Prince Xu's Mansion

Nangong Xu looked at the news sent back by the goshawk and couldn't recover for a long time.

"Ali……"

The letter was sent back by Goshawk from the Xunyang faction. It clearly stated the final results of the two people's discussions from leaving the palace, to being in danger in Licheng, to Liangzhou.

"Xunjian, you immediately deploy your manpower to Wucheng to assist the princess and Xunyang. You must bring them back to the king no matter what. Anyone who stands in the way will be killed without mercy!"

Nangong Xu's eyes were scarlet, and the veins on the hand holding the letter were bulging. Although he had tried hard to calm down his inner emotions, there was still a hint of sweetness in his mouth...

"My lord..."

"My lord..."

Xunyu stepped forward to support the dangling Nangongxu, while Xunjian took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a blood-red pill for Nangongxu to take.

"Your Majesty, girl...the princess told you before she left that you need to rest calmly. Such emotional fluctuations are not conducive to your physical recovery. You can't let the princess' previous efforts be in vain."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Princess went out to collect medicine this time for your health. You can't ruin the Princess's affection like this, right?"

Xun Jian and Xun Yang sang harmoniously to soothe Nangong Xu's emotions.

Looking at Nangong Xu, whose eyes were clear, they knew that the prince had listened to their words. This was a good thing. It seemed that they would have to hold the future princess's thigh tightly in the future.

"Xunjian, go make arrangements and let our people rush over as quickly as possible."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the arrangements have been made. The people who were sent to follow you should have arrived. They will protect the princess..."

"Help me to rest."

Nangong Xu lay quietly on the bed, with the simple word "good" that Dongfang Li returned to him in his mind.

Yes, Xunyang included the note from the previous brochure in Goshawk's letter.

"Princess Xu is the only one who owns Dongfang Li! Okay!"

The word "good" written in small regular script on a small hairpin became the best medicine to appease Nangong Xu.

On the other side, Wucheng.

Dongfang Li is being rounded up.

Five days ago, Dongfang Li and Xunyang set out from Liangzhou to Wucheng. As expected, they met many people who were also rushing to Wucheng.

From their conversation, Dongfang Li learned that most of them came for the Dragon Scale Grass, while a few came to see the excitement and gain experience.

"Sir, now that so many people are competing for the Dragon Scale Grass, our chances of winning seem to be slim..."

Xunyang looked worriedly at the group of people gathered not far away.

"They are discussing forming an alliance together. They want to sell the dragon scale grass at a high price and distribute the money equally... The bearded one doesn't agree..."

Dongfang Li stared at the group of people gathered together, explaining to Xunyang while watching.

"Son..."

Xunyang looked at Dongfang Li in disbelief. From such a long distance, he thought his hearing was already very good, but he still couldn't hear what the other party said. However, Dongfang Li seemed to be able to clearly...see?

"I know some lip reading." You guessed it right.

Dongfang Li directly gave Xunyang a positive answer.

"..."

How does it feel to have a future princess who can do everything? Xunyang felt it deeply at this moment.

"Okay, they haven't reached an agreement, let's go, meet up with our people, and find a chance to see whether the Dragon Scale Grass is genuine or not."

……

A forest in Wucheng

"I have seen the Oriental girl..."

"No need to be polite, time is urgent, let's talk about the situation here first."

Dongfang Li went straight to the topic without any pretense in his greetings.

"We found a millennium cold pool here. On the wall of the cold pool, we found a grass that was very similar to what the girl described before. We don't dare to act rashly. More and more people have come here recently. We have solved it. A lot of people trying to get closer."

A man in the lead briefly introduced their previous situation.

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's find an opportunity tomorrow to spread the news about you. The plant you saw is not dragon scale grass, but Hanxi grass. Dragon scale grass only lives in the soil, and it absolutely cannot be on the wall of Hantan. But since there is a cold pool, dragon scale grass should appear around it, let’s take a short break and go look around the cold pool.”

Dongfang Liguang heard about the location where "Dragon Scale Grass" grew, and knew that what they saw was not the real Dragon Scale Grass. But as she just said, since there is a thousand-year cold pond here, the probability of Dragon Scale Grass appearing Very big.

"Yes, we will spread the news early tomorrow morning."

Although it was a pity that what they found was not Dragon Scale Grass, fortunately there was still a chance, so they only hesitated for a moment before adjusting their status.

"As expected of Prince Xu's subordinates."

Dongfang Li looked at their state and couldn't help but admire Nangong Xu.

After the news spread, a large number of people swarmed towards the location of Hantan. They did not notice that a group of people was heading in the opposite direction to them.

Dragon scale grass likes darkness and humidity, and the chances are obviously higher in places with the heaviest moisture in the air.

Dongfang Li and his group of eight kept changing directions according to the humidity in the air.

"The front is the place with the heaviest moisture. Let's take a closer look around. We would rather find mistakes than miss them."

"Yes."

A group of eight people spread out in all directions and moved forward in eight directions: east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest.

About a quarter of an hour later, Dongfang Li suddenly smelled a faint bitter smell in the air. She was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily.

Dongfang Li made a gesture in the air, and the other seven people quickly approached and surrounded her in the center.

"About 50 meters in front of you on the left is what we are looking for. Let's take a break and replenish our strength. I will be responsible for collecting the medicine in a while. Xunyang will follow me. You are responsible for paying attention to the surroundings. After collecting the medicine, I will give it to Xunyang. Xunyang, you have to leave here as soon as you get it. If someone intercepts you on the way, don’t fight, remember?"

"My subordinates think it is inappropriate. The herb is so rare. There may be other things around it...or the medicine itself may be harmful when picking the medicine."

The man who had previously discovered the place objected.

"Girl, Lu Yi is right, we can't let you take risks."

Xunyang echoed in a low voice from the side.

"There is no need to dispute this matter. Only I can get close to it, otherwise I would not come here in person."

While they were discussing in low voices, Dongfang Li discovered that a group of people were cautiously approaching the direction of the Dragon Scale Grass, and a woman in white clothes in their team was heavily protected in the middle.

"This dragon scale grass is not easy to pick..."

Dongfang Li motioned for everyone to look not far away. He pulled out the dagger from his boot and was ready to fight at any time.

The closer they got to the dragon scale grass, the more obvious the bitter taste became. In the half-high grass, Dongfang Li and the others quietly looked at the group of people approaching slowly.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd started to gag, and some even started to vomit. The woman in white scolded them loudly.

"Trash, you can't bear this smell, what do I want from you, princess..."

The woman in white looked at the dragon scale grass in front of her and directed the maid beside her to collect the medicine.

"You, go over and collect the medicine."

"Yes, princess."

The maid in gray clothes resisted the discomfort in her stomach and approached. Just when she thought she could collect the medicine immediately, she found that her mouth was slightly numb and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Princess, I can't move this slave..."
