"When we were still at the border camp, didn't you feed Shangguan Yi the pills I made for you? "It was originally meant to be a life-saving medicine and could suppress the cold poison in your body. The Bloody Grass only grows in the marshes and in those parts of the Southern Wilderness, so …"

Mu Xuanyin said half of her sentence and then looked at Hua Mu Jin's expression. Seeing that she didn't seem to be angry anymore, she continued to speak.

"Shangguan Yi felt guilty that you'd given him the medicine after he found out you had the cold poison in your body, so he said that after the fight, he'd go to the Southern Wilderness to find the Bloody Grass and suppress the cold poison in your body."

What Mu Xuanyin said was actually not the whole story.

After all, at that time, Shangguan Yi had made up her mind to find the Bloody Grass, and he was the one who started the fight.

However, he did not intend to let Hua Mu Jin know about this.

"Why didn't you tell me he went to look for the Bloody Grass?" The reason you guys didn't tell me about it, is it because it's very dangerous to find this Bloody Grass, right? "

If the matter of finding the Bloody Grass wasn't too dangerous, Hua Mujiao felt that this battle had already been told to her.

Even if he didn't use his knowledge from the battle, Shangguan Yi's 250 years old would still show off in front of her, saying that he had gone to find some bloody grass for her, and he should thank him well and remember his great kindness.

In any case, Hua Mu Jin knew that this trip to find the Bloody Grass must have been particularly dangerous.

"Cough, that, although it's dangerous, it's actually not that dangerous either. It's just that, in that swamp where the Bloody Grass grows, there lives a group of cute fierce beasts. That's all."

"…"

Mu Xuanyin's reply almost made Hua Mujiao spit out blood.

Even the nearby Mu Yu Ze couldn't stand it any longer and rolled his eyes at him.

Lovely berserk beasts? Or in the swamp?

"Then, did you just say that he returned in time to deliver the medicine, meaning that he didn't encounter any danger and would return very soon?"

No matter where this bloody grass grew, or whether or not there were some vicious wild beasts living in it, Hibiscus vulgaris did not care.

What she was concerned about was whether Shangguan Yi was safe and sound, and if she was on her way back.

"Not too bad. He sent me a letter saying that he got the Bloody Grass and is on his way back."

After hearing Mu Xuanyin's words, Hua Mujiao was finally relieved.

However, Mu Xuanli didn't tell Hua Mu Jin that Shangguan Yi had actually been severely injured.

"That's good then. For the time being, I won't blame you for hiding this from me." Oh right, you guys came to my Gesun Palace so early in the morning, are you really that free? Logically speaking, as the Crown Prince and First Prince of the Southern Kingdoms, shouldn't you have come to Huan Yue and received a large number of courting ministers? "

The Southern Kingdom was one of the biggest trading nations. Even if those ministers hadn't come to fawn on the two great buddhas for the sake of Huan Yue, some of them would probably come to them to discuss the way of doing business for their own benefits.

After all, as an official, if one wasn't greedy, they wouldn't have much of an income.

As for these officials, they were secretly running a variety of shops, ranging from big to small.

This was the public secret of Huan Yue.

"Yes, there are a few ministers who came to the house of the Marquis early in the morning without even going to the imperial court to look for them. But how could this prince be free to care about them?" So he pushed it. However, it's very strange. The two of us stayed at the house of the Marquis last night, but the Marquis didn't come back for the entire night. "

"I met him this morning."

Mu Yuze had just finished speaking when Mu Xuanyin answered.

Bai Yan didn't return to the house of the Marquis?

Hua Mujiao didn't think it was strange. After all, he ran a brothel. If he was lonely, it wouldn't be strange for him to stay there for the night.

"Have you seen him? When did I not see that? "

Mu Xuanyin had woken up earlier than Mu Yuze. When Mu Xuanyin had just woken up, she had coincidentally met with Bai Yan, who had just returned to the manor. The two of them simply smiled at each other and didn't say anything.

"With just you? "If I do not call you, I'm afraid you will have to sleep for quite a few hours."

After travelling for more than ten days, Mu Yu Ze was already exhausted. Yesterday he went to the house of the Marquis and slept on the bed. At this moment, just thinking about it made him feel comfortable.

However, he still felt that he didn't sleep comfortably.

"You're up early, but isn't that because you want to see the little girl Jin Jin earlier? Do you think I don't know?"

Mu Yuze glanced at Mu Xuanyin, and the Mu Xuanyin, who had been completely exposed by Mu Yu Ze, immediately gave him a supercilious look.

When she was in the Southern Kingdom, Mu Jin, Mu Yuze, and Mu Xuanyin had almost no time to spend together, so she had no idea that these two brothers were actually having an argument.

Just like how she kept up with Shangguan Yi, she would pinch the moment she saw her.

"The news of your visit to the Southern Kingdom has already been spread out. I think the Empress Dowager will definitely not be able to sit still and have lost a chance to get rid of me and my trusted aides for nothing. I wonder if she slept last night."

"I don't know if she's asleep or not, but Your Highness's sleep is very comfortable."

Although she hadn't seen the empress dowager before, the fact that the empress dowager could be ruthless towards Hibiscus Blossom caused Mu Yuze to feel extremely unhappy. Naturally, she held a grudge against the empress dowager she had met.

