Gu Fei moved a chair and sat at the door all night. Fortunately, the weather was not cold.

When it was almost dawn, Gu Fei returned to the palace, took the medicine and brought it to Prime Minister Su.

Several guards also got up. Gu Fei told them to keep watch and went to the dock.

It was the first time for Gu Fei to come here. He saw large and small ships parked by the dock.

Most of them were cargo ships. At this time, many cargo ships were loading cargo.

A team of people wearing the uniforms of the Wucheng Military Department patrolled the dock.

A hanger-on came over and looked at Gu Fei, "Brother, do you want to transport goods or go on a long journey?"

Gu Fei smiled, "I want to hire a boat to Ping'an City, are there any bigger boats?"

The man's eyes lit up, "Of course, as long as you can afford the money, you can hire a ship."

Gu Fei bowed, "I have the money, as long as the boat is comfortable."

The man greeted warmly, "Okay, brother, follow me."

He took Gu Fei for a walk, pointed to a ship by the river and said, "Brother, what do you think of this ship?"

Gu Fei nodded slightly and went straight to the boat.

A middle-aged couple was sitting at the bow. When they saw someone coming, they immediately stood up with a smile on their faces: "Sir, you need to take a boat. Our boat is going to Hezhou. It costs 10 taels per person if you include food, and 5 taels if you don't."

"Pay the deposit today and we'll set off tomorrow."

Gu Fei nodded, "Can I go up and take a look?"

The middle-aged woman made way, "Young man, just look. Our boat has been picking up passengers on this canal all year round. It's clean inside."

Gu Fei got on the boat, and the woman opened the door of a cabin. Gu Fei went in and took a look. The layout inside was similar to that of an inn, with a bed, a table, a wardrobe, and a window. The cabin was high enough and had enough light.

She nodded, "I want to rent your boat to Ping'an City, a total of six people, you can't take other passengers, we will leave in a while, okay?"

The woman's face was as bright as a flower, "Okay, of course, if you charter a boat to Ping'an City, including meals, it will cost a total of two hundred taels of silver."

"Okay, then let's make a deal first, I'll bring people to the boat in a while." Gu Fei gave the woman a deposit of two taels of silver, got off the boat, and threw a piece of silver to the idle man.

The man smiled and bowed, Gu Fei stopped, "By the way, are those people from the Five Cities Military Department over there? They patrol here every day?"

The man smiled and said, "Not really, just these two days."

"Didn't someone rob the execution ground the other day? Now all the carriages and boats leaving the city must be checked, for fear that fugitives will sneak out of the city."

Gu Fei raised her eyebrows slightly, smiled, and turned away.

Not far away, I saw a notice on the wall in front of me. There were portraits of Duke Qin and his son. The notice said that these people were wanted criminals of the court. If anyone knew their whereabouts, they could inform the government or arrest them. They would be rewarded with 500 taels of silver.

After reading it, Gu Fei turned around and walked into an alley, and teleported to the palace.

After opening the door of the inner room, she saw two boxes on the table outside. When she brought the medicine just now, she specifically told Qin'er to prepare more breakfast.

Gu Fei picked up the two boxes and returned to the Su family's house.

When she entered the house with the boxes, she saw Prime Minister Su sitting by the bed, talking to Su Li on the bed.

Gu Fei's eyes lit up, "Brother Su is awake?"

Prime Minister Su turned around and looked happy, "He woke up after taking the medicine this morning."

Su Li nodded weakly to Gu Fei, "Thank you Miss Gu."

Gu Fei didn't know if the spiritual liquid had worked, so she smiled, "It's just right, I brought food back, so we can get on the boat after eating."
