On the carriage, several people gathered around a table with a very strange grass on it. Dark green, short and round.

Qingyun poked it with her hand, and the herbs moved. Qingyun touched her chin, looking enigmatic.

"What is this?" Shen Lingfei stared at the herbs on the table.

"A kind of herbal medicine, Yan Siyuan's, is called Penumbra," Qingyun answered his question.

"Oh..., what is it for?"

Qingyun patted his head and said, "Idiot, of course herbs are used to treat diseases."

Shen Lingfei held his head and said aggrievedly: "I know, I just want to ask what disease it treats?".

"Well... I don't know. This is the first time I've seen this kind of herb."

"Ah, it turns out there are herbs in this world that you don't know about."

Qingyun rolled her eyes at him, "I am a doctor, not a miracle doctor. And the world is so big, how can I possibly have seen every herbal medicine?"

Several people were still studying herbal medicines when suddenly a brake came on and they all fell in one direction.

Qingyun pulled Mo Linghuai over, and Shen Lingfei reached out to block Mo Jingchun. This prevented them from hitting the wall of the car.

When the car calmed down, Qingyun opened the curtain angrily. He asked forward: "What's going on? Why did it stop suddenly?"

Yan Siyuan rode up to the carriage and said, "There will be a sudden stop if someone blocks the carriage in front of you."

Qingyun jumped off the carriage and walked to the front. As expected, someone blocked the road ahead. Qing Xiao and Lu Xingci were negotiating.

"What's going on?" Qingyun asked.

"This young master's car broke down, and they are going to Xuanji City, so they want us to take a short trip," Qing Xiao explained.

Qingyun raised her eyes and looked at the young master. There was a little helplessness in his eyebrows, and there were some beads of sweat on the blue forehead. He should be quite anxious.

A small guy followed behind him, and the wheel of the carriage behind him was cracked. It is no longer possible to drive normally.

Qingyun looked familiar to the young master in front of her, but couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

The young master bowed to Qingyun and said, "Your Highness, we meet again."

"Have we met somewhere? And...how do you know my identity?".

The atmosphere began to become dangerous, and Lu Xingci and Qing Xiao looked at him with suspicion.

"Princess, please don't misunderstand me. It was you who saved me in Xiyuan Village. Have you forgotten?"

"Oh~, I remembered. You were the one who took people away from Ximen."

"Yes, Your Majesty, just remember it. It's just that I was there when the Princess interrogated the prefect Qian, so I knew the identity of the Princess."

"I see, you...are going to Xuanji City too?".

"I'm ashamed to say it. My surname is Yuan and my given name is Jinchuan. I am the son of the magistrate of Xuanji City. I went to visit relatives in Silver Moon City and was kidnapped as soon as I arrived at Xiyuan Mountain. Fortunately, I was rescued by Your Highness the Princess."

Qingyun waved her hand indifferently, "By the way, do you want to go back?".

"Yes, there has been no news for many days, and I am thinking about you at home. I am about to arrive, but I didn't expect that the carriage broke down halfway. I hope your highness, the princess, can take care of me." He bowed to Qingyun again.

Several people around him also understood the process. Next we have to see how Qingyun decides.

"There is no problem with taking along, but we don't have enough carriages, so we have to force Mr. Yuan to squeeze into a carriage with the patient. I wonder if Mr. Yuan is willing?"

"Of course, we are in a hurry to go back. As long as the princess is willing to take her with us, it doesn't matter where we go." It can be seen that Yuan Jinchuan is very happy.

Shen Lingfei led him towards the carriage behind.

"Wait a minute," Qingyun said.

Yuan Jinchuan stopped and turned to Qingyun, waiting for her to speak.

"After entering the city, I asked Mr. Yuan to conceal his identity. We were just passing by and didn't want to be too conspicuous."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I'm in Xia Province."

Qingyun then let him get on the carriage. Several people continued on their way.

Mo Linghuai asked worriedly: "Xue'er, is what he said true?".

"It's true. The prefect of Xuanji City is a woman, and she was also the original lord of Xuanji City. She has a son and two daughters, and Yuan Jinchuan is indeed her child."

"Female magistrate, there is such a powerful woman in the world." Mo Jingchun was a little surprised.

Mo Linghuai snorted, "It is indeed very powerful. Tianyuan has never set limits for women, especially in the officialdom. It's just that the ideas of the previous dynasty have not changed, and no one is willing to try."

Mo Jingchun asked curiously: "Since the previous dynasty did not allow women to enter the court, how did Yuan Zhifu become the prefect?".

"She didn't enter the court at all, but captured Xuanji City and became the lord of the city herself.

His former Majesty was obsessed with pleasure and didn't care about this city at all, so he didn't care about her.

After the founding of the Tianyuan Kingdom, Yuan Menglin negotiated with His Majesty. She continues to be the prefect of Xuanji City and will never change her position, otherwise she will not repay Xuanji City. Your Majesty saw that she managed Xuanji City very well, so he agreed."

"You are really a hero among women," Mo Jingchun exclaimed.

Qingyun didn't express emotion. She once marveled at Bian Guanyue's great achievements, but in the end she realized that she had misjudged the person. So she doesn't dare to make a decision now.

Although when she first heard about Yuan Menglin's deeds, she silently admired her courage and wisdom. But no longer expressed.

The sky gradually darkened, and the moon and stars were blocked by dark clouds. The rain came suddenly and violently, making it inevitable for people to avoid it.

Several people had no choice but to find a ruined temple and take shelter from the rain.

It was only a dozen meters from the carriage to the temple, but the rain was so heavy that several people still got wet. Especially the few people who were looking for a place to take shelter from the rain were immediately soaked in the cold.

Qingyun took out the huozhezi and lit the bonfire. Turn around and see the Buddha statue behind you. It was a Bodhisattva. Qingyun bowed before her to show her respect.

Several people changed into dry clothes and gathered around the fire. Qingyun glanced at Yuan Jinchuan, who was shivering and hiding in the corner.

"Mr. Yuan, did you bring extra clothes?"

"We were in a hurry to leave, but we didn't take it with us." Yuan Jinchuan shrank his neck, and water drops continued to fall from his hair.

Qingyun frowned and turned to look at the other people, "Which of you has extra clothes?"

Qing Xiao and Yan Siyuan shook their heads decisively. Shen Lingfei raised his hand cautiously, "I have it, but...I'm afraid it doesn't fit well."

"It's okay, Your Highness, it's just a little wet. It will dry up after a while." But he sneezed after saying this.

"You can't do this, you'll get a fever." Mo Jingchun looked at Lu Xingci, "I remember you still have clothes, please lend one to Young Master Yuan."

Lu Xingci pointed at himself with wide eyes, "Me?"

"Yeah, it's not you or who else."

"No, he already said it, no need, why bother?" He never thought that it would eventually happen to him.

"It's so cold. You'll get sick if you keep wearing wet clothes." Mo Jingchun pinched his waist.

"Miss Mo, please don't be angry. If Mr. Lu doesn't want to borrow it, forget it. Yuan will be fine." Then he sneezed twice more.
