"Hey, it's amazing. I haven't been sick all this time!" Yan Miaoling exclaimed.
It was at this moment that the sisters learned that the eunuch who delivered the decree was actually Huang Deshan, the chief eunuch beside the queen. In the palace, his status was not much lower than that of the deceased Yin Dafu.
People like this have their nostrils pointing upwards.
They were respectful to them at first, but once they left Prince Chen's sphere of influence, their behavior changed. They weren't overtly harassing them or treating them poorly with food. They simply kept arguing about the Emperor and demanding they hurry to the palace, so they'd just rush wherever they wanted, even if it meant sleeping in the suburbs.
Despite all this trouble, Yan Miaoling didn't get sick. She was a hundred times better than when she left.
Night Owl joked, "Maybe it's roasted sweet potatoes?" He didn't like sweets and couldn't understand why this girl liked them so much. Whenever they met along the way, she would always stop to look.
Yan Miaoling was eating at this time, her hands full of black. "Mm, fragrant and sweet, worthy of being the hometown of sweet potatoes. I have never eaten such delicious sweet potatoes, sister, come and try it. Look at this, it's much yellower than ordinary ones."
The three of them were staying at the inn. They were hiding in a room, chatting and waiting for the eunuch to call them for dinner. Shen Aoshan waved her hands repeatedly to refuse. She was not a person who cared much about food, and she was not in the mood to eat at the moment.
Yan Miaoling saw it and deliberately made her laugh, "Sister, don't worry. I will help you fight in the palace, and I guarantee that those women in the harem are no match for you!" She has a space to hide from the poison, and she has the ability to clone herself to assist remotely. She doesn't believe that she can't deal with them.
Shen Aoshan pulled the corners of her mouth, but she just couldn't be happy.
"Knock knock!" Someone knocked on the window.
Night Owl woke up with a start, stood up, and whispered, "Who is it?" He was definitely an expert to be able to avoid the accompanying Royal Guards. He was obviously not an enemy to be able to knock on the window.
"It's me!" The person's voice was very soft, but Night Owl could still hear it immediately. He lazily opened the window, turned around and went back to sit. He muttered softly, "Dog skin plaster!"
There are two women in the room.
First, Shen Aoshan's face finally showed a hint of life, and it was surprise, "Senior Brother, why are you back?" Then he understood and glanced at Yan Miaoling.
Yes, Senior Brother's original intention wasn't to support the border. Besides, there weren't any major battles going on right now, so the existing military doctors in the North were more than enough.
Although Bai Muchen doesn't talk much, he is very thoughtful.
Especially when you understand the taste of love. When he landed, he took out the secret letter in his arms and handed it to Shen Aoshan, "Here, someone asked me to pass it to you!"
The power of love is truly magical.
Yan Miaoling clearly saw the joy on Shen Aoshan's face, and upon closer inspection, she also saw shyness, then she found an excuse to go back to her room.
She looked away and continued to gnaw on the sweet potato in her hand.
Bai Muchen was initially dissatisfied. She wasn't even a bit surprised by his arrival. She didn't ask, didn't say, didn't take the initiative...
He chased me all the way here, exhausted, as if he were facing a piece of wood. He was so angry. It would be fine if he didn't say anything, but he kept eating, eating, eating, eating, all he knew was eating...
eat...
Bai Muchen snatched the roasted sweet potato from Yan Miaoling's hand and carefully examined it...
"Hey, what are you doing?" Yan Miaoling was furious. Why did he start fighting over something when they didn't agree? Of course she noticed his intense gaze. After that space confession, if she still didn't understand, she would be stupid.
But how should she do it?
A passionate and bold response? But they are not a couple, so what's the point of responding?
However, after his confession, she didn't know why she was not as relaxed and at ease with him anymore. Perhaps she was embarrassed.
Seeing that Bai Muchen didn't speak for a long time, she felt something was wrong and took a step forward, "What's wrong?"
Bai Muchen suppressed his excitement and asked, "Where did you get this?"
The silly look made Yan Miaoling want to laugh, "Where else could I get it from? I bought it from the street below the inn. There was an old man who said he grew too many sweet potatoes and couldn't sell them, so he roasted them and sold them. I didn't want to buy them, but he kept asking me to sell them. I felt sorry for him and finally bought them."
Night Owl folded his arms and snorted coldly. "That's a nice thing to say. Are you sure you're not just passing by and can't walk?"
However, Yan Miaoling's words made him feel unusual. Why did the old man only chase them and not others?
Looking at Bai Muchen, he asked, "What did you find?" Ye Xiao knew that Yan Miaoling's space could test for poisons. He wasn't worried about being poisoned, but he thought the old man was a little strange...
A few minutes later, the three of them arrived at the street just mentioned.
Yan Miaoling murmured, "How strange! It was there just now!"
The night owl took a deep breath and leaped up, flying onto the roof. It was all his fault for living in comfort for too long, letting his guard down. "I'll go get someone to help me find it!"
Who would have thought that the legendary Chishan Ice Lotus actually looks like a sweet potato...
Yan Miaoling looked at Bai Muchen and asked, "Brother Muchen, are you sure this isn't a sweet potato, but a Chishan Ice Lotus?"
Bai Muchen nodded seriously. "Looking at the appearance, it does look very similar. Look here, although it has the same purple-red skin as the sweet potato, it has texture! Have you looked closely at this texture? It's like a lotus flower."
His beautiful eyes, long eyelashes fluttering, stared at the sweet potato as if it were a treasure. Yan Miaoling found it adorable.
Bai Muchen was completely unaware. He thought about the description in the ancient book he had read, "I need to taste it to see if it's true..." So he lowered his head and took a bite...
"Hey, you..." I bit it. Yan Miaoling didn't have time to finish her words because she had already tasted it carefully.
"Hmm, it tastes sweet, with a fragrance between rose and osmanthus. I am 90% sure that this is the Chishan Ice Lotus." But, how could such a precious and rare thing come from the hands of an old farmer?
