The three of them chatted a while longer, discussing how the two would return to prepare, and the day after tomorrow, the Empress Dowager would disguise herself as Nanny Zhang and enter the palace with Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu knew they were going to be separated temporarily, so she wanted to go back and have a proper talk. Her heart was even more reluctant for Yao Yuxuan to go to the Western Regions, but seeing Yao Yuxuan's firm attitude, she couldn't say anything to refuse.
Moreover, she vaguely felt Yao Yuxuan had other things to do, but her intention to help was genuine.
The next day, Bai Ruozhu treated Ji Ziyan as usual, and Ji Ziyan cooperated quite a bit. Bai Ruozhu herself didn't have the mind to consider his feelings much, nor did she have the mind to chat with him.
Upon arriving home, even Lin Ping'er noticed Bai Ruozhu's abnormality, stopping her to ask, "Ruozhu, are you not sleeping well? Why are there dark circles under your eyes?"
