After Shen Lansui came in, he saluted Emperor Hui'an in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, "I, my concubine, pay homage to your majesty."
At this moment, I don't see much anxiety.
Princess Rong Zhao glanced at her appreciatively, then turned to Emperor Hui'an and said, "My son, I have met my father."
Emperor Hui'an waved his hand, "Why are you here?"
Princess Rong Zhao got up, but Shen Lansui was still kneeling on the spot. She said firmly: "I asked the princess to take me into the palace. I have something to ask for, please do it for me."
Emperor Hui'an slowly frowned, "Do you want to go to Wanguan City?"
"Yes!" Shen Lansui had already prepared his words on the way, and now he said: "Although I am a woman, I have special skills that can save lives and heal the wounded. If I am gone, I will not cause trouble, but can help." I have a lot of work to do, and Saburo’s whereabouts are unknown now. I don’t want to wait around at home. I want to see people dead or corpses. I just want to have a good time.”
"Think carefully. Earth Dragon's Overturn is not an ordinary natural disaster. There is a risk of another earthquake at any time. If there is an eventuality and no one is found, is it worth risking your own life?"
Emperor Hui'an asked with a sullen face: "The disaster area is in ruins. There is no food, drink or shelter. If you go, you can only go as an accompanying doctor. You will not have the chance to be lazy then. It will be dirty, tiring and dangerous. So, do you still want to go?"
Shen Lansui nodded, "I want to go."
Emperor Hui'an narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
"Whether it's worth seeing the results can only be said by personal experience. It's too early to say whether it's worth it at this time, but I know that if I miss this opportunity, I will definitely regret it. Instead of worrying about whether it is worth it or not with no conclusion. If it’s worth it, it’s better to look at the present and eliminate the possibility of regret. Whether it’s worth it or not is temporary, but regret is lifelong.”
Rong Zhao looked at her and then at Emperor Hui'an, and said softly: "Father, just let her go. Lovers are so rare, how can we bear to separate them?"
Emperor Hui'an pondered for a long time and sighed, "You two have a deep relationship, that's all. Just follow Lao Qi."
Shen Lan was overjoyed and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Princess!"
After saying that, she picked up her clothes and turned around to leave, quickly going back to her house to pack her things.
Rong Zhao watched her leave with a bit of envy in his eyes.
Being able to run for your sweetheart is actually a kind of happiness.
She couldn't accompany Liang Ci, let alone stop him from going, so she could only send Shen Lansui there. With her here, Liang Ci and Qi Ge would at least be safe. I hope they can all come back safely.

Shen Lansui didn't stop for a moment after returning home. She started making arrangements as soon as she entered the house, "Liu Yan, go and ask Mulang back. There's no need to ask for news. Let him pack his clothes and go to Wanguan City with me."
Liu Yan asked: "What about the slave? Madam can't be left alone when she goes there, so the slave should go with her."
Shen Lansui paused and glanced at her, "You?"
Liuyan nodded, "This slave is good at martial arts and will not hold the lady back."
There are indeed many inconveniences in going there, and men and women are not intimate with each other. Sometimes it is necessary to have a maid by your side to facilitate things.
"Okay, then you also pack your things and follow me." Shen Lansui said and entered the bedroom. Spring Watcher and Summer Appreciator greeted them. She glanced at them and said, "Go and pack your clothes. I won't take anything else with you. Take it." Just put on a strong hairpin, bring more clothes to keep out the cold, both inside and outside, bring more banknotes, less rouge and gouache, and more frostbite and ointment..."
She muttered as she walked, and Guanchun and Xiaxia followed suit, and soon there were two big baggage on the table.
Shen Lansui thought about it again, turned around and went to the closet, opened Lu Xingyue's door, and took out a lot of clothes.
"Madam, won't you take the slaves with you?" Guan Chun felt a little uncomfortable seeing her busy.
Shen Lansui came over and touched her head and said, "It's too dangerous over there. You and Shang Xia just stay at home and keep an eye on things. If someone comes, someone in the family has to make an idea. If I'm not here, you have to stand up." .”
Then she thought for a moment, "And over there at the shop, you guys should take a look from time to time. If there is anything unusual, tell me in time. If you can't make up your mind, just leave it alone and wait until I come back to make plans."
Guanchun also knew that he really couldn't help, so he nodded and said, "Madam, you must come back well and take the Marquis with you."
"Don't worry, your wife is very powerful, nothing will happen to her." Shen Lansui smiled, looking really confident.
Watching spring and enjoying summer are affected and I feel relieved a little.
The two reluctantly sent Shen Lansui to the door, and Shen Lansui asked Meng Cheng and Ban Chao to follow her.
Shen Lansui and Liu Yan were in the carriage, while Mulang was driving.
Meng Cheng and Ban Chao took turns driving the pony carriage. When they were tired, they and Mulang would rest on the carriage.
The Seventh Prince and the others had already arrived at the city gate. Shen Lansui hurried to meet them. Without saying anything, he just waved his hands to Guan Chun and Xia Xia by the car window and said, "Go back, don't worry about us, wait for everything." Once the matter in Guancheng is resolved, we will definitely come back."
Guan Chun's eyes were light-lidded and now his eyes were red.
"Madam, please be careful along the way."
Shan Xia pursed her lips and said nothing, just nodded.
Shen Lansui smiled and lowered the curtain, and Liu Yan immediately closed the car window.
She could still hold on in front of others, but now she and Liu Yan were the only two left, and Shen Lansui couldn't pretend anymore.
She buried her face in her palms and took a deep breath.
Liu Yan called out worriedly: "Madam..."
"I'm fine." Shen Lansui said without raising her head, "I'll be fine in a moment."
Liu Yan was also not good at words. Although he was worried after hearing what she said, he still kept his mouth shut.
The two sat facing each other in silence.
Shen Lansui secretly wiped away the tear from the corner of his eye.
It's so uncomfortable to have a nightmare come true. Lu Xingyue, you promised me to come back, and you must never go back on it!

The seventh prince had no objection to Shen Lansui's joining, and even welcomed it. He knew that Shen Lansui's medical skills were very good, and he sent several guards to protect her. Shen Lansui did not refuse and accepted his kindness.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the Seventh Prince ordered everyone to set off immediately.
The horse's hooves trampled on the snow, slowly and dullly.
No one spoke along the way, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly heavy.
Everyone rushed day and night, only taking a short rest each time before continuing on their way. The original journey of three days and three nights was abruptly shortened to one day and one night.
At dawn the next day, they entered the scope of Wanguan City.
Shen Lansui opened the curtain and looked outside, and was immediately stunned.
The originally spacious official road was filled with rubble, and there were fallen trees lying in the middle.
The seventh prince ordered people to move the tree away, but found that there was another tree behind the tree. Looking around, it was full of devastation.
Some roads even have a crack, which could easily get a horse's hoof stuck if you're not careful.
Just clearing the road took them another half day.
Liang Ci commanded the soldiers to move the trees away, frowned and asked: "No one has cleaned the only way to Wanguan City, and the situation inside is not optimistic."
