Faintly seeing the familiar "Feng" character on the Commander Flag, Feng Ning Yan's eyes couldn't help but feel hot. She ordered the carriage to stop and mounted her horse, whipping her way to the city gate tower.
It was too dark for the soldiers to recognize her as they approached. They immediately issued a warning.
Feng Ningyan took out her identity token and threw it towards the person wearing the deputy general uniform at the other side of the barricade. She shouted, "Send a message to the general. Someone is about to pass!"
At this time, the deputy general who was guarding the city heard Feng Ning Yan's voice and hurriedly put away her order badge and ordered people to move away from the road.
Feng Ning Yan turned her head to welcome Shen Ling Jue and co., and said to him: "I want to go see father first. Thirty kilometers away is the Southern Yong Pass, the southernmost pass of the Great Moon. You must personally write a pass for your father to enter and exit it. "
Shen Ling Jue said: "I'll go with you."
Feng Ningyan shook her head, "No need. Although the Southern Ning Army rules the army strictly, we cannot guarantee that there will be no traitors. As soon as possible, His Highness will lead them through, and the longer they stay, the more danger they would be seen through. "
Shen Lingjue had no choice but to obey him and bring Jingqi through the dragon's teeth.
Just as Feng Ningyan ascended to the city gate tower, Feng Wei walked out from inside. Seeing that his daughter was in good spirits, he felt slightly relieved.
"Yan'Er, your Fourth Aunt sent someone to deliver a letter a few days ago saying that you were poisoned in the courtyard. It was the Du Clan's doing …" How are you now? Has the poison been cured? "
Feng Ningyan smiled and said, "Daddy, don't worry. The poison has already been cured."
Feng Wei had the assistant general by his side hand over the handout to Feng Ning Yan: "Yan'Er, since you have a secret mission this time, father can't send troops to protect you. Everything will depend on you."
"Daughter will be careful."
Feng Wei let out a sigh, "Your secret passage is not something that can be compared to two armies fighting each other. Once we go to the depths of the enemy kingdom, there will be many people who want to take the head of our father and daughter. "
"Dad, they were all defeated by me, do I have to be afraid of them?" Feng Ning Yan said heroically.
Feng Wei couldn't help but smile and nod his head. When he thought about Shen Ling Jue, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Although you are Princess Yu's wife, you are also a descendant of the Feng family. It is your duty to take good care of your husband, and protecting the prince is your responsibility."
Feng Ning Yan couldn't help but dig her ears out, "Enough, Father! "I'll definitely take the lead and not let His Highness Prince Yu lose a single strand of hair, okay?"
Feng Wei tightly held onto Feng Ningyan's hand and silently nodded. In his heart, however, he was extremely reluctant.
"Yan'Er, you've suffered enough since you were young. Even though you've married the emperor's most beloved prince, you still haven't been able to live a happy and happy life like other girls. You still have to suffer bitterly, even going to the Southern Wilderness. As your father, I want you to protect your husband …"
"Father …" However, Feng Ningyan lightly smiled. "Even if he isn't my husband, I will still inherit the Feng family's loyalty and bravery. I will do everything in my power to support him." Your daughter has never been someone who covets peace and quiet. You don't have to feel sorry for her. "
"So …" King Yu has the ambition to become the next monarch? "
Feng Wei never thought that the Shen Ling Jue who had been indifferent to fame and fortune for so many years, would actually want to fight for it now.
Feng Ning Yan kept the pass announcement and said softly, "He doesn't fight for it, don't tell me he wants to hand over the people of this world to that cruel and greedy trash, Shen Di? Prince Cheng also wanted to ascend the throne, but he wasn't a good person either. "Dad, the one who's going to be loyal in Ningnan County must be an enlightened ruler. Your daughter knows that you don't want to use your army to mess up the situation and control the situation, but there are people in the capital who want to eliminate us quickly. We can't just sit idly and wait for death."
