C211 211 Going out to look for medicine

"Really."

He nodded, holding Liu Ruo Qing's hand, he increased his strength.

Liu Ruo Qing's eyes were a little sore, and her heart was in turmoil. After a while, she finally managed to calm down.

"There's no time to lose, I'll go find those plants first."

She suppressed the throbbing in her heart and spoke with a calm expression.

"Just leave these to the royal doctors!"

"No, Giant Cage Grass and Boat-shaped Aconite Grass are two plants that are not commonly seen. The Imperial Physician can't find them, especially the Giant Cage Grass, which grows on high mountains for thousands of miles. It's not easy to harvest, and it's very likely to encounter danger."

Liu Ruo Qing looked at Yan Yuan and explained: "It's better if I go. I'm familiar with these plants, I'll go outside the city and look around.

After coming to Easternum for the past few months, she had some understanding of the terrain here.

The Easternum was close to the coast and had a mountainous terrain. Here, the mountain was not lacking.

There were also quite a few high mountains at an altitude of a few thousand meters. Although the Giant Cage Grass was grown on a high mountain, it was not a rare plant, so it should not be hard to find.

"As for the ricini, oleander, and white snake root grass, these three plants are quite common. Just ask the imperial physician to send someone to collect them."

Liu Ruo Qing explained as she walked.

"After these few plants are found, Yan Chang will be saved. I'll go back and change into a light set of clothes and immediately leave the city to look for it. "

After returning to the Duke Palaces, Liu Ruo Qing told Xiao Yue to find a few clothes that were not too complicated and were suitable for climbing the mountain.

The moment he opened the door, he saw Yan Yuan standing outside.

"This King will go with you."

"Huh?"

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, a look of surprise sweeping past her eyes.

"I'll need to go out for a few days. It's a small matter like picking herbs, so I don't need to bother you. Don't worry, I'll find her as soon as possible. She won't be delayed."

After being surprised, Liu Ruo Qing rejected Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan had only taken one step forward, his hand was already grabbed by his. "This king said that I will accompany you there."

After what happened last time, would he still dare to let her venture up the mountain alone?

However, when would this woman know of his painstaking efforts?

He was worried about Chang'er's illness. Did she think that he did not care about her safety at all?

"Fine, fine, fine. If you want to go, then go. Why do you need me to treat your sister's illness if you're so afraid that I'll delay it?"

Liu Ruo Qing raised her hand and did not continue any further.

She had thought that the reason why Yan Yuan insisted on accompanying her to pick the herbs was purely because she was too slow and had delayed Yan Chang's treatment. She had never thought that Yan Yuan was purely worried about letting her take the risk on his own.

Yan Yuan was too lazy to explain, the two of them walked out of the east yard together, and the butler had already helped him pack his bags.

"Your Royal Highness, this belongs to you."

"Yes."

After receiving the package from the butler, the two of them left the manor.

Although the Easternum was considered a hilly terrain, there were very few mountains near the Jindu that had an elevation of more than a thousand meters.

He had to leave the mountain forest 500 meters above the capital in order to reach a mountain that was a few thousand meters high.

When the two of them came out, for convenience's sake, they didn't bring any attendants.

Along the way, the two of them rushed outside the city without stopping. When they arrived at the next town, it was already evening.

"Do you two want to eat or live in a restaurant?"

"Residence."

"Sure, please come in."

The waiter enthusiastically greeted the two into the shop. Inside the shop sat a bunch of weird men.

From the moment they entered, their eyes were filled with wariness. Even under such wariness, they were still able to observe a little.

In the process of seeing them, Liu Ruo Qing and Yue Shan were also quietly observing them.

"Esteemed customers, there is only one room left in the store. The two of you …"

The waiter's gaze swept across Liu Ruo Qing and Yan Yuan's bodies in embarrassment.

It was fine if these two were husband and wife, but if they weren't husband and wife …

"No worries. We only need one room."

Yan Yuan spoke out before Liu Ruo Qing could do so.

Liu Ruo Qing frowned, she was about to object, but then she swallowed her words.

It was late in the day, and there were no seats. He had to find another one, and it would be troublesome.

Moreover, it was not the first time Yan Yuan and her were in the same room, so there was nothing to be hypocritical about.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Ruo Qing gave up on this idea.

"Alright, please go upstairs to rest first. This lowly one will arrange some food for the two of you."

The waiter was leading the way, with Liu Ruo Qing and Yue Yang following behind him as they went to the furthest room on the second floor.

"Two guests, please rest here. I will go downstairs to prepare for you."

The waiter was about to pack up and walk out when he was stopped by Liu Ruo Qing, "Second brother."

"What are your orders, sir?"

"I can see that there are quite a few guest rooms. What day is it today? Why are there so many people staying here?"

"To tell you the truth, customer, the guest rooms in the store have all been reserved by the guests downstairs. There are dozens of people in this industry, and they've been staying here for quite a few days."

"Oh?"

Liu Ruo Qing raised her brows, curiosity evident in her eyes.

The waiter had a gossipy personality as well. Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing was interested, she did not rush to leave, and said: "I heard that they are a caravan heading to the Jindu to do business.

"Oh? What doesn't look like it? "

"I can't say for sure what it doesn't look like, but I just don't feel like it."

Liu Ruo Qing was amused by his answer, and did not continue with the gossiping, and said: "Quickly go down and help us prepare some food."

"Alright, customer, please wait a moment. I will go and prepare."

After the waiter left, Liu Ruo Qing sank into deep thought.

Seeing that she did not say a word, Yan Yuan put down his revenge and walked to her side and sat down, then asked: "Why are you so interested in those people downstairs?"

"Hmm?"

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, then laughed: "Nothing much, it's just that the way they looked at us from before made me feel a little disgusted, so I asked them a few more questions."

Since there was nothing much to do while waiting for his meal, Liu Ruo Qing started gossiping with Yan Yuan.

She moved closer to Yan Yuan and whispered, "I also feel that they don't look like merchants."

Hearing that, Yan Yuan raised his eyebrows, and asked: What do you mean?

"I can't say. It just doesn't seem like it."

Liu Ruo Qing shook her head.

Yan Yuan poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of her, then poured himself another cup.

"What?"

Liu Ruo Qing looked up at him curiously.

"Evil Qi."

"Vicious aura?"

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, but following that, she patted her head with a look of enlightenment, "Yes, evil! "I said, they don't look like pure merchants. Their bodies have too much hostility, but more like …"
