At this time, the shopkeeper came over, pinching his beard and said, "You two are ignorant."
"What do you know! The woman who bought medicine just now is said to be the female medical officer of the diplomatic mission."
"I heard that a high-ranking figure in the delegation was assassinated last night and was seriously injured. Now his life is in danger and he is about to die."
"In order to save the life of this important person, the delegation is naturally willing to spend money. Not to mention a mere 800 taels, even if it is 8,000 taels or 80,000 taels, if it can save a life, they will buy it."
A look of understanding flashed across the eyes of the two guys, and they were all filled with emotion.
A man with triangular eyes standing at the door of the pharmacy asked the shopkeeper curiously, "Someone in the delegation was attacked and injured. Does the shopkeeper know who it was?"
The shopkeeper looked him over and said calmly, "I don't know."
The delegation stayed in Shijiu Fort for another two days.
Ever since Yue Haoyun was assassinated, the Second Prince has not allowed him to go out.
He stayed in the room all the time, and only Xifeng, the Second Prince and others were allowed to enter.
Two days later, the news spread throughout Shijiu Fort that the great prince Yue Haoyun had been assassinated, seriously injured, and was in critical condition.
The Second Prince and Han Qingbo led the delegation forward only after seeing that the effect had been fully achieved.
…
Dai Viet Royal Palace.
Empress Dowager Zhu Ling leaned comfortably in the rocking chair, eating grapes one by one.
Han Lie sat opposite and reported, "Your Majesty, Yue Haoyun is seriously injured. It is estimated that he will die soon."
"Perhaps, he won't even make it back to Beijing."
Zhu Ling smiled evilly: "He has a bad fate and is born lowly. He is just a short-lived ghost."
"Now, I've finally gotten rid of a worry in my family."
When Han Lie heard the words "short-lived ghost", his face suddenly turned ugly. After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty is the true emperor. God will protect him."
Zhu Ling looked at Han Lie's expression, as if she suddenly thought of something. A trace of guilt flashed in her eyes, and she said softly, "Master Han, I was just saying that Yue Haoyun would die young. I didn't mean anything else. Please don't think too much about it."
"I know you've just lost your son, and you must be heartbroken."
Han Lie pulled the corners of his mouth and forced a smile, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. As the Prime Minister of Dai Viet, I have a lot of experience."
"My son is dead. Although I am heartbroken, whenever I come to the palace and enter the court, my heart is filled with Dai Viet, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty."
After hearing this, Zhu Ling was so moved that her eyes became moist.
"Lord Han, you are truly a loyal subject of Great Viet. If you have anything you want, just tell me, and I will definitely satisfy you."
…
After leaving Shijiu Fort, more than half a month passed and the delegation had arrived in Dai Viet.
That day, the delegation arrived at Mai County and stayed in the official inn.
Everyone in the inn was busy washing themselves, changing into clean clothes, and urging the inn servants to cook quickly.
In an instant, the small inn became extremely lively.
Yue Haoyun still hid in his room as before, asked Xifeng to bring him some food and water, and then stayed indoors.
Yin Xizi adhered to the principle of doing the whole show. After a simple packing, he took his followers to boil medicine outside Yue Haoyun's door.
Everyone hadn't stayed in an inn for three or four days, and hadn't stayed in a decent county town for many days, so they were all a little excited.
Xia Miaoyuan's room.
Nanny Li and the palace maid found some clean clothes and prepared to help Xia Miaoyuan wash and change into them.
Xia Miaoyuan ran around the room like a little hamster.
"Young prince, be good and let us wash and dress you." Nanny Li and the palace maids chased after him with towels and clothes.
"This princess doesn't need to wash at all. Look, nanny, my little hands are not dirty, and my little face is not dirty either! I'm going out to play now!" Although Xia Miaoyuan's legs are short, she can run very fast.
She pushed open the door and rushed into the courtyard of the inn.
"Young Prince! How can you not wash? You haven't washed your face for two days!" Nanny Li held her waist and chased out of the room, panting with exhaustion.
"Mammy, are you okay?" The little palace maid hurriedly supported the mammy.
Xia Miaoyuan turned to look at Nanny Li and made a face: "I'm not going to wash! Go play first, that's the most important thing!"
She was talking but her legs didn't stop. Suddenly, she bumped into something.
"Ouch!" Xia Miaoyuan screamed.
"You're being naughty and disobedient again!" The second prince's familiar voice came from above Xia Miaoyuan.
She looked up and saw that the person she bumped into was none other than her beloved second brother.
She rubbed her sore face and explained seriously, "Second brother, I'm not being naughty. I just want to save time and get to know Mai County as quickly as possible. I want to experience the exotic customs of Dai Viet as efficiently as possible."
The Second Prince picked up Xia Miaoyuan by the waist, patted her butt gently and said, "After studying in the Great Hall for several months, you're already making such a pretense of avoiding washing up!"
"You have to clean up even if you go out to play! You are the Princess of Daxia!"
As he spoke, the Second Prince walked up to Madam Li, stuffed Xia Miaoyuan into Madam Li's arms, and said, "Be good and wash up, then I'll take you out to play."
Xia Miaoyuan curled her lips with all her might, "Humph! Seriously! Children don't even have the right to not wash their faces."
Nanny Li and the little palace maid quickly dressed Xia Miaoyuan and changed her into a light pink gauze dress.
With her delicate round face, cute double buns, and a light pink dress, Xia Miaoyuan instantly turned into a pretty little girl, as if she had walked out of a painting.
