After listening to Lu Lan's words, Ning Jingfeng pondered for a moment.
Two months ago, Ning Canghan's symptoms began to gradually worsen.
The timing is consistent.
As for whether someone gave Ning Canghan something like flowers, plants or incense three months ago, only Ning Canghan knew.
In addition, despite Ning Canghan's status, there are countless people who give him gifts.
But with Ning Canghan's upright character, he basically refused to accept it.
This way, the scope of the murderer is greatly narrowed.
Ning Jingfeng clasped his hands together and said gratefully:
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for providing the clue. This clue is very important to us."
Lu Lan smiled slightly: "Since the princess has such high hopes for me, of course I have to do my best."
"Speaking of which, has the princess ever made many enemies?"
Lu Lan suddenly turned and asked.
Ning Jingfeng was startled, then thought for a moment and said:
"If we exclude those enemies from the Dafeng Nation, my father actually didn't have many enemies."
"Gafeng Nation?"
This was the first time Lu Lan heard of a country other than the Great Wu Kingdom.
"Oh, the Gale Country has been peaceful for a long time these days. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."
Ning Jingfeng explained:
"Dafeng Country is a country very close to Dawu Country. The only thing that separates the two countries is the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range' that stretches ten thousand feet across."
"A long time ago, the Dafeng Kingdom wanted to annex the territory of the Dawu Kingdom, and frequently launched wars against the Dawu Kingdom."
After a pause, Ning Jingfeng looked towards the west with a hint of hostility:
"Liufeng City, located in the westernmost part of Wuyun County, is very close to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range and was the first city to be attacked by the Dafeng Nation."
"Back then, it was my father who donned armor and personally fought the enemy. He won several battles with near-total victory, stabilizing the border towns of Wuyun County."
"That's why many people in the Gale Country have come to hate my father."
Hearing this, Lu Lan immediately felt respect for Ning Canghan.
Wearing armor and going into battle to protect the country... Ning Canghan's past deeds made Lu Lan respect him from the bottom of his heart.
"So, if they sent someone to plant a Gu on my father, it's not impossible."
At this point, the hostility in Ning Jingfeng's eyes became even more intense:
"But that also means... there's a traitor in the Princess's Mansion!"
Lu Lan narrowed her eyes slightly and agreed with Ning Jingfeng's judgment.
"In short, this matter needs to wait until the trial of Feng Wandu is completed before any progress can be made."
Ning Jingfeng said.
While the two were talking, the medicine storehouse soon arrived.
The elixir storehouse is located in a rockery in the princess's mansion.
There was an old man guarding the door of the spiritual medicine storehouse.
Ning Jingfeng walked over and said something to the old man.
After listening to this, the old man looked at Lu Lan with a hint of surprise, then nodded to Ning Jingfeng and turned to face the door.
As he stretched out his hand and pressed the door, array patterns gradually emerged on the door.
The old man's mysterious power surged along the lines of the formation.
After a while, the door gradually opened.
A strong smell of medicine immediately entered Lu Lan's nose.
Lu Lan suddenly raised his brows.
Just by the smell of medicine, Lu Lan could tell that there were more than a dozen rare medicinal herbs in it.
As expected of a princess's mansion, the conditions are indeed very generous.
"Mr. Lu, according to what my father said, you can choose three herbs of your choice."
Ning Jingfeng led Lu Lan to the spiritual medicine storehouse: "Don't worry, just take whatever you like."
Lu Lan thanked him and then looked to the left and right.
Almost all the medicinal materials in the spiritual medicine warehouse are well stored, and a large number of them are placed in highly sealed black wooden boxes.
A very few medicinal herbs are specially stored in targeted items to prevent the spiritual energy of the herbs from leaking too much.
At this time, Lu Lan's eyes were fixed on one of the golden wooden boxes.
He said to the old man following Ning Jingfeng, "Senior, is the Heaven-Nourishing Mysterious Bamboo inside this black wooden box?"
Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes flashed with amazement, and he nodded and said, "Young Master, you have a keen eye. There is indeed a nearly seven hundred year old Yangtian Xuanzhu stored inside."
Yangtian Xuanzhu mainly has the function of cleansing the soul and nourishing the heart.
"Then I'll take it."
Lu Lan put the black wooden box containing the Yangtian Xuanzhu into the storage ring.
From the moment he saw the Yangtian Xuanzhu, he had already decided which of the two remaining medicinal herbs to choose.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Lan took out two more medicinal herbs, "Qinggu Lotus Heart" and "Suyuan Qingzhi".
After taking the three medicinal herbs, Lu Lan and Ning Jingfeng said goodbye to the old man and prepared to go back to the hall to pick up Chu Yun.
On the way back, Ning Jingfeng suddenly asked:
"Mr. Lu, are you taking these three herbs... to improve your physical condition?"
Lu Lan would confirm the three medicinal herbs she had with the old man.
Ning Jingfeng was not a man of little experience. The moment he heard the names of the herbs, he knew what their functions were.
These three herbs respectively have the functions of improving physical fitness, cleansing the soul and nourishing the heart, and improving the efficiency of cultivation.
"No, I want to help my aunt improve her physical condition."
Lu Lan shook her head.
"aunt?"
Ning Jingfeng was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Is that Miss Chu?"
Lu Lan smiled and nodded.
Since Chu Tiantian has become his fiancée, her aunt is naturally Lu Lan's aunt.
Therefore, although Lu Lan can still call Chu Yun "Master" in private, he still needs to introduce her as Aunt in front of outsiders.
