Su Yan learned from Xiao Huan that this was a fishing village, located on the border between Cangyue Country and Eastern Chu Country back in the day, but actually belonging to Cangyue Country.
It had been isolated for years, with few outsiders coming in, and the locals rarely going out.
Hearing this, Su Yan felt a bit discouraged. In such a distant place, she didn’t know if Chu Yuxiao could find her.
Moreover, even if she went looking for Chu Yuxiao, it would probably take a long time. What’s more, she couldn’t endure long journeys, so she really didn’t know what to do.
And Su Yan dared not tell Xiao Huan that she was from the Great Nan Dynasty. After all, the Great Nan Dynasty was currently at war with Cangyue Country...
Thus, Su Yan anxiously stayed at Xiao Huan’s house for two days, just as she decided she should go find Chu Yuxiao. Then she heard some news.
The news was told to her by her brother, Da Min, who had gone out fishing. He said that for the past few days, a large number of soldiers had been searching day and night along the Yue River for someone.
Only today, after traveling day and night, did they arrive at their fishing village, immediately asking the villagers if they had seen a pregnant woman. They said she was their lady who had fallen into the water.
Upon hearing this, Da Min knew it was related to Su Yan. So he hurried back to tell her about it.
He was worried that those soldiers were there to capture Su Yan, so he didn’t mention her situation. He quickly came back to inform her so that if they were there to capture her, she could escape quickly.
While Su Yan was listening excitedly, the courtyard door was knocked.
The three of them were taken aback; Da Min quickly stood up and said to Su Yan, "You hide quickly, I’ll deal with them."
"Did you notice where their army is from?" Su Yan asked. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Da Min and Xiao Huan, looking for a place for Su Yan to hide, answered her, "I’ve never seen an army before, but I heard from the elders that they are people from the Great Nan Dynasty. The Great Nan Dynasty is attacking Cangyue Country. They must be here to capture you, so hide quickly!"
Su Yan knew they must have misunderstood her as someone from Cangyue Country. Suddenly, she felt a bit embarrassed.
If they knew she was the Empress of the Great Nan Dynasty, she wondered how they would react.
Would they regret it in their hearts, thinking they saved an enemy...
Just as she thought this, the courtyard door was kicked open, and a group of soldiers rushed in. Leading them was General Guo Xing.
Seeing him, Su Yan sighed with relief, thankful that they were Chu Yuxiao’s people...
