The desert city was extremely hot. It was the first city to enter the desert, and caravans came and went in an endless stream, forming a diverse population.
After all, each country has its own style of dress, and in Saudi Arabia, because it is located in a hot region, their clothing is relatively revealing.
They were more exposed than when they were in the Flower Kingdom.
Women fared slightly better, but it was common to see men walking around shirtless on the street.
Jing Le and the others found an inn to rest and listen to some gossip.
Sipping simple tea, listening to the locals around me gossip.
Jing Le sipped his cheap tea while listening to gossip, quite content.
[Sure enough, wherever there are people, there's gossip. From Sister-in-law Li's affair to Old Li's family losing something, it's quite a lively affair.]
Jingyue's little feet dangled even more happily under the table.
Duan Feibai and the others were used to Jing Le's gossipy nature, and they listened to the surrounding gossip and analyzed the situation.
This is something they, the Dragon Shadow Guards, were required to learn in their early days.
Just then, a young man said to the person next to him, "A few days ago, a notice was posted in the capital saying that they were looking for a doctor who knew medicine to treat the imperial grandson."
"The imperial grandson... alas, I wonder if anyone can save the imperial grandson."
Jing Le then pieced together a rough outline from their conversation.
The 16-year-old grandson of the Saudi royal family suddenly fell into a coma after returning from a trip last month.
Many doctors were consulted without any progress. This grandson of the emperor was the only male heir of the third generation in the Sand Kingdom.
For some reason, the entire royal family was quite large, but the third generation all had daughters, with only one son.
He was groomed to be the future crown prince from a young age, and the imperial grandson lived up to expectations, displaying exceptional intelligence from childhood, which was known throughout the country.
However, this tragic news has deeply affected the entire nation.
The reason so many caravans rushed here was because they were from the countries closest to this place, and upon learning of this, they immediately brought medicinal herbs.
Just like the caravan that Jing Le had Bai Hu steal the documents from, which was a medicinal herb merchant.
[He returned a month ago and suddenly fell into a coma. Could he be our target?]
Jing Le rested his chin on his hand, seriously considering the feasibility of this plan. It seemed they would have to make a trip to the royal city.
Jing Le didn't pay attention to what they said after that.
The next day, Jing Le and his party arrived at the woods outside the royal city.
They must have teleported here instantly, otherwise it would have taken them ten days to half a month to get there, and she didn't have the patience for that.
She should hurry up and finish dealing with her clones before returning to the capital; she was starting to miss her family.
The group drove the carriage into the city. The royal city was much more prosperous than Zhibian Pass, but it was still resource-poor compared to Dayong.
"Go find an inn to put your things away, I'll go over and take a look."
Jing Le pointed to the place where the notice was posted. There were still many people gathered there. As for what was going on inside, they would have to go and see for themselves.
"I'll go with you."
Duan Feibai spoke first, saying that since there were many of them, they didn't need him, a child, to do anything.
"It's better if you two kids have an adult with you. I'll go with you."
Shadow Six spoke first. He was always one to join in the fun, and his eyes lit up for a moment when he saw the commotion ahead.
However, the excuse they gave was utterly ridiculous.
They're saying two kids need an adult to look after them, but are Jing Le and Duan Feibai just ordinary kids? So, is it the adults taking care of the kids, or the kids taking care of the adults?
But nobody cared.
The two children and one adult walked forward, and as they got closer, the voices of the people talking became clearer.
"Didn't the higher-ups say that whoever can cure the imperial grandson will be rewarded with 100,000 taels of gold?"
"Although the reward is very attractive, the situation of the imperial grandson is known to everyone. Even the Imperial Hospital can't do anything about it, so how can we ordinary people do anything?"
"Yes, even if we recruit many talented and exceptional individuals, can the imperial grandson wait?"
"Oh dear, who can argue with that? What are we going to do..."
Taking advantage of his short stature, Jing Le quickly squeezed into the crowd and arrived at the notice.
The rewards offered are really plentiful.
This emperor of the Sand Kingdom is far richer than my father; he casually promised out 100,000 taels of gold.
Unlike Emperor Jing, whose national treasury was practically empty before she arrived.
Later, it was she who opened a shop to replenish the national treasury; otherwise, the annual military pay would have been a headache for Emperor Jing.
Jing Le raised his hand to take the notice, rolled it up, and prepared to go to the palace in a while.
As a result, this scene was witnessed by onlookers, who immediately widened their eyes in astonishment.
"You, you, you, whose kid are you? Don't you know that accepting notices randomly will get you arrested? Put it back right now, put it back!"
One of the burly men looked at Jing Le with a worried expression and ran to her side, trying to take the notice out of her hand and put it back up.
After all, this matter could be a big deal or a small deal; if the brat accepts the notice, only her parents will ultimately suffer.
"Hurry up and stick it back on, hurry up."
The others were also extremely nervous. They looked around and thankfully the soldiers not far away hadn't noticed. Instantly, as if they had planned it, they surrounded Jing Le and signaled the big man to quickly put the notice back up.
"Little ancestor, hurry up and give me the thing, or it will get your parents in trouble if it gets discovered."
As the burly man reached for the notice in Jing Le's hand, he spoke earnestly.
"Uncle, thank you for your concern. I'm not just accepting any offer randomly. My older brother is a very skilled doctor. He can cure the imperial grandson."
Jing Le spoke very loudly, and even the soldiers outside the imperial city heard him.
After all, they frequently checked the notice board, hoping that someone capable would answer the notice and save their imperial grandson.
"What do you know, you little kid? Give it to me now."
When the big man saw the soldiers coming this way, he broke out in a cold sweat and was very worried about Jing Le.
"Big brother, catch it."
Just before the soldiers arrived, Jing Le threw the notice in her hand in an arc, and it landed straight in Ying Liu's hand.
Shadow Six, who was originally watching the play, suddenly became the focus of the crowd.
He was just watching his master being forcibly cared for and secretly enjoying himself, but how did it become his turn the next moment?
At this moment, the soldiers had already approached.
"You accepted the notice."
"Uh, it's me."
Ying Liu knew Jing Le's purpose in accepting the notice, so he naturally knew how to respond.
"Then come with us."
The soldiers had been instructed by the Emperor to bring the notice to the palace immediately if anyone received it, and they would not give up even if there was only the slightest hope.
Subsequently, Jing Le and Duan Feibai, along with the other two, were taken into the palace by soldiers.
Fifteen minutes later, inside the royal palace of the Sand Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the guards outside the city have reported that someone has received a notice claiming to be able to cure the Emperor's grandson."
The old eunuch bowed and reported.
"Bring the person in quickly."
The old emperor, his hair now completely white, said excitedly.
