Chapter 1236: Ashamed to See You_1

Don't overthink it. I've received a Holy Edict and will leave the Capital in five days, so I'm worried about you in case something happens."

"You're leaving the Capital? To do what?" Fang Guizhi became anxious upon hearing this, as if without Bai Ruozhu, she would lose her mainstay.
