257. Why haven't you come back yet? (Second update)

Qian Country Imperial Palace.

Duanmu Yi's eyes were deep as he looked at Gu Ling, "I thought you wouldn't come back."

Gu Ling nodded slightly, "In response to Your Majesty, I traveled far and wide, and returned to the capital as soon as I heard the news of my pardon."

"Oh?" Duanmu Yi's expression was faint, "Where were you when you received the news?"

Gu Ling answered, "A small fishing village in the southernmost part of Yin Country."

"Heh heh, no wonder my search parties couldn't find you, you ran so far." Duanmu Yi's tone was gentle, but he suddenly asked about Nian Jincheng, "Why didn't the beloved Nian Minister come with you to meet me? Does he still hold a grudge in his heart?"

Gu Ling calmly shook his head, "This small minister doesn't know where Nian Jincheng is."

Duanmu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Wasn't it you who saved him back then?"
