Chapter 242 Daning is in trouble
Jiang Jiu was really tired along the way.
She drank a bowl of porridge reluctantly, and without even taking a shower, she lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Zhao Zhuoxi still had enough physical strength, so he and Lu Ming simply cleaned up.
After talking about the situation in the forest, everyone went to rest.
This time, Jiang Jiu slept soundly again. When he woke up, a day and a night had passed.
Taohua had already prepared food, and her eyes turned red when she saw Jiang Jiu.
"Princess, you are finally awake. You must be very tired. Eat something quickly and take a hot bath to feel better."
Jiang Jiu was really tired and her feet were covered with blisters.
She ate quickly, took a shower, and while drying her hair, she asked Taohua to find some medicine to treat the minor wounds on her body.
Only after she stepped out of this room did she feel like she had been reborn.
He stretched his body lazily and saw Zhao Zhuoxi, Lu Ming, Xiao Yimo and Chu Yu sitting together in the yard drinking tea.
A joy that I had never experienced before arose spontaneously.
"Momo, Xiaoyu'er, I, Hu Hansan, am back again..."
Upon hearing the voice, Xiao Yimo couldn't help but hold his forehead.
"Jiang Jiu, I'm going to be a father soon, can you please stop calling me by my nickname? Also, Xiao Yu'er is my special name now, you are not allowed to call me that."
Chu Yu just smiled, her Jiang Jiu also came back.
As I laughed, tears couldn't stop flowing.
Jiang Jiu trotted to their side and hugged them both on the left and right.
"I'm back, are you happy?"
Xiao Yimo slapped her arm away in disgust: "Come back quickly, or I'll be exhausted to death. Your man is treating me like a donkey."
Chu Yu held her in her arms and said, "Jiang Jiu, you are finally back. Come, let me take your pulse."
Jiang Jiu consciously stretched out his wrist and spoke sharply.
"I'm not sick. I'm in good health. You don't know how magical that place is. It's also a Feng Shui treasure land. If we have the chance, we must go there again. Maybe we can find the elixir of immortality."
Lu Ming and Zhao Zhuoxi had almost told them everything about Li Ke's departure and what they had seen and heard.
Although Chu Yu and Xiao Yimo didn't believe it, they knew that Jiang Jiu was not
An ordinary person.
Since Jiang Jiu chose to stay, they certainly wanted it more than happy. You know, everything is based on Jiang Jiu's advanced and broad knowledge, which is how they can make their business bigger and stronger.
Xiao Yimo smiled and said, "That has to wait until Chu Yu gives birth to a child, and the people of Wu Village and Yun Village have to agree. You don't know that during the days you were away, the people of Yun Village wanted to eat the high priest and the Wu clan leader."
Jiang Jiu's eyes widened: "On what basis? If it weren't for the people from Yunzhai who kidnapped Bai Yue, we wouldn't have entered the forbidden area to rescue him privately. It's their fault."
Xiao Yimo waved his hand and pointed at Zhao Zhuoxi.
"Thanks to your majesty for letting the people from Yun Village go back, otherwise, Wu Village would have to fight with the people from Yun Village."
Zhao Zhuoxi is the emperor after all, so even if he is from Miao, he has to give him some respect.
The most important thing is that they were the ones who returned safely from the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West.
Since Zhao Zhuoxi and his men did not disturb the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West, nor did they go looking for the elixir of immortality, they were only there to save people, there was no need for them to hold on to it.
The key point is that Zhao Zhuoxi also guessed that the people who attacked them in the woods were also from Yunzhai.
A sneak attack on the emperor is a crime of treason. If the people of Yun Village want to live well, they dare not really turn against the tribe leader Wu Caifeng and the high priest.
Chu Yu had already taken his pulse and nodded: "You are indeed feeling much better than before. After two days of rest, we will set off back."
Lu Ming also said, "It's time to go back. Your Majesty has been away for the past few days, and I don't know if the court is in chaos."
