Li Shan, who was fifty li away from the Southern Champion Kingdom, was the closest hot spring to the capital, but not everyone could soak in the hot spring here. This was because the entire hot spring was made out of sulphurous spring water, and the temperature of the water was very high, so most people did not soak in the hot spring here. This was because the Sulfur Springs could be used to neutralize the poison in Fang Zinan's body.
Before he left, Fang Zinan asked the emperor and his father for leave, simply saying that he would accompany Shang Yiqing to walk around, an excuse that was acceptable to everyone. After all, Fang Zinan and Shang Yiqing were newlyweds, newlyweds.
After making this decision, Fang Zinan called out to Xiao Tianyuan. Xiao Tianyuan only heard about it and immediately agreed to come with them. He really wasn't at ease with Fang Zinan and co., and in the event of any danger, he could also help. When Ying Ying heard of this, she was even more determined to go along with him. The four of them quietly left the capital at the end of May and arrived at the Lishan Hot Spring.
The Lishui Hot Spring was surrounded by mountains and was located in a small basin. The warm spring water was filled with dense steam, which was covered by the steam all year round. There was a green grassy slope in the surroundings, with green waves rising and falling like the waves of a tide, moving up and down with the wind, creating a beautiful scene. Even if he were to roll down the hill, land on the thick and soft grass, and land on the foot of the mountain, he would not be harmed in the slightest. It was even more beautiful with exotic flowers and plants, interspersed with exotic flowers.
As soon as Shang Yiqing and everyone else arrived at the hot spring in the Lishan Mountains, they were attracted by the wind, grass, trembling flowers and the wondrous scene of the flowing water.
Xiao Tianyuan pointed to a thatched cottage not far from the hot spring. "We'll stay there for the time being. I've already spoken with that farmer about this."
Fang Zinan nodded his head, revealing a satisfied expression towards this arrangement. He couldn't help but nod to Xiao Tian Yuan, "This place is indeed a good place. Brother Xiao, you've arranged everything so well."
She hadn't thought of it at all, but when she found out that the Xiao siblings were traveling together, she was even happier. This was because not only could she treat Fang Zinan's illness, she could even see him. Why wouldn't she be happy?
Ying Ying looked around before speaking happily to Shang Yiqing, "The scenery here is so beautiful. Are we really going to stay here?"
"Of course, you should know the situation of the prince. I want to help him expel the poison, so we will likely stay here for a period of time. Are you afraid of getting bored?" Shang Yiqing asked her with a smile.
Ying Ying shook her head repeatedly. "With your highness and wangfei here, Ying Ying won't be afraid of loneliness!"
Hearing this, Fang Zinan turned his face to Ying Ying and said, "We shouldn't reveal our identities here. You don't need to call her 'wangfei', you can call her 'big brother' Fang. As for 'wangfei', everyone can also call her 'Miss Shang'."
Shang Yiqing thought to herself, Fang Zinan was a very meticulous person, she had also thought of this. She looked at everyone before saying, "Although we are already here, I need to prepare the medicine first. We will need about two to three days to stay in the farmhouse Brother Xiao arranged for us. I will prepare the ingredients as soon as possible in the next two days, and when that happens, I can help Prince Rong cure his poison. "
"Qing'er, don't call me Prince Rong here anymore, just call me husband." Fang Zinan suddenly approached her and said gently.
Qing'er? Shang Yiqing's mind went blank; there was a temporary short circuit in it. For a moment, she didn't even turn around. Was he calling for me? How could she cry out so numbly? It was unbelievable, too awkward!
Seeing the confused look on Shang Yiqing's face, Fang Zinan couldn't help but laugh. He called out again in a serious tone, "Qing Er, didn't you hear that I was calling for you?"
"Oh!" At the same time, she didn't forget to glare at him fiercely. This was too creepy, even the imperial physician hadn't called her that since she arrived here. Hearing Fang Zinan call her this, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Xiao Tian Yuan glanced at them expressionlessly. "Let's go. We need to hurry to the thatched cottage. We've traveled for an entire day and everyone is tired. We should rest early." As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the thatched cottage.
Ying Ying briskly followed them. She already felt very happy to be able to come here with them, so her mood was happier than ever before.
After glaring at Fang Zinan once more, Shang Yiqing quickly followed behind Ying Ying.
Fang Zinan smiled as he looked at him. His eyes were filled with pity, amusement, and a little bit of pain.
Around the hut, there were a few clusters of tall banana flowers. Some were bright red, some were crimson, and some were golden but with blood-red petals.
As soon as Shang Yiqing stepped into the farmhouse, she was attracted by the strong smell of life. Two rooms, one on the west side and one on the east side. There were more than ten chickens leisurely pecking in the yard. They were not afraid when they saw people coming. The simple hut looked so serene and peaceful that the sun shone through the fence and smiled. Shang Yiqing couldn't tell if she was beautiful or not, so she took a deep liking to this small farmhouse with its unique characteristics.
Xiao Tian Yuan walked over and pushed open the door, saying, "In order to prevent others from disturbing Brother Fang's rest, I have already given this family quite a bit of money and asked them to move out of here. No one will disturb us if we stay here, and no one will find out. "
Fang Zinan looked around, "This place is not bad. It is close to the hot spring. The environment is good, and the air is fresh. This is a good place to be."
"Of course, the place Big Brother Xiao chose is definitely not bad!" Shang Yi Qing said happily as she looked towards Xiao Tian Yuan with a grateful gaze.
Xiao Tianyuan merely smiled and did not say anything else.
Fang Zinan turned around and gently smiled to Shang Yuqing, "Qing Er, let's take a rest first."
Shang Yiqing felt goosebumps all over her body. She couldn't say anything, so she took the bag from Fang Zinan's hands and walked into the thatched cottage.
"Ying Ying, stop looking. We're going to stay here for a period of time anyway. Sooner or later, we'll get familiar with this place. It's best for us to go in together." Fang Zinan called out to Ying Ying to come in.
Seeing Fang Zinan walk into the room, Xiao Tianyuan's smile was filled with bitterness. He clearly knew that Shang Yiqing was Fang Zinan's wife, but why did he feel so uncomfortable when he called her Qing Er this way?