When Feng Wei heard Feng Ningyan's words, he was incomparably shocked.
In the short span of a month, he did not know what Feng Ningyan had experienced, but his daughter had never recklessly come to a conclusion without any proof.
As for the Feng Clan and the Yuwang clan, they were inseparable from each other. Naturally, the political enemies of King Yu would view the Feng Clan as a huge stumbling block.
"Understood." Feng Wei said with a grave expression, "You should handle the matters of the Southern Wilderness with peace of mind. Father will seize the opportunity to train more troops, strengthen the military, and act as a backstop for you and His Highness. "A hundred thousand soldiers of the Southern Ning Army are waiting for you and Prince Yu's triumphant return!"
Feng Ningyan nodded, opened her arms to hug her father, turned around and walked down from the city gate tower, and quickly caught up with Shen Lingjue.
With Feng Wei's passing message, the caravan passed without any problems in the Southern Yong Pass.
At dawn the next day, they had already entered the southern border.
The market of Fringe City was bustling with noise and excitement. As long as a merchant entered the market, he would always meet local people who were pulling business.
After Jing Qi and Chu Zhao went to investigate, they booked an inn that was relatively close to the market.
The shopkeeper saw that this group of people seemed to be in high spirits. It seemed like they were in a big business. He hurriedly went up and personally greeted them.
Shen Ling Jue is the Young Master, so naturally he sits upright and upright. His own noble aura doesn't need to be faked.
As a head storekeeper, Feng Ning Yan was a laborer. She wanted to inquire about the nearby medicine market and the local medicine market, pretend to be a rich merchant who was purchasing medicinal herbs without restraint, and pretend to bring servants to the market to take a look.
However, after going out for a walk, she had a great harvest.
During lunch time, Shen Ling, Feng Ning Yan, Jing Qi, Chu Zhao, and Ah Yao were having lunch together in the room. In reality, it was a secret meeting.
Feng Ningyan said in a low voice, "There's a big herb store here that has Miao Ren. The shop in this market is called Yun An's Medicine Shop, and the doctor in the shop is also Miao Ren." If you want to see the sample, you can go to their warehouse tomorrow and check it out. I said that we needed to discuss long-term business. The shopkeeper said that they wouldn't see the boss even once every ten days for half a month because the owner lived in the village and collected the medicine. "
Jing Qi smiled and said, "Then that will give us a reason to enter Miao Village."
Shen Ling Jue immediately said, "Alright, after lunch, we'll go to the warehouse to check. When the time comes, we'll say that we don't have enough goods and we won't agree on the price. Then, we'll naturally go to Miao stronghold."
Hearing that, Nan Gong Xing Yao immediately asked: "Enter the Miao Village? "What are you guys doing in Miao Village?"
Feng Ning Yan said, "Because we're looking for the source of the insect poison."
"Gu poison?!" Hearing that, Nangong Xing Yao felt goosebumps all over his body, "Then wouldn't we have to deal with the witch doctors? Their homes are so scary, you don't even know where the Gu worms are hiding … "
At this moment, Jing Qi took out a small wooden box and placed it on the table before opening it, "It's this kind of Gu worm."
This was a Gu that he collected when the killer Gu poison broke out of the Thousand Blessings Pavilion. Its entire body was as red as coral and there were fluffy tentacles on both sides of its stomach.
Nangong Xing Yao jumped three feet away in fright and hid behind Feng Ning Yan.
"It's so scary! Hurry and take it away! "
Feng Ning Yan resisted the urge to vomit and looked carefully at the Gu worm. She quickly told Jing Qi to close the box.
After seeing Jing Qi pull the Gu worm back into his bosom, Nangong Xingyao returned to her seat. She was in a daze.
Feng Ningyan noticed that her reaction was a bit excessive, so she asked, "Ah Yao, have you always been afraid of bugs?"
Nangong Xingyao shook his head, "I only... "What kind of people do they look like after seeing the Gu poison act up? That's why they're scared …"