Zhao Zhuoxi smiled and said, "There won't be chaos. With the Prime Minister and his staff here, and the civil and military officials checking each other, how can the court be in chaos?"
Indeed, Emperor Zhao Zhuoxi was a very leisurely person.
At noon, the high priest and Bai Yue insisted on treating Jiang Jiu and the others to a meal.
Because it was Jiang Jiu and his friends who went to save Bai Yue regardless of the danger.
As for Li Ke's identity, Bai Yue also said it was strange, because the people in Yunzhai were not very familiar with Li Ke and only said that he was someone who appeared suddenly.
The people in Yunzhai didn't treat him badly, but that man was clamoring to leave.
The people of Yunzhai said that they had been the keepers of the tomb for generations and that they would never be able to return once they left.
However, Li Ke said that the tombs in this area not only belonged to the Queen Mother of the West, but also to some three-star team or something. He spoke so convincingly that the people in Yunzhai almost believed him.
Moreover, Yunzhai is located in a high geographical location, and Li Ke appeared suddenly. They always felt it was weird, so they did not stop him and let him leave.
Unexpectedly, after leaving, Li Ke accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms in the mountains and almost died.
Thanks to Bai Yue for saving him.
But after the rescue, Li Ke insisted on going to the forbidden area, saying that he could go home from there.
Bai Yue pointed him to a way down the mountain, but Li Ke said it was not possible.
Li Ke took the map, prepared food and really went to the forbidden area. Bai Yue was not kidnapped by him, but after Li Ke entered the forbidden area, she followed him in and wanted to pull him back.
Who knew that Bai Yue lost his way after entering the forbidden area and could only follow Li Ke.
This made the high priest think that Bai Yue was kidnapped by Li Ke and asked Chu Yu for help.
Chu Yu took Jiang Jiu, Zhao Zhuoxi and others back to Miaojiang and Wuzhai.
The reason why Yunzhai and his men launched a surprise attack on Zhao Zhuoxi and his men was because of that light.
According to the historical records of Yunzhai, more than 500 years ago, such a light appeared in the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West, and it was said that a god was about to ascend to heaven.
The people of Yunzhai didn't know what was going on, so they sent people to investigate, but unexpectedly they met Zhao Zhuoxi and Jiang Jiu on their way back.
After trying a few times, he found that Zhao Zhuoxi and his men were very skilled, so he didn't dare to try again.
Because in this dense forest, they didn't know whether it was a monster or a god.
When Zhao Zhuoxi, Jiang Jiu and the others came out, they realized that they had actually visited the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West and returned safely.
The people of Yunzhai themselves did not dare to enter the mausoleum. If it were not for the excellent skills of Zhao Zhuoxi and his men, they would have been like the people before, unable to get out.
After resting for another two days, Zhao Zhuoxi, Jiang Jiu and others packed up and prepared to leave the Wu Village.
Wu Caifeng and the high priest were both reluctant to part with Chu Yu.
Because Chu Yu came back this time to take Bai Yue out to see the world.
The world is peaceful now, and Xiao Yimo and she don't have to worry about money. What they are doing now is how to expand their business.
The high priest also hoped that Bai Yue would leave the witch village, because she could see from Chu Yu's bright smile and a handsome man that Chu Yu was living a very happy life.
But none of them expected that while Zhao Zhuoxi's court was stable, the surrounding countries were in turmoil.
Ever since Zhao Zhuoxi destroyed the Nanli Kingdom with artillery.
Although the south was unified, there were still two countries in the north that were eyeing Daning covetously.
One is the Beidi tribe in the northwest, and the other is the Qiang tribe in the northeast. They were originally vassal states of Daning. When the Queen of Zhou was still in power, the Prime Minister Zhou Xiang actually allowed the Qiang tribe to become independent.
This has planted hidden dangers. Zhao Zhuoxi will not tolerate any sand in his eyes and he wants to unify the world.
