought about leaving her daughter. During this time, Keqing also actively stayed with her family and spent time with them day and night to make up for it.

"Why would mother leave if she is reluctant to do so?"

The night before leaving, the little silver dragon asked curiously.

Although she didn't understand much, she knew that her mother loved Lanlan and Liaoliao very much and was reluctant to leave them, just like she was reluctant to leave her mother. If she was so reluctant to leave, why should she leave?

Faced with the little silver dragon's immature questions, Keqing thought about it.

"Because Liao Liao and Lan Lan have their own lives, and I, mother, have my own life too. Mother has grown up."

Keqing knew early on that she was extraordinary, and there were strange signs when she was born.

As she grew up, some strange spells and ideas appeared in her mind from time to time. Although she could not use them due to lack of power, with the appearance of the little silver dragon and the intermittent words of the little coal ball, she also knew that she was different.

I am an outsider and I don’t belong to this world.

Perhaps she has a mission, and as her reputation grows and she helps more people and generates more power that Xiao Meiqiu calls humanitarian merit, Keqing knows that she cannot be trapped in this capital city, but needs to go out into this world.

And one's own mission may be related to this so-called merit, so leaving is necessary and cannot be stopped.

Power itself brings enough responsibility, and at this time, people are displaced and natural disasters are happening in all directions. It is time for her to take responsibility.

Somehow, Keqing felt that this was her chance to leave. If she missed it, she might be trapped here forever.

"My daughter, you must be careful when you go out. I know you are very skilled, but you can't just rely on your skills out there. There are many more dirty things that cannot be seen in public."

Kelanlan held Keqing's hand and warned him:

"Don't be fooled by others. Although Tongzhou Prefecture is your fiefdom, the powerful dragon cannot defeat the local snake. The local gentry families are not vegetarians. They are powerful wherever they are entrenched. Don't be impulsive."

"Mother knows you have an idea, but you must be careful. Two fists cannot beat four hands. Collusion between officials and businessmen is a common thing. And those refugees, you must not pity them casually, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

"Mother, I know! Please relax."

Keqing held Kelanlan's hand and comforted her.

"You have been forgotten. Guard Geng is escorting me. There are hundreds of capable soldiers and generals. You can relax."

Ke Lanlan kept giving instructions tirelessly, but Liao Quan on the side was unable to get a word in.

Kelanlan glanced at him and nudged him with her elbow: "Your daughter is leaving, why don't you say a few words?"

Liao Quan was innocent and couldn't get a word in. After thinking about it, he didn't know what to say. Everything he could say had been said by his wife, so he had to speak seriously.

"Be careful when you go out, and remember to send letters home often! Remember the things I handed you, and if you have any problems, go find your father's old friends. You are my daughter, and they have to take care of you. If they don't, tell your father and I will settle the score with them then."

Seeing her father's heroic words, Keqing frowned. Dad, are you sure you want to settle the score with them? Instead of being kicked out.

Although this is unexpected, my father is notoriously cowardly. Even if he wants to complain, he needs someone to support him.

So Keqing didn't believe in her father's so-called settlement of accounts from the bottom of her heart.

But no matter how much she didn't believe it, she could feel the deep love his daughter had for her.

"I understand. Take care, Dad and Mom."

Keqing waved her hand and signaled to the captain of the guards in front. The carriage moved slowly and soon disappeared.

"Drive! Drive!"

Just as Keqing regained her composure, she heard the sound of horses approaching from behind.

"Xu~"

"Third Prince, why are you here..."

"Why, can't I see someone off?"

Hearing the sound outside, Keqing lifted the curtain and indeed heard that familiar voice.

"How did you come?"

"Humph, if I didn't come, someone would leave without saying goodbye, but you're so different, you're leaving without saying anything..."

Zhou Xin blew his nose and rolled his eyes, obviously unhappy that Keqing left without saying goodbye.

If I hadn't had someone watching me the whole time, I wouldn't have known that this guy was in such a hurry to leave and was leaving today.

"It's not like I'm gone. I think this is fine..."

Keqing touched her nose. She just didn't want to go through those mushy things.

Is it because of your farewell that you left without saying goodbye?

I have already written the farewell letter and am waiting to give it to them after I leave.

"Yes, it would be good if you just left, but it's a pity that those who care about you will be pissed off."

Zhou Xin didn't look happy and snorted like an old cow sulking.

Keqing laughed and blinked.

"How can you still ride a horse when you are so angry?"

"you!"

Zhou Xin said angrily, I knew this guy wouldn't even have the nerve to apologize, will he die if I say something nice?

"Don't be angry, it's my fault. I should have said goodbye to you properly before leaving. I'm just not used to parting."

Keqing apologized sincerely, and Zhou Xin was choked and didn't know what to say.

"Humph, I thought you were heartless."

Zhou Xin rolled his eyes and did not comment. Then he took out a bundle from his arms and threw it into the carriage.

"Here, this is what those three gave me. Seriously, I'm not an errand boy!"

Keqing took the bundle and after hearing his words she immediately knew that those three people were referring to his three sisters and she thanked him sincerely.

"Thank you. I'll trouble you next..."

"I knew that without you reminding me. I didn't expect you had already planned it by then. No wonder you made that request to me."

Although Zhou Xin didn't express his curiosity, he looked at Keqing with an inquiring tone.

"Be careful not to die outside. Even if I protect you, I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, Third Prince, it won't happen..."

Looking at the girl's calm and confident expression, Zhou Xin snorted and said nothing.

"Drive~drive~"

He came and went in a hurry, and soon disappeared.

"The princess?"

Guard Geng glanced at the Third Prince, then at Keqing, and stepped forward and bowed.

It is said that the Third Prince dislikes Princess Ke, it seems that the rumors are not credible. Although the Prince has a bad attitude on the surface, he came specially to see Princess Ke off, and his words were full of care, and it seems that they have a very good relationship.

"Let's set off..."

"Yes……"

Soon, the carriage continued to move forward. Keqing pulled down the curtain to block out the sight from the dark. A convoy of more than a hundred meters long gradually crossed the city gate and headed out of the city.

In the carriage, Keqing opened the package. Inside the package were some special books, some gadgets that looked carefully prepared, and a few letters.

There was a hint of tenderness in Keqing's eyes.

She opened the envelope, and a whiff of ink scent lingered in her nostrils like an autumn breeze.

Keqing opened the folded letter, looked at the familiar handwriting on it, and read it from beginning to end.

Looking at the familiar tone and the care between the lines, my brows couldn't help but relax.

……

……

The princess who was appointed by the emperor was going to her fiefdom by imperial decree, so naturally she had to have the necessary majesty and ceremony. In order to deal with the risks on the road, Keqing's entourage had more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages and trucks to transport people and various gold, silver, jewelry, food and cloth.

The guards around him numbered as many as two hundred men. Although they were not martial arts masters, they were all elite soldiers and generals.

Therefore, the speed was not slow along the way. In addition, all the servants and goods were transported by horse-drawn carriages. However, it only took one day to reach a distance of fifty miles from the capital.

"Princess, it's getting late. Do we need to set up camp?"
