Soon, Yishaguli walked into the hall.

At the emperor's instruction, everyone in the hall had taken their seats and left a space so that the emperor could clearly see the princess's appearance.

Yishaguli knelt down in front of the dragon bed and performed the standard Han etiquette: "I am Yishaguli from Xidi, I meet His Majesty the Emperor. I wish His Majesty good health and a long life."

"Stand up and take a seat," said the emperor.

He looked at Yishaguli. She was wearing a veil and had no intention of taking it off. But judging from her profile, she was a beauty.

"You brought me the magic medicine." The emperor's tone was much softer. He could feel that his body was getting better, so the medicine must be good.

"This is King Tutan's will. I am just following his orders." Yishaguli said, "My king will be happy to see that Your Majesty is in good health."

"You speak Chinese very well," the emperor said. "You have also done a great job in escorting the convoy. I will reward you. What do you want?"

He did not specify whether it was a reward of marriage status or something else, just waiting for Ishaguli to make her own request.

Ishaguli said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. I am not in a hurry to receive the reward, because there is another piece of news that King Tuertan wants to tell Your Majesty in secret."

"Oh?" The emperor's eyes narrowed.

"This is a serious matter. Only His Majesty the Emperor can hear the news. There are too many people here," said Yishaguli.

"Do you want your father to be alone with you?" Qin Zhaoyue said.

"This is a serious matter," Yishaguli repeated.

"The banquet is not over yet, you all should go back first," said the emperor.

"Father!" Qin Zhaoyue frowned.

"It's okay, Yishaguli, I trust her," said the emperor.

Naturally, the ministers had nothing to say. Since Xidi had offered medicine to save the emperor, he would naturally not attempt any assassination at this juncture. It seemed that Xidi wanted to take the opportunity to gain some benefits.

If Bei Qin just accepted the thousand-year-old magical medicine without any hesitation, he would be considered stingy.

Qin Zhaoyue and the Queen were no exception, and the crowd all left the palace. Wu Ye followed at the end of the group, looking very worried. Qin Zhaoyue saw him, but couldn't say anything to him right away.

Too many people.

……

After everyone in the bedroom had left, the emperor said to Yishaguli, "Go ahead."

Yishaguli looked at Chen Shuo beside him.

"These two eunuchs are my confidants, there is no need to worry," said the emperor.

If the undercover agent could sit in such an important position beside him, he would have given up his job as emperor long ago.

Yishaguli then said: "This magical medicine was not donated by my king Tuertan alone."

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows with interest.

"I just explained to Your Majesty that this medicine is a national treasure of the Western Di and Western Hu. It was produced before the two countries separated. Therefore, the matter of taking the medicine is not something that my king can decide alone."

"What do you mean?" the emperor looked at her.

"Two things," Yishaguli said, "Xihu asked King Tuertan to exchange a fertile pasture in the northwest for half of the magic medicine, and to send people into the city to ask for some compensation from His Majesty the Emperor."

"Another thing is the main effect of this magic medicine. King Turttan asked me to explain it to His Majesty the Emperor." Yishaguli said.

"Have the Western Hu people entered the city?" This is what the emperor was most concerned about.

"Yes, there are two of them. They are descendants of the Western Hu nobles." said Yishaguli.

When the emperor heard this, he felt a little relieved.

"What does the magic medicine do?" he asked.

"The magic medicine is not a cure for all diseases. It can only compensate for the damage caused by physical fatigue, and the effect will not be so fast. Ishaguli heard from the guide that His Majesty woke up quickly after taking the medicine. Is it true?"

"That's right," said the emperor.

Yishaguli seemed to sigh slightly.

"The most important function of the magic medicine is to detoxify a strange poison from the northwest grasslands." She said, "This poison is colorless and tasteless, and it takes effect slowly. On the surface, it looks like excessive fatigue, gradual depletion, and finally death quietly. After this magic medicine detoxifies, it's like taking some tonic, and slowly getting better."

"This is the poison used by the Western Hu nobles in the past when they were fighting for power." Yishaguli said, "Because of its characteristics, it is not easy to be discovered."

The emperor's face gradually darkened.

"Your Majesty, after hearing the news that Your Majesty woke up soon, Ishaguli understood why King Tuertan agreed to bring the Western Hu people into Luoyang to meet Your Majesty."

"Xihu? Is this matter related to Xihu?" the emperor said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask the two people from Xihu?" Yishaguli smiled.

……

"Look, that's the city wall of Luoyang." Gu Yue looked at the majestic outline of the ancient city in the distance, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

It hasn’t been too long since I left here, but it feels like it was a lifetime ago.

Chen Song smiled and said, "There are many new things in Luoyang City. Master Fox Fairy can take a good look around. People are very good at thinking of new and interesting things."

"I deeply understand that." Gu Yue nodded.

On the way, Gu Yue walked and Chen Song rode a horse. Later, Chen Song recovered from his injury and Gu Yue rode a horse while Chen Song walked. Chen Song was quite skilled. In Gu Yue's opinion, he was not as good as those people from Wumen, but he was good enough for traveling.

"You have been avoiding Zhendian all the way. Now that you are in Luoyang, why do you dare to enter the city again?" Gu Yue asked with a smile.

"Haha... Isn't the wound on your body almost healed?" Chen Song touched his head and smiled, "Master Fox Fairy helped me so much, I really can't repay you enough."

It’s not that he doesn’t believe in this fox fairy, but his identity is important and it’s hard to expose it.

"It's okay, just some silver." Gu Yue waved his hand.

The official road near Luoyang City was very busy. A large team was coming in front of them. There were dozens of carriages loaded with things. There were many guards around the team who looked murderous and were all wearing swords.

Gu Yue inexplicably felt that this team of people did not seem to be delivering goods, but rather moving. Looking at the car, there were furniture, clothes and everything else. Perhaps because they had been staring at it for too long, the guards nearby all cast a wary look at him. Gu Yue smiled awkwardly and hurriedly led the horse to walk a few steps faster.

Just half a cup of tea after passing by the carriage in the team, the person sitting in the carriage seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Yue's back.

Gu Yue was talking to Chen Song with his face turned sideways.

The man stared blankly for a while, then suddenly jumped off the carriage and ran over. A guard holding a knife in the carriage didn't even have time to stop him.

The man came in front of Gu Yue and grabbed his sleeve in a somewhat rude manner. The two looked at each other, and when their eyes met, they both froze in their places.
