Han Yu felt that what Dugu Xin said made some sense.
However, at this moment, the earth dragon had been put into the universal storage box, and they didn't know whether it was dead or alive.
Not to mention using the earth dragon as bait.
"Master, how about we write to the Queen of Daxia and ask if this earth dragon can be released temporarily?"
Dugu Xin frowned and thought for a moment, then finally nodded.
"Have the people from the No. 1 Manor in the World send her a message as quickly as possible. Everyone else, continue tracking the Rat King."
"By the way, I think there are still many strange things in the Cangwu River. I told them to be more careful when tracking the Rat King."
Han Yu agreed and went to do it, but not long after he went out, he hurried back.
"Your Highness, something bad has happened. Someone discovered golden shells in the lower reaches of the Cangwu River. An old fisherman said they are very likely golden clams."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Xin immediately took out the picture album from his arms and pointed at the golden shell marked by Wutou.
"Is this the headless one they're talking about?"
Han Yu hesitated. "I haven't seen it, but the golden shell does look a bit like the headless one."
Dugu Xin stood up immediately, and then asked Han Yu to take his men with him and rush towards the lower reaches of the Cangwu River.
Han Yu looked at Dugu Xin's anxious figure and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Every time the master encounters something related to the Queen of Daxia, he always loses his composure. This is not like his character at all."
Han Yu's companion following behind him nodded, but still reminded him.
"Guard Han, if you don't leave now, you'll be punished by His Highness."
Han Yu came to his senses and immediately quickened his pace to catch up.
In the Great Xia Palace, Ye Xiaoxiao was resting in her bedroom in a state of anxiety.
"Tianxuan, is there any news from Dugu Xin?"
Tianxuan shook his head and Ye Xiaoxiao sighed. At this moment, Shangguan Lingyun walked in with Dugu Xin's pigeon letter.
"I know you're worried, so I showed it to you as soon as the letter arrived."
Ye Xiaoxiao took it with a faint smile, and then without waiting for Shangguan Lingyun to do anything, she opened the letter and read it.
"Dugu Xin said they encountered some minor difficulties and needed our help. I may need to go to Cangwu Mountain."
Shangguan Lingyun frowned, took the letter from Ye Xiaoxiao's hand, read it once, and sighed.
"They are just guessing. If this earth dragon has nothing to do with the Rat King, then your trip was in vain, right?"
Ye Xiaoxiao shook her head. "How could it be a wasted trip? Now that we have the Earth Dragon, as long as we catch the Rat King, we can gather more medicinal materials."
Shangguan Lingyun frowned fiercely, "But your body?"
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled lightly, "It's okay, I'm in good health, and don't worry, I'm just helping him open the box."
"With the universal storage box here, I don't need to go up the mountain myself."
"I believe that with you and Dugu Xin working together, not to mention a single Musk Rat King, even a group of them would be more than enough to defeat them."
Moreover, my second brother will arrive in the capital this afternoon, and we can go together then.
With you protecting me, I believe nothing will happen.
Shangguan Lingyun knew Ye Xiaoxiao's personality. Since she had already thought about what to do next, there was no way to stop her.
"Never mind, but we're currently conducting a scientific expedition, so we have to go and come back quickly."
The palace examination required Shangguan Lingyun to personally supervise it, so they did not have much time.
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, and then asked Tianxuan to clean up briefly.
She herself was not idle either. She sent the two children, who had just been brought home a few days ago, back to the empress dowager.
When the Queen Mother learned that Ye Xiaoxiao was leaving the palace again, her expression suddenly turned ugly.
Ye Xiaoxiao hurriedly recounted the whole story, and the Queen Mother reluctantly took the two children back.
"This matter is extraordinary. As the king and queen of a country, you must not take it lightly."
"Also, as more and more antidotes for the Lianxin Poison are found, some people may become restless. You and Lingyun must be careful and vigilant."
Ye Xiaoxiao knew that the Queen Mother was talking about Shangguan Yu, but she did not take him seriously.
"Don't worry, mother. Your Majesty and I are the ones who are reluctant to see him die."
"If he refuses to live a peaceful life, we will make sure they get what they want."
The Queen Mother was relieved upon hearing this, and then gave her a few more instructions before letting her go.
After returning to the bedroom, Ye Xiaoxiao briefly told Shangguan Lingyun about Shangguan Yu's affairs.
"Don't worry, ever since I met the Han family father and son last time, I have sent people to keep a close watch on him."
"Now that the emperor is watching over him, he won't be able to cause any trouble for the time being."
"But your second brother has already returned to the capital, and is now bringing Li Jingjing to the palace to see you."
Ye Xiaoxiao understood, glanced at Tianxuan who had almost finished cleaning up, and nodded.
"I understand. Second brother will have a slow march with the army. We should leave first and leave tonight."
Shangguan Lingyun did not object. To him, as long as Ye Xiaoxiao was safe, it didn't matter if it was one day earlier or later.
The two talked for a while about what to pay attention to on the road, and then they heard Eunuch Yu coming to pass on the message.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, General Ye and Second Madam Ye request an audience."
"Let them in."
Eunuch Yu retreated again, and then Ye Rong and his wife walked in together.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao directly invited them to take a seat.
"Second brother, you've worked hard all the way. What's the situation in Maoshan now?"
