Murong Xiao and Murong Yan each carried two buckets of water and walked towards the medicine garden at a leisurely pace.
The herbs in the medicine garden weren't very tall, and since it was a large area, the garden was easily visible. Therefore, the sentries and guards protecting the garden mostly patrolled the perimeter.
No one could have imagined that someone would dare to steal herbs from the medicine garden so brazenly.
The servants in charge of watering and fertilizing the herb garden were also responsible for weeding the herbs. Every day, they would take a cloth bag and clear away the weeds that had grown in the herb garden that day. This was another opportunity for Murong Xiao, who was stealing the herbs.
Originally, she planned to go to the pharmacy outside to buy some herbs to make poison, but now, with a cloth bag for weeds, she didn't have to be polite at all.
In less than a quarter of an hour, she had stuffed a small cloth bag full.
After Murong Xiao put the precious, unique, out-of-print herbs in the garden that could not be bought outside into his pocket, and then broke the remaining roots of the poison that could not be taken away, the two men each took a bag and swaggered out of the medicine garden.
At the entrance of the medicine garden, a secret sentry appeared and stopped them.
The rules of the medicine garden are extremely strict. Unless it is an important matter, the two medicine slaves are absolutely not allowed to leave the medicine garden.
"What's in your bags? What are you going out to do?"
Murong Xiao and Murong Yan saluted respectfully to the sentry. Murong Yan said, "There are extremely poisonous herbs in here. Because they conflict with the Spirit Grass, Master ordered us to take these herbs to a place away from water sources and wash them bit by bit with Dust-Cleansing Grass. Once the poison is almost washed away, burn them and bury them."
Murong Yan was able to imitate the medicine slave's voice after hearing it once. Although it was not exactly the same, at least no one could hear anything wrong.
The sentry had no idea what herbs she was talking about. Seeing them holding the herb bags far away from him, he immediately jumped away, fearing he would be poisoned by the smell of the herbs.
"Then go quickly and come back quickly."
"Oh, but using Dust Cleansing Grass to cleanse the poisonous herbs will take at least two or three hours."
"Go, go!" the sentry impatiently drove the two away. His "go quickly and come back quickly" was just a catchphrase. These two people were not afraid of poison all day long, but he was scared to death.
After being driven away by the secret sentry, the two men swaggered out of the medicine garden.
"Xiaoxiao, we have so many medicines on hand, it might not be safe to keep them in the mansion."
Murong Xiao was silent for a moment. "Go back to your room first. I'll leave the house right away and hide the things I don't need for the time being."
Murong Yan nodded: "Then you should be careful."
"Don't worry."
After the two parted ways, Murong Xiao watched Murong Yan walk away. He did not leave the house, but went straight back to Yunwu Pavilion.
She had to rush to prepare the medicine to detoxify Qian Yeming. Now it was getting dark and the dinner in the palace would begin soon. There was not much time left for Qian Yeming to visit the Marshal's Mansion.

The stars are bright, the moon is above the willows. Silvery light pours down from the sky, shining through the pavilions and towers, exuding a cool and noble aura, illuminating the earth with a hazy and dreamy beauty.
Murong Xiao stood quietly in the garden. Under the stars, her graceful figure stood alone, making her look even more lonely. Looking at the elongated shadow on the ground, Murong Xiao felt excited and nervous.
Today in the previous life,
