On the thirtieth of March, Daohua knew that Xiao Yeyang had to leave. She rose early and personally cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for him: "Eat quickly, I'm afraid you will have to spend your birthday on the Northern Frontier this year."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and began eating with chopsticks.
After breakfast, Xiao Yeyang went to bid farewell to Gu Jian, who gave him some potent poisons he had concocted. Gu Jian offered some advice, and then he waved for Daohua to escort Xiao Yeyang away.
"I won't take the people from the new residence with me. If anything happens, go find Deshou. He can contact the Jinling Guard in Zhongzhou."
Xiao Yeyang led Daohua down the mountain, carefully instructing her and giving her the token that signified his authority as an Investigator.
He didn't know how long he would be on the Northern Frontier and he was truly afraid that, in his absence, someone might bully Daohua.
