A possessive and obsessive Prince? A dark-bellied Princess Consort with the support of a system that grants mastery over both medicine and poison. A journey of mutual devotion...
Mobeichen, t...
The carriage sped along the official road, with only the sound of hooves and wind all around.
Hearing the commotion outside, Yun Qingluo frowned slightly, and Mo Beichen paused in his book-turning.
Feng Tianxing approached the carriage and whispered, "My lord, Your Majesty, there's news from the Ghost Doctor."
Yun Qingluo lifted the curtain on the side of the carriage, a hint of joy in her eyes, waiting for Feng Tianxing to continue.
Feng Tianxing immediately said, "The Ghost Doctor said they have already found a place to stay and prepared the medicine, just waiting for you to come."
Yun Qingluo's lips curled into a smile, which then faded abruptly. She asked softly, "Have you encountered any trouble?"
Upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words, Feng Tianxing knew that she was aware of the situation, and then he said, "Reporting to my lord, the Ghost Doctor said that the medicinal herbs are insufficient."
"Not enough?" Mo Beichen suddenly spoke up.
Feng Tianxing glanced at Mo Beichen with some apprehension, startled by his sudden aura of power.
He immediately lowered his head and respectfully replied, "Yes, the Ghost Doctor sent a message saying that someone deliberately destroyed a large quantity of medicinal herbs. They have found out that it was Old Zhou, but it was done in secret, not openly. They are not in a position to make a decision right now."
Yun Qingluo felt somewhat lost, a feeling she couldn't quite put her finger on.
Is this trip going to be fruitless?
Mo Beichen instructed them to continue their journey and reached out to lower the curtains.
Then, he pulled Yun Qingluo into his arms and whispered to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, Luoluo, there will definitely be a way."
"If we can't find it on the Xuancang Continent, we'll look for it on other continents. Since we have the formula for the antidote, we'll surely find the ingredients."
Upon hearing Mo Beichen's words of comfort, Yun Qingluo smiled faintly.
He was clearly more anxious than I was, but he immediately comforted me.
Having an emotionally stable partner is truly a rare privilege.
"Okay, Ah Chen, I understand. Let's hurry on our way."
Yun Qingluo wanted to see her master and junior uncle as soon as possible.
Mo Beichen nodded, lifted the curtain, and gave the instructions.
Over the next few days, they traveled non-stop.
Yun Qingluo suggested riding a horse again halfway through the journey, but Mo Beichen refused without hesitation.
If she were to actually ride a horse, her body wouldn't be able to withstand the journey to the Xuancang Continent.
Yun Qingluo had no choice but to give up and obediently stay in the carriage, hoping to arrive soon.
Xuancang Continent.
Main hall.
"Your Highness, you should rest well. I'll go and invite the Grand Tutor." Shadow knelt on one knee, his tone urgent.
He had just finished dealing with Zi Xun's matter and was originally planning to look for Yun Qingluo's whereabouts.
But suddenly they received news that His Highness wanted to go see the Grand Tutor in person.
Upon hearing the news, he disregarded Xun Yunqingluo and rushed over immediately.
Fortunately, I used my light-foot technique on the way, otherwise His Highness would have already left.
When he arrived, His Highness was already dressed and about to leave.
Xuanming sat upright on the edge of the bed, his brows slightly furrowed.
He looked with displeasure at the shadow kneeling at his feet, refusing to budge an inch.
After a long pause, Xuanming said coldly, "The Xuancang Continent is getting more and more chaotic. If I don't get up soon, this continent will change hands."
He still has things to do, and he doesn't want to waste time on internal conflicts.
But the Grand Tutor suddenly claimed to be ill and refused to help with government affairs anymore.
He vaguely guessed that it was probably related to his marriage.
He and the Grand Tutor's eldest daughter had been betrothed since childhood, and they should have reached marriageable age, but he developed health problems.
He heard that the girl was also prone to illness, and his original intention was to break off the engagement so as not to burden the girl.
However, given the circumstances at the time, he needed the Grand Tutor's assistance in managing state affairs.
Although he knew that even if the engagement was dissolved, the Grand Tutor would not stand idly by.
But the young lady is, after all, the Grand Tutor's beloved daughter. If he were to propose canceling the engagement, there would definitely be a huge uproar.
If someone with malicious intent takes advantage of this loophole, it will be another disaster for the people.
In addition, his condition worsened, and Shadow refused to let the young girl see him.
As time went by, he forgot about it.
Looking back now, it was probably because of Zixun's incident a few days ago that the Grand Tutor was displeased and just acted out.
He's so old, and he's helped me for so many years; he's done a great service.
I was just going to visit them; it was only right that I did so.
But the person in front of me wouldn't budge an inch. Alas.
“You and the Grand Tutor are already at odds. If you go to invite him, the Grand Tutor will probably get even sicker.”
Seeing that the shadow remained unmoved, a hint of helplessness appeared on Xuanming's expressionless face.
They grew up together, so why is it that his bodyguard is so ugly?
Who gave him this stubbornness that's worse than an ox?
Sometimes when I'm really angry, I can still listen to advice, so why can't this person listen to a single word of advice?
Shadow grew up with Xuanming since childhood, so he naturally knows his prince very well.
He knew that once he opened his mouth, he would be led by the nose by His Highness, so he simply shrank back and knelt motionless in front of Xuanming.
Show how much you resist through your actions.
Xuanming wanted to get angry, but he was powerless to do so. He knew that Yingzi was doing it for his own good.
"Fine, I won't go. Go and invite the Grand Tutor's daughter over," Xuan Ming said coldly, straightening his robes.
A look of surprise flashed across Shadow's face. Since His Highness was old enough to understand things, he had no interest in love and devoted himself to the affairs of the court and the people.
His Highness's heart is colder than ice.
It's been so many years since I've heard him mention her, why does he suddenly want to meet her?
The shadow instinctively wanted to speak up in protest.
The girl looked sickly, her face paler than the snow in winter, and she seemed frail and weak. What was there to see?
