The Eighth Prince's guilt is still to be determined, so I don't think he is suitable for the job of transporting grain and grass."
Xuan Tianmo's eyes were almost emitting fire, but Xu Jingyuan was not afraid of him at all. In addition, the seventh prince Xuan Tianhua also said: "Transporting grain is a big deal, father, please think twice."
Emperor Tianwu nodded, looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the Second Prince. The task of transporting grain to the Southern Territory finally fell on the Second Prince Xuan Tianling!
The third day of April was the best time of the year for the capital city, with flowers blooming in spring. But for the southern world, it was hot all year round, and there was no longer any distinction between seasons.
In the Feng Mansion in Lanzhou, Fu Ya sat in her own courtyard, eating the fruits sent by the prefect's wife and drinking sour plum soup made from ice cubes stored in the cellar, but she still felt the heat was unbearable and her heart was very agitated.
Yao couldn't bear to see her daughter suffer, so she asked four maids to gather in a circle and fan Fu Ya. She also wiped the sweat off Fu Ya's forehead with a handkerchief, and advised her, "Be patient. If it really doesn't work, we won't live in Lanzhou anymore, right? As long as you're with mother, it doesn't matter where we live."
Fu Ya shook her head helplessly, "It's okay, mother, I can still bear it." This is not a question of whether to bear it or not. They didn't come to the Southern Realm to live, but to perform tasks for the Eighth Prince. Only if the task is performed well and the results are seen, can they get some benefits from the Eighth Prince one day in the future. And once the Eighth Prince can successfully deal with the Ninth Prince and Feng Yuheng, she will be the real Princess Ji'an, and she will be rich and worry-free for the rest of her life.
Someone came hurriedly from the front yard to report: "Princess, Fang Rujiang, the drug dealer who opened Baicaotang with you, is here again. He is at the door and wants to see you no matter what."
Yao frowned when she heard this: "Didn't I tell you to announce to the public that Ah Heng had a heat stroke and was not allowed to go out or see guests? Why is that person so ungrateful?"
The person who came to report back said: "The news has spread, but the man brought medicinal herbs in his hand and said he was here to cool the princess down."
Fu Ya was so angry that she threw the cup of sour plum juice and stood up suddenly. Yao thought she was going to meet someone and hurried to tidy up her clothes, but Fu Ya said, "Mother, please sit down for a while. I will go talk to you." After that, she hurried to Feng Jinyuan's study.
Yao looked at Fu Ya's back, and she felt empty in her heart, as if her daughter would soon leave her. She was right in front of her, but she couldn't catch her. The feeling of drifting further and further away from Feng Yuheng in the capital came back to her, and Yao was very worried.
Feng Jinyuan also received the news that Fang Rujiang had come to the mansion again in the study. Seeing Fu Ya rushing over, he said helplessly, "If it doesn't work, then let's meet! Baicaotang has been open for a while, and you have been avoiding showing up. Yesterday, I walked on the street and heard a lot of people talking about it. Some people said that the Baicaotang opened by Princess Ji'an in Lanzhou is too different from the one in the capital, and it looks like a fake. I think it's time to show up and reassure people. Lord Ji has sent people to the Baicaotang in other provinces to buy those special pills early in the morning. I believe they will be back soon."
Fu Ya had no choice but to follow Feng Jinyuan to the front yard and receive Fang Rujiang in the square hall.
The man was very polite when he saw Fu Ya. Hearing that she had caught a heat stroke, he asked about her health and brought her some herbs to relieve the heat. However, as soon as he put the herbs on the table, Fang Rujiang said, "These are all to be boiled into Chinese medicinal soup. I don't think the princess would take such medicine. The good medicine in Baicao Hall has been gone for a few days, and the princess has not been to Baicao Hall since it opened. Recently, the people have been gathering at Baicao Hall to make trouble, so I came here this time in the hope that the princess can come to Baicao Hall to sit down, and in the hope that the princess can replenish the missing medicine. After all, our Baicao Hall is mainly famous for its special medicines, don't you think?"
Fu Ya stroked her forehead, feeling a headache...
