Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and then she felt her hands being wrapped by a pair of big hands. The chill she had just felt when she thought of the "human experiment" was instantly driven away by a wave of warmth.
It’s Gu Qingchen.
The man said in a low voice, "According to my opinion, sending you back to the capital is the best option now. Ah Li——"
He knew Jiang Li's temper.
If he forcibly sent her away at this time, he was afraid that the girl would charm the guards on the way and then sneak back.
This is something Jiang Li can do.
Therefore, Gu Qingchen had to take it step by step.
He pursed his lips slightly and looked at Jiang Li, his eyes full of conflict and passion.
When you meet those eyes, your heart trembles.
Jiang Li pulled her hand out of Gu Qingchen's palm and gently placed it over his eyes, "Don't look at me like that."
He is the god of war who terrifies his enemies, but why is he showing such soft, puppy eyes? What is he trying to do?
Knowing that Gu Qingchen didn't want her to take any risks, Jiang Li sighed inwardly and said, "The cold poison in your body now only needs the Xuanbing Grass to be completely eliminated. The Xuanbing Grass blooms once every ten years and dissipates as soon as the leaves fall, so I must go there in person. I've already checked, and the location is west of the Mi River."
"If you're worried, I can just go look for the Xuanbing Grass when we get to Mihe River."
At this point, Jiang Li curled her lips, revealing a slightly aggrieved look, "Look, in the final analysis, what I'm worried about is just your health."
Gu Qingchen did not miss the firmness in Jiang Li's tone.
He closed his eyes, held Jiang Li's hand with his backhand, and finally nodded, saying in a deep voice: "Forget it, if you really want to go, then go."
"If anyone dares to touch you, I will kill him."
Jiang Li had never seen such murderous aura on Gu Qingchen before. She was slightly stunned, and stood up as if possessed by a ghost, walked forward and gently hugged the man.
She could feel that Wu Youjin, who almost killed the Queen Mother and him, was like Gu Qingchen's nightmare.
But she also wanted to say that now that she was here, the poison doctor would never again wreak havoc on the world.
As for finding the Black Ice Grass to completely dissolve Gu Qingchen's cold poison, there was no need for such trouble. However, when Jiang Li thought of another method, her face flushed slightly, and then she immediately turned around and shouted to the outside: "Mo Qi, make the arrangements, we will set off today."
We can't delay any longer. If the County Magistrate's Office is related to the Mi River, then if something happens here, it will probably spread over there quickly.

"Brother Wenxuan, the matter of contracting Yaoshan is now left to you."
After spending a few days together, Jiang Li discovered that Hua Wenxuan was a genius in growing medicinal herbs.
Even some of the hard-to-find medicinal herbs she took out from the space, after she briefly explained it, he knew how to grow them in large quantities.
"Don't worry, Princess. I will do my best!"
In order to facilitate subsequent arrangements, Jiang Li chose to reveal his true identity before leaving.
When Hua Wenxuan learned that the princess had handed over her private property to him and asked him to do his best to contract more medicine mountains just to stockpile medicinal materials for the soldiers guarding the border, he finally burst into tears.
If his brother hadn't been in trouble, he would have dreamed of practicing medicine like his father. But his experience as a concubine haunted him like a nightmare, making him afraid to appear in public again.
Now, the princess let him take charge of a major event that would benefit the country and the people. The words that had once been used to criticize him gradually dissipated in that instant, along with the tears of grievance.
So much so that many years later, when Hua Wenxuan became the largest medicinal material merchant in Daning, the identity he was most proud of was still being one of the princess's most capable assistants.
After handing the title deed of the courtyard on the outskirts of the city to Hua Wenxuan, the few of them headed towards the Mi River again.
"Your Majesty, do you feel like someone is following us all the way?"
Not long after the carriage set off, Jiang Li leaned close to Gu Qingchen and whispered.
Jiang Li had this feeling before, but she thought it was someone arranged by the County Magistrate's Office two days ago. But now the County Magistrate's Office has been taken down, and they are already some distance away from Rongcheng County, so she really feels strange.
Gu Qingchen didn't react much when he heard this. If the person who came was really a bad guy, he would have been captured by the secret guards long ago.
Now if I let him chase me, I'm afraid...
“Whoa—”
Mo Qi tightened the reins, "What do you want, Madam?"
Why did the princess suddenly yell "Stop the car" in this desolate place? Mo Qi was startled.
"I see there are woods and a stream over there. Let's go catch two fish and grill them." Jiang Li lifted the car curtain and pointed to the front right.
"If you're hungry, Madam, you can eat some dry food first. It's getting late, and we need to get to the next town as soon as possible."
Mo Qi gestured to Bai Zhi to get some dry food, but Jiang Li disagreed. Instead, she got up and got off the carriage, then pointed at the woods and said something in Mo Qi's ear.
Gu Qingchen shook his head, observed a moment of silence for the people who followed them, then got out of the car and walked into the depths of the forest holding Jiang Li's hand. From a distance, the two looked like a young couple out for fun.
“Wow—it smells so good!”
Jiang Li was surprised. She didn't expect Gu Qingchen's cooking skills to be so amazing. He caught a few fish with just a few moves, and then fiddled with them for a few times, and roasted them until they were so golden and attractive.
After sprinkling the seasonings that Bai Zhi had brought before leaving, Jiang Li blew gently on the hot air, then opened her mouth wide and let out a few humming noises, contentedly enjoying this unique delicacy. She couldn't help but praise, "My husband is so talented!"
This reaction made Gu Qingchen smile even more.
"Got it! Got it!"
Before he had finished eating a fish, Mo Qi ran over excitedly from the direction of the woods.
