Chapter 140 Lingnan
Seeing that so many ministers agreed to let Chen'er go to Lingnan, the emperor was actually not very happy.
After all, Chen'er's body had just recovered, and he ran to such a far and difficult place. I was really worried that his body couldn't bear it.
Just when he was about to deny this matter, Shang Zhanchen looked at him again.
“Thank you for your concern, Father. However, my body has recovered. Even if the conditions in Lingnan are difficult, there will be no problem.
Besides, if the problem over there is not resolved, I will not be able to recover even if I stay in the palace, so please allow me, father."
Shang Zhanchen stood up and bowed to the emperor with a serious and solemn look on his face.
He naturally knew that this was a difficult problem posed to him by the Right Prime Minister, but he had to go to Lingnan this time.
In addition to resolving the dispute over there, there is another reason: we can't let that woman stay in Xianxia Mountain forever.
“……………………” The emperor frowned.
Seeing Chen'er so determined, he has made up his mind to go to Lingnan.
"Third brother......" Shang Zhanbai was about to stop him but was interrupted by Shang Zhanchen.
"Fifth brother, I have made up my mind." He glanced at Shang Zhanbai.
He also knew that Lao Wu cared about him and didn't want him to fall into the trap of You Xiang and his men, but he also had his own ideas.
“……………………”Shang Zhanbai frowned.
After receiving the look from his third brother, although he was still puzzled as to why his third brother insisted on going to Lingnan, he still shut up.
Seeing that Chen'er was determined to go to Lingnan, the emperor hesitated for a long time before reluctantly nodding.
"In that case, you should be more careful and bring more people."
"Your son thanks the emperor." Shang Zhanchen bowed to the emperor again to express his gratitude.
“……………………”He Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief.
He looked at Shang Zhanchen again, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes. After all, he was still young.
You have been too chivalrous in doing things, not knowing how dangerous the outside world is. This time when you leave Beijing, don't expect to come back safely.
After the Xia Dynasty, Shang Zhanbai couldn't wait to meet Shang Zhanchen.
"Third brother, how could you agree to go to Lingnan? Don't you know that it is the right...?"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shang Zhanchen.
"Of course I know."
"Then why are you still going?" Shang Zhanbai looked at Shang Zhanchen in confusion.
With Third Brother's intelligence, he should be able to see what the Right Prime Minister is thinking. He is not the kind of person who acts on impulse, so he really doesn't understand why he has to make this trip.
Seeing that Lao Wu’s brows were furrowed, Shang Zhanchen sighed.
"There have been constant disputes over the Lingnan border in recent years. If this continues, it will not be a good thing."
He looked at Shang Zhanbai. Although there were no major wars, the constant disputes would only intensify the conflicts.
Who knows, it might lead to a war someday. With the current strength of the Great Shang Kingdom, it really can't afford to be tossed around.
"Even so, can't you send someone else?" Shang Zhanbai looked at Shang Zhanchen in confusion.
Even if what the Third Brother said is true, there is no need for him to go in person. Wouldn't it be fine to send two trusted men?
"I still plan to go by myself. By the way, I have something else to deal with."
"What's the matter?" Shang Zhanbai looked at Shang Zhanchen and felt that his third brother was hiding something from him.
Looking at Lao Wu's gossipy eyes, I think he will not let it go if I don't tell him.
"Um...your third sister-in-law is still in Xianxia Mountain." After saying that, he touched his nose again.
He held back the corners of his mouth that couldn't help curling up. With that woman's bad temper, there was no way he could bring her back now.
I didn't want to force her, so I thought of giving her some more time to get used to each other. Then she would be willing to come back with me.
“Oh……………………” Shang Zhanbai’s tone was long and he circled around Shang Zhanchen several times.
"Oh, oh, you admit that I'm your wife! Stop calling me that woman!"
Shang Zhanbai turned into a gossipy old woman, pouting as she looked at Shang Zhanchen in front of her. The last time he went there, she always glared at him with a bad look.
He kept calling that woman and that woman, but this time he admitted that she was his wife.
I thought he went to Lingnan for some serious business, but it turned out he was going to meet a beautiful lady.
"Look at yourself, you are just a common woman!" Shang Zhanchen glared at Shang Zhanbai fiercely.
Feeling unsatisfied, he kicked him again. He was a prince, but he always acted like a gossiping old woman. Just looking at him made him want to beat him up.
As if he remembered something, he turned and looked at Jiang You.
"Write a letter to Jiang Zuo and tell me what's happening here." After saying that, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably again.
I haven't been back for some time and I don't know what that woman has been doing.
At this moment, Shen Yiyi was still concentrating on refining pills. She didn't know if it was because all the medicines Jiang Zuo brought back during this period were good.
Not only has the speed of alchemy been shortened, but the quality has also been greatly improved.
What made her happiest was that she was able to develop internal strength without the help of elixirs.
She can also light the alchemy furnace. Although her power is extremely weak, it is a great thing for her.
This means that with her small body, it is very possible for her to develop the same strong internal strength as in her previous life and return to the peak state of her previous life.
Whenever I think of this incident, I can't help but smile.
When he looked at the pills being refined nearby, he felt even happier.
"Xiao Jiang, I'm hungry. Is the meal ready?"
"Okay, Miss, it's been ready for quite some time." Seeing the Crown Princess coming out, Jiang Zuo hurriedly wiped his hands.
He lifted the lids of the dishes on the stone table. Ever since Shang Zhanchen and Han Chun left, he had transformed into an all-round nanny.
Washing clothes and cooking are essential skills, and he also has to find time to help the Crown Princess apply medicine powder, but he doesn't do it alone.
The secret guards outside were not idle either. Each of them held a stone jar and a stone pestle, sat on the branches of a big tree, and ground the medicine powder carefully.
Although this job is slow, everyone is eager to do it, mainly because it is not in vain.
Every two days of working, they would get a pill that could help them concentrate their energy, which was their motivation.
As for the reason, Jiang Zuo said that he asked the people living at the foot of the mountain to help grind the medicinal powder, so Shen Yiyi had no objection to using pills as a reward.
In just ten days, not only did Shen Yiyi refine more than a dozen kinds of elixirs, totaling hundreds of bottles, but she also ground out a lot of poison powders with various effects.
Looking at the roasted rabbit in front of her, Shen Yiyi pulled one of his thighs down without any hesitation.
Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he seemed to remember something and looked at Jiang Zuo again.
"Xiao Jiang, when you have time, ask Xiao Guai and the others to come back. We have almost finished refining the medicine."
After saying that, he tore off a large piece of rabbit meat and began to chew it happily, thinking of the herbs that Xiaoguai had collected during this period.
I was quite happy in my heart, I didn't expect that guy seemed to have no human touch at all.
If you have a warm heart, it's really touching. So many good medicines have been sent back. He must have suffered a lot during this period.
I'm not a heartless person. Besides, my medicine supply is almost gone, so I thought about asking Xiaoguai to come back.
"Um, okay." Jiang Zuo's mouth twitched.
I thought the Crown Princess had forgotten about her master.
