Shangguan Lingyun nodded. "Xiaoxiao and I will go ahead in the carriage. You must mobilize the troops in the rear as quickly as possible and strive to arrive as soon as possible."
"As for other matters, we will make a decision after we reach the Cangwu River."
Ye Rong did not object. After Li Jingjing reluctantly gave Ye Xiaoxiao a few instructions, the couple left.
After they left, Shangguan Lingyun took Ye Xiaoxiao and got on a specially made carriage.
The carriage was covered with thick bedding, so even though it was moving very fast, it was not bumpy at all.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the carriage with satisfaction, and then praised Shangguan Lingyun without hesitation.
"Thank you, my husband, for your consideration. My child and I can travel so comfortably."
Shangguan Lingyun smiled dotingly, then hugged the person in his arms. Wang Xiao and Tianxuan took turns walking outside.
The carriage sped all the way and reached the border city in less than three days.
In order to avoid causing disputes between the two countries, Ye Sheng and Princess Xinya waited here to meet them.
"You're finally here. How was your journey? Did you have a good time? Are you feeling unwell?"
Facing the concern of her fourth brother and Princess Xinya, Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly and shook her head.
"Don't worry, I've been fine all the way. But you guys have been staying here for a few days. Have you found anything?"
Ye Sheng and the other man welcomed them into a branch of the No. 1 Manor in the World, and then began to tell them about what they had discovered in the past few days.
"We originally planned to rendezvous with Dugu Xin, but later received a message from him asking us to slow down our progress and pay attention to the people around us."
"Later, we heard that you were coming, so we stayed here to wait for you."
"Including today, we have stayed here for three days."
"In the past three days, Xinya and I have been observing the surroundings for a long time, and we haven't found any people with high fever."
"Also, although the Cangwu River is overrun with muskrats, we haven't found any traces of muskrats within Daxia."
"During the few days you were on the road, Prince Dayu tried various methods, but without exception, they all ended in failure."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, and then Ye Sheng took out a map.
"We are currently at this location. A little further ahead is where Prince Dayu and his companions are now, and that is where the muskrat was discovered in the Cangwu River."
"Now that you're here, do you think we should go there now, or wait for my second brother and the others to arrive and then go together?"
Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun looked at each other, and then Shangguan Lingyun spoke.
"Ye Rong brought his troops here, but without the permission of the two countries, they can only wander along the border and cannot go to Dayu."
"In that case, let's go over and take a look."
Ye Sheng did not object. After arranging for Ye Xiaoxiao and the others to have lunch, he took them on a new journey.
In order to avoid being misunderstood by the soldiers guarding the city of Dayu, Ye Xiaoxiao disguised herself as a maid and accompanied Princess Xinya in the carriage.
Shangguan Lingyun, Ye Sheng and others were guarding on both sides on horseback.
After leaving the city, they walked for a while and arrived at the city gate of Dayu border.
Ye Sheng handed over the letter of credence that he had prepared in advance, as well as Princess Xinya's identity token.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw that the other party turned out to be Dayu's most favored princess and her husband, they opened the door and let them in without even looking at them.
"Princess, please come in quickly, Prince Consort. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already instructed that your journey must not be delayed."
Princess Xinya nodded, asked Nina to give some silver to the soldiers guarding the city, and then led everyone towards the Cangwu River.
After Dugu Xin got the news, he rushed over immediately.
It happened that when they arrived, Dugu Xin had already returned with his men.
"You've all been through a long journey, thank you for your hard work. Please come in."
Dugu Xin glanced at Ye Xiaoxiao subtly, and seeing that she looked pretty good, he finally felt relieved.
"You came just in time. We just came down from the mountain, and today the Rat King appeared again."
"It's a pity that this guy is so cunning. We tried many methods but couldn't catch him."
Dugu Xin finished speaking with a hint of apology on his face.
"If there wasn't really no other way, we wouldn't bother you making this trip in person."
Shangguan Lingyun waved his hand, "This matter is of great importance. I am worried about it, so I came here to take a look."
"But fortunately, no large-scale epidemic has been discovered so far, which is a blessing in disguise."
Dugu Xin nodded in agreement, "That's right, it's a good thing we discovered it in time, otherwise, if so many rats came down the mountain together, just to eat and drink, they would cause a lot of damage."
Ye Xiaoxiao waited until everyone had finished their polite exchanges before she slowly spoke.
"Dugu Xin, where is the universal storage box now?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Xin immediately asked Han Yu to bring the box over.
"This box is really strange. It can swallow such a huge earth dragon without any hesitation."
"Besides, it's incredibly hard. I really needed it to catch the Earth Dragon."
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, then took the storage box and looked at it carefully. In fact, she was communicating quickly with the system in her mind.
"System, how do we get the contents of this universal storage box out?"
"Host, you only need to drop a drop of blood, and you can take out the contents at will, just like the system space."
Ye Xiaoxiao knew what was going on and then asked again.
"Then this earth dragon has been in there for so many days without food or water. Is it dead or alive?"
"If I let it out, will it hurt the people here?"