"Even if she can sit, that's not necessarily true. We can also sit!"

Mu Xuanyin's words caused Hua Mujiao to be at a loss. But from the looks of it, he didn't seem to want to take the initiative to cause trouble for the empress dowager.

"Royal Uncle, don't tell me you want to find trouble with her and vent your anger on me?"

"Exhaust? Hmph, how can a simple breath dispel our hatred? Little girl, you are a treasure that our Southern Kingdom has in our hands. From the moment she attacked you, the entire Southern Kingdom had already become her opponent. "

Mu Yuze snorted coldly. From the looks of it, she wanted to completely defeat the empress dowager.

Being able to receive such protection from Mu Yuze and Mu Xuanyin, an indescribable warmth came from Hua Mu Jin's heart, and the warmth of her family. Ever since she came to this foreign world, she had felt a lot.

Although he did not have parents' love, but with these, it was enough.

"Little Royal Uncle, Eldest Royal Uncle, I'm glad to have you two around!"

Hua Mujiao stood up and walked behind the two of them, placing her hand on their shoulders, looking especially harmonious.

However, in the next second, a voice broke the harmony.

"What are you doing?"

At the entrance, Bai Zhan Ke stood there with a darkened face. His eyes fell on the hands of Hua Mu Jin, who was resting on Mu Yuze and Mu Xuanyin's shoulders.

"Nothing, nothing."

Seeing Bai Zhan Ke, Hua Mujiao hurriedly withdrew her hand, feeling that she had been caught in the dark.

"Jin'er, come over."

"Oh."

Hua Mujie was quite surprised. When Bai Zhan Ke called for her to come over, she eagerly walked over.

After that, Bai Zhan Ke grabbed her waist and tightly hugged her, as if he was swearing his vow of sovereignty to Mu Xuanli and Mu Yuze.

"The morning assembly? "It's quite early today. Weren't you in the imperial court for a long time these past few days? Weren't there any ministers who weren't pressuring you in the imperial court today?"

After the appearance of Mu Xuanyin and Mu Yuze in the imperial court yesterday, how could those officials dare to put pressure on him?

If he put more pressure on Bai Zhan Ke to imprison Mu Jin for the crime of punishing flowers, he would be hostile to the entire Southern Kingdom.

"This morning, the imperial court only dealt with some trivial matters."

This was exactly what Flower Hibiscus wanted.

Otherwise, why would she bother having Mu Xuanli and Mu Yuze secretly bring them to the palace and appear in the morning assembly when they had arrived in the Huan Yue Country?

"Tonight, the empress dowager has set up a banquet to welcome the crown prince and the eldest prince to the capital."

Hua Mujiao was slightly surprised, but soon after, she revealed a sinister smile.

"It just so happens that she couldn't wait to set up a feast."

As she spoke, Hua Mujiao left Bai Zhan's embrace and walked over to Mu Yuze and Mu Xuanyin. She smiled and said, "Great imperial uncle, Little imperial uncle, you two must sing better for tonight's show. If not, it'll be bad for the empress dowager to spoil the mood."

"How do you want to sing?"

Raising an eyebrow, Mu Yuze asked.

"Mm, about this …"

Hua Mujiao thought for a long time before her eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "Of course it's to sing a big play. It's best if you can anger her to the point that she can no longer sit still, and won't be able to keep her footing for even a moment."

"Alright, you have the final say."

After Hua Mu Jin gave Mu Yuze and Mu Xuanyin her plan, she slipped away to the side chamber to find Mu Qiu.

He left three men staring at each other in the main hall.

"Mu Qiu, are you feeling better today?" The empress dowager is throwing a banquet tonight. I want you to play along with me, okay? "

Mu Qiu's body was still weak, but he was still able to eat on the bed.

At this moment, Mu Qiu was sitting by the table, drinking porridge sent over by the palace maid.

"It's much better now. Big sister Jin, how do you want to sing this play?"

Seeing that Mu Qiu's expression had improved slightly, Hua Mu Jin walked over and whispered in her ear. Only two people's voices could be heard telling Mu Qiu of her plan.

After she finished speaking of her plan, Mu Qiu frowned.

"Is that really feasible? "What if …"

"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine. Believe me, the more cliché a show is, the more popular it will be. So, you don't have to worry. "

With regards to his own plan, Hibiscus Blossom had a hundred percent certainty.

Although Mu Qiu was a little worried, he still listened to her.

"Oh yeah, there's something I should have told you earlier."

Suddenly, Mu Qiu's face turned serious. She put down the bowl in her hands and looked at Hua Mu Jin with an extremely strict expression.

"What is it?"

Hua Mu Jin knew that what Mu Qiu was going to say next was definitely not a small matter. Otherwise, she wouldn't have revealed such an expression.

"When I pretended to be unconscious for the past half month, Imperial Concubine Jing would come to the Eternal Music Palace every day. She said that she was taking care of me, but she was actually using some tricks to see if I was really unconscious. One day, I heard a conversation between her and her personal maid about pearls … "

Pearl?

Suddenly, Hua Mu Jin's body went stiff.
