Chapter 799: Hurrying on the Road, Resting in the Bamboo Forest
The man in dark clothes glanced at everyone and pointed to a few people dressed as warriors.
"Go and keep watch on the surrounding area."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Several people quickly appeared and separated in all directions.
Wei Song ordered his personal guards to settle the horses and walked over.
"Your Majesty, you should take a rest as well. I will be on duty here."
"It's okay." Ye Xiaohan shook his head slightly and looked around.
The dense bamboo forest and winding paths are rarely visited by people. However, they should not be careless. They left the capital this time to hide it from the emperor, the empress, the fifth prince, the third prince and other people from different factions.
They left the city gate last night and traveled all night. It was not until long after dawn that Ye Xiaohan's team began to rest.
Ye Xiaohan lifted the gauze on his veil, revealing a pair of deep eyes.
"After resting for two hours, we will continue on our journey."
"Yes." Wei Song nodded and immediately passed the order on.
Ye Xiaohan tied his Red Hare under a tree, then took light steps and flew to the crown of another tree.
He had to complete the task as soon as possible, otherwise he would not be able to feel completely at ease knowing that Yun Mujiu was alone in the capital.
Reason told him that Yun Mujiu was capable of protecting himself, and that the Night Palace also had the secret guards and personal guards he left behind to protect Yun Mujiu. But emotionally, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Yun Mujiu's wings are not yet fully grown, and the capital city is full of dangers both overt and covert. The people of the Yewang Mansion are destined to survive in the turbulent storm.
Ye Xiaohan did not completely relax his vigilance. Even when he closed his eyes to rest, his brain was still slightly tense.
He could travel for several days without rest, but his personal guards and secret guards could not. Their martial arts skills were inferior to his, and they could not withstand such high-intensity travel work.
Two hours passed quickly, and Ye Xiaohan seemed not to have fallen asleep. When he opened his eyes, they were clear, without a trace of fatigue.
He leaned against a thick branch and looked towards the exit of the bamboo forest. Not far away, he heard the sound of horse hooves, and then it stopped.
A figure quickly moved among the bamboos, then jumped in one step and landed next to Ye Xiaohan's bright brown Red Hare.
Ye Xiaohan flew up and landed in front of the man.
"Yingyi, what news has come from the north?"
"Your Highness, I have just received news from our people. It has been confirmed that the group of people suspected to be from the Eastern Empire have been wandering around the three counties recently." Ying Yi's face was tense, and he took out the note from his arms and handed it over.
Ye Xiaohan glanced at the contents on the paper and knew they were the three counties.
He waved his hand and said in a cold voice: "Gather and follow me!"
The guards gathered together and cleared away all traces of their presence.
Ye Xiaohan held the reins with his left hand, bent his left leg slightly, and gave a light push. In the blink of an eye, he was sitting steadily on the horse's back.
"Set off."
...
At the Night Palace, Yun Mujiu collected the remaining colorful Ganoderma lucidum and placed it safely in the medicine room.
After Butler Zeng finished chasing Wei Bai, Yun Mujiu took Butler Zeng's pulse again and found that there was a big difference in Butler Zeng's pulse before and after taking Lingzhi and applying it externally, which shows that good medicine is indeed very effective.
Although she couldn't grow such a good Ganoderma, she could try to cultivate herbs with similar effects. There were more ordinary patients in the world than those who needed quite rare medicines.
Therefore, once she is able to successfully grow some precious medicinal herbs on a large scale using a special cultivation method, the medical contribution she will make to the world will undoubtedly be enormous.
As a result, the mission she brought with her doctor system to this different world was better fulfilled and practiced.
Yun Mujiu had successfully finished treating the Queen Mother, and now the Emperor and his men could not find a reason to summon her into the palace. Moreover, the Emperor had just forced her into the palace a few days ago, so it would definitely not be a good idea to invite her again in such a short period of time.
Yun Mujiu thought of his grandfather, and fetched some good herbal bags from the doctor system, which could be used specifically for bathing his grandfather, which would be beneficial to his health.
Thinking of Meng Ninglang's face that was as red as blood, he quickly took out a few bottles of Liuwei Dihuang Pills from the doctor's system, hoping that it would be effective for Meng Ninglang's physical weakness.
Before leaving, Yun Mujiu met Wei Bai who was returning home.
Wei Bai received news from the palace that Concubine Liang had gone to see the Emperor again in a high-profile manner early this morning, and kept saying that she was feeling a little weak, perhaps because she missed her son too much.
Yesterday, after being reminded by Concubine Liang, the Emperor had already discovered why Prince Di had not returned to the capital for so long. The Emperor immediately sent a messenger to the Northern Territory to find out what was going on.
Today, Concubine Liang urged again secretly, and the Emperor sent more people to see if Prince Di encountered any trouble in the northern border or on the way back to the capital.
Yun Mujiu smiled faintly when he heard this.
"Isn't Concubine Liang a model of gentleness and calmness among the concubines in the palace? Why is she so restless?"
"Princess, those are just legends. Most of the concubines in the palace are not as good as they seem. I heard that each of them has hundreds of minds."
Yun Mujiu glanced at Fu Qian and teased Wei Bai, "Wei Bai, how did you know that?"
Didn't housekeeper Zeng say that Wei Bo rarely interacted with women? He spent the whole day talking about business with a bunch of men.
"Princess, of course I understand. There is a connection between the harem and the court. Those concubines basically have family members serving as officials in the court. I work for the prince, so naturally I know what the families of those officials are like." Wei Bai didn't hear Yun Mujiu's joke and replied in a serious tone.
Yun Mujiu pursed his lips and smiled, "I see. Since you understand the harem, do you understand my little herbal hall?"
"Huh?" Wei Bo was stunned, then said seriously: "I often deal with people from Herb Hall, so I naturally understand."
"Then do you know what Fu Qian likes?"
"Of course I like studying medicine, seeing patients, and developing Chinese herbal skin care products..." Wei Bai blurted out a bunch of words, but before he could finish the rest of the words, he saw Yun Mujiu's teasing eyes and quickly covered his mouth.
What nonsense is he talking about? Why did he tell the princess everything?
Fu Qian was slightly startled, and said seriously: "I didn't expect that Master Wei actually knows me."
Wei Bo smiled dryly, "I am a wise man, and I understand the preferences and characteristics of the people around me to some extent."
Fu Qian didn't think much about it and just assumed that Wei Bai was someone who was very familiar with the Ye Palace.
Yun Mujiu said "Oh" and stopped teasing Wei Bo. He sighed in his heart: Interesting, interesting... One knows a little bit, and the other knows nothing, it's really an interesting combination. It turns out that it's such a sweet feeling to secretly poke at those couples who haven't been together yet.
Yun Mujiu looked serious and talked about serious matters.
"The prince told me that Prince Di will really be returning to the capital in the next few days."
Wei Bai was solemn, his eyes tensed. Prince Di's return to the capital might bring trouble to Prince Ye's Palace again...
